PORTSIDE CLUB BULLETIN PORTSIDE CLUB BULLETIN PORTSIDE CLUB BULLETIN RCCPC CREDO We believe we are the Rotary Club composed of business persons and professionals who encourage and foster the ideals of service of Rotary International.

PORTSIDE CLUB BULLETIN President’s Message – February 2020 Today is the fiesta of Catmon, Cebu and Dalaguete, Cebu. Also, today in 1888, Birth in Compostela, Cebu, of Escolastico Morre (1888-1921), known as “Errone”, editor and writer.

Juan Climaco is placed in charge of the war preparations. Welcome everyone to our Fellowship Meeting tonight! First and foremost, my appreciation to PP Marcy Koike for the generous assistance and full support in accommodating our Japanese visitors/guests, our sister club, RC Oita Minami. プッシーロェフ会議！ そこうよへ I hope everyone is on red shirt since this is our Pre-Valentine’s Day celebration. Let’s enjoy ourselves and welcoming our Japanese visitors/guests at the same time. Stay put until our fellowship time as we will likewise acknowledge our Birthday and Anniversary celebrators! Water Drilling Project visitations RC Oita Minami, through the guidance of PP Marcy Koike has scheduled a simple visit to our Water Drilling Project sites at Tejero Elementary School (Cebu City), Lawaan Elementary School (Talisay City) and Naga Central Elementary School (Naga City Cebu). Let us here some more updates on this tonight. Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) As previously mentioned in our last Portside Bulletin issue, we need to be updated as Rotarian and share correct information to our colleagues and countrymen. World Health Organization (W.H.O.) update as of 8 February 2020, there no new countries reported cases of 2019-nCoV in the past 24 hours. Situation in numbers: total and new cases in last 24 hours. Globally there are already 34,886 confirmed (3,419 new). China – 34,598 confirmed (3,401 new), 723 deaths (86 new). Outside of China – 288 confirmed (18 new), 24 countries, 1 death. Countries, territories or areas with reported confirmed cases of 2019-nCov, as of 8 February 2020 is found at the bottom of this article/message. W.H.O. RECOMMENDATIONS AND ADVICE FOR THE PUBLIC: During previous outbreaks due to other coronavirus (Middle-East Respiratory Syndrome PORTSIDE CLUB BULLETIN (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), human-to-human transmission occurred through droplets, contact and fomites, suggesting that the transmission mode of the 2019-nCoV can be similar. The basic principles to reduce the general risk of transmission of acute respiratory infections include the following: • Avoiding close contact with people suffering from acute respiratory infections. • Frequent hand-washing, especially after direct contact with ill people or their environment. • Avoiding unprotected contact with farm or wild animals. • People with symptoms of acute respiratory infection should practice cough etiquette (maintain distance, cover coughs and sneezes with disposable tissues or clothing, and wash hands). • Within health care facilities, enhance standard infection prevention and control practices in hospitals, especially in emergency departments. District Conference 2020 Another reminder for our incoming District Conference (DisCon) 2020, which is already fast-approaching. Our 2020 DisCon is held this coming March 5 – 7, 2020 (Thur to Sat) at Cebu Grand Convention Center, Banilad, Cebu City. Since the “promo” low DisCon cost already ended last January 31, 2020, registration is now back to its regular rate at Php6,000.00. You may deposit your payment to BPI Account No. 9121-0074-84 (Robinsons Galleria), RC CEBU WEST ROTARIANS INC. Once done, please write your name on the deposit slip and send it to our Club Secretary (Jensen), Club Treasurer (John) or our Club Clerk (Sharich). As already mentioned from our last Portside Bulletin issues, our Club is given the responsibility to host the Golf and Bowling tournaments on March 4, 2020 (a day before the actual DisCon day). For the Golf Tournament (“Paul Harris Cup”), IPP Rodien already finalized the venue at Cebu Country Club and registration is set at Php4,000 per player (cost inclusive of shared cart, green fees, giveaways, dinner and raffles). There is a prize for Hole-In-One sponsored by Phil. Span Asia Carrier Corp. For the Bowling Tournament (same day of the Golf Tournament), since there are only two teams competing each other – the Visayas and Mindanao, each team will be composed of ten (10) players. The tournament will be held at SM Cebu, at 6:00 PM. Tentative registration cost is Php1,000 per player. Winner is based on the total highest score for a team. So, this is a showdown between Visayas against Mindanao Rotarian bowlers. The Bowling Committee (c/o PP Sam Tiu and PP Rey Sabay) will give more updates within the week especially the guidelines and mechanics of the tournament. PORTSIDE CLUB BULLETIN Meeting Make-Up Club members who are unable to attend regular Rotary meeting, please note of a ‘millennial’ way of having Make-up, which already tested by some of us - doing it online thru Rotary E-Club of the West –website address at: https://www.rotaryeclubwest.org/make-up/. In doing “Make-Up” online, it is just as simple as browsing 30 minutes or more; 1.) view, read or watch some materials (the content of your choice provided by the e-Club website); 2.) complete & fill-out the “Make Up” Submission Form; and 3.) received an email confirmation within seconds which you can forward to our Club Secretary. By doing this, you can greatly help increasing our Club’s attendance percentage that will be reported monthly to our District.

The recent earthquakes that hit Cebu and Bohol has claimed scores of lives have caused untold damages to homes, buildings and even old churches that we, Cebuanos and Boholanos have cherished as part of our heritage.

  • 3 Ecotourism in the Islands
    3│ Ecotourism in the Islands Ecotourism Sites & Activities Bantayan Island, the Camotes Group of Islands and President Carlos P. Garcia Island have a diverse range of high quality natural and man-made attractions, which are ideal for ecotourism development. Its attractions include an extensive system of protected areas such as coral reefs, marine parks and mangrove forests; fine white sand beaches; coves; caves; waterfalls, and; historical sites that could easily be packaged into viable tourism products. At present, tourism activities are limited to the following: rest & relaxation, nature tours, trekking, biking, homestay, and festival celebration. Natural Resource Base The islands' natural resource base comprises mostly of marine and coastal resources, such as marine sanctuaries, coral reserves, beaches, seascapes, caves and mangrove areas. Measures to protect some of the potential ecotourism sites such as the marine protected areas are already in place. Local legislations such as the Municipal Fisheries and Coastal Resource Management Code and the Clean and Green Ordinance are some of the local initiatives taken to protect the coastal resources of the islands. A number of task forces have also been created to ensure the protection of the marine sanctuaries. There is a need though to strengthen some of the measures. Even with the presence of the bodies, violations threaten these protected areas. Marine Protected Areas. The islands boast of successfully-implemented and managed marine protected areas. By virtue of enacted ordinances, the islands have established 56 marine sanctuaries/protected areas, covering more than 1,000 hectares. Almost half (25) of the marine protected areas are found in Bantayan Island.

  • How Might We Make Potable Water Accessible to Far-Flung Communities?
    How might we make potable water accessible to far-fung communities? A challenge brief on the water problem in Sogod, Philippines Social Innovation Challenge | World Vision challenge.worldvision.ca Social Innovation Challenge 2019 l Water 1. INTRODUCTION The Challenge The town of Sogod is a 4th class municipality located in the Province of Cebu which is the home to 34,059 people with a growth rate of 1.89%. Cebu has consistently been among the top 12 provinces with the highest share of poor families in the entire country1. Families in the remote and highland villages of Sogod lack access to clean and safe water. Four years ago, Typhoon Haiyan, one the largest natural disasters in Phillipines history devastated Sogod. It caused massive destruction to houses, crops, livestock and even water sources and further impeded access to save water. Since the typhoon, the cost of transporting water is still a huge challenge for certain households. Consequentially, children in the families still have to walk long distances to fetch and carry water, sacrificing their education and numerous other opportunity costs. The population in Sogod spends up to 18% of their monthly family budget on water, which is easily 15x more than what communities are paying in neighboring communities. This high portion of income dedicated to water results in parents deprioritizing important factors such as proper nutrition for their families and children. Further, the inability of the villagers to obtain safe and potable water poses a significant health risk, especially to children. For most families that fall well below the poverty, the impact on household income is unimaginable and often poor families end up obtaining water from unsafe, infected sources.

  • 96 Some Pertinent Facts About Cebu and Its Leprosy Problem. CEBU Is
    96 LEPROSY REVIEW. Some Pertinent Facts about Cebu and its Leprosy Problem. JOSE RODRIGUEZ, Geography. EBU is an elongated island barely 36 kilometres at Cits widest portion, with a length of 223 kilometres, and a total area of 4,836 square kilometres. The province comprises a considerable number of minor islands, of which only 14 have an area of one square mile or more. The main­ land lies between 123°-17'-34/1 and 124°-4'-4/1 East Longi­ tude, 9°-24'-46/1 and IP-17'-ll/l North Latitude. The highest peak is Mt. Uling, 1,013 metres, located at the central part of the island. From this peak, the land falls gradually on all sides to form the central plateau. The coastal plains are very narrow, widening only around the capital, Cebu, and at the towns of Tuburan and Bogo. The soil is porous and so thin that the coral subsoil crops out of the surface even in the most fertile regions. According to the 1918 census, there are 252,316 hectares of agricultural land of which only 51 per cent. were cultivated. The principal crops are corn, coconuts, sugar-cane, peanuts, bananas, pineapples, camotes, maguey, and kapok. The island is rich in minerals, the most important being coal and gold. The government cement plant at Naga turns out good cement, and the supply of the crude material is unlimited. Good fishingis to be had along the coast. The estimated population of Cebu province as at December 31st, 1929, was 994,365. Climate. There is one first-class meteorological station located at the capital, and five rain stations distributed throughout the province.
