ANGELES CITY—The Alliance of Travel and Tour Agencies of Pampanga (Attap) joined Gov. Lilia Pineda in promoting Pampanga’s old churches, saying they are the “main products of the province for tourism.”
Attap President Gilda Padua led her group’s tour of the 10 old churches over the weekend in time for Holy Week when Roman Catholics visit their places of worship in a tradition called Visita Iglesia.
The churches in Betis, Guagua and Minalin towns have been declared National Cultural Treasures.
Padua said Attap named its project as “Huwag Maging Dayuhan sa Sariling Lalawigan [Don’t Be a Stranger in Your Own Province].”
“Attap initiated the project to inform our members of Pampanga’s tourism products. Its takeoff project was a journey to the 10 churches of Pampanga,” said Padua, who operates the two Ties That Travel agencies at SM Clark and Pandan, this city.
She said Attap plans to develop tour programs of the churches by working closely with the Pampanga tourism office.
Pineda welcomed the Attap project to boost tourism in the province. The first-term governor said, “Our churches should be the prime attraction in our province.”
The churches visited by Attap were (First District) Holy Rosary Parish in Angeles City; (Second District) Sta. Lucia Parish, Sasmuan; St. James the Apostle Parish, Betis, Guagua; St. Augustine Parish, Lubao; and Sta. Rita Parish, Sta. Rita; (Third District) San Guillermo Parish, Bacolor and Metropolitan Cathedral, City of San Fernando; (Fourth District) Sta. Monica Parish, Minalin; San Luis Gonzaga Parish, San Luis; and St. Peter the Apostle Parish, Apalit.
Padua said the Attap’s tour was a “dry run” to check its timing to improve the itinerary of the package trips for local and foreign tourists.
“Look, the trip to old churches has big potentials,” said Attap member Agnes Gomez, pointing to three fully loaded buses whose passengers were in the midst of a tour of the 10 churches.
“If Attap and all stakeholders help in promoting it, then there will be more tourists in Pampanga,” said Gomez, who operates the Travel Shop Co. based here.

Solidum of the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOCS) told the local government officials that there is a need to prepare for the worst case scenario during the 5-day seminar on Contingency Planning and Formulation Workshop at King’s Royale Promenade starting yesterday.
“Huwag lang po nating paghandaan ang mga maliliit na kalamidad, we should also prepare for worst-case-scenario,” Solidum said.
Solidum cited several municipalities prone to perennial flooding such as the City of San Fernando, Mexico, Minalin, Sto. Tomas, Macabebe, Masantol, Candaba, San Luis, San Simon, Apalit, among others.
He also mentioned that the province should prepare for calamities such as earthquakes and landslides.
Engr. Lulu Alingcastre, head of Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office (PDRRMO) said there is a need for disaster preparedness and risk reduction management in cooperation with various concerned stakeholders from the communities, local officials, PDRRMC and different line agencies of the government.
On the other hand, Police SSupt, Edgardo Tinio, provincial police director and member of the PDRRMC said there is an emerging challenge that we have to face, it’s the climate change.
According to Tinio, the workshop was arranged to abreast Capampangans about climate change and to make them aware about this emerging challenge – the erratic disaster that continually escalate in the province such as landslide, typhoon and floodings.
Office of Civil Defense Director Josefina Timoteo said we have to brace for the possibilities of hazards, its cause and effect. She also stressed the essence of disaster preparedness and assessment during the workshop.
The 5-day workshop was graced by Governor Lilia Pineda together with Board Members, Monina Laus, Trina Dizon, Cris Garbo, Ric Yabut, Nestor Tolentino and Raul Macalino.

Pampanga Ready For Annual ‘Crucifixion’

Pampanga church keeps treasures in digital form

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO—How did Roman Catholic churches in Pampanga appear in 1790? What are the entries in a Bacolor baptismal book dated 1680 and widely believed to be the oldest in the Philippines? How exactly did early Kapampangans live their faith?
The answers, and many more glimpses of the past, can be found in the digital collection of Spanish-era documents and photographs in the care of the Archdiocesan Archives of San Fernando (AASF) in Pampanga.
Consisting of more than 15,000 digital pages and ready for browsing after Holy Week at the University of the Assumption (UA) in the City of San Fernando and at the Holy Angel University in Angeles City, the AASF is a big contribution to scholarship and spread of Kapampangan culture and history, Archbishop Paciano Aniceto said at the launch on March 20.
The hard copy of the collection bears his official seal through molten wax.
For the live testing, the 75-year-old Aniceto, who does not own and avoids using mobile phones, sat down before a computer, clicked the mouse a few times and shortly gained access to the files of Candaba, the neighbor of his hometown Sta. Ana. As he realized, taking along a translator or refreshing your basic handle of the Spanish language can help you cover more topics.
First in PH
In digitizing portions of the AASF, the Archdiocese of San Fernando became the first archdiocese in the Philippines to go digital in preserving its archives, Prof. Regalado Trota Jose, head of the committee on archives of the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), said during the launch.
“You have provided the lead,” Jose said. The first congregation to have digitized its archives is the Order of Augustinian Recollects in Manila, he said.
The Pampanga initiative had its roots as early as 1979 when then Archbishop Oscar Cruz established the archdiocesan museum and in 1983, and the AASF with the help of Jose and the late Benedictine nun Paz Katigbak. Kept at the Mater Boni seminary, the archives had been inaccessible to the public.
The digitization work took a year and four months to finish on a grant from the NCCA, and guidance from the Archdiocesan Commission on Church Heritage chaired by Auxiliary Bishop Pablo Virgilio David.
More documents
The original materials or microfilms have been obtained from Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila Archives, National Archives of the Philippines, Luther Parker Collection of the National Library of the Philippines, Venancio Q. Samson Collection and Filipinas Heritage Library Collection.
The AASF has more than 200,000 original, handwritten pages in its possession that are waiting to be digitized, David said.
A catalog has been printed for an orderly search and access.
Much of the materials, he said, captured the history of Christianity in Pampanga since 1572 when Augustinian friars evangelized in Betis and Lubao; 1579 when Pampanga was placed under the suffragan of Manila, then a diocese of Mexico; and 1595 when Pampanga remained among the 10 provinces under the Archdiocese of Manila.
The materials also gave a glimpse of the creation of the Diocese of San Fernando in 1948 and the formation of the Archdiocese of San Fernando in 1975 when the dioceses of Tarlac, Balanga and Iba were placed under it.
“We want to foster greater understanding of Pampanga heritage and culture,” said David on why the project was undertaken. “These are treasures.”
“Modern technology secured these for future generations,” said Auxiliary Bishop Roberto Mallari, UA president and who was assigned to set up the Center of Kapampangan Church Heritage.
This was appropriate, Mallari said, because the province produced many church pioneers.
They include Rufino Cardinal Santos (first Filipino cardinal), Don Diego Guinto (first native founder of perpetual pious trust funds or capellañas), Don Miguel Jeronimo de Morales (first native priest), Sor Bibiana Zapanta (first missionary nun sent to help evangelize Mindanao) and Sor Asuncion Ventura (first native to found an orphanage).

Mayor: Tourists should respect Holy Week

ANGELES CITY – Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan said Tuesday tourists should respect the solemnity of the Holy Week.
The mayor issued the statement in reaction to the incident where local and foreign tourists climbed up and posed on the crosses used in the reenactment of the Passion of Christ in Barangay Lourdes North West here.
Some of the pictures were even posted on Facebook, which earned the ire of many.
“The act of some tourists who posed on the cross was not countenanced nor condoned by the Tourism Office or the barangay council of Lourdes North West. According to the village chief, these photos were taken after the program last Friday,” Pamintuan said.
“Tourists should respect the solemnity of the Holy Week. The intention of the Good Friday program was to make the people remember the deeds, sacrifices, sufferings, and death of Christ to save mankind,” the mayor added.
Because of the incident, the barangay council already removed the crosses that were used last Friday, according to Pamintuan.
The mayor also disclosed that barangay officials exhausted all means to present an organized and well-coordinated Lenten presentation.
“They did not allow the holding of illegal gambling and regulated the number of stalls that sold food and beverages,” the mayor said.
The organizers even enclosed the area for security of the public and requested additional personnel from the Philippine National Police and military, medical team, and other city offices.

Injunction vs revenue bureau’s regulation issued

ANGELES CITY – A regional trial court here has issued a writ of preliminary injunction, stopping the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) from enforcing “directly or indirectly” Revenue Regulation No. 2-2012 as it runs contrary to the law that created the Subic and Clark Freeport Zones.
This said regulation is about applying value-added tax (VAT) on all petroleum and petroleum products that are imported and/or brought directly from abroad to the Philippines including Freeport and Economic zones.
“This Court, in the exercise of its sound judicial discretion, finds the prayer for the issuance of the writ of preliminary injunction to be impressed with merits and hereby grants the same,” branch 58 Presiding Judge Philbert Iturralde said in his seven-page decision issued April 4, 2012.
Iturralde ordered the “BIR, its agents, representatives, or assigns, and all persons acting in its place and stead” to cease and desist from enforcing the said regulation.
Iturralde also ordered petitioner, Pampanga 1st District Representative Carmelo Lazatin, to post a P15-million injunction bond to answer for any damage that may be suffered by the BIR in the event that the Court should later determine that the lawmaker is not entitled to the relief prayed for.
Lazatin hailed the BIR and the Finance Department to court after finding that the controversial regulation contradicts Republic Act 7277, the law that created Subic and Clark Freeport Zones. Republic Act 9400 later amended RA 7277.
In his petition, Lazatin emphasized that RA 9400 provides that no national or local taxes shall be imposed on registered business enterprises within the Clark Freeport Zone (CFZ).
In his decision, Iturralde sided with Lazatin, saying “there appears to be a patent conflict between the questioned regulation and RA 9400, in order to prevent injury to the registered businesses inside CFZ, there is a need to restrain the BIR from implementing Revenue Regulations No. 2-2012 until the main case has been heard.”
Iturralde also contradicted BIR’s claim that the regulation merely intends to implement corrective measures which appears to be lacking in the basic law to stop smuggling.
“A careful examination of the statute provides a penal sanction for such act,” Iturralde said, citing Section 9 of RA 9400, which states that “Any registered business enterprise found guilty of smuggling by final judgment, either as principal, accomplice or accessory shall be perpetually barred from doing business in any freeport and special economic zone, in addition to the penalties and sanctions imposed by existing laws.”
The judge also ruled that a department regulation like Revenue Regulations No. 2-2012 cannot go beyond the terms and provisions of the basic law, as decided by the Supreme Court in the case of Philippine Amusements and Gaming Corporation vs BIR.
“Revenue Regulations No. 2-2012 cannot go beyond the provisions of RA 9400 which amended RA 7227,” said Iturralde.

Companies in Manila travel out of town for a short getaway to hold their events and function outside of the city in the north. Many companies choose Clark in Pampanga because of its safety record. Clark is home to some of the best golf courses in Pampanga. Although golf continues to be one of the reasons why visitors from Manila travel to Pampanga, residents of Angeles City, Subic and Bulacan travel to Clark not just to play golf in one of the best golf courses in Pampanga but also to relax and unwind in the best resort in Philippines.

Clark offers some of the best outdoor venues for company outings in Pampanga, Angeles City and Subic. Being so accessible from Manila via the North Luzon Expressway, Clark Philippines is exceptionally convenient for all sorts of events and picnics. Each year, many company events like team building, corporate planning, outings and awarding ceremonies are held in resorts like Clearwater Beach hotel located in the central business district of Clark Pampanga.

Although Clark is not revered for fancy ballrooms and stuffy function rooms, there are many options for meeting and conference facilities. Companies travel out of town from Manila heading north to Pampanga typically look for meeting facilities within leisure and recreational areas.

Clearwater is a highly recommended and most frequently visited private resort in Pampanga. This Clark hotel is a famous private resort outside Manila for corporate planning because of its exclusivity.

DILG to host synchronized barangay assembly in Lubao town

LUBAO — The Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) will conduct the nationwide Synchronized Barangay Assembly Day (SBAD) on March 31 in front of the barangay hall of Barangay San Miguel here.
The event is in pursuance to the Proclamation No. 260, dated September 30, 2011, issued by President Benigno S. Aquino III, declaring the last Saturday of March and the second Sunday of October 2011 and every year that would follow as Barangay Assembly Days.
DILG regional director Florida Duan told Sun.Star Pampanga that the primary objective of the event is for barangay officials and residents to have dialogue on the different issues and concerns affecting the barangay such as peace and order, disaster preparedness, solid waste management and clean-up activities.
“Barangay officials shall likewise present the State of Barangay Address (Soba) with emphasis on CY 2011 Second Semester Accomplishments, Financial Reports and Updates on CY 2012 First Semester on-going programs,” Florida said.
DILG provincial director Angie Blanco said the synchronized village meets are in line with the DILG’s advocacy of transparency and good governance.
“It’s actually a nationwide event in line with President Benigno Aquino III’s ‘matuwid na landas’ and Secretary Jesse Robredo’s call for good governance at the barangay level. But it’s not your ordinary village assembly since this time, every detail would reported by barangay captains like as an example, where funds really where put into,” she said.
“In Pampanga, there would be something new in the SBGR or state of the barangay report since there would be an evaluation or measure in terms of the use of the Barangay Performance Governance System. On March 31, we will start at Lubao where one of its barangays, San Miguel, would be the first to report, particularly on their successful MRF (materials recovery facility),” Blanco added.
Among officials expected to attend the Pampanga assembly, according to Blanco, are Governor Lilia Pineda, DILG regional director Florida Dijan and non-governmental organizations like the Pampanga Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc.

The growing array of hotel resort accommodation, recreation and entertainment facilities, places to unwind and relax, fine dining and family restaurants, bars and pubs makes it increasing easy for tourists and visitors from Manila to spend quality time in a place of leisure in Clark, Pampanga.

To many visitors from Manila, a place of leisure or a good hotel or resort in Pampanga must be located in a city that is safe, clean and not so noisy. Convenience and accessibility are important considerations in choosing a holiday destination in Philippines. Clark Freeport is probably the easiest tourist destination to reach from Manila. Clark also has its own international airport with dozens of daily flights connecting Clark directly with Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Bangkok, Malaysia and South Korea. Clark is home to some of the best golf courses in Pampanga. Although golf continues to be one of the reasons why visitors from Manila travel to Pampanga, residents of Angeles City, Subic and Bulacan travel to Clark not just to play golf in one of the best golf courses in Pampanga but also to relax and unwind in the best resort in Philippines.

Hotels, resorts, vacation rentals, fine dining and family restaurants, bars and pubs, entertainment, nightlife, place of leisure, sports and recreation facilities in Clark and Angeles Pampanga are showcased for the convenience of visitors planning a getaway from Manila or a weekend out of town to relax and unwind in a clean and safe city.

Spa is not the only way to unwind for people who are stressed out by Manila traffic and noise pollution.

Clearwater Resort & Country Club offers several styles of accommodation from US$65 up inclusive of breakfast for two at the beautiful Breakfast Garden Restaurant overlooking the large Clearwater lake and beach. This is a good rendition of the lifestyle that the Americans left behind after they left the Clark Airbase. A good short description of this lifestyle is suburban laid-back slow-paced clean living, very suitable for tourists and guests looking for a way to unwind from the stress of living in Manila.

In a city like Manila, most residents rely on visits to spa and beauty parlor to unwind and relax. But with a short getaway to Angeles City Clark Pampanga one can de-stress by enjoying beautiful outdoor amenities of this beach resort, savoring what nature can offer.

Court’s decision on 2007 polls ‘moral victory’

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO – “It’s simply a moral victory.”
This was Governor Lilia Pineda’s reaction with the recent Supreme Court’s decision junking the appeal of former governor Eddie Panlilio which questioned the Commission on Elections (Comelec) ruling declaring Pineda as the duly-elected chief executive of Pampanga in the May 2007 elections.
Panlilio’s petition was rendered moot and academic by the High Court following the regular national and local elections in May 2010, and the proclamation of winners.
This, the ruling said, “has left the Court no alternative except to dismiss the petition in accord with jurisprudence to the effect that the expiration of the contested term of office renders the petition moot and academic.”
Pineda won the gubernatorial race of May 10, 2010 and assumed office on July 1, 2010.
As per Comelec records, Panlilio won in the 2007 polls with 219,706 votes, as opposed to Pineda’s 218,559 votes.
Pineda contested her win before the Comelec and after a revision of votes, the Second Division subsequently declared her as the duly elected governor.
The Comelec declared that Pineda’s votes totaled 190,729 votes as against the 188,718 votes cast in favor of Panlilio.
Panlilio was then ordered by the Comelec to vacate his post but continuously performed the duties of a governor while the case is still pending before the Supreme Court until his term ended.
“I was not proclaimed and I did not sit as governor,” Pineda said.
It can be recalled that Panlilio served his full term as governor from July 30, 2007 up to June 30, 2010. Pineda did not sit even a single day at the Capitol during that period.
Panlilio elevated the case to the Supreme Court on May 17, 2010.
