 Ni Mortz C. Ortigoza, MPA

MANAOAG, Pangasinan – Ikinagagalak ng alkalde dito ang pagpapaunlak ni Pangasinan 4th District Cong. Gina V. de Venecia na i-lobby ang minimithing overpass bridge na kukunekta sa iconic na simbahan dito at sa bagong palengke na magpapasigla sa huli.

MULTIPLIER-EFFECT. Pangasinan 4th District Cong. Gina V. de Venecia and Manaoag Mayor Jeremy “Ming” Rosario raise a thumbs up at the forefront of the illustrated overpass bridge that connects the Minor Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary of Manaoag and the new two- storey modern public market. The multi-million pesos’ bridge has been requested for the Congresswoman to lobby at the national government for funding. The materialization of the project would perk-up the products from the 44 towns and 4 cities’ Pangasinan being sold at the market as the pilgrims’ town has a continued influx of roughly eight million visitors a year – the biggest in the four provinces’ Region-1. 



Ang paglobby ni Cong. De Venecia ng pondo sa pamahalaang national para sa katuparan ng pangarap ni Mayor Jeremy “Ming” Rosario, MD dito ay hindi lang magpapalakas ng mga negosyo dito kundi maging multiplier effects sa mga produkto at serbisyo ng apatnapu't apat (44) na mga bayan at apat (4) na lungsod sa Pangasinan na makapag display ng mga binebenta nila.

LINGAYEN, Pangasinan – Wala nang rason ang mga opisyal ng trapiko ng ápatnapút ápat na bayan at tatlong lungsod sa Pangasinan sa pag-implementa ng Provincial Ordinance No. 325-2024 o Reflective Vest Law dahil naipasa na ng Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP) ang Provincial Ordinance Violation Receipt (POVR).

So now the PNP can get their Provincial Ordinance Violation Receipt sa Treasury. Sila ang magbibigay (inaudible) for any and all violations,” ani Vice Governor Mark Ronald Lambino ng makapanayam siya ng writer na ito sa kanyang tanggapan dito sa Capitol.

 Ni Mortz C. Ortigoza

BINMALEY, Pangasinan – Kailangan ang tamang engineering analysis at protection design sa mga seawall dito na nagpprotekta sa ilang mga barangay para maiwasan ang mga pagkakasira nila.

               SHODDY. A livid Binmaley Mayor Pete Merrera  (right) inspects the shoddy if not jerry built flood control project at the Baywalk in his town constructed by the Department of Public Works and Highway (DPWH). He cited to reporters how small are the pipes that egresses the sea water after a strong typhoon lashed the place where flood and sand piled up at the road there thus hampering the motorists. Some parts of the  concrete Baywalk were crashed by damaging storm of Super Typhoon Uwan when it scourged the area last December.

Ani Mayor Pete Merrera dito na kailangan pag-aralan ng Department of Public Works & Highway (DPWH) ang wave length, period, direction, storm surge, local current pattern kasama na ang undercurrents.

RA 9003 o Republic Act No. 9003 o mas kilala bilang Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000 ay batas na nagbibigay ng legal na balangkas para sa sistematiko, komprehensibo, at ekolohikal na programa sa pamamahala ng solid waste sa Pilipinas. Ipinag-uutos nito ang pagbabawas ng basura, pagbubukod-bukod sa pinagmulan (segregation at source), pag-recycle, at pagkompos, habang binibigyang-diin ang pakikilahok ng komunidad at wastong pagtatapon sa pamamagitan ng mga Materials Recovery Facilities (MRF).

Ang Zero Waste ay isang adbokasiya kung saan ito ay naglalayon na mabawasan ang generation na mga basura sa pamamagitan ng mga simpleng paraan tulad ng paggamit ng reusables sa halip ng mga disposables, tama at matalinong pagkunsumo ng mga resources upang maiwasan ang produksoyon ng basura, recycling/ upcycling, composting at iba pa.

Will the Impeachment Bid Vs. BBM Prosper?

 

By Mortz C. Ortigoza

Will the Remullas become more powerful and will control some congressional district and other political posts in the vote rich Cavite in the 2028 electoral derby after the patriarch of the Revillas former Senator Bong has been sent to the hoosegow and will rot again there in a nonbailable thieving crime?


As of 2025, the Remulla and Revilla families hold key political positions in Cavite Province:

‎ Mangaldan Gagamitin ang Unspent QRF sa Infras

 

MANGALDAN, Pangasinan – ‎Aprubado na ng Municipal Development Council (MDC) ng local government dito ang paggamit ng mga hindi nagastos na pondo mula sa 30 porsiyentong Quick Response Fund (QRF) ng Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM) Fund para sa mga taong 2020 hanggang 2025, kasunod ng isinagawang pagpulong kamakailan lang na pinangunahan ni Mayor Bona Fe de Vera-Parayno.


‎Ayon sa napagkasunduan ng MDC,  ang malaking bahagi ng pondo ay ilalaan sa konstruksyon ng tulay sa Barangay Macayug -- isang lugar na madalas maapektuhan ng pagbaha.
