Maternal mortality rate down by 50% in Surigao del Sur, says Gov. Pimentel
by Nida Grace B. Tranquilan
TANDAG CITY, Oct. 17 (PIA) -- Surigao del Sur Governor Johnny Pimentel said in a recent TV interview that the maternal mortality rate in Surigao del Sur has been reduced to 50 percent after a three-year implementation of the Women’s Health and Safe Motherhood (WHSM) program in the province.
Pimentel said the provincial government invested P50 million to upgrade hospitals and facilities, with municipal and city governments sharing operation expenses.
Several halfway houses near the birthing clinics were also established in selected municipalities where pregnant mothers can stay in a short period of time while waiting for their due date to give birth.
The Provincial Health Office also said it also undertook a campaign to inform the public about a provincial ordinance banning traditional healers or "hilot" from delivering a baby at home.
With these developments, the province was one of those who received the National Galing Pook Awards in the previous years. (PIA-Surigao del Sur)

The Provincial Hospital in Agusan del Norte recently celebrated its centennial year, marking years of proven and tested medical services especially to the needy.
The hospital started as Butuan Hospital in 1911 with just six beds. Later, the hospital was transferred to Brgy. Libertad and became a Provincial Hospital with a 100-bed capacity. It now provides services not only to patients from Agusan del Norte but also from other neighboring provinces.
The celebration kicked-off with a Fun Run last October 9, 2011 in Butuan City Sports Complex. Runners 7 years old and up from government employees, nurses, hospital staff, families and students from different schools participated in a 2 category race: the 3-kilometer and the 5-kilometer run. Prizes to Early Finishers and Raffle Prizes to Lucky Runners were given.
The following day, provincial officials and employees of the hospital held a thanksgiving mass and a motorcade.

by SPO4 Rey V. Poloyapoy
BUTUAN CITY, Oct. 17 (PIA) -- Elements of Butuan City Police Office (BCPO) recently seized an abandoned truckload of 66 suspected ‘hot logs’ of unknown species.
Initial investigation indicated that early Friday morning, PInsp. Rodolfo C. Ledesma, Officer of the Day, received a report from a concerned citizen of the presence of a suspicious truckload of sawn logs at Purok 6 Barangay Banza, this city.
Acting on the said report, PI Ledesma coordinated with Police Chief Inspector Ferdinand B. Dacillo, Company Commander, Butuan City Public Safety Company of BCPO.
PCI Dacillo immediately dispatched a team of PNP personnel to the said area and, while approaching, the responding lawmen saw from a distance a a slighted tilted Saddam-type truck beside the barangay road loaded with sawn logs.
They also noticed that some laborers were working to reload scattered fletches believed to have been accidentally unloaded when the truck tilted on one of its sides. But as the lawmen came closer to the truck, the workers scampered away and left nobody to answer verifications from them.
The police immediately coordinated with the Dept. of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Office at Baan Km. 3, which sent them personnel and equipment to load the scattered fletches and to bring the six-wheeler truck for proper disposition.
The truck and its cargoes were brought by the DENR to the Butuan City Police headquarters while waiting for any claimants. Further investigation is being conducted to determine its legality and to file possible charges to its owner if the situation warranted. (BCPO/PIA-Caraga)

BUTUAN CITY, Oktubre 17 (PIA) -- Tiniyak ng MalacaΓ±ang sa publiko kahapon na patuloy na binabantayan ng Department of Energy (DOE) ang presyo ng langis sa bansa.
Ayon kay Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Abigail Valte, ang pamahalaan ay patuloy na nagsisikap sa pagsusubaybay sa presyo ng langis at ang pag-asikaso ng mga deliverables na napagkasunduan sa huling pulong ng Pangulong Benigno S. Aquino III at ng iba’t ibang transport groups.
Binanggit din ni Valte sa Radyo ng Bayan na tinawag ng DOE ang atensyon ng mga kumpanya ng langis at tinanong kung bakit maliit ang kanilang ni-rollback sa presyo ng langis.
Samantala, nag-react si Valte nang magbabala at hinimok ni Secretary General George San Mateo ng Pinagkaisang Samahan ng Tsuper at Operator Nationwide (PISTON) si Pangulong Benigno S. Aquino III na gumawa ng paraan tungkol sa pagtaas ng presyo ng langis sa susunod na linggo na magdudulot rin ng pagtaas ng presyo sa gasoline sa halos isang piso at halos 30 sentimos na dagdag bawat isang litro ng krudo.
Dinagdag din ni San Mateo na mapipilitan silang maglunsad ng protesta kung mabibigo ang gobyerno sa pagtupad ng kanilang pangako na maimbistigahan ang pagtaas ng presyo ng langis at ang pagsusuri sa Oil Deregulation Law.
Bilang tugon, sinabi ni Valte na tinuloy lang ng gobyerno ang kanilang mga tungkulin upang mabawasan ang epekto ng pagtaas at pagbaba ng mga presyo at patuloy pa rin ang pakikipag-usap ng pamahalaan sa mga pinuno ng mga transport groups upang malaman kung ano pa ang maaring gawin at para magawan ng paraan ang problema tungkol sa pagtaas ng presyo ng langis.

“Tuloy naman po ‘yung efforts natin when it comes to monitoring the prices. If you remember recently, the DOE (Department of Energy) asked the oil companies kung bakit daw po maliit [lang] ‘yung [presyong] ni-rollback and the DOE called the attention of the oil companies [because of that] and we continue to monitor,” si Valte miingon sa Radyo ng Bayan.
Si Valte mi-reak sa pamahayag nga gihimo sa secretary general sa Pinagkaisang Samahan ng Tsuper at Operator Nationwide (PISTON) nga si George San Mateo, nga nag-awhag kang Pangulong Aquino sa pagpakabana mahitungod sa pagsaka sa presyo sa lana sunod semana nga mopasaka sa presyo sa mga gasolina nga moabot halos usa ka peso ug mga 30 sentimos alang sa krudo kada litro.

Si Valte usab mitubag sa sayo ng abiso gikan sa transport sektors, nga gi-deklarar ni San Mateo, nga basin sila mapugos sa paglusad og laing serye protesta kon ugaling ang gobyerno mapakyas sa pagtuman sa saad niini nga imbestigaran ang pagtaas sa mga presyo sa lana ug ripasohon ang Oil Deregulation Law.
“Tinutuloy lang naman po natin ‘yung ating mga ginagawa para mabawasan ang impact nitong mga pagtaas at pagbaba ng mga presyong ito at patuloy naman tayong nakikipag-usap doon sa mga lider ng mga transport groups para makita kung ano pa ang pwede pa nating ibang gawin para ma-address naman ang mga problema tungkol dito,” siya miingon.
