Sept. 25, 2015 Iloilo City I was heading to the Iloilo City Police Office 1 last night to interview protesters arrested by the Guardia Civil for "diobedience to lawful authority" and "illegal assembly". Let's set aside the nitwits who contrived those charges against unarmed citizens exercising their constitutional rights to freedom of expression and peaceful assembly but my attention as I was walking to the police station was caught by heavy presence of traffic enforcers and motorized police officers l ining along the road. The lane fronting the University of San Agustin leading toward the Iloilo Provincial Capitol, was full of vehicles and at a standstill. The supposed counterflow, or the lane heading south to Molo was empty. Then the sirens and whistles from traffic enforcers began wailing: a column of vehicles led by motorbike borne cops descended down the overpass along the counter-flow that was purposedly blocked of other vehicles so

Iloilo City September 2, 2015 What is the worst disaster ever befallen the country? Answer: Pres. BS Aquino III and his administration. And how do you solve that? Answer: the people's struggle. The people shall solve that through their struggle to establish a responsive, industrialized and democratic Philippines. That's one lesson shared and learned by participants to the two-day workshop here that also led to the formation of a "people's network" for disaster preparedness and response in Panay and Guimaras. The gathering is also billed by organizers as "people's alternative forum" to the two-day discussion at the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) conference on a similar topic now in progress in the country, in Iloilo City particularly.. The APEC version of disaster response skirts main causes of natural disasters and blames the very victims of calamities like pointing to farmers as cause of denudation for their "kaingin"

Maasin, Iloilo September 19, 2015 The pictures here  were taken on September 12, 2015 at the dam, Brgy. Daja, Maasin, Iloilo, at the 16th Pista sa Kakahuyan, a ceremonial tree planting. The pictures of Tigum River, especially of bamboo poles tied together into a raft navigating downstream until the "auction area" where they are stockpiled and sold to buyers for transport to Iloilo City. In 1994, when Iloilo Governor Arthur D. Defensor, Sr. accepted the challenge from a lobby group formed by then Army Col. Victor Corpus that Maasin Watershed was in critical shape and may not soon deliver water. If denudation continued, Corpus warned, the Metro Iloilo Water District (MIWD) could no longer deliver water to taps of residents of Iloilo City by 2000. That same year, the Iloilo Provincial Government started the first ceremonial tree planting to spread public awareness while the actual planting would be done by job hires from saplings supplied by nurseries of the provin

Iloilo City Sept. 11, 2015 I was waiting for ride this morning at Luna Street when a caravan of vehicles, mostly ambulances from government and private hospitals, streamed awailing, on their hoods were streamers announcing the celebration of "International Day for Suicide Prevention". Yesterday, TV reports had one young man found hanging at the toilet. His mother said he had been depressed after his girlfriend jilted him. This morning, over at Aksyon Radyo, a father was also found hanging by a nylon cord in his room by his kids. Police investigators were inclined to conclude both cases were suicide. The mother of the second suicide victim was quoted as saying that her son had a fit of tantrum the night before scaring his kids as he slammed anything he could lay his hand on. He runs a vulcanizing shop at his house in Sara, Iloilo but still asked his mother, a peasant, for money "to buy food." The old woman stopped giving him money after discovering he used
