500 Valenzuelanos nakatanggap ng tulong medical mula sa DSWD

Posted on: August 26th, 2022 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

UMABOT sa 500 kwalipikadong Valenzuelano ang nakatanggap ng kanilang pinakahihintay na tulong medikal mula sa Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) at REX Serbisyo Center sa Valenzuela City Amphitheater.

Ang tulong medikal ay naging posible sa pamamagitan ng DSWD program Assistance to Individuals in Crisis Situation (AICS). Isang tulong para sa mga indibidwal o pamilya na nakakaranas ng matinding dagok sa buhay o krisis na pinalala ng pandemya ng COVID-19.

Ang suportang ibinibigay ng AICS ay isang tugon sa kanilang mga pangangailangan tulad ng medikal, libing, transportasyon, edukasyon, pagkain, o cash assistance para sa iba pang support services.

Ang 500 Valenzuelano na ito ay may nakabinbin at naghihintay na mga kahilingan upang matulungan sa kanilang mga gastusin sa pribadong ospital, maintenance medicines, at mga pamamaraang medikal tulad ng dialysis at laboratoryo. Gayunpaman, tinatasa ng mga manggagawa ng DSWD ang mga benepisyaryo batay sa pamantayan kung magkano ang tulong na kanilang ibibigay.

“Ang request ko sa mga nakatanggap ng medical assistance ngayon ay ipamalita ninyo sa mga kakilala ninyo, dahil marami pa ang hindi nakakaalam, na kahit private yung hospitals, basta kumpleto naman ang papeles o requirements ay pwede naman pumunta sa REX Serbisyo Center. Hindi man ito ora mismo dahil inaayos pa ng DSWD ang pondo, pero nakakarating at nakakarating naman.” Pahayag ni Cong. REX Gatchalian.

Ang REX Serbisyo Center at DSWD ay magtatakda ng isa pang batch ng mga benepisyaryo ng Valenzuelano na tatanggap ng tulong medikal sa ilalim ng programang AICS sa mga susunod na araw. (Richard Mesa)

HINDI raw inaasahan ni Direk Carlitos Siguion Reyna na mapapasabak siya sa action scenes sa teleserye na ‘Apoy Sa Langit’.

Hindi raw naging madali ang bugbugan na eksena nila ni Zoren Legaspi sa isang episode kaya nanibago si Direk Carlos dahil sanay siyang idirek ito at hindi siya ang umaarte.

“Nanibago ako, pero I enjoyed it and it also actually helped the internal action, the expression. One thing I learned in those action scenes, I’ve done physical before but on this scale, may sakalan.

“Sinasakal si Zoren, tapos sinusuntok, pinapatay ‘yung sa isang flashback ‘yung isa naming kasabwat sa robbery. What helped me is forget the physicality and just maintain the intention, the emotion, the internal action, and that’s how we pull it all together.”

Para kay Direk Carlos, importanteng raw na makinig ng mabuti sa stunt instructor para walang nangyayaring aksidente.

“I really am very grateful also doon sa support and ‘yung the way out stunt instructor si Monching Baldomaro, was really helpful in telling me how to do things kasi yung mga physical na ‘yun… you also have to know how to do it properly para it’s safe for you and for everybody else.

“There’s more na kailangan nilang abangan sa last two weeks of ‘Apoy Sa Langit’. It will get darker and more intense. Kaya nga hiling ko sa GMA na bigyan naman nila ako ng box set ng series na ito para may souvenir ako,” tawa pa ni Direk Carlos.

NA-DIAGNOSE with Alzheimer’s disease at PCA (Posterior Cortical Atrophy) ang legendary singer na si Maureen McGovern.

Nakilala ang 73-year old singer dahil sa sumikat nitong mga songs na “The Morning After” at “We May Never Love Like This Again” noong dekada ’70.

Sa kanyang Facebook, pinaalam ng singer ang naging diagnosis niya PCA at ang symptoms niya ng Alzheimer’s disease.

Ang PCA ay degenerative neurological syndrome na nakakaapekto sa eyesight at pag-process ng visual information.

“What I do, or what I am still able to accomplish, has changed. I can no longer travel or perform in live concerts. In fact, I can no longer drive — how’s that for a kick in the butt? Of course, it’s a challenge, but it certainly is not going to keep me from living my life. At first, I began having trouble finding, in my brain, the words I wanted to say. I struggled with the inevitable shock with fear and frankly hopelessness.

“But slowly I realized that my inner life has not changed. My passion for music, for singing, remains profoundly robust. To me, music is a language that expresses what often cannot be said with just words – it elevates, expands, and heals – brings joy and comfort and can eliminate barriers by creating meaningful experiences. So, accepting this new stage in my life, I began to embrace what I have and let it be.”

Kahit na may sakit, patuloy pa rin daw aawit at gagawa ng songs si McGovern para sa mga bata to raise awareness for music therapy.

Ang inawit ni McGovern na theme song ng 1972 film na ‘The Poseidon Adventure’ na “The Morning After” ay nanalo ng Best Original Song sa Academy Awards.

Nanalo rin na Best Original Song sa Oscar Awards ang inawit niyang “We May Never Love Like This Again” na theme song naman ng 1974 film na ‘The Towering Inferno’.

Fernando mandates temporary suspension of mining activities, demands DPWH, LTO, PNP, HPG to help crackdown overloading

Posted on: August 26th, 2022 by @peoplesbalita No Comments

CITY OF MALOLOS – To address the ongoing issue on dilapidated roads and over-mining in the province, Bulacan Governnor Daniel R. Fernando issued Executive Order No. 21 which mandated the temporary suspension of all mining permits, quarrying, dredging, desilting and other type of mineral extractive operations within Bulacan.

During the dialogue with the mining stakeholders and other affected sectors spearheaded by the Bulacan Environmental and Natural Resources Office (BENRO) at The Red Arc Events Place in Brgy. Wawa, Balagtas, Bulacan yesterday, Fernando discussed that he initiated the issuance of the Executive Order following the constant deterioration of roads caused by overloading of transport vehicles whether its volume is land minerals or other commodities.

Representatives from concerned agencies were also present during the dialogue for further planning, strict implementation and to support the Executive Order including the Bulacan Police Provincial Office headed by PCol. Charlie A. Cabradilla; Department of Public Works and Highways represented by Engr. Henry C. Alcantara, Bulacan 1st District Engineer; Provincial Mining Regulatory Board represented by Engr. Reynaldo Cruz from the Mines and Geosciences Bureau-Region 3 and the Land Transportation Office represented by Carina Macapagal, Chief of LTO Malolos District Office.

He said that the Department of Public Works and Highways, Land Transportation Office, Philippine National Police and Highway Patrol Group should act now and help address the long overdue problems on overloading and dilapidated roads.

“Nasisira na po ang mga kalsada natin, ang mga bridges. I want your cooperation in this matter. I need your help, nakikiusap po ako sa inyo. Ang kamay ko ay inaabot ko sa inyo alang-alang sa ating bayan. Sayang ang pera ng gobyerno sa taun-taong pagpapagawa kung paulit-ulit lang rin na masisira ang mga kalsada natin lalo na kung ang ilan sa ating kapwa na nasa mining sector ay hindi sumusunod sa itinalagang policy,” the governor said.

Fernando further explained that the implementation of the Executive Order will also give way to the pending evaluation of the Provincial Government to determine and come up with an updated matrix and policies for the mining stakeholders and trucking companies.

The governor said that these efforts also aim to support the administration of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. as he steers the country toward further progress and development.

Meanwhile, BENRO Head Atty. Julius Victor Degala clarified that the province is currently enforcing the “no excessive volume policy” provided under the Provincial Ordinance C-005 or the Environmental Code of the Province of Bulacan which sets the limit of the volume per truck.

With the governor’s mandate, Degala will also implement strict surveillance at checkpoints and will set a certain means of verification in accordance to the policy.

“Isa po sa nakikita kong problema ay ang mga checkpoints. Sa mga nagsasabi diyan na kayo ay untouchable sa checkpoint, gagalawin ko kayo ngayon. Tapos na po ang sistemang bulok. The governor has given me orders and I will obey him. Sa lahat po ng mga nasa checkpoint na ito, ililipat ko po sila at papalitan ko po ang mga tao,” Degala said.

In relation to this, Fernando also strictly emphasized his will to terminate illegal mining activities and over-mining in the province.

“Layunin po ng mandatong ito na tuldukan na nag mga kaso ng iligal o labis na pagmimina ng lupa at pagpuputol ng mga puno sa ating lalawigan. Kailangan po nating kontrolin at mahigpit na bantayan ang pagmimina at mga kaugnay na gawain gaya ng dredging, desilting, at land development upang maisalba natin an gating kalikasan at kapaligiran,” the governor said.

Meanwhile, E.O. No. 21 shall become effective in accordance with the provisions of the Local Government Code and will be lifted once the goal is achieved.

Those who will be found violating the Executive Order shall pay a fine of P5,000 per violation; be imprisoned for not less than six months but not exceeding a year and have their permits revoked. (BISHOP JESUS “JEMBA” M. BASCO)

Kabilang ang HB 375 sa HBs 2111 at 3244 sa pinagsama-samang substitute bill para sa panukalang Package 4 ng TRAIN Law.

Nagkasundo rin ang komite na isama sa panukala ang proposal ng Department of Finance (DOF) at Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) na alisin ang excise tax exemption sa pick-up trucks na isinulong sa ilalim ng TRAIN.

Nakasaad ito sa liham na ipinadala ni Finance Secretary Benjamin Diokno, kung saan nakasaad din na magreresulta ito ng tinatayang dagdag kita na P52.6 billion mula 2022 hanggang 2026.

Gayundin, inaprubahan din ng komite ang unnumbered substitute bill sa HBs 373, 2014, 2246, at 3888 o panukalang “Philippine Mining Fiscal Regime Act.”
