George Calvelo, ABS-CBN News MAYNILA — Inaasahang matatapos sa kalagitnaan ng taon ang kontrobersiyal na pagtatambak ng crushed dolomite sa Manila Bay, sabi ngayong Huwebes ni Environment Undersecretary Jonas Leones. Nasa 60 hanggang 70 porsiyento nang tapos ang pagtatambak ng dolomite sand sa Manila Bay, na posibleng matapos sa Hunyo o Hulyo, ani Leones na nag-inspeksiyon sa lugar nitong umaga ng Huwebes. Ipinaliwanag din ni Leones na ang paglalagay ng artificial white sand beach ay bahagi lamang ng beach nourishment project ng Department of Environment and Natural Resources sa Manila Bay, na ngayo'y 50 hanggang 60 porsiyento nang tapos. Ayon kay Leones, sa P389 milyong pondo para sa beach nourishment project, P23 milyon hanggang P28 milyon ang ginamit sa pagtatambak sa dolomite. "Contracted na kasi rin 'yan eh so may mga liabilities din ang bawat parties kung 'di makakapag-comply," ani Leones. Nauna nang sinabi ni Leones na 2019 pa inilaan ang pondo para sa "dolomite beach" project kaya hindi na puwedeng itigil. Binatikos noong Miyerkoles ng ilang grupo ang muling pagtatambak ng gobyerno ng dolomite ng Manila Bay sa kasagsagan ng pagsipa ng mga kaso ng COVID-19 sa bansa.

DENR Secretary Roy A. Cimatu said the arrest of the suspects is part of the department's renewed commitment to "conserve specific terrestrial and marine areas representative of the Philippine natural and cultural heritage for present and future generations" amid the pandemic. "We will continue to apprehend these illegal wildlife traders whether we have a pandemic or not. This is what the DENR can always assure the public," Cimatu said. He noted that illegal wildlife traders have become more brazen since the pandemic began, but assured that the DENR remains vigilant to protect the biodiversity. DENR’s Environmental Protection and Enforcement Task Force (EPETF) arrested Rendel Santos, 21, and Alvin Santos, 48, for illegal possession and selling of two (2) Umbrella cockatoos (Cacatua alba) at Barangay Pagala in Baliuag, Bulacan last May 2. The DENR-Community Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO) in Baliuag, Bulacan said the suspects were not issued a permit to transport the cockatoos. The Umbrella cockatoo is listed under Appendix II of the Convention of International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), which means that the species is not necessarily now threatened with extinction but that may become so unless trade is closely controlled.

Senate Convicts Chief Justice Corona
POLITICAL 7 Senate convicts Chief Justice Corona The Senate Impeachment Court, voting by an unexpectedly high 20-3, has convicted Chief Justice Renato Corona. The senators believe that the Chief Magistrate is guilty of culpable violation of the Constitution and betrayal of public trust for his failure to truthfully and fully disclose his assets in his Statement of Assets, Liabilities and Net Worth (SALN). It found Mr. Corona unfi t to stay on as the Chief Justice of the Republic of the Philippines. t is the first impeachment case in Philippine history to be successfully completed. I It was generally expected the vote would be close, it wasn’t. It was an overwhelming indictment of the Chief Justice. The character of the three that thought him innocent only further strengthened the indictment against him. What nailed him was his own admission of what was in his bank accounts. He argued the dollars were legitimately saved (using some strange fi nancial logic) but that wasn’t at issue. What was was that he hadn’t declared them. Claiming non-disclosure was allowed due to the confi dentiality of the Foreign Currency Deposit Act was a twisting of interpretation of a law unbecoming a lawyer, let alone the Chief Justice. Whist the “commingling” of peso deposits also defi ed that President Aquino’s fi xation on eradicating corruption reasonable belief.

Don’t let a “good” crisis go to waste: One-upmanship in local responses to the COVID-19 pandemic Julian Thomas B. Alvareza, Jahm Mae E. Guintoa,b, Joseph J. Capunob† aAsian Development Bank bUniversity of the Philippines Abstract Unlike in previous crises, the COVID-19 pandemic has wrought a crisis affecting all population groups, all economic sectors and all jurisdictions in the Philippines, as elsewhere. The impact of the COVID-19 vary across localities, however, partly due to differences in local government responses to the pandemic. Our objective is to examine the patterns in the types and timing of local responses among neighboring local government units (cities) for evidence of one- upmanship among their incumbent leaders (mayors). We assembled data for 25 selected cities and then grouped them into 28 neighborhood clusters. Using three indicators, we measure the immediacy, primacy and distinctiveness of the local responses within each cluster over the period March 2020-March 2021. Of the 28 clusters, we find in 19 (67.9 percent) evidence of one- upmanship consistent with the view that the type and timing of local responses are driven by mayors who wish to signal their talents and abilities.
