HAGIT alang sa dugang pag-ugmad sa pasilidad alang sa turismo ang usa sa mga sagubangon sa
mga Bol-anon alang sa 2011.
Hinuon, kini nga panginahanglan aron mas masinati pa sa lalawigan ug sa katawhan niini ang
maayong benepisyo sa industriya nga nagsulbong.
Matud sa negosyanteng si Fortunato Lim, tag-iyag tagdumala sa Fortune Agrivet ug representante
sa Bohol Chamber of Commerce and Industry, kung mas mapamaayo nato ang pasilidad sa turismo,
mas bulahan pa ang mga Bol-anon sa bag-ong tuig.

pangadoy sa mga Bol-anon sa tuig 2011. (racPIABohol)

NAKITA sa mga tinugyanan ang posibilidad sa pagtukod ug mga marine parks nga usa sa mga solbad
sa paghimong “stable” sa tinubdan sa isda dinhi.
Kini maoy butyag ni Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) Chief Cresencio Pahamutang,
kinsa nahinabi sa usa ka forum kabahin sa siluran sa mahal nag isda dinhi.
Matud ni Pahamutang nga ang pagmenos sa kuha sa isda dinhi ug dinuyugan sa pagmenos sa
commercial nga mangingisda nakatabang nga maglisud ang pagpabarato sa presyo.
Hinuon, matud niya, sa konsepto sa marine park, tukoron ang 5 ka dagkong lugar diin butangan og
mga hatchery o laboratoryo aron mas dali ang pagpasanay sa semilya sa mga nag-unang matang sa
isda sa merkado.
Dugang niya nga tukoron sa Bohol uban sa Department of Agriculture og sa kagamhanang probinsyal
ang lima ka susamang parks sulod sa unang kwarter sa tuig.
Gibanabana nga kon matukod, dili na lisud ang pagpamalit sa isda kay diha ra kini buhi-on sa
mga fish cages sulod sa marine parks ug dili na unya maapektohan sa swerte o malas sa mga
mangingisdang mopalawod. (racPIABohol)

CATIGBIAN Bohol. SPORTS and youth development has gone professional in this town, which has earlier
vowed a no-nonsense program after a humiliating sports performance few years back.
How can we produce the best athletes if we only give them a week of rigid athletic training, Mayor Roberto
Salinas blurted out upon seeing the futility of a haphazard training regimen for their athletes competing in
sports competitions.
On this, the retired navy captain mayor egged his council to back up a sports training program that would
generate the best athletes who shall bring the town’s name in sports competitions.
Recently, aside from bringing home the bacon in sports competitions they participated in, local athletes also
received cash incentives from the local government
Winning athletes who represented the town in this year’s different levels of sports competitions earned cash
awards during the monthly convocation held December 20.
According to Maria Nila Tapales, town information officer, the awarding came after Mayor Roberto Salinas
convinced the local legislators to put up a sports incentive fund through an ordinance.
After that, Catigbian
with another supplemental ordinance of P14,000 to account for the better medal harvest for the year, Tapales
continued.
The P54,00 appropriations this year is different from the appropriations as honoraria for coaches, trainors and
training instructors, appropriation for sports equipment acquisition and financial support to the competing
delegation, she added.
Athletes who competed and reaped awards during the Congressional meet for public schools, BACS meet for
catholic secondary schools, the provincial meet and the Central Visayas Regional Athletic Association (CVRAA
in Dumaguete) each received at least a hundred to a thousand pesos.
After the incentive program was institutionalized, we noticed a flurry of excitement among local athletes who
appear to be more determined to bring out their best and excel in their fields.
Tapales cited that the sports training regimen has also made it possible for Catigbian to send about 21 athletes
to the regional athletic competition.
While the delegation could probably be the biggest among towns here, Catigbian officials were sure that the
harvest of about 7 medals could eloquently tell the success stories.
Catigbianons came home bringing various medals in arnis, sepak takraw, badminton doubles, single lawn
tennis for high schools, javelin throw and swimming. (racPIABohol)

THE Commission on Human Rights in Bohol now records a significant decrease in human rights cases
compared to about a decade ago.
In fact, had not the commission expanded its services to include a legal advice and inter-agency referral
system that was not institutionalized in its past functions, the cases this year may have been much lower,
admits Bohol CHR Rito Montes.
Montes showed statistics as he bared these developments during the recent Kapihan sa PIA aired live over
DyTR.
Set up to commemorate the national Human Rights Week Celebration and adopting the theme Karapatang
Pantao: Kilalanin, Tuparin at Pagyamanin, the forum on air with the CHR was aimed to update Boholanos of
the human rights situation in Bohol.
In 1999, CHR Bohol noted 57 cases of human rights violations.
This was even lower compared to 2002 when at the height of Bohol’s struggles facing insurgency and holding
it by the horns where some 88 cases were recorded.
In 2008 and 2009 however, the CHR said it noted only 24 cases on both years.
It added that their 30 cases form January to November of this year, may be understood because of the newly
opened legal assistance and inter-agency referral system that was recently institutionalized and incorporated in
the CHR mandate, Montes explained.
In its comparative data provided, CHR bared that that in 2010, while recorded cases of violations went to 30, 7
of these are actually legal advice and assistance cases, a new service by the CHR.
Bohol CHR officially submitted only 24 cases for docketing at the regional office this year, Montes bared.
Even then, CHR regional Director Atty. Alejandro Alonso admitted that there are still some areas where the
government has not fully addressed.
Alonso was quick to follow it up by citing the need to address the full implementation of the law against extra
legal killings and enforced disappearances, which have been reported until the present.
Moreover Atty. Alonzo said human rights education continues to be the agency’s top priority in its efforts to be
proactive in its human rights advocacy and violations monitoring mandates.
He also urged everybody’s help in helping to realize their agency mandate to actualize an empowered society.

UBAN sa mga tinugyanan sa Department of Energy, makig-sulti usab ang mga sakop sa prensa sa
Bohol sa mga benepisaryo sa Rural Electrification Project nga gipundohan sa Japan International
Cooperation Agency (JICA) sa isla nga barangay sa Alumar sa Getafe.
Lokal ug international nga sakop sa media ang ikauban usab sa mga tinugyanan sa JICA ug mga
langyawng magtutuon ang mogikan sa Tagbilaran paingon sa Getafe sa Miyerkoles sa buntag sayo
aron ikabagat ang mga tawong nakatagamtam sa kamaayo sa proyekto.
Ang proyekto sa DOE gipundohan usab sa JICA sanglit ang pagpakutay sa elektrisidad lisud nga
buhaton kon kini magagikan sa mainland.
Ang Rural electrification project sa Alumar nahimong possible pinaagi sa teknolohiyang gahum solar.
Samtang dako-dako na ang porsyento nga nakab-ot sa pagpakutay og koryente sa Bohol, may mga
layo nga isla pa dinhi nga padayon pang nangandoy nga mapakutayan sa serbisyo sa elektrisidad.
