THE Philippine National Police (PNP) is looking into the possible source of the P111.8 million worth of cocaine found floating in the waters of Arteche, Eastern Samar.In a press conference, PNP chief of the Public Information Office (PIO) Colonel Jean Fajardo said an investigation was launched to identify where the 20 bricks of cocaine, which were recovered by a fisherman on March 8, came from.“Tinitingnan natin based doon sa panayam before ng mga units na nag-imbestiga nito ay possibly mga drugs na ito may have come diyan sa area ng South American ang tinitingnan natin ang Pilipinas ay ginagamit pong trans-shipment points na hindi talaga intended for local distribution kasi maliit pa naman talaga ang market ng cocaine dito sa Pilipinas. Ang No. 1 pa rin talagang abused drugs dito sa atin ay shabu,” she said.(We are looking at it based on the interview before with the units that investigated it. It is possible that these drugs have come to the South American area. What we are looking at is that they are looking the Philippines as trans-shipment point but that is not really intended for local distribution because the cocaine market is still really small here in the Philippines. The No. 1 drug that is really abused here is shabu.)“But we are not 100 percent sure whether ‘yung mga narecover before, particularly ‘yung 2009 and 2010, is the same source of the recovered drugs ngayon,” she said.“Itong drugs smuggling, trafficking entail an elaborate funding from a drug syndicate, so possibility talaga na meron talagang foreign drug traffickers that infiltrated itong ating Philippine market,” she added.(This drugs smuggling, trafficking entail an elaborate funding from a drug syndicate, so there is possibility that there are actually foreign drug traffickers that infiltrated our Philippine market.)Following the recovery of the illegal contraband, Fajardo said the PNP, together with the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA), Philippine Coast Guard, and Philippine Navy, has intensified their seaborne operations to guard the country’s coastline against intrusions by international drug smugglers and poachers.She said they are also coordinating closely with their foreign counterparts for the interdiction of such illegal items.In 2019, several blocks of cocaine worth millions of pesos were found floating off Camarines Norte, Siargao and Dinagat Islands. Thirteen incidents where fishermen discover blocks of cocaine floating in the seas were recorded since 2018.Another brick of cocaine found; 3 groups suspectedThe PDEA then said that it is either that the Philippines is being used as a transshipment point, which means that the illegal contraband is intended for another country or these were part of a diversionary tactic by syndicates while they smuggled bigger hauls of narcotics into the country elsewhere. (TPM/SunStar Philippines) Philippine Sports Commission Philippines THE Supreme Court (SC) has found former anti-insurgency task force spokesperson Lorraine Badoy guilty of indirect contempt following the online attacks she launched against a Manila judge.In a decision penned by Senior Associate Justice Marvic Leonen, Badoy was ordered to pay a fine of P30,000 and was warned that a repetition of the same or similar acts in the future shall merit a more severe sanction.Badoy, through her Facebook page with over 166,000 followers, accused Regional Trial Court of Manila, Branch 19 Judge Marlo A. Magdoza-Malagar of being a member of the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army (NPA) after issuing a resolution dismissing the petition of the Department of Justice (DOJ) to proscribe the organization as a terrorist group under the Human Security Act.She also uploaded a post threatening to kill Magdoza-Malagar and to bomb his offices.Badoy also tagged him as “unprincipled and rotten.”Her posts were supported by her followers who even offered her their assistance.This has prompted a group of lawyers to file a petition against Badoy for indirect contempt.In the decision, the court noted the need to balance the exercise of free speech and the protection of judicial independence.“One’s right to freedom of expression must be as fully protected as possible; however, its exercise must never transgress the equally important aspects of democracy, not least of all the Judiciary’s dignity and authority,” held the Court.Direct contempt is committed when one engages in “misbehavior in the presence of or so near a court as to obstruct or interrupt the proceedings,” while indirect contempt involves actions that are committed not within the presence of the court, including improper conduct tending, directly or indirectly, to impede, obstruct, or degrade the administration of justice.The SC also noted that Badoy’s criticisms were not made in good faith or without malice. “She did not act with an honest sense of duty or with an interest in the pure and efficient administration of justice and public affairs. Instead, she was impelled by a self-seeking motive, which was to stir discontent among her audience, as evidenced by her use of violent and abrasive language in hurling accusations at Judge Magdoza-Malagar,” it said.“Second, Badoy’s comments were not a fair and true reporting of a proceeding. On the contrary, Badoy imputed serious allegations against Judge Magdoza-Malagar and the Judiciary without any factual basis, said the Court. Her posts and even the pleadings she filed before the Court do not indicate that she possesses evidence to support her scandalous statements,” it added.It said Badoy’s claims cast doubt on the legitimacy of Magdoza-Malagar’s decision, which resulted for the public to prejudge the case.It said it is nothing but an act of intimidation to influence the resolution of a pending case.The court also cautioned online personalities and influencers, underscoring that unregulated speech online and the spread of fake news pose real consequences in the real world.“To maintain their popularity, online personalities tend to publish a steady stream of shocking or attention-grabbing content to take advantage of their audience’s negativity bias, that is, the natural human tendency to latch on to something bad rather than good. In a bid to ensure that their posts would become viral, they would make statements that produce heightened negative emotions, chasing after the dopamine rush brought about by the substantial increase in their followers and likes. The result is a proliferation of posts made to further their personal gain and popularity, without regard for the public good,” said the court.“Online personalities thus have a duty to verify the truthfulness of the content they put out on the internet. It behooves them to validate the source of news through fact-checking and even through source-checking, lest they unwittingly disseminate fake news and even cause real-world harm,” it added.Badoy was earlier cited in contempt at the House of Representatives for acting in a disrespectful manner and for refusing to answer relevant questions during an inquiry against Sonshine Media Network International (SMNI) to which they served as program hosts.In one of their episodes, Badoy and her co-host Jeffrey Celiz took a swipe at House Speaker Martin Romualdez for spending P1.8 billion for his travels.The claim was denied by Romualdez.Celis later admitted that such information was unverified.

(TPM/SunStar Philippines) How often does DFA open slots for appointment? NEGRENSES and Siquijodnons will have easier access to national government services with the revival of the Negros Island Region (NIR), composed of the provinces of Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental, and this time, also Siquijor.Negros Oriental Gov. Manuel “Chaco” Sagarbarria told SunStar Cebu on Thursday, March 14, 2024, that regional offices of national government agencies will be located closer to residents, eliminating the need for travel to Cebu City for transactions. Cebu City serves as the regional center of Central Visayas, where Negros Oriental currently belongs and where most national agencies’ regional offices are located.“I see it as an advantage for our provinces. It is really different if the national agencies are just right around the corner,” Sagarbarria said in a mix of Cebuano and English. The Senate approved on Tuesday, March 12, the proposed Negros Island Region Act on third and final reading. Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri principally authored the bill, with co-authorship from Sen. Joseph Victor “JV” Ejercito. The House of Representatives passed a similar bill in March last year. Ejercito said he is “very positive” President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. will sign the bill into law before the end of 2024, despite the latter having some concerns about the budgetary requirement of creating a new region. Governor Sagarbarria, for his part, hopes the President will sign the NIR Act into law after he arrives from Europe. Marcos is visiting Germany and the Czech Republic from March 11 to 15. According to Ejercito, at least P30 million to P40 million is needed for the establishment of a regional office. The lawmaker said both Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental have agreed to donate land and buildings for the initial establishment of the regional offices which will be divided between the two provinces. Ejercito said the joint bicameral committee will tackle the two NIR bills to reconcile some portions of the bills, including the division of the regional offices.In the division of regional offices, the Senate bill states that Negros Occidental will host the agriculture and land related cluster, peace and order and security cluster, and governance cluster. Negros Oriental will house the human development cluster, infrastructure cluster, and industry and labor cluster. Sagarbarria assured that Negros Oriental will maintain its harmonious relationship with Cebu and Bohol, saying Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia is his aunt. In May 2015, the NIR was established through Executive Order 183 issued by then-President Benigno Aquino III. However, the NIR was composed only of Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental. Aquino’s successor, President Rodrigo Duterte, abolished it in 2017 through Executive Order 38, citing the need to sufficiently allocate funding for priority government programs and projects. / EHP, TDE / SUNSTAR BACOLOD

(TPM/SunStar Philippines) licensed online casinos NEGRENSES and Siquijodnons will have easier access to national government services with the revival of the Negros Island Region (NIR), composed of the provinces of Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental, and this time, also Siquijor.Negros Oriental Gov. Manuel “Chaco” Sagarbarria told SunStar Cebu on Thursday, March 14, 2024, that regional offices of national government agencies will be located closer to residents, eliminating the need for travel to Cebu City for transactions. Cebu City serves as the regional center of Central Visayas, where Negros Oriental currently belongs and where most national agencies’ regional offices are located.“I see it as an advantage for our provinces. It is really different if the national agencies are just right around the corner,” Sagarbarria said in a mix of Cebuano and English. The Senate approved on Tuesday, March 12, the proposed Negros Island Region Act on third and final reading. Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri principally authored the bill, with co-authorship from Sen. Joseph Victor “JV” Ejercito. The House of Representatives passed a similar bill in March last year. Ejercito said he is “very positive” President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. will sign the bill into law before the end of 2024, despite the latter having some concerns about the budgetary requirement of creating a new region. Governor Sagarbarria, for his part, hopes the President will sign the NIR Act into law after he arrives from Europe. Marcos is visiting Germany and the Czech Republic from March 11 to 15. According to Ejercito, at least P30 million to P40 million is needed for the establishment of a regional office. The lawmaker said both Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental have agreed to donate land and buildings for the initial establishment of the regional offices which will be divided between the two provinces. Ejercito said the joint bicameral committee will tackle the two NIR bills to reconcile some portions of the bills, including the division of the regional offices.In the division of regional offices, the Senate bill states that Negros Occidental will host the agriculture and land related cluster, peace and order and security cluster, and governance cluster. Negros Oriental will house the human development cluster, infrastructure cluster, and industry and labor cluster. Sagarbarria assured that Negros Oriental will maintain its harmonious relationship with Cebu and Bohol, saying Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia is his aunt. In May 2015, the NIR was established through Executive Order 183 issued by then-President Benigno Aquino III. However, the NIR was composed only of Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental. Aquino’s successor, President Rodrigo Duterte, abolished it in 2017 through Executive Order 38, citing the need to sufficiently allocate funding for priority government programs and projects. / EHP, TDE / SUNSTAR BACOLOD

Gambling in the Philippines 2023 – the Latest Trends

THE Supreme Court (SC) has found former anti-insurgency task force spokesperson Lorraine Badoy guilty of indirect contempt following the online attacks she launched against a Manila judge.In a decision penned by Senior Associate Justice Marvic Leonen, Badoy was ordered to pay a fine of P30,000 and was warned that a repetition of the same or similar acts in the future shall merit a more severe sanction.Badoy, through her Facebook page with over 166,000 followers, accused Regional Trial Court of Manila, Branch 19 Judge Marlo A. Magdoza-Malagar of being a member of the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army (NPA) after issuing a resolution dismissing the petition of the Department of Justice (DOJ) to proscribe the organization as a terrorist group under the Human Security Act.She also uploaded a post threatening to kill Magdoza-Malagar and to bomb his offices.Badoy also tagged him as “unprincipled and rotten.”Her posts were supported by her followers who even offered her their assistance.This has prompted a group of lawyers to file a petition against Badoy for indirect contempt.In the decision, the court noted the need to balance the exercise of free speech and the protection of judicial independence.“One’s right to freedom of expression must be as fully protected as possible; however, its exercise must never transgress the equally important aspects of democracy, not least of all the Judiciary’s dignity and authority,” held the Court.Direct contempt is committed when one engages in “misbehavior in the presence of or so near a court as to obstruct or interrupt the proceedings,” while indirect contempt involves actions that are committed not within the presence of the court, including improper conduct tending, directly or indirectly, to impede, obstruct, or degrade the administration of justice.The SC also noted that Badoy’s criticisms were not made in good faith or without malice. “She did not act with an honest sense of duty or with an interest in the pure and efficient administration of justice and public affairs. Instead, she was impelled by a self-seeking motive, which was to stir discontent among her audience, as evidenced by her use of violent and abrasive language in hurling accusations at Judge Magdoza-Malagar,” it said.“Second, Badoy’s comments were not a fair and true reporting of a proceeding. On the contrary, Badoy imputed serious allegations against Judge Magdoza-Malagar and the Judiciary without any factual basis, said the Court. Her posts and even the pleadings she filed before the Court do not indicate that she possesses evidence to support her scandalous statements,” it added.It said Badoy’s claims cast doubt on the legitimacy of Magdoza-Malagar’s decision, which resulted for the public to prejudge the case.It said it is nothing but an act of intimidation to influence the resolution of a pending case.The court also cautioned online personalities and influencers, underscoring that unregulated speech online and the spread of fake news pose real consequences in the real world.“To maintain their popularity, online personalities tend to publish a steady stream of shocking or attention-grabbing content to take advantage of their audience’s negativity bias, that is, the natural human tendency to latch on to something bad rather than good. In a bid to ensure that their posts would become viral, they would make statements that produce heightened negative emotions, chasing after the dopamine rush brought about by the substantial increase in their followers and likes. The result is a proliferation of posts made to further their personal gain and popularity, without regard for the public good,” said the court.“Online personalities thus have a duty to verify the truthfulness of the content they put out on the internet. It behooves them to validate the source of news through fact-checking and even through source-checking, lest they unwittingly disseminate fake news and even cause real-world harm,” it added.Badoy was earlier cited in contempt at the House of Representatives for acting in a disrespectful manner and for refusing to answer relevant questions during an inquiry against Sonshine Media Network International (SMNI) to which they served as program hosts.In one of their episodes, Badoy and her co-host Jeffrey Celiz took a swipe at House Speaker Martin Romualdez for spending P1.8 billion for his travels.The claim was denied by Romualdez.Celis later admitted that such information was unverified.
