Nathalie Ann “Lee Ann” Debuque flashes a confident smile as she presides over the inaugural session of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Iloilo, marking her first official act as the province’s second-highest official. NELJOY GALIGAO/PN Vice Gov. Nathalie Ann “Lee Ann” Debuque flashes a confident smile as she presides over the inaugural session of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Iloilo, marking her first official act as the province’s second-highest official. NELJOY GALIGAO/PN ILOILO – In her first official act as presiding officer of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP), Vice Gov. Nathalie Ann “Lee Ann” Debuque called on Provincial Board members to set aside politics, embrace diversity, and adopt critical thinking to craft policies that reflect the real needs of the people. Addressing the SP during its inaugural session at the Iloilo Provincial Capitol, Debuque underscored the importance of listening, reasoning, and respectful debate to improve legislation and governance. “Many were curious as to how I will manage as presiding officer. One of the key things instilled in me is critical thinking. To listen, to question, to reason, and thus I encourage everyone to have debates, to tackle and have different opinions — not for the sake of disagreement, but to sharpen our ideas and arrive at a better outcome for our people,” she said, Debuque, a former mayor of Anilao, also emphasized the importance of collective effort and humility in governance: “What I have learned as a Mayor of Anilao for the last nine years is that you cannot govern alone. I will enjoy the pleasure and the challenge of presiding over the 15th Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Iloilo.” She also acknowledged the shared vision among board members and expressed optimism for their legislative term: “I am excited to put my heels on rest and work with you. I would also like to be with my fellow Board Members in their shared vision for the Province of Iloilo.” New board members likewise used the session to affirm their commitment to public service. First District Board Member Rica Jane Garin, in her maiden speech, said she was overwhelmed by the support she received and vowed to give back through dedicated service. “Amo ja ang una nga beses nga pag-intra ko sa serbisyo publiko kag nabatyagan ko gid nga sobra-sobra ang anda nga pagpalangga kanakon… Wala man ni sa ambition ko nga mangin board member… but nevertheless I take pride sa pagsalig ka akon pamuluyo,” said Garin. Third District Board Member Mark Palabrica recalled his early exposure to public service as a youth leader during Boys and Girls Week: “I never imagined that after 32 years of being a Boy Provincial Board Member… I am now elected as a regular member of the SP… As a newly-elected SP member, I will try my best to accomplish my mandate of being the voice of the people.” Fourth District Board Member Dominique Paul Oso echoed his colleagues’ sentiments, saying: “Tinguhaan ko nga ang ila pagpalangga baylohan ko sang akon kapisan, nga mag serbisyo sang tampad kag sa bilog man nga probinsya.” Board Member Nielito C. Tupas of the 5th District also spoke of a renewed sense of purpose in his return to the board: “Nagbalik ako kay may mga kulang… ang third run is to God, to myself, and to the 5th District, that in mind tinguhaon ko gid nga makahimo kag makabulig.” Fellow 5th District Board Member Rolex Suplico offered a reflective take on their legislative role: “What we do in life echoes in eternity… We are legislating lives, not just paperwork. At the end of the day, we are here to realize the dreams not just of this generation, but for generations to come.”/PN Citation Citation of the article Galigao, N. ( 2025, July 3 ).

Text Any textual data included in the document Dengue clusters surge in Iloilo; 39 brgys in 20 towns affected By Ime Sornito -Thursday, July 3, 2025 ILOILO — The number of barangays with confirmed clustering of dengue cases in Iloilo Province surged by 70 percent in just one week, raising alarms over the fast-spreading mosquito-borne disease. From 23 barangays in 14 municipalities last week, the latest data from the Iloilo Provincial Health Office (IPHO) as of June 28 (26th morbidity week) show that 39 barangays in 20 towns have now recorded dengue clusters — defined as having at least three cases in a barangay over a four-week period. “This is a significant increase,” aid IPHO chief Dr. Maria Socorro Colmenares-Quiñon. The towns with confirmed clustering include: * Ajuy – Poblacion (four) * Alimodian – Poblacion (three) * Barotac Nuevo – Lagubang (three), Monpon (three), and Salihid (three) * Barotac Viejo – Vista Alegre (five) * Bingawan – Poblacion (four) * Cabatuan – Tabucan (three) and Tiring (three) * Calinog – Libot (four) * Carles – Cabilao Pequeño (four) * Concepcion – Poblacion (three) * Dumangas – Bolilao (four), Paloc Sool (five), Bacong (three), Ilaya 2rd (five), and Cayos (four) * Janiuay – Jibolo (four) * Lambunao – Poblacion Ilawod (three) * Leganes – Poblacion (three) and Napnud (three) * Lemery – Poblacion SE Zone (three) * Leon – Biri Sur (five), Poblacion (five), and Talacuan (four) * Oton – Buray (three), Santa Rita (three), Batuan Ilaud (10), and Caboloan Sur (three) * Pavia – Balabag (three), Jibao-an (three), Pagsanga-an (three), Tigum (three), and Ungka II (three) * Pototan – Barasan (three), Igang (four), and Guibuangan (three) * Santa Barbara – Zone VI (three) * Sara – Devera (three) Dr. Quiñon renewed her appeal to residents not to tire of practicing preventive measures, including the “4S” strategy (Search and destroy mosquito breeding sites, Secure self-protection, Seek early consultation, Support fogging in hot spots) and the “4Ts” (Taob or turn containers upside down, Taktak or empty water-holding vessels, Tuyo or dry water-collecting surfaces, and Takip or cover water storage units). Each household is urged to conduct weekly search-and-destroy operations to eliminate mosquito breeding grounds. “Please, let us not get tired of doing the 4S and checking for mosquito habitats not just outside but also inside our homes,” she stressed. Those experiencing fever and other dengue symptoms such as palanuka (vomiting), bleeding, and on-and-off fever are advised to immediately seek medical help. Severe dengue can be fatal if left unmanaged. Dengue is caused by a virus transmitted by the bite of an infected Aedes aegypti mosquito. Its symptoms include sudden high fever, severe headaches, joint and muscle pain, skin rashes, and bleeding. There is no specific treatment, and early medical intervention is critical. As of June 28, Iloilo Province has recorded 2,511 dengue cases with 10 deaths, a 58 percent increase from the 1,586 cases and five deaths recorded during the same period last year. Topping the list of municipalities with the most cases are: * San Joaquin (172) * Oton (160 with one death) * Dumangas (132) * Leon (127) * Cabatuan (114) * Pototan (107 with two deaths) * Lambunao (99 with one death) * Janiuay (90) * Calinog (83) * Pavia (79) The disease has now reached all 42 towns and the component city of Passi. Other areas with dengue cases are: Ajuy (78), San Dionisio (76), Barotac Nuevo (75), Sara (74 cases with one death), Passi City (60), Maasin (58), Barotac Viejo (56), Concepcion (55), Tigbauan (54 cases with one death), Carles (52 cases with two deaths), Santa Barbara (52), Banate (49), Estancia (44), San Miguel (44), Alimodian (40), San Rafael (38), Miag-ao (37), Guimbal (32), Batad (31), Mina (31), Badiangan (30), Dingle (30), Balasan (29 cases with one death), Leganes (28), Anilao (27), Dueñas (27 cases with one death), Lemery (26), Zarraga (26), Bingawan (23), Igbaras (20), San Enrique (19), Tubungan (19), and New Lucena (10)./PN Citation Citation of the article Sornito, I.

Text Any textual data included in the document Iloilo nears global target in rabies control with over 213,000 dogs vaccinated By Neljoy N. Galigao -Wednesday, May 7, 2025 ILOILO – This province is closing in on the global rabies prevention standard of 70% dog vaccination coverage after successfully immunizing over 213,000 dogs from February to April 2025, the Office of the Provincial Veterinarian (PVO) reported. This figure represents 58% of the estimated 367,907 dog population in the province, a significant stride toward eliminating rabies through mass immunization. The campaign, which spanned three months, was participated in by 43 local government units (LGUs) and forms part of the provincial government’s intensified health and zoonotic disease prevention program. Several municipalities exceeded the global benchmark, with Banate, Cabatuan, and Miag-ao recording a 96% vaccination rate. Other top-performing towns included Barotac Viejo (94%), Batad (93%); Leganes, Anilao, Oton (92%); Dingle (91%); New Lucena (89%); Carles (88%); Lemery (85%); Tigbauan (80%); Maasin (79%); San Miguel (77%); Tubungan (74%); Igbaras (73%); San Joaquin (72%); and Concepcion (70%). The campaign, spearheaded by local paraveterinary teams and volunteers, employed house-to-house vaccinations and public awareness drives to combat rabies – a deadly viral disease transmitted primarily through bites or scratches from infected animals. According to the PVO, the program not only seeks to prevent rabies but also promotes responsible pet ownership and community health. Follow-up vaccinations and educational efforts are ongoing to sustain the momentum and achieve full province-wide coverage. Officials reiterated the importance of the initiative, stressing that dog vaccination remains the most effective way to break the transmission cycle and safeguard both human and animal lives./PN Citation Citation of the article Sornito, I.

Its rich biodiversity and natural beauty make it an ideal candidate for eco-tourism. Pan de Azucar Island, famous for its towering Mount Pan de Azucar (Sugarloaf Mountain), is home to three barangays: Macatunao, Talotu-an, and Tambaliza. Its rich biodiversity and natural beauty make it an ideal candidate for eco-tourism. ILOILO – The provincial government is ramping up efforts to position Pan de Azucar Island in Concepcion town as a leading eco-tourism destination, with a focus on sustainable development and environmental preservation. Gov. Arthur Defensor Jr. recently met with officials and stakeholders from the Save Pan de Azucar group to discuss the island’s transformation into a model eco-tourism site that will conserve its unique ecosystems while fostering local tourism. Pan de Azucar, famous for its towering Mount Pan de Azucar (Sugarloaf Mountain), is home to three barangays: Macatunao, Talotu-an, and Tambaliza. Its rich biodiversity and natural beauty make it an ideal candidate for eco-tourism. To further this vision, Provincial Administrator Raul Banias convened a coordination meeting with the Provincial Tourism Office and local barangay officials. The goal of the meeting was to assess the island’s tourism potential, evaluate its existing infrastructure, and pinpoint opportunities for sustainable development. “First, we need to inventory our tourism assets and facilities and determine the needs of the island to make it an eco-tourism area,” Banias stressed. As part of the initiative, the provincial government plans to organize a broader stakeholders’ meeting to align various development proposals with the needs and aspirations of Pan de Azucar’s residents. This inclusive approach aims to maximize the economic and social benefits of tourism while ensuring that the island’s ecological integrity is maintained. In 2024, residents near Pan de Azucar raised concerns about proposed quarry and mining activities on the island, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding the environment and public health. They expressed strong opposition, particularly due to concerns over arsenic contamination in the local groundwater, underscoring the island’s vital ecological role. The move to develop Pan de Azucar into an eco-tourism hub is in line with Governor Defensor’s Executive Order No. 168, which established the “Turista sa Barangay” program. This initiative promotes rural tourism by developing villages as attractive destinations for visitors and creating spaces that cater to tourists while ensuring environmental sustainability. As part of this effort, the provincial government is also focusing on reforestation and social forestry projects to preserve and enhance green spaces across the region./PN Citation Citation of the article Galigao, N.

Text Any textual data included in the document ILOILO AIRPORT MAINTAINS PROTOCOLS: No ‘special treatment’ for passengers from Davao following mpox detection By Ime Sornito -Wednesday, April 23, 2025 QUIÑON QUIÑON ILOILO City – Despite the recent detection of two monkeypox (mpox) cases in Davao City, including one fatality, the Iloilo Provincial Health Office (IPHO) assured the public that no additional measures or special treatment would be imposed on passengers arriving from Davao through the Iloilo Airport. Dr. Maria Socorro Colmenares-Quiñon, head of the IPHO, emphasized that the protocols at the Iloilo Airport remain consistent for all passengers, regardless of their origin, to avoid any form of discrimination. ComScore Observer She clarified that the province is not singling out individuals traveling from Davao, as direct flights between Iloilo and Davao City regularly take place. “There is no need for special treatment for passengers from Davao. Health personnel in Davao, including those from the airline, are already conducting surveillance before departure. Our goal is not to create unnecessary fear or discrimination, as long as there is no prolonged skin-to-skin contact or intimate exposure with an infected individual,” Dr. Quiñon stated. The Department of Health (DOH) confirmed that the two Davao City patients, both admitted to a hospital isolation facility, were diagnosed with mpox Clade II. One of the patients, who passed away, reportedly succumbed to complications unrelated to the virus. The DOH has assured that all passengers from Davao, like all international and domestic arrivals, undergo thorough health screenings under the supervision of the Bureau of Quarantine (BOQ) and Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP). Should any passenger exhibit symptoms of mpox, health personnel are prepared to transport them to the Western Visayas Medical Center (WVMC) in Mandurriao for proper management, including specimen collection for confirmatory testing at the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine (RITM) in Metro Manila. “We have long-standing surveillance protocols in place. Our teams at the airport are well-versed in how to manage mpox concerns, and no new advisories have been issued because we are already prepared,” Dr. Quiñon said, stressing that ongoing disease surveillance continues at all major entry points, including airports like Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in Metro Manila. Symptoms of mpox include skin rashes, mucosal lesions, fever, muscle aches, and swollen lymph nodes. The virus is primarily spread through close physical contact, including skin-to-skin contact, as well as contaminated objects and animal bites. Dr. Quiñon assured that, as of now, Iloilo has not recorded any positive cases of mpox. Five specimens have been sent to RITM for testing since last year, all of which returned negative results. The province’s surveillance system remains functional, she noted, and proper hygiene practices such as frequent handwashing and wearing face masks in crowded places continue to be vital in preventing the spread of mpox and other respiratory illnesses. “We must stay vigilant and continue following health protocols to prevent the transmission of mpox and other diseases,” Dr. Quiñon added./PN Citation Citation of the article Sornito, I.

In time for the institutionalization of its feeding program, the Iloilo City Government is set to inaugurate early next month another high-impact project — the Iloilo City Uswag Nutrition Center. This project will serve as a strong reinforcement in the city's mission to combat malnutrition and ensure that every child in the community receives the nutrition they deserve. AJ PALCULLO/PN HEALTHIER FUTURE. In time for the institutionalization of its feeding program, the Iloilo City Government is set to inaugurate early next month another high-impact project — the Iloilo City Uswag Nutrition Center. This project will serve as a strong reinforcement in the city's mission to combat malnutrition and ensure that every child in the community receives the nutrition they deserve. AJ PALCULLO/PN ILOILO City – The Iloilo City Government has institutionalized its feeding program for public daycare learners across the city. This, following the passage of Food for Early Education Development (FEED) Ordinance, authored by Councilor Frances Grace Parcon, during the Sangguniang Panlungsod (SP) regular session on April 16. ComScore Observer “One of the main reasons for pushing this ordinance is to ensure the program is funded every year and no longer reliant on supplemental budgets,” she said. According to Parcon, the FEED program, which is mainly established to address undernutrition among children, will initially have a budget of P22 million sourced from the Special Education Fund (SEF). Mayor Jerry P. Treñas thanked the Iloilo City Council led by Vice Mayor Jeffrey Ganzon for passing the ordinance. “This marks a significant milestone in our ongoing fight against malnutrition among pre-school children. Next month, we will proudly inaugurate the Iloilo City Uswag Nutrition Center, a vital addition to our efforts in ensuring that every child will receive the nutrition they need to thrive. Ini tanan nga mga inisyatibo naton magapasiguro nga ang tagsa ka kabataan makabaton sang nutrisyon nga ila kinahanglan kag ang tagsa ka Ilonggo makabaton sang oportunidad nga makaangkon sang mas maayo nga panglawason kag mas malipayon nga pagpangabuhi,” said Treñas. For school year 2024-2025, there will be 10,099 daycare learners aged two to five years old enrolled in the Child Development Center (CDC) under the Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD) Program of the city who will benefit from the feeding program.Through the ordinance, a 10-month feeding program for children will be completed as a complementary initiative to the programs of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). Parcon also stated that the meals to be served will follow the menu cycle of the supplementary feeding program of the DSWD and will be prepared by the parents. The ordinance highlights the role of the City Agriculturist’s Office (CAO) alongside the City Social Welfare and Development Office (CSWDO) in including fresh milk and fresh milk-based food products in fortified meals and cycle menus as mandated by law, helping local farmers and producers. With the assistance of the CAO, establishment of vegetable gardens at schools, barangays and backyards are also encouraged The City Health Office (CHO), on its part, will provide micronutrient supplements, enforce iodized salt use per the ASIN Law, and conduct health exams like deworming and vaccination. The CHO will monitor, assess, and ensure compliance with program standards on food safety, quality, and participation. The new measure further provides that the city government, through the CHO, shall also maintain water and sanitation facilities, promote hygiene, and ensure safe food preparation for fortified meals. Moreover, a public health, nutrition, and values transformation campaign will complement the program to encourage an integrated approach to health and nutrition education. Participation of all city barangays through the implementation of a Barangay Nutrition Program, the organization and strengthening of Barangay Nutrition Committees and Barangay Nutrition Action Plan (BNAP), as well as of the private sector as partners are highly encouraged. WINNING THE WAR VS MALNUTRITION For the last four years, the malnutrition rate among pre-school children aged zero to 59 months old in Iloilo City has steadily declined, based on the results of the yearly conduct of Operation Timbang Plus (OPT). Data from the CHO-Nutrition Program showed a continuous downward trend in the prevalence of stunting, wasting, and overweight/obesity among the said age group from 2021 to 2024. From three percent in 2021, stunting or low height continuously dropped to 2.8 percent in 2022; 2.6 percent in 2023, to two percent this year. Wasting or low weight for age also declined from 1.3 percent in 2021; one percent in 2022; 0.9 percent in 2023; and 0.6 percent in 2024. Likewise, the city recorded a decreasing rate of overweight or obesity, from 2.9 percent in 2021; 2.3 percent in 2022; 1.8 percent in 2023; and 1.4 percent in 2024. According to CHO Nutritionist-Dietitian II Chlaerisse Montealto-Nieves, for the 2024 OPT conducted from January to March, they were able to cover 80 percent or 36,084 of the targeted 45,081 population of preschoolers. Specifically, results showed that 92.8 percent of the age group are normal in terms of their nutritional status while 533 are underweight, 227 are wasted, 717 are stunted and 504 are overweight or obese. For Nieves, this translates to the fact that the nutritional status of preschoolers in the city is continuously improving. Based on the OTP, only one-eighth of the total preschool children weighed were malnourished. Nieves attributed this to the strengthened and relentless advocacy program and services of the city on nutrition. “Since we started the implementation of our nutrition program, our campaign and advocacy on nutrition have not stopped,” Nieves added. She cited, among others, their continuous services especially in giving out micronutrient supplementation and vitamins and promoting and advocating breastfeeding as one of the important sources of nutrients for children. She also acknowledged the strong support extended by Mayor Treñas to CHO and its nutrition program. In fact, Nieves noted an increased budget for the city’s nutrition program. Another landmark project they look forward to is the soon-to-be operational Uswag Nutrition Center, in partnership with the Department of Science and Technology and Bombo Radyo Foundation Inc., wherein one of its components includes the establishment of a food production facility for complementary foods. The facility is set to be inaugurated early next month. “We will make our own nutri-buns especially for at-risk pregnant women and rice-mongo blends for the kids,” Nieves noted. The facility will also provide outpatient therapeutic care for malnourished kids in the city to improve their nutritional status, as well as a venue for trainings and seminars for barangay nutrition scholars, among others./PN Citation Citation of the article Sornito, I.

Theresa Ladiao -Thursday, April 10, 2025 Photo courtesy of Bong Go Photo courtesy of Bong Go ILOILO – Residents of Pavia, Iloilo can now access improved and more convenient healthcare services with the inauguration of a P11-million Super Health Center in Barangay Balabag. The facility, which includes P5 million worth of medical equipment, is designed to cater to the healthcare needs of the town’s growing population. It offers a wide range of primary and specialized medical services such as outpatient consultations, diagnostic testing including X-ray and ultrasound, a pharmacy, and an ambulatory surgical unit. ComScore Observer It also provides care in specialized fields such as ear, eye, nose, and throat (EENT) services and oncology. Telemedicine services will also be made available, making it easier for patients in remote or underserved areas to receive consultations without needing to travel far. “This project represents our commitment to improving the health and well-being of Paviahanons,” said Iloilo 2nd District’s Cong. Mike Gorriceta. “With this facility, we are ensuring that our constituents receive the medical attention they need without having to travel far. It’s a big step toward making healthcare services more efficient, accessible, and of higher quality.” Two resident doctors will be assigned to the center to ensure prompt and efficient service delivery. The center will also serve as a base for Barangay Health Workers (BHWs), strengthening frontline healthcare services in the municipality. For many residents, the new facility means less dependence on hospitals in Iloilo City and other neighboring towns for routine checkups and diagnostic tests. The ribbon-cutting ceremony on April 8 was attended by Sen. Bong Go, chair of the Senate Committee on Health; Gorriceta and wife Dr. Kathy Gorriceta; and Mayor Luigi Gorriceta./PN Citation Citation of the article Ladiao, M. T. ( 2025, April 10 ).

BALITA HALIN SA KAPITOLYO PHOTO ILOILO – To modernize public access to knowledge and information, the Iloilo provincial government officially launched its digital library and online resource platforms on April 8 — making historical records, government publications, and learning tools just a click away for Ilonggos. ComScore Observer The launch of the Iloilo Provincial Library & Archives’ online portals marks a significant milestone in the province’s push for digital transformation in public service, particularly in the fields of education, culture, and information dissemination. Held at the capitol lobby, the ceremony was attended by university librarians, students, department heads, and provincial government officials. The event also featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony led by Provincial Administrator Raul Banias and Provincial Library and Archives chief Allana Delgado. The digital platforms unveiled include: * Library Website (www.iloiloprovinciallibrary.com) – featuring news, updates, and general library information; * Digital Library (www.iloiloelibrary.com) – providing access to digitized government publications, Ilonggo cultural and historical materials; * Virtual Reference Services – enabling real-time online assistance from library staff; and * Bookshare – a specialized digital library that uses assistive technologies for readers with disabilities and reading challenges. “You no longer have to visit the physical library to access government publications or historical records. With just a gadget and an internet connection, learning is now at your fingertips,” said Banias, emphasizing the practical benefits of the new platforms. Although unable to attend, Gov. Arthur Defensor, Jr. was praised for championing educational initiatives. “Our governor is very passionate about education. We’re instilling in our youth the value and joy of reading,” Banias added. Delgado noted that the digital shift enables the library to widen its reach and support more users. “The library can now offer services to anyone, even those who cannot physically visit,” she said. Guests were encouraged to scan QR codes at the venue to instantly access the platforms. The event was also attended by Human Resource and Development Department head Renee Valencia, Public Information and Community Affairs Office assistant head Jose Nereo Lujan, and other Capitol staff.

Embrace your identity with pride and recognize the inherent strength that comes from your heritage,” says Indhay Cha. “Do not be afraid and do not be ashamed. Embrace your identity with pride and recognize the inherent strength that comes from your heritage,” says Indhay Cha. BY ROGER SIBAG JR. WHEN THE tribulations feel relentless, for some, it is easier to give up than to confront their circumstances and rise above them. It is easier to question their worth and blame themselves than to question the society that perpetuates the hardship — so the cycle never ends. Charlen Enario Panaguiton is the Community Affairs Officer of the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples. “The obstacles seemed overwhelming at times, and it was hard to envision a way forward amidst such adversity,” shared Charlen Enario Panaguiton, an Ati — one of the indigenous peoples in Panay Island — as she recalled the struggles that brought her into a seemingly endless cycle of despair, believing there was no way out. IN THE LOOP Growing up as an Ati, Indhay Cha, now 34, already felt different from the rest of her peers. Her dark complexion, one of the distinct physical qualities of an Ati, subjected her to “painful” discrimination when she was still a student, becoming one of the hindrances in her academic pursuit. Furthermore, poverty is one of the barriers she had to break. The earnings of her parents from farming and laundry work in Escalantera, San Joaquin, Iloilo were not enough, so there were times when she had to join her parents in charcoal burning to make ends meet. In third grade, she began working as a household helper enduring the loneliness of being away from her family for two years. “I was determined to make the most of every opportunity that came my way,” said Indhay Cha, who despite the things that affected her education graduated cum laude at the West Visayas State University with a Bachelor of Elementary Education – General Education degree in 2007. “First time ko tu, waay pa takon ka-sulod sa KFC kung waay ako gin-dara ni Ma’am Anne (It was my first time. I would have never gone to KFC if it weren’t for Ma’am Anne),” she mentioned narrating how her then cooperating teacher Dr. Antoniette Cortez let her experience one of her fondest memories during college. Dr. Cortez shared, “I used to bring them in restaurants. One day, while we were lining up at KFC to eat, she started crying, only to find out that she was crying because it was her first time eating at KFC.” EBB AND FLOW Thinking that she broke free from those demoralizing encounters, her one year of teaching experience brought her back to her childhood years when she was treated inferior because of her ethnicity. “One time, one of my students naghambal, ‘Maam itom itom sa imu, wala ka naga-paligo?’ Nagkadlaw lang ako (Once, a student sarcastically asked me, ‘Ma’am, why are you so dark? Do you not take baths?’ I just laughed it off),” she recounted. On top of this, she also felt that she was politicized in the application process for a position in an education government office which disappointed her. The combined weight of workplace discrimination and systemic challenges led her to a decision to quit teaching in 2015. “[My experiences] made me question my place and value in the profession. However, over time, I learned to channel these experiences into a drive for personal growth and resilience,” she revealed. THE RENEWAL The discrimination she faced at school and her workplace took a toll on her, but it also ignited her passion for ensuring that her fellow Indigenous people (IP) bear the same burdens she did because of simply who they are. Currently working as the Officer in Charge/ Community Affairs Officer I of the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP), she vowed to serve her fellow IPs by advocating for their rights, supporting their needs, and amplifying their voices. Despite reaching greater heights, she always gives back to her Ati community through organizing outreach programs. During one of their engagements, their team brought a photobooth so each family could have their own family picture — something she did not have growing up. Being in a much happier place after a “refreshing” change — having a new profession close to her heart and escaping the grip of poverty — she continued to use the lessons she learned to grow and empower others, especially her fellow IPs. “Do not be afraid and do not be ashamed. Embrace your identity with pride and recognize the inherent strength that comes from your heritage,” stated Indhay Cha as her message to her fellow IPs. She grew up thinking that the world was against her but she learned when to fight back and when to walk away. Though she cannot change the past, growing up as an IP in a less privileged family, Indhay Cha is determined to build a kinder, more just future for her two daughters as a single mother and for her fellow IPs and let them experience the opportunities she never had as a young girl. The cycle ends with her. (Silak Media) Citation Citation of the article Sibag, R. Jr. ( 2025, April 7 ). BREAKING THE CYCLE: An Ati Woman’s Journey from Discrimination to Empowerment.

Text Any textual data included in the document ‘LIMPYO ILOILO’: Weekly anti-dengue drive ordered in Iloilo Province By Ime Sornito -Monday, March 31, 2025 ILOILO – To strengthen and institutionalize the Department of Health (DOH)’s 4S strategy in dengue prevention — particularly the “search and destroy” component — Gov. Arthur Defensor Jr. has directed all 43 local government units (LGUs) in the province to implement a weekly clean-up drive called “Limpyo Iloilo, Kada Lunes nga Lihok Kontra Lamok” (Clean Iloilo, Every Monday Movement Against Mosquitoes). The directive was issued through Executive Order No. 29, Series of 2025, mandating the province-wide campaign every Monday at 4 p.m. as part of Iloilo’s ongoing dengue outbreak response. The initiative aims to eliminate mosquito breeding sites and reduce dengue transmission, especially during the rainy season. ComScore Observer From January 1 to March 22, the province recorded 1,128 dengue cases with seven deaths, marking a 78 percent increase compared to the same period last year, which had 635 cases and two deaths. Dengue is a viral infection transmitted to humans through the bite of infected female Aedes mosquitoes, particularly Aedes aegypti. These mosquitoes are daytime biters and often breed in clean, stagnant water found in containers such as buckets, drums, flower pots, tires, and clogged gutters. Symptoms usually appear four to 10 days after the mosquito bite and include sudden high fever, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, joint and muscle pain, skin rashes, nausea and vomiting, and mild bleeding (nose or gums, or easy bruising). Severe dengue can cause internal bleeding, organ failure, and can be fatal, particularly if not managed early. Under the executive order, the following key measures will be observed: * All LGUs are to mobilize their communities every Monday at 4 p.m. Sirens from government vehicles or church bells may be used to signal the start of activities. * All sectors, including government offices, schools, workplaces, business establishments, and households, are mandated to participate. * The clean-up operations will focus on removing mosquito breeding sites such as water-holding containers, including buckets, tires, flower pots, bottles, roofing gutters, drums, and tubs. * The City/Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Offices (C/MENRO) will lead the implementation through their Solid Waste Management Program. * The City/Municipal Health Offices (C/MHO), through their Health Education and Promotions Officers (HEPOs), will conduct information dissemination, while their Dengue Program Coordinators will coordinate efforts with local offices, schools, and barangays. * The Provincial School Board will ensure participation of schools through the City/Municipal Anti-Dengue Task Forces. The campaign also includes larval surveillance and entomological surveys, with mosquito larvae collected and analyzed to inform targeted interventions, including Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) or fogging. A follow-up survey will be conducted two weeks after any intervention. If mosquito populations remain high, additional control measures will be implemented. To ensure sustained community engagement, the program will be integrated into various government initiatives such as: * Women’s Month * Solid Waste Management Program * Semana sang Iloilo * Brigada Eskwela * Barangay Clean and Green Program * Cash-for-Work Programs Compliance will be monitored by the City/Municipal Anti-Dengue Task Forces, while Barangay Anti-Dengue Task Forces will oversee household-level participation and encourage full community involvement. Municipalities with the highest dengue cases (over 20) so far this year are San Joaquin (85), Oton (70 with one death), Leon ( 66), Cabatuan ( 51), Dumangas –(50), San Dionisio ( 47), Lambunao (40), Janiuay (37), Banate (36), Ajuy (35), Barotac Viejo (31), Pavia (31), Sara (30), Concepcion (30), Estancia (28), Pototan (28 with two deaths), Maasin (27), Tigbauan (27, 1 death), Calinog (26), Guimbal (26), Carles (23 with two deaths), Passi City (21), Barotac Nuevo (21), Miag-ao (21), Batad (21), and Santa Barbara (21).
