THE Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) will maintain the status quo with regard to its board of directors (BOD).In a letter addressed to Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) Administrator Jose Moises Salonga dated Monday, March 18, 2024, MCWD general manager Edgar Donoso said they had asked for an opinion from the Office of the Government Corporate Counsel (OGCC) on Salonga’s appointment last Friday of an interim board to take over the policy-making body of the MCWD for the next six months.Pending the OGCC’s response, Donoso said they would recognize the board led by chairman Jose Daluz III to ensure a “continuous and unhampered delivery of public service.”“In view of this, and for the time being, we therefore cannot yet acknowledge LWUA’s authority on this intervention/takeover and appointment of an interim board of directors,” Donoso’s letter to Salonga read.Signing the letter to show their “conformity” were the presidents of the Association of MCWD Managers, Christine Caballes; MCWD Supervisors Association, Joseph Caballes; MCWD Employees Union, Samuel Suson; and Non-Regular Manpower Resources Association, Daniel Lim.Last Friday, however, Daluz said he would abide by LWUA’s takeover order.In a statement released on Monday, Donoso also assured all consumers and stakeholders that despite the circumstances, MCWD operations would continue as usual. “There will be no disruptions in the delivery of water services to our community. We are fully committed to prioritizing the needs of our consumers, and our efforts to mitigate the impacts of the El Niño phenomenon will persist,” he said.SurprisedMeanwhile, Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama said he was surprised by LWUA’s latest action and insisted on his own appointees remaining in their positions.“Their (LWUA) coming in, that’s not the way I want it. I’ll have a meeting with my MCWD on Saturday evening, and they’ll know what they ought to do. So I wish when I come back things are already (coming) and there is no such thing as supremacy,” Rama said on Monday.The mayor refused to comment on whether LWUA’s intervention would affect his appointed board.Rama reiterated that he has the authority to appoint the members of the MCWD board.“My MCWD appointment should stay,” he said.Last Oct. 31, Mayor Rama appointed Melquiades Feliciano, Aristotle Batuhan and Nelson Yuvallos to replace Daluz, Miguelito Pato and Jodelyn May Seno.Existing board members Danilo Ortiz and Earl Bonachita supported Rama’s appointment of the three new members.The mayor said City Hall was tired of waiting for LWUA to act on their request to issue a “certificate of no objection” to the termination of Daluz, Pato and Seno’s services last August.TakeoverLWUA implemented the takeover of the MCWD board last March 15, for a period of six months. In a letter addressed to Daluz and Donoso, Salonga announced the partial intervention of LWUA, which he said was authorized by Resolution 35, s. 2023 duly approved by the LWUA Board of Trustees in accordance with Presidential Decree 198, as amended. In line with this, Salonga announced the installation of LWUA officers Maria Rosan Perez, Noel Samonte and Anabelle Gravador to the interim board of MCWD, with LWUA deputy administrator Eileen dela Vega overseeing Friday’s installation.In a phone interview last Friday, Daluz confirmed the implementation of the takeover, saying the five board members—Daluz, Pato and Seno appointed by the late mayor Edgardo Labella, and Rama’s two appointees Ortiz and Bonachita would abide by LWUA’s decision.“We will abide by the order of the LWUA. I think that is for the best interest of the MCWD,” Daluz said.Daluz said the intervention also applied to Rama’s appointed board. / AML Top 5 Casino in the Philippines Philippines MORE than a hundred officials of the National Food Authority (NFA) were preventively suspended, on the orders of the Office of the Ombudsman, over their alleged involvement in the controversial sale of rice buffer stocks.In a statement on Monday, March 4, 2024, Department of Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr. said they will be implementing the order of the Ombudsman, effective March 4, against the 139 officials, including NFA administrator Roderico Bioco, assistant administrator for operations John Robert Hermano, and several regional managers and warehouse supervisors from across the country.“Kinokondena at hindi palalampasin ang anumang uri ng korapsyon.

The palay grains were bought at P23 per kilogram.Meanwhile, Senator Imee Marcos filed on Monday, March 4, 2024, Senate Resolution 940 seeking the conduct of an inquiry into the "highly suspicious" P93.75-million sale of 75,000 bags of rice stock to two traders.She expressed alarm considering the prevailing El Niño phenomenon, which badly affects the country’s rice stock.On February 12, NFA Assistant Administrator for Operations Lemuel Pagayuman sent a letter of complaint to the Office of the President revealing the illegal sale of "treated and fit for consumption" rice stocks by Bioco to two rice traders.Bioco in several memorandum claimed that the rice stocks are already deteriorating or aging, hence, allowing its sale.Hermano on November 13, 2023 issued a memorandum ordering to rebag the rice stocks in containers without NFA markings.Pagayuman said the buyers were pre-selected as no other bidders or buyers were allowed to take part in the bidding to buy the NFA stocks.In calling for an investigation, Marcos emphasized that a thorough review of the NFA's mandate was crucial to deal with a global rice shortage.Marcos noted that her late father, former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr., established the NFA in 1972 to buy palay from local farmers, stabilize rice prices for the Filipino consumer, and ensure a sufficient buffer stock for calamities.“However, the agency has repeatedly fallen short of its required buffer stock and been unable to cope with higher farmgate prices of palay, which rose to as high as 27 pesos per kilo last year. Although palay's farmgate price has dipped to P23, the NFA had earlier pegged its capacity to subsidize local farmers at only 17 to 19 pesos per kilo,” the senator said.“The NFA has been unable to support all local farmers desperate for aid, especially when rice smuggling forced them to sell their harvests below the cost of production,” she added.

MORE than a hundred officials of the National Food Authority (NFA) were preventively suspended, on the orders of the Office of the Ombudsman, over their alleged involvement in the controversial sale of rice buffer stocks.In a statement on Monday, March 4, 2024, Department of Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr. said they will be implementing the order of the Ombudsman, effective March 4, against the 139 officials, including NFA administrator Roderico Bioco, assistant administrator for operations John Robert Hermano, and several regional managers and warehouse supervisors from across the country.“Kinokondena at hindi palalampasin ang anumang uri ng korapsyon. Kaisa ako ng Ombudsman sa layunin nating alamin ang katotohanan at parusahan ang dapat maparusahan,” Laurel said.(Corruption of any kind is condemned and will not be tolerated. I am with the Ombudsman in our goal to find out the truth and punish those who deserve to be punished.)“I have been in contact with the Office of the Ombudsman ever since this controversy erupted. I also created a special panel of internal investigators to determine culpability and see how we can prevent it from happening again in the future,” he added.Laurel said he will temporarily take over the helm of the NFA to avoid any delays in the services and projects of the agency.Bioco earlier filed a leave of absence to pave the way for the investigation on the matter, which is “greatly disadvantageous to the government.”The investigation covers the sale of milled rice stored in NFA’s warehouse for P25 a kilogram without bidding. The palay grains were bought at P23 per kilogram.Meanwhile, Senator Imee Marcos filed on Monday, March 4, 2024, Senate Resolution 940 seeking the conduct of an inquiry into the "highly suspicious" P93.75-million sale of 75,000 bags of rice stock to two traders.She expressed alarm considering the prevailing El Niño phenomenon, which badly affects the country’s rice stock.On February 12, NFA Assistant Administrator for Operations Lemuel Pagayuman sent a letter of complaint to the Office of the President revealing the illegal sale of "treated and fit for consumption" rice stocks by Bioco to two rice traders.Bioco in several memorandum claimed that the rice stocks are already deteriorating or aging, hence, allowing its sale.Hermano on November 13, 2023 issued a memorandum ordering to rebag the rice stocks in containers without NFA markings.Pagayuman said the buyers were pre-selected as no other bidders or buyers were allowed to take part in the bidding to buy the NFA stocks.In calling for an investigation, Marcos emphasized that a thorough review of the NFA's mandate was crucial to deal with a global rice shortage.Marcos noted that her late father, former President Ferdinand Marcos Sr., established the NFA in 1972 to buy palay from local farmers, stabilize rice prices for the Filipino consumer, and ensure a sufficient buffer stock for calamities.“However, the agency has repeatedly fallen short of its required buffer stock and been unable to cope with higher farmgate prices of palay, which rose to as high as 27 pesos per kilo last year. Although palay's farmgate price has dipped to P23, the NFA had earlier pegged its capacity to subsidize local farmers at only 17 to 19 pesos per kilo,” the senator said.“The NFA has been unable to support all local farmers desperate for aid, especially when rice smuggling forced them to sell their harvests below the cost of production,” she added.
