Reveal City Hall anomalies,
Perdices dares employee

BY JUANCHO GALLARDE

The Dumaguete Social Welfare Office no longer needs the services of a casual employee who complained when her contract was not renewed this month, and no department is willing to absorb her, city human resource officer Jun Tenorio said yesterday.

Tenorio said he echoed the statement of Mayor Agustin Perdices on the case of Lorna Ceriales. He said that when her term of employment expired, the contract of Ceriales and two other employees were not renewed.

But because she claimed to be holding “information” against the department head, Marina Mendoza, Tenorio said Perdices challenged Ceriales to prove the allegation. If she can do it, she will be rehired and placed in the City Mayor’s office.

P47-M loan eyed for education
BY JUANCHO GALLARDE

The Sangguniang Panlalawigan and the provincial school board of Negros Oriental has authorized Gov. Emilio Macias II to apply for a P47-million loan with the Development Bank of the Philippines through a program called “Basta NegOr Education 104.”

This developed after the provincial Department of Education headed by Superintendent Licerio Napao submitted a list of the school building projects in every town, during the meeting with the League of Municipalities of the Philippines-Negros Oriental chapter headed by Mayor Reynaldo Tuanda, for a possible cost-sharing scheme.

Napao said this is a joint project of the province and the DepEd headed by Secretary Jesli Lapus.

Guv supports bamboo industry
BY MARICAR ARANAS

Gov. Emilio Macias II said he is supporting the development of the bamboo industry in Negros Oriental after the signing of an agreement between a Belgian investor and the Buglas Bamboo Institute for the building of a bamboo factory.

The province has an ample supply of bamboo, especially in the hinterland barangays and along the riverbanks of some of its local government units.

Macias said the foreign investor  will not  only  offer more  jobs for Negrenses but also give more  publicity  to Negros  Oriental.
