MALUNGON, Sarangani – POLICE neutralized in brief firefight, a suspected heist group leader which resulted to the recovery of not only carted cash and belongings, but an earlier stolen motorcycle used as ‘get away’ vehicle during a recently foiled hold-up incident in sitio Molave, Talus, Malungon, Sarangani Province. 

P/Chief Inspector Lorobe Rojo, in a report forwarded to Mayor Reynaldo F. Constantino on Friday, said the black and white-colored XRM 125 motorcycle bearing plate numbers 9400 IA was formally turned over to its legal owner identified as certain Carlos Cadiongon on February 03, 2014 at the Municipal Police Station, here in town.

Rojo said the motorcycle was left behind during brief exchange of fires between government authorities and the two suspects who earlier pretended to be as diesel fuel sellers to a local-based lady entrepreneur. 

Police said the wounded suspect later identified as certain Maximo Lariosa y Lagnas of Lariosa of Tubod, Vinapor, Carmen, Agusan Del Norte, was immediately brought to a nearby infirmary for medication - but was pronounced dead on arrival by attending physicians. 

Modus operandi:

“The suspects, in the guise as diesel fuel suppliers first approached and befriended the victim (name withheld) at her roadside eatery, until such time that they returned to the place to 'do business.' This time, the victim with her son and several workers boarded their private-owned truck to allegedly haul the diesel fuel, while the suspects led the convoy toward the supposed place where the diesel fuel could be easily loaded to the truck. 

The suspects later announced the heist right after entering a small secluded farm road and took with them the more or less P60, 000 cash of the victim. Tied, the victims however managed to untie themselves and report the incident to police authorities. 

Community, barangay officials’ participation:

After the flashed alarm, Malalag Cogon Brgy. Capt. Randy Manguirn called the police at around 5:00 pm to inform about a Honda motorcycle with plate number 9400 IA that was left unattended for several hours, at a grassy portion of Malalag Cogon National High School.

Rojo said a road block was right away established by nearby police stations particularly the combined TF Gensan and Police Precinct 08-manned checkpoint in Brgy. Tinagacan, General Santos City. 

Police dragnet :

Policemen backed by barangay officials and tanods were immediately dispatched by Rojo who was then with PO1 Crisanto Baculna, in various strategic points, where authorities have waited until the suspects’ return at around 7:20 in the evening. 

“I ordered my men to identify themselves as government authorities while halting the suspects, who instead of slowing down, speed up their motorcycle and fired at the pursuing policemen. These prompted operatives to engage in a running gun battle, hitting the back rider down to the ground. The driver however, continuously engaged by firing back a handgun against the pursuing policemen. He managed to run towards a darkened portion of the place, and perished in the dark,” Rojo added. 

Further verification:

Aside from being pinpointed by his would be victims, a follow-up coordination with Carmen town chief of police P/Sr. Insp. Marife Farol has confirmed that the same suspect is a longtime wanted due of a standing Court warrant for Robbery and Violence or intimidation issued by Butuan City RTC 10th Judicial Region Presiding Judge, Hon. Augustus L. Calo. 

Rojo said on 01 February 2014, close relatives led by the suspect’s lived in partner Rosalinda Balmocena and elder brother Climaco, claimed the suspect’s cadaver at a local funeral parlor. 

Rojo said a case of Robbery with intimidation has been filed against the two (2) suspects at office of the Provincial Prosecutor, Alabel, Sarangani Province with NPS Docket Number: XII-07-INV-14B-00037 signed by Fiscal PAOLO R AQUINO, Prosecution – Attorney, Sarangani Province.

It can be recalled that Constantino also commended for a job well done, the PCI Rojo-led local policemen following the apprehension of a motorcycle carnapper last year. "This kind of alertness and proper coordination is what we need in protecting residents against various kind of lawless elements," Constantino said. (MALUNGON INFORMATION OFFICE).

MALUNGON, Sarangani – The Department of the Interior and Local Government is set to pour P31 million-worth projects in various villages here by next year, while Malungon town has been named consistent recipient of DILG’s prestigious Seal of Good Housekeeping, a reliable source said. 

DILG provincial director Flor Limpin stress the announcement amid the opening of a recently held two-day seminar-workshop dubbed as ‘Formulation of Local Poverty Reduction Action Plan," that was attended by top local government officials, department heads, and various civil social groups in Family Country Homes Convention Center, General Santos City. 

Limpin said the DILG-hosted study was aimed at teaching participants on how to prepare, design and compile necessary documents that are needed to avail project support and funding from the national government.

“This was designed to enhance the budget and planning capabilities of our grassroots organizations and LGUs, specifically in identifying the proposed poverty reduction projects that will be submitted for final evaluation to different national-based government agencies. 

Limpin said tasked by no less Pres. Benigno Aquino himself, the department is also mandated to assist and or oversee the implementation of various government-funded projects, and “help facilitate the rationalizing of national government intergovermental transfers to LGUs, and encourage the realignment of local development initiatives with the national government development agenda and priorities to ensure that the administration’s desire to alleviate poverty in remote villages will be attained. 

As of today, reports said DILG is serving P1.25 billion for its housing project for informal settlers, P575 million for potable water supply and P76 million on its climate change adaption projects, nationwide.

In line, Interior and Local Government Secretary Mar Roxas has called on various people’s organizations in cities and municipalities all over the country to participate actively in the identification and monitoring of government projects that seek to alleviate poverty in their respective communities.

To strengthen more of its development programs and anti-corruption drive, DILG also launched the conferment of Seal to LGUs that adheres to its performance criteria, by extending incentives or otherwise known as performance challenge fund to those chosen LGUs with good housekeeping capabilities. 

In 2011, Mayor Reynaldo F. Constantino of Malungon town received its first Seal of Good Housekeeping from no less, the late DILG Secretary Jessie Robredo because of the LGU's lucid implimentation of its weekly ‘Lingap sa Barangay’ program. The 'Lingap' paved way for tribal minorities and poor people in far flung villages to avail the longtime awaited government programs on Philhealth, Pantawig Pamilyang Pilipino Program, free medical and dental consultations, circumcision, Kasalan ng Bayan, Health and sanitation and other civic services. This includes the Municipal Nutrition Council's (MNC) active campaign against malnutrition, which resulted for Malungon town to become consistent holder of the CROWN Award (Consistent Regional Outstanding Winner in Nutrition) in two consecutive years.

Lead by Roselyn, the mayor's better half and volunteer municipal action officer, MNC in CY 2010-11 was then Central Mindanao Region's lone representative in the nationwide search for National Nutrition Council (NNC) Award in metro Manila.

On November 05, 2013, a letter from the Department of the Interior and Local Government signed by honorable Secretary Mar Roxas, was received by Constantino. "I was really so glad to be informed byno less the honorable Secretary Roxas, that our LGU once again bagged the prestigious DILG Seal of Good Housekeeping award in 2012, subsequently right after receinving the same in 2011. Through His guidance and blessings, all of these achievements will serve as a never-fading legacy of my time while at helm of the local government. And so to all of my partners who had been working hard with me since I assumed office in 2007, and I believe until my last day stay in the government in 2016," Constantino told newsmen. 

“As an SGH recipient, your LGU will now have the access to other national program windows, such the Bottom-Up Program, PAMANA SALINTUBIG and the Special Local Road Fund," said Roxas, as he congratulates Consatntino for being an achiever of the national government’s full disclosure policy program, and for meeting the exemplary standards of frontline services, with no adverse or disclaimer audit findings by the Commission on Audit. 

During seminar, Constantino once again reminded participants to continuously adhere and support the administration’s battle cry of unity and cooperation. He said because of this, the local government officials have able to uplift the living condition of the poor, specifically the tribal Taga-kaulo and Blaan communities. 

“Because of unity and cooperation, Malungonians are now true flag bearers of progress and development in Sarangani. My administration's legacy that will forever reverberate in the wits of not only the forebears, but of the unborn - who will be spreading the news up to the incoming generations," Constantino said.

MALUNGON, Sarangani – Pormal nang nanumpa sa katungkulan bilang bagong m’yembro ng Sangguniang Barangay ang maybahay ng isang SB kagawad na walang-awang pinagbabaril ng mga di pa nakikilalang salarin sa loob mismo ng bahay nito sa Brgy. Nagpan, Malungon, Sarangani Province noong nakaraang buwan ng Disyembre, 2013.

Ayon kay MLGOO Mary Grace Demaala-Santarin ng Kagawaran ng Interyor at Pamahalaang Lokal o DILG ay nanumpa sa katungkulan si Luz bilang papalit sa p’westo ni dating Nagpan SB member Raul Demagnaong, sa isang simple ngunit pormal na ‘oath-taking ceremony’ na binigyang-bisa ni Mayor Reynaldo F. Constantino sa harap ng mga malalapit na pamilya’t dating kasamahan sa trabaho ng namayapang kabiyak.

“Her (Luz) appointment was strongly endorsed by virtue of an SB resolution duly signed by the punong barangay and entire members of the Sanguniang Barangay of Nagpan,” ani Santarin, na isa rin sa mga nagbigay daan sa ginanap na panunumpa sa katungkulan ni Ms. Demagnaong.

Ayon sa ulat ay karga-karga umano ng pinaslang ang maliit na apo samantalang nagpapahangin ito sa may terasa ng bahay ng pasukin at paputukan sa malapitan ng di pa rin nakikilalang triggerman, samantalang nakaantabay naman umano ang ilang kasamahan ng salarin sa labas ng bahay ng biktima.

‘Himala namang nakaligtas ang bata, o sadyang ‘di ito pinatamaan ng salarin,’ ang ayon pa sa ilang kumento ng mga kamag-anak ng namayapang opisyal.

Samantala ay tiniyak naman ng pulisya ang isang masusing pagsisiyasat sa kaso, samantalang mas pinahigpitan din nito ang pagbabantay sa kapaligiran ng nasabing munisepyo. (Isagani Palma – MALUNGON INFORMATION OFFICE).
