‘SoNA all’
Hello again my dear readers. Have you ever caught yourself staring at beautiful couples holding hands, happily enjoying their lives, worry-free, as if the world was spinning round and round just for them, and you simply said to yourself: “Sana all.” Or maybe you recently saw your old friend who lost so much weight after moving on and going through so much in life and you whispered to yourself: “Sana all.” Well, you’re not alone. Oftentimes we crave something we want but which we cannot have (yet), or maybe we’re just really optimistic that someday, somehow, we will also have our time to enjoy these things that we crave, because these are things that we cannot buy and have to work hard for to get. It will require time and patience and, most of all, hard work. Things worth having are really worth waiting for. Speaking of worth having, well, I’m pretty sure you will not be deprived of our topic for today because, hey, it is Thirstday again and that means we get to talk about the latest State of the Nation Address or SoNA of PBBM. With all the updates and exciting plans this administration has in store for our beloved country, I say with all high hopes: “SoNA all” Well, that is the beauty of democracy you can express your opinions freely. But before that, did you know that the longest SoNA was delivered by former President Rodrigo Duterte which clocked two hours and 45 minutes? The shortest SoNA was delivered by Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, now the Pampanga 2nd District representative, which took only 25 minutes; while former President Noynoy Aquino delivered the first SoNA in Filipino, “Kayo ang Boss ko,” if you may recall. Going back to the SoNA of President BBM, comments abound in different news outlets and on social media. Well, that is the beauty of democracy — you can express your opinions freely. Foremost in the President’s SoNA was the food security program aimed at putting food on the table of every household. This is a much-needed program if we are to protect our young population from malnutrition, as hunger threatens not only our country but is currently a worldwide problem. With no less than the President at the helm of the Department of Agriculture or DA, the public expects DA officials to fully live up to the aims set by PBBM. Education as a long-term tool and solution for almost all of the challenges we face found its way into the SoNA and was much emphasized by PBBM. With VP Sara piloting the Department of Education, all DepEd officials as co-pilots must steer the department to achieve the progressive education we all aspire for our youth. Infrastructure development, particularly focusing on the transport system with emphasis on seaports, airports, and road networks, is on the priority list of the President. This will provide easy access for every Juan as they work and travel or for every Nena and Pilar as they buy their daily needs nearby or shop elsewhere. Tourism will also get a boost as many destinations open and become accessible to local and foreign travelers and, yes, such movement of people will spur economic activity that will spell renewed income for local folk and added revenue for the government. Disaster preparedness and resilience is the cornerstone of a sound program to mitigate the effects of disasters. The President outlined fully the desire to achieve resilience and be totally prepared against disasters, whether man-made or natural. An average of twenty typhoons a year visit our country, which is in the “ring of fire,” an imaginary global ring of islands and land masses where volcanoes abound and earthquakes frequently emanate. Well, better watch National Geographic or read books! Nose bleed. Well, it is not only typhoons and the “ring of fire” that we should worry about, hence, the President underlined the plan for a new amnesty program for former rebels who returned to the fold of the law and to encourage the remnants of the armed communist group to embrace peace and be productive citizens of mainstream society. The priority legislative agenda of the President was laid out precisely. Foremost are the essential tax measures under the Medium-Term Fiscal Framework, such as: An excise tax on single-use plastics; VAT on digital services; rationalization of mining fiscal regime; motor vehicle user’s charge/road user tax, and the Military and Uniformed Personnel pension. The President enjoined Congress to act on the following: Amendment of the Fisheries Code; amendment of the Anti-Agricultural Smuggling Act; Amendment of the Cooperative Code; New Government Procurement Law; New Government Auditing Code; Anti-financial accounts scamming; Tatak-Pinoy law; The Blue Economy law; Ease of paying taxes; LGU income classification; and the Philippine Immigration Act. Congress is expected to act on these and make them more responsive to the current fortunes of time, especially with the fast pace of technology. Looking back and then focusing our eyes on the immediate future, we should all be hopeful for the plans the President laid out, especially on food security, education, infrastructure development, disaster preparedness, and all others which directly affect our daily lives, and be part of it, not because we are red, green, blue, yellow or whatever color of the rainbow or even a Power Ranger. Just as Master Rapper Francis M. said in his famous song: “Every color, every hue is represented by me and you, take a slide on the slope, take a look at the kaleidoscope..,” but because the current skipper needs all hands on deck and most importantly... we are all in the same boat.

Bird ban
African penguins are an endangered species. From a population of 50,000 mating pairs inhabiting the shorelines of South Africa and Namibia 30 years ago, their number has dropped to 10,000 pairs, Africa News reported. In South Africa, the species have colonies on Bird Island, about 60 kilometers off the town of Gqeberha, formerly known as Port Elizabeth. Many live in rock cracks after losing their natural nests made of guano to poachers who sell it as fertilizer. Without a nest, young, featherless penguins are susceptible to drowning and hypothermia. Survivors are rescued, treated, and fed by veterinarians and volunteers of the Southern African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds. Once the penguins recover at its rehabilitation clinic in Gqeberha, the birds are returned to the wild. Meanwhile, in central Florida, USA, parents, students, and two authors are spearheading the return of “three penguins” that were banned by the Lake County school district. They sued local education officials before the US District Court for Middle Florida on 20 June for allegedly violating the First Amendment of the Constitution and demanded the recall of the ban reportedly instigated by the state governor through the so-called Don’t Say Gay law. In the lawsuit, authors Peter Parnell and Justin Richardson invoked their right to freedom of expression and protection against censorship. The banned penguins are fictional characters in the children’s storybook, “And Tango Makes Three.” The book written by Parnell and Richardson is about two male penguins at New York City’s Central Park Zoo that adopted a baby penguin named Tango after its mother died. The ban imposed last year disallowed students from kindergarten through third grade from reading the book published in 2005, on the ground that sexual orientation and gender identity instruction are inappropriate for such young children, according to NBC News.

Pride and prejudice
The lobby by certain segments of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender or LGBT community for an amendment to the Family Code to allow same-sex marriage has not reached critical mass, due to the influence of religious organizations whose doctrines forbid homosexuality based on biblical teachings. Never mind that a lot of Catholic priests appear to be gay. Thus, the enactment of a law allowing gay marriage may not be feasible in the foreseeable future. The main purpose of the proponents of gay marriage is — aside from recognition under the law — the protection of the civil rights of the partners in a same-sex relationship as it pertains to assets and properties. Absent any law on gay marriage, however, the provisions of the Family Code on property relations between married couples cannot apply. But there is a middle ground whereby the law can provide a clear set of rules on property relations between those engaged in a same-sex relationship. That is by extending the provisions of Chapter 7, Article 147 of the Family Code to certain types of gay relationships. The said provision now reads: “When a man and a woman who are capacitated to marry each other live exclusively with each other as husband and wife without the benefit of marriage or under a void marriage, their wages and salaries shall be owned by them in equal shares and the property acquired by both of them through their work or industry shall be governed by the rules on co-ownership.” “In the absence of proof to the contrary, properties acquired while they lived together shall be presumed to have been obtained by their joint efforts, work, or industry, and shall be owned by them in equal shares. For purposes of this Article, a party who did not participate in the acquisition by the other party of any property shall be deemed to have contributed jointly to the acquisition thereof if the former’s efforts consisted in the care and maintenance of the family and the household.” “Neither party can encumber or dispose of, by acts inter vivos, his or her share in the property acquired during cohabitation and owned in common, without the consent of the other, until after the termination of their cohabitation. xxx (144a)” The provisions were meant to apply to heterosexual unions commonly called “live-in” relationships. It should be easy to amend it to make the provisions apply to homosexual relationships by simply substituting the phrase “a man and a woman” for “two persons,” to give the same level of unambiguous rules in cases of assets amassed during same-sex cohabitation. Of course, the said legal proviso should not be made to apply to all sorts of gay relationships. By analogy, the homosexual relationship: Must be exclusive, meaning that for the duration of the relationship, neither of the parties must have been cohabiting with any other partner; Must be between members of the same sex who are both legally capacitated to marry each other; and Must cover only properties acquired during the actual relationship and exclude pre-existing properties. The enactment of an amendatory law that will extend it to same-sex relationships will surely go a long way, not only in avoiding misunderstandings after such a union has ended but in giving a measure of legitimacy to same-sex relationships which, at present, appears to be outside the pale of the law. Our lawmakers should seriously consider such an amendment as one more step in giving legal safeguards to the LGBT sector, which has come to represent a significant segment of society. This will avoid some of the prejudice associated with such relationships. Getchikola? (Atty. Topacio was one of those instrumental in helping the party-list group Ladlad, the world’s first-ever political party composed of homosexuals and bisexuals headed by Prof. Danton Remoto, draft, and lobby for legislation that granted greater rights to lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgender people. On 4 April 2013, during a Ladlad fund-raising affair at the Rembrandt Hotel, Topacio was proclaimed by the group’s leadership as the country’s first “Honorary Gay.”) The post Pride and prejudice appeared first on Daily Tribune......»»
DENR-BMB holds 25th Philippine Eagle Week celebration
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources observed the 25th Philippine Eagle Week from 4 to 10 June through its Biodiversity Management Bureau. The event was an occasion to look back at the successes in conserving the iconic and critically endangered Philippine eagle during a quarter of a century, but, as DENR Assistant Secretary and concurrent BMB Director Marcial Amaro Jr. said, the celebration was also a reminder that there is more work to be done to ensure the survival and viability of the prized raptor often described as “national treasure.” PEW is celebrated every 4-10 June of each year in accordance with Presidential Proclamation No. 79, series of 1999, to educate the public on the importance and conservation of the country’s national bird , which is considered one of the largest and most powerful among forest raptors in the world. The Philippine eagle (scientific name Pithecophaga jefferyi) is continually being threatened by hunting and loss of habitat. "By conserving our national patrimony and strengthening our advocacies, we are able to improve and harmonize conservation efforts to put forward strategies and to curb the direct and indirect threats to Philippine eagle populations through relevant conservation actions concerning habitat restoration, law enforcement, management of captive and wild populations, research and conservation education,” said Amaro. This year’s PEW theme, “Unity in Action: Achieving success together,” was a call to all Filipinos to protect forest habitats to conserve future generations of Philippine eagles and their territories, and allow new generations to thrive and co-exist with other threatened wildlife. “The habitats conserved locally and protected by communities significantly contribute to environmental stability and security of human well-being, in the looming threats of climate change,” Amaro said. The BMB lined up several activities to celebrate PEW from 6 to 9 June at the Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife Center in Quezon City. Philippine Eagle Foundation Executive Director Dennis Salvador and Maestro Fernando Sena, the father of Philippine Art Workshops, were among those who kicked off the four-day celebration. One of the highlights of the event was an art exhibit dubbed “Isang Libong Obra Para Sa Agila,” organized by BMB and PEF in collaboration with the Philippine Fauna Art Society, Buenas Artes Art Facility and Biodiversity Finance Initiative Philippines. It showcased art works depicting the Philippine eagle by Filipino artists, who even paid a registration fee that would be donated for the installation of a water system in a community that helps protect a Philippine eagle habitat in Davao City. There were also art workshops conducted by the Buenas Artes and PhilFAS; an audio-video presentation on Philippine eagle conservation; and an interactive presentation called “Fly Malaya Fly,” which chronicled the love of a mother eagle for her baby eaglet. Special prizes were given to participants whose artworks best illustrated the Philippine eagle. In September last year, DENR Secretary Antonia Loyzaga appealed to lawmakers to prioritize the passage of proposed measures to strengthen Republic Act 9147 or the Wildlife Resources Conservation and Protection Act during the joint hearing of the Committees on Environment, Natural Resources and Climate Change; on Finance; on Sustainable Development Goals, Innovation and Futures Thinking; and on Ways and Means. According to Loyzaga, the support of lawmakers in the amendment of RA 9147 is crucial in advancing collective efforts and initiatives to sustainably manage the country’s wildlife resources. The amendment of RA 9147 is in line with the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Targets 13, 14 and 15 (Climate Action, Life Below Water and Life on Land) that call for urgent and significant actions to reduce the degradation of natural habitats and halt the loss of biodiversity, she added. In July 2022, Loyzaga — together with PEF ED Salvador — met with Dr. Robert Kennedy, a renowned ornithologist and pioneer advocate on Philippine eagle research and conservation, for possible collaboration to help save the Philippine eagle. The Philippine eagle is endemic to the Philippines and is the largest forest raptor in the country. Found in the islands of Luzon, Samar, Leyte and Mindanao, the majestic bird has been classified as critically endangered under Department Administrative Order 2019-09 or the Updated National List of Threatened Philippine Fauna and Their Categories, and by the International Union for Conservation of Nature.

Comelec pressed on slow pace against nuisance petitions
The Commission on Elections was asked on Monday about the slow pace in deciding the nuisance petition related to the Negros Oriental gubernatorial race between the late Governor Roel Degamo, his rival and former Governor Pryde Henry Teves and a certain Ruel Degamo, who was deemed a nuisance candidate. In a Senate hearing on the assassination of Governor Degamo, Comelec chairman George Erwin Garcia said the delayed ruling in the petition filed by Degamo to declare a certain "Ruel Degamo" a nuisance candidate is due to the lack of composition within the Comelec En Banc at the time. The delay referred to the period in October 2021 when Degamo filed a nuisance petition against "Ruel Degamo", whose real name is Grego Gaudia, up until 1 September last year when the poll body finally decided to declare the latter Degamo a nuisance candidate. Before the finality of the decision that declared Ruel Degamo a nuisance candidate, only four of the seven Comelec commissioners were still in their positions: Commissioners Socorro Inting, Marlon Casquejo, Aimee Ferolino and Rey Bulay. Garcia said that by the time of the decision, the vote was 2-2, which meant there should be a tie-breaker. He was not able to make his vote final until after his appointment and confirmation. “A decision was not immediately made by the En Banc because I and two of our other commissioners hadn't been appointed yet. The resolution was set aside. The voting among the four remaining commissioners was 2-2. It was only when yours truly was appointed that I broke the tie in favor of Gov. Degamo,” said Garcia. Garcia also cited the volume of nuisance cases piling up with the Comelec, while the agency also has to respond to electoral petitions such as disqualification cases. He said there are 29 remaining nuisance cases on top of more than a thousand electoral disqualification cases pending before the poll body. He said the poll body is determined to resolve all nuisance petitions before the next election, and push to penalize nuisance candidacies in the future. “We have been pushing for the amendment of Section 69 of the Omnibus Election Code that defines nuisance candidates. We should criminalize nuisance candidacies. It should be criminalized either with imprisonment or fine, and perpetual disqualification from public office,” Garcia said. “If there is conspiracy, everyone involved should likewise be charged for misrepresentation of perjury, but at the same time, for the filing of nuisance candidacies,” he added. In response, Senator Risa Hontiveros welcomed the proposals by the Comelec, but said the measures could have been done earlier. She previously called the poll body’s slow process "ineffective and inefficient", which causes vindictiveness among political candidates. “I hope that we have a clear vision on this. We could have done this in the case of Gov. Degamo. Maybe he’ll still be alive by then,” Hontiveros said. Senator Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa also vowed that the Senate will move on the proposed changes in the Omnibus Election Code, which is currently being heard in the Upper Chamber. “I hope that before the 2025 elections, your suggestion on the amendment of the provision on the Omnibus Election Code could be amended. Our lawmakers here are listening. Let’s work on this,” he said. The post Comelec pressed on slow pace against nuisance petitions appeared first on Daily Tribune......»»
Some job orders being used as ‘legal’ vote-buying – Lente
Poll watchdog Legal Network for Truthful Elections (Lente) disclosed on Wednesday, Oct. 26 that some job orders as a form of “legal” vote-buying by functioning as coordinators for purposes of electoral campaigns. Indelible ink is applied to a voter’s finger (MB FIle Photo) This finding was part of Lente’s 12-week monitoring effort on the Abuse of State Resources (ASR) which according to the poll watchdog, is an overlooked form of political corruption in the Philippines. Lente said that candidates or political parties “unduly” utilize official powers and government resources to gain electoral advantage. ASR involves different types of abuse which include abuse of financial resources, institutional resources, regulatory/legal resources, and coercive/enforcement resources. Lente explained that over the course of their research, it learned the use of some job orders as a form of “legal” vote-buying. It added that under the Local Government Code, the local chief executives have the power to engage and hire job order personnel as early as a year prior to elections. Due to this, part of the proposed recommendations of Lente in relation with this issue is the amendment of Section 261 (j) of the Omnibus Election Code to establish a mechanism for command responsibility in so far as the local chief executive /mayor is concerned, in the event that the perpetrator of ASR is a local government employee, or under a job order contract. It also seeks the amendment of Comelec-CSC Joint Circular No. 1 S. 2016 or the Advisory on Electioneering and Partisan Political Activities to include job orders under the prohibition on engaging with Electioneering and Partisan Political Activities. It also proposes a further study be conducted regarding the practice of some local government units using the provisions in Local Economic Enterprise to justify mass hiring of job order casuals. “The abuse of institutional resources pertains to the misuse of a state’s physical resources such as infrastructures and vehicles,” Lente said in a statement. “Among the 127 voter respondents interviewed, only 25 percent observed ASR in their respective areas and their observation involved incumbent candidates who utilized government vehicles to transport supporters to campaign sorties and to distribute campaign materials within the locality. Likewise, the community leaders made a similar observation,” it added. On the other hand, Lente bared that abuse of financial resources usually takes the form of campaigns veiled as a distribution of social services. it mentioned that this is a more challenging proposition with respect to ASR, pertaining to the practice of muddling social services and campaigns. “A number of respondents revealed that the most common observations in relation to this type of abuse is the presence of politicians during distribution of ayuda by DSWD and other government programs such as DOLE-TUPAd,” the poll watchdog said. Unfortunately, Lente stated that the general public had a hard time differentiating between legitimate social services and ASR by incumbent officials......»»
