MANILA – The Commission on Elections (Comelec) has suspended the proclamation of former Social Welfare and Development Secretary Erwin Tulfo as ACT-CIS party-list’s nominee next-in-line. In a statement released on Wednesday evening, the poll body said the seven-man panel decided to suspend the proclamation after receiving a petition seeking to disqualify the group’s nominee next-in-line late last month. “In its Regular Meeting today, March 1, 2023, the Commission on Elections en banc resolved to suspend the proclamation of Mr. Erwin P. Tulfo, nominee next-in-line of ACT-CIS Party-List Group in view of the filing of a Petition for Disqualification against him on February 28, 2023,” it said. The petition filed by lawyer Moises Tolentino Jr. seeks Tulfo's disqualification on allegations pertaining to "question of citizenship" and "conviction by final judgment of a crime involving moral turpitude". The petition was docketed by the Clerk of the Commission, was t...

DUMAGUETE CITY – Former members of the New People’s Army in Negros Oriental province who have reintegrated into mainstream society are now embracing a new life as entrepreneurs. The former rebels received Tuesday night their livelihood kits – layering chicken packages – from the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) during a small ceremony at the headquarters of the Philippine Army’s 11th Infantry Battalion (11IB) in Barangay Salag, Siaton town. The livelihood package, worth around PHP30,000 each, consists of 24 heads of ready-to-lay chickens, chicken feed, and a mechanical egg collection unit, according to DOLE-Negros Oriental provincial chief, Ma. Theresa Tanquiamco. The chickens that were delivered are ready to lay eggs already, and in a few weeks, the beneficiaries can begin collecting and selling them. The egg production business is expected to boost the income of the former rebels who were reunited with their families after they surrendered last year to the 11th IB. Lt....

Urban agri projects to address food security issues: PBBM

MANILA – President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. on Wednesday urged fellow Filipinos to support urban farming initiatives to help his administration in addressing threats to food security. Marcos made the call, as he lauded the collaborative efforts of the Department of Agriculture (DA) and the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) in launching the Halina’t Magtanim ng Prutas at Gulay/Kadiwa Ay Yaman/Plants for Bountiful Barangays Movement (Hapag Kay PBBM) at the Rizal Park Open Air Auditorium in Manila.

MANILA – The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and the Philippine National Police (PNP) will expedite the use of modern technology in fighting all crimes in the country. In a statement on Wednesday, DILG Secretary Benjamin Abalos Jr. said modern technology will also be utilized to recruit more police officers and review laws pertaining to the sale of vehicles. This came after Tuesday's meeting between Abalos and House Speaker Ferdinand Martin Romualdez where they discussed the strategies and methods employed by the PNP in resolving “high-profile killings". During the meeting, the DILG chief also sought the assistance of Congress for the disbursement of an additional budget to further strengthen the country’s police force. “We were able to discuss among others the usage of technology in the fight against criminality, and maximum police visibility,” Abalos noted.

MILF vows to decommission; implores armed groups to disband

COTABATO CITY – The Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) remains committed to the peace deal it signed with the national government, including the decommissioning of its combatants, a top Bangsamoro region official said Wednesday. Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) Chief Minister Ahod Ebrahim issued the remarks after four of five BARMM provincial governors urged for the suspension of this year’s barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan polls in the area pending the completion of the decommissioning process. “Like them, we also wanted to speed up the decommissioning process but remember we are doing our part and the government is also doing its part,” Ebrahim said over a radio interview here. Ebrahim said blaming the MILF for the rising criminality in Mindanao is unfair. He did not elaborate. Nevertheless, the MILF leader said cases of violence in the BARMM dropped after the national government and MILF signed a peace deal in 2014. Ebrahim also called on the nat...
