ALTHOUGH the construction of the Cebu Bus Rapid Transit (CBRT) project’s “Link to the Port” feature has yet to begin, several motorists and officials are already anticipating its negative effects on the traffic in the downtown area.The feature, according to CBRT project manager Norvin Imbong, will start at the intersection of P. del Rosario St./N. Bacalso Ave. and Osmeña Blvd. to M.J. Cuenco Ave. in front of the Plaza Independencia.Imbong, in a text message to SunStar Cebu on Friday, April 5, 2024, said the stretch will be improved by asphalting the road, fixing the drainage system, and installing street lights.He also clarified that no BRT buses will traverse the route.Imbong said the road will be closed once implementation starts, but its effect will only be “minimal.”“Kapag may road closure the effect is minimal kasi (If there is road closure the effect is minimal as the) asphalting will be done in the evening,” he said.Cebu City Transportation Office (CCTO) legal officer Kent Francesco Jongoy, in a chat message to SunStar Cebu on Sunday, April 7, pointed out that the “Link to the Port” feature will also include extending the sidewalk, which “will greatly affect the existing traffic flow in the area.”Jongoy said the City Government has only approved the asphalting, adding that the sidewalk extension design is still subject for approval.The road closure will start at the intersection of P. Del Rosario St./ N. Bacalso Ave. and Osmeña Blvd. to M.J. Cuenco Ave. in front of the Plaza Independencia.That stretch is one of the busiest streets in the city as it connects the downtown area to the uptown area. It is usually filled with all sorts of public utility vehicles (PUVs) as well as private vehicles.Noeh Godinez, who passes Osmeña Blvd. every day to get to his work in Lapu-Lapu City, said he welcomed the installation of street lights in the area, but he questioned the need to asphalt the road.Godinez, who rides a motorcycle to work, said the move may worsen traffic congestion.“There’s no need to destroy the road and asphalt it because there’s nothing wrong with the road in the Colon area. If they proceed with asphalting, this will only add to the existing traffic in the area,” he said in Cebuano.Another motorist was confused as to why the downtown area was included in the CBRT project when none of its roads are part of the route.“It will only cause heavy traffic, considering the narrow road in Colon area while there are so many jeepney stops and pedestrian,” said John Aguaviva.Cebu City Councilor James Anthony Cuenco, in a text message to SunStar Cebu on Sunday, said he is aware of the “Link to the Port” feature.He said he will only object to asphalting existing roads that are “evidently still in good order and condition.”He said the council learned during its executive session last Wednesday, April 3, that there was no need to destroy the existing road and apply new cement for the bus lanes along the first package route since the new cemented roads are still on the same level as those that were destroyed.“Such wasteful practice of spending public funds, not to mention the gross inconvenience it has caused the public, should be condemned and those found responsible be held accountable,” he said.Jongoy said this part of the project should have been discussed during the inception of the construction in 2023 so the CCTO could prepare a traffic management plan, particularly to address PUV routes.PUVs coming from the southern part of Cebu City, including those coming from cities of Naga and Talisay, pass by the Osmeña Blvd. and the downtown area.However, he said there will be no road closure as long as the design is not amenable to the City Government.Jongoy said some portions of Osmeña Blvd. going to the Plaza Independencia require maintenance, but since it is a national road, it is under the jurisdiction of the Department of Public Works and Highways.Imbong said on Sunday that they are still waiting for the City to approve the “Link to the Port” feature, which is in line with Cebu City’s goal to pedestrianize the city’s heritage district, which is the downtown area.On Saturday, April 6, the CBRT posted on its Facebook page that construction of the bus station near the Cebu Normal University has already started, while the infrastructure works on the foundation of the bus station near the Cebu South Bus Terminal are nearing completion. / JJL Which app is best for earning money? Philippines THE Mandaue City Government has signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) with the Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP) Cebu City Chapter to expedite the release of certain inmates, particularly those under preventive detention, to help decongest the Mandaue City Jail. The agreement was made through the program “Humanity Behind Bars: An Integrated Jail Decongestion and Management” at the Office of the City Mayor on Monday, Feb. 26, 2024.The MOA signing was attended by officials of the Mandaue City Government and the Mandaue City Police Office (MCPO), and representatives from the Mandaue City Jail male and female dormitories, among others. Participants discussed the key components of the program which include the introduction of a digital platform called Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDL) Management Data designed to inventory and monitor the case status of PDLs, decongest jails, and facilitate efficient correctional facility management.During the event, the IBP Cebu City Chapter presented Oplan Bilis Laya, a legal aid service aimed at assisting in the timely release of PDLs who have completed their sentence or are eligible for probation, pardon, parole, or early release. The service is provided with the help of law students who work under the supervision of the IBP Cebu City Legal Aid Service Group. The IBP Cebu City Chapter has established MOAs with Cebu law schools for their various initiatives.Challenges Mary Grace Casano, executive director for legal aid of the IBP Cebu City Chapter core team, presented common challenges faced by courts and jail facilities that impede the Philippine justice system. The challenges include institutional barriers such as the lack of drug courts causing delays in court proceedings. According to the IBP, there is an unbalanced number of drug courts even though 90 percent of PDL cases involve violations of Republic Act 9165, otherwise known as the Comprehensive Dangerous Act of 2002.There is also a shortage of judges, prosecutors, public attorneys, parole and probation officers, and court personnel. Moreover, inadequate and substandard facilities and living conditions in jails, delays in drug dependency examination (DDE) due to the lack of accredited DDE physicians, the financial incapacity of PDLs, jail congestion and overcrowding contribute to the problem.Jose Glenn Capanas, dean of the University of San Carlos School of Law and Governance said based on Supreme Court (SC) records in 2023, approximately 70 percent or roughly 335 out of the 478 jail facilities nationwide are overcrowded. Out of around 126,000 inmates in the country, 69.51 percent or around 87,500 are under preventive detention; while only 30.49 percent, or around 38,400 had been convicted and sentenced.Quoting SC records, Capanas said around 87,203 out of the 126,000 inmates nationwide are facing charges related to illegal drugs, while 39,144 have non-drug-related cases. While the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) reported a drop in jail congestion (367 percent in 2023) compared to 600 percent in 2018, Capanas said the country’s jail congestion rate has remained relatively high. Therefore, there is a need for collaboration between judges, jail personnel, local government units, and other stakeholders to lower congestion, he said.The SC defines preventive detention as the temporary confinement of an alleged suspect in jail or prison while undergoing investigation or trial and awaiting final judgment. Mandaue jail Over at the Mandaue City Jail (MCJ), Jonathan Baltar, superintendent of the male dormitory, said out of around 1,506 male PDLs, 406 persons were under preventive detention as of Tuesday, March 5. Shela Serrano, superintendent of the MCJ female dormitory, also reported that 87 out of the 126 female PDLs were under preventive detention.In 2015, the MCJ was ranked as one of the most congested jail facilities in Central Visayas with a congestion rate of 1,701 percent, according to the BJMP Its male facility, originally designed to accommodate around 95 inmates, hosted around 1,000 male inmates at the time, while its female dormitory which could accommodate only around 22 PDLs catered to about a hundred female inmates.According to court officials, the main reason for the slow disposal of cases was the lack of trial courts to handle the large volume of cases in Mandaue City. There are only three Regional Trial Court (RTC) branches in Mandaue City compared to 22 in Cebu City. Mandaue City RTC Branch 83 Executive Judge Alan Garciano said they are implementing a new system to expedite the release of PDLs who have served their maximum sentence. The system involves acknowledging the release of the PDLs without need for a court order, as long as jail personnel can verify that the PDL has indeed completed their sentence. “The court is informed of the release seven days before the PDL’s release, as stated by the Office of the Court Administrator Circular No. 201-2022,” said Garciano.To help decongest the MCJ, the Mandaue City Government has built a wider jail facility with a larger inmate capacity. In September 2023, the MCJ male dormitory moved to its new location in Sitio Dunggoan, Barangay Basak which significantly improved their congestion problem, Baltar said.However, PDLs at the female dormitory have yet to transfer from the old MCJ facility in Barangay Looc to Barangay Basak as the new area for the female dormitory remains swampy.Serrano said as soon as an embankment is built, the transfer would take place. The new MCJ facility has an ideal capacity of 280 inmates for its male dormitory and 40 inmates for the female dormitory. / HIC

It is usually filled with all sorts of public utility vehicles (PUVs) as well as private vehicles.Noeh Godinez, who passes Osmeña Blvd. every day to get to his work in Lapu-Lapu City, said he welcomed the installation of street lights in the area, but he questioned the need to asphalt the road.Godinez, who rides a motorcycle to work, said the move may worsen traffic congestion.“There’s no need to destroy the road and asphalt it because there’s nothing wrong with the road in the Colon area. If they proceed with asphalting, this will only add to the existing traffic in the area,” he said in Cebuano.Another motorist was confused as to why the downtown area was included in the CBRT project when none of its roads are part of the route.“It will only cause heavy traffic, considering the narrow road in Colon area while there are so many jeepney stops and pedestrian,” said John Aguaviva.Cebu City Councilor James Anthony Cuenco, in a text message to SunStar Cebu on Sunday, said he is aware of the “Link to the Port” feature.He said he will only object to asphalting existing roads that are “evidently still in good order and condition.”He said the council learned during its executive session last Wednesday, April 3, that there was no need to destroy the existing road and apply new cement for the bus lanes along the first package route since the new cemented roads are still on the same level as those that were destroyed.“Such wasteful practice of spending public funds, not to mention the gross inconvenience it has caused the public, should be condemned and those found responsible be held accountable,” he said.Jongoy said this part of the project should have been discussed during the inception of the construction in 2023 so the CCTO could prepare a traffic management plan, particularly to address PUV routes.PUVs coming from the southern part of Cebu City, including those coming from cities of Naga and Talisay, pass by the Osmeña Blvd. and the downtown area.However, he said there will be no road closure as long as the design is not amenable to the City Government.Jongoy said some portions of Osmeña Blvd. going to the Plaza Independencia require maintenance, but since it is a national road, it is under the jurisdiction of the Department of Public Works and Highways.Imbong said on Sunday that they are still waiting for the City to approve the “Link to the Port” feature, which is in line with Cebu City’s goal to pedestrianize the city’s heritage district, which is the downtown area.On Saturday, April 6, the CBRT posted on its Facebook page that construction of the bus station near the Cebu Normal University has already started, while the infrastructure works on the foundation of the bus station near the Cebu South Bus Terminal are nearing completion. / JJL Is there a slot game where you can win real money? .

THE Mandaue City Government has signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) with the Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP) Cebu City Chapter to expedite the release of certain inmates, particularly those under preventive detention, to help decongest the Mandaue City Jail. The agreement was made through the program “Humanity Behind Bars: An Integrated Jail Decongestion and Management” at the Office of the City Mayor on Monday, Feb. 26, 2024.The MOA signing was attended by officials of the Mandaue City Government and the Mandaue City Police Office (MCPO), and representatives from the Mandaue City Jail male and female dormitories, among others. Participants discussed the key components of the program which include the introduction of a digital platform called Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDL) Management Data designed to inventory and monitor the case status of PDLs, decongest jails, and facilitate efficient correctional facility management.During the event, the IBP Cebu City Chapter presented Oplan Bilis Laya, a legal aid service aimed at assisting in the timely release of PDLs who have completed their sentence or are eligible for probation, pardon, parole, or early release. The service is provided with the help of law students who work under the supervision of the IBP Cebu City Legal Aid Service Group. The IBP Cebu City Chapter has established MOAs with Cebu law schools for their various initiatives.Challenges Mary Grace Casano, executive director for legal aid of the IBP Cebu City Chapter core team, presented common challenges faced by courts and jail facilities that impede the Philippine justice system. The challenges include institutional barriers such as the lack of drug courts causing delays in court proceedings. According to the IBP, there is an unbalanced number of drug courts even though 90 percent of PDL cases involve violations of Republic Act 9165, otherwise known as the Comprehensive Dangerous Act of 2002.There is also a shortage of judges, prosecutors, public attorneys, parole and probation officers, and court personnel. Moreover, inadequate and substandard facilities and living conditions in jails, delays in drug dependency examination (DDE) due to the lack of accredited DDE physicians, the financial incapacity of PDLs, jail congestion and overcrowding contribute to the problem.Jose Glenn Capanas, dean of the University of San Carlos School of Law and Governance said based on Supreme Court (SC) records in 2023, approximately 70 percent or roughly 335 out of the 478 jail facilities nationwide are overcrowded. Out of around 126,000 inmates in the country, 69.51 percent or around 87,500 are under preventive detention; while only 30.49 percent, or around 38,400 had been convicted and sentenced.Quoting SC records, Capanas said around 87,203 out of the 126,000 inmates nationwide are facing charges related to illegal drugs, while 39,144 have non-drug-related cases. While the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) reported a drop in jail congestion (367 percent in 2023) compared to 600 percent in 2018, Capanas said the country’s jail congestion rate has remained relatively high. Therefore, there is a need for collaboration between judges, jail personnel, local government units, and other stakeholders to lower congestion, he said.The SC defines preventive detention as the temporary confinement of an alleged suspect in jail or prison while undergoing investigation or trial and awaiting final judgment. Mandaue jail Over at the Mandaue City Jail (MCJ), Jonathan Baltar, superintendent of the male dormitory, said out of around 1,506 male PDLs, 406 persons were under preventive detention as of Tuesday, March 5. Shela Serrano, superintendent of the MCJ female dormitory, also reported that 87 out of the 126 female PDLs were under preventive detention.In 2015, the MCJ was ranked as one of the most congested jail facilities in Central Visayas with a congestion rate of 1,701 percent, according to the BJMP Its male facility, originally designed to accommodate around 95 inmates, hosted around 1,000 male inmates at the time, while its female dormitory which could accommodate only around 22 PDLs catered to about a hundred female inmates.According to court officials, the main reason for the slow disposal of cases was the lack of trial courts to handle the large volume of cases in Mandaue City. There are only three Regional Trial Court (RTC) branches in Mandaue City compared to 22 in Cebu City. Mandaue City RTC Branch 83 Executive Judge Alan Garciano said they are implementing a new system to expedite the release of PDLs who have served their maximum sentence. The system involves acknowledging the release of the PDLs without need for a court order, as long as jail personnel can verify that the PDL has indeed completed their sentence. “The court is informed of the release seven days before the PDL’s release, as stated by the Office of the Court Administrator Circular No. 201-2022,” said Garciano.To help decongest the MCJ, the Mandaue City Government has built a wider jail facility with a larger inmate capacity. In September 2023, the MCJ male dormitory moved to its new location in Sitio Dunggoan, Barangay Basak which significantly improved their congestion problem, Baltar said.However, PDLs at the female dormitory have yet to transfer from the old MCJ facility in Barangay Looc to Barangay Basak as the new area for the female dormitory remains swampy.Serrano said as soon as an embankment is built, the transfer would take place. The new MCJ facility has an ideal capacity of 280 inmates for its male dormitory and 40 inmates for the female dormitory. / HIC licensed online casinos THE Archdiocese of Cebu has been safeguarding its religious assets with cultural and historical significance. This was revealed by Fr. Bryan Brigoli, chairman of the Cebu Archdiocesan Commission of the Cultural Heritage of the Church, in an interview with SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, Feb. 21, 2024, amid the calls for the return of “stolen” pulpit panels from Nuestra Señora del Patrocinio de Maria Santisima Parish Church in Boljoon, southern Cebu. The commission, established in 2002, has incorporated policies that advance heritage protection and management, said Brigoli in Beyond the Headlines, SunStar Cebu’s online news and commentary program.
