DAGUPAN, UST conduct free minor operations and circumcision



 DAGUPAN CITY – In partnership with the University of Santo Tomas Medical Mission Incorporated (USTMMI), this burgeoning city conducted a two-day surgical mission for minor operation and circumcision last April 21 and 22 at West Central 1 Elementary School.
After the two-day medical mission, 700 children out of 1500 who registered were circumcised while 200 out of 500 patients underwent minor operations on masses or ”Nikolai”, cysts, lipoma, warts, moles and skin tags.
The USTMMI was conducting a free medical mission in the city yearly, an activity which started since Fernandez was still a city councilor, in collaboration with the City Health Office.
Weeks before the medical mission, the mayor invited everyone to avail of the free medical services during her barangay consultations. 
We are bringing our government services closer to our people. And soon we will open our Diagnostic Center and Lying-In Clinic which will render free x-ray, ultrasound, ECG for indigents,” said Fernandez.
The UST team was headed by Dr. William Olalia. (Joseph C. Bacani/CIO)

Watch for Murphy’s Law – Former Kap warns brgy bets



By Mortz C. Ortigoza

“Don’t belittle your weak opponent, he could make surprises,” advice by a former Punong Barangay (Village Chief) to those who are running for the 2018 Barangay Election.
The chief lost in an election he blamed on Murphy’s Law.
Murphy Law is an adage or epigram that states "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong".

The chairman, who asked anonymity, said he was a shoo-in for his reelection bid to win based on his surveys at the sitios.
But he still lost it because of the resources of the incumbent mayor that damaged his political stocks.
“The mayor was a shrewd politician as based on his personal experiences. In the past election he was behind in popularity when he challenged the incumbent mayor. He explained that because of machination and drama the challenging mayor created and immediately snapped and played by the media the sitting mayor lost his reelection.
“During the start of the (barangay) election, the mayor pledge to his supporters that all the villages that supported his pet-peeve vice mayor would lost in the poll,” the losing village chairman cited.
Due to the operational and intellectual supports of the mayor, all of those blacklisted punong barangay chairmen, including him lost. 
The chutzpah was a textbook model how to outwit one’s opponent who was leading the race and made him lost it.
Unlike in his previous ran for the village chairmanship, he and his supporters were unrestrained giving dole outs and buying votes to the about 8,000 voters.
“But in my reelection, the electoral field was different. While I have my Three Gs (Gold, Goons, Guns) my rival had all the full support of the more powerful and well-armed police through the help of the mayor”.
He could hardly complete efficiently the two waves of doling outs his goods and monies as the police and the rival’s supporters were watching him and his supporters closely.
He did not reach the third wave where P250 bills would be used to buy votes because of the incident that happened to him and his supporters the night before the casting of votes.
 He cited that almost all the one million pesos kitty was not consummated as the police had destroyed his will to fund the third wave.
The reason for his demoralization: The mayor coached the former chairman to bribe the driver of the incumbent Kapitan to drive out his pick-up car in the wee hour.
“Kap, pagasulinahan natin ito mamaya. Problema pa natin iyan baka maubusan tayo ng gasolina pag umikot tayo,” the driver told him.
He said another two of his unwitting aides accompanied the unfaithful corrupt driver.
After the clock hit midnight, the car was cruising to the gasoline station in the village but was immediately flagged down by policemen manning a newly installed check point.
The trio was ordered to disembark and frisk while their vehicle was searched and was found out to have rifles without license.
 At 2 o’clock in the following early morning he and his lawyer were at the police station arguing with the chief of police that the guns were “planted” where the police could not even produce the guns.
But it was not the concern of the police and probably the mayor and his rival. What was in their mind was the hype the apprehension of his men and seizing of their set up rifles could bring as a huge news in that day’s prime time television and radio.
What aggravated the destruction of his integrity and the plunged of his popularity before the voters who go to the precincts to exercise their rights of suffrage on that day was the series of pronouncements of the Election Officer of the Commission on Election to the media that he was already damaged and would be subjected to criminal charges and jail time even if he wins the election.
Masakit. Ang Election Officer interviewed at the behest of the mayor. He said mabigat itong kaso ni Kapitan kahit na manalo siya, paulit ulit pang sinabi iyon, hindi rin siya makakatapos dahil pa file din siya ng kaso,” he recalled.
He lost 500 votes among the 8,000 voters of the village to the come backing kapitan, thanks to the astute interference of the mayor whose administration was also known to reek with corruption issues because of the willing conspiracy not only with the pro mayor village chiefs but even with the members of the local government’s legislative body.


Media man’s son robbed




DAGUPAN CITY – A son of a political columnist here was robbed near the gate of the City National High School by two men while he was bound walking to his home nearby.
ZJ Rosario Ortigoza, 23, said that around 8:30 pm Wednesday after a brief chat with a friend near the Total Gas Station in Barangay Amado Tapuac here  and while he was walking home, a five feet four inches medium built guy grabbed his back shoulder and declared the robbery in a hurried and threatening voice.


BAD GUYS – Two of the robbers, caught by a security camera, run toward Perez Boulevard after robbing last April 25 the son of a media man in Dagupan City near the City National High School while he was walking home after a jog around the city. A crew of a cafe shop nearby said there were a lot of robberies that ensued in the area since early this year but the victims chose not to report to the police.



The culprit, clad in a black dress and red short pants, locked his neck with his left hand while his right hand pointed a long knife to his lower right torso while the other companion wearing a white tee shirt faced Ortigoza.
The victim had a bruised on his right elbow from the knife of the malefactor.
“(A)nd declared hold-up ordering the victim to give his cell-phone J7 Core Samsung colored grey worth Php 9,990 with Sim No. 09330204421 with earphone attached to the suspects companion, thereafter suspects immediately ran toward Perez Boulevard,” a police blotter certification documented.

"After they threatened and left me I ran toward the police substation a few yards near I was held up but there were no cops manning it," he deplored.
Ortigoza is the eldest son of Mortz Ortigoza a political columnist of this newspaper.
According to the responding police officers PO3 Narvasa, PO2 Guiling, and P01 Doctolero, since January this year there was no robbery incident in this city.
 The father of the victim calls the  police under Chief of Police Supt. Jandale Sulit to haunt down the culprits as they could kill other victims who would be resisting in giving their valuables to these robbers.
Sources, through the sleuthing of Ortigoza, said that these hold uppers hang around the overpass near the city high school or nearby waiting for their prey who did not report the incidents to the police.
"First week of this month a guy was held up near the overpass by three guys using the same modus operandi where they used a knife in getting the mobile phone of the victim. Marami na po na ho-hold up diyan hindi lang nag re-report sa police," the crew of a cafe shop, who asked for anonymity, said.
Without any more assistance from the police a day after the heist, the victim was able to get some video footage of the robbers running to the Perez Area.

18 free tractors for Sual farmers – Mayor


By Mortz C. Ortigoza

SUAL – Farmers in this coal –power plant hosting town are probably the most pampered in the country if not in Pangasinan because of those expensive farm equipment subsidies given by the mayor here.
Mayor Roberto “Bing” Arcinue cited that aside from the certified, hybrid palay seeds, organic and chemical fertilizers, threshers, and others, there are 18 Kubota four wheeled farm tractors in the pipeline ready for distribution in the 19 villages.
“Nasungkit ko iyong ten na tractors, may eight pa na tractors that our town will buy,” he told Northern Watch the bonanzas he had given and he would be giving to those grateful Western Pangasinan’s peasants.

IMEE IN SUAL - Senatorial wannabe Ilocos Norte Governor Imee Marcos poses for posterity with Sual, Pangasinan Mayor Roberto “Bing” Arcinue and the first class municipal's councilor JC Arcinue before the start of the Parade and Street Dancing Contest to celebrate the town's fiesta held recently at the Municipal Seaport. Marcos, who landed No. 13 at the latest Pulse Asia’s poll, graces the event.


Arcinue hosted recently the First Farmers Night during the fiesta celebration for this year.
He said that he socialized and consulted with them at an event charged with a banquet and an orchestra that add more ambiance before the wide eyed farmers held at this burgeoning town’s gymnasium.

How Brgy Kap’s bets buy votes and win



 By Mortz C. Ortigoza

(First of a Three Series Articles)

Now that the Barangay (Village) election is few more days to go, I will share the experiences of a Punong Barangay (Village Chairman) bet we will call in fictitious name Philip Dipaawat.
In my almost one hour interview with him, where he asked for anonymity, he divulged the illegitimate ugly sides of winning the vulnerable and susceptible hearts and minds of the voters in his and his opponents determination to win the coveted post in Barangay Nababayaran somewhere in the urban area of Northern Luzon.

In 2007 Barangay Election, Barangay Nababayaran had 8,000 voters.

ME: How many of you aspired for the position of Kapitan (Spanish term of village chief that was termed as Kapitan del Barrio before)?

DIPAAWAT: Five of us, but the two were spent force. My two tough opponents were a rich matron looking businesswoman and the junkie (narcotics dependent) looking son of the Kapitan.

The “Luck” brought by 18th of April for candidates



 By Mortz C. Ortigoza

MANGALDAN – Candidates for the May 14 Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan  Elections (BSKE) all over the country brave the scorching summer sun and the inconveniences of a long queue just to file their Certificate of Candidacy (COC) at the offices of the Commission on Election because of the magic brought by April 18.
Sta. Barbara, Pangasinan Mayor Carlito Zaplan and Sual, Pangasinan Mayor Roberto Arcinue said that candidates in the 44 towns and four towns’ Pangasinan province observe this superstition since time immemorial.


LUCK - Candidates for the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Election (BSKE) in Mangaldan, Pangasinan scramble inside the limited space of the Election Registrar of the Commission of Election in the Central Pangasinan’s town because of the supposed luck brought by 8 in April 18. MORTZ C. ORTIGOZA
Both chief executives said the Comelec offices in their towns were jam packed with scrambling zealots.
Punong Barangay (Barangay Chief) Alicia Velasquez of Pogo this town cited that the April 18 mad rushed at the Comelec was phenomenal in the entire country.

“Pataas e, saka itong araw na ito araw na pinakamatigas,” Dante Enriquez Cera, a seasoned radio commentator who vied for re-election for the Sangguniang Barangay (Village Legislative Body) of Banaoang of this burgeoning town, cited.
He said that the diagonal and curve lines of ocho or “8” in 18 goes up to the end point.
He cited that April 15 brings luck too to bets because the singko or “5” has an upper end tip point.
The filling of CoC started last April 14 and ended at 5 pm of April 21.
According to numerology.com, 8 is the great Karmic equalizer, a force that just as easily creates as it destroys. When the 8 comes knocking, you can be assured that you will reap what you have sown. The 8 balances the material and immaterial worlds. At its best, it is as spiritual as it is materialistic.

Time to tease JV, Bam overtakes him in Senate's Polls


By Mortz C. Ortigoza

When I asked early this year reelectionist Senator Jayvee Ejercito, the son of a former President, about his take on the poor political poll’s stock of reelectionist Senator Bam Aquino on the December 2017 Social Weather Station’s senatorial preference, he retorted with a guffaw: “Iyon ang may malaking problema!”
 He referred to the poor performance of Aquino on the survey despite being in the Top 20 of the 12 senators needed to win so they can be in the August Chamber for the 2019 -2025's term of office.

Image may contain: 15 people, people smiling

Ejercito and Aquino were numbers 11 and X (Rappler.com did not give the rank), respectively, on that survey.
In the March 23-28 Pulse Asia’s poll, it seems Aquino would be the one teasing Estrada as the latter was in No. 15 while the former was in  No. 14. Pulse’s put both to rove in Numbers 10-19.
Both Senators have been busily crisscrossing the country for consultations and obviously to bolster their weak political stocks by extricating themselves, salamabit, from the cellar dweller's tag. 
In the latest SWS’s poll those who entered the top 20 were (from highest to lowest):
  1) Senator Grace Poe; 2) Senator Cynthia Villar; 3) Former Senator Pia Cayetano; 4) Senator Nancy Binay; 5) Senator Sonny Angara; 6) Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio; 7) Senate President Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel; 8) Former Senator Sergio OsmeƱa; 9) Former Senator Lito Lapid; 10) Former Senator Jinggoy Estrada; 11) Broadcaster Erwin Tulfo; and 12) Former PNP Chief Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa.


Controversial blogger and present Presidential Communication Operations Office Assistant Secretary Easter Margaux “Mocha” Uson and transgender Bataan Representative Geraldine Roman, the goat or the last one, were at the 40-56 and 52-58 ranks, respectively.

***

My posed when I saw Mocha’s poor performance: “Baka hao-shiao lang iyong 5.6 million Face Book's followers ni Mocha? Bakit kulelat sa survey ang kabayan nating Dagupena? “
When Uson’s name was included to be part of the senatorial ticket of the PDP-Laban for the 2019 race, her boss Media Communication Office Secretary Martin Andanar (No. 27-37 in the latest Pulse’s poll), was quick to say that the former entertainer-turned-public official would win.
He confidently cited that Uson’s “no-brainer” victory can be attributed to her large social media following.
Uson has been being demonized by critics to be the purveyor of fake news in the country.
Before joining President Rodrigo Duterte's administration, she was once a purveyor of what was prurient in this country.
"Ano iyong prurient, Pareng Mortz?" Kulafo Dimakatalos, my tricycle driver friend who lives near the house of Mocha in Barangay Amado Tapuac, Dagupan City, text me after reading this blog in the internet.
"Ah, prurient. Ibig sabihin having or encouraging an excessive interest in sexual matters as shown on her video on TV, the internet and live programs," I explained.


***

Here's the comments on the poor survey performance of Mocha from Bugallon, Pangasinan former Mayor Ric Orduna, Calasiao, Pangasinan former Administrator Vivvincio Vallo, and Newspaper Editor Giovani Madrid ( a son of the former mayor of Aguillar, Pangasinan):

Mayor Orduna: Alam mo kaibigan noong midterm election na si GMA ang presidente halos lahat ng politiko na nakaupo na kagaya ko nasa administrasyon at ang sinasabi ng partidong Lakas-Kampi 12-0 zero ang kalaban mga kandidato ng administrasyon noon sila Chavit, Pichay, zubirri, cesar montano na artista at kung sino sino pa na mga sikat at mayayaman hehehe sa kasamahang palad si Zubirri lang po lumosot may daya pa kaya nanalo si Pimentel sa protesta. Ang di ko makalimotan noong nagkaroon ng political rally sa Binalonan kamiy inimbita para mag attend isa- isang dumarating ang mga kandidato at isa-isa din silang pinagsasalita daming taong pumunta ng si Cesar Montano ang dumating kasama ang asawang Sunshine Cruz naku kawawa yong nagsasalita tinalikuran ng mga tao at dinumog si Montano hiyawan sigawan napakainit ng pagtangap sa kanya kaya nasabi ko sa sarili ko sigurado ng senador itong Montano na ito sikat talagang artista mali pala ako resulta kulelat. Kaya itong kababayan natin na si Mocha kung makausap mo advice mo siya hindi siya ganon kasikat kay Montano at baka di niya alam dito lang sa atin pag siya ay napag uusapan yong iba napapamura mukhang daming galit sa kanya at di maalis sa utak ng mga tao yong dati niyang raket alam mo na yon. Regards my friend.

Admin Vallo:Dagdag mo pa mga Marcos loyalist, galit din sa kanya. Wala siyang solid North kaya d siya oobra. Well articulated ang binitawan ni Mayor (Orduna) and that's a fact.

Mortz: Naalala ko si Bong Revilla noong dinala ninyo ni Mayor Roy sa Calasiao, of all my experiences as a media practitioner that was a campaign were people went gaga, artista kasi. Iba ang dating ng artista sa mga tao. But unlike Cesar Montano, Edu Manzano and other members of the celluloid screen, Bong Revilla did not only win that senate race, but beat his fellow senators to win a room in a detention cell sa Camp Crame - talagang sikat may paiyak iyak pa sa plunder cases niya.

Editor Madrid: Well, she’s famous... and well-known. But she’s known more for her notoriety. And what really are the qualities of being well-known? So funny, people now use the term notorious in a more neutral way as a form of irony - which doesn’t actually change the fact that the proper use of this word has a negative flavor.

Second Sual coal plant boosts economic prospects - Arcinue

This was stressed by Mayor Roberto Ll. Arcinue in a recent interview with newsmen after President Duterte’s recent trip to China.
During  Duterte’s visit to Boao, China, 10 Chinese companies said they would invest billions in the Philippines.

The estimated total value of the investment is about $9 billion or P467 billion. The investments are also expected to generate 10,000 jobs for Fillpinos.
With the influx of foreign investors into the country, it has become imperative for the country to have sufficient, stable and affordable electricity, according to the mayor.
“It is hard for our economy to grow fast and have sustainable development if its power supply is unstable and costly,” he stressed.
