2 kids with enterovirus recover

MANILA (2nd Update, 3:15 p.m.) — The two children who were earlier found positive for enterovirus have recovered and were discharged from the hospital, the Department of Health (DOH) said.
The health department recently intensified security among travelers following the deaths of 52 children in Cambodia due to Enterovirus 71 (EV-71), a more virulent strain of enterovirus that causes diarrhea, rashes, and hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD), and is sometimes associated with severe central neurological diseases.
“They are recuperating well. We have reports that they have been discharged,” DOH spokesman Dr. Eric Tayag said in a press conference Wednesday.
The DOH earlier said that seven cases were referred to the government, with two being found positive for enterovirus.
The government said, however, that the Research Institute for Topical Medicine (RITM) has yet to confirm whether the enterovirus that contracted the children was the EV-71 type.
In a television interview, Tayag said he is expecting the lab results from the Muntinlupa City-based RITM by late Wednesday or Thursday.
He said, however, that the likelihood of it being similar to the EV-71 cases in Cambodia is slim.
“Because they have recovered, unlikely na Enterovirus 71 ‘yun,” he said.
“Kaya lang, because nag-test na sila, hindi namin pwede i-dismiss na EV-71 kasi alam naman namin na EV-71 is associated with HFMD na mild, eh. Hindi naman lahat ng EV-71 ay deadly, eh (But we cannot dismiss the case yet while RITM is still conducting tests and because EV-71 is associated with HFMD, though, not all cases are deadly),” he added.
Deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte also said chances are slim that the cases are associated with EV-71, as these are both local and the kids have no history of travel.
Tayag said the DOH reported these cases as they “wanted hospitals to report any suspected cases of HFMD and this is, of course, to also alert the public that the HFMD doesn’t have to come from other countries because we have them except that we don’t have fatal form of the disease.”
Malacañang, meanwhile, assured Wednesday that all concerned government agencies have been alerted for possible similar cases.
Presidential spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said airport authorities are closely screening arriving passengers especially those from international flights.
“We are monitoring any possible entrance of enterovirus through people coming from abroad. We’re making sure that that is being addressed,” he said.
He said that so far, there is no reported incident of enterovirus strain coming from Cambodia.
Tayag said the DOH will continue monitoring similar cases in the country. He said they will include HFMD cases in their routine surveillance reports like dengue, leptospirosis, and influenza, among others.
But he said, “We will stop releasing new numbers. We want to stop the confusion that there is an HFMD outbreak. What we want is for hospitals to just actively report to us these cases and send samples to confirm at the RITM.” (HDT/Jill Beltran/Sunnex) http://www.sunstar.com.ph/breaking-news/2012/07/18/2-kids-enterovirus-recover-232651

7 people oppose de Lima’s candidacy for Chief Justice

MANILA (Updated 4:46 p.m.) — Screening body Judicial and Bar Council (JBC) has received at least seven letters from lawyers and certain individuals who are opposed to the possible appointment of Justice Secretary Leila de Lima as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
Among those who are opposed to her nomination are lawyers Arturo de Castro and Frumencio Pulgar, who feared a slow administration of justice under de Lima because of her penchant for “sensational cases.”
De Lima’s defiance of a temporary restraining order (TRO) released by the Supreme Court allowing former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and her party to leave the country last November was the reason cited by certain Jericho Urquiola and Shiela Marie Gargolez of Iloilo City.
They said the Justice chief disregarded the authority of the highest court of the land when she barred Arroyo, a suspected plunderer, from seeking medical treatment abroad. As a result, de Lima was slapped with a disbarment case, which has yet to be resolved by the Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP).
Others who opposed de Lima’s candidacy are Paul Camillon, Dr. Oscar Noble and Rico Paolo Quicho, one of the lawyers of deposed Chief Justice Renato Corona.
De Lima testified against Corona in his impeachment trial last February, heavily quoting the dissenting opinion of Associate Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno, who said that not all conditions in the TRO were met by Arroyo and husband Jose Miguel.
“Surely, there is not a dearth of good men and women from whose ranks the next Chief Justice of the land may be selected,” Quicho said.
The JBC will accept opposition to the nominees for Chief Justice until July 20, four days before the vetting body will begin to quiz applicants to determine their fitness to lead the judiciary. (Virgil Lopez/Sunnex)

Con-con urged in amending Charter

MANILA (Updated 12:25 p.m.) — An election lawyer said Tuesday that modifying the 1987 Constitution will happen if done through a constitutional convention (con-con) that will be composed of qualified individuals and representatives of political parties.
Romulo Macalintal, whose client includes Charter change (Cha-cha) supporter ex-President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, said doing it through a con-con will break the impasse of conflicting views on how to vote on any proposal under a constituent assembly.
The Constitution is silent on its provision under Section 1(1), Article XVII that “any amendment to or revision of the Constitution may be proposed by Congress, upon a vote of three-fourths of its members.” Congress refers to both the House of Representatives and the Senate.
Macalintal pushes for con-con as a way to amend the Charter.
Discussions on Charter change were revived following statements made by both Senate President Juan Ponce-Enrile and House Speaker Feliciano Belmonte on the issue.
Enrile and Belmonte reportedly prefer to have a constituent assembly in pushing for reforms such as total foreign ownership of land and bigger military allocation in the Charter.
Past debates on holding a bicameral constituent assembly, however, showed the congressmen wanted the vote to be done jointly with the senators, whose numbers pale in comparison.
There are over 280 congressmen as opposed to 23 senators. With this, the Senate earlier said that voting shall be “separately,” meaning each house should get the three-fourth of their respective members to validate an amendment of the Constitution.
Macalintal said the delegates should be appointed by the President and not elected. The law creating it may also give political parties the privilege to nominate their delegates on the basis of proportional representation from the parties accredited with the Commission on Elections (Comelec).
In 1986, former President Corazon Aquino handpicked the individuals who drafted the present Constitution. This resulted in savings for the government as Macalintal said electing delegates will also be “too divisive” for the country.
The administration has been cool about Charter change but in the event the government would really push for this, it is best to do so while President Benigno Aquino III is in power because he is not interested to extend his term, Senator Edgardo Angara said.
He said the country can be assured that President Aquino has no interest in staying in power for more than one term, which ends in 2016.
While some legislators are pushing for Cha-cha to amend the economic provisions of the Constitution, Angara, a former Senate president, urged Congress to consider changing the political structure.
“We have to empower the local government. We have to decentralize and transfer more control from the center, from Malacañang and Manila to the provinces. Our country will definitely grow,” he said.
Angara further encouraged political parties to take a stand on Cha-cha in time for the midterm elections next year.

Ex-Pagcor officials face plunder, graft raps

MANILA (Updated 1:30 p.m.) — The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (Pagcor) filed Tuesday plunder and graft charges against its former chairman Efraim Genuino and three others in relation to the excessively priced coffee products that were sold in at least five Casino Filipino branches.
Named respondents in the case filed before the Office of the Ombudsman are former Pagcor officials Rafael Francisco (president), Rene Figueroa (senior vice president and senior managing head of Research Development Department), and Promolabels owner Carlota Cristi Manalo-Tan.
A report on government website www.gov.ph said the 25-page complaint was initiated by the current Pagcor Board. The agency’s Board authorized incumbent Directors Jose Tanjuatco and Enriquito Nuguid to sign and file the complaint.
According to the complaint, from 2001 to 2010, Genuino, Francisco and Figueroa, in their capacities as officials and/or employees of Pagcor, directed Casino Filipino branches “to enter into concession agreements with Promolabels with a view towards enriching themselves and coffee concessionaire Manalo-Tan through the sale and purchase of overpriced Figaro coffee products, to the damage and prejudice of the Filipino people.”
Documents obtained by the present Pagcor management revealed that the previous Board headed by Genuino approved a resolution on May 16, 2001, granting the proposal of Figaro Coffee Company to set up coffee kiosks in its Casino Filipino branches wherein the prices of beverages “will be similar to the prices in the malls.”
Pursuant to the said resolution, the previous Pagcor Board gave Figaro franchisee Promolabels concession agreements in seven Casino Filipino branches.
Manalo-Tan signed the agreements on behalf of Promolabels, while Genuino and Francisco signed/co-signed most of these contracts on behalf of the casino branches.
Manalo-Tan is the wife of Johnny Tan, a known ally of Genuino. Johnny Tan was in fact the second nominee of the Bida party-list, a political group identified with Genuino, during the 2010 national elections.
All seven contracts, which gave Promolabels a virtual monopoly as coffee supplier in Pagcor’s casinos, were awarded to Manalo-Tan without public bidding, which is prescribed by law.
Promolabels was initially given three- to five-year contracts that were renewed and/or extended following the expiration of their original terms, likewise without the benefit of public bidding, the complaint said.
In the original contracts with Pagcor, it was stated that Promolabels was a duly registered corporation. However, Pagcor found out upon verification that it was not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The current Pagcor management called for an exhaustive audit following the discovery of the billion-peso coffee expenses incurred by the previous administration, the bulk of which went to Manalo-Tan’s Promolabels.
Pagcor’s audit team discovered that from 2005 to 2008 alone, five Casino Filipino branches paid at least P258 million to Promolabels for coffee products.
The prices charged by Promolabels for its Figaro coffee products were much higher than the prices at which the exact same products were sold by Figaro coffee shops operating outside the Casino Filipino branches during this four-year period.
This contradicted the original resolution issued by the Genuino-led Pagcor Board on May 16, 2001, that the selling price of Figaro coffee beverages will be similar to the prices of these products inside the malls.
“For the years 2005 to 2008 alone, Pagcor could have saved at least P78 million if only the prices of Promolabels’ Figaro coffee products were the same as those of other Figaro franchisees,” the state-owned gaming firm cited in its complaint.
The Pagcor complaint also cited that Genuino, Francisco and Figueroa were “repeatedly informed of the losses being suffered or incurred by the Casino Filipino branches as a result of their transactions with Promolabels, and they refused or otherwise failed to act to stem or prevent further losses.”
Several Audit Observation Memoranda (AOM) prepared by COA Auditors assigned to the Casino Filipino branches and/or the Pagcor Head Office revealed that sometime in 2006, the Auditors already raised several concerns regarding the validity and implementation of the concession agreements with Promolabels. They stated that Pagcor should have conducted a public or competitive bidding as required by government procurement laws prior to awarding of the said agreements to Promolabels.
The AOMs also noted the material disparities between the prices of Promolabels’ Figaro coffee products and those of other Figaro franchisees operating outside, the casinos that went as high as 74 percent. The AOMs stated that Pagcor could have saved considerable amounts of money if only Promolabels sold the products at the same prevailing prices of Figaro franchisees outside Casino Filipino at that time.
Pagcor also stated in its complaint that despite knowing the audit observations, “the respondents refused or failed to demand price reductions from Promolabels, and even went out of their way to give several justifications for Promolabels’ higher prices.”
Moreover, the justifications were prepared in a matter of days from the respondents’ receipt of the AOMs “which leads to a conclusion that the respondents did not even bother to conduct a full and exhaustive review of Promolabels’ justifications for its excessively priced coffee products.”
What made matters worse was when respondent Figueroa still allowed Promolabels to increase further the prices of its coffee products a year after despite COA’s issuance of the AOMs, the complaint said.
“The respondents’ acts of procuring coffee from, and “leasing” spaces to Promolabels without observing government procurement laws and their refusal to demand price reductions from Promolabels despite notices of irregularities affecting the concession agreement and the losses being suffered by the Casino Filipino branches under these contracts caused undue injury to the government and gave Manalo-Tan unwarranted benefits, advantages and preferences,” the Pagcor complaint pointed out.
In filing the complaint, the current Pagcor management had to work back on all the documents pertaining to Promolabels transactions. The agency’s Auditors had to validate and verify every invoice and receipt of Promolabels, particularly for the period covering 2005 to 2008.
The billion-peso coffee issue was first exposed by President Benigno Aquino III during his first State Nation Address last July 2011.

Bishops call for truthful Sona MANILA — This year’s State of the Nation Address (Sona) of President Benigno Aquino III should only reflect the actual situation of the country, the president of an influential Catholic bishops’ group said Monday. “For us bishops, even to me personally, we just hope that what President Aquino will tell is will be truthful,” Cebu Archbishop Jose Palma, president of Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP), said over Church-run Radio Veritas. Also, the Cebu archbishop said he is hoping that the Sona will not promote further political division but rather unity. “When we solicit for the cooperation of many, who have the competence, and when we encourage people to collaborate and work together, then we can really provide solution to most, if not all of our problems,” said Palma. In order to help the government, the prelate said Aquino can be assured the members of the CBCP will pray for guidance on July 23, the day the President will deliver his third Sona. “We pray for our leader to be inspired by the Holy Spirit to really think and plan for the good of our country,” said Palma. Militant group Karapatan, meanwhile, scored the lack of improvement of human rights situation in the country two years after the unpopular Arroyo administration ended. Cristina Palabay, Karapatan spokesperson, said they have documented 95 victims of extrajudicial killings from July 2010 to June 30, 2012. Among the 95 victims, 43 were rights workers in various organizations and institutions. Karapatan data also showed farmers, indigenous peoples and environmental activists being killed. “The communities opposing anti-people projects are victimized through threats, harassment, torture, and repression by the AFP (Armed Forces of the Philippines) and paramilitary groups. This is the real purpose of Aquino’s Oplan Bayanihan – to quell legitimate people’s opposition and enable the plunder of the country’s resources at the expense of the people’s economic rights,” Palabay said in an email. On Sunday, deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte said that speechwriters are still at work on the Sona’s contents one week before the event at the House of Representatives in Quezon City. http://www.sunstar.com.ph/breaking-news/2012/07/16/bishops-call-truthful-sona-232269

Senior US Pacific Command official pays Aquino a visit

MANILA — Visiting United States Pacific Command commander Admiral Samuel Locklear arrived in Malacañang on Monday for a scheduled courtesy call before President Benigno Aquino III.
Presidential Communications and Strategic Planning Secretary Ramon Carandang, who was present during the courtesy call, said Locklear’s visit aimed to reaffirm long standing partnership between the United States and the Philippines.
He said Locklear reiterated the US government’s support for the Philippine efforts to build a minimum credible defense posture.
“The minimum credible defense posture is something that we wanted to do since we came in office. Before we had issues with China, the President has always said that we need to develop a minimum defense credible posture. I think that has been consistent whether or not we have had issues with China that was indeed has been recognized from day one of the administration,” Carandang said.
He said there was no specific discussion on the West Philippines Sea issue and was only touched in “broad strokes.”
Presidential spokesperson Edwin Lacierda, meanwhile, said there will be an “in-depth” discussion between Locklear and Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario regarding the territorial dispute at a meeting Monday afternoon.
Other officials present in the meeting were US ambassador to Philippines Harry Thomas, del Rosario and Executive Secretary Paquito Ochoa.
Locklear arrived in Manila for a three-day visit from July 15 to 17.
He visited Manila amid worsening tensions in the West Philippine Sea (South China Sea) after Southeast Asian diplomats failed to reach a common ground on how to deal territorial dispute involving China.
The Philippines is also in the middle of investigation into the Chinese frigate that ran aground at Hasa-hasa shoal off Palawan.
Locklear is paying his first visit in Manila since taking command at US Pacific Command in March.
In his interview before going to Manila, he said he is looking forward to building on the historic US-Philippine bilateral defense relationship that marked its 60th anniversary last year.
He reiterated the US stand not to take sides in territorial disputes and encourages peaceful resolution through international legal processes.
As the senior US military authority in the Pacific Command, Locklear is committed to enhancing stability in the Asia-Pacific region by promoting security cooperation, encouraging peaceful development, responding to contingencies and deterring aggression.

Oil firms spike up petroleum prices

MANILA — Three oil companies raised prices of petroleum products Tuesday, the second spike this month, allegedly to reflect prices of crude oil in the international market.
Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corp. and Petron Corp., two of the country’s major oil firms, and independent oil company Eastern Petroleum, hiked pump price of gasoline by P1 per liter; diesel by P0.50 per liter; and kerosene by P0.35 per liter.
Shell and Eastern Petroleum enforced the price hike at 12:01 a.m. and Petron at 6 a.m.
Last July 10, oil companies enforced a price hike of P1.55 per liter on premium gasoline, P1.80 per liter on regular gasoline and P1.40 per liter on both diesel and kerosene that ended their 13 consecutive weeks of price rollbacks.
Oil firms tweak pump prices on a weekly basis, based on movements in the international market.
Meanwhile, other oil companies have yet to announce an adjustment as of posting Tuesday.

Cop relieved for refusing to make way for Aquino’s convoy

MANILA — A policeman was reportedly relieved from his post for allegedly refusing to make way to the convoy of President Benigno Aquino III along Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City Tuesday.
The policeman was identified as Senior Police Officer 2 Ricardo Pascua.
Presidential spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said the incident happened when the President was on his way back to Malacanang after attending the inauguration of the second phase of the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System’s (MWSS) Angat Water Utilization and Aqueduct Improvement Project (AWUAIP) at the La Mesa Dam Portal in Lagro, Quezon City.
“We understand that there was a policeman who was driving a red Tamaraw and apparently the convoy was already on the way back,” Lacierda said.
“I think that’s somewhere in the House of Representatives area and the policeman was quite arrogant in insisting that he be allowed to do a U-turn whereas the convoy was already going straight. In fact, we understand that he even showed a badge to the motorcycle cops who were escorting the convoy,” he further said.
Lacierda refused to confirm that Pascua was sacked, saying that he was turned over to the Quezon City police department.
“We leave the administrative supervision of that policeman to the Quezon City police department,” Lacierda said
He added that Presidential Security Group Commander Brigadier General Ramon Matteo Dizon said that he filed a report to the Quezon City police for “disciplinary action.”
Dizon said he wondered why Pascua had refused to make way for the President’s convoy adding that he should have respected it.

Sunday, July 15, 2012

LIKE in the past, the day of the State of the Nation Address (Sona) of President Benigno Aquino III will not be declared as a holiday.

Aquino is set to deliver his third Sona on July 23.

“There will be no declaration of a holiday. I haven’t heard of any discussion to make it a non-working holiday,” deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte said in a radio interview Sunday when asked about plans of declaring July 23 as a holiday.

Valte said the President is reviewing the fifth draft of his speech.

The Sona is a constitutional duty of the President where he addresses the Congress at the opening of its regular session at every fourth Monday of July.

Aside from the speech, the wardrobe of the President is also being prepared, according to Valte.

She confirmed that veteran designer Paul Cabral will again dress up the country’s Chief Executive.

Cabral is the favorite designer of Aquino’s late mother former President Corazon Aquino.

He also made the gowns of Aquino’s four sisters during the first Sona. (Jill Beltran/Sunnex) http://www.sunstar.com.ph/breaking-news/2012/07/15/aquino-s-3rd-sona-remains-not-holiday-232086

Dolphy laid to rest
By Glaiza Jarloc
Sunday, July 15, 2012

MANILA (2nd Update, 2:50 p.m.) — Comedy King Rodolfo Vera “Dolphy” Quizon Sr. was laid to rest Sunday afternoon at the Heritage Park in Taguig City.

The comedian’s gold coffin was carried by his friends to his tomb. Among those who carried the casket was Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim.

The comedy king was buried at his jet black granite niche, which sits at 39 square meters lot projected to be worth P3 million. His resting place was decorated by white lilies, daisies and anturiums. Photos of Dolphy were placed in the area.

Dolphy’s tomb is located along Heritage drive in the western part of the cemetery. During the funeral, Dolphy’s sons Vandolph, Ronnie, Epi and Eric were seen hugging each other, while Maricel Soriano seated beside the director.

Zsa Zsa Padilla, Dolphy’s partner for 23 years, was seated beside daughters Zia and Nicole. Her oldest daughter Karylle also attended the funeral and showed her support to her mother and the whole Quizon clan. Karylle’s dad is Zsa Zsa’s first husband Dr. Modesto Tatlonghari.

Zsa Zsa, in her short message delivered before the crowd, thanked all those who showed love and support to the Comedy King and their entire family.

Her message to Dolphy was: “We love you. I love you Lovey. Until we meet again.”

At the end of the service, confetti and white doves were released at the memorial park.

The whole Quizon family wore white clothes except for Zsa Zsa, who wore a black dress. Dolphy’s friends in the industry also attended the interment. Among those spotted were television host Vhong Navarro, Bibet Orteza, Angeli Pangilinan, Ricky Davao, Nova Villa, Eddie Garcia, and Ronald Singson.

During the necrological service on Sunday morning, Edu Manzano, actress Carmi Martin, showbiz couple Annabelle Rama and Eddie Gutierrez paid their last respects to the comedy king.

Veteran actress Susan Roces and daughter Grace Poe-Llamansares were also present during the mass. The Poes are very close to Dolphy as the latter is a staunch supporter of the late Fernando Poe Jr.

During the burial, fans were barred from entering the cemetery premises as requested by the family, as the Quizons wanted to spend their last moments with their patriarch.

More than 80 policemen were deployed in the area by the Taguig National Police. Security personnel from the Heritage Park were also around to help secure the cemetery.

Dolphy passed away at 8:34 p.m. of July 10 after his long battle with progressive illness Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).

Before his passing, the comedian was confined at the intensive care unit of the Makati Medical Center for one month.

During his four-day wake, friends from the entertainment industry, government and his supporters flock to the cemetery.

The three major television networks – ABS-CBN, GMA, and TV5 — also sponsored necrological services and eulogy for the comedy king.

Last Wednesday, Dolphy’s remains were brought to ABS-CBN compound in Quezon City where a mass and a special tribute took place.

The event was attended by station’s Chairman and CEO Gabby Lopez, President Charo Santos-Concio and other top honchos.

Talents of ABS-CBN also paid their last respects to Dolphy. The eulogy was led by Toni Gonzaga, Ted Failon and Kris Aquino. The wake was attended by Vina Morales, Diether Ocampo, Sam Milby, Vice Ganda, Vhong Navarro, Randy and Rowell Santiago, Maricel Soriano, and Angelica Panganiban, among others.

On Thursday night, TV5 also gave Dolphy a fitting tribute for a King. The event was led by Chairman Manny V. Pangilinan, Bobby Barriero, Perci Intalan and other TV5 executives.

On Friday morning, GMA-7 President Atty. Felipe Gozon recognized the contributions of Dolphy during his eulogy at the Heritage Park. http://www.sunstar.com.ph/breaking-news/2012/07/15/dolphy-laid-rest-232084
