Philippines THE executive department of the Cebu City Government is asking for an additional P205,974,032 for the Palarong Pambansa (Palaro). In a phone interview on Thursday, Feb. 22, 2024, City Councilor Noel Wenceslao, chairman of the committee on budget and finance, said Mayor Michael Rama already signed the request, which will be included in the first supplemental budget that has not yet been submitted to the City Council.The supplemental budget also includes the charter bonus of city employees.Wenceslao said the amount is on top of the approved P200 million allocated for the Palaro, which also covers the rehabilitation of the Cebu City Sports Center (CCSC), the main venue of the annual multi-sport event. In a phone interview on Friday, Feb. 23, City Councilor Donaldo Hontiveros said the additional funding will cover the installation of LED outdoor-field lights at the CCSC amounting to P23 million, the construction and installation of digital-visual LED display with support frames and posts worth P135.186 million and the construction of the grandstand extension amounting to P47 million.The grandstand extension will be built on the N.

Then it was established that the closing ceremony will be at the SRP (South Road Properties),” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.According to him, the budget for the Palaro is comprehensive, with a significant portion allocated for health services amounting to P5 million.He said another portion of the budget is allocated for technical officials and rental of playing venues, as well as purchase of sports equipment.He said more than a million is allocated for the janitorial services at the playing venues.Original budgetHe said the original budget covers the following:• A subsidy of P4.5 million for the regional athletic delegation; • P7.2 million for organizing the learning convention for athletes and student leaders; • Over P11 million for financial assistance to officials; • P5 million for food and accommodations for committee members from the central office; • P2 million as financial subsidy for the Cebu City schools division to cover meetings and conferences leading to the Palaro; • P20 million for rental and repair maintenance; • P15 million to cover expenses of the opening and closing ceremonies; • P22 million for shower rooms and portalets intended for use during the Central Visayas Regional Athletic Association in May; and• P18 million for food for all personnel, as well as tokens, souvenirs, and other expenses.Hontiveros said the biggest portion of the initial budget will be spent on special events and other related activities, but he did not specify the amount or what the activities are.Once the rehabilitation and civil works at the CCSC and other sports facilities are completed, they hope Cebu City can host Asian competitions, he said. That’s why they are asking for additional funding, he added.After the memorandum of agreement for the hosting of the Palaro was signed last Feb. 2, Hontiveros said the City Government allocated a budget of P200 million for the games. John Pages, Cebu City Sports Commission chairman, said the budget would cover the improvement of the sports facilities and the 20 schools that would be used as billeting quarters, the rehabilitation of the CCSC, as well as the procurement of sports equipment.The Palaro is scheduled to take place from July 6-17, with an expected delegation of about 10,000 to 12,000 individuals, which will be composed of student-athletes and coaches.The schedule of events includes delegate arrivals on July 6 and 7, and solidarity meetings and refresher courses on July 7 and 8.

TO AVOID risking students’ health due to the extreme heat, the Cebu Provincial Government has suspended all classes from kindergarten to Grade 12 in the public schools in the entire province starting Friday, April 5, 2024, until further notice.Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia issued on Friday Memorandum 22-2024, suspending classes immediately due to the high heat index. She directed the Department of Education (DepEd) in Cebu Province and mayors under the Provincial Government to strictly enforce the memorandum.Garcia did not specify if only face-to-face classes were suspended.Before Garcia’s memo, some public schools in the province were encouraged to transition to online classes and revert to distance learning, following earlier declarations by mayors suspending face-to-face (F2F) classes due to hot weather.In a text message on Friday, April 5, DepEd Cebu Province superintendent Dr. Senen Priscilo Paulin told SunStar Cebu that they will abide by the governor’s directive in the interest of their learners and personnel.However, Paulin had yet to respond to SunStar Cebu’s inquiries about how DepEd plans to make up for missed classes to meet the required number of school days.SunStar Cebu tried to reach DepEd 7 Director Salustiano Jimenez regarding the affected school days, but he had yet to respond as of this writing.Mixed reactionsIn an online forum posted on SunStar Cebu’s Facebook page on Friday, netizens shared mixed reactions to the suspension of classes.Some netizens commented that the suspension could result in a longer school year, while others feared that students might just use their free time for outdoor activities and vacations.“Dili man cguro kinahanglan i-suspenso ang klase. Pwede man gud mag online or di kaha mag module lang sa mintras tanto. Para dili pud mabiya sa mga angay buluhaton sa skwelahan,” a netizen commented.(I don’t think it’s necessary to suspend classes. It’s possible to have online classes or just use modules in the meantime. This way, students won’t miss out on schoolwork that needs to be done.)In separate interviews, a student and some parents expressed preferrence to maintain their current class schedule and setup, arguing that class suspension could delay students’ academic progress.Josef Toquero, a senior high school student, disagrees with the implementation of a partial suspension of face-to-face classes, as he thinks this might affect their time and studies in school.“If I declare ni siya nga from 6 to 11 a.m., maka benefit sad mi ana, pero murag ma delay pud ang pagtudlo sa teacher sa students kay naa ra bay subject na sa hapon siya klasehan. Tapos mostly eight subjects ra ba tas dili maigo sa kana ra nga oras,” said Toquero.“For me, I don’t agree with the suspension, because the children will just be using their gadgets more,” said Junesya Yta, a parent of two school-aged children, in Cebuano. “If they are in school, at least someone is supervising them and they can dedicate more time to their classes.”Emma Canasa, another parent, said as long as her children’s classrooms are not crowded and are properly ventilated, suspension of classes is not required.Meanwhile, despite these reservations, a parent acknowledged the necessity of the measure.“For me, it’s better if the classes will be suspended. It’s best to extend the suspension to the whole day because of the heat. Because even if they will move the classes to 6 to 11 a.m., they will still experience the intense heat at noon,” Ma. Joji Mendajaol, a concerned citizen, said in Cebuano.Garcia’s order came after the declaration of 22 local government units (LGUs), 20 of them under the jurisdiction of the Provincial Government, that they would suspend F2F classes and modify the delivery mode of learning. These LGUs include the municipalities of Asturias, Badian, Balamban, Compostela, Consolacion, Cordova, Liloan, Medellin, Minglanilla, Poro, Ronda, San Fernando, San Remigio, Sibonga, Tabogon, Tabuelan, Tuburan, and the cities of Lapu-Lapu, Naga, Talisay, and Toledo.These LGUs have implemented alternative delivery modes of learning, such as shifting to online or modular printed modes, adjusting to half-day class hours, and adopting a blended learning approach, based on the locations of schools, considering internet connectivity.Mandaue City, which first implemented the blended learning approach, has altered it and mandated the suspension of face-to-face classes.The Cebu City Government, however, has granted school principals discretion in the suspension of classes. However, Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama has proposed a shift to partial face-to-face classes from 6 to 11 a.m.Jimenez last Wednesday said LGUs can suspend face-to-face classes in times of calamities. He said public and private school administrators are authorized to transition to modular classes “in cases of unfavorable weather and environment, such as, but not limited to high temperatures,” by DepEd Order 37 of 2022.Weather bureau Pagasa forecast a 38 degree Celsius heat index or apparent temperature in Cebu for Saturday, April 6. / EHP, with reports from Jay Adobo and Joshua Usigan / BIPSU Interns

Bacalso side of the CCSC, which is currently being used as a parking lot, Hontiveros said.He said the reason they requested additional funding is because these installations and constructions were not included in the initial P200 million budget when it was approved. “During the budget deliberations last year, we weren’t able to conduct a walkthrough with Mayor Mike of what he envisioned of the proposed venue for the opening. Then it was established that the closing ceremony will be at the SRP (South Road Properties),” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.According to him, the budget for the Palaro is comprehensive, with a significant portion allocated for health services amounting to P5 million.He said another portion of the budget is allocated for technical officials and rental of playing venues, as well as purchase of sports equipment.He said more than a million is allocated for the janitorial services at the playing venues.Original budgetHe said the original budget covers the following:• A subsidy of P4.5 million for the regional athletic delegation; • P7.2 million for organizing the learning convention for athletes and student leaders; • Over P11 million for financial assistance to officials; • P5 million for food and accommodations for committee members from the central office; • P2 million as financial subsidy for the Cebu City schools division to cover meetings and conferences leading to the Palaro; • P20 million for rental and repair maintenance; • P15 million to cover expenses of the opening and closing ceremonies; • P22 million for shower rooms and portalets intended for use during the Central Visayas Regional Athletic Association in May; and• P18 million for food for all personnel, as well as tokens, souvenirs, and other expenses.Hontiveros said the biggest portion of the initial budget will be spent on special events and other related activities, but he did not specify the amount or what the activities are.Once the rehabilitation and civil works at the CCSC and other sports facilities are completed, they hope Cebu City can host Asian competitions, he said. That’s why they are asking for additional funding, he added.After the memorandum of agreement for the hosting of the Palaro was signed last Feb. 2, Hontiveros said the City Government allocated a budget of P200 million for the games. John Pages, Cebu City Sports Commission chairman, said the budget would cover the improvement of the sports facilities and the 20 schools that would be used as billeting quarters, the rehabilitation of the CCSC, as well as the procurement of sports equipment.The Palaro is scheduled to take place from July 6-17, with an expected delegation of about 10,000 to 12,000 individuals, which will be composed of student-athletes and coaches.The schedule of events includes delegate arrivals on July 6 and 7, and solidarity meetings and refresher courses on July 7 and 8. The opening ceremony will be held on July 9 at the CCSC, but the 28-sport competition will not officially start until July 11 and end on 15. The closing ceremony on July 16 will be at the SRP, where this year’s Sinulog Festival was held. The delegations will depart on July 17. licensed online casinos TO AVOID risking students’ health due to the extreme heat, the Cebu Provincial Government has suspended all classes from kindergarten to Grade 12 in the public schools in the entire province starting Friday, April 5, 2024, until further notice.Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia issued on Friday Memorandum 22-2024, suspending classes immediately due to the high heat index. She directed the Department of Education (DepEd) in Cebu Province and mayors under the Provincial Government to strictly enforce the memorandum.Garcia did not specify if only face-to-face classes were suspended.Before Garcia’s memo, some public schools in the province were encouraged to transition to online classes and revert to distance learning, following earlier declarations by mayors suspending face-to-face (F2F) classes due to hot weather.In a text message on Friday, April 5, DepEd Cebu Province superintendent Dr. Senen Priscilo Paulin told SunStar Cebu that they will abide by the governor’s directive in the interest of their learners and personnel.However, Paulin had yet to respond to SunStar Cebu’s inquiries about how DepEd plans to make up for missed classes to meet the required number of school days.SunStar Cebu tried to reach DepEd 7 Director Salustiano Jimenez regarding the affected school days, but he had yet to respond as of this writing.Mixed reactionsIn an online forum posted on SunStar Cebu’s Facebook page on Friday, netizens shared mixed reactions to the suspension of classes.Some netizens commented that the suspension could result in a longer school year, while others feared that students might just use their free time for outdoor activities and vacations.“Dili man cguro kinahanglan i-suspenso ang klase. Pwede man gud mag online or di kaha mag module lang sa mintras tanto. Para dili pud mabiya sa mga angay buluhaton sa skwelahan,” a netizen commented.(I don’t think it’s necessary to suspend classes. It’s possible to have online classes or just use modules in the meantime. This way, students won’t miss out on schoolwork that needs to be done.)In separate interviews, a student and some parents expressed preferrence to maintain their current class schedule and setup, arguing that class suspension could delay students’ academic progress.Josef Toquero, a senior high school student, disagrees with the implementation of a partial suspension of face-to-face classes, as he thinks this might affect their time and studies in school.“If I declare ni siya nga from 6 to 11 a.m., maka benefit sad mi ana, pero murag ma delay pud ang pagtudlo sa teacher sa students kay naa ra bay subject na sa hapon siya klasehan. Tapos mostly eight subjects ra ba tas dili maigo sa kana ra nga oras,” said Toquero.“For me, I don’t agree with the suspension, because the children will just be using their gadgets more,” said Junesya Yta, a parent of two school-aged children, in Cebuano. “If they are in school, at least someone is supervising them and they can dedicate more time to their classes.”Emma Canasa, another parent, said as long as her children’s classrooms are not crowded and are properly ventilated, suspension of classes is not required.Meanwhile, despite these reservations, a parent acknowledged the necessity of the measure.“For me, it’s better if the classes will be suspended. It’s best to extend the suspension to the whole day because of the heat. Because even if they will move the classes to 6 to 11 a.m., they will still experience the intense heat at noon,” Ma. Joji Mendajaol, a concerned citizen, said in Cebuano.Garcia’s order came after the declaration of 22 local government units (LGUs), 20 of them under the jurisdiction of the Provincial Government, that they would suspend F2F classes and modify the delivery mode of learning. These LGUs include the municipalities of Asturias, Badian, Balamban, Compostela, Consolacion, Cordova, Liloan, Medellin, Minglanilla, Poro, Ronda, San Fernando, San Remigio, Sibonga, Tabogon, Tabuelan, Tuburan, and the cities of Lapu-Lapu, Naga, Talisay, and Toledo.These LGUs have implemented alternative delivery modes of learning, such as shifting to online or modular printed modes, adjusting to half-day class hours, and adopting a blended learning approach, based on the locations of schools, considering internet connectivity.Mandaue City, which first implemented the blended learning approach, has altered it and mandated the suspension of face-to-face classes.The Cebu City Government, however, has granted school principals discretion in the suspension of classes. However, Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama has proposed a shift to partial face-to-face classes from 6 to 11 a.m.Jimenez last Wednesday said LGUs can suspend face-to-face classes in times of calamities. He said public and private school administrators are authorized to transition to modular classes “in cases of unfavorable weather and environment, such as, but not limited to high temperatures,” by DepEd Order 37 of 2022.Weather bureau Pagasa forecast a 38 degree Celsius heat index or apparent temperature in Cebu for Saturday, April 6. / EHP, with reports from Jay Adobo and Joshua Usigan / BIPSU Interns
