Mass Induction of Officers
The Mass Induction of Newly elected officers of municipal and provincial officials of Aklan is scheduled on Friday, June 25, 2010. It will be held at 8:00 o’clock in the morning at the ABL Sports Complex, Provincial Capitol, Kalibo, Aklan, according to re-elected Gov. Carlito S. Marquez.
In 2007, the winners of Kusog led by Vice Governor Gabrielle V. Calizo-Quimpo took their oath of office held in Park Homes, Andagao, Kalibo. Among those were Hon. Nemesio P. Neron, Hon. Rodson Mayor, Hon. Daisy Sucro Briones, and Hon. Ramon Gelito.
The induction ceremonies over, Sen. Manuel Villar then inducted barangay, municipal and provincial level officials as members of the Nationalista Party (NP).
However, those who pledged allegiance to the NP forgot their oath to the NP for some joined, coalesced, and won as candidates with other political parties last election.
The mass oath taking on Friday, June 25 deserves watching. Will those who now are with Tibyog or United Leadership continue their support and loyalty to Tibyog?
Many political pundits are predicting there will be some re alignment of political forces within three years and for the 2013 local elections.
The now Cong. Joeben T. Miraflores was mayor of Ibajay, three (3) successive terms Aklan Governor and now on his third term as Congressman of Aklan.
Will Cong. Miraflores go back as Mayor of Ibajay in 2013? Will he exchange position with now Governor Carlito S. Marquez? Marquez is not qualified for reelection in 2013 as Cong. Miraflores is also disqualified for reelection for having served three consecutive terms. There is a great probability that Gov. Marquez may aim for congress in the 2013 election. Will Cong. Joeben opt for a political position in 2013?
Atty. Allen S. Quimpo is a classic example. He was vice mayor and mayor of Kalibo. After serving the Aklanons as their Congressman for nine (9) years in three (3) successive terms, he quitted politics, neither one of his immediate member of his family join the political fray. Atty. Quimpo is now devoting his time and efforts to the academe and consultant on local development. Will they follow Quimpo’s example?
New Gas Station
A new gas station located at Roxas Avenue corner A. Mabini Street, Poblacion, Kalibo has just started catering its products to vehicle owners. This new addition to the fuel retailing in Aklan is a positive sign of a progressive economy.
Is there a diminution of daily sales of the existing stations? Is this additional gas service station a factor in the pricing of gasoline products? Its presence has not affected fuel prices.
The economic law of supply and demand has not work for the advantage of the buyer consumers. Gasoline products is cartelled, an international monopoly. The producers dictate its prices to their dealers and distributors. What the buyers may do is to reduce their consumption to minimize the quantity purchased. Better still if consumers can think of and produce their supplementary product to substitute for cartelled goods.
But why is it that gasoline product in Aklan is P7.00 per liter higher than in Metro Manila? Why can fuel producers charge uniform price in all parts of the Philippines. Beer and soft drinks charge uniform price per bottle in any place in the Philippines.
Can the pricing of fuel and fuel products be one of the major changes in the administration of President Pinoy beginning July 1, 2010? Will it be done?
Obedient
Obedient means giving in to orders or instructions of one in authority or control. It is a temperament that submits easily to control. It is yielding meekly to another person’s request.
Are you obedient? Can you obey traffic rules and regulations? Do you comply with the no smoking signs? Do you fall in line like in a front desk to buy food? In front of clerk’s window to pay taxes? In gate to pass to board a plane? If not, then you are a disobedient person. You are urged to obey legal orders, laws, and regulations. If not, you will become unhappy, a disgrace to society. /MP
