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 Is there a baseball league in the Philippines?

The PRC's vain attempt to manufacture and sell this story falters in the face of real incontrovertible facts,” he added.In his speech at the Lowy Institute Peace and Resilient Amidst Great Power Rivalries: The Philippine Perspective in Melbourne, Australia on Monday, March 4, Marcos said the Philippines will be compelled to push back its partnership with China when the principle of the two countries is questioned or ignored amid tensions in the South China Sea.Marcos also vowed to continue to upgrade the capabilities of the Philippine Coast Guard and pursue the modernization of the Armed Forces of the Philippines amid the tension in the disputed territory.Other countries, including the US and France, have expressed concern over the latest incidents in the WPS.France called for respect for the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, and in particular for freedom of navigation, and resolutely opposes any threat or use of force contrary to international law.

(TPM/SunStar Philippines) Most Popular Apps in Philippines TEN local government units (LGUs) in Cebu have announced the temporary suspension of face-to-face (F2F) classes due to the recent increase in the heat index.The heat index is the temperature the human body feels when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.The LGUs said schools will implement an alternative delivery mode of learning to minimize the disruption on students’ learning. This includes modular distance learning where learners use a self-learning module either in print or digital format that is usually implemented for those living in rural areas or provinces with intermittent internet connection.Lapu-Lapu City, Liloan and Consolacion suspended F2F classes in public schools from kindergarten to high school from Wednesday, April 3, 2024, to April 12.The City of Naga and Talisay City suspended F2F classes in public schools from kindergarten to high school from April 3 to 14. Toledo City and San Fernando suspended F2F classes in public schools from kindergarten to high school from Thursday, April 4, to April 13. Ronda suspended F2F classes in public schools from kindergarten to high school from April 3 to Friday, April 5. Private schools in these eight LGUs have the discretion to decide whether to suspend F2F classes.Minglanilla and Cordova suspended F2F classes in both public and private schools from kindergarten to high school from April 3 until further notice.More LGUsDepartment of Education (DepEd) 7 Director Salustiano Jimenez told SunStar Cebu on Wednesday that he expects more school division superintendents to give him an update on their situation.“So far, there are only three LGUs [that have notified us]. Though I am still waiting for documents from other superintendents [for other suspensions], but so far these are Talisay, Lapu-Lapu and Naga,” he said.He said LGUs also have the authority to suspend F2F classes during typhoons and other calamities.In an interview last March 18, Jimenez said public and private school heads and principals have the discretion and are authorized to shift to modular classes “in cases of unfavorable weather and environment, such as, but not limited to, extremely high temperatures,” under DepEd Order 37 of 2022.The Alliance of Concerned Teachers (ACT) 7, for its part, welcomed the move of the 10 LGUs.In a statement sent to SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, ACT 7 president Cristopher Abrajano called on other LGUs to exercise their power to suspend classes given the urgency of the matter.He also called on the DepEd 7 to look into the welfare of teachers, saying they have received reports “from the ground that teachers are still made to report to schools to supposedly prepare the modules for parents to collect from school,” which, for them, defeats the logic of suspending F2F classes.Cebu City Schools Division superintendent Nimfa Bongo reminded school principals about their authority to suspend F2F classes due to the continued hot weather. She said F2F should be automatically suspended if the heat index reaches 40 degrees Celsius.Less retentionIn Mandaue City, the Local School Board (LSB) said it plans to adopt a blended learning approach for pupils in elementary and high schools during the last two months of school year (SY) 2023-2024. During an LSB meeting at the Mandaue Science High School in Barangay Ibabao-Estancia on Wednesday, Bianito Dagatan, DepEd Mandaue superintendent, suggested putting in place measures to ensure pupils are still able to effectively learn, as most of them tend to have less knowledge retention without teacher supervision.Mayor Jonas Cortes, who is the LSB chair, supported the idea of blended learning. He said the approach is ideal, especially since pupils are still recovering from the learning gaps caused by the Covid-19 pandemic during which they had to attend full modular classes.Modular learning is an individualized instruction that allows learners to use self-learning modules, either in print or digital format, depending on the pupil’s needs.The LSB said it might implement a blended class setup that will involve dividing students’ class time between F2F and modular classes, as well as shortening class times.This blended class setup may remain in place while the heat index, particularly in Cebu, remains high.Dagatan proposed shortening classes from six hours to three hours and using the remaining three hours for modular activities to be done at home. The classes will be divided into morning sessions from 6 to 9 a.m. and afternoon sessions from 3 to 6 p.m.He said pupils will attend F2F classes on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for their catch-up classes. They will have modular classes at home on Tuesdays and Thursdays.Concerns Dixie Ortiz, president of Mandaue’s Parents Teachers Association (PTA), was worried about the safety of elementary school pupils if they were to be dismissed at 9 a.m. Ortiz said most parents are already at work by this time, which means children will either have to walk home by themselves or get stuck in school waiting for their parents to fetch them.It will also be difficult for parents with children attending afternoon classes to send them to school, especially if they have work.There are also concerns regarding the lack of drinking water, which prompted the LSB to discuss the provision of at least two tabletop dispensers per floor. This will ensure pupils are well hydrated while attending F2F classes.Cortes announced plans to issue an executive order (EO) that will formalize a decision based on the recommendations of all involved stakeholders. Representatives from school divisions, PTAs, and other school personnel had until 3 p.m. Wednesday to discuss and present their suggestions, which will serve as basis for the mayor’s EO.Cortes said he also asked personnel of the Mandaue City College to discuss their plans and recommendations for blended learning for college students.DepEd orderDagatan said DepEd has issued an order authorizing school superintendents to halt F2F when the heat index reaches 40 degrees Celsius.Schools in Mandaue City continue to hold F2F classes since the heat index in the city has not climbed above 38 degrees Celsius. This week, the weather bureau Pagasa Mactan warned that the heat index in Cebu may reach 51 degrees Celsius in the coming months.Cortes assured that he would revise the EO if the humid weather worsened over time.“As much as we wanted to be reactive, we want to prioritize consultation because our DepEd personnel, principals, and superintendents have a better understanding of the situations in our schools,” he said.Due to the heat, DepEd will shorten SY 2023-2024. It was initially scheduled to end on June 14, but it will now end on May 31 to give way to the gradual return to the old school calendar.The fourth grading periodical test for the current school year will be conducted on May 16 and 17, and the closing or the end-of-school-year rites are slated on May 29, 30 and 31.Earlier this year, Jimenez said the decision to shift the school year’s start back to June was in response to numerous complaints regarding the challenges of conducting classes during the dry hot season that starts every March.SY 2024-2025 will start on July 29 and end on May 16, 2025. He said they will finally be able to revert to the June opening of classes again during the opening of SY 2025-2026 and the succeeding school years. The late start of the school year began in 2020, when the opening of classes was delayed to Oct. 5, taking into account the logistical challenges in areas facing mobility restrictions amid the Covid-19 pandemic.SunStar Cebu earlier reported that when the heat index reaches 51 degrees Celsius, it can cause heat cramps and exhaustion, and prolongued exposure can lead to a heatstroke.Pagasa Visayas weather specialist Jhomer Eclarino attributed the increase in the heat index to the El Niño phenomenon and the ongoing dry, hot summer. He said Cebu typically experiences its highest temperatures in May. On May 31, 2010, also during an El Niño, Cebu recorded a surface temperature of 37 degrees Celsius and heat index of 49 degrees Celsius. / KJF, HIC

PRESIDENT Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said on Wednesday, March 6, 2024, that he continues to view the provocations and harassment by China in the West Philippine Sea (WPS) against Philippine vessels with “great alarm.”In an interview with reporters before heading back to the Philippines from Australia, Marcos said the government will protest the recent provocations by China.But he said he does not think China’s recent actions would be a reason to invoke the country’s Mutual Defense Treaty (MDT) with the United States.PH foreign minister urges neighbors to stand together more strongly in South China Sea“We continue to view with great alarm this continuing dangerous maneuvers and dangerous actions that are being done against our seamen, our Coast Guard. And this time, they damaged cargo ship and caused some injury to some of our seamen and I think that we cannot view this any way but in the most serious way,” Marcos said.“Once again, we will make our objections known and hope that we can continue to communicate to find the way so that such actions are no longer seen in the West Philippine Sea,” he added.Earlier this week, China Coast Guard (CCG) and Chinese Maritime Militia (CMM) vessels harassed, blocked, deployed water cannons, and executed dangerous maneuvers to obstruct a routine Philippine resupply and rotation mission to BRP Sierra Madre deliberately grounded off Ayungin Shoal.China accused the Philippines of “violating” an agreement during the RORE mission, which the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) vehemently denied, noting that no agreement exists in terms of the country’s sovereignty over the WPS.Marcos says situation in WPS ‘worrisome’The incident resulted in the collision of Philippine and Chinese vessels, causing injury to four Filipino security forces and damage to the country’s boats.Marcos also described as “great concern” the reported sightings of Chinese research vessels in Benham Rise.The President said it is a clear intrusion into the Philippine maritime territory.“The presence of Chinese ships in the area is absolutely unnecessary because if it is truly a research vessel, both sides could have come to a simple agreement for those research vessels to ply Philippine waters and conduct such research,” said Marcos.“However, there is a suspicion that they are not only research vessels so, again, this is a bit of an escalation of the tension that is present in the West Philippines Sea,” he added.Navy confirms communication interference being done by China in WPSAs he condemned China, Defense Secretary Gilbert Teodoro urged Beijing to “to be truthful and to be believable,” saying its acts in the WPS are “patently illegal and downright uncivilized.”He said the propaganda mechanisms of the People’s Republic of China attempts to justify their illegal acts against Philippine vessels on their so-called “indisputable” claim over most of the South China Sea. “They take great pains to mischaracterize their provocations as lawful under international law and the actions of their CCG and Maritime Militia as professional, restrained, reasonable, and lawful,” said Teodoro.“This claim is, simply put, one that no right-thinking State in the world agrees with and which many outright condemn. The PRC's vain attempt to manufacture and sell this story falters in the face of real incontrovertible facts,” he added.In his speech at the Lowy Institute Peace and Resilient Amidst Great Power Rivalries: The Philippine Perspective in Melbourne, Australia on Monday, March 4, Marcos said the Philippines will be compelled to push back its partnership with China when the principle of the two countries is questioned or ignored amid tensions in the South China Sea.Marcos also vowed to continue to upgrade the capabilities of the Philippine Coast Guard and pursue the modernization of the Armed Forces of the Philippines amid the tension in the disputed territory.Other countries, including the US and France, have expressed concern over the latest incidents in the WPS.France called for respect for the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, and in particular for freedom of navigation, and resolutely opposes any threat or use of force contrary to international law.

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 Most Popular Apps in Philippines .

It reiterates its commitment to resolving disputes through dialogue. (TPM/SunStar Philippines) licensed online casinos TEN local government units (LGUs) in Cebu have announced the temporary suspension of face-to-face (F2F) classes due to the recent increase in the heat index.The heat index is the temperature the human body feels when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.The LGUs said schools will implement an alternative delivery mode of learning to minimize the disruption on students’ learning. This includes modular distance learning where learners use a self-learning module either in print or digital format that is usually implemented for those living in rural areas or provinces with intermittent internet connection.Lapu-Lapu City, Liloan and Consolacion suspended F2F classes in public schools from kindergarten to high school from Wednesday, April 3, 2024, to April 12.The City of Naga and Talisay City suspended F2F classes in public schools from kindergarten to high school from April 3 to 14. Toledo City and San Fernando suspended F2F classes in public schools from kindergarten to high school from Thursday, April 4, to April 13. Ronda suspended F2F classes in public schools from kindergarten to high school from April 3 to Friday, April 5. Private schools in these eight LGUs have the discretion to decide whether to suspend F2F classes.Minglanilla and Cordova suspended F2F classes in both public and private schools from kindergarten to high school from April 3 until further notice.More LGUsDepartment of Education (DepEd) 7 Director Salustiano Jimenez told SunStar Cebu on Wednesday that he expects more school division superintendents to give him an update on their situation.“So far, there are only three LGUs [that have notified us]. Though I am still waiting for documents from other superintendents [for other suspensions], but so far these are Talisay, Lapu-Lapu and Naga,” he said.He said LGUs also have the authority to suspend F2F classes during typhoons and other calamities.In an interview last March 18, Jimenez said public and private school heads and principals have the discretion and are authorized to shift to modular classes “in cases of unfavorable weather and environment, such as, but not limited to, extremely high temperatures,” under DepEd Order 37 of 2022.The Alliance of Concerned Teachers (ACT) 7, for its part, welcomed the move of the 10 LGUs.In a statement sent to SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, ACT 7 president Cristopher Abrajano called on other LGUs to exercise their power to suspend classes given the urgency of the matter.He also called on the DepEd 7 to look into the welfare of teachers, saying they have received reports “from the ground that teachers are still made to report to schools to supposedly prepare the modules for parents to collect from school,” which, for them, defeats the logic of suspending F2F classes.Cebu City Schools Division superintendent Nimfa Bongo reminded school principals about their authority to suspend F2F classes due to the continued hot weather. She said F2F should be automatically suspended if the heat index reaches 40 degrees Celsius.Less retentionIn Mandaue City, the Local School Board (LSB) said it plans to adopt a blended learning approach for pupils in elementary and high schools during the last two months of school year (SY) 2023-2024. During an LSB meeting at the Mandaue Science High School in Barangay Ibabao-Estancia on Wednesday, Bianito Dagatan, DepEd Mandaue superintendent, suggested putting in place measures to ensure pupils are still able to effectively learn, as most of them tend to have less knowledge retention without teacher supervision.Mayor Jonas Cortes, who is the LSB chair, supported the idea of blended learning. He said the approach is ideal, especially since pupils are still recovering from the learning gaps caused by the Covid-19 pandemic during which they had to attend full modular classes.Modular learning is an individualized instruction that allows learners to use self-learning modules, either in print or digital format, depending on the pupil’s needs.The LSB said it might implement a blended class setup that will involve dividing students’ class time between F2F and modular classes, as well as shortening class times.This blended class setup may remain in place while the heat index, particularly in Cebu, remains high.Dagatan proposed shortening classes from six hours to three hours and using the remaining three hours for modular activities to be done at home. The classes will be divided into morning sessions from 6 to 9 a.m. and afternoon sessions from 3 to 6 p.m.He said pupils will attend F2F classes on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for their catch-up classes. They will have modular classes at home on Tuesdays and Thursdays.Concerns Dixie Ortiz, president of Mandaue’s Parents Teachers Association (PTA), was worried about the safety of elementary school pupils if they were to be dismissed at 9 a.m. Ortiz said most parents are already at work by this time, which means children will either have to walk home by themselves or get stuck in school waiting for their parents to fetch them.It will also be difficult for parents with children attending afternoon classes to send them to school, especially if they have work.There are also concerns regarding the lack of drinking water, which prompted the LSB to discuss the provision of at least two tabletop dispensers per floor. This will ensure pupils are well hydrated while attending F2F classes.Cortes announced plans to issue an executive order (EO) that will formalize a decision based on the recommendations of all involved stakeholders. Representatives from school divisions, PTAs, and other school personnel had until 3 p.m. Wednesday to discuss and present their suggestions, which will serve as basis for the mayor’s EO.Cortes said he also asked personnel of the Mandaue City College to discuss their plans and recommendations for blended learning for college students.DepEd orderDagatan said DepEd has issued an order authorizing school superintendents to halt F2F when the heat index reaches 40 degrees Celsius.Schools in Mandaue City continue to hold F2F classes since the heat index in the city has not climbed above 38 degrees Celsius. This week, the weather bureau Pagasa Mactan warned that the heat index in Cebu may reach 51 degrees Celsius in the coming months.Cortes assured that he would revise the EO if the humid weather worsened over time.“As much as we wanted to be reactive, we want to prioritize consultation because our DepEd personnel, principals, and superintendents have a better understanding of the situations in our schools,” he said.Due to the heat, DepEd will shorten SY 2023-2024. It was initially scheduled to end on June 14, but it will now end on May 31 to give way to the gradual return to the old school calendar.The fourth grading periodical test for the current school year will be conducted on May 16 and 17, and the closing or the end-of-school-year rites are slated on May 29, 30 and 31.Earlier this year, Jimenez said the decision to shift the school year’s start back to June was in response to numerous complaints regarding the challenges of conducting classes during the dry hot season that starts every March.SY 2024-2025 will start on July 29 and end on May 16, 2025. He said they will finally be able to revert to the June opening of classes again during the opening of SY 2025-2026 and the succeeding school years. The late start of the school year began in 2020, when the opening of classes was delayed to Oct. 5, taking into account the logistical challenges in areas facing mobility restrictions amid the Covid-19 pandemic.SunStar Cebu earlier reported that when the heat index reaches 51 degrees Celsius, it can cause heat cramps and exhaustion, and prolongued exposure can lead to a heatstroke.Pagasa Visayas weather specialist Jhomer Eclarino attributed the increase in the heat index to the El Niño phenomenon and the ongoing dry, hot summer. He said Cebu typically experiences its highest temperatures in May. On May 31, 2010, also during an El Niño, Cebu recorded a surface temperature of 37 degrees Celsius and heat index of 49 degrees Celsius. / KJF, HIC
