Same names
Same, old faces seek Capiz leaderships
By Edalyn ActaROXAS CITY—Nothing seems new insofar as the personalities running for public offices in next year’s elections in Capiz is concerned.
For one, the Liberal Party (LP) in Capiz has adopted a ‘status quo’ in dealing with its members. This means that the incumbent local officials under LP will still be its official bets in the 2013 national polls.
Leading the list of LP candidates is incumbent Gov. Victor Tanco, Sr., who is seeking his final term as Capiz governor. His running mate is Vice Gov. Esteban Evan Contreras.
Running against Tanco is Joel P. Longares of the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA), a new alliance headed by Vice President Jejomar Binay.
Likewise, Rep. Antonio del Rosario (LP) of the province’s first district is seeking his last term in the same post, up against Zenon Eslaban Amoroso, running as independent; Jesus Maria Jose Avelino of the National Unity Party (NUP); and Condrado Tinsay, independent.
For the province’s second district, LP has fielded Sigma Mayor Maria Andaya to challenge erstwhile Rep. Fredenil Castro, seeking to reclaim his former seat under NUP.
Meanwhile, the Roxas City race is on between incumbent Mayor Angel Alan Celino and former City Mayor Vicente Bermejo, whom Celino defeated by a narrow margin of 600 votes in the 2010 elections. Bermejo is attempting to regain the mayorship under NUP.
The following are running as candidates for Board Members in the first and second districts and in different municipalities of Capiz.

By Enrico Gil IletoMore than 2,400 service member aspirants are expected to take the scheduled Philippine Army Aptitude Test Battery (PAATB) and other Army pre-entry examination in six testing centers in Western Visayas in October.
“We are preparing accordingly for the dates set in this region. As we have experienced in Samar and Leyte provinces in August, exam centers had more than 400 examinees each”, said Maj. Joseph Laguna, chief of the Army Recruitment Office (ARO) for the Visayas.

Those who will be qualified for CS training will most likely be allotted to the 3rd Infantry Division (3ID). Officer candidates will train at the Officer Candidate School in Tarlac province”, added Laguna.

The assignment of exam centers in various parts of the region will definitely broaden the pool of candidates for soldiery as we choose the best among the best for the Army”, said Maj. Gen.

“For the Army serves the public interest whether in defense of democracy or in pursuit of progress. The Army that you can build is one that is professional, driven, and results-oriented. An Army manned by men and women of versatile expertise, ready to respond to the challenges of growth and development”, the Army said.
Monthly gross Pay and allowances for Candidate Soldier reach P 13,326, 19,062 for enlisted Personnel with a rank of Private, P32,668 for an Officer Candidate to P37,770 once called to active duty as a 2nd Lieutenant.
“A life in the service has the privilege of insurance and healthcare benefits, billeting and housing privileges, job security, leadership and other skills trainings, opportunity for career advancement based on performance, opportunities for post graduate studies both within the country and abroad and an opportunity to lead in the Army”, the Army added.

DTI Capiz sets out-of-town helmet inspection
By Alex LumaqueROXAS CITY—An inspection and sticker marking on motorcycle helmets will be conducted by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Capiz Provincial Office in Sigma, Capiz Oct. 24.
“We are open for requests from the local government units as long as there is no conflict on our schedule,” said DTI Capiz Business Regulation and Consumer Welfare Division (BRCWD) head Angelita Colmo.
On Sept. 28, the helmet inspection and stickers marking was conducted by DTI Capiz catered to 21 helmet owners in Sapian town.
She added that there are about 44,000 motorcycles based on Land Transportation Office (LTO) Roxas City estimate.
Based on the Motorcycle Helmet Act of 2009 which will be strictly implemented on Jan. 1, 2013, motorcycle drivers and back-riders caught not wearing the standard protective motorcycle helmet will be fined P1,500 by the Land Transportation Office (LTO).
The motorists’ headgear must be sealed with Philippine Standards (PS) or Import Commodity Clearance (ICC) stickers by next year to avoid penalties from Motorcycle Helmet Act implementers.
The order was originally for implementation on Aug. 1 this year.
However, the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) has ordered LTO to defer enforcement of the Helmet Act until Jan. 1, 2013 upon the request of DTI to give them more time to complete inspection of motorcycle head gears nationwide.
