Senses and

Sensibilities

deeday a. cairo

here is no need for private citizens to own

guns. Guns are menace to people, to peace-

ful communities and society. The belief that

private people have to own a gun or guns to pro-

tect him or his family is a myth and is entirely un-

true. Owning one would either put him in danger

or would cause harm to others. This is because a

gun or any weapon for that matter is a pull to the

owner that makes his blood suddenly boil at the

least stirring.

If all people would live simply, peaceably in dig-

nity, there is no need to equip ones home or one-

self with deadly weapons. The Bible teaches man

to love others as they love themselves, a precept

that will make families, communities and societies,

peaceful. An armed person becomes hot-tempered,

daring and bold. What one could not do when he is

unarmed, he would boldly do when he is armed. It

is something that makes one audacious to the

point of being foolhardy, arrogant and easily

provoked.

After the stray bullet incident that claimed

a hapless 7 year old, the government must

do utmost effort to retrieve all unaccounted

guns from the citizenry. Authorities must beable to recover all lose rearms from the pub-

lic. Only those who are legally authorized to

carry rearms must be given the right to own

or carry one. There should be no exemptions

to the rule, even politicians and other power-

ful people must not be permitted to own such

weapons. It usually makes it easy for them

to form private armies and goons that lead

to unsavory incidents and deaths of innocent

people. Look at the Maguindanao Massacre

With the continued pro-

gress of the city, garbage and

wastes have increased. This

became literally unmanage-

able during the holidays with

the onset of bad weather and

the small number of garbage

collectors. It has become a

sad plight for the X-men of

Limpyo Tacloban who have

been patient and committed

in trying to present a cleancity to all visitors during the

holiday season with the rains

and inclement weather wors-

ened by the callous public

who seemed insensitive to the

rampant and irresponsible lit-

tering around the city. It was

also observed that garbage

collectors did not collect

the mountains of piled

garbage in subdivisions

and in the thoroughfares

in the City just because it

was raining and Auring

was threatening.

It seems that the

ooding experience of

people in the City of

Tacloban have not been

internalized well. People

continue to throw indis-

criminately their garbage

and wastes. The sad ex-

perience of ooding in

low-lying areas has not

brought lessons to be

learned. It seems people

do not care about their

surroundings. Mother

Nature is already scream-

ing its wrath on humans

yet no one seems to care;

not the families who turn

out so much wastes per

day, not the collectors

and nonetheless, not thebarangay ofcials.

Garbage disposal is

usually one of the indi-

cators of the status of

living or lifestyle of a

family. Families who

THE CALL OF NATHANAEL

The next day (Jesus) decided to go to Galilee, and he found Philip.And Jesus said to him, Follow me. Now Philip was from Bethsaida,the town of Andrew and Peter. Philip found Nathanael and told him,We have found the one about whom Moses wrote in the law, and alsothe prophets, Jesus son of Joseph, from Nazareth But Nathanael saidto him, Can anything good come from Nazareth? Philip said to him,Come and see. Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said ofhim, Here is a true Israelite. There is no duplicity in him. Nathanaelsaid to him, How do you know me? Jesus answered and said to him,Before Philip called you, I saw you under the g tree. Nathanaelanswered him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King ofIsrael. Jesus answered and said to him, Do you believe because I told

you that I saw you under the g tree? You will see greater things thanthis. And he said to him, Amen, amen, I say to you, you will see thesky opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on theSon of Man.

CHILD OF IGNORANCE

Prejudice, said Voltaire, is the reason of fools. Perhaps that iswhy we should never attempt to reason the prejudice out of anyone;since it was not reasoned into them, it can not be reasoned out! Preju-dice is the child of ignorance. Nearly all of us have suffered discrimi-nation at the hands of prejudiced people: because of our background,status, age, ethnic origin or simply the color of the skin. Jesus alsosuffered from people prejudiced against him. When told that the Mes-siah has come from Nazareth, Nathaniel quipped, Can anything goodcome out of Nazareth? (Jn1:46). A sure way for a person to shed hisor her prejudice is to come to Christ. He will teach us by word and ex-ample to love others, whoever they are, for he laid down hi life for us(1 Jn 3:16). A man was selling balloons. A child was intrigued as shewatched the balloon-man occasionally release a balloon and let it oatinto the sky to attract some attention to his wares. Every now and then,the balloons went up the sky blue balloon, red, green, white, black

and yellow. Excuse me, sir, said the child. How come, when you letgo of the balloons green, white, red, even black balloons they al-ways oat up into the sky? The man replied, Love, it is not the colorof the balloon that matters. It is the stuff inside. To be prejudices is tobe weak on truth. Let us get strong on the truth that we are all Godschildren.

The Sower

Glory year that was

for JCI-Tacloban

Enforcing...from page 4

It was yet another year

to behold - a great chal-

lenge for the incoming

president then to achieve

beyond expectation and

continue to give glory to

the pioneer local chapter of

the Junior Chamber Inter-

national (erstwhile Jaycee)

here in Eastern Visayas, the

JCI-Tacloban. The outgo-

ing president of the local

organization (LO) who is

to assume this development

year as Regional Vice-Pres-

ident (for EV) have had his

hands full with myriad of

concerns to face squarely

but resolutely. JCI Member

Dionisio Onie Balintong

Jr, a self-made youth leader

could proudly sing, I made

it through the rain.

One year was all he got

to lead the team, a groupwhose members come from

diversied family back-

ground, political and reli-

gious afliations and eco-

nomic strata but all of whom

are leaders possessing the

potentials of being the next

chapter president. In spite

of his limitations and the

constraints in the environ-

ment he moved around,

JCI Mem. Onie was indeed

a winner like the local or-

ganization he led in JCI de-

velopment year 2011-2012.

Rising above the adversi-ties, this unassuming com-

munity organizer and lov-

ing better-half of JCI Mem.

Katherine Llamas, deserves

to get up the ladder in his

JCI career as he continued

to keep the glory days for

JCI-Tacloban.

In recap, JCI-Tacloban

had achieved much in 2012,

as if continuing the legacy

made by the LO past presi-

dents, especially those who

are still actively supporting

the chapter and those who

eventually became mem-bers of the national board.

JCI-Tacloban earned these

distinct honors and awards

during the Area Confer-

ence in September last year,

namely Best International

Development Program

Kamiseta Para Kay Juan

(where imported oks-na-oks

clothes were distributed to

the indigent residents in a

remote Sitio in San Jose,

Tacloban City); Outstanding

JCI Local Organization of

the Year; and Rank 3 in the

JCI Performance Efciency

Awards (Visayas Area).

A month after, at the

JCI-Philippines National

Convention JCI-Tacloban

earned the Presidential

Award for Membership

Growth. This membership

growth could be counted as

kind of fulllment of the LO

in the challenge of Mayor

Alfred Romualdez during

the induction of 2012 set of

ofcers held in December

last year where the Mayor,

his wife Councilor Cristina,

and Philippine Drugs En-

forcement Agency formerRegional Director Julius

Navales were inducted as

associate members. But the

increase in quantity is be-

yond expectation, although

another hefty challenge to

the incoming set of ofcers

to be led by businesswoman

Peluchi Jasmine Senaca.

This year will be another

year to behold as Peluchi

takes her turn for one-year-

to-lead.

RVP Onie left this

thought as he bequeaths

the position to his succes-sor, Our involvement in

JCI will better prepare us to

accept the responsibility of

leadership. Each of you can

play a role by involvement

and sharing your ideas with

others. As the President of

the JCI-Tacloban, I congrat-

ulate all the JCI members

(for) our successes. (I) hope

that your current activities

will be enjoyable and wish

you all the very best for the

future.

JCI Mem. Annaliza

Elleson-Frazer, along-timemember of the organization,

had these inspiring points

to share: JCI Tacloban is

always creating a positive

change in the community,

even though there are some

problems and difculties of

the club but its still strong

to help and make many

projects that can help the

relationship to the commu-

nities. Also that can build

strong leadership. JCIP-

Tacloban won in the area

and national awards last

year and the previous year.

Each leader, as it is said,

has his peculiar style dis-

tinct from though appreci-

able like the others. Each

style has its way of bring-

ing home the bacon. This is

the thing unique and enjoy-

able with the JCI (Jaycees)

every member is allowed

to commit mistakes in his

undertakings but these er-

rors should serve as lessons

to learn for him to be better

with every failure. This is

how leaders are formed

by hands on training.

JCI is a worldwide or-

ganization of Young Active

Citizens Creating Positive

Change. As Frazer quoted,

We are a membership-

based nonprot organiza-

tion of 200,000 young peo-

ple ages 18 to 40 in 5,000

communities and more than

100 countries around the

world. Each JCI Member

shares the belief that in or-

der to create lasting positive

change, we must improveourselves and the world

around us. We seek target-

ed solutions to the unique

problems in our communi-

ties to build a better world,

creating global impact.

Pres. Noynoy Aquino,

The Outstanding Young

People awardee and senato-

riable Bambam Aquino, an-

other senatoriable and JCI-

Philippines past national

president Jayvee Ejercito,

actress Angelu De Leon,

multi-awarded TV Patrol

World news anchor TedFailon are among the digni-

ed members of JCI-Phil-

ippines. (This writer was a

for EV and recently con-

ferred the prestigious ti-

tle JCI Senator along with

past regional vice president

Rommel Verecio and past

lesteros).

date in Tacloban and for-

mer banker JCI Senator

Romy Francisco as well as

Palomino attributed to their

being Jaycees their success

in their chosen professions.

This is just among the bo-

nuses one could get in be-

ing an exemplary leader of

the JCI.

that led to the deaths

of innocent people.

Astray bullets dur-

ing the celebration

of the New Year also

claimed 40 deaths.

This would not have

happened if there

were no lose rearms

around.

The incident also

spells the inefciency

per strata of society are

known to have better

waste disposal capaci-

ties than those from the

lower strata. This is why,

it is usually 5observed

in subdivisions and other

residential compounds

who are better off and

who are not; or who are

educated and who are

not. Yet, families can-

not do well in this aspect

if the garbage collectors

will not do their job. It

is irritating to know that

garbage collectors are in

full force collecting gar-

bage during Christmas asthey also timed this for

asking gifts and money

taking advantage of the

holidays.

Christmas time is giv-

ing time but when certain

people only do good be-

cause of the extra they get

from families especially

in subdivisions during

the holidays, the spirit of

giving becomes a hollow

things as the love that

must come with it is sub-

stituted with resentment.

Garbage managementwill be more effective

and efcient if it will be

taken up at the barangay

level by barangay of-

cials. They cannot just

throw this concern to the

city government. They

must be able to discipline

their people, making sure

that each family properly

disposes their wastes re-

sponsibly. The barangay

ofcials must also see to

it that the garbage collec-

tors do their job regularly

or as scheduled otherwise

the barangay council can

sanction their inefcien-

cy. As is, the barangays

have shown a callous

stance even if they see

the situation in their own

front yards.

Mirroring...from page 4

of the government

to curb such acci-

dents. Sealing off of

guns prior to the rev-

elry did not prevent

deaths. This shows

that the move was not

effective. There are

lapses that should be

sealed and foolproof.

It is sad that some of

the victims of such

accidents were inno-

cent people, children

who have so much

life before them and

mothers or parents

who have families to

take care of.

One thing that

could be done to pre-

vent the same inci-

dents from happening

is to pass legislation

for gun ban among

people who have no

legal basis to carry or

own rearms. Sec-

ondly, existing laws

on the matter must be

amended to increasepenalties among peo-

ple who engage in

discriminate ring

of guns, explosives

and high-powered

recrackers. Thirdly,

there should be an

efcient reconnais-

sance of all rearms

in communities, ba-

rangays and organ-

ized groups.

as the governments onlymaritime training agencyattached to DOLE, will notsolely rely on the available

Like here in Region8, we have around 37,000OFWs but we cannot yettell how many are seaarersand their other pertinentrecords.

Puguon said that bycoming up with the neces-sary database, Filipino sea-arers will be better assessedor endorsed and that theirchances o employability be

more given attention.Also the database wouldmake the governments jobeasy in providing seaar-ers welare and support intimes o their needs.
