Allan Alfon and PMI Headed by Engr. Francis Chua. Nahisgutan sa maong mahinungdanong meeting ang finalization sa maong proyekto aron masugdan na kini sa labing daling panahon.   Usbon ko, mao ni ang game-changer nga proyekto ubos sa akong administrasyon kay gawas nga walay magawas nga bisan sintemo ang syudad, maka-income pa kita gikan niini ug makasulbad pa gyud kini sa atong traffic problem. Makatabang sab kini nga mas mapadali ang atong pagbyahe paingon sa airport. Ato sab napanglantawan nga mas makadala pa kini og daghang mga investors sa atong syudad. Makahatag sab ni og dakong dungog kanato kay kita lang ang nag-inusarang syudad sa Visayas ug Mindanao nga makapahigayon sa susamang proyekto nga gawas sa Metro Manila.   Maong congratulations kanatong tanan, mga Oponganon!

    Profiling of beneficiaries of TUPAD, or “Tulong Pangkabuhayan Alang sa mga Displaced” workers.

    PRESS RELEASE The Office of Congresswoman Cindi King-Chan conducted a profiling of beneficiaries of TUPAD, or “Tulong Pangkabuhayan Alang sa mga Displaced” workers. The profiling activities, held at the City Sports Gym on Friday, are intended for the P1 million fund allocation for TUPAD beneficiaries through the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE). Julieta Soon, assistant program coordinator, said each TUPAD beneficiary will work for 10 days in her barangay and will receive a total of P4,680, or P468 daily. She said the daily rate was increased from the previous P435 per day due to the rising cost of basic commodities. The P1 million is Tingog Partylist fund allocation, coursed through the Alangang Tingog Center (ATC) here in the city, with the assistance of the staff of Lapu-Lapu City Lone District Representative, Cong. Cindi King-Chan. Today, TUPAD staff processed 204 female beneficiaries. Soon, after processing their documents, the papers will be sent to DOLE. The labor department will then call qualified beneficiaries for orientation and processing of their insurance. Beneficiaries will then be sent to work in their assigned areas to plant and clean the streets. They will then receive their pay after 10 days of work. PIO

    Lapu-Lapu City Public Market Hearing

    PRESS RELEASE Lapu-Lapu City held a public hearing last Tuesday on the proposed rate increase on market stall rentals, and it went smoothly. But market sellers complained of the rate increase but were evasive when Mayor Junard "Ahong" Chan asked then, revealing their profit, or "ginansiya". Market sellers have enjoyed a wide profit margin through the years for their 21-year-old stall rental rates. Fish vendors, for example, enjoy their daily profit but only pay a meager P100 monthly rental, plus P10 for a full bañera fish or P5 for a half-filled bañera. They are complaining about the proposed rent rate increase of P150 per day. Meat vendors pay only P150 per month in rental, which will be increased in the proposed rate to P150 per day. Lapu-Lapu City Public Market has a total of 701 stalls and 400 to 500 ambulant vendors, making it one of the city’s revenue earners. But the mayor reasoned out that the city government will be at a loss if it does not increase its stall rental rates. "Kung alkase pirmi ang gobyerno, aw, manirado na lang ta o pasirad-an ta sa DENR kay wa tay tarong nga STP," he told the vendors. Being a highly urbanized city (HUC), Mayor Chan said it is incumbent upon the city to develop their market facility and have a functional sewage treatment plant (STP). STP is the facility that regulates market waste and odor. And the current STP nowadays costs millions. The mayor added that the high cost of maintaining a public market prompted their neighboring cities to privatize their market or let a private company manage the facility. Then the city just collects revenues from this managing company. During the public hearing, the majority of vendors aired their gripes, saying they incurred huge losses during lockdown and were devastated by Typhoon Odette. They are just now slowly making headway in their business, but they are worried about this proposed rate increase. Mayor Chan told them that if they were at a loss, they should have ceased operating years ago and sold their stall rights because many are waiting to acquire them. But stall owners did not sell their rights. Apparently they are having the heyday of the old, 21-year-old rental rates and raking in big profits. Mayor, Vice Mayor Celsie Sitoy, and city councilors listened to stall occupants who each gave their stall rate counter proposal during last Tuesday’s public hearing. This is the proposed ordinance of Councilors Climaco Tatoy Jr. and Annabeth Cuizon, which is an ordinance amending City Ordinance No. 029-2007, "The Revised Market Code of 2007 of the City of Lapu-Lapu.

Pagkahuman sa lima ka adlaw, na-rescue na gyud nato ang usa ka Haponesa nga anaa sa kilid sa dalan sa Mustang, Brgy Pusok. Lima ka adlaw nga kuyog ang iyang inahan nga mauwanan o mainitan kay dili siya gusto nga mohawa sa iyang nahimutangan. Lima sab ka adlaw nga wala silay tarung nga kaon ug pahuway pero karon ato na sila gibutang og usa ka luwas nga pinuy-anan.   Sa pila sab ka tawo nga misuway sa pagkombinsir kanila, malipayon kaayu ko nga na-rescue na gyud nato sila. Ato na sab na-storya ang Japanese Consul sa ilang kahimtang ug naghatag sab og pagtugot kanato nga ibutang sila sa komportable ug luwas nga lugar. Gani, nagpasalamat sila sa atong paningkamot ug atong pagpakabana sa mag-ina.
