THE Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) insists it has nothing to do with the rift between Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) and Cebu City Government, with its administrator saying the agency is neutral.LWUA administrator Jose Moises Salonga said he has observed that the conflict is more personal.“I would like to make it clear that LWUA is apolitical on this,” Salonga said in response to questions regarding the lockdown of MCWD’s main office on Tuesday, April 16, 2024.“LWUA will not get involved in this rift,” Salonga told SunStar Cebu in a text message Friday, April 19. “As far as LWUA is concerned, whatever allegations about politics are uncalled for. As a regulator, we will not allow any person or entity to use any water district to be used for politics.”The rift between the Cebu City Government under Mayor Michael Rama and the MCWD board, led by chairman Jose Daluz III, began last year. The mayor attempted to remove Daluz, and directors Miguelito Pato and Jodelyn May Seno on multiple occasions, but he failed.The LWUA, which regulates water districts, suspended Daluz and the rest of the board for six months last March 15, while it appointed an interim board to look into high non-revenue water loss among other issues at MCWD. It also suspended general manager (GM) Edgar Donoso for 90 days starting Friday, April 12. However, Daluz, Pato and Seno, and Donoso do not recognize the LWUA’s authority to suspend them, leading to tensions at the MCWD main office, where the four continue to hold office.The rift between Cebu City and the Daluz-led MCWD was on full display last week.On Monday morning, April 15, John Dx Lapid, the LWUA-appoined officer-in-charge (OIC) GM of the MCWD, was prohibited from entering the water district’s main office in downtown Cebu City.This after the Daluz-led board implemented a lockdown, prohibiting Lapid and members of the interim board of directors from entering the water district’s premises.However, past 1 p.m. Monday, Lapid was able to enter MCWD’s office with the help of the Cebu City Government officials led by City Administrator Collin Rosell.Salonga told SunStar Cebu that LWUA had asked for “assistance to maintain peace and order, and secure MCWD’s facilities” from the Cebu City Government and Cebu City Police Office.Later in the evening, Lapid, Rosell, City Budget Officer Jerone Castillo and Cebu City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office head Harold Alcontin were seen arriving at the MCWD main office at 9:44 p.m. in a video sent to SunStar Cebu.Lapid attempted to open Donoso’s office, but to no avail. However, Alcontin was able to open it using an ATM card. In a press conference Wednesday, April 17, Rosell said the security guard opened the door for them. He also denied allegations that they were there to get some documents.On Tuesday, April 16, MCWD accused Lapid of barricading and cordoning off the MCWD main office in downtown Cebu City after the streets in the vicinity were suddenly closed to vehicular traffic in the morning.But Lapid said only the City Government could implement a road closure.In a press conference April 17, Rama denied being behind the lockdown, saying the City was only providing assistance to the LWUA.CasesFor the alleged forcible entry of Donoso’s office, the Daluz-led board will be filing complaints against Rosell, Castillo, Alcontin and Cebu City Legal Officer Vincent Carlo Gimena before the Office of the Ombudsman-Visayas on Monday, April 22.The city officials will face charges for conduct unbecoming of a public official, violation of ethical standards and harassment.Used for politicsLapid announced on Facebook last April 16 that he was resigning as OIC GM because he was being used for politics. However, hours later, the line “I am being used for politics already” was removed.When asked about this, Salonga said, “Atty. Lapid has personally told me that LWUA did not use him for political activities or gain.”Regarding Lapid’s resignation, Salonga expressed gratitude to Lapid for accepting the challenging role of OIC GM.“It is unfortunate that due to the harassment he received on (Monday) barring his entry to MCWD, threatening that his vehicle will be towed, being threatened with lawsuits, among many others—LWUA understands his decision to resign as the OIC GM. Let’s not forget the emotional weight and toll of all this to him and his family,” Salonga said. / AML Types of Casino Games in the Philippines Philippines THE Philippines and Australia inked on Thursday, February 29, 2024, three agreements that are seen to enhance the two countries’ information sharing, capability building, and interoperability in various issues.President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said the agreements cover the maritime domain and maritime environment, cyber and critical technology, and the effective implementation of the respective competition laws and policies of the two countries.“The three agreements add to the more than 120 agreements that our two countries have signed through the decades. And these are in various fields, including defense cooperation, air services, education, research, scientific and cultural cooperation, amongst others,” he said.Marcos said the agreement on maritime domain is aimed to enhance the cooperation between the Philippines and Australia in order to strengthen the civil military cooperation, promote international law and rules-based international order, safeguard the marine environment and cultural heritage, enhance defense engagements, and establish avenues for dialogue among relevant agencies.As he addressed the Australia Parliament, Marcos highlighted the need for Australia and the Philippines to join forces along with their allies against threats to the rule of law, to stability and peace in the Indo-Pacific region, as well as to reinforce each other’s strength and continue to protect peace and oppose actions that violates international laws.Australia is one of the only two partners with which the Philippines has a Visiting Forces Agreement.“We have long known that our prosperity and development are anchored on the peace and stability of the Indo-Pacific. Today, that peace, that stability, and our continued success, have come under threat,” said Marcos.“Once again, we must come together as partners to face the common challenges confronting the region. Not one single country can do this by itself. No single force alone can counter them by themselves,” he added.Marcos reiterated that the Philippine government will not waver in its resolve not to allow any foreign power to take even a single square inch of the Philippine sovereignty amid prevailing issues in the West Philippine Sea (WPS), which he earlier described as worrisome.“I shall never tire of repeating the declaration that I made from the first day that I took office: I will not allow any attempt by any foreign power to take even one square inch of our sovereign territory,” he said.“The challenges that we face may be formidable, but equally formidable is our resolve. We will not yield. Then as now, the security and continued prosperity of the region -- of countries like Australia -- relies upon that effort. Just as we fought to build our rules-based international order, so are we now fighting to protect it,” he said.He maintained, though, that the Philippines has an abiding interest in keeping its seas free and open, and in ensuring unimpeded passage and freedom of navigation as he noted the importance of upholding, preservation and defending the unified and universal character of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea as the constitution of the oceans.In a joint press conference after a meeting with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Marcos said the two countries discussed ways to amplify their joint maritime activities, as they both acknowledge the ties between Australia and the Philippines particularly on defense, maritime cooperation, non-traditional security concerns, trade and investment, development cooperation, multilateral collaboration and people-to-people linkages.“Defense and security remain a key area of cooperation between the Philippines and of Australia. We look forward to amplifying our joint activities and the capacity-building efforts in this regard,” said Marcos.In terms of cyber and critical technology, Marcos said the Philippines is looking forward to sharing information and best practices with Australia, including the conduct of capacity building, promoting a secured digital economy, and achieving greater understanding of the application of international law norms in cyberspace.The cooperation on effective implementation of the respective competition laws and policies of the Philippines and Australia is one of the practical ways of the two countries to strengthen economic relations through the sharing of best practices and the conduct of capacity building on matters involving merger regulations, competition laws, and investigative techniques relevant to implementing competition laws.Marcos and Albanese also discussed greater bilateral economic cooperation, which will allow both the Philippines and Australia to withstand shocks, to be resilient against economic coercion, and to provide an enabling environment for businesses and labor markets.He added that they both look forward to more robust people-to-people ties to drive greater cooperation between the two countries and its peoples.“The significant Filipino diaspora, the fifth largest immigrant community here in Australia, has contributed significantly to the economic and cultural wellbeing not only of our country, but yours as well,” the President said.“It is also an undeniable indicator of Australia’s openness to embrace a globalized and interconnected world. Both the Philippines and Australia welcome future consultations and dialogues as we explore and map the uncharted waters that can bring in new opportunities for a closer and stronger relationship between our two countries,” he added.

And these are in various fields, including defense cooperation, air services, education, research, scientific and cultural cooperation, amongst others,” he said.Marcos said the agreement on maritime domain is aimed to enhance the cooperation between the Philippines and Australia in order to strengthen the civil military cooperation, promote international law and rules-based international order, safeguard the marine environment and cultural heritage, enhance defense engagements, and establish avenues for dialogue among relevant agencies.As he addressed the Australia Parliament, Marcos highlighted the need for Australia and the Philippines to join forces along with their allies against threats to the rule of law, to stability and peace in the Indo-Pacific region, as well as to reinforce each other’s strength and continue to protect peace and oppose actions that violates international laws.Australia is one of the only two partners with which the Philippines has a Visiting Forces Agreement.“We have long known that our prosperity and development are anchored on the peace and stability of the Indo-Pacific. Today, that peace, that stability, and our continued success, have come under threat,” said Marcos.“Once again, we must come together as partners to face the common challenges confronting the region. Not one single country can do this by itself. No single force alone can counter them by themselves,” he added.Marcos reiterated that the Philippine government will not waver in its resolve not to allow any foreign power to take even a single square inch of the Philippine sovereignty amid prevailing issues in the West Philippine Sea (WPS), which he earlier described as worrisome.“I shall never tire of repeating the declaration that I made from the first day that I took office: I will not allow any attempt by any foreign power to take even one square inch of our sovereign territory,” he said.“The challenges that we face may be formidable, but equally formidable is our resolve. We will not yield. Then as now, the security and continued prosperity of the region -- of countries like Australia -- relies upon that effort. Just as we fought to build our rules-based international order, so are we now fighting to protect it,” he said.He maintained, though, that the Philippines has an abiding interest in keeping its seas free and open, and in ensuring unimpeded passage and freedom of navigation as he noted the importance of upholding, preservation and defending the unified and universal character of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea as the constitution of the oceans.In a joint press conference after a meeting with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Marcos said the two countries discussed ways to amplify their joint maritime activities, as they both acknowledge the ties between Australia and the Philippines particularly on defense, maritime cooperation, non-traditional security concerns, trade and investment, development cooperation, multilateral collaboration and people-to-people linkages.“Defense and security remain a key area of cooperation between the Philippines and of Australia. We look forward to amplifying our joint activities and the capacity-building efforts in this regard,” said Marcos.In terms of cyber and critical technology, Marcos said the Philippines is looking forward to sharing information and best practices with Australia, including the conduct of capacity building, promoting a secured digital economy, and achieving greater understanding of the application of international law norms in cyberspace.The cooperation on effective implementation of the respective competition laws and policies of the Philippines and Australia is one of the practical ways of the two countries to strengthen economic relations through the sharing of best practices and the conduct of capacity building on matters involving merger regulations, competition laws, and investigative techniques relevant to implementing competition laws.Marcos and Albanese also discussed greater bilateral economic cooperation, which will allow both the Philippines and Australia to withstand shocks, to be resilient against economic coercion, and to provide an enabling environment for businesses and labor markets.He added that they both look forward to more robust people-to-people ties to drive greater cooperation between the two countries and its peoples.“The significant Filipino diaspora, the fifth largest immigrant community here in Australia, has contributed significantly to the economic and cultural wellbeing not only of our country, but yours as well,” the President said.“It is also an undeniable indicator of Australia’s openness to embrace a globalized and interconnected world. Both the Philippines and Australia welcome future consultations and dialogues as we explore and map the uncharted waters that can bring in new opportunities for a closer and stronger relationship between our two countries,” he added. (TPM/SunStar Philippines) licensed online casinos THE Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) disowned the operational documents currently circulating on social media showing President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. as among the targets of an anti-drug operation in 2012.In a statement, PDEA said such documents were not in its Plans and Operations Reports Management Information System (Pormis).“PDEA ran a check through its Plans and Operations Reports Management Information System or Pormis and found that no such operation was logged on said date,” it said.“A critical feature of Pormis is that one cannot insert or tamper with recorded operations. All pre-operation documents are serialized and recorded in this database. This ensures the system's integrity and negates any doubt on the data the system contains,” it added.The agency cautioned the public to be more careful in believing such “fake news,” noting that such documents can be generated through artificial intelligence.The documents include an Authority to Operate and a Pre-Operation Report, both dated March 11, 2012 allegedly issued by PDEA.Marcos was among the targets as stated in the pre-operation report along with some unidentified male and female cohorts.It was stated in the document that there was information that the target personalities were “frequently using illegal drugs” inside a condominium unit in Makati City.
