American charged for ‘molesting’ children

ANGELES CITY–Police authorities on Tuesday arrested a 54-year old American national for allegedly molesting children.

Steven Wolf, a resident of Barangay Balibago, has been accused of statutory rape and violation of Republic Act 7610 by three minors, aged 10 and 11 years old, who claimed that the foreigner molested them.

The complainants were only identified as Ana, 10, Alice, 10 and Gina, 11(not real names); all pupils of the Sta. Maria Elementary School located at Sta. Maria 1, Barangay Balibago, Angeles City.

Corazon Manansala, principal of the said school, told police in a telephone call the three pupils confided to her their ordeal in the hands of Wolf.

Manansala then reported the matter to police authorities after hearing the complaint of the pupils.
According to the sketchy police report, Wolf committed lewd acts on the victims in the morning of last Tuesday.

Upon receipt of the girls’ complaint, elements of Police Station 4 of the Angeles City Police Office, led by Senior Insp. Felimon Oyan, arrested Wolf in his residence.

Police said two counts of Statutory Rape and abuse of children were filed against the American.
Wolf was brought to the Police Station 4 of Angeles City pending issuance of a commitment order from the court.

The arrest of Wolf came while some members of the city police office were on their way to a five-day seminar on Tourism Oriented Police for Community Order and Protection (TOPCOP) conducted by Department of Tourism (DOT) Undersecretary Ma. Victoria Jasmin of the Tourism Regulation, Coordination and Resource Generation sector (TRCRG).

The DOT has been conducting awareness seminars on Child-Wise Tourism and prevention of abuse against children in places commonly visited by foreign nationals like Cebu, Boracay and Baguio City.

Carjackers’ new modus bared

CAMP OLIVAS, Pampanga – Chief Supt. Edgardo T. Ladao, Police Regional Office 3 director, yesterday warned motorists and owners of high-end vehicles to be alert against the new scheme adopted by carjackers.

Ladao said the Pampanga Police Provincial Office led by Senior Supt. Oscar Albayalde uncovered the new “modus operandi” of the suspects after a carjacking incident in Barangay Dau, Mabalacat City on Monday.

Supt. Ferdinand Perez, Mabalacat City police chief, said the new scheme of the suspects is to bump slightly the rear portion of the victim’s car. “Of course the immediate reaction of every car owner is to stop and go out to check the damage of the car’s rear portion,” Perez said.

At this point, Perez said, the suspects have now the chance to approach the would-be victim and announce the carjacking.

He said the new scheme is plain and simple that every car owner should take into consideration before stopping the car.

He said this was the fate of Regino Pingol, 58, married, a supervisor at Casino Filipino in Angeles City and a resident of No. 15, Gate 1, Lucinda St., San Sebastian Village, Tarlac City.

The victim was on his way home driving a Hyundai Accent sedan car (TIM-729) at around 2:30 a.m. when three suspects aboard an old-look car without plate number bumped the rear portion of his car.

Pingol immediately pulled over to see the damage of his car’s rear portion but instead he was met by the suspects, one of them holding a 45 cal. pistol, and with a gun drawn, said “Put@ňg !na mo, mga pulis kami.”
Sensing danger, the victim ran away but he was chased by the armed suspect. The victim tried to hide at a jeep terminal in Barangay Dau but was caught by the suspect.

When he was about to be shot by the suspect, the victim struggled to free himself.
He said the suspect fired his gun in the air before leaving with his companions taking along with them the victim’s car and personal belongings.

With new golf courses springing up in and around Clark Philippines and an ever-increasing patronage by tourists from neighboring South Korea, Clark Freeport is short on hotel accommodation.

 

Even with the addition of 27 holes in 2009 and 2010, there is an acute shortage golf tee times for at least 5-6 months each year.  Local players compete with frustrated (golf) tourists from Korea and China for tee times.  Unfortunately Clark Philippines doesn’t have the luxury of vast tracts of land suitable for this type of development.

 

Mimosa offers 36 holes of championship golf, visitors can pay and play, busy during the weekends but not that difficult to get on or join up with a group to form a 4-ball.   The new FAKCC offers 27 holes of world-class golf.

Cojuangco eyes Air Force City for sports

CLARK FREEPORT–A top official of the Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) is eyeing select areas of the 300-hectare Air Force City where he is planning to put up various sports facilities for Philippine athletes.

In a dialogue with veteran journalists from the Capampangan in Media, Inc. (Cami) at the Bale Balita here, POC President Jose “Peping” Cojuangco said the Air Force City, a 300-hectare prime lot area here occupied by the Philippine Air Force (PAF), will be a good location to establish training facilities for national athletes.

Cojuangco’s announcement came in the wake of an earlier statement from Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) President Arnel Paciano Casanova, who said the government is planning to transfer the PAF facilities here to Cubi Point in Subic to allow the CDC to lease more lands to future investors.

Originally, Cojuangco was eyeing the upland areas of Clark’s 29,000-hectare sub-zone in the Sacobia Valley after the CDC, in 2011, presented the Clark STAR project to the POC and the Philippine Sports Commission.

The Clark STAR project was supposed to be built on a 200-hectare land at the Northeast tip of Clark, between Mabalacat and the Sacobia River. Aside from having a sports academy and dormitories for athletes, it will have various stadia for indoor games, field events and aquatic sports.

It will also feature a commercial complex, exhibit halls, convention center, promenade, central park, public transport terminal and a monorail link system around the facility.

Also, Cojuangco cited Sacobia’s geographical location saying its mountainous area forms a natural barrier that would prevent athletes from leaving their quarters prompting them to focus more on sports. He added that the Sacobia’s climate and fresh air is ideal for athletes unlike the smoggy environment of the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex.

But Cojuangco emphasized that once the plan to transfer the Air Force City to Subic pushes through, only select areas in the PAF area would be used for various sports facilities.

“I plan to put some of the sports [facilities] here since we have all the space in Clark,” Cojuangco said. “Part of the plan is to refurbish existing sports facilities at the Air Force City like its tennis courts, basketball courts, swimming pool, and Challenger football field.”

Cojuangco also announced that the Philippines will be hosting the general assembly for the Centennial celebration of Asian sports to be held in Boracay this coming November.

“The Olympic Council of Asia is composed of 45 countries and some of the member-countries will be landing in Clark. Also, the Executive Council of the Association of National Olympic Committees or ANOC Executive Council will also attend the general assembly,” Cojuangco revealed.

He said the event is a good opportunity to market the Philippines, particularly the Clark Freeport to potential investors.

“Most of the participants are members of royal families, ministers, multi-millionaires and what they would usually ask me is ‘What is the best place to invest in the Philippines?’ So I want these officials to see Clark to entice them to invest here,” Cojuangco said.

“For me, this will probably be the biggest aggrupation of big people of the world,” Cojuangco said.
He added that “The Association of National Olympic Committees is composed of 205 countries and is bigger than the United Nations.”

EdPam to relocate 500 families from Abacan

ANGELES CITY–Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan announced on Thursday that there are some 1,800 informal settlers living along the Abacan river in at least four barangays.

In his monthly press conference, Pamintuan said he is working on the relocation of 500 families as part of his plan to rid the river of houses and properties. The informal settlers are in Barangays Malabanias, Anunas, Amsic and Pampang.

Pamintuan said the planned relocation site is in Barangay Sapa Libutad. He added that the area is some three hectares and at least 40-square meter of land will be allotted for each family.

“It’s not far from the tollgate and is in fact within the city and not far,” said Pamintuan, referring to the North Luzon Expressway (Nlex) toll gate near the Marquee Mall.

Pamintuan though could not yet categorically say the start of the relocation of the first 500 families. He added that the National Housing Authority (NHA) “is currently working on it.”

“As soon as the site is developed we will start the relocation,” said Pamintuan.
“We applied to the electric and water companies already,” he added.

But Pamintuan stressed that they need the national government to push for other relocation sites for the informal settlers.

“We can’t keep buying lands and developing them over and over again. We need support,” he added.
Pamintuan said he had spoken with barangay officials and asked them to help him on his plan to free the city of informal settlers.

He said one village chief had told him that they could not remove some of the informal settlers because some of them are living along the river for some 20 years now.

“I told this village chief that his reason is not an excuse. It doesn’t mean they have been there for 20 years we will not do something about it,” he added.

Out of 163 first class municipalities surveyed, Guagua ranked sixth while Mexico got the 10th spot.

Among the criteria of the survey conducted by the NCC from January 31 to December 31, 2012 are infrastructure, economic dynamism and government efficiency, as well as performance in employment, business registration, finance, growth in sales of businesses, criminality, health and education.

Meanwhile, this city emerged as the only city in Luzon among the top five in the NCC’s 2013 Cities and Municipalities Competitiveness Index announced last July 30.

City Mayor Edwin “Edsa” Santiago said San Fernando’s competitiveness ranking shows the “effectiveness of the city government’s programs.”

“This would also encourage more investors to come in, which will spell the growth of the local business sector and the overall economy of San Fernando,” Santiago said.

He also attributed the city’s recent gains to the forward-looking initiatives pursued by former mayor and now Third District Rep. Oscar Rodriguez.

Last February, results of a survey conducted by the University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) Business Economics Club ranked San Fernando as 6th among the country’s top 20 cities which served as “drivers of economic growth” in 2012.

Formed in 2006, NCC is a government-private sector task force designed to help improve the country’s competitiveness to entice more investments into the economy.

NCC private-sector co-chairman Guillermo Luz, meantime, said the data compiled by the task force could help provide cities with a means of regularly measuring their performance, enabling them to “better manage themselves.”

Cortez: Vanity of Vanities

Wednesday, July 31, 2013

THIS Sunday’s gospel, recorded in Luke 12:13-21, speaks of the futility of “storing up treasures for ourselves but not being rich in things that matter to God.”

In the parable a rich man with a bountiful harvest decided to tear down his barns to build larger ones in which to store his grains and other goods. Feeling a sense of security in the years to come, he said to himself, “Eat, drink and be merry!” He said this not knowing that on that very night the Lord will take back his life, thereby rendering all his possessions useless.

This man’s story remains to be the story of many modern men. Blinded with the distorted concept of success as one measured almost entirely by material prosperity, many have become obsessed with the desire to produce more wealth, accumulate more money and own more property. Life has become equated with working unreasonably hard to save much, to invest much, and to acquire much. Materialism, luxuries and hedonic pleasures have been exalted as the present-day false gods, replacing the golden calf, the Baals and the Asherahs of ancient Israel.

The irony, however, is that these idols for which men exhaust all their energies and time are fleeting; they do not last. They are also deceptive; they do not radiate the joy and satisfaction they promise to deliver to the yearning human heart. In the words of Quoheleth in the book of Ecclesiastes, all of these things are but a “vanity of vanities.”

Of course, there is nothing inherently wrong with money. We all need it to meet our daily needs — our food, shelter, clothing, education, medicines, mobility, wholesome recreation and the like. Thus, fathers and mothers engaged in honest living to provide the best for their families do so in the most noble of intentions.

What is wrong, however, is when people start to fall in love with money itself. The Scriptures clearly say, “The love of money is the root of all evil” (1 Timothy 6:10). Our Lord Jesus himself said, “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and riches” (Matthew 6:24). St. Paul, on the other hand, in the 3rd chapter of his epistle to the Colossians, reminds us to put to death, among others, covetousness or greed, which is a form of idolatry.

Once again the gospel challenges us to reexamine our priorities. Do we hold the spiritual more importantly than the material? In our hearts, does the eternal take precedence over the temporal? While our bodies will someday return to dust from which they came (see Genesis 3:19), our spirits as believers are destined to return to God in heaven (see Ecclesiastes 12:7). And lest we forget, heaven is the most beautiful place whose joys are far greater than the all the happiness of this world.

Ocampo: Cash Management

Tuesday, July 30, 2013

CASH is the beginning and end of the Business Cycle. Assets of a business came from cash (excluding donated assets); and these assets are financial items waiting to be expensed to earn a revenue and profit. For example, cash is converted as a manufacturing machinery to increase production and sales volume and grow profits.

As such, cash, being one of the most valuable resources of business entities, including Local Government Units (LGUs), has to be managed and optimized for a cost- efficient and cost-effective business operation so that more revenues will be generated and more profits earned. This realm in business is called “Cash Management”.

The Cash Management Cycle begins with the receipt of cash which is then secured in the business vault until it is deposited in the bank and disbursed to fund the business’s operation or distributed as profits to business owners.

Cash is received from the following sources:

* Investments of stockholders

* Sale of the business’ products

* Services rendered

* Sale of fixed assets that are no longer used in operations

* Sale of inventories, other than finished goods inventory, that are no longer used in operations

* Interest and dividend income received from investing activities of the business

* Rental and other passive income

* Donations and grants

Cash coming from various sources is received by the business through its employees; while some are directly credited in the business’ bank accounts. Cash is received either from a customer, client, buyer, lessee or donor by the business’ collector or salesman that is then remitted to the business cashier for safekeeping until it is deposited in the bank. This process is part of the “Sales Settlement and Cash Deposit System”. Cash handling has a lot of risks involved. Hence, policies, procedures or processes have to be in place to ensure that cash is safeguarded and ultimately deposited in the bank.

In a Family set-up, cash is also the beginning and end of a Family’s Financial Cycle. Family assets come from cash with some assets coming from relatives and friends as gifts. Assets are financial items waiting to be expensed to earn a revenue and profit; but in a family set-up, cash is converted to assets mostly for the purpose of family enjoyment and personal use, and a small amount, if any, is used to grow the family coffer.

For example, cash is often used to buy the best TV brand, the latest mobile phone and other electronic gadgets that are usually for personal use and become outdated in a few years. The most significant use of the family cash is the purchase or construction of a family house especially in a high-end subdivision. A family house is not an investment as it does not earn; rather, it is a liability because it incurs expenses.

The sources of cash by families not engaged in a business usually come from the following:

Salary as a white-collar or blue-collar worker of a registered business

Income, salary, commission and/or service fee earned in an underground economy or sometimes called informal or unreported economy, such as fee or salary received by skilled and unskilled workers and sale of products or items by street vendors that are not reported to the BIR.

Cash handling risks are not significant as cash is directly received by the family. The evidence of cash earned is the Pay slip. A small amount of cash, if any, is left and deposited in the bank because the cash received is spent immediately for family needs (and wants). The problem in most Family’s Financial System especially those in the lower middle and lower class may be due to insufficient revenue and improper spending. The best practice of a business of optimizing the use of cash to grow revenues is worth adopting.
