We have Archival,” Osmeña said.Osmeña remarked that Archival would not be a simple opponent, saying that Archival has always been a first councilor in the north district, meaning earning the highest number of votes.No problemIn a phone interview on Thursday, Archival said he had no problem running for mayor; however, the concern he had raised to Osmeña was on the finances for the campaign.Archival said he had asked Osmeña for more time to make a decision, saying that being a mayor is a “big job.”Regarding Mayor Rama’s offer to include Archival as part of his lineup of councilors for the 2025 midterm elections, Archival said he informed Rama that he would first consult with Bando Osmeña-Pundok Kauswagan (BOPK), with which he is politically affiliated.Asked about the projects he would prioritize if he became mayor, Archival said he would prioritize the basic needs of the constituents.He added that business and environmental concerns should also be addressed together, striking a balance between the two.As he awaits the filing of candidacy, Archival said he is currently consulting with residents and his family.BetterAsked what makes him a better candidate than the others, Archival said as both public and private person he is different from the others.As a public official, Archival said he is doing everything he can for the city despite not having a committee, which includes donating his whole salary as councilor of about P120,000 to P125,000 per month for scholarship programs.He added that his advocacy for the environment would also make the difference, saying that it is the main source of life. Without it, life will be more miserable.He is pushing for what he called “smart production” for food security, according to Archival.He said he already made a foundation two years ago that would assist the city in responding to cases of fire and other emergencies.Lastly, he works in a proactive direction, anticipating potential problems before they happen.Rama, Garcia reactWhen asked about Osmeña’s support for Archival’s candidacy during Cebu City Hall’s online program on Thursday, Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama said he would let them file their candidacy first, noting that anyone is a worthy opponent, even if it is Osmeña’s dog.Rama said he had set a deadline for Archival to make his decision regarding joining his lineup. The deadline was Feb. 24.“No more na,” Rama said, meaning Archival will no longer be included in his lineup.Earlier this month, Rama and Vice Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia announced that they would run for reelection as a tandem in the 2025 midterm elections. Rama also unveiled the legislators in their lineup, which included Archival for the north district.Asked to comment on Osmeña’s candidacy for vice mayor, Garcia said anyone can run for any elected position in a democratic country.Garcia described Osmeña as a “legend” in the political arena, which makes him entitled to run.Garcia noted that if Osmeña pursues his plan, he could be a “worthy” and “formidable” opponent.Yet, Garcia emphasized that ultimately, it would be up to the people of Cebu City to decide.Potential rivalsRuiz announced his run for mayor last January, while Cebu City Hall reported that Daluz would run for mayor with former councilor and now Basak Pardo Barangay Captain David “Dave” Tumulak as his running mate.Daluz and Tumulak, however, told SunStar Cebu that they had yet to make a final decision on running.Tumulak ran unsuccessfully for mayor in the 2022 elections.

Leo Andicoy of the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) Mandaue, who is leading the investigation, said they still have to determine what caused the blaze in Sitio Under The Bridge.According to Andicoy, the fire was reported at 12:08 p.m., and was raised to third alarm at 12:22 p.m. It was declared under control at 12:42 p.m. and was fully extinguished at 2:16 p.m. He placed damage estimates to be around P1.215 million. Arnel Abella, head of BFP Mandaue, said the fire burned an area of about 5,000 square meters. Andicoy said the BFP Mandaue is working tirelessly to carry out repairs and clear the area to prevent any chance of the fire rekindling.Authorities reported no casualties or injuries.Temporary sheltersThe victims are currently sheltering at the Looc Gym and Cesar M. Cabahug Elementary School. As of 5 p.m., the Mandaue City Public Information Office reported that the blaze affected 444 families consisting of 1,537 people. Of this number, 340 were homeowners and 104 were renters. Vice Mayor Glenn Bercede, in a separate interview, announced that they will be opening 20 rooms at the Cesar Cabahug Elementary School located next to the Looc Gymnasium to accommodate the victims.He said the City will also provide them with food and other necessities. Looc Barangay Captain Raul Cabahug requested neighboring barangays and cities for in-kind donations, which can be turned over to the Looc Barangay Hall. “Dili gyud lalim ilabi na ang Looc bag-o lang kaayo nasunugan ning Sitio Paradise sad. Wa pa gani ang uban ka-recover pero karun nana say laing sunog,” he said.(It’s not easy for the barangay, especially since it wasn’t that long ago that Sitio Paradise was also struck by fire. Some of the victims have not even recovered. Now another fire has struck.)Outside assistanceCabahug was referring to the fire on Nov. 22, 2022 that destroyed 600 homes. The barangay then declared a state of calamity to access emergency funds for the victims. Buddy Alain Ybañez, head of the Mandaue City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office, praised firefighters from the neighboring cities of Lapu-Lapu, Talisay, and Danao for their assistance. Ybañez said they employed one strategy that helped immediately douse the flames.He said they used flood suctioning machines to transfer water from the fire trucks. According to Ybañez, one of the challenges they had to overcome was the strong wind, which caused the fire to spread quickly. / HIC licensed online casinos MAJORITY of regular and casual employees of the Cebu City Government may soon receive their Charter Day bonus of P25,000. During a special session on Friday, March 8, 2024, the City Council approved the first supplemental budget (SB 1) amounting to P972 million. The amount includes the P121 million for the cash incentive, as well as the P5,000 gratuity pay of job order (JO) employees. Some councilors, though, were not happy, saying the City had other pressing matters that needed to be addressed instead of granting bonuses.Councilors Phillip Zafra, Donaldo Hontiveros, James Anthony Cuenco, Renato Osmeña Jr., and Pancrasio Esparis said they would not accept the money.Justification During the discussion on the Program on Awards and Incentives for Service Excellence’s (Praise) resolution that recommended the grant of service excellence incentive to regular and casual employees, Cuenco questioned the justifications of the executive department to give the P25,000 bonus.He said the City just gave the employees a P20,000 cash incentive two months ago.He said the justifications were only a “copy paste” of last December’s justification. “There should be a sort of real reward and performance done by the employees that will give reason for the grant of incentive. Maybe they give honor or recognition to the City... I am bothered by the fact that all these rewards they mentioned are the same as those that have been mentioned for the grant of incentive last December for Christmas bonus,” Cuenco said in mixed Cebuano and English. “Murag man ta’g giinsulto ani gud (It seems like we’re being insulted),” added Cuenco, chairman of the committee on budget and finance.Councilor Noel Wenceslao said the Praise committee added three new items to justify the Charter Day bonus.These were the Gawad Kalasag (Kalamidad at Sakuna Labanan Sariling Galing ang Kaligtasan) Seal, a special award for excellence in Disaster Risk Reduction and Management in Humanitarian Assistance, and the acknowledgement made by Cebu engineers and architects “for the City’s efficient and effective administration in creating and sustaining mindful relationship to foster and strengthen connections and collaborations of professional expertise.” Priorities Cuenco and Councilor Jocelyn Pesquera said the executive department should have first addressed the matter of unpaid JO personnel and the purchase of a heavy-duty tow truck. Pesquera said several JO personnel have been working without appointments and salaries for the last two months. Zafra suggested acting on the JOs’ plight first before acting on the Charter Day bonus.Cuenco also questioned one of the sources of funds for the cash incentives, which will be the savings from personal services.He said the Cebu City Transportation Office has the highest savings, but only because it did not renew the appointment of many traffic enforcers.“They were not renewed because the City was rightsizing. That’s why the traffic situation in the city has worsened because we lack enforcers... What we see now is the City has been skimping on money, only to find out that we are doing this so we can give a bonus. This is very absurd,” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.He said the City should instead appropriate money to buy tow trucks capable of towing 10-wheeler trucks.Cuenco, who also chairs the transportation committee, said the City had to borrow a heavy-duty tow truck from Mandaue City to tow a truck that had broken down inside the tunnel of the Cebu South Coastal Road, which caused a four-hour traffic jam last Feb. 20.“Uwaw kaayo (It was shameful),” he said.Cuenco also said the bonus should be given to employees in need like the JOs, and not to those who are already in the position.He said it is incumbent on them, as City Hall employees and officials, to perform well without any incentive. But Wenceslao said not all regular and casual employees will receive the Charter Day bonus, emphasizing that only those who received a satisfactory performance rating will get one. He said there are currently 4,784 regular and casual employees and 3,357 JO personnel working in City Hall. The SB 1 also covers the P205 million for the preparation of the Palarong Pambansa in July, P600 million for transitional housing, and P21 million for the City Council upgrade, among others. The SB 1 will be sourced from the savings of general fund proper and special accounts. Cebu City celebrated its 87th Charter Day last Feb. 24. / JJL, AML
