Quinto is currently (2020) working at Central Philippine Union Conference in Cebu City, Philippines. He is the coordinator for the Integrated Evangelism Lifestyle in Nurturing, Discipleship, and Reclamation program of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Central Philippines. Nadeth Quinto is currently working at Central Philippine Union Conference in Cebu City, Philippines. She is the MIZPAH associate editor and the secretary for Communication, PARL and Hope Channel Department of Central Philippine Union Conference. The Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission of the Central Philippine Union was established in 1997. Territory and Statistics Territory: Negros Oriental Province and Siquijor Province Churches: 140 Members: 17,494 Population: 1,665,9611 Population/Member Ratio: 95:1 Origin of Adventist Work in the Territory of the Mission The Adventist message reached Negros Oriental in 1924 through the work of the missionaries R. E. Stewart and Dr. and Mrs. Carlos Fattebert. These missionaries worked out of Cebu City, where the East Visayan Mission (now Central Visayan Conference) was located. Other foreign missionaries who came were Hugh Munin, E. G. Douglas, W. B. Riffel, E. N. Logenbeal, and M. C. Warren. They worked hard, and the first few converts in Cebu helped them.2 These early converts were the families of G. M. Arrogante3 and Mamerto G. Yorac.4 The first congregation was organized in 1925 at Mr. Tiburcio Elumir’s residence in the town of Zamboanguita, about 20 kilometers (about 12.5 miles) south of Dumaguete. Elumir’s three daughters, Candida, Juana, and Dorotea, were converted, and later on, their husbands followed. A year later, the Siaton Seventh-day Adventist Church in the southern part of Zamboanguita was organized under the active leadership of the Tayco family. In 1926, Dumaguete City Church was also organized, and the nucleus of the church were the families of Anecito Villamil, Eugenio Dicen, Dorotea Elumir Imperial, and the Alonsos. Then a colporteur spread the gospel to the north, to the towns of Tanjay and Jimalalud.5 A zealot in the Advent movement and the Sabbath truth, he became more of an evangelist than a colporteur. At the house of Mr. Juan Teves at Barangay Polopantao, Jimalalud, he held a branch Sabbath School and Bible studies.6 Mr. Juan Teves and his wife, Saula, and their three children, Herberta, Maria Corazon, and Leodegario, were converted together with their spouses,7 Aurelio Fabruada, Generoso Vidal, and Nazaria Deniega.8 Soon after, the gospel reached Guihulngan, 20 kilometers (about 14.5 miles) from Jimalalud. Pedro Villegas, his wife, Asuncion, and the Yap family became the forerunners there. The message of Adventism moved northward to Barangay Bagawines in Vallehermoso, to Canlaon, and other barangays (smallest administrative division in the Philippines) along the boundary of Oriental and Occidental Negros. By then, Dumaguete City had become the hub of the gospel. Its influential radio stations spread across the sea toward the island of Siquijor, to the southern municipalities of Negros Oriental, to the mountain of Bais City, to Mabinay town, and to all the municipalities of the province. Like mushrooms, churches grew until there were 82 organized churches and 57 companies. There were 10 pastoral districts from Canlaon City in the north, to Basay in the south, and across the sea to the province of Siquijor. Meanwhile, God’s work continued moving forward all over Visayas and Mindanao under the direction of the Holy Spirit. It grew so much that several missions were created.9 On January 1, 1962, Negros Mission was organized for the provinces of Negros Occidental, Negros Oriental, and the island of Siquijor.10 On June 11, 1996, the Negros Mission Executive Committee sent a letter to the Asia Pacific Division through the Central Philippine Union Conference requesting a new mission. The excellent progress of the work in this part of the field created a great need for the organization of a new mission in Oriental Negros.11 Negros Oriental and Siquijor Provinces were far from the conference headquarters at Taculing, Bacolod City, and this distance made the administration and supervision appear cumbersome and limited in scope. Almost all the brethren felt and believed that there was a need for a new mission that could be easily contacted and reached by administrators and departmental men of the mission. The dialect spoken by the Negros Oriental people and the people of Siquijor was identical—Cebuan—thus making communication smooth and understandable. Therefore, the Asia-Pacific Division was asked to approve the creation and organization of the Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission, with an office at Barangay Tubtubon, Sibulan, Negros Oriental, Philippines, 6201.12 Organizational History of Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission On July 31, 1996, a special executive committee of the Central Philippine Union Conference (CPUC) created a survey team to look into the proposed Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission in harmony with the counsel of the Asia- Pacific Division. The survey team was composed of A. C. Gulfan Jr., chairman; J. M. Toledanes, secretary; T. R. dele Calzada, H. V. Gayares, A. O. Neri, L. J. Estores, J. M. Wales, G. B. Buhat, and A. P. Sacay. It was further voted that the three local conference officers together with the Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission Development Committee members be invited to face the said commission on August 13, 1996, at Dumaguete City, before the CPUC Executive Committee meeting on August 20, 1996.13 On August 13, 1996, the Negros Conference Executive Committee approved and endorsed to the CPUC Executive Committee that the proposed Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission had manifested its capability and maturity as indicated in the documents they submitted. The survey team met and was convinced that the proposed new mission was ready to be recognized as a separate entity. The CPUC Executive Committee accepted the endorsement of the CPUC Administrative Committee that the Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission proposal be submitted to the Asia-Pacific Division for recognition as a separate mission if the Negros Conference was able to reach 100 percent working capital as recommended by the Asia-Pacific Division.14 The organization of Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission was put on record during the CPUC Executive Committee Meeting on April 2-9, 1997.15 During the CPUC Executive Committee meeting on April 2, 1997, Pastor Eliseo P. Doble was appointed as the first president of Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission, and Ricardo J. Estores became the secretary-treasurer, effective on May 1, 1997.16 On April 3, 1997, the first Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission Executive Committee voted that the inauguration and thanksgiving of Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission should take place on May 1, 1997, at Tubtubon, Sibulan, Negros Oriental.17Negros Mission was able to deliver a child by the name Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission (NSM). The registered name of this mission was taken from the scope of her territory, which comprises the whole provinces of Negros Oriental and Siquijor Island.18 The Province of Negros Oriental has 19 municipalities and 6 cities,19 while Siquijor Island province has 6 municipalities.20 As of June 30, 2018, Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission has 17,494 members worshipping God in 140 churches. The Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission headquarters is located at Tubtubon, Sibulan, Negros Oriental, Philippines/P.O. Box 227 Dumaguete City 6200 Philippines.21 In 2017, Negros Oriental-Siquijor Mission celebrated its 20th anniversary. This mission is determined to move forward with greater vision to meet the challenge of evangelizing unentered towns and barangays in its territory.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Negros Oriental Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc. (NOCCI), being the only recognized voice of business in the Province of Negros Oriental, Philippines, developed the TIP PROJECT or the TRADE TOURISM and INVESTMENT PROMOTION ("TIP" for short) PROJECT to support its mission in conducting trade, tourism and investment promotion, business development activities and enhancement of the business environment of the Province of Negros Oriental. The TIP Project was conceptualized during the last quarter of 2013 and was launched in January, 2014 as the banner project of the Chamber to support its new advocacy for inclusive growth and local economic development through job creation and investment promotion. The banner project was coined from the word “tip” - which means giving sound business advice or sharing relevant information and expertise to all investors, businessmen, local government officials and development partners. The TIP Project was also conceptualized to highlight the significant role and contribution of NOCCI as a champion for local economic development and as a banner project of the Chamber to celebrate its Silver 25th Anniversary by December, 2016. For two years, from January, 2015 to December, 2016, NOCCI worked closely with its various partners in local economic development like the Provincial Government, Local Government Units (LGUs), National Government Agencies (NGAs), Non- Government Organizations (NGOs), Industry Associations and international funding agencies in implementing its various job creation programs and investment promotion activities to market Negros Oriental as an ideal investment/business destination for tourism, retirement, retail, business process outsourcing, power/energy and agro-industrial projects.

  • The Panay-Guimaras-Negros Bridge Project: an Assessment
    TSSP 22nd Annual Conference o f the Transportation Science Society of the Philippines 201 4 Iloilo City, Philippines, 12 Sept 2014 The Panay-Guimaras-Negros Bridge Project: An Assessment Nicanor R. ROXAS, Jr. Alexis M. FILLONE Graduate Student Associate Professor Civil Engineering Department Civil Engineering Department De La Salle University De La Salle University 2401 Taft Avenue, Manila 2401 Taft Avenue, Manila E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Studies have shown that enormous transportation infrastructure projects recurrently underperform when actual cost and benefits are compared to the forecasts utilized in project proposals. The projected costs have been shown to be commonly underestimated while forecasted demand, overestimated. In this research, an ambitious project in the Western Visayas Region is assessed. The Panay-Guimaras-Negros Bridge Project intends to connect the islands via inter-island bridges that span a length of approximately 23 km. In this study, the PGN project is placed in the distribution of previously completed projects of the same scale and lessons are drawn from their experience. Moreover, Reference Class Forecasting is tackled in order to improve risk assessment in transportation infrastructure project proposals. If project proponents wish to reduce the level of risk from 50% to 20%, then a 12.4 billion to 29.7 billion Peso increase in the proposed budget should be added in order to avoid cost overrun. Key words : Forecast Inaccuracies, Reference Class Forecasting, Cost Underestimation 1. INTRODUCTION The Philippines is a developing country which needs to make an efficient use of its resources. According to the Department of Budget and Management of the Philippine government, a total of 213.5 billion pesos or approximately 10% of the 2.265 trillion 2014 national budget is allocated to the Department of Public Works and Highways.

    Provincial and Regional Institutions in the Philippines: An Essential Element in Coastal Resource Management and Marine Conservation Miriam C. Balgos* and Cesario R. Pagdilao** A Background Paper for the Workshop on Institutional Frameworks for Community Based-Coastal Resources Management and Marine Conservation in the Visayas Region, Leyte, Philippines March 14-15, 2002 URI Bay Campus, South Ferry Road, Narragansett, RI 02882 USA Phone: (401) 874-6224 Fax: (401) 789-4670 Website: http://crc.uri.edu * Graduate College of Marine Studies, University of Delaware ** Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development 1 I. Introduction A. Historical background and perspective The Philippines has more than two decades of experience in coastal resources management (CRM) and marine conservation, particularly in community-based initiatives, from which other countries in the region are drawing. However, a reservoir of lessons learned have not as yet been applied and translated significantly into improved environmental status nor to an uplifted socio-economic status of poor coastal communities. It has been reported that only 19% of community-based coastal resources management programs and projects implemented between 1984 and 1994 were successful (Pomeroy and Carlos 1997). These findings lead to the question of what is causing this low rate of success. Is there a need for a shift in the CRM model being followed? Or should these projects and programs simply need more time to mature and produce tangible results? A project implemented by the University of Rhode Island Coastal Resources Center looked at the contextual and intervention factors that affect the success of community-based marine protected areas (MPAs) in the Philippines which are a common or oftentimes the major intervention of coastal management programs.
