Dacer loses political grip on Puntod: ex-vice mayor By NITZ ARANCON By NITZ Correspondent
DACER
FORMER councilor Alexander Dacer’s two-year absence from local politics loosened his grip on voterich Puntod, the baran-
gay that served as his decades-old political career’s launchpad, a former vice mayor said on Wednesday. Wednesday. Dacer, one of the most loyal political lieutenants of ex-mayor Vicente Ema-
no, lost in Puntod’s race for barangay chairmanship in Monday’s elections. The former president of the Association of Barangay Councils here and councilor lost to Rixie Tinampay. Tinampay.
Former vice mayor Antonio Soriano said Dacer was virtually out of the political scene since 2016, 2016, and this may have factored in his defeat in Puntod, once the political bailiwick
of the Emano-led Padayon Pilipino. But Soriano noted that Tinampay also had his strengths: he is a “lumad” of Puntod where he served See LOSES LOSES/p.7 /p.7

DAVAO City — The City Government of Davao needs to rst ascertain the boundaries of some illegal mountain resorts operating in Marilog District before it could determine appro priate actions actions it could could take against delinquent resort owners. City Administrator Zuleika Lopez, in an interview said, she has yet receive the reports of the technical working groups consisting of representatives from the City Tourism Ofce, DeDe partment partm ent of Tourism, Tourism, City Environment and Natural Resources, Department of Environment of Natural Resources, and City Assessors’ Ofce. She said there were dif-
ferent TWGs deployed to Marilog that conducted inspections and assessments of the compliance of all the resorts in the area to the guidelines established by government agencies, most especially the tax collection. Lopez said one of the pri mary issu es incl uded the locations of the illegal mountain resorts and that they would still have to ascertain if those resorts are within the jurisdiction of the city before collecting taxes. “The city tourism group is looking into it but I understand there are still side issues as to matters of ownership because there are certain areas in Marilog
that do not belong to the City,” she added. The representatives from Cenro and DENR are also looking into the resorts’ environmental compliance, including cleanliness and sanitation, Lopez said. “For a while now, it’s been observed that there are several establishments sprouting in the area,” she added. Lopez said she is awaiting submission of report on the compliance of the resorts owners on the 2013 Comprehensive Comprehensi ve Land Use Plan (Clup). On March 16, Councilor Al Ryan Alejandre said resort owners will not be issued business permits if they are located in the
forest zone as identied in the Clup. Of the 29 establishments monitored in Marilog, only two have business permits – Seagull Mountain Resort and Hill 88 Hideaway. Alejandre added that the City Treasurer’s Ofce alerted him that most of these establishments are not registered with the Business Bureau, after photos of travellers taken in Marilog have circulated on social media He assured that the local government would immediately take action on this issue, saying it is detrimental to the local economy for the revenue losses.

Watch what happens if you dismiss your learners at the same time for recess, for lunch, or at the end of the day. It surely sickens you seeing chaos in the classroom. It may also stir your emotions hearing noises as a result of crowding and pushing at the doorway or an elbow in someone’s eye and running in the hallway. Rose (1994) suggested ways to avoid conict between pupils or students at dismissal time. Sending them of according the to the creative criteria listed may ease you from aches. These are the following: 13. Number of older sisters 1. Month in which they were born. 14. Number of older brothers 2. Beginning letter of middle name. 15. Number of younger sisters 3. Number of vowels in rst name. 16. Number of younger brothers 4. First letter in middle name. 5. Number of syllables in last name. 17. Type of pet 18. Number of pets 6. Color of pants or skirt or dress 19. Place they have visited 7. Color of top dress 20. Television series they are watching 8. Length of hair 21. Movies they have seen 9. Beginning letter of father’s name 10. What they ate for breakfast 22. Favorite color 23. Favorite ower ower 11. What they will have for lunch 24. Favorite spots game 12. Number of children in t he family
What things in life cause behaviors in young people which others nd irritable and unacceptable? Some children may have personality problems that affect the way they handle problems and the way in which other people respond to them. They may have been born with difcult temperaments which create or contribute to their difculties in relating to other people, and which result in behaviors such as noisiness, aggressiveness,, and disobedience. aggressiveness They may have a difcult family situation – relationship between them and their parents might have deteriorated to such an extent that they may not be able to deal with problems that arise. They may have experienced an unhappy life with family breakup. Factors such as the increasing number of children in one parent families or with step parents, the amount of time parents are able to spend with them, and nancial pressures may all be signicant factors to difcult behavior in some young people. They may have deprived or unstable background. In some cases, their parents may be uninterested in what they do, unloving, intolerant, and inappropriately or harshly punitive. Low self-esteem often lies as the root of problem behaviour. Often times, they have failed at school and so may have low self-esteem and self-condence. They go on to use violence themselves, because they do not know any other way to express their feelings and have never learned to communicate in other ways. Understanding of these causes of misbehaviour may lead to the proper way of dealing with children behaving in ways which we nd unacceptable and intolerable. Children cannot live without love. They need to be touched, cuddled, rocked, and given positive attention for them to develop properly. They need to have their we could “Love Cups” always lled to overowing. The love cup principle makes the relationship between love and misbehaviour more graphic. Children are like cups. When they are lled overowing, they have enough love to give away; they can be loving to you and others, and they will tend to behave in an acceptable manner.
Try any of these in letting them go for you to have a good day, too.

New village chair nabbed for shabu possession KIDAPAWAN City — Operatives of the Philip pi ne Dr ug En fo rce men t Agency arrested a newly pro cla ime d cha irm an of a barangay in Makilala, North Cotabato after t hey recovered sachets of sus pected illegal drugs when they raided his house. PDEA agents, mostly coming from the regional headquarters based in Koro-
nadal City, said Melvin Ocay Fortajada is included in the list of narco-politicians operating in North Cotabato. His name, however, was not among those listed in the document released by PDEA weeks before the barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections. “Even though he wasn’t in the PDEA list that our agency published weeks
ago, Fortajada has long been included in our watch list,” a PDEA agent said. Fortajada, when interviewed by Catholic-ran dxND, admitted having yielded to authorities when police intens intensied ied their “Op “Op-eration Tokhang” in 2016. A self-confessed drug user, he surrendered to Makilala Mayor Rudy Caoagdan.
Partnership saves Soligao Creek
During the raid on Wednesday, PDEA operatives and their agents recovered from Fortajada’s house ve sachets of sussus pected shabu and several bullets from a pistol. The order to search the house of Fortajada on possible possession of drugs, firearms, and explosives was issued on May 10 by Judge Alandrex Betoya of
the Regional Trial Court in Kabacan, North Cotabato. The suspect’s family cried foul and accused PDEA operatives of “planting” the evidence against the barangay chairman. Fortajada’s wife told dxND that the night before the raid, she checked on the sling bag owned by her husband but did not nd any trace of shabu inside.

REVIVE IT AGAIN. Soligao creek in Villanueva, Misamis Oriental, through the help of FDC Misamis Power Corporation and DENR-10, will soon be restored back to its previous state –– clean and home to different marine species. Supplied photo
A TRIPARTITE partnership between the local government of Villanueva in Misamis Oriental, the Environmental Management Bureau (EMB-10) and FDC Misamis Power Cor poration (FDC Misamis), was purposely established to save the town’s Soligao creek through the “Adoptan- Estero” program. In a recently-inked memorandum of agreement, the proposed restoration and rehabilitation of Soligao creek will utilize the latest and most environment-friendly methods on river system rehabilitation. Soligao creek, situated within the boundaries of bara ngay s Daya wan and Poblacion 2 in Villanueva town, was once a source of crystal-clear water flow-
ing from perennial water spring. It is also home to fresh water sh, shellsh, and crustaceans. However, due to the town’s rapid industrialization population growth, and indiscriminate waste disposal, Soligao creek has turned into a drainage canal. Lamentable but redeemable, was how FDC Misamis Plant Manager Luis Lagarnia described the current state of Soligao creek. “Recognizing the creek’s unwell state, the management of FDC Misamis, didn’t hesitate to get involved in the proposed R&R of the creek.” “We want to see Soligao creek alive again for the benet of the next gengeneration,” Lagarnia said. Five villages in Villanueva will directly benet
from the project. These include barangays Dayawan, Katipunan, Poblacion 1 and 2 and Looc. FDC Misamis President and CEO Mr. Juan Eugenio Roxas believes that reviving the creek brings multiple social benets. “Clearing Soligao creek from pollutants will cause great impact on people’s health and food security,” said Roxas. While establishment of park buffer and easement zones and development of an eco-tourism site along the creek’s shoulders will soon follow. “What a laudable project aimed at helping the environment by saving a ‘dying’ river,” said EMB Regional Ofce 10 DirecDirector Sabdullah Abubacar.

Poll safety protocols remain in force until May 21 TANDAG City — High ranking ofcials of the Armed Forces of the Philippines in Caraga Region are in unison with the idea that tighter poll security measures will have to remain in force until the end of the election period on May 21.

NAAWAN, Misamis NAAW Misamis Oriental – May 11, 11, 2018 will go down in history as a day of infamy in the country’s judiciary.. judiciary On this day, the Su preme Court decided decided 8-6 to remove its own Chief Justice on a quo warranto petition led by the Solicitor Solicitor General of the governWilliam Adan ment of the Republic of the Philippines. We may recall that nine out of the 14 sitting justices of the Supreme Court joined last last March the detractors detractors of CJ Sereno in demanding her resignation. Thus, in deciding on May 11, 2018, to remove the Chief Magistrate from her post, the SC cannot be said said to be imparimpartial and objective, a basic requirement in dispensing justice. A judge should not only be presumed independent, impartial and objective to decide on a case but in actual behavior must be, so as not to derail due process. If from the start the majority of the justices were were already after her her removal by resignation, resignation, and the the quo warranto

petition before before them was about her removal, too, then their independence, impartiality impartialit y and objectivit objectivity y were tainted if not compromised. This notwithstanding, they tried and decided to remove her. Due process was, thus, blatantly trampled upon by the very authority that is supposed to protect and uphold it. It was a historic miscarriage of justice. The said justices could have volunteered to inhibit themselves so that the integrity of the court could not be held suspect. Considering the power politic preceding the event, it should should have been been the best thing to do. It is everybody’s knowledge that the President was mad at the Chief Magistrate when she insinuated that the Palace was behind SG Calida’s ling of the quo warranto petition against her. The furious President President thereupon declared declared war on the Chief Magistrate and vowed to take steps to remove her. PRRD minced no words in expressing his anger sayings: “Ikaw Sereno, sinabi ko na sa ‘yo hindi ako nakialam (I’m telling you, Sereno, that I didn’t meddle). If you are insisting, then count See ADAN/p.7
How important is the barangay election? THE barangay elections is not just that important.. It is the life blood of the important smallest set of governPlateau’s Voice ment of the Republic of the Philippines. Consider my barangay known as Barangay Don Paulino in Dapa, Surigao del Norte. Even before I was born, that barangay site was already Cesar Gorillo donated by the late Fulgencio Ruaya, son of Don Paulino Ruaya for which our barrio got its name. This is a part of their coconut land right beside the seashore. The The donor later ran as mayor of Dapa and won. His son took over the management of their property and when he died, another took over and is now the one managing the whole area. Allegedly, there was a deed of donation, but a series of imbecile barangay chairpersons took over the barrio and none of them even gave a hoot as to the status of all the residential lots occupied by the barrio barrio people. Tech Technically nically,, the whole barrio is still in the hands of these
people because there has never never been a transfer of any lot to the occupants because the deed of donation donation was never worked out. Even my own big house has no residential tax declaration on the lot in which my house stands. As a result of this very anomalous situation, the one managing the whole coconut area, including their relatives, allegedly had a grand time terrorizing lot owners who were not for their favored candidate. And a powerful politician in the town is their relative, and the the politician’ss candidates were politician’ were endorsed by by them, and those who did not vote were warned, “No vote, ibot.” And ibot.” And many houses have been pulled out after they were found out to have voted for the candidates who were not their choice. Then a candidate came and vowed to work on the execution of the alleged deed of donation, if ever this exists, so that the present lot owners can have their own tax declarations or even titles on the lots on which their houses stand. Many of the occupants have made second payments because because according to the lot See GORILLO/p.7
The real winners CONRATULATIONS to many, and betbe tter luck next time to some others. A total of 80 new Hapsay na bai! and recycled barangay chairpersons and 560 barangay councilors councilors will have successfully hurdled the elections last Monday. Sincerest congratulations to those who, without Egay Uy buying votes, votes, won the the elections. You really won that election. There appears to be a snowballing call for voters to refrain from selling their votes to, according to some, the demons. Voters have become more conscious that selling and buying of votes are election offenses that could send the offenders to jail for up to six years. And yet, there have been reports that votes were still sold and bought at

amounts that were even higher than before. A group of candidates was reported to have bought votes at a total of P1,300 per voter. voter. Another voter said he earned P3 thousand not because he worked that day but because his and his family’ family’ss votes were bought by candidates. Admittedly, curbing this illegal practice of mustering votes to get to ofce is difcult. The Comelec and other other groups (XUHS ’70, PPCRV, Social Action Center, etc.) may have already been exasperated campaigning against this wicked practice of buying votes. To some vote sellers, it’s “la-uya na gud ni, Sir.” To some others, it’s “ato ning dawaton kay kwarta ra man gihapon nis katawhan.” katawhan.” And then there are those who say, “Dawat kwarta, botar konsensya.” The problem with this is once money is received by the voter, See UY/p.7
FACEBOOK will soon have a dating feature and Mark Zuckerberg promised it will give the hopeless romantic “meaningful, long-term Ms. Behavin’ relationships” and it’s “not just for hookups.” Should Zuckerberg x some problems rst, such as protectprotect ing users’ data, instead of hopping from one feature to another? But Netnet that’s exactly how some Camomot people behave behave in their romantic relationships, by hopping from one partner to the next, treating it as a game. And there are people who treat the barangay elections elections as a game: game: Baran Baran gay ra bitaw na. But not if it’s Cagayan de Oro’s Nazareth where this year’s campaign season became a déjà vu of the 2013 congressional elections. DeDe nitely a perfect example of the saying, “The more things change, the more they stay the same.” It was indeed a matter of kaabag versus babag, borrowing the words of Mayor Oscar Moreno but I’m not sure of what he was describing in last Monday’s “Ang Cagayan de Oro Kagahapon, Karon ug Ugma” with “Holistic Approach Towards a DrugFree Society” as the topic. The internet was buffering and loading as usual and I could hardly catch up with the panel’s discussion. Still, the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the Philippine National Police described the recent barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections as generally peaceful. Had there been no election-related election-relat ed deaths, it would have been absolutely absolutely peaceful? Waking up at 5 am on Monday in order to arrive at the polling place by 7 am is a hard-habit-t hard-habit-to-break o-break I learned from my parents who used to wake us up early for any election way back when. The early bird gets the worm. During elections, the early bird avoids the long lines and the heat. There are two kinds of heat on Election Day: the one that can be caused by the friction among poll watchers and the other is of course the hhhhhot summer weather. Expecting a map to guide me through the labyrinth of classrooms on Monday, a cop told me instead to follow the arrows. Great for Barangay 24—it had a lot of red arrows. Our barangay, however, had two red arrows? To mean, Turn right. Upon reaching a dead-end, another red arrow pointing to the right. And that was it. Good thing a concerned citizen and his wife recognized me as someone from his barangay and offered we could look for our precinct together. We nally found our precinct on the second oor where we, of course, lined up and were glad to know we’re among the rst ten. The young lady behind us began to whine whine and complain complain about how she would be late for work which she claimed would start at 8 am—she didn’t want to be late, blah blah blah. I was looking out the hallway window while waiting for our turn, when the concerned citizen called the attention of the teacher assigned to our precinct. The young lady, who was whining and complaining on being late for work, was now inside the classroom and voting! Wow! Asa ang hustisya ani? Well, ani? Well, with the chief-justice seat remaining vacant, I guess we have to continue looking for justice even after the elections. elections.

Children also need a learning environment that will encourage them to explore and experience the world, which is the child’s source of knowledge aside from the classroom. Every child is naturally naturally inquisitive. When When the child is curious, he investigates his own little world. You give him a ball; he squeezes, bounces, and smells it. In the process of carefully studying the ball (investigation), he discovers answer to question about the ball (nal product – knowledge). For children, the learning process is more important than the nal product. Consider the children’s development level. Give them activities and materials that they can handle, thus avoiding frustration and strengthening their self-esteem. Children with high self-esteem can be caring for others because they are not preoccupied with their own perceived inadequacies. Avoid telling them the best way to do things. Let them discover for themselves. While curiosity enhances the cognitive development of children, we should also consider their socio-emotional development manifested through helping, caring, and sharing behaviors. All children have the ability to be affected deeply by other people’s emotional state. Adults can teach children the value of helping, caring, and sharing. Make your environment as nurturing as possible – like taking care of pets and plants. Assist children in dening their own feelings towards others, positive or negative. Children cannot empathize with the emotions of others until they understand their own. Welcome children’s help and show how much you appreciate even the smallest effort. They should help because they want to, not because they expect rewards. Let children know how much you value helping, caring, and sharing; and be good role model to them. The most important role of parents is that of a behavior model. Children tend to mimic what adults do more often than what they say. The ways that you communicate, solve problems, and relate to others – coupled with an enriched learning environment – form a powerful tool for how your children will learn and behave beyond the four walls of the classroom.
In the past changing world of the early 21st century, public education is also changing. As part of changes, the role of schools and education will also be different both in the educational system and in society. Together with them the role of teachers will also change. There have been a great number of changes in education system in our country recently. How- ever, our country experienced a great chance with the abrupt change of the educational curriculum which is the K-12. Let us examine the inuence of the changes and its consequences in teachers in compulsory education. The changes that look place in the schools have changed the roles of teachers too. In the past, teachers used to be in the majors source of knowledge, the leader and educator of their students’ school life. Teachers would organize after-school activities. They used to be the authority in the class and often took over the role of parents. Nowadays, teachers provide information and show their students how to tackle them. If we focus on the teaching process, we realize that there are still a great number of changes in this eld as well, and all of them have an inuence on the role of teachers. First of all, teachers in modern classroom are no longer lecturers – they are facilitators. Their main task is to set goals and organize the learning process accordingly. Then, in the past, teachers used to follow a syllabus which was compulsory for them. Nowadays, teachers have a National Curriculum, a Core Curriculum, and a local (school) curriculum that they have to consider, but, on the other hand, they have independence to choose the teaching materials (textbook), make up a Syllabus of their own, teaching, and teach their pupils so that they can perform well both at examinations and in life. Curriculum design is a task teachers have to be prepared for, although the present generation of teachers has been growing into making up syllabi for years

A reecon is a form of response of the learner to experience. In our model, we have indicated two main components: the experience and the reecve acvity based on that experience. In a sense in which we are using the term, experience consists of the total response of a person to a situaon or event: what he or she thinks, feels, does, and concludes at the me and immediately thereaer. thereaer. The situaon or event could be part of a formal course, e.g. a workshop, a eld trip, a lecture, or it could be more informal: an event arising from a personal study project or from the acons of a community group, or a totally unplanned occurrence in daily life. It could be provoked by an external agent or it could be an internal experience, arising out of some discomfort with one’s present state. In most cases, the inial experience is quite complex and is constuted of a number of parcular experiences within it. In the case of the childcare student discussed, the learning experience would consist of the me spent within the classroom, but within that, there would be many observaons, thoughts, percepons, reacons, awkward moments, and interchanges which would make up the total experience.

Alajar Secondary School Teacher III Halapitan National High School San Fernando, Bukidnon Reading is important for the mind and the success of students’ academic career. To read, one must comprehend what has been read; otherwise, there would be no purpose in reading. Comprehension is one of the most important reading skills adolescent students need to possess. Students who have excellent reading comprehension are able to master academic content, read for pleasure, and are more likely to succeed in post-secondary goals. Unfortunately, comprehension strategy skills are not natural skills of students, but rather must be self-taught or taught by someone else. In view of the impact that reading comprehension has on secondary students’ success in content area classes, it is essential that effective comprehension strategies be taught by all secondary teachers. Secondary students are required to read and understand texts from many different content areas in school. Filipino students are not entering high school equipped with the necessary reading skills as indicated by the large failure rate on required national standardized tests. Reading comprehension is the process of understanding and interpreting information from the text in order to construct meaning. Readers who simply read the text and remember what has been said are not demonstrating reading comprehension. A good reader is not only thinking about everything that the writer includes in the message but is going beyond it as all complex areas of the brain are operating while readers’ process texts. For reading comprehension to occur, a reader must flter what has been read through their own foundation of knowledge and beliefs, use the author’s organizational structure to think about the information read and makes inferences about the author’s message.
