DAVAO CITY – The local leaders of Barangay Camam-onan and Gigaquit town of Surigao del Norte declared the New People’s Army (NPA) as persona non grata following the surrender of 28 members of the communist Militia ng Bayan on Friday.
The declaration of the NPA as persona non grata by Camam-onan Barangay Captain Inday Flor Bangga and Gigaquit Mayor Elvira Egay also prompted some 267 members of the Underground Mass Organization (UGMO) to withdrew their support to the NPA.
The surrenderers also handed over seven assorted firearms to the 30th Infantry Battalion of the Philippine Army’s 4th Infantry Division under Lt. Col. Allen Raymund Tomas.
Barangay Camam-onan is one of the 32 villages in Surigao del Norte that have been declared as peace and development zone (PDZ) in the province.
It was in Gigaquit where the PDZ initiative of Caraga region was launched in August last year.
There are currently 116 villages targeted as peace zones – six in Butuan, 22 in Agusan del Sur, 32 in Surigao del Norte and 39 in Surigao del Sur.
With this development, Eastern Mindanao Command (Eastmincom) commander, Maj. Gen. Felimon Santos, lauded the collaboration and cooperation of stakeholders in the peace zones.
Santos expressed optimism that the government and communities will finally achieve peace and cut the cycle of insurgency.
“Way to go. We can achieve the peace that we are longing and cut the cycle of insurgency if we put our acts together and resolve issues and concern being used by the NPA as propaganda subject,” Santos said in a statement.
Col. Ezra Balagtey, Eastmincom spokesperson, said Camam-onan was used to be considered as a conflict-affected area.
Balagtey said the PDZ is a joint peace-building initiative of the Regional Peace and Order Council and the Regional Development Council of CARAGA region which seeks to address the root causes of conflict through reconciliation, peace constituency building, social, political and economic transformation.
The peace zone initiative was introduced by then 4thID commander and now Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Chief of Staff, Gen. Benjamin Madrigal, which sought to use a whole-of-nation-approach in pursuing all socioeconomic programs.
Madrigal said addressing the root causes of conflict needs the support of all government agencies, local government units and all stakeholders.

Pinag-community service ng MMDA ang isang binatilyo matapos mahuling nagtapon ng balat ng ice candy sa Manila Bay.
One young man was recently apprehended for littering in Manila Bay. He was caught throwing an ice candy wrapper. The young man was ordered to serve for community service, according to News 5 report.
Netizens bombarded regretful comments for the young man. They insist that strict discipline should be imposed on people so that much effort to bring back the beauty of the bay won’t go to waste. Putting offenders to community service is a good step as claimed by many. They hope that such ordinance is regularized where an officer is posted in the area at all times.
The Philippines has always been known because of our hospitality. While this seem to be normal for us, some tourists find it amazing that we are naturally that way.
An example of this is a Canadian tourist named John Abou Samra. He went to the Philippines for his “vacation of the year” but what was supposed to be a happy trip ended up in an unfortunate event.
Last June, he started his trip by going to Palawan, for his first couple of days in El Nido, everything went well, but an accident happened when he visited Coron.
According to him, when he was in Coron, he asked someone to take a picture of him. After she took the photo, when he moved to the side, the plank he was stepping on gave in resulting to him falling hip-deep.
“I asked someone to take a picture of me, and then after she took the picture, I moved to this side to sit down. While I moved, two of this wood, they split, and my right leg sank between them up to my hip. Until now I still have the pain.”
There were no wounds but his legs were full of bruises and he was in so much pain. He was brought to Coron District Hospital and was attended by Dr. Edgar Flores. An X-ray and several tests were done to ensure that there were no broken bones, he was then adviced about how he can treat his leg.
He was treated with so much respect and hospitality that it was hard not to be impressed with the way the staff treats their patients.
“Two nurses took care of me the way I could not imagine, plus in the half an hour I stayed in the hospital, I heard the word ‘sir’ more than 25 times. Even when I was wearing something very casual; I looked like a homeless person, they never stopped calling me sir.”
He was so impressed with the hospital that he went back the next day to ask Dr. Flores how he can help. The doctor then showed him a small donation box, but he had an even grander idea.
While he was there, he noticed that the equipment that they were using were old or non-existent. Samra, a bus driver in Canada, was nearing his retirement and the retirement money that he was supposed to get is budgeted for his around the world tour, but he cancelled that just to be able to donate medical equipment to the hospital who turned his unfortunate accident into a comfortable and pleasant one.
He communicated for weeks with the hospital and now, just weeks before his retirement, he already had purchased equipment worth $16,000. He is going to visit Coron again, to personally witness the arrival of the first batch of equipment.
Isn’t it lovely how our hospitality give such joy to other people?
Samra was so impressed with Filipinos that he said:
“If you give them the means, they can work miracles.”
“I like to make a difference.”

The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) extends its deep condolences to the family of a Filipina household service worker who was executed in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.
According to Ambassador Adnan Alonto, Saudi authorities carried out the sentence against the 39-year-old Filipina who was found guilty of murder.
The Department regrets that it was not able to save the life of the Filipina after the Saudi Supreme Judicial Council classified her case as one in which blood money does not apply under Shariah law.
Ambassador Alonto said the Embassy also provided her with a lawyer to assist her in all stages of her trial, sent representatives to visit her, and provided her family in the Philippines with regular updates about her case.
The Department has informed the next of kin who have requested for privacy during their time of bereavement.
Itong mga nagdaang mga araw ay naging laman ng social media ang ginawang paglilinis sa Manila Bay. Matapos kasi linisin ang lugar ay lumitaw ang kagandahan nito. Pero hindi lahat ay bilib sa ginawa ng gobyerno ni Pangulong Duterte. Isa sa mga kritiko ay si Francis Baraan IV, isang human rights advocate.
Para kay Baraan, madali lang naman daw ang paglilinis sa Manila Bay at Boracay. At kaya lang daw to ginawang prayoridad ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte ay para takpan daw ang kapalpakan ng Pangulo bilang Presidente ng bansa. Sana lang daw ay nag-janitor na lang ang Presidente.
Si Baraan IV ay anak ni dating Justice Undesecretary Secretary Fransico Baraan III. Ang ama ni Baraan IV ay nanilbihan sa Justice Department sa ilalim ng panunukulan ni former Justice Secretary at ngayo’y Senadora Leila De Lima. Iniugnay si Baraan III sa kalakaran ng droga sa New Bilibid Prison ni druglord Herbert Colangco. Mariin namang pinabulanan Baraan III ang mga paratang sa kanya.

Isang ama ang inireklamo ng sarili niyang misis matapos umanong pagsamantalahan ang kanilang apat na buwang gulang na anak sa Tarlac. Ang insidente, nangyari umano nang hindi pumayag ang ginang na makipagsipang sa asawa.
Sa ulat ng GMA News TV “Quick Response Team” nitong Biyernes, sinabing napilitang umalis sa kanilang bahay sa Tarlac ang 28-anyos na ginang at ang apat na buwang gulang niyang anak dahil sa pangamba na balikan sila ng kaniyang asawa.
Bunsod ito ng isinampang kaso ng ginang sa kaniyang mister na naaktuhan niyang pinaglaruan ang maselang bahagi ng katawan ng kanilang anak.
Kuwento ng ginang, dakong 6:00 p.m. nang ayain siya ng kaniyang mister na magtalik pero tumanggi siya. Pero pagsapit ng 4:00 a.m., nagising siyang umiiyak ang bata.
Nakita umano niyang hinahawakan ng kaniyang asawa ang maselang bahagi ng kanilang anak.
Sa kabila umano ng nangyari, matapang pa raw ang kaniyang mister at sinabihan siyang bahala sila sa kanilang buhay kapag nagsumbong.
Ayon kay Police Officer 3 Babylyn Valeros, investigator ng Gerona Police, hinihintay nilang lumabas ang subpoena kaugnay sa isinampang kaso laban sa ama.
Sa ngayon, hindi na raw mahagilap sa kanilang tirahan sa Tarlac ang ama.
“Kung naireport po sa amin kaagad, puwede sanang hulihin kaso one week na ang lumipas at hindi po kaagad naireport sa amin,” paliwanag ng pulis.

CLEANUP KICK-OFF. DENR Secretary Roy Cimatu orders the closure of three establishments near Manila bay—Aristocrat, Gloria Maris and Esplanade—that have been found to have violated water disposal regulations as the Manila bay rehabilitation program kicks off.
