WITH 8,000 people expected to participate, the Philippines is looking to break the Guinness World Record for the Largest Human Lung Formation on Saturday, March 16, 2024, at the Quirino Grandstand in Manila. In a press conference, Department of Health (DOH) Secretary Teodoro Herbosa said they are inviting the public to participate in the historic event to break the record held by India. "We will be attempting to break the world record of the largest human formation of the lungs. This is our advocacy. I’m inviting you all to join so you can be part of the world record," said Herbosa. "We’re expecting about 8,000 people to actually do a formation of the lung at the Quirino Grandstand," he added. The current world record for the largest human image of an organ involved 5,003 participants. It was set in New Delhi, India back on December 23, 2017.According to the DOH, the attempt at breaking the world record is part of the country's advocacy to eradicate tuberculosis (TB). "Let us show everybody our determination and unity in combating TB," said the DOH. Tuberculosis is a disease caused by a bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which usually attacks the lungs. In 2023, DOH data shows that there were 549 new and relapse TB cases per 100,000 population. (SunStar Philippines) Sports in the Philippines Philippines THE four former Cebu City Hall tax mappers, now seeking their long-overdue salaries, have strongly refuted claims by City Administrator Collin Rosell that their failure to report to reassigned positions is the reason for the 10-month salary delay.In an earlier interview, Rossell said the four regular employees—Filomena Atuel, Maria Almicar Dionzon, Sybil Ann Ybañez, and Chito dela Cerna—refused to report to their reassigned offices, resulting in the delay of their salary release since July 2023.Ybañez, speaking on behalf of the three other employees, clarified that they did not outrightly return to reporting to their mother office, the City Assessor’s Office. Instead, they only did so after they received a favorable response to their petition to the Civil Service Commission in Central Visayas (CSC 7).“Bakak nga wala mi ni report sa offices asa mi gi reassign. (It’s a lie if he said we did not report to the offices where we were reassigned.) We reported there before we filed our appeal at CSC,” Ybañez told SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, April 17, 2024.Ybañez added that they reported to their reassigned offices upon receiving the reassignment order on June 1, 2023.

Cha-cha? Okay, basta si Marcos moingon, mo-commit siya sa mga tawo nga dili siya modagan pag-usab,” Duterte said. (I will support Cha-cha so long as Marcos commits to the people that he will not run again.)He said Marcos should remain in his position for one term of six years in accordance with the 1987 Constitution, saying that if the Marcoses want to extend to two or three terms, it should be done in accordance with the Constitution by letting the people decide.“Mag Cha-cha man ta, sa unsa nga paagi (whether through) people’s initiative, constituent body of Congress, or constitutional convention, we can really change anything there for as long as there is no vested interest,” Duterte said.He said changing the economic provisions has always been used as the reason for Cha-cha, especially when the one in the position wants to extend his or her term.“Changes in the Constitution, economic provisions, whatever... even sa terms sa chapter diha tanang (even the terms of all the chapters there), apil na ang termino sa (including the term of the) president, okay ko (I’m okay with it), basta dili mo pabor sa galingkod karon ug sa sunod nga (so long as it doesn’t favor the one sitting there now and in the next) election,” Duterte reiterated.He said the move would bring the Filipinos back to what happened during the time of Marcos Sr. who, during his regime, looked for money to ensure the extension of his term.He added whatever reasons they would use in changing the Constitution, it would always end up like what already happened in the past.People’s initiativeDuring the rally, Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama also gave his stance on the people’s initiative (PI).“I do not like the people’s initiative because it has become a congressional initiative and likewise it has become a secret initiative,” Rama said.Presidential sister Sen. Imee Marcos has accused House Speaker and her cousin Martin Romualdez of offering a P20 million reward per legislative district in exchange for signatures in support of the PI.The PI proposes to amend the 1987 Constitution by allowing all members of Congress to jointly (rather than separately) vote on proposed constitutional amendments in a constituent assembly. This would make the 24 senators’ votes count for practically nothing against the votes of the 316 members of the House of Representatives and make it easier to revise the Constitution, the Senate said in a manifesto against the PI last month.On Sunday, Rama said Cebu City is not for sale and the country likewise.Rama was one of the guest speakers at the prayer rally, where he spoke before Davao City Mayor Sebastian “Baste” Duterte, former congressman Glenn Chong, former executive secretary Vic Rodriguez, former presidential spokesperson Harry Roque Jr., and former President Duterte, who served as the main speaker of the night. Other attendees were representatives Isidro Ungab and Paolo Duterte, and Cebu City Councilor Donaldo Hontiveros and Cebu City Administrator Collin Rosell.Support changeOn Monday, Feb. 26, Rama said he would support the call of the former president, saying Duterte was right when he said any changes in the Constitution should not benefit the one who is currently in power. Rama said it is a “normal thing” if it occurs within a constituent assembly or constitutional convention; otherwise, it would not provide a good starting point.Mayor Alfonso “Al” Pestolante of San Remigio town in northern Cebu also expressed support for extending the single six-year term of a president. But he said further study is needed.When asked whether he wishes to see Marcos Jr. benefit from the term extension, he said Marcos’s performance should be evaluated first.“Four years would be enough time for us to see the performance and decide either to continue for years or to find another one,” he told SunStar on Monday.Against Cha-cha Meanwhile, Jaime Paglinawan, chairman of Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan) Central Visayas, said Sunday, Feb. 25, that the term extension of politicians is among their concerns if the amendment to the Constitution is passed.He said the push for Cha-cha would benefit only the ruling class, comprising individuals in influential positions.Paglinawan argued that the challenges faced by the poor and common citizens stem not from existing laws and constitutional provisions but from politicians’ failure to implement them for the majority of Filipinos’ benefit. In a statement sent to SunStar Cebu on Monday, Paglinawan said Cha-cha is one of the ways of the current administration to extend its grasp on power. “It is not appropriate to support former President Duterte’s stance that he agrees with Cha-cha where the president, and others in the position will extend the term beyond six years and can still be reelected while other positions in the LGUs (local government units) in the Congress will be extended even if their term is beyond what is in our Constitution,” Paglinawan said. “Even if Duterte said the extension of the term will be done beyond the 2028 election... he agrees with Cha-cha,” Paglinawan said. Paglinawan recalled that under Duterte’s presidency from 2016 to 2022, he pushed for amendments in the 1987 Constitution to introduce federalism in national governance, which did not prosper. In addition, Paglinawan said Duterte’s expression of support now is to pressure Marcos’s administration to bar the entry of the International Criminal Court that will investigate the atrocities and human rights violations behind the former administration’s “War on Drugs.” “The Dutertes are only using the Cha-cha campaign to pressure Marcos Jr. for their interest so that the ICC cannot enter the Philippines, and get more funds for the preparation of (Vice President) Sara Duterte, who is also ambitious for a higher position,” Paglinawan said.Disappointed votersOn Sunday, senior citizens Jose and Annie Garcia, a couple from Barangay Pasil, Cebu City, said they attended the prayer rally to hear from Duterte, and that they were also against the PI. “Stop the People’s Initiative. Stop the abuse,” Jose said in Cebuano.He added that the current administration has not done anything good for the country during its two years of service.He said Marcos, along with his wife Liza Araneta Marcos, and Martin Romualdez should step down from office.“Rice is already very expensive. Where now is the rice he promised for P20 a kilo?” Jose asked.According to the Garcia couple, they gave their trust to Marcos Jr. and voted for him in the 2022 elections and have ended up disappointed.Unity During the rally, Rama also called for unity among the country’s two top leaders -- President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and Vice President Sara Duterte.“We should be united, indivisible and undivided. That’s why Marcos (and Sara) Duterte, do your job! Sakto ko (Am I right)?” Rama said.Rama, in his speech, urged them to fulfill their obligations and commitment to the UniTeam to guide the country toward progress through unity.Rama said there is no need for another Edsa people power revolution, reiterating that Marcos Jr. and Sara should do their jobs.Constitution The Constitution is the supreme law of the Philippines. Before the elder Marcos came into the picture, the Philippines operated under the 1935 Constitution, as amended, that provided for a bicameral congress and gave the president of the country a term of four years with a possibility of being reelected for a second term. President Ferdinand Marcos Sr. was elected president of the country in 1965 and reelected to a second term in 1969. However, Marcos Sr.’s massive spending on foreign debt-funded infrastructure projects to curry favor with voters during the 1969 presidential campaign, as he aimed to become the first Filipino to win a second term as president, led opposition figures to accuse him of intending to stay in power beyond the two terms allowed by the 1935 Constitution.Martial lawBefore the end of his second and last term, Marcos Sr. declared martial law in 1972, and under his administration, the 1973 Constitution was adopted that gave the president (head of state) a term of six years with no prohibition on reelection, abolished the bicameral Congress—and with it, its system of checks and balances—in favor of a unicameral Batasang Pambansa in a parliamentary system of government, which meant there would be a prime minister (head of government). In 1976, amendments to the 1973 Constitution made the incumbent president of the Philippines the prime minister, and allowed the president to exercise legislative powers until martial law was lifted. This enabled Marcos Sr. to rule concurrently as prime minister in 1978. After Marcos Sr. was ousted in the 1986 People Power Revolt, Corazon Aquino became president, and the 1987 Constitution adopted under her term restored the presidential system of government and a bicameral Congress and the ban on presidential reelection.

THE four former Cebu City Hall tax mappers, now seeking their long-overdue salaries, have strongly refuted claims by City Administrator Collin Rosell that their failure to report to reassigned positions is the reason for the 10-month salary delay.In an earlier interview, Rossell said the four regular employees—Filomena Atuel, Maria Almicar Dionzon, Sybil Ann Ybañez, and Chito dela Cerna—refused to report to their reassigned offices, resulting in the delay of their salary release since July 2023.Ybañez, speaking on behalf of the three other employees, clarified that they did not outrightly return to reporting to their mother office, the City Assessor’s Office. Instead, they only did so after they received a favorable response to their petition to the Civil Service Commission in Central Visayas (CSC 7).“Bakak nga wala mi ni report sa offices asa mi gi reassign. (It’s a lie if he said we did not report to the offices where we were reassigned.) We reported there before we filed our appeal at CSC,” Ybañez told SunStar Cebu on Wednesday, April 17, 2024.Ybañez added that they reported to their reassigned offices upon receiving the reassignment order on June 1, 2023. Ybañez said she reported to the Cebu City Operation Second Chance Center; Atuel, the Cebu City Anti-Mendicancy Office; Diongzon, the South Road Properties. On the other hand, dela Cerna submitted his petition to the CSC 7 before his reassignment date. He was reassigned to the Cebu City Environment and Natural Resources Office.The four employees each have decades of experience working for City Hall.Atuel has served in the City Assessor’s Office for 30 years, dela Cerna for 16 years, Diongzon for 35 years and Ybañez for 18 years. They held positions corresponding to salary grades ranging from 11 to 18.They are now currently assigned to the City Administrator’s Office under Rosell.Rosell’s claimIn a press conference Wednesday, Rosell said the alleged refusal of the four employees to report to their new assignment resulted in problems with the budget alignment for personnel and their salaries as no supervisor would sign their payroll documents.“Kon wala ka ni-report kung asa ka na assigned, kinsa man ang mopirma sa imong time-in, time-out, ang imong DTR (daily time record)?” Rosell said.(If you fail to report where you are assigned, who will sign your time-in, time-out, your DTR?)He added that their reassignment was part of the City Government’s effort to revamp employees and improve services. He noted that it is a common practice in the public sector and falls under the prerogative of mayors as part of management.ReassignmentRosell said six employees from the Assessor’s Office received reassignment orders. He said two of these employees reported to their new departments, and, according to him, have not experienced salary issues.He added that the details of the reassignment should have been kept confidential. He said the City Assessor’s Office is a high-risk department as it safeguards all records of properties within Cebu City, and the City Government is pouring efforts into revamping the office’s services and internal structure.Rosell added that serious allegations have surfaced within the City Assessor’s Office, including claims that some City Government-owned properties may be improperly titled to private individuals.PetitionYbañez said unfavorable time shifting and tasks unrelated to their expertise forced them to petition the CSC 7 to review their reassignment orders.Atuel, Dionzon and Ybañez filed their petition on June 16, 2023, while Dela Cerna filed his petition on June 19, 2023.Ybañez said that pending their petition, they returned to report to their original office, the Assessor’s Office. She cited section 13.a.4 of the 2017 Omnibus Rules on Appointment and Other Human Resource Actions to assert that any reassignment order is a non-executory while awaiting review by the CSC 7.On Oct. 12 and 17, 2023, Atuel, Dela Cerna, Diongzon, and Ybañez received a “favorable” decision from CSC 7 Director Carlos Evangelista, on their appeal, declaring the reassignment from the mayor “invalid.” However, in November 2023, Mayor Michael Rama, through the City Legal Office (CLO), filed a motion for reconsideration before the CSC 7, which was subsequently denied. Later, the CLO submitted a petition for review before the CSC central office in January 2024Rosell said that the latest decision of CSC 7 regarding the four employees is currently pending review with its central office.Transfer to city adminThe four ex-tax mappers are currently working under the office of the City Administrator with a new designation order since March 2024.Rosell said the mayor had ordered him to expedite the release of the salaries of the four for April this year.

Cha-cha? Okay, basta si Marcos moingon, mo-commit siya sa mga tawo nga dili siya modagan pag-usab,” Duterte said. (I will support Cha-cha so long as Marcos commits to the people that he will not run again.)He said Marcos should remain in his position for one term of six years in accordance with the 1987 Constitution, saying that if the Marcoses want to extend to two or three terms, it should be done in accordance with the Constitution by letting the people decide.“Mag Cha-cha man ta, sa unsa nga paagi (whether through) people’s initiative, constituent body of Congress, or constitutional convention, we can really change anything there for as long as there is no vested interest,” Duterte said.He said changing the economic provisions has always been used as the reason for Cha-cha, especially when the one in the position wants to extend his or her term.“Changes in the Constitution, economic provisions, whatever... even sa terms sa chapter diha tanang (even the terms of all the chapters there), apil na ang termino sa (including the term of the) president, okay ko (I’m okay with it), basta dili mo pabor sa galingkod karon ug sa sunod nga (so long as it doesn’t favor the one sitting there now and in the next) election,” Duterte reiterated.He said the move would bring the Filipinos back to what happened during the time of Marcos Sr. who, during his regime, looked for money to ensure the extension of his term.He added whatever reasons they would use in changing the Constitution, it would always end up like what already happened in the past.People’s initiativeDuring the rally, Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama also gave his stance on the people’s initiative (PI).“I do not like the people’s initiative because it has become a congressional initiative and likewise it has become a secret initiative,” Rama said.Presidential sister Sen. Imee Marcos has accused House Speaker and her cousin Martin Romualdez of offering a P20 million reward per legislative district in exchange for signatures in support of the PI.The PI proposes to amend the 1987 Constitution by allowing all members of Congress to jointly (rather than separately) vote on proposed constitutional amendments in a constituent assembly. This would make the 24 senators’ votes count for practically nothing against the votes of the 316 members of the House of Representatives and make it easier to revise the Constitution, the Senate said in a manifesto against the PI last month.On Sunday, Rama said Cebu City is not for sale and the country likewise.Rama was one of the guest speakers at the prayer rally, where he spoke before Davao City Mayor Sebastian “Baste” Duterte, former congressman Glenn Chong, former executive secretary Vic Rodriguez, former presidential spokesperson Harry Roque Jr., and former President Duterte, who served as the main speaker of the night. Other attendees were representatives Isidro Ungab and Paolo Duterte, and Cebu City Councilor Donaldo Hontiveros and Cebu City Administrator Collin Rosell.Support changeOn Monday, Feb. 26, Rama said he would support the call of the former president, saying Duterte was right when he said any changes in the Constitution should not benefit the one who is currently in power. Rama said it is a “normal thing” if it occurs within a constituent assembly or constitutional convention; otherwise, it would not provide a good starting point.Mayor Alfonso “Al” Pestolante of San Remigio town in northern Cebu also expressed support for extending the single six-year term of a president. But he said further study is needed.When asked whether he wishes to see Marcos Jr. benefit from the term extension, he said Marcos’s performance should be evaluated first.“Four years would be enough time for us to see the performance and decide either to continue for years or to find another one,” he told SunStar on Monday.Against Cha-cha Meanwhile, Jaime Paglinawan, chairman of Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan) Central Visayas, said Sunday, Feb. 25, that the term extension of politicians is among their concerns if the amendment to the Constitution is passed.He said the push for Cha-cha would benefit only the ruling class, comprising individuals in influential positions.Paglinawan argued that the challenges faced by the poor and common citizens stem not from existing laws and constitutional provisions but from politicians’ failure to implement them for the majority of Filipinos’ benefit. In a statement sent to SunStar Cebu on Monday, Paglinawan said Cha-cha is one of the ways of the current administration to extend its grasp on power. “It is not appropriate to support former President Duterte’s stance that he agrees with Cha-cha where the president, and others in the position will extend the term beyond six years and can still be reelected while other positions in the LGUs (local government units) in the Congress will be extended even if their term is beyond what is in our Constitution,” Paglinawan said. “Even if Duterte said the extension of the term will be done beyond the 2028 election... he agrees with Cha-cha,” Paglinawan said. Paglinawan recalled that under Duterte’s presidency from 2016 to 2022, he pushed for amendments in the 1987 Constitution to introduce federalism in national governance, which did not prosper. In addition, Paglinawan said Duterte’s expression of support now is to pressure Marcos’s administration to bar the entry of the International Criminal Court that will investigate the atrocities and human rights violations behind the former administration’s “War on Drugs.” “The Dutertes are only using the Cha-cha campaign to pressure Marcos Jr. for their interest so that the ICC cannot enter the Philippines, and get more funds for the preparation of (Vice President) Sara Duterte, who is also ambitious for a higher position,” Paglinawan said.Disappointed votersOn Sunday, senior citizens Jose and Annie Garcia, a couple from Barangay Pasil, Cebu City, said they attended the prayer rally to hear from Duterte, and that they were also against the PI. “Stop the People’s Initiative. Stop the abuse,” Jose said in Cebuano.He added that the current administration has not done anything good for the country during its two years of service.He said Marcos, along with his wife Liza Araneta Marcos, and Martin Romualdez should step down from office.“Rice is already very expensive. Where now is the rice he promised for P20 a kilo?” Jose asked.According to the Garcia couple, they gave their trust to Marcos Jr. and voted for him in the 2022 elections and have ended up disappointed.Unity During the rally, Rama also called for unity among the country’s two top leaders -- President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and Vice President Sara Duterte.“We should be united, indivisible and undivided. That’s why Marcos (and Sara) Duterte, do your job! Sakto ko (Am I right)?” Rama said.Rama, in his speech, urged them to fulfill their obligations and commitment to the UniTeam to guide the country toward progress through unity.Rama said there is no need for another Edsa people power revolution, reiterating that Marcos Jr. and Sara should do their jobs.Constitution The Constitution is the supreme law of the Philippines. Before the elder Marcos came into the picture, the Philippines operated under the 1935 Constitution, as amended, that provided for a bicameral congress and gave the president of the country a term of four years with a possibility of being reelected for a second term. President Ferdinand Marcos Sr. was elected president of the country in 1965 and reelected to a second term in 1969. However, Marcos Sr.’s massive spending on foreign debt-funded infrastructure projects to curry favor with voters during the 1969 presidential campaign, as he aimed to become the first Filipino to win a second term as president, led opposition figures to accuse him of intending to stay in power beyond the two terms allowed by the 1935 Constitution.Martial lawBefore the end of his second and last term, Marcos Sr. declared martial law in 1972, and under his administration, the 1973 Constitution was adopted that gave the president (head of state) a term of six years with no prohibition on reelection, abolished the bicameral Congress—and with it, its system of checks and balances—in favor of a unicameral Batasang Pambansa in a parliamentary system of government, which meant there would be a prime minister (head of government). In 1976, amendments to the 1973 Constitution made the incumbent president of the Philippines the prime minister, and allowed the president to exercise legislative powers until martial law was lifted. This enabled Marcos Sr. to rule concurrently as prime minister in 1978. After Marcos Sr. was ousted in the 1986 People Power Revolt, Corazon Aquino became president, and the 1987 Constitution adopted under her term restored the presidential system of government and a bicameral Congress and the ban on presidential reelection.
