More than 800 cellphones without NTC sticker seized

By Grace L. Plata
A TOTAL of 838 cellphones were confiscated by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) in separate raids in four city malls Friday afternoon.

In a joint operation, the personnel of NTC along with Task Force Davao and the Regional Mobile Group of the Philippine National Police seized 705 cellphone units from stores in Lachmi Mall, 45 units from shops inside Gaisano Mall of Davao, 100 from those in Victoria Plaza, and 20 in DCLA complex along R. Magsaysay Avenue.

NTC Southern Mindanao Regional Director Delilah Deles, who headed the raiding team, said they confiscated all cellphones without the NTC sticker or logo to protect consumers from danger. Units with logo are those that have been checked using national instrumentation standards for safe use.

The memorandum circular 200204-A of NTC stated that all cellphone retailers are obliged to have permits from NTC to operate aside from the business permit taken from the city of operation. All units to be sold must bear the NTC logo or sticker and all units that do not bear the stamp are considered smuggled therefore illegal.

Deles said if the stall owners want the units back, they have to pay P5,000 per unit and if the store does not have an NTC permit, another fine of P5,000 will be collected.

The confiscated units from the four malls will be stored at the NTC Office.

Friday's raids were the first-ever conducted by NTC in Mindanao. Deles said there will be more but refused to say when.

However, it is business as usual for cellphone retailers after the raid.

According to a shop owner at Lachmi Mall, the cellphone stalls resumed operation after the raiding team left.

It was observed that after Saturday's raid, sales attendants now show clients the NTC seal and let them check the merchandise before selling the unit. Most of the units displayed in the clear cases are also new yet inexpensive ones.

Councilor Pilar Braga, chairman of the committee on energy, transportation and communication, meanwhile expressed approval of the move.

"It is high time that NTC did it because we have a city ordinance regarding the regulated use of cellphones to protect consumers from fake substandard products and stolen cellphones," Braga said.

She added that pawnshops should be monitored as well to protect the consumers.

Rebels raid piggery farm in Sto. Tomas

Sunday, January 06, 2008
A GROUP of New People's Army (NPA) raided a piggery farm and disarmed the security guards in Barangay Katipunan, Sto. Tomas in Davao del Norte on Friday morning.
Reports reaching Sun.Star Davao showed that security guards Teofilo Tagaca and Felomino Rodrigo were inside their office when the rebels, onboard three motorcycles, arrived. The rebels readily disarmed the guards of their M16 rifle and caliber .38 revolver. The raiders then fled thereafter. The guards were however able to identify one of the bikes with its plate number.
Police are now investigating who owns the said motorcycle. The Army's 72nd and 73rd infantry battalions, meanwhile, are conducting hot pursuit operation against the rebels as of this writing.
Sto. Tomas Police Chief Thor Valiente Cuyos said they also placed the two security guards under tactical interrogation to determine what really happened and if the two are culpable of any neglect.

The Army's 10th Infantry Division, in a statement, said it has been the modus operandi of he NPA to hit soft and undefended targets.

"We are anticipating that there will be more NPA atrocities similar to this. We have directed our field units to review the security arrangement with the different security agencies of farms, plantations and other business establishments," the statement added.

"It has always been emphasized to the owners of said establishments that they play a vital role in preventing the occurrence of these atrocities. The security effort of the military to protect or insulate the farm or plantation from NPA attack will become irrelevant without the active cooperation of the owners. (With Danjo Revilla)

Nogie hits back, demands report

THE word war rages on and this time, Davao City First District Rep. Prospero C. Nograles is taking to task Mayor Rodrigo R. Duterte for failing to submit an annual performance report so that Dabawenyos would know where their P3 billion annual budget went.

Mayor Duterte replied by saying that such an annual performance reports is not needed anymore as the people of Davao could pretty well see where their money goes.

"No need for a paper report. You can see it everywhere. Anyway I will send you one," was Duterte's reply to Nograles.

Nograles, however, insisted that Republic Act 6713, Code of Conduct & Ethical Standards for Public Officials, states that "every year a performance report should be made in writing and made public."

"Question, Davao City has P3 billion per year income. Has there ever been a yearly performance report on this? Congress has yearly report in its website and each congressman, including me, gives everyone a copy of his yearly performance report published," Nograles said.

Last Sunday, Duterte accused Nograles of not doing anything for Dabawenyos.

"Sa tinuod lang (the truth is) Boy, you never stood for the interest of Davao City. Kadtong dunay krisis dinhi, hain man ka (when there was crisis here, where were you)?" Duterte said.

Nograles, however, advised the mayor to ask barangay officials what help he had given them.

"Issue about helping Davao people? Ask, interview all barangay officials what help we have given to their people? Livelihood projects, Philhealth insurance, garbage environment vehicles, medicines and hospitalization at the Davao Medical Center, college scholarships with 3,000 college scholars in Usep and Ched, just to name a few. It's all in my yearly published performance report," Nograles said.

The Duterte-Nograles word war is now on its second week and Dabawenyos are already expressing their worry that the conflict might affect delivery of basic services. Mayor Duterte, however, assured Dabawenyos that for as long as he is the one running the City Government of Davao, services will continue as usual.

He said Nograles has nothing to do with running the city since the lawmaker is based in Metro Manila, in Congress, where his job is crafting laws and not running Davao City.
