Importance of Science department cited
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — Mayor Oscar Rodriguez recently cited the important role and lauded the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) for its all-out efforts in battling climate change and disaster risk reduction.
During the 2012 Southern Luzon Cluster Science and Technology Fair which the City Government hosted from November 22 to 24 at the activity center of Walter Mart in Barangay San Agustin, Rodriguez noted of the programs of the DOST deemed to improve people’s lives and support budding talents of aspiring scientists and inventors in the country.
“We should be keen in recognizing the efforts of the DOST by showing our trust and support in their programs as they provide us with efficient ways to help us become knowledgeable and be resilient amidst natural calamities and other difficulties,” said Rodriguez.
He added that science and technology fair and exhibit’s theme “Science, Technology and Innovation: Working Together for Growth and Development,” is timely and appropriate as it highlights the recent scientific breakthroughs and advanced technologies developed by government and private research institutions mainly by the DOST research and development institutes and councils, as well as private academic entities like state universities and colleges.
Highlighted by a presentation of the features of Project NOAH—DOST’s response to the call of President Benigno Aquino III for a more accurate, integrated and responsive disaster prevention and mitigation system in high-risk areas around the country—the fair also included a series of seminars and colloquium of completed DOST R&D projects, mature technologies ready for commercialization and adoption, and technical assistance from the Philippine Council for Industry, Energy and Emerging Technologies Research and Development (PCEERD-DOST).
Project NOAH will harness technologies and management services for disaster risk reduction activities offered by the DOST through PAGASA, PHIVOLCS, and the DOST-Advanced Science and Technology Institute (ASTI), in partnership with the UP National Institute of Geological Sciences and the UP College of Engineering.
CAMP OLIVAS — A trailer truck loaded with 14,000 liters of diesel and 5,000 liters of gasoline was hijacked by five armed men along the Subic-Clark-Tarlac-Expressway (SCTEx) in Dinalupihan, Bataan, Tuesday night.
Senior Superintendent R’Win Pagkalinawan, Pampanga provincial police director, said driver Loreto Makatangay, 53, of Linao East, Tugueraro and helper Jaime Baccay, 47, of Cagayan province were traversing the boundary of Dinalupihan town along the said expressway when they were flagged down by the suspects.
The armed men, on board a Nissan Escapade (commemorative plate “PNP111”) with siren, blocked their path and at gunpoint ordered them to board on their vehicle, reports said.
Two of the suspects then boarded the Isuzu trailer truck and drove it towards the direction of Clark.
Pagkalinawan said the suspects hogtied the two victims and blindfolded them with packaging tape.
The suspects took the two victims to their safehouse somewhere in Pampanga until they were dumped along the Sta. Rita dike in Minalin town.
The victims, after freeing themselves, reported the incident to the Minalin Police Station. (Ric Sapnu)
