CANDABA — The Municipal Government here has called an urgent local census of all migratory birds at the Wildlife Reserve Park in Sitio Dona Simang, Visal San Pablo on Thursday.
This local census will be led by Mayor Jerry Pelayo and other local officials following reports that a greater volume of migratory birds have arrived and are currently staying in this town’s wetlands.
The activity is in preparation with the annual census usually conducted by the Wild Bird Club of the Philippines (WBCP) headed by its President Mike Lu.
All participating bird watchers, census takers and media are requested to proceed to the bird sanctuary as early as 6 a.m. of the said date.
Meanwhile, it was learned that the Wild Bird Club is also set to conduct an Asian Water Bird Census on January 15.
Last year, at least 8,725 migratory birds were found roaming around the Candaba Wetlands during the 2011 Asian Water Bird Census (AWC).
The Asian Water Bird Census aims to provide the basis for estimates of water bird populations and monitor changes in the number of water birds and their distribution by regular and standardized counts of representative wetlands.
The Asian Water Bird Census is part of the global water bird monitoring program of the International Water Bird Census coordinated by the Wetlands International and the Protected Areas and Wildlife Bureau.

Tuesday, 3, 2012
THE Philippine Senate, which will convene as an impeachment court in two weeks, is expected to rule on the validity of the impeachment case against Supreme Court (SC) Chief Justice Renato Corona.
Corona, who asked the Senate to dismiss the complaint, said it was invalid since members of the House did not read the complaint before signing.
Corona was accused by the 188 congressmen-signatories of betrayal of public trust, culpable violation of the Constitution, and graft and corruption.
House justice committee chairman Niel Tupas Jr., who also heads the prosecution team, said “numerous” photocopies of the complaint were distributed to political parties before a majority caucus in December.
“Numerous” copies were also available at the caucus, he added.
The prosecution team on Monday filed its 38-page reply to Corona’s answer to the eight articles of impeachment against him.
The prosecution team asked the Senate impeachment court to 1) immediately deny Corona’s prayer for the dismissal of the impeachment complaint against him; 2) proceed with the trial immediately; and 3) convict Corona for betrayal of public trust.
“The prosecution panel is ready. Let’s get it on for the sake of our nation,” Tupas said in a text message to reporters.
The prosecution team’s reply also dared Corona to avoid hiding behind legal technicalities to delay the trial or avoid accountability.
Corona also said the complaint was filed “like a thief in the night,” referring to the process by which it was signed — immediately after a December 12 majority caucus where the prosecution panel head explained the contents.
But the panel said even if the “verification” is “defective,” “it is not fatal to the Impeachment Complaint or the jurisdiction of the Impeachment Court. It is elementary that verification is a formal, not jurisdictional.”
“It is extremely surprising for Corona to hide behind a technicality to avoid or delay trial. After all, there were boasts of his ‘powerhouse’ legal team, that he is ready and willing to face trial in the Senate and welcomes the opportunity to prove his innocence…Apparently, now that the time has come for him to face the impeachment charges, he is not as bold after all,” the lawmakers said.
Navotas City Representative Tobias “Toby” Tiangco, for his part, insisted that the complaint was defective, saying several lawmakers admitted having signed the document without reading it.
“The fact that congressmen were not allowed to ask questions after the PowerPoint (presentation) shows due process was not followed…We were told to get a copy of the complaint and raise questions only during plenary session,” said Tiangco, who quit the House majority bloc after the supposed rush in the filing of the complaint.
Tupas added their reply also stressed, among others, that the complaint was not instigated by President Benigno Aquino III and the Liberal Party (LP), but the Filipino people through their representatives in Congress.
The prosecution, in its reply, said the LP only has 80 members at the House, and that not all of them signed the impeachment complaint against Corona. More members of the House who signed the complaint were from other parties, the panel said.
“Corona must not hide behind the cloak of collegiality and dilute the blame on him,” the House reply said.
The prosecution panel argued that as constitutional head of the judiciary, Corona “holds a unique and powerful position within the Supreme Court.”
The panel also said that if Corona sees an attack on him as an attack on the judiciary, “he cannot now disclaim leadership and responsibility just because it is convenient to his defense.”
The prosecution panel also hit at Corona’s claim that the impeachment will weaken the rule of law.
“The sovereign people simply want accountability, and to bring back a Supreme Court whose independence is beyond question,” it said.
The House prosecution panel also told Corona on Monday to quit his alleged delaying tactics and face the impeachment complaint against him.
The panel also stated that the impeachment of Corona will strengthen the Judiciary by removing the former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s influence in the High Tribunal. Corona earlier claimed that the impeachment case was an attack on the Judiciary.
Deputy Speaker Lorenzo “Erin” Tanada III, the panel’s spokesperson, said they are confident that Corona will be convicted and removed from his position as SC Chief Justice.
“Corona’s impeachment is purely a response to the people’s clamor to hold him accountable for his sins and offenses, and purge the Highest Court of a morally unfit officer who has betrayed their trust,” the panel stated in its reply.
The “last straw”, the group said, was when the SC, led by Corona, issued a temporary restraining order (TRO) against the travel ban issued on former President Arroyo.
Bayan Muna Representative Neri Colmenares, the lead prosecutor on Article VII of the impeachment complaint, believes that the issuance of the TRO will pin Corona down in the Senate trial.
“A justice who is proven to have rendered a decision partial to a party in a case cannot escape accountability merely because the others voted with him,” Colmenares argued.
Corona, a so-called midnight appointee of Arroyo, also served as the former President Arroyo’s chief of staff and spokesperson. (Kathrina Alvarez/Jonathan de Santos/Sunnex)

Tuesday, 3, 2012
CONGRESSWOMAN Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s rise and fall from power has eclipsed some of the recent issues and personalities for 2011, making her one of the top newsmakers in the country and her home province of Pampanga.
The former President’s arrest and current legal battles have polarized people, making every event of her current life a source of entertainment and fascination for most.
From her hospitalization in June for a “pinched nerve” at the St. Luke’s Medical Center in Taguig City, people have mixed reactions and feelings over how the government of President Benigno Aquino III is treating the former President.
Arroyo underwent three cervical spine surgeries and was also found suffering from hypoparathyroidism and a rare bone mineral disorder.
In November, Arroyo tried to flee the country to seek medical treatment but was prevented by the watchlist order issued by Justice Secretary Leila de Lima, despite the Supreme Court order that allowed her to leave.
A Pasay court issued a warrant of arrest against her for electoral sabotage and was detained at the St. Luke’s Medical Center in Taguig City, and then transferred to the Veterans Memorial Medical Center (VMMC) later on.
Her continuing struggles are expected to make news headlines even until the first quarter of 2012.
The ‘Loving’ Governor
If there is one word to describe the first woman governor of Pampanga, nothing will be more superlative than “loving.”
True to her being the “Mother of the Province,” Governor Lilia Pineda has opened the doors of the Capitol to the sick, the poor, the elders and virtually all Kapampangans who seek for her care.
Working almost 24/7 since she assumed her post, the governor has made health her flagship program, seeing to it that everyone is given the necessary medical attention, believing that one could get better education and achieve more only if he or she, young or old, is free from any illness and is truly healthy.
The loving governor has blazed through 2011 with flying colors, marking her first year in office with milestones in quarry collections, millions for development projects and dozens of grassroots programs that have made Pampanga a phenomenon. Indeed, it is for Kapampangans “Alagang Nanay, Serbisyong Tunay.”
‘Trustworthy’ Edpam
Angeles City Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan has planted a seed of trust in the hearts of Angeleños, which for years were burdened by disappointment in the previous administration. This is the very reason why his administration has done and achieved so much than what is expected.
The mayor’s expedient solutions to the City Government’s multiple debt problems at once earned him the trust of citizens and businessmen, a much-valued coin that paid for patience and consideration from the Angeles Electric Company, the Metro Clark Waste Management Corporation, and the Philippine Veterans Bank.
This willingness to trust Pamintuan has freed the City Government to launch more projects to benefit its citizenry, from medical and dental missions, finding solution to the traffic and garbage mess, the establishment of the Angeles City Renal Care unit to major improvements in the Rafael Lazatin Memorial Medical Center (RLLMC), to renegotiating plans for an impractical sports coliseum into a much-needed public city college.
Politicians’ ‘Godfather’

His expertise in lawmaking has made first district Representative Carmelo “Tarzan” Lazatin known a “godfather” of Pampanga politicians.
The past year, Lazatin’s performance in the Congress has earned him a Most Outstanding Congressman award, ranking third among all congressmen in the country by the Congress Magazine.
Lazatin gained the award following his pro-poor programs centered on education, health, employment and social services.
Moreover, Lazatin was the first congressman to have thought of addressing classroom backlog in his district when he started the “Kabahagi Ako: Adopt-A-School Program.” He was able to collect enough funds to repair and build at least 444 classrooms for Angeles City, Mabalacat and Magalang.
Lazatin was also the primary author of Mabalacat town’s cityhood bid, which he energetically pushed until its approval.
The ‘Visionary’ Mayor
A habitat of human excellence and global gateway by 2020. Such is the foresight of the City of San Fernando’s visionary: Mayor Oscar Rodriguez.
Embracing the Performance Governance System, the world-class city mayor has given public service a different meaning, which has translated to better and more decent lives for Fernandinos through a strong focus on education, which raised the bar of the middle-class to 57 percent from 19 percent in just over a year.
Through his impeccable leadership, global standard projects like Sagip Ilog have been pursued and realized, resulting in hundreds of awards and hall of fame distinctions in almost every sector for the City Government and Fernandinos by large, who rally behind the mayor in his quest: “Magsilbi Tamu!”
‘Enigmatic’ Dong
No congressman in Pampanga can claim to have the most frequency of media exposure than third district Representative Aurelio Gonzales.
The son of peasant family from Mexico town has been making the news in 2011 with his list of community programs on health, education, and agriculture and poverty alleviation.
Considered one of the top political shakers and movers in the province, Gonzales has been making the headlines in the previous year when his privilege speech was included in the selected speeches of the 15th Congress published by the Office of the Secretary General and the Legislative Information Resources Management Department.
He was also given the honor as the first Filipino civil engineer to be conferred honorary membership by the Association of Structural Engineers of the Philippines (Asep).
Gonzales also has claim to be the first Kapampangan lawmaker to address the new Civil Engineering Board passers at the Philippine International Convention Center last December.
The lawmaker has made it to local and national newspapers with his millions of assistance to scholars, farmers and indigents.
‘Resourceful’ Chichos
Like the word resourceful implies, Clark International Airport Corporation President Victor Jose I. Luciano was able to deal skillfully and promptly with new situations and difficulties.
His knowledge in the aviation industry has become an instrument in the development of the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport as the country’s premier gateway.
Luciano has been effective in drumbeating his programs for the airport which attracted airlines including several budget carriers.
He was also instrumental in the drawing of the master development plan of the airport terminal which can accommodate 12 million passengers a year once it fully developed.
‘Relentless’ Boking
His relentless efforts to turn Mabalacat town into a city have made Mayor Marino “Boking” Morales most popular in 2011.
Morales envisions his town to be the Makati City of the North. In the past year, he managed to complete the cityhood requirements under the law, which include a land area of at least 10,000 hectares; population of at least 150,000 and an income of P100 million in the past two years.
He gained more popularity when he bravely faced the land dispute issue staged by Tarlac officials that have somehow compromised Mabalacat’s cityhood. Later, Morales said the land dispute will not peril his town’s expected cityhood in 2012.
‘Loyal’
Mayor Jerry Pelayo, despite continuing efforts of some officials close to the present administration of President Benigno Aquino for him to join the ruling political party, decided stay on the side of former President now Congresswoman Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
Pelayo has defined the real meaning of loyalty, unlike other politicians who in exchange of favors immediately shifted to the other political party.
The leadership of the present ruling party wants him to finally leave Lakas-Kampi-CMD (Christian Muslim Democrats) and join instead the Liberal Party (LP).
However, Pelayo maintained that he will remain loyal to his current party affiliation while supporting the present administration’s advocacy for good governance and other projects being implemented directly affecting the people of Pampanga.
The ‘Proactive’ Bizman
Following the declaration of Governor Lilia Pineda on December 12 as a special non-working holiday, businessman Rene Romero, in a local television program, admitted that he stills support the governor.
The Pampanga Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc. (PamCham), through Romero, raised doubts as to the legality of the Capitol’s declaration.
However, Romero stressed in one interview that he will not turn his back on Pineda insofar as the governor continuously supports the development of the business sector in the province.
“The issue is too small to abandon the governor,” he stated in front of thousands of television viewers.

MALACANANG reiterated Monday its appeal to Filipinos in Syria to heed calls for mandatory repatriation after only 490 overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) of the total 17,000 have been repatriated since tension began in March.
Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario flew to Damascus in Syria to personally facilitate the repatriation of some 4,000 Filipinos in the wake of escalating violence in connection with the uprising against President Bashar al-Assad.
“We would like to ask the Filipinos in Syria whether you are documented or undocumented to heed the appeal of the Philippine government,” Presidential spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said. “The [Department of Foreign Affairs] secretary is there right now and we would like to ask them to cooperate to ensure their safety and that’s the only purpose why we are appealing to them. We want to make sure that all Filipinos should be accounted for.
Ninety to 95 percent of Filipinos in Syria are believed to be undocumented, thus making it difficult to repatriate them.
Last December 22, the DFA raised the crisis alert level in Syria to “4”, thus, calling for the mandatory repatriation of Filipinos there amid the escalating tension there.
Lacierda commended del Rosario for personally overseeing the welfare of Filipinos in strife-torn Syria despite his old age.
“It shows that this government is serious in making sure that the safety of all the Filipinos is paramount in our agenda with respect to OFWs in Syria. That’s how seriously we take their safety. It shows how age does not matter insofar as Secretary Del Rosario is concerned,” Lacierda said, referring to del Rosario who is 72 years old.
Del Rosario earlier reported that the situation in Syria’s capital remains on high alert following the back-to-back car bombings last December 23.
He has ordered diplomat to proceed to Syria to oversee efforts by the Philippine Embassy to convince the 4,557 registered Filipinos to heed the government’s call for mandatory repatriation.
In a statement released late Monday afternoon, the DFA related that del Rosario already met with Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem, Deputy Foreign Minister Ahmad Arnous, and other Syrian officials.
“Secretary del Rosario requested the Ministry’s assistance in further updating the Philippine Embassy in Damascus’ database on the deployment of overseas Filipinos across the country,” said the DFA. “This is in order to determine their exact location and other information on their deployment throughout Syria’s 13 governorates.”
The DFA also asked the Philippine Honorary Consuls in Aleppo and Idlib and Homs as well as Filipino community leaders, local media, and International Organization for Migration for assistance to help inform Filipinos of the mandatory repatriation order.
Asked if there is a need to need to cut the political ties with the Syrian government amid violence, Lacierda deferred the matter to the Foreign Affairs secretary. (Jill Beltran/AMN/Sunnex)
