Government mulls hosting all government websites

A proposal to have government host all government websites is being studied by Malacañang in order to prevent hackers from gaining control and defacing these portals in the future, Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said on Monday. In a briefing, Lacierda said that by “migrating” or moving all government websites to the government host will ensure their safety from hackers as the government domain, which is managed by the Department of Science and Technology, is less prone to hacking. “Those (websites) that are hosted by DOST are secure; for instance (the) PCDSPO (Presidential Communications Development and Strategic Planning Office) and the OG (Official Gazette), they are hosted by the government and as much as the hackers have attempted to attack the OG (website), it has never been defaced,” Lacierda said. “Some government websites are hosted by private entities and there has been a suggestion to move or migrate their hosting to government so that’s being studied right now,” he added. Six government websites (http://pro8.pnp.gov.ph/, http://mambulao.gov.ph/, http://www.cpa.gov.ph/, http://mmda.gov.ph/, http://nfa.gov.ph/, http://www.nmp.gov.ph/) were recently broken into by hackers to press their sentiments against the Anti-Cyber Crime Act of 2012 which President Benigno S. Aquino signed into law last September.... read more

Campaign materials, bawal pa

TAGBILARAN CITY, Bohol, Jan. 14 (PIA)–Gitin-aw sa Commission on Elections (Comelec) nga samtang wala pa nagsugod ang election campaign, dili pa gihapon mahimong magbutang og bisan unsang election materials sa bisan asang lugar. Matud pa ni Comelec Executive Director James Jimenez, sa Pebrero 12, 2013 pa ang pagsugod sa kampanya alang sa mga national candidate ug partylist group samtang sa Marso 29 usab magsugod ang kampanya alang sa mga lokal nga kandidato. Giangkon ni Jimenez nga gipaabot na nila ang pagdagsa sa mga poster, tarpaulins ug paggawas sa mga telebisyon sa mga kandidato tungod kay pag-abot sa campaign period, limitado na ang paggawas nila sa media. Giingong mas hugtan pa sa Comelec ang paglimita sa pagpamaskil og mga campaign posters. Nakig-alayon na usab sila sa Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) alang sa mga probinsiya ug sa Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) alang usab sa mga taga-Metro Manila sa pagtangtang sa mga gipamaskil na nga mga election materials. Bantayan usab sa Comelec ang media exposure sa mga kandidato nga aduna lamang 120 minuto sa ilang exposure nga apil na sa cable ug local channels nga dili na susama sa niaging eleksyon. Si Jimenez nagkanayon nga angay usab sundon sa mga kandidato ang budget sa kampanya nga P3.00 matag botante alang sa mga kandidatong may partido ug P5.00 sa mga independent candidate. Bantayan usab sa Comelec ang pagdagsa sa mga kandidato nga mogamit sa social network campaign. Giingong ilang bantayan ang mga gibaligyang ads sa nagkalain-laing websites.... read more

Alicia mulls to open MTB Cambaol adventure trail

TAGBILARAN CITY, October 12 (PIA)–The first local government pushed mountain trail bike (MTB) trail in Bohol is now in the offing, thanks to the vision of Alicia Mayor Marnilou Ayuban and local authorities, who see that beyond the town’s grassy hills are interconnecting opportunities for sports and wellness. Short of easy to develop tourism spots despite a trove of potentials, the rolling hills and the different high this can give to those who indulge are a better bet against the town’s almost inaccessible caves. Alicia’s stunning rolling hills and trails leading to sauntering peaks are easy giveaways to trail bikes, shared Godelia Lumugdang, town tourism and information officer during a test run on their 8.6 kilometer circuit Saturday, October 10. She said Alicia wants to hitch into the tourism bandwagon and its hills also caught the fancy of a tourism product development officer at the Bohol Tourism Office. Last Saturday, a team of 21 mountain bikers from Antequera, Alicia and Duero took over two hours of rough single trail conquering ridges through nearly impossible ascents and downhill trails of the rolling hills in Camba-ol, the town’s identified mountain-bike showcase. “It is a challenge of how one can keep up with the big rings in seemingly endless climb and then the downhill is just wicked,” a biker from Antequera admit. “Dropper seat post is recommended,” he added. The bike course starts at the Cambaol barangay hall, just below the police camp and follows a barangay road that graduates into an eroded crude carabao cart trail. Then it builds up on elevation, fording creeks, footbridges and then across tricky sandy loam...
