MOALBOAL Mayor Inocentes Cabaron has issued a stern warning to tourists in that southern town, particularly those engaged in water activities, to refrain from disturbing marine life.“We will not tolerate actions such as this,” said Cabaron after a video surfaced online last Monday, March 11, 2024, showing a female tourist touching a sea turtle while snorkeling in Panagsama Beach, one of Moalboal’s top tourist attractions. The video concerned netizens. It gained 3.4 million views as of 8 p.m. Friday, March 15.“Shoutout to the woman who can’t understand simple instructions. She’s been told numerous times that it’s ‘prohibited’ to touch the turtles. Not only did she touch them, she even pushed them,” the uploader under the TikTok handle “HomeWorkoutBasic” said in Pilipino. The incident reportedly happened on Saturday, March 9. “What happened to this woman? She’s not following the rules! She knows that touching sea turtles is not allowed,” another Facebook user said while sharing a SunStar Cebu post on the matter. Moalboal officials have since issued a reminder to the public on Wednesday, March 13, emphasizing the importance of respecting marine wildlife and refraining from any activities that may cause harm to them. Cabaron expressed disappointment saying that tourists are given a thorough briefing on proper conduct before participating in any activities. “They are told not to touch the marine life because we have a local ordinance that [protects] them. It is disappointing that despite the briefing and regular reminders, incidents like this happen,” said Cabaron.The mayor explained that there is a local ordinance in place that aims to protect marine life, and anyone caught violating the ordinance will be fined P2,500.The ordinance entitled “Institutionalizing and regulating the conduct of snorkeling and island hopping activities within the Pescador Island, marine protected areas, and other coastal areas within the municipal waters, and the establishment of the environmental user’s fee system” was passed on Sept. 27, 2021.Section 20 of the ordinance lists 13 violations, including a prohibition on touching any marine life.Moalboal officials are now looking for the tourist and her local guide that was seen in the video.“We treasure and protect our marine life because as a tourist town, it is a major factor in our economy. We will not tolerate actions such as this and we will ensure that the individual will be fined to discourage similar reckless actions,” Cabaron said.Wild animalsMylene Panuncial-Sadagnot, a marine biologist for 21 years and professor at Cebu Normal University, said turtles, like other wild animals, are not domesticated pets that go about and seek people’s attention at times.She also said touching turtles could provoke them to retaliate or bite if they feel agitated by the presence of humans viewed as a potential threat.Sadagnot observed that turtles in Moalboal do not necessarily reproduce there, as they primarily use the area as a feeding ground rather than a breeding site. Male turtles eventually migrate and depart for the breeding season, leaving female turtles accustomed to the environment.She explained the situation is dangerous for both humans and turtles as it could result in bites or wounds that could be severe for humans; and secondly, turtles might be vulnerable to poaching.Poaching refers to the illegal hunting, capturing, or killing of wildlife, typically for commercial gain. Additionally, the waters of Moalboal are part of the Tañon Strait Protected Seascape, located between the islands of Cebu and Negros. It is the largest marine protected area in the Philippines, covering 5,182 square kilometers.Under Presidential Proclamation 1234, which created the protected seascape in 1998, the entire Tañon Strait is protected, and all cetaceans are afforded full protection by local and national laws.Cabaron said the local tourism office is moving to improve the quality of snorkeling guides by having them accredited by the Department of Tourism. To achieve this, officials recently conducted a seven-day seminar for around 200 guides in Moalboal. The seminar mainly focused on teaching proper protocols in handling guests and marine life. / KJF, CDF The Best Online Football Philippines THE Cebu City Government and the Cebu Provincial Government were urged to settle the Cebu Bus Rapid Transit (CBRT) disagreements, as it may result in inconvenience to majority of Cebuanos if it develops into a legal standoff.Cebu City Councilor Nestor Archival, during the Openline News Program on March 12, 2024, maintained his resolution passed during the recent regular session last Wednesday, March 6, for the Cebu City Government through Mayor Michael Rama and Cebu Provincial Government under Governor Gwendolyn Garcia to sit down and discuss a practical solution for ongoing CBRT project in the portion of the Osmeña Boulevard that was affected by the latter's cease-and-desist order.The Council's minority floor leader said that if two leaders do not compromise and bring the matter to court, the Cebuanos will be the ones to suffer."Kung mag-standoff ni, unya maabot ang ting-uwan, unya naay daghan lungag diha, there will be some accidents diha nga mahitabo. Kinsa man ang mabasol diha, diba ang duha gihapon ka institution?" Archival said.(If this develops into a standoff and the rainy season comes, flooding will be noted as there are many holes in the construction site. There will be some accidents. Who will be blamed for it? The two institutions, rights?)He said CBRT was designed to alleviate the commuting woes of the city's residents from Barangay Bulacao and Talamban and for them to enjoy an efficient and seamless public transportation, particularly those who cannot afford to have a private vehicle.Rama threatens lawsuit over CBRT oppositionArchival was a known ally of former mayor Tomas Osmeña, who has been considered the brains behind the CBRT project. He was also part of the team that conceptualized it.But Rama on Thursday, March 7, refused to meet with Garcia to talk about the project, reiterating his desire to file charges against officials who called for the project’s halt.“Why will I have to sit down? They should know where they are. That’s a matter of territory,” Rama said on Friday, March 8, 2024.With the mayor's refusal, Archival said he is planning to submit another resolution, reiterating his earlier call for dialogue between the two local government units.He added that he is open to a suggestion where the City Council initiates a dialogue directly with the Provincial Board to reach a compromise on the project.Disputes should’ve been settled before implementation, says Imee"Ang ako siguro kay from the Vice Mayor itself and the Vice Governor. So, we will be having that resolution, and I will make that," Archival said.He said they acknowledge that the governor's argument is valid, as the bus station, which is part of the CBRT project located in front of the Cebu Capitol building, will potentially block the view of the “heritage” infrastructure built in 1936.He also suggested that both officials avoid throwing antics in the media, regarding the project, as this will result in more tension due to emotions involved."Instead of going to the media, doing some arguments, we are asking them to sit down and try to find ways nga pwede ba nato ni masabot. Kanang if kanang estasyonon naa duol sa Capitol kay kung pwede ba natu i-atras," Archival said."I have talked to Engineer (Norvin) Imbong (the project manager of the CBRT) and they have already raised these items to DOTr (Department of Transporation) og gina-aksyunan nana nila," he added.Archival added that there is a possibility of redesigning the bus stations, including shortening the height of its roof to adjust to the view of the Capitol building.In his opinion, halting the CBRT project will result in putting Cebu in a bad light for future benefactors and affect its credit rating from the perspective of the international financial institutions that approved loan packages for vital government programs and projects.On February 27, Garcia issued Memorandum 16-2024, ordering the Hunan Road and Bridge Construction Group Ltd., contractor of the CBRT Package 1, to cease construction of bus stations along Osmeña Blvd. in front of the Capitol building, citing lacking necessary authorization from the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP).A day after, during the Council’s regular session on February 28, Vice Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia, who was the governor's nephew, urged the Office of the Building Official to issue a cease-and-desist order against the construction of the CBRT bus station through his privilege speech.Garcia: Osmeña Boulevard under Cebu Provincial Government Vice Mayor Garcia argued that the Capitol building has heritage protection following the declaration of a National Historical Landmark by the NHCP.Rama criticized his vice mayor for meeting with Governor Garcia and City officials to discuss CBRT matters, calling it a betrayal.

(EHP) Pick a Bonus in Casino THE proposed amending ordinance to the one-time cash gift for eligible senior citizens in Cebu City is now on its second reading and garnering favorable reception from the city council, a local legislator said.Cebu City Councilor Pastor “Jun” Alcover, senior citizens committee chairman and author of the proposed amendment to the City Ordinance 2235 or “An Ordinance Conferring the Centenary Senior Citizens’ Award to Qualified Senior Citizens on October of Each Year,” expressed confidence that final deliberation is imminent within the next couple of months.“Possibly mga three months from now atong matan-aw kung unsa nay decision pero tan-aw nako mga kasturya sa konsehal pabor man sila atong ipasakaan g’yud ang amendment,” said Alcover.(Possibly, about three months from now, we will see what decision will be made, but from what I see, most of the councilors seem to be in favor of passing the amendment.)After the second reading, it will undergo the third and final reading which will be signed by various officials for approval.Under the current ordinance, senior citizens are eligible to receive a one-time cash benefit of only P5,000 upon reaching their 80th year, an additional P15,000 upon reaching their 90th year, and the remaining P80,000 upon reaching 100, totaling P100,000.The amendments to the one-time cash gift distribution for centennial senior citizens will change the amount of the one-time cash benefit to P25,000 during a senior citizen’s 80th birthday, another P25,000 during his 90th birthday, and the remaining balance of P50,000 upon reaching 100 years old.Alcover said the process will take time as the council is currently reviewing other proposed ordinances and resolutions. However, he reiterated that the other councilors are supportive of the proposed amendments.He said the purpose of the ordinance is to help senior citizens who require financial aid for various expenses, including medication maintenance. Alcover said the senior citizens he has spoken with believe that the proposed changes will have a significant impact on their finances.Alcover said despite the Office of the Senior Citizens Affairs having a list of senior citizens, there are still those who have not yet registered due to the lack of awareness, especially since not all senior citizens are into social media and with some who are residing in far-flung barangays.Alcover said once the amendment is in effect, the senior citizen’s committee will conduct an information drive to inform senior citizens covered by the amended ordinance.“Atong i-reach out sila na malista g’yud sila para maka avail sila. So, atong paningkamutan g’yud na ma reach out nato uban mga seniors na wa kabalo,” said Alcover.(We will contact seniors who are not aware to ensure they are listed and can avail themselves of the benefits.) / RJM

It is disappointing that despite the briefing and regular reminders, incidents like this happen,” said Cabaron.The mayor explained that there is a local ordinance in place that aims to protect marine life, and anyone caught violating the ordinance will be fined P2,500.The ordinance entitled “Institutionalizing and regulating the conduct of snorkeling and island hopping activities within the Pescador Island, marine protected areas, and other coastal areas within the municipal waters, and the establishment of the environmental user’s fee system” was passed on Sept. 27, 2021.Section 20 of the ordinance lists 13 violations, including a prohibition on touching any marine life.Moalboal officials are now looking for the tourist and her local guide that was seen in the video.“We treasure and protect our marine life because as a tourist town, it is a major factor in our economy. We will not tolerate actions such as this and we will ensure that the individual will be fined to discourage similar reckless actions,” Cabaron said.Wild animalsMylene Panuncial-Sadagnot, a marine biologist for 21 years and professor at Cebu Normal University, said turtles, like other wild animals, are not domesticated pets that go about and seek people’s attention at times.She also said touching turtles could provoke them to retaliate or bite if they feel agitated by the presence of humans viewed as a potential threat.Sadagnot observed that turtles in Moalboal do not necessarily reproduce there, as they primarily use the area as a feeding ground rather than a breeding site. Male turtles eventually migrate and depart for the breeding season, leaving female turtles accustomed to the environment.She explained the situation is dangerous for both humans and turtles as it could result in bites or wounds that could be severe for humans; and secondly, turtles might be vulnerable to poaching.Poaching refers to the illegal hunting, capturing, or killing of wildlife, typically for commercial gain. Additionally, the waters of Moalboal are part of the Tañon Strait Protected Seascape, located between the islands of Cebu and Negros. It is the largest marine protected area in the Philippines, covering 5,182 square kilometers.Under Presidential Proclamation 1234, which created the protected seascape in 1998, the entire Tañon Strait is protected, and all cetaceans are afforded full protection by local and national laws.Cabaron said the local tourism office is moving to improve the quality of snorkeling guides by having them accredited by the Department of Tourism. To achieve this, officials recently conducted a seven-day seminar for around 200 guides in Moalboal. The seminar mainly focused on teaching proper protocols in handling guests and marine life. / KJF, CDF Pick a Bonus in Casino .

THE Cebu City Government and the Cebu Provincial Government were urged to settle the Cebu Bus Rapid Transit (CBRT) disagreements, as it may result in inconvenience to majority of Cebuanos if it develops into a legal standoff.Cebu City Councilor Nestor Archival, during the Openline News Program on March 12, 2024, maintained his resolution passed during the recent regular session last Wednesday, March 6, for the Cebu City Government through Mayor Michael Rama and Cebu Provincial Government under Governor Gwendolyn Garcia to sit down and discuss a practical solution for ongoing CBRT project in the portion of the Osmeña Boulevard that was affected by the latter's cease-and-desist order.The Council's minority floor leader said that if two leaders do not compromise and bring the matter to court, the Cebuanos will be the ones to suffer."Kung mag-standoff ni, unya maabot ang ting-uwan, unya naay daghan lungag diha, there will be some accidents diha nga mahitabo. Kinsa man ang mabasol diha, diba ang duha gihapon ka institution?" Archival said.(If this develops into a standoff and the rainy season comes, flooding will be noted as there are many holes in the construction site. There will be some accidents. Who will be blamed for it? The two institutions, rights?)He said CBRT was designed to alleviate the commuting woes of the city's residents from Barangay Bulacao and Talamban and for them to enjoy an efficient and seamless public transportation, particularly those who cannot afford to have a private vehicle.Rama threatens lawsuit over CBRT oppositionArchival was a known ally of former mayor Tomas Osmeña, who has been considered the brains behind the CBRT project. He was also part of the team that conceptualized it.But Rama on Thursday, March 7, refused to meet with Garcia to talk about the project, reiterating his desire to file charges against officials who called for the project’s halt.“Why will I have to sit down? They should know where they are. That’s a matter of territory,” Rama said on Friday, March 8, 2024.With the mayor's refusal, Archival said he is planning to submit another resolution, reiterating his earlier call for dialogue between the two local government units.He added that he is open to a suggestion where the City Council initiates a dialogue directly with the Provincial Board to reach a compromise on the project.Disputes should’ve been settled before implementation, says Imee"Ang ako siguro kay from the Vice Mayor itself and the Vice Governor. So, we will be having that resolution, and I will make that," Archival said.He said they acknowledge that the governor's argument is valid, as the bus station, which is part of the CBRT project located in front of the Cebu Capitol building, will potentially block the view of the “heritage” infrastructure built in 1936.He also suggested that both officials avoid throwing antics in the media, regarding the project, as this will result in more tension due to emotions involved."Instead of going to the media, doing some arguments, we are asking them to sit down and try to find ways nga pwede ba nato ni masabot. Kanang if kanang estasyonon naa duol sa Capitol kay kung pwede ba natu i-atras," Archival said."I have talked to Engineer (Norvin) Imbong (the project manager of the CBRT) and they have already raised these items to DOTr (Department of Transporation) og gina-aksyunan nana nila," he added.Archival added that there is a possibility of redesigning the bus stations, including shortening the height of its roof to adjust to the view of the Capitol building.In his opinion, halting the CBRT project will result in putting Cebu in a bad light for future benefactors and affect its credit rating from the perspective of the international financial institutions that approved loan packages for vital government programs and projects.On February 27, Garcia issued Memorandum 16-2024, ordering the Hunan Road and Bridge Construction Group Ltd., contractor of the CBRT Package 1, to cease construction of bus stations along Osmeña Blvd. in front of the Capitol building, citing lacking necessary authorization from the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP).A day after, during the Council’s regular session on February 28, Vice Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia, who was the governor's nephew, urged the Office of the Building Official to issue a cease-and-desist order against the construction of the CBRT bus station through his privilege speech.Garcia: Osmeña Boulevard under Cebu Provincial Government Vice Mayor Garcia argued that the Capitol building has heritage protection following the declaration of a National Historical Landmark by the NHCP.Rama criticized his vice mayor for meeting with Governor Garcia and City officials to discuss CBRT matters, calling it a betrayal.

(EHP) licensed online casinos THE proposed amending ordinance to the one-time cash gift for eligible senior citizens in Cebu City is now on its second reading and garnering favorable reception from the city council, a local legislator said.Cebu City Councilor Pastor “Jun” Alcover, senior citizens committee chairman and author of the proposed amendment to the City Ordinance 2235 or “An Ordinance Conferring the Centenary Senior Citizens’ Award to Qualified Senior Citizens on October of Each Year,” expressed confidence that final deliberation is imminent within the next couple of months.“Possibly mga three months from now atong matan-aw kung unsa nay decision pero tan-aw nako mga kasturya sa konsehal pabor man sila atong ipasakaan g’yud ang amendment,” said Alcover.(Possibly, about three months from now, we will see what decision will be made, but from what I see, most of the councilors seem to be in favor of passing the amendment.)After the second reading, it will undergo the third and final reading which will be signed by various officials for approval.Under the current ordinance, senior citizens are eligible to receive a one-time cash benefit of only P5,000 upon reaching their 80th year, an additional P15,000 upon reaching their 90th year, and the remaining P80,000 upon reaching 100, totaling P100,000.The amendments to the one-time cash gift distribution for centennial senior citizens will change the amount of the one-time cash benefit to P25,000 during a senior citizen’s 80th birthday, another P25,000 during his 90th birthday, and the remaining balance of P50,000 upon reaching 100 years old.Alcover said the process will take time as the council is currently reviewing other proposed ordinances and resolutions. However, he reiterated that the other councilors are supportive of the proposed amendments.He said the purpose of the ordinance is to help senior citizens who require financial aid for various expenses, including medication maintenance. Alcover said the senior citizens he has spoken with believe that the proposed changes will have a significant impact on their finances.Alcover said despite the Office of the Senior Citizens Affairs having a list of senior citizens, there are still those who have not yet registered due to the lack of awareness, especially since not all senior citizens are into social media and with some who are residing in far-flung barangays.Alcover said once the amendment is in effect, the senior citizen’s committee will conduct an information drive to inform senior citizens covered by the amended ordinance.“Atong i-reach out sila na malista g’yud sila para maka avail sila. So, atong paningkamutan g’yud na ma reach out nato uban mga seniors na wa kabalo,” said Alcover.(We will contact seniors who are not aware to ensure they are listed and can avail themselves of the benefits.) / RJM
