THE continued lack of a septage treatment facility inside the male dormitory of the Cebu City Jail (CCJ), which is home to almost 9,000 persons deprived of liberty (PDL), is an environmental disaster waiting to happen.City Councilor Nestor Archival said a budget of around P100 million was allocated for a sewage treatment plant to collect and treat wastewater at the facility during the term of the late mayor Edgardo Labella.However, the project has yet to be bid out four years after it was proposed, Archival told SunStar Cebu’s online news and commentary program “Beyond the Headlines” on Monday, March 25, 2024. The CCJ male dormitory is located in the uptown barangay of Kalunasan across the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC). Both facilities are close to the Guadalupe River.On Feb. 21, 2024, a motion was carried in the City Council for the executive department to prioritize the construction of the wastewater treatment facility at the CCJ.“Naa gyud na gilabay sa kanal or padulong sa river, so it’s really a disaster. Timan-i kanang Guadalupe River kay usa na sa gikuhaan nato og water kay naa nay tubig sa ilawom,” Archival said. (Some of the wastewater is thrown directly into the canal or river, so it’s really a disaster. Take note that Guadalupe River is one of the places where we take our water because there is water beneath.)He said the septic tank at the male dormitory is already full, and overflows whenever one of the PDL goes to the bathroom. “Imagine, there are 9,000 PDL who use the CR (comfort room) twice or thrice in one day and all of this are going down into the canal, going down to the river,” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.The local legislator said the CCJ has been forced to discharge wastewater into bodies of water despite potential violations of environmental laws. “How are you going to manage? If you don’t release the waste in one week, the whole facility will be covered in human waste,” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.At the start of the 16th City Council in 2022, Archival said he passed a resolution that created a technical working group (TWG) led by City Councilor Francis Esparis, chairman of the committee on social service, to fast-track the bidding process. “Until now, hapit na lang mag-eleksyon (with the next election already near), that bidding has not been conducted,” Archval said. He said he received an unverified report that 50 percent of the project’s budget was realigned to other programs. Archival said he could not validate the report due to the inefficient workflow and process at City Hall in terms of following up on paperwork and documents. During Labella’s term, the male dormitory was described to be in a “state of disaster” due to the lack of an adequate sewage treatment facility, he said.He said the vice mayor now Mayor Michael Rama had tasked him to allocate funding for the project.SunStar Cebu tried to contact CCJ information officer JO1 Thea Bation for comment, but to no avail.In 2018, a complaint was lodged before the Cebu City Environment and Natural Resources regarding a “persistent pungent smell” from the CCJ posing health and environmental risks to inmates and nearby residents.In 2019, the Environmental Management Bureau 7 of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources 7 issued a cease and desist order to the CCJ for failing to meet wastewater standards. It recommended overhauling and retrofitting the facility’s wastewater system.Reactive Meanwhile, Archival described the City Government’s approach to problems as “reactive,” citing the City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office’s (CDRRMO) recent resolution that declared 28 upland barangays under a state of calamity. He pointed out that advisories and warnings on the dry spell were publicized a year ago, but the City Government did not capitalize on these to prepare to secure a steady source of water. Farmers from upland barangays struggle to plant crops due to the lack of water, he said. Without water, farmers have fewer produce to sell, adding to their financial burden.Once the council approves the CDRRMO’s declaration, affected barangays can use their calamity funds, while the City Government can use the P600 million in its calamity and quick response fund and the P100 million under the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Fund for necessary programs to address the problem. “Karon nangayo na og tubig ang kabukiran. Instead nga ang bukid ang source sa atong tubig, ang bukid na ang nangayo og tubig nato diri sa ubos,” Archival said. (The mountain barangays are now asking us in the lowlands for water when they are supposed to be the source of our water.)Archival said the City Government could have pushed for the construction of gabion dams upstream and retention ponds to store water during downpours. During the interview on “Beyond the Headlines,” Archival also expressed his concern over the non-issuance of excavation permits to the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) for its pipeline activities.He said he withdrew his resolution to ask the mayor to grant MCWD’s request because other council members are questioning the validity of the water district’s contract with a private supplier.Archival has announced that he might run for mayor in the midterm elections in 2025 with former mayor Tomas Osmeña as his running mate. However, the minority floor leader said his final decision will rest on securing enough financial support to fuel a campaign. / EHP What does 7 bet mean? Philippines AS THE April 30 consolidation deadline looms, the Cebu-based traditional public utility jeepney (TPUJ) operators group has slammed the slow consolidation process under the Public Utility Vehicle (PUV) Modernization Program, saying operators should not be blamed for not making the deadline.On Tuesday, April 9, 2024, Pagkakaisa ng mga Samahan ng Tsuper at Opereytor Nationwide (Piston)-Cebu president Greg Perez told SunStar Cebu that he has some members who have applied for the mandatory franchise consolidation since 2019 who have remained in the “application process” under the system of the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board Central Visayas (LTFRB 7).Perez said these operators are in limbo, unable to tell what went wrong with their applications and who to blame for their situation.So is it the fault of the transport cooperative or the LTFRB, he asked. On Monday, April 8, LTFRB Chairman Teofilo Guadiz III called on jeepney operators and drivers to work on their consolidation into cooperatives before the April 30 deadline set by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. passes, saying there will be no more extension of the deadline. “Nanulod sila og kooperatiba (sa) 2019 pa, pero ang problema kay naa lang gihapon sila nakasulod sa kooperatiba, pero wala pa sila ma-consolidate tungod nagtipun-og lang ang ilahang papel diha sa mga opisina sa cooperative,” Perez said. (They joined cooperatives in 2019 yet, but the problem is they are still in the cooperative, but they have not yet consolidated because the papers are just piling up in the office of the cooperatives.) He added that the Federation of Cebu Transport Cooperatives (FCTC) reported that it had consolidated 4,000 operators; however, upon their verification, they found the number to be only around 1,000. There were times the cooperatives asked for membership fees from the operators for them to be acknowledged as members and to be part of the consolidation, Perez said. “Problema kita sa pag-abot sa petsa (April) 30 sa atong mga operators nga dugay nang nisulod sa kooperatiba. Kinsay may pakisad-on ani? Ang operator pa ba gihapon sa panahon nga manakop na ang LTO (Land Transportation Office)? Ang LTFRB, ang operator ra gihapon nga wala nag-consolidate,” Perez said. (Our operators who have long joined cooperatives will have a problem when April 30 comes. Who will be considered at fault here? Will it still be the operator when the LTO begins making apprehensions? For the LTFRB, it will still be the operator, for not consolidating.)“Ang mga kooperatiba ug ang LTFRB man ang nalangay, ang nadugay. Mao unta toh gusto namo (ihangyo) nga ipagawas ang kamanduan ang LTFRB 7 nga dili panakpon ang mga nag-consolidate pa niadtong 2019 kay among tan-aw, dili sayop sa operator,” he added. (It’s the cooperatives and the LTFRB that have delayed things. That is why we wanted to request the release by LTFRB of an order not to apprehend those who attempted to consolidate since 2019 yet because the way we see it, it’s not the operators’ fault.)Once the April 30 deadline lapses, unconsolidated traditional jeepney operators will be designated as illegally operating their vehicles. Perez said there were times when these operators had to constantly follow up on and visit the offices of the cooperatives and the LTFRB 7, which forced the cooperatives and the LTFRB 7 to expedite the process, and yet many operators have not seen their consolidation, especially those who applied in 2019. He added that the LTFRB issued too late a memorandum allowing operators to withdraw their application from cooperatives with questionable processing time of application. Scrap modernizationOn the other hand, Perez said Piston-Cebu’s call remains, particularly for the government to scrap the PUV Modernization Program as it will eventually result in a total jeepney phaseout as they would be forced to give up their franchises and vehicles in exchange for buying what he called imported, expensive, non-sustainable and frail vehicles.The current modernization program must be replaced with a new program that is more responsive and balances the needs of the riding public and the transport sector, including the traditional PUJ operators and drivers.In a statement on Monday, LTFRB Chairman Guadiz said the agency would revoke the franchises of those who don’t meet the consolidation deadline.“We will revoke those franchises, and we will only be allowing those who have consolidated to ply the routes of Metro Manila,” Guadiz said in the statement.The Monday statement did not mention the routes outside Metro Manila and what would happen to operators who failed to meet the consolidation deadline in these parts.Last January, President Marcos extended the consolidation deadline for public utility vehicles to April 30.Under the PUV Modernization Program, the approval of the provisional authority for franchise is contingent upon jeepney drivers operating under a cooperative. The drivers would have to give up their individual franchises. A cooperative must have at least 10 members.It’s the eighth time that the consolidation deadline has been extended since 2017, Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista said last January when the April 30 deadline was announced.At that time, only around 67 percent of PUVs, UV Express units, mini-buses and public utility buses in the country had undergone consolidation. The three-month extension to April aims to raise those figures to 85 percent. / with CTL

AS THE April 30 consolidation deadline looms, the Cebu-based traditional public utility jeepney (TPUJ) operators group has slammed the slow consolidation process under the Public Utility Vehicle (PUV) Modernization Program, saying operators should not be blamed for not making the deadline.On Tuesday, April 9, 2024, Pagkakaisa ng mga Samahan ng Tsuper at Opereytor Nationwide (Piston)-Cebu president Greg Perez told SunStar Cebu that he has some members who have applied for the mandatory franchise consolidation since 2019 who have remained in the “application process” under the system of the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board Central Visayas (LTFRB 7).Perez said these operators are in limbo, unable to tell what went wrong with their applications and who to blame for their situation.So is it the fault of the transport cooperative or the LTFRB, he asked. On Monday, April 8, LTFRB Chairman Teofilo Guadiz III called on jeepney operators and drivers to work on their consolidation into cooperatives before the April 30 deadline set by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. passes, saying there will be no more extension of the deadline. “Nanulod sila og kooperatiba (sa) 2019 pa, pero ang problema kay naa lang gihapon sila nakasulod sa kooperatiba, pero wala pa sila ma-consolidate tungod nagtipun-og lang ang ilahang papel diha sa mga opisina sa cooperative,” Perez said. (They joined cooperatives in 2019 yet, but the problem is they are still in the cooperative, but they have not yet consolidated because the papers are just piling up in the office of the cooperatives.) He added that the Federation of Cebu Transport Cooperatives (FCTC) reported that it had consolidated 4,000 operators; however, upon their verification, they found the number to be only around 1,000. There were times the cooperatives asked for membership fees from the operators for them to be acknowledged as members and to be part of the consolidation, Perez said. “Problema kita sa pag-abot sa petsa (April) 30 sa atong mga operators nga dugay nang nisulod sa kooperatiba. Kinsay may pakisad-on ani? Ang operator pa ba gihapon sa panahon nga manakop na ang LTO (Land Transportation Office)? Ang LTFRB, ang operator ra gihapon nga wala nag-consolidate,” Perez said. (Our operators who have long joined cooperatives will have a problem when April 30 comes. Who will be considered at fault here? Will it still be the operator when the LTO begins making apprehensions? For the LTFRB, it will still be the operator, for not consolidating.)“Ang mga kooperatiba ug ang LTFRB man ang nalangay, ang nadugay. Mao unta toh gusto namo (ihangyo) nga ipagawas ang kamanduan ang LTFRB 7 nga dili panakpon ang mga nag-consolidate pa niadtong 2019 kay among tan-aw, dili sayop sa operator,” he added. (It’s the cooperatives and the LTFRB that have delayed things. That is why we wanted to request the release by LTFRB of an order not to apprehend those who attempted to consolidate since 2019 yet because the way we see it, it’s not the operators’ fault.)Once the April 30 deadline lapses, unconsolidated traditional jeepney operators will be designated as illegally operating their vehicles. Perez said there were times when these operators had to constantly follow up on and visit the offices of the cooperatives and the LTFRB 7, which forced the cooperatives and the LTFRB 7 to expedite the process, and yet many operators have not seen their consolidation, especially those who applied in 2019. He added that the LTFRB issued too late a memorandum allowing operators to withdraw their application from cooperatives with questionable processing time of application. Scrap modernizationOn the other hand, Perez said Piston-Cebu’s call remains, particularly for the government to scrap the PUV Modernization Program as it will eventually result in a total jeepney phaseout as they would be forced to give up their franchises and vehicles in exchange for buying what he called imported, expensive, non-sustainable and frail vehicles.The current modernization program must be replaced with a new program that is more responsive and balances the needs of the riding public and the transport sector, including the traditional PUJ operators and drivers.In a statement on Monday, LTFRB Chairman Guadiz said the agency would revoke the franchises of those who don’t meet the consolidation deadline.“We will revoke those franchises, and we will only be allowing those who have consolidated to ply the routes of Metro Manila,” Guadiz said in the statement.The Monday statement did not mention the routes outside Metro Manila and what would happen to operators who failed to meet the consolidation deadline in these parts.Last January, President Marcos extended the consolidation deadline for public utility vehicles to April 30.Under the PUV Modernization Program, the approval of the provisional authority for franchise is contingent upon jeepney drivers operating under a cooperative. The drivers would have to give up their individual franchises. A cooperative must have at least 10 members.It’s the eighth time that the consolidation deadline has been extended since 2017, Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista said last January when the April 30 deadline was announced.At that time, only around 67 percent of PUVs, UV Express units, mini-buses and public utility buses in the country had undergone consolidation. The three-month extension to April aims to raise those figures to 85 percent. / with CTL What does 7 bet mean? . Read our full guide to find the 🎖️ best online casinos in Philippines for 2023!

THE continued lack of a septage treatment facility inside the male dormitory of the Cebu City Jail (CCJ), which is home to almost 9,000 persons deprived of liberty (PDL), is an environmental disaster waiting to happen.City Councilor Nestor Archival said a budget of around P100 million was allocated for a sewage treatment plant to collect and treat wastewater at the facility during the term of the late mayor Edgardo Labella.However, the project has yet to be bid out four years after it was proposed, Archival told SunStar Cebu’s online news and commentary program “Beyond the Headlines” on Monday, March 25, 2024. The CCJ male dormitory is located in the uptown barangay of Kalunasan across the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC). Both facilities are close to the Guadalupe River.On Feb. 21, 2024, a motion was carried in the City Council for the executive department to prioritize the construction of the wastewater treatment facility at the CCJ.“Naa gyud na gilabay sa kanal or padulong sa river, so it’s really a disaster. Timan-i kanang Guadalupe River kay usa na sa gikuhaan nato og water kay naa nay tubig sa ilawom,” Archival said. (Some of the wastewater is thrown directly into the canal or river, so it’s really a disaster. Take note that Guadalupe River is one of the places where we take our water because there is water beneath.)He said the septic tank at the male dormitory is already full, and overflows whenever one of the PDL goes to the bathroom. “Imagine, there are 9,000 PDL who use the CR (comfort room) twice or thrice in one day and all of this are going down into the canal, going down to the river,” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.The local legislator said the CCJ has been forced to discharge wastewater into bodies of water despite potential violations of environmental laws. “How are you going to manage? If you don’t release the waste in one week, the whole facility will be covered in human waste,” he said in a mix of Cebuano and English.At the start of the 16th City Council in 2022, Archival said he passed a resolution that created a technical working group (TWG) led by City Councilor Francis Esparis, chairman of the committee on social service, to fast-track the bidding process. “Until now, hapit na lang mag-eleksyon (with the next election already near), that bidding has not been conducted,” Archval said. He said he received an unverified report that 50 percent of the project’s budget was realigned to other programs. Archival said he could not validate the report due to the inefficient workflow and process at City Hall in terms of following up on paperwork and documents. During Labella’s term, the male dormitory was described to be in a “state of disaster” due to the lack of an adequate sewage treatment facility, he said.He said the vice mayor now Mayor Michael Rama had tasked him to allocate funding for the project.SunStar Cebu tried to contact CCJ information officer JO1 Thea Bation for comment, but to no avail.In 2018, a complaint was lodged before the Cebu City Environment and Natural Resources regarding a “persistent pungent smell” from the CCJ posing health and environmental risks to inmates and nearby residents.In 2019, the Environmental Management Bureau 7 of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources 7 issued a cease and desist order to the CCJ for failing to meet wastewater standards. It recommended overhauling and retrofitting the facility’s wastewater system.Reactive Meanwhile, Archival described the City Government’s approach to problems as “reactive,” citing the City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office’s (CDRRMO) recent resolution that declared 28 upland barangays under a state of calamity. He pointed out that advisories and warnings on the dry spell were publicized a year ago, but the City Government did not capitalize on these to prepare to secure a steady source of water. Farmers from upland barangays struggle to plant crops due to the lack of water, he said. Without water, farmers have fewer produce to sell, adding to their financial burden.Once the council approves the CDRRMO’s declaration, affected barangays can use their calamity funds, while the City Government can use the P600 million in its calamity and quick response fund and the P100 million under the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Fund for necessary programs to address the problem. “Karon nangayo na og tubig ang kabukiran. Instead nga ang bukid ang source sa atong tubig, ang bukid na ang nangayo og tubig nato diri sa ubos,” Archival said. (The mountain barangays are now asking us in the lowlands for water when they are supposed to be the source of our water.)Archival said the City Government could have pushed for the construction of gabion dams upstream and retention ponds to store water during downpours. During the interview on “Beyond the Headlines,” Archival also expressed his concern over the non-issuance of excavation permits to the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) for its pipeline activities.He said he withdrew his resolution to ask the mayor to grant MCWD’s request because other council members are questioning the validity of the water district’s contract with a private supplier.Archival has announced that he might run for mayor in the midterm elections in 2025 with former mayor Tomas OsmeĂąa as his running mate. However, the minority floor leader said his final decision will rest on securing enough financial support to fuel a campaign. / EHP Who is the best soccer player in the Philippines? .

Pagkaganito anong mangyayari jan hindi siya sisipot, pag hindi siya sumipot, mapapacontempt siya…mas malaking gulo, kung makakapunta siya sagutin niya lahat ng tanong, edi tapos na,” he said.(He has an opportunity both in the House and Senate hearings to tell his side of the story.

We are trying to be fair here and allowing him the opportunity… I think he should take advantage of it,” he added.The House committee on legislative franchises earlier issued a subpoena against Quiboloy amid its ongoing investigation against Sonshine Media Network International (SMNI), which is owned by Swara Sug Media Corporation, the broadcasting arm of KJC.SMNI was accused of involvement in the proliferation of fake news after two of its program hosts claimed that House Speaker Martin Romualdez spent P1.8 billion in just a year for his foreign trips.Romualdez denied the claims while one of the hosts admitted that such information was unverified.The Senate also issued a subpoena against Quiboloy on February 19 after he repeatedly refused to heed the committee’s call for him to face its ongoing investigation on the alleged crimes committed within the KJC.Several former members of KJC faced the ongoing Senate probe where they narrated their ordeal at the hands of Quiboloy and other high-ranking officials of the organization.The complainants include several women who claimed to have been sexually abused by the religious group leader.Earlier, Quiboloy maintained that he will not submit himself to the inquiry being conducted by the Senate or the House of Representatives, as he will only face the accusations against him in a court of law.
