Answer raps, Ombudsman tells

Rep. Fuentebella affirms
Mayor Gaite
loyalty to VP Binay

By Frank Peones Jr.

Baao, Cam. Sur -- The Office of

the Ombudsman has ordered Mayor
Melquiades I. Gaite of this town to answer in a counter-affidavit the charges
filed against him by incumbent municipal councilor, Dante O. Bismonte on the
lease contract the mayor forged with the
Lamver Consolidated Complex Corporation, Inc. or LCC.
In two separate complaints, Bismonte
charged Gaite for violation of R.A. 3019,
or the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act;
and R.A. 7160, or the Local Government

Code of 1991, and Municipal Ordinance No.3,

Series of 2012 or the Revised Market Code of
Baao, Camarines Sur.
The complaints stemmed from what Bismonte alleged as Gaites deliberate and calculated acts in concluding a contract with LCC
for the lease of a portion of the 1st and 2nd
floors of the Baao Public Market Building totalling 1,704.4 square meter, for a period of 25
years.
Bismonte maintained that the 25-year period violates Municipal Ordinance No.3, which
provides a 5-year limit to such a similar contract. The contract, he maintained, accorded

Naga City -- Camarines Sur 4th

Disrict Representative Wimpy Fuentebella expressed resentment over the
issue on his alleged support of Presidential candidate Grace Poe. Cong. Wimpy
raised this concern after a radio station
in Camarines Sur intimated a shift in
loyalties by the young solon.
"The intimation that I have breached
my relationship with the Vice President by
shifting camp is an affront to my dignity.
I have been unequivocal in our position
of confidence in the competence, capability, and character of the Vice President.
My father, Speaker Noli Fuentebella and
brother, Tigaon Mayor Arnie, share the
same sentiments".
The Fuentebellas, an influential name
in the political landscape of Partido, the
4th District of Cam.Sur, have long been
a staunch ally of Vice President Jejomar
Binay, who is eyeing the Presidency this
coming May 2016 election.
"Our family has always regarded the
virtue of loyalty as the most essential. It is
the essence of relationships; one that can
never be compromised." He further said
that the Fuentebella's enduring leadership
in the political arena can be attributed to
the loyalty that they accord their party, allies, friends, and constituents.
VP Binay is a close ally of the Fuentebellas. Cong. Fuentebella knew of Binay's

Rep. fuentebella
industry and dedication when they worked
together in the housing and urban development sector. "I believe that VP Binay's track
record as a compassionate human rights
lawyer, an accomplished executive, and a
humble public servant augurs well for the development and change the country needs. He
will always have my respect and unflinching
support."

Signs of the Times
Their
apparition
started
in
September, agaw-eksena with Inas
fiesta.
By the branches of trees or electric
posts, their faces announce they join
the celebration or are welcomed by
groups who obviously are beneficiaries of their generosities. Tarpoliticians they are called.
More will surely be coming after the
deadline for the filing of candidacies.
Perhaps, part of the COMELECs or the
DENRs concern should be protecting
the trees or peoples unobstructed
views. If these tarpoliticians have the
right to display their faces, perhaps
the people too have the right not to
see them.
Yet, somehow, tarpaulins have their
uses too. They provide business
for one. A politician for example
in Rinconada has cornered the
business by requiring all applicants
for permits to have their tarps printed
in his shop. They do not have conflict
of interests or ethical conducts
obviously out there.
They are certainly propaganda
materials and provide tips for
examination of conscience. For
instance, that tarp near the PiliNaga boundary takes off from the
questions priests asks sponsors
in baptism. Isinisikwal nindo
an korapsyon, pan-aabuso asin
biyolensya sa Kapitolyo? Such a
sharp and terse question. It makes
you see the devil grinning in front
of you.
This is just of one of the coming
signs of the times. Ano, isinisikwal

North Mindanao Visit

(Atty. APA chairs Acyatan & Co.,
CPAs-DFK International is past chair
of ASEAN Federation of CPAs, PICPA
past president and Hall-of-Famer,
and ACPAPP Lifetime Achievement
Awardee).
CDO REVISITED: I was again in
Mindanao last week accompanying
the Healing Priest of Quezon (Fr. Joey
Faller) for his praying healing sessions
at the Lim Kit Kai commercial center
(Cagayan de Oro) and at the Divine
Mercy Shrine (El Salvador City). During
our trip from Laguindingan airport
to CdO we saw on going massive
construction works private and public
infrastructures. My prediction: the City
of Golden Smiles may overtake Davao
City in the next decade as Mindanao
industrial center.
Having finished our religious chores
on our first day, our organizers brought
us the following day uphill to Bukidnon
- rich agro-agricultural province. We
had whole day stay at the Forest Park
Resort owned by former Cong Jess
Paras. Going there, we passed by
the (former) Dole pineapple plantation
and the classy Menzi Housing Project.
Forest Park is favorite tourist park,
complete with adventure activities. The
100-hectare (combined areas) parks
are owned by the Paras siblings.
FACILITATION:
Exporters are
working to achieve the 8-10% exports
growth target this year amid softening
of major overseas markets, banking on
the implementation of trade facilitation
measures. Such measures should be
able to cover for areas where there
could be market failures, according to
PhilExport president Sergio Ortiz-Luis
Jr. He cited studies that indicated trade
facilitation is the key to reducing cost of
international trade transactions through

opinions
unlimited
Atty. TONY (APA) ACYATAN
simplification and harmonization of
procedures.
Another study made for ASEAN
and East Asia revealed that inefficient
trade procedure such a days delay in
a shipment reduces trade volume by
at least one percent. The exporters
group identified other proposals and
programs such as self-certification and
e-certification, e-filing of government
documents, virtual trade repository,
one-stop shops and similar projects
which are deemed complementary
trade facilitation moves. These are the
only ways for our countrys business to
be competitive!
POLITICS: The early filing of
Certificate of Candidacies (7 months
in advance) is clearly advantageous to
politicians allied with the Administration.
There are available funds that can be
released by government to candidates,
especially
those
supported
by
Malacaang. Indeed, our Philippine
elections favor those aligned with the
fund-holders.
More money means
more campaign funds whether these
be in the form of campaign materials or
dole-outs.
In due time as election time nears
and as party affiliation shifts, it will

be clearer later as to who are for,

against, the Pinoy-anointed ones.
Since Budget Secretary Florencio
Abad is not expected to resign his
post, he would still be in full control
to implement the presidential budget
instructions. Truly, money will talk
bringing campaign advantages. Our
voters should be wary and wiser of
these election realities. Tanggapin
ang pera at bumoto ayon sa
konsensya!
BIRTHDAY: Instead of a lavish
party, our family celebrated my 74th
birthday by conducting a FREE
MEDICAL CLINIC for indigents.
With our volunteer doctor-friends,
we treated 257 patients yesterday complete with blood typing, urinalysis,
BP and FBS checking and individual
medical consultation. All
patients
were provided with free medicines,
modest snacks, milk and canned
goods. Many are asking what position
I will run for? We can give without
thinking of recompense!
ACYATAN
FOUNDATION
celebrates family birthdays and
occasions by conducting activities
giving away benefits for our indigent
brothers and sisters. This is our way
of thanking our Lord for the blessings
that He bestowed on me and my
family. I was orphaned as a young
age, left by poor, uneducated parents.
We were squatters in the Catholic
church orchard in Paete, Laguna. As
a young boy, I ventured out, worked
and studied in Camarines Sur and
became a CPA-Lawyer! We must
share our blessings!
EPISTLE: Seek first the Kingdom
of God and His righteousness, and
all these things will be given you
besides.

Mayor Arnie Fuentebella for Governor & Atty. Peachy Alfelor for
Vice-Gov., Rep. Wimpy Fuentebella affirms loyalty to VP Binay
Forerunners in surveys should
publish their past and present track
record.
It now seems that the people clamoring
for change in the province were able
to convince Arnulfo Bryan Arnie B.
Fuentebella, Mayor of Tigaon, C.S., to
run for Provincial Governor in the coming
May 2016 election. Arnie preferred Cong.
Dato Arroyo to be Governor but did not
like to run. An alliance of leaders in the five
districts were able to form an opposition
ticket that will run against the incumbents
in the Capitol. Their battlecry is to fight
abuses, violence and corruption and bring
back respect to the people. The line-up is
complete from Governor, Vice Governor,
Board Members and Mayors and Members
of the Municipal Councils.
Atty. Peachy Alfelor-Moraleda, daughter
of former Cong. NancingAlfelor of the 5th
district will be his running-mate for Vice
Governor. She is the President of the
University of North Eastern Philippines. She
was formerly President of the Integrated
Bar of the Philippines in Camarines Sur.
Like what he announced on radio, Cong.
Rolando Andaya, Jr. of the 1st district will be
the campaign manager and will also take
charge of the 1st and 2nddisrtricts. Cong.
Wimpy B. Fuentebella of the 4th district who
is not running for reelection, will also be a
campaign manager for the national and
local candidates. I was informed that former
Cong. Luis R. Villafuerte has expressed
support to the entire team.
Who is Arnie B. Fuentebella? He
is the son of former House Speaker
NoliFuentebella and Mayor Evelyn
Fuentebella, a younger brother of Rep.
Wimpy. He is a Philosophy graduate of the

from
my
window
nenita fuentebella-peones
University of the Philippines (UP Diliman)
and an entrepreneur.
Mayor Arnie Fuentebella has so many
accomplishments but Ill just mention a
few in this issue. In setting the goals of his
administration for Tigaon, Arnie adhered
to the objectives of his father, Cong.
NoliFuentebella, called HEEWI to provide
health, services, education, energy, water
and infrastructures and to make Tigaon
the agri-business center of Partido.
Under Arnies leadership, Tigaon
received the Department of Interior
and Local Governments Seal of Good
Housekeeping in 2011 (Gold) and
2012 (Silver) for good planning, sound
fiscal management, transparency and
accountability and valuing of performance
information.
He established Tigaon Infirmary as
a 24/7 hospital that can respond to
emergencies and provide curative health
care, acquired two ambulances, one thru
sisterhood with Makati City. Provided
funding for a pharmacy at the infirmary.
Improved tax collection by more than
300% in 2008 from 2006 and increased

the municipality gross income.

Set up new primary schools in
barangays and completed grade
schools in others. Established day care
centers.
Concreted access roads to barangays
and improved farm to market roads.
Distributed certified seeds, organic
fertilizers to farmers to ensure ample
production of food locally.
Mayor Arnie can render the same
service to the people of the province
and even more.
If he and his team-mates are elected
by the people this coming election. If
the incumbent officials have the CWC,
Arnie and his ticket has HEEWI as its
flagship.
*****
Even if the candidates for next
years election have not yet registered
their candidates, the election fever
is alreadywith us and with it comes
propagandas and misinformations. In this
connection, Cong. Wimpy B. Fuentebella
of the 4th district of Cam. Sur refuted
reports that the Fuentebellas of Bicol
shifted their allegiance to independent
candidate Sen. Grace Poe ahead of the
May 2016 presidential race.
He said: I believe that VP Binays
track record as a compassionate human
rights lawyer, an accomplished executive
and a humble public servant augurs
well for the development and change
the country needs. Vice Pres. Binay will
always have my respect and unflinching
support.
Our family has always regarded the
virtue of loyalty as the most essential. It is

sa mga blogs, Facebook posts asin dyaryo, saro daa ini sa
pinakamagayon na pelikulang Filipino na naguibo. Dakol na
pag-omaw hali sa mga kritikong pampelikula an naresibe
kan Heneral Luna. Ini saro naman sa kinokonsidera na
opisyal na entry sa Oscars sa kategoryang foreign language
film. An nasabing pelikula guinibo sa direksyon ni Jerrold
Tarog asin sa pangenot kan actor na si John Arcilla sa papel
bilang Antonio Luna. Apuera kan critical acclaim sa pelikula,
ugwa man ining dakulang ganansya sa takilya. Ini ugwang
mahiwas na atraksyon sa mga paradalan lalo na sa mga
kajovenan.
Binuhay kan pelikula an interes kan mga paradalan sa
historya kan Pilipinas na ugwang napapanahon na tema.
Masasabing makatutubod ang pag-ganap kan mga actor.
Dakol an nagsasabing nagsimpatya sinda ki Luna sa pelikula
asin garo nailaag ninda an saindang sadiri sa mga sitwasyon
na pinag-agihan kan karakter. Naipahiling na an satong mga
bayani, particular si Antonio Luna, mga totoong tawo palan
na kumplikado asin bakong perfecto. Epektibong naipahiling
kan pelikula na dakol sa mga problema kadto kan satong
mga ninuno problema pa nangad hangang sa ngonyan.
Kabali na igdi an pagkawatak-watak kan mga Pilipino dahil
sa regionalismo, kapretso asin pampersonal na interes.
Si problema kadto na pagigin makasadiri asin makitid
na isip kan ibang mga lideres yaon pa man. Kan panahon
ni Heneral Luna ugwang mga kapareho nya opisyales na
habong magsunod saiya dawa aram nindang tama sya por
dahil lang ta habo nindang masapawan o suyado sinda ki
Luna na sa heling ninda arogante asin mayong pakisama.
Siguro masyadong nagin buta si Heneral Luna
sa pagsunod sa saiyan prinsipyo asin ideyalismo na
pagkasararoon, gibuhon propesyonal asin disiplinado an
mga rebolusyonaryong soldados kan pinakaenot na republika
sa Asya. Bilang eksperto sa mga taktika asin stratehiyang
militar, si Luna dapat an nagin komandante sa giyera laban sa
mga mananakop na Amerikano. Ini kuta dapat dae nahaluan
nin hababaw na pulitika. Alagad maski si Presidente Emilio
Aguinaldo dae man tulos tinubod si dakol na mga swestyon
ni Luna arog halimbawa kan taktikang girilya. Kan kasuarin
padaog na asin mayo na nin makusog na motibasyon si mga
rebolusyonaryo saka lang naguiromduman ni Aguinaldo na
guibuhon si swestyon ni Luna. Dakol man an nagsususpetsa
na si Aguinaldo mismo an nagsugo o nagbasbas kan
paglikida ki Luna.
Kun ugwa man pinaka-importanteng manunodan sa
pelikula, bako ini si mga historical facts o mga detalyes
na nakapalaog igdi. An pelikula ni Tarog nagpamata sa
mga paradalan na an pinaka dipisil na kalaban ta na mga

In his complaint, Bismonte said that the Department of
Interior on Local Government
(DILG) Region V opined that
for Gaite to conclude a contract of lease that has a 25-year
lifetime, it is necessary that
he first secure a separate authority from the Sangguniang
Bayan because Municipal Ordinance No. 3 only authorizes
a 5-year contract, and that the
contract concluded between
the respondent (Gaite) and
the LCC was unenforceable
under Article 1403 of the
Civil Code being entered into

by one party in excess of the

authority given him by his
principal.
Opinion No. 2014-02 dated June 20, 2014 was issued
by the DILG Regional Office
V in response to the query of
Vice Mayor Cherry P. Sapugay inquiring on the matter,
including the power of the
Market Awards and Regulation Committee, a body tasked
to oversee the award, use and
occupancy of the stalls in the
public market of the town, to
grant authority to the mayor
to enter into a 25-year lease
contract.
The Ombudsman has given Gaite ten days from the

due importance to the social

protection of their employees,
thats why we give the Top
Employer Award to deserving
employers. This is also to recognize their role as partners
or kabalikat of SSS and to encourage employers to uphold
and comply with the provisions of SSS law, Despuig
said in an interview.
The search is open to all
regularly paying employer,

both for contribution and loan

repayments and those who
submits collection list electronically ( EDI, flash disk, or
thru the web) and is registered
as an SSS web user.
Pepsi Cola Products Philippines, Inc. was chosen for its
compliance to the provisions
of SSS law such as the reporting of newly hired employees
to their office within 30 days
from date of employment by

submitting SSS form R1-A.

This includes the willingness
of the employer to present
documents to prove that the
employees are covered by the
social security.
Thirty (30) per cent for the
collection, which include the
up-to-date payment of contributions and loan repayments
as of March 2014 and the advance payment of sickness/
maternity benefits, including the filing and processing
of claims/ loan applications
formed part of the criterion
for the Top Employer selection.
SSS also gave 20 percent
rating to companies or organizations that have submitted
accurate reports on time including participation in SSS
programs which endeavors

to raise the awareness of the

companys human resource
and its programs.
Aside from hailing employers who have responded
to their call of providing their
employees with social security blanket, Despuig stated
that they are also actively
pursuing cases against erring
employers who are not giving
their workforces the services
that they ought to receive.
SSS have added at least 3
lawyers to help prosecute erring employers here in Bicol.
Despuig stated that among
the provinces with a high
prevalence of employer who
have violated SSS rules are
their Sorsogon branch, followed by Daet, Camarines
Norte, Legazpi and the City
of Naga.

LGU Caramoan hosts Abot Alam Integration

By Ana-Liza S. Macatangay
NAGA CITY --- Bannering on the slogan Walang Kabataan Maiiwan
(No Filipino Youth is left
behind), the Department of
Education (DepEd) and the
Local Government Unit of
Caramoan, Camarines Sur
hosted the Integration of
the Abot-Alam Program on
Friday, September 25 at the
CMC Villa Caramoan in
Barangay Caputatan, in the
said municipality.
The activity intends to put
into action the vision of helping community-based youth
to become more productive
through opportunities for education, possible career and
employment. In charge of this
collaboration of various government agencies are DepEd
and the National Youth Commission (NYC), together with
the various national government and non-government organizations.
More than a year after
the Abot-Alam Program was
launched in Caramoan on September 8, the second phase
took place on September 25
this year and was marked with
the conduct of the Integration
program.
With the full backing of
LGU Caramoan under the
stewardship of Mayor Constantino Cordial, Jr., a total
of 98 Out-of-School Youths
(OSYs) from the 49 barangays

of the municipalities together

with its Punong Barangays
gathered at the CMC Villa
Caramoan for the said Integration.
Windel V. Alvarez, ALS
Mobile Teacher said that a total
of 5,364 OSY was mapped out
in Caramoan as of July 2014.
These OSYs were then tracked
down based on their needs
and preferences. Of the 5,364
OSYs, 2,095 OSY signified to
continue their education, 1,097
wants to pursue entrepreneurship, while 2,172 would like to
seek employment.
In his Inspirational Message, Cordial expressed his
full support to the program.
This program, he said, goes
hand-in-hand with the development that the town is currently undertaking particularly
concerning road infrastructure
and promotion of the tourism
industry in the said municipality.
Also present during the Integration were representatives
from the Department of Science and Technology (DOST),
the Technical Education and
Skills Development Authority
(TESDA), and the Philippine
Information Agency (PIA),
who each gave their messages
of support and roles in the program.
Dr. Zenaida B. Llorin, Service Provider for the AbotAlam Program in Caramoan

oriented the participants and

the 98 OSYs who will be undergoing a one-month training
under the said program. She
