Information has recently becn received from various sources to the effect that, through agents and printed circulars, the statement is being circulated that the Bacteriol. physiolog. Institut (Piorkowski Laboratories), Berlin, Germany, has been licensed by the Treasury Department for the importation and sale in interstate traffic of "turtle tuberculin." These statements seem to emanate from so- called Piorkowski Laboratories, located, or represented as about to be located, in various cities in this country. This statement is contrary to fact. After an inspection of the establishment by a representative of the Treasury Department and an examination of samples of the products at the Hygienic Labora- tory of the Public I-lealth Service, the Bacteriol. physiolog. Institut (Piorkowski Laboratories), Berlin, Germany, was refused a license by the Treasury Department for the importation and sale of their products in interstate traffic. Under the act approved July 1, 1902, regulating the sale of viruses, serums, toxins, and analogous products in interstate traffic, such preparations applicable to the prevention an(d cure of diseases of man may be imported without license, provi(led they are not sold or intended for sale but for scientific experiments. The above-mentioned act requires that each package of virus, seruni, toxin, antitoxin, or analogous product must be plainly marked- with the proper name of the article contained therein, and the name, address, and license number of the manufacturer. Since this provision is strictly enforced, no difficulty should be experienced by anyone in determining whether a particular product has been propagated in a licensed establishment.

The number already represents almost 80 percent of the 45.2 million seedlings targeted for the entire year under the government’s flagship reforestation program, DENR Secretary Roy Cimatu said in a media release, citing a report from the Forest Management Bureau (FMB). “This speaks well of how the DENR and its partners have carried out the ENGP in the face of challenges and constraints created by the pandemic,” Cimatu said. With this development, Cimatu said, the DENR is “on track” with its ENGP seedling production “just in time for planting this rainy season.” In its report, the FMB said the seedling production covers both plantation species and indigenous species used for rehabilitation of denuded areas in watershed, mangrove and protected areas. It also includes commodity species used for the establishment of agroforestry plantations. As of July 9, indigenous and plantation seedlings had reached 20 million; bamboo, 3.4 million; agroforestry, 2.98 million; fruit trees, 1.2 million; fuelwood, 796,600; rubber, 131,775; nipa, 65,000; and Ilang-ilang, 50,000.

    Philippines Pampanga Delta Development Project, Flood Control Component (1) External Evaluator: Taro Tsubugo Field Survey: November 2004 1. Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Baguio Manila Project site Cebu City Philippines Davao Project site location map A newly-developed dike road 1.1 Background The Philippines experiences severe damages from flooding and landslides caused by tropical storms. Although the government attaches importance to flood control projects, constraint on the fiscal budget have hampered the implementation of these projects. The lower basin of the Pampanga River is one of the areas most frequently affected by flooding. In the Pampanga Delta, which is consisted of swampy lowland and the mouth areas of the Pampanga River, typhoons frequently resulted in flooding and caused considerable damage to the farming and fishing industry and to public and private property. With the delta being at 0-9m above sea level, the Pampanga River has limited flow capacity. Flood control projects undertaken on the Pampanga River can date back to 1939. As the development potential (such as aquaculture) of the lower basin areas drew attentions in more recent years, the necessity of flood controls at the west of Sulipan, in particular, had increased. 1.2 Objectives This project’s objective was to enhance flood controls on the lower basins of the Pampanga River in Central Luzon, an area prone to perennial flooding, by implementing river improvement works, thereby contributing to improvements in living standards and to regional economic growth. 1.3 Borrower/Executing Agency Government of the Philippine Republic/Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) 1 1.4 Outline of Loan Agreement Loan Amount/Disbursed Amount 8,634 million yen/7,537 million yen Exchange of Notes/Loan Agreement October 1989/February 1990 Terms and Conditions Interest Rate 2.7% Repayment Date (Grace Period) 30 years (10 years) Procurement General untied (Consultant component: partially untied) Final Disbursement Date December 2001 Contractors Kawasho Corporation, Hanil Development Co., Ltd.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The owing explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

In today’s Beat COVID-19 Virtual Presser, Health Undersecretary Dr. Maria Rosario Singh-Vergeire discussed with Bases Conversion and Development Authority President and CEO Vince Dizon how the government is improving the country’s isolation measures as part of its national response against COVID-19. “Itong virus na ito ay bagong-bago, unang-una wala siyang bakuna, at kung hindi tayo mag-iingat madali tayong mahahawa. Mabilis lumipat from one person to another,” said Dizon, who is also the Deputy Chief Implementer of the National Action Plan Against COVID-19. “At pag nalaman po natin kung sino ang positibo dito sa virus na ito ay kailangan po natin silang i-isolate, kailangan po natin silang ihiwalay kahit na po ito’y mahirap at ito po’y masakit sa loob dahil ayaw natin mahiwalay sa ating mga kamag-anak,” he added. Quarantine facilities are designed to make sure potential COVID-19 carriers are kept separate from the public until they complete the mandatory 14-day quarantine period and be cleared to return home.
