CLARK FREEPORT — The Clark International Airport has won the 2013 Routes Airport Marketing Awards (Asia Heats-Under 20 Million Passengers category).

Clark International Airport president Victor Jose I. Luciano received the award during the 11th Routes Asia gathering in Mumbai, India on Monday.

The Department of Tourism (DOT) also received the Highly Commended-Destination Marketing Award narrowly missing top honors in this category pulled off by Tourism Australia.

Routes Asia, which was organized by UBM Aviation Routes Ltd based in Manchester in the UK, is the largest route development event for the entire Asia region.

This year, over 700 aviation professionals travelled to Mumbai to participate in the world-renowned airline and airport networking event.

Luciano said the awards were a major boost for Philippine aviation and tourism.

“The real winner here is not only Clark Airport nor the Department of Tourism but the entire aviation and tourism industry in the country. Slowly but surely, we are putting the Philippines back on the global stage and the major players in these industries are taking notice and positive interest in our country,” Luciano said.

“Also, what we have shown here is that under the good governance thrust of President Aquino, the Philippines can at last be at par with our more developed and prosperous neighbours in the region,” Luciano added.

The award was bestowed to Clark airport during the networking evening gala held at the Renaissance Mumbai Hotel.

Tourism Assistant Secretary Benito C. Bengzon Jr., who spearheaded the Philippines’ participation in Routes Asia 2013, received Highly Commended Destination Marketing Award for the agency.

The UBM Aviation Routes said the “Routes Airport Marketing Awards recognize and reward the highest standards of marketing activities undertaken by airports. This year the awards were split into two categories based on the size of the airport, and also a new tourism award for best destination marketing campaign by a tourism authority.”

Changi International Airport in Singapore won the award for the Over 20 Million Passengers category.

Susan Willis, Marketing and Analysis manager at UBM Aviation Routes, explained that CRK got the nod of awards judges due to its “effective growth” in 2012.

“Your airport was voted for by the airline community together with a panel of industry experts drawn from the airline networking planning community where they considered your marketing services and effective growth over the last 12 months,” Willis told Clark Airport authorities.

Luciano agreed that Clark airport clinched the award, because of its “phenomenal performance” in terms of growth in its passenger traffic and aircraft movement last year.

Under 20-million passengers category, Clark airport edged out six other major airports in Asia, namely: Aukland International Airport in Mangere, New Zealand; Bengaluru International Airport in Devanahalli, Kamataka, India; Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Shamshabad, Hyderabad, Andrha Pradesh, India; Juanda-Surabaya International Airport in Sidoarjo, Indonesia; Kansai International Airport in Osaka, Japan; and Siem Reap International Airport in Siem Reap, Cambodia.

Included in the short-list of Destination Marketing Awards were the Okinawa Convention & Visitors Bureau, the Philippine Department of Tourism, the Singapore Tourism Board, Tourism Australia, and Tourism New Zealand.

MEXICO — Mayor Teddy Tumang said Tuesday that he welcomes the findings of the Commission on Audit (COA) for the year 2007 to mid-2010.

The COA has released its audit report, including recommended courses of action, refund of some P149 million in favor of the Municipality of Mexico in Pampanga, institution of proper charges, administrative and criminal, against concerned officials and private individuals in accordance with the penal provision under Section 65 of IRR-A of Republic Act (RA) 9184 and Section 3 (e) and (h) of RA 3019 and Article 171 of the Revised Penal Code, as well as strict compliance to the Government Procurement Act.

The audit was requested by Vice Mayor Roy Manalastas and councilors Rex Calma, Emmanuel Manalo, and Rudencio Gonzales on August 31, 2010, and was authorized under Audit Office 2010-653 dated October 4, 2010.

Its primary objective was to determine whether the selection of contractors/suppliers for projects/expenditures and award of contracts by the Municipality of Mexico implemented in 2007 up to mid-2010 were made in accordance with the Government Procurement Act.

Tumang said he welcomes the COA findings and “face charges if there are any.”

“I welcome the COA findings and recommendations. However, there are no charges filed against me and the COA findings are not to be treated as complaints since they are just procedural,” he said.

He said he is willing to face charges if any would be lodged against him.

“I believe it is mere politics. I’m ready. I am not even charged with plunder or corruption charges,” he said.

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — Third district Board Member Monina Laus has urged officials of the Pampanga Provincial Police Office to advance the rights and welfare of women in line with the celebration of the Women’s Month.

Laus said police officers are in the forefront of cases and incidents dealing with abuses against women.

She said police operatives can effectively pursue cases against criminal elements victimizing women and advance the effective implementation of women’s desks in various police precincts here.

“The police are essential partners in the implementation of laws and policies on the protection of women. The more they effectively implement the law, the more people will be able to accept the fact that women’s rights are also human rights,” Laus said.

Kababaihan: Gabay sa Pagtahak sa Tuwid na Daan is this year’s theme for the Women’s Month Celebration, which underscores the need to accelerate women’s participation in governance and enhance gender perspective in upholding good governance.

The theme highlights the importance of strengthening the mechanisms and institutions that support women and to widen the arena for their participation.

Laus said the Provincial Government of Pampanga will work closely with the police in implementing policies and regulations for women’s protection in the local level.

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO — Members of the fourth City Council of San Fernando said on Monday that their most recent award as the Philippines’ best Sangguniang Panlungsod — the Hall of Fame distinction — is due to their “common ground taking the interests of Fernandinos above all.”

Patio and Tulabut, majority and minority leaders, respectively, both described their sessions in the plenary as “full of debates and arguments” since they consider Fernandinos on proposed measures and every legislation passed.

“The landmark legislation in education, health, environment, infrastructure and other measures are for Fernandinos.

MEXICO, Pampanga — The Commission on Audit (COA) has given Mayor Teddy Tumang 60 days to act and implement its recommendations on findings of its recent examination, particularly the restitution of P149,133,819.18 “in favor of the Municipality of Mexico by persons determined to be liable.”

Documents obtained by Sun.Star Pampanga show that on February 12, 2013, COA chair Ma. Gracia Pulido-Tan wrote Tumang about the “FAIO [Fraud Audit and Investigation Office] Report No. 2012-010” or the “Report on the Results of the Audit on the Purported Anomalous Projects and Expenditures of the Municipality of Mexico, Pampanga for the Calendar Years 2007 to mid 2010.”

The letter was reportedly received at the Mayor’s Office in February 28, a Sun.Star Pampanga source said.

In its recommendations, the COA team led by supervisor lawyer Alexander Juliano, State auditor Desiree Aquino, and members Special Investigator IV Engr. Francisco Valentino Jr., State auditor II Deborah Araojo and State auditor I Eduardo Acosta requested Tumang to “comply strictly with the provisions of the IRR [Implementing Rules and Regulations] of Republic Act 9184 and the relevant GPPB [Government Procurement Policy Board] Resolutions in the procurements to be made by the municipality.”

The COA recommended courses of action also asked Tumang to “institute proper charges, administrative and criminal, against concerned officials and private individuals in accordance with the penal provision under Section 65 of IRR-A of RA 9184 and Section 3 (e) and (h) of RA No. 3019 and Article 171 of the Revised Penal Code.”

The audit, documents show, was requested by Vice Mayor Roy Manalastas and councilors Rex Calma, Emmanuel Manalo and Rudencio Gonzales on August 31, 2010, and was authorized under Audit Office 2010-653 dated October 4 of the same year. Its primary objective was “to determine whether the selection of contractors/suppliers for projects/expenditures and award of contracts by the Municipality of Mexico implemented in 2007 up to mid 2010 were made in accordance with RA 9184 or the “Government Procurement Act.”

In its findings discussed with municipal officials during the July 26, 2012 exit conference, the COA found out that some P43,168,403.79 for procurement of vehicles and medicines was awarded to bidders, who “had either close relationship or personal dealings with the head of the procuring entity; used the same name of another or allowed another to use one’s name for participation in biddings; and who maliciously submitted different bids through two or more persons, corporations, partnerships or any other business entity in which he has an interest, to create the appearance of competition that does not exist so as to be adjudged as the winning bidder.

The COA said the municipal Bids and Awards Committee failed to discharge its mandate as the law requires, thereby producing results that are disadvantageous to the public.

The COA also noted that the municipality went on a P39,321,098.10 contract shopping from 2007 to mid 2010, all awarded to one Buyu Trading and Construction, on the basis of irregularly filled-up canvass forms and alleged fraudulent names and signatures. The audit also disclosed that 164 disbursement vouchers totaling P26,719,162.53 were paid without the approval of the municipal accountant.

“We request that the recommendations be implemented and that this Commission be informed of the actions taken within 60 days (from receipt hereof),” the COA urged the mayor.

Sun.Star Pampanga tried to reach Tumang, but repeated calls remained unanswered, although in an interview last year, he said he would welcome the results of the audit.
