From where he is seated on the stage, the Mayor walks to the other side where we were. To our surprise, he sits on the floor on the stage beside me. (I happened to sit on the floor along with the others kasi kulang ang chairs.) and then na bibo og kalit dihang dapita. Nag selfie og group-fie na tanang konsehal with the Mayor pina abtik. Yan ang Presidente natin. Nakiki upo sa floor. Nakikisama. Simple at humble. Simple pero rock. smile emoticon ‪#‎Du30‬‪#‎Duterte2016‬ ‪#‎TeamAcosta‬ ‪#‎KayaNatin‬ ‪#‎ArawNgDabaw2016‬

Mayor turns over P68-M worth of vehicles, rescue equipment

DAVAO City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte on Friday turned over more than P68 million worth of emergency vehicles and equipment to Central 911 as part of the city's Peace and Order and Disaster Preparedness Program.

These include equipment for communications, water search and rescue, collapse structure rescue, firefighting, high angle rescue, and medical.

Duterte said the purchase of said equipment is not a legacy but a fulfillment of what he promised to the people of Davao.

"These are state of the art. I'd like to make it clear especially for those who are non-believers, this is worth P68 million. We have amphibians, vehicles that can swim in water and travel in land, more water boats which can help us in emergencies," Duterte said in an interview at Davao Convention and Trade Center where he headed the joint meeting of the City Peace and Order Council (CPOC), People's Law Enforcement Board (Pleb), and City Anti-Drug Abuse Council (Cadac).

The equipment are expected to improve even more the response of the Central 911 under Ret. Col. Mario Monsanto, who is the chief operating officer of the Davao City 911 Center.

Members of response teams under Central 911 also received a lecture from the City Mayor on the proper use of the equipment. Duterte recalled a time when a rushing fire truck ran over a student outside University of Mindanao in Matina.

"That's what I really do not like. You do not kill another person while trying to save another. Ayaw ko yang nago-over speeding kayo. Emergency does not mean you have to go over speeding. Take good care of it and use it wisely," he said.
The equipments are valued at P68,543,643.30.

Some 21 units of vehicles sum to P46,311,302.50, which breaks down to rescue vehicle, multi-purpose water tanker, Argo amphibious all terrain vehicle, ambulance, and 10 police mobile patrol cars.

The communications equipment sum to P2,400,000 made off a sum of 130 units of Icom M34 Marine VHF Portable Radios, Motorola GP-3188 VHF Portable Radios, Motorola VHF Base Radio with Larsen Antenna.

The water search and rescue equipment sum to P5,936,300 some of which are inflatable rubber boats, rigid hull fiberglass boats, personnel floatation devices.

The Collapse Structure Rescue Equipment summed to P2,078,510 some of which are Vibrascope Victim Location System, chainsaw Cut-off Saw, Diamond cutting wheel.

One of the Best!

“Muslims, Christians and Lumads converge in Mindanao. Peace and stability in that region rests on the people’s ability to live in harmony. Local School Boards know the local situation best and are critical to building this peace through better education. Davao City, through Mayor Rodrigo Duterte and City Councilor Mabel Acosta, chairman of the council committee on education, has built a strong Local School Board over the past decade that could serve as a model for other cities.”


One of the best

By Roger M. Balanza


Education is a major focus of the administration of Mayor Rodrigo Duterte. Without fanfare, Davao City has established basic foundations in collaboration with the Department of Education (DepEd), other national government agencies and private educational institutions to make the city’s educational system one of the best in the country.

At the core of this initiative is the Local School Board which links with DepEd to provide scholarship, infrastructures, salaries for teachers and other basic needs of the local public school system.

Outside of the public school system, the city government locks arms with private institutions to support their programs and projects and establish conditions for students to pursue their education in a safe community.

This article, from an outsider who has extensive background on the Philippine educational system, should place Davao City on top of the heap among local government units in terms of seriousness and dedication to provide for the education of children.
