The Provincial Capitol Building of Sorsogon
Sorsogon City, July 8 (PIA) – Dalawang magkahiwalay na pagpupulong ang ipinatawag kahapon ni Sorsogon Governor Raul R. Lee kaugnay ng pinaiigting na kampanya ngayon ng pamahalaang probinsyal ng Sorsogon sa pagmamantini ng kalinisan sa palibot ng Kapitolyo Probinsyal sa pamamagitan ng AKAP Kapitolyo Program.

Sa panngunguna ng Provincial Environment and Natural Resources – Local Government Unit (PENRO-LGU), unang ipinatawag sa umaga ang mga head of office ng National Government Agencies (NGAs) at kinahapunan ay isinunod naman ang mga provincial heads.

Sa pulong ay napag-usapan ang ilang mga suliranin, solusyon dito at mga hakbang na higit pang makapagpapaigting sa pagpapatupad at pagmamantini ng programang AKAP Kapitolyo kasama na rin ang mahigpit na pagsunod sa paghihiwa-hiwalay ng mga basura sa loob man o labas ng mga tanggapang nasa compound ng Kapitolyo.

Ang Oplan Linig at Atamanon an Kapalibutan kan Kapitolyo (AKAP Kapitolyo) Program, isang Environmental Management System (EMS) at Greening Program na ipinatutupad sa palibot ng Provincial Capitol Compound, ay sumusuporta sa programa ng pamahalaang nasyunal ukol sa pagpapatupad ng kalinisan, kaayusan, tamang pamamahala sa basura at pagbawas sa polusyon.

Suporta din ito sa Memorandum Circular No. 2011-70 na ipinalabas ni Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Jesse Robredo noong May 13, 2011 bilang tugon na rin sa mahigpit na implementasyon ng mga probisyong nakasaad sa RA 9003.

Ang AKAP Kapitolyo Program ng pamahalaang probinsyal ng Sorsogon ay isa sa mga naging mekanismo upang kilalanin ng DENR Bicol at parangalan bilang Saringgaya Awardee noong 2009 ang lalawigan ng Sorsogon. (PIA Sorsogon)

Ni: Bennie A. Recebido

Sorsogon City, July 7 (PIA) – Kinumpirma ni Assistant Regional Director Engr. Luis Banua ng National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) na nananatiling maganda ang takbo ng ekonomiya sa buong rehiyon ng Bikol sa kabila ng mga nararanasang kalamidad.

Maliban sa pagiging “Agriculture Economy” ng Bicol, inilatag din ni Banua ang ilan pang mga indikasyong kakikitaan ng pagkakaroon ng sustenableng ekonomiya.

Mahalaga aniya ang inflation rate kung saan dapat na mayroong balanseng suplay ng mga produkto ayon sa pangangailangan ng mga mamamayan, consumer price index, purchasing power ng piso, employment rate kung saan sinabi ni Banua na mas maraming trabaho, mas mainam, sustenableng turismo, manufacturing at mataas na Gross Regional Domestic Product.

Binigyang-diin nito ang pagkakaroon ng mababang poverty incidence na mahalagang sangkap din sa pagkakaroon ng sustenableng ekonomiya.

Samantala, sinabi ni Banua na lahat ng mga programang ginagawa ngayon ng rehiyon ay nakabase pa rin sa pagkakaroon ng “Sustainable Development”.

At isa umano ang NEDA sa mga ahensya ng pamahalaan na katuwang sa paglatag ng Regional Development Plan nang sa gayon ay mabigyang-tugon ang kahirapan at iba pang developmental issues na kinakaharap ng buong rehiyon.

Dagdag pa ni Banua na sa ngayon ay pinagsisikapan ng lahat ng ahensya ng pamahalaan na makapagbigay ng mga solusyon sa nararanasang kahirapan habang doble kayod naman ang Department of Agriculture upang makabawi sa mga pinsalang idinulot ng mga nagdaang kalamidad.

Bnigyang-diin din ni Banua ang kahalagahan ng pagsasanib pwersa o convergence ng mga ahensya ng pamahalaan at pakikipagtulungan din nito sa mga pribadong organisasyon o institusyon upang matugunan ang mga isyu sa komunidad. (HBinaya/PIA Sorsogon)

"We are very thankful that today here in the province we are left now only with 16% of  identified children to be vaccinated. Hopefully before the third quarter of this year we can already achieve the 100% target implementation of the MR-SIA ", Arevalo stressed.

"In our scheduled visits to the municipalities and barangays , mothers and relatives of these young children who are identified by our health workers for immunization had been made already available for vaccination. Although done door to door those who were not around during their scheduled dates were brought by their parents to the barangay health stations  for vaccination", he said.

Other municipalities are now almost in their 87-90% implementation .

"We can say that here in the province of Sorsogon, public health concerns are now becoming more on the preventive  and reflective side and not just reactive . Just like in the Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR)  where mitigation is the best service we can do to abate certain situations, so does goes the saying, "An once of prevention is better than a pound of cure"., Arevalo disclosed.
