TAGBILARAN CITY, December 15 (PIA)– Bukas ang tanang mga bangko sa Pilipinas, pribado man o gipanag-iya sa gobyerno aron modawat sa mga magpabaylo sa ilang daang salaping papel hangtud Disyembre 2016.

Bisan niadto pang Enero 1, 2016 gipahunong sa BSP ang paggamit sa mga daang salaping papel isip pangbayad ug pang-sukli, mahimo pa kining ipabaylo sa mga bangko alang sa mga New Generation Currency (NGC) banknotes taman karong kataposan sa Disyembre. Ang gitumbok nga mga daang salaping papel mao kadtong mga gi-imprenta sa BSP niadtong tuig 1985. Tuig 2010 sa dihang gipagawas sa BSP sa sirkulasyon ang NGC nga paghidangat sa Enero 1, 2017, kini na lamang ang mahimong gamiton sa mga transaksiyon sa bangko ilabi na sa pagbayad ug pagpanukli. Matud pa ni Cultura nga mahimong magpabaylo sa bisan asang bangko bisan walay ‘existing account’ tungod kay obligado man ang tanang mga bangko nga alisdan og NGC banknotes ang bisan kinsang adunay gigonitan nga daang salaping papel nga gustong magpabaylo. Gipasabot ni Cultura nga kun dugay na kaayo ang salaping papel, matun-an na ug masundog ang detalye niini mao nga kinahanglan na... read moreMga angay bantayang ‘security features’ sa mga bag-ong salaping papel

BMT cluster seeks gov’t dialog on issues beyond their control
STAKEHOLDERS sharing the resources Bohol Marine Triangle (BMT) resources now want to dialog with concerned agencies over issues and concerns that the three towns could not cooperatively address. In fact, residents living in the cluster towns of Panglao, Dauis and Baclayon sharing the waters bounded by these islands have joined hands to address issues that would ascertain resource sustainability, as the recent consolidation workshop on the Local Regional Economic Development (LRED) for the three towns show. Some issues however, like zoning, municipal water boundaries, environment code implementation and other related concerns are beyond the cluster level, admit sources during their recent cluster workshop here. This too came as stakeholders engage in separate intensive private sector enterprise development delving on social capitalization for the BMT cluster towns to spur up local progress, admits Dr. Volker Steigerwald, program manager for the Private Sector Promotion, Small and Medium Enterprise Development for Sustainable Employment Program fo the German Development Corporation (GTZ). During the BMT Cluster LRED Consolidation Workshop, which opened at the Metrocenter May 26, 2009, Dr. Steigerwald also insisted the government should stick to its role as facilitator of development and regulator of all policies to equalize development and environment. Towns sharing the triangle of sea each have crafted their own LRED plans which have involved massive community mobilizations to sustain the marine triangle threatened by tourism and commercial fishing over-use while enjoying the resource. BMT, Bohol’s main tourist hub boasting of the best beaches, wealthy marine biodiversity, world class dive sites is also the home of communities strongly reliant on the resource while fast becoming a shared resource by investors whose...64% Boholanos see better future
TIMES may be hard but it could never let a Boholano down, the recent Holy Name University (HNU) survey shows. With 64% of Boholanos optimistic of a hope for Bohol, the recent survey, now becoming popularly known as the Bohol Polls would also attest to the fact that life has changed for the better in Bohol. The figure is also an increase from -59 to -52 of last year. Unemployment rate here dropped down 5 points or 12% from last year with 17%, the number also inclusive of those who are persistently seeking jobs especially at 18-24 age groups where unemployment rate is highest at 25%, says the poll. Presence of insurgents has not been as prevalent, 89 of Boholanos agree that they have not seen any armed men recently, only about 10% saying they have felt the presence of armed men again. The Provincial Government earned the highest net performance rating in tourism promotion at +39, protecting the environment at +36 and ensuring adequate food supply by providing support to agriculture promotion at +20 points. The optimism came despite a dampening 100% increase in poverty income threshold at P10,000 from last year’s P5,000. In fact, during the survey public presentation at the HNU High School Department Multi-Media Center Monday, economic issue presentor Christian Anuta bared that only 17% of Boholanos say their present quality of life is getting better compared to last year, while 55% say otherwise. The scenario may be bleak but with 85% Boholanos owning their own houses and another 11% living with relatives and employers, majority of them would be unofficially homeless, the polls would...“Home of best weavers” highlight claim with longest hand-wovens
IN an attempt to catch world attention and peg its claim as the home of the best buri fiber weavers in the world, Inabanga embarks on an ambitious project, to unroll 1.6 kilometers of continuously hand-woven raffia to highlight their bid. The mile-long raffia would be woven on traditional handloom and would be publicly displayed on June 29, when the organizers hope they could chart a world record for the town. With their quest for the world’s longest continuous hand woven raffia title, Mayor Jose Jono Jumamoy also hoped they could pull world attention to the town’s weaving industry that has given their craft-makers a prime fiber for modern household decoration. By that, Mayor Jumamoy believes they could mainstream the buri fiber weaving industry, which has remained in the town’s economic backrooms for quite sometime into a remarkable prime economic banner. The youthful mayor also revealed that by pitching for the world record, they could also expose the Inabangnon creativity and craftsmanship. For more that a century, raffia loom-weaving in Inabanga has stayed as a small industry until the local government, with partners looked seriously at developing the industry into a reliable alternative livelihood, admits Trade Regional Director Asteria Caberte, during the raffia gallery launching. With the Departments of Trade and Industry. Science and Technology and Technical Education Skills Development Authority, Inabanga has successfully transformed their lowly hinabol into an interesting product which has slowly defined the taste of modern lifestyle. Raffia has become the common material for placemats, table runners, custom handbags, fancy dresses and a perfect raw for hand-crafted novelty items. After training their weavers by applying...Amid climate change disasters: ANR – right response to forest restoration
OVER threats of irreversible global warming now manifested in a series of manmade disasters, world foresters in a regional gathering in Bohol insist on a better way to re-generate forests at a low cost. Despite President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo’s impressing on pro-environment programs and actively spearheading projects that could mitigate the effects of climate change, people have seen the monumental trouble of re-growing forests and are shunning away from the costs. During the Regional Workshop for Effective Low-Cost Forest Restoration at the Bohol Plaza, Kazuyuki Tsurumi maintained FAO stand on the method called Assisted Natural Re-generation (ANR). ANR is a forest restoration and rehabilitation practice for converting grass-dominated areas into productive forests. It is a simple, inexpensive and effectively relies on the natural processes of forest succession and promotes the regeneration of indigenous species adapted to the local environment. In addition, it provides multiple benefits for local people, who play significant roles in ANR application, bared the project brief provided by the government environment agency. “The underlying principle of ANR involves man nurturing nature. Man tends the existing rootstocks and young tree seedlings beneath the grasses by protecting them from fire and giving them the same care applied to planted trees, such as ring weeding, mulching and brushing, explains Paulino Manalo, project media consultant. “It is so logical because if man has caused the destruction, it would just be natural for him to assist in restoring the degraded areas into forests,” Tsurumi said. Tsurumi, world Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) representative in the Philippines press that ANR is not only practical but also allows endemic root stocks to grow...Bohol groups ask CARP extension
FARMER groups here unit to make a strong pressure group lobbying for the immediate legislative action on the extension of the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) which, if not acted upon expires at the end of this month. With barely a month left before the Congress adjourns in June, the farmers here think the country’s legislators have conveniently sat on the issue despite the apparent attempts by farmers ranks across the country to dramatize their intent to have the program deliberated as expeditiously. In late developments, reports bared that Malacanang has gained support from key Congressional leaders on the prioritizaion of the CARP law extension, which President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo has certified as urgent. The support accordingly came from Senate Agrarian Refrm Committee Chair Gringo Honasan and House of Representatives speaker Prospero Nograles, in a meeting with the President, attnded by key church authorities and reform secretary Nasser Pangandaman, according to reports. Assuring Boholanos however, Provincial Agrarian Reform Officer Johnson Cinco said that Bohol representatives have been candidly lining up behind the farmers in their unconditional support for the extension of the govenments primier social justice program. At the Kapihan sa PIA Thursday aired live over DyTR, PARO Cinco, who is also a lawyer said farmr cooperatives have passed resolutions to pressure Congress to prioritize the passing of the CARP extension biill. If the bill is passed, it would lengthen the term of the country’s land reform program by another five years and consequently approriatesi funds for the land acquisition program which the government sees as a move to motivate farmer productivity by allowing them to finally own the...National News
