Unreasonable
The officials of the 4th Congressional District Sports Association particularly its chairman and honorary chairman, Nelson Blanco and Dumangas Mayor Onal Golez, respectively, should be held accountable for the unreasonable uprooting of more than 400 mahogany trees within the track oval of ISCOF-Dumangas. Clearly, the holding of the three-day district meet cannot justify the ruthless killing of the five-year old mahogany trees! Ginhawa gani ka-kampanya sang gobyerno nga magpananum sang kahoy tapos sila iya mang-galbut lang. Mga kabalan!
Shocking news
News of a certain married government employee having relations with another married woman shocked those who knew the man. Apparently, the man is a public figure being a high ranking official at the Commission on Human Rights and an active member of several civic organizations. His name also reverberates in the media circle as he is a constant source of information at the CHR and other organizations he is in. He is also a nice and intelligent speaker, in fact, he once became co-host in a television program of IBC-TV 12. Reportedly, a criminal charge of concubinage and as well as administrative charges had been filed against this official. As they say, you can't really judge a book by its cover. Any comment Atty. Arnold M.?
Declogging machine
At last, the Iloilo city government has acquired its very own declogging machine. For several days the declogging machine was seen making rounds in the city cleaning up the drainage systems. Even if it is only one, still it would be a big help in the city's common problem of flooding because of clogged drainage canals. Apparently, Mayor JPT was inspired by the declogging machines of the MMDA, deployed here after typhoon Frank, which helped a lot in clearing the city's drainage systems of thick mud. We just hope that the city government will be serious in maintaining the declogging machine in good condition, otherwise, as in other heavy equipment of the city, it will not last long.
