THE executive department of the Cebu City Government has asked the Cebu City Council to propose the amount of the Charter Day bonus for City Hall employees.Cebu City Budget Officer Jerone Castillo said Tuesday, Feb. 6, 2024, that Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama expressed this request last Monday to the City Council for their input on the bonus amount.Sought for comment, budget and finance committee chairman Councilor Noel Wenceslao said Wednesday that he cannot comment on the matter yet as this is the first time he has encountered such a request.However, Vice Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia said they had yet to discuss it in the council.“We will have to meet about it. We have not yet decided,” he said in a text message Wednesday.Rama announced the Charter Day bonus for city hall employees during the flag-raising ceremony on Feb. 5.Castillo said once the City Council comes up with the amount, it will then be the basis for the formal proposal of the mayor. The executive department, through the Local Finance Committee (LFC), will then look for the funding source.He added that Rama wants to prevent a recurrence of the issues and controversies that surrounded the 2023 Christmas bonus for city hall employees.Last December, Rama promised a P35,000 Christmas bonus for all regular and casual city hall employees; however, the city council approved only a P20,000 Christmas bonus.“Karon para wala na gyud issues and concerns, let the Sanggunian suggest, and hopefully the mayor can connect with the Sanggunian that this is the amount that they have in mind,” Castillo said.(Now, to avoid any further issues and concerns, let the city council suggest, and hopefully, the mayor can coordinate with the Sanggunian regarding the amount they have in mind.)Castillo said Mayor Rama’s proposal, with the concurrence of the council, will be evaluated by the LFC, subject to savings and cash flow of the City Government that will support the source of funding.After this, the executive department will then propose to the City Council a supplemental budget that will fund the charter day bonus to the employees, Castillo said.However, Wenceslao on Wednesday said they were waiting for the executive department to submit its proposal to the legislative department for the approval of the Charter Day bonus.He added it will be the council that will determine whether to slash or amend the exact amount of the bonus that will be granted in the supplemental budget.Wenceslao refused to comment yet on the mayor’s request, saying this was the first time he had ever encountered a situation wherein the city council had to suggest the amount for the budget of the Charter Day bonus.In 2023, the employees received P15,000 each after the Council approved Supplemental Budget 1 for 2023 amounting to P79 million for the Charter Day bonus of around 5,000 city hall employees.Last January, however, City Hall reported that it had about 9,000 em­plo­­yees on its payroll, including over 4,000 job order per­sonnel, 3,212 casual and 1,400 regular employees.The Cebu City Government celebrates Char­ter Day every Feb. 24. 10 Ways To Earn Money As An Expat in The Philippines Philippines AN OFFICIAL from the Mandaue City Environment and Natural Resources Office (MCenro) warned residents not to capture snakes they may find in their backyards or residential areas.Araceli Barlam, head of MCenro, said the residents should instead call the authorities for proper rescue and turnover operations.She made the statement after a reticulated python, commonly known as "sawa" in the Philippines, was found on an electric post in Barangay Umapad on Thursday, February 15, 2024.Barlam said this was the third snake found within Umapad in the past two days.She said the barangay has many open areas where snakes could potentially inhabit.The captured snake has already been turned over to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources Central Visayas (DENR 7) Rescue Center for examination, which will determine the current state of the reptile, including its length.Barlam said that aside from Umapad, none of the remaining 26 barangays in the city had reported any snake sightings.Power interruption In a separate interview, Reb Biboy Cortes, the Umapad barangay captain, reported that the snake was found in one of the electric posts in Sitio Kalubihan 1.The snake caused a power interruption that lasted for about six hours from 3 a.m. Thursday, February 15.Residents believe the snake caused the explosion of the post's transformer where it reportedly coiled up.Cortes said the area surrounding the post contained a wide area with lots of trees and bushes where the snake could have lived. He believes the snake came out possibly to hunt for food.Cortes said the first snake was found in Purok Tamarind about three months ago. A resident tried to pet it, but it was later turned over to the authorities since the owner said he ran out of food to sustain the snake.The snake was believed to be some kind of house snake with a length of around two meters.The second snake sighting was in Purok Tambis, where a two-meter reticulated python was found also in an area that contained lots of trees and a mini poultry sometime this week. It had already been turned over to the authorities.Cortes said the third snake found on Wednesday, also a reticulated python, was more or less two meters as well.Do not killCortes advised residents that if they capture snakes, they should not kill them but instead turn them over to the barangay for proper rescue procedures.This is also to spare possible contamination, especially if the snake is venomous.Barlam also advised residents not to touch any snakes they may find in their area, but instead call their respective barangays to contact MCenro for assistance.She said once the MCenro is notified, they will coordinate with the Mandaue City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (MCDRRMO) to rescue the snake.The rescued snake will then be turned over to the DENR Rescue Center.El NiñoOn Thursday, February 15, public health experts gathered at the Department of Health (DOH) 7 in Cebu City to address the increasing number of cobra encounters in the region, particularly in Cebu, in recent months. According to the DOH, the disruption of habitats, including deforestation, has emerged as a crucial factor contributing to the increased snake activity.The health office also mentioned that the successive snake sightings could be related to the ongoing El Niño phenomenon, climate change, and human interference with natural habitats. In a report on January 29, Carlo Babiera, an ecosystems management specialist at the DENR 7, said the encroachment of human settlements into natural habitats has disrupted ecosystems, pushing snakes out of their accustomed territories to search for food in other places, including residential areas infested with rodents.Meanwhile, toxicologist Beethoven Bongon at the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center urged the public to always clean their surroundings as a preventive measure to reduce the attractiveness of homes to rats.Bongon assured the public that there is antivenom available for those who will receive the shot.The antivenom is available at the VSMMC Poison Control Center and is called polyvalent, effective against three cobra species, including King Cobras, Philippine Cobras, and Samar Cobras.

(HIC) Does the Philippines have casinos? WHAT would you do if you were in a tragic situation? Most people would prioritize saving themselves and their loved ones, but Ryan Conson was different.Conson, a 38-year-old volunteer firefighter from Barangay Looc, Mandaue City, fearlessly ran through blazing houses and pavements to put out the fire in Sitio Under the Bridge, located underneath the Mactan-Mandaue Bridge (also known as the first bridge) on Tuesday, March 12, 2024.He was one of the first responders who rushed to the site of the fire, prioritizing the safety of the entire community over his own.Peaceful lunchAt the Looc Gym on Thursday, March 14, Conson spoke to the media about his experience during the Tuesday fire. On Tuesday afternoon, enjoying a quiet lunch at home, Conson suddenly noticed black smoke in a nearby area. Conson wasted no time in rushing to their fire truck at the Barangay Hall to investigate the black smoke.“Padung mi didtos nasunogan, dayon nag set up mi direcho. Mao nang dagan kos sulod, nitira ko dayon. Di na gyud namo matabang kay dako na kaayo ang kayo, unya kusog na kaayo ang hangin sad. Hapit pa gani among fire truck nasunog,” said Conson.(On the way to the area affected by the fire, we set up quickly. I ran inside the fire zone and trained my fire hose on the fire immediately. Unfortunately, the fire had already become too large and the wind was too strong. Our fire truck even almost caught fire.)Despite the danger, Conson and his team bravely attempted to extinguish the fire, but it quickly spiraled out of their control.Home lost As the situation worsened, Conson quickly ran back home and handed his family, especially his child, to his siblings for safety. Afterward, he returned to his firefighting duties.After a few minutes, Conson faced the worst experience a firefighter could ever go through. While he was busy saving other houses from the flames, he lost his house.Conson narrated the heartbreaking moment when he had to battle the fire to prevent it from engulfing his home of 20 years.But his composure never faltered in fighting the fire. This time, he was not only saving his community but also neighboring areas from losing their homes with the fire getting more aggressive, just like he was. More than 500 families were eventually displaced by the fire after it burned 370 houses.Rise of a heroConson has a day job working as a staff member at a motorboat port near his residence in addition to his job as a volunteer firefighter. He said the fire incident that occurred in Sitio Paradise, also in Barangay Looc, on Nov. 22, 2022, which was close to his neighborhood, inspired him to join the firefighting brigade in his barangay.The Paradise fire destroyed about 600 homes, displacing 2,737 individuals, making it one of the largest fire incidents in Cebu in 2022.“I volunteered because I really wanted to help people,” said Conson. He then trained in firefighting techniques at the Bureau of Fire Protection Mandaue Office. Conson works as a volunteer firefighter and receives an honorarium of P3,500 a month. He is on call for two shifts, day or night, and promptly responds to any fire incident, even those outside his barangay when the help of their fire brigade is required.For him, his small salary does not matter as he finds happiness in saving people in fire incidents.His most memorable assignment was the fire last Tuesday. Conson is now one of the 515 families affected by the fire who have found temporary refuge at the Looc Gymnasium. The Mandaue City Government is currently hosting evacuees at the gymnasium and nearby Cesar Cabahug Elementary School.Sadly, Conson and his family were unable to save any of their belongings and only escaped the fire with their lives.The first-degree burns on his left arm, which he did not notice until the fire was successfully extinguished, was the only souvenir of his heroic deed and Sitio Under the Bridge’s tragic fate.While waiting for help from the government and other individuals, Conson’s patriotic heart remains, as he chooses to still be a volunteer firefighter despite his experience.“This is a new chapter of my life, but I will continue to help other people. I have been a volunteer firefighter for a year now,” he said in Cebuano.

AN OFFICIAL from the Mandaue City Environment and Natural Resources Office (MCenro) warned residents not to capture snakes they may find in their backyards or residential areas.Araceli Barlam, head of MCenro, said the residents should instead call the authorities for proper rescue and turnover operations.She made the statement after a reticulated python, commonly known as "sawa" in the Philippines, was found on an electric post in Barangay Umapad on Thursday, February 15, 2024.Barlam said this was the third snake found within Umapad in the past two days.She said the barangay has many open areas where snakes could potentially inhabit.The captured snake has already been turned over to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources Central Visayas (DENR 7) Rescue Center for examination, which will determine the current state of the reptile, including its length.Barlam said that aside from Umapad, none of the remaining 26 barangays in the city had reported any snake sightings.Power interruption In a separate interview, Reb Biboy Cortes, the Umapad barangay captain, reported that the snake was found in one of the electric posts in Sitio Kalubihan 1.The snake caused a power interruption that lasted for about six hours from 3 a.m. Thursday, February 15.Residents believe the snake caused the explosion of the post's transformer where it reportedly coiled up.Cortes said the area surrounding the post contained a wide area with lots of trees and bushes where the snake could have lived. He believes the snake came out possibly to hunt for food.Cortes said the first snake was found in Purok Tamarind about three months ago. A resident tried to pet it, but it was later turned over to the authorities since the owner said he ran out of food to sustain the snake.The snake was believed to be some kind of house snake with a length of around two meters.The second snake sighting was in Purok Tambis, where a two-meter reticulated python was found also in an area that contained lots of trees and a mini poultry sometime this week. It had already been turned over to the authorities.Cortes said the third snake found on Wednesday, also a reticulated python, was more or less two meters as well.Do not killCortes advised residents that if they capture snakes, they should not kill them but instead turn them over to the barangay for proper rescue procedures.This is also to spare possible contamination, especially if the snake is venomous.Barlam also advised residents not to touch any snakes they may find in their area, but instead call their respective barangays to contact MCenro for assistance.She said once the MCenro is notified, they will coordinate with the Mandaue City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (MCDRRMO) to rescue the snake.The rescued snake will then be turned over to the DENR Rescue Center.El NiñoOn Thursday, February 15, public health experts gathered at the Department of Health (DOH) 7 in Cebu City to address the increasing number of cobra encounters in the region, particularly in Cebu, in recent months. According to the DOH, the disruption of habitats, including deforestation, has emerged as a crucial factor contributing to the increased snake activity.The health office also mentioned that the successive snake sightings could be related to the ongoing El Niño phenomenon, climate change, and human interference with natural habitats. In a report on January 29, Carlo Babiera, an ecosystems management specialist at the DENR 7, said the encroachment of human settlements into natural habitats has disrupted ecosystems, pushing snakes out of their accustomed territories to search for food in other places, including residential areas infested with rodents.Meanwhile, toxicologist Beethoven Bongon at the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center urged the public to always clean their surroundings as a preventive measure to reduce the attractiveness of homes to rats.Bongon assured the public that there is antivenom available for those who will receive the shot.The antivenom is available at the VSMMC Poison Control Center and is called polyvalent, effective against three cobra species, including King Cobras, Philippine Cobras, and Samar Cobras. (HIC) licensed online casinos WHAT would you do if you were in a tragic situation? Most people would prioritize saving themselves and their loved ones, but Ryan Conson was different.Conson, a 38-year-old volunteer firefighter from Barangay Looc, Mandaue City, fearlessly ran through blazing houses and pavements to put out the fire in Sitio Under the Bridge, located underneath the Mactan-Mandaue Bridge (also known as the first bridge) on Tuesday, March 12, 2024.He was one of the first responders who rushed to the site of the fire, prioritizing the safety of the entire community over his own.Peaceful lunchAt the Looc Gym on Thursday, March 14, Conson spoke to the media about his experience during the Tuesday fire. On Tuesday afternoon, enjoying a quiet lunch at home, Conson suddenly noticed black smoke in a nearby area. Conson wasted no time in rushing to their fire truck at the Barangay Hall to investigate the black smoke.“Padung mi didtos nasunogan, dayon nag set up mi direcho. Mao nang dagan kos sulod, nitira ko dayon. Di na gyud namo matabang kay dako na kaayo ang kayo, unya kusog na kaayo ang hangin sad. Hapit pa gani among fire truck nasunog,” said Conson.(On the way to the area affected by the fire, we set up quickly. I ran inside the fire zone and trained my fire hose on the fire immediately. Unfortunately, the fire had already become too large and the wind was too strong. Our fire truck even almost caught fire.)Despite the danger, Conson and his team bravely attempted to extinguish the fire, but it quickly spiraled out of their control.Home lost As the situation worsened, Conson quickly ran back home and handed his family, especially his child, to his siblings for safety. Afterward, he returned to his firefighting duties.After a few minutes, Conson faced the worst experience a firefighter could ever go through. While he was busy saving other houses from the flames, he lost his house.Conson narrated the heartbreaking moment when he had to battle the fire to prevent it from engulfing his home of 20 years.But his composure never faltered in fighting the fire. This time, he was not only saving his community but also neighboring areas from losing their homes with the fire getting more aggressive, just like he was. More than 500 families were eventually displaced by the fire after it burned 370 houses.Rise of a heroConson has a day job working as a staff member at a motorboat port near his residence in addition to his job as a volunteer firefighter. He said the fire incident that occurred in Sitio Paradise, also in Barangay Looc, on Nov. 22, 2022, which was close to his neighborhood, inspired him to join the firefighting brigade in his barangay.The Paradise fire destroyed about 600 homes, displacing 2,737 individuals, making it one of the largest fire incidents in Cebu in 2022.“I volunteered because I really wanted to help people,” said Conson. He then trained in firefighting techniques at the Bureau of Fire Protection Mandaue Office. Conson works as a volunteer firefighter and receives an honorarium of P3,500 a month. He is on call for two shifts, day or night, and promptly responds to any fire incident, even those outside his barangay when the help of their fire brigade is required.For him, his small salary does not matter as he finds happiness in saving people in fire incidents.His most memorable assignment was the fire last Tuesday. Conson is now one of the 515 families affected by the fire who have found temporary refuge at the Looc Gymnasium. The Mandaue City Government is currently hosting evacuees at the gymnasium and nearby Cesar Cabahug Elementary School.Sadly, Conson and his family were unable to save any of their belongings and only escaped the fire with their lives.The first-degree burns on his left arm, which he did not notice until the fire was successfully extinguished, was the only souvenir of his heroic deed and Sitio Under the Bridge’s tragic fate.While waiting for help from the government and other individuals, Conson’s patriotic heart remains, as he chooses to still be a volunteer firefighter despite his experience.“This is a new chapter of my life, but I will continue to help other people. I have been a volunteer firefighter for a year now,” he said in Cebuano.
