CITY, Surigao del Sur, July 16 (PIA) – The attack launched by the New People’s
Army (NPA) in Barangay Lindoy, Tago town, in Surigao del Sur at past 11:00 a.m.
on July 10 had nothing to do with the upcoming State of the Nation Address
(SONA) of President Rodrigo Duterte on July 23.
During the
incident, a member of the Civilian Armed Auxiliary (CAA) identified as Reymond
Besinga, who was part of the security team was killed, according to Cpt.
Francisco Garello, Jr., civil military operations (CMO) officer of the 36th
Infantry Battalion of the Philippine Army (PA) here.
It was
staged as the army was installing the water pump turned-over to Lindoy Farmers
Association under Project KaPALAYapaan on that day, the CMO added.
Cpt.
Garello explained that the terror group just wanted to sow fear in order to
make their presence felt as usual lest they might face an eventual meltdown
much sooner.
Reportedly,
the rebels had been extremely affected by the string of cases of new
surrenderers now logged at 35 in the area of responsibility (AOR) of the said
battalion.
Due to the
incident, everybody present had to scamper for safety, it was learned.
The army
was prompted to stop the ceremony that held in abeyance the turning over of a
farm tractor, commonly known as “tortol” among farm workers in the province.
Cpt.
Garello said that they were also quick to react by running after the three
perpetrators believed to be members of Platoon 8 of Guerilla Front (GF) 19B
under a certain Adel of the Northeastern Mindanao Regional Committee (NEMRC).

Trinidad immediately issued a statement condemning the terror acts. (Radyo

batch 1 of 2018 in this province recently participated on a workshop on
financial statements preparation.

have two modules left in order to complete the program. The mentees recently
attended the 8th Module: Entrepreneurial Accounting and Financial Management.
Gil
Pol Tan, a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and an accredited mentor of the
Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship (PCE) was tapped as the resource speaker
of this module.
Tan
emphasized to the mentees that in business "it is important that all transactions
shall be recorded; records should be consistent even how big or small the
business is, so owners can monitor their expenses and income and determine
their profits."
The
mentees were also oriented on the common documents used in business like receipts,
tickets, contracts, registrations, and other documents related to business.
The
flow of business recording was also demonstrated including journalizing
transactions, transferring it to individual ledgers of which Trial Balance can
be prepared.
Financial
statements like cash flow, balance sheet and income statement as emphasized
were aid of these records. Completeness of these records will also make them
confident in engaging with the regulatory government agencies.
During
the session, Marvin Jinayon, one of the mentees shared that he was very
thankful to the program.
"It
has been our dilemma as a businessman to prepare financial statements; we are
happy with this learning as we are now guided how to prepare our own," he
said. (DTI-Agusan del Sur/PIA-Agusan del Sur)
