Attending seminar/orientation on pre-audit

Last July 2, 2009 was the orientation seminar on pre-audit at the COA Regional Office No. XI with people from Central Office as the Key Speakers. It was a successful and interesting subject/undertaking considering the subject COA Circular No. 2009-002 and its amendments, (http://www.coa.gov.ph/) the restoration of pre-audit of transactions before payment is made, on a selective basis . It was no other than Sir Jimmy, Asst. Com. who delivered/impart his expertise on the subject, there was no untoward or violent reactions during the open forum. It seems that everybody was smiling til the end of the session. However, I also observed that some are lonely and felt stress because of the impending reshuffling of Auditors, they kept on thinking of their future assignments. We were expecting some kind of big announcements, but there was little. Movement of Auditors has been the subject of talks on various COA corners since the early months of 2009. There are rumors that Office Orders will be released very soon. They said, pre-audit will take effect next month. Well, we"ll just wait and see what comes first, let us do our job well as expected. There is no backing-out now. Do you the title of these songlines ... Hapiness is what I long for, loneliness is why i cried. . . When somebody leaves you. . .

I have promised my friend Rosamar that I will write my ideas, something regarding the seminar. Here it is Rose my Carlos ideas lang ha. . .. Thank you friend for reading, til next... Please give the title of the song.

Tomorrow, i may have that chance of going back to one of the most beautiful place in Compostela Valley, the Municipality of Maragusan, a small town located in easternside of the Province, where hot and cold springs like the Aguacan Resort, and the Tagbibinta falls are found.

debt management in time of crisis

The otherday I wrote regarding my being hospitlized and undergone operation due to Lipoma below my ear or near my nick, that was an experienced for the first time that can"t be taken for granted. Me, being a lowly employee is being tied to some kind of cash strap or financially imbalanced needing some extra cash for unexpected events, aware of the present financial economic condition, going to hospital is the most unfortunate event in our daily undertakings, most tiring, time consuming and money exhausting. Fortunately, I have my GSIS, a government owned corporation catering insurance to government employees, that gives its members a consolidated loan-salary. I am also a member of a employees cooperative that gives also consolidated loans, these loans help a lot during my hospitalization. I was informed also of another opportunity like debt consolidation, many different name loans, consolidated into one loan -visit Http://www.3debtconsolidation.com/ like Credit Cards which the most are engaging. I dont have yet that kind of thing, I am interested to have. Having debts made me worry, that I may not be able to pay, that is why I am not in yet in Credit Cards. I was then a constant borrower of GSIS, like salary loan, policy , emergency and calamity loans and many kinds of loans, in order to cope with the present times until this loan consolidation was introduced. Thank you for this opportunity, this help me and my family a lot.

First time hospitalized


Pardon for not writing you for quite sometime, it is because i was hospitalized I had a lipoma removed from my nick. It was quite an experience, it was my first time. Sometime in 1996, I observed that a thing is growing in my nick below my ear, it was a small one, I didn"t bother to have it checked by the doctor because as if it was only a pimple , then i forgot about it. Lately, my friends had observed the "bukol" which I used to be covered by my collar. It was not really painful, but nahihiya na po ako dahil doon sa bukol. Ito ay lumalaki ng lumaki. That "bukol" made me shy of myself, I dont like to be with my friends, until my boss had observed my behaviour, I cannot do otherwise but to tell my boss about the situation the "bukol on my nick". She advised me to have that bukol removed or to undergo operation "Magpa-opera" Ako po ay takot sa dugo at karayum at sa operation, yon ang dahilan na ayaw kong magpaospital. But they convinced me to have it removed. So I gave-up, On May 12, I decided t0 go the doctor I had that bukol removed. On the night of May 11, I was advised not to take anything, food and water until the operation is finished. Early in the morning of 12th of May, I and my wife went to the Hospital. Davao Medical Center in Davao City. The doctor had already arranged for the operation, after some applications of hospital procedures, as early as 8 in the morning, the bukol was removed. The operation was very successful, it didnt take 3 hours and after that I was told to go home. Thanks to my doctor- Dr. Walter Batucan, now am recuperating and ok na. Praise the Lord. Am back to work again after a leave of absence. Thank you also to my boss, Madam Lyds for understanding me. thank you to all the prayers of my officemates.

riding habal-habal (3)

Miss you for quite sometime, not being able to write in this blog. Let me continue my story about my travel riding habal-habal. The last time i wrote was we reached our destination at Pongpong ES, we stayed for the night, after we had inspected the school building, there was that enjoyment with the school officials and the barangay officials. They prepared roasted native chicken, sinabaw and adobo, how nice eating with the people in the barangays with on the "lamparilla" small gas lamp used to light our food and us. After eating we had some chikachika with the school officials, and the people there, they spoke to us there plans for their barangay. One of them, offered to donate a portion of their lot for school site for high school, which we advised them to make it past. We talked also about peace and order in their place and they assured the team of our safety. We were able to consumed 3 Junior Lapad. Being tired of walking we easily fall asleep, me not being able to dry may hair. That was a very cold night considering the forest cover near the place. The following morning, I woke-up early and took pictures of the school building and the surroundings, talk to the people residing there, inquire from them regarding the building and they said it was OK. After breakfast of the same food, chicken adobo, we packed some rice and adobo for our lunch. At arround 7:00am we again started walking back to New Bataan eager to reach back home, passing thru the same terrain, climbing mountains ans slopes. While walking along the grassy path, we meet some barangay officials of another barangay, they were bringing "surit-surit" a single shot gun, they said for "baboy ihalas" wild bore. We did just continue walking, taking to each other, making jokes, etc. at around 4 pm we reach our distination the 2nd camarin. Again the "Habal-habal was waiting for us to fetch us to the poblacion. That was tiring experience but enjoyable.

no ride except habal-habal (2)

The otherday, I posted on this blog about my experience traveling in the hinterlands without ride, except habal-habal.
About noon we reached the 2nd camarin, we rested for a while and ate out baon of bulad, adobo manok, and rice wrapped in banana leaves. In that place there is that "tubod/busay" free flowing water from side of the moutain, that was our source of drinking water. After 20 minutes, we then continued to walk until we reached the "bangin or pang-pang" the bangin was casued by landslide due to continous rain, very "Danglog" slippery. We cant do otherwise but to climb and crawl that bangin, more or less 50 meters high around 80 degrees, very stiff. It was easy then to climb, by just holding onto the rocks on the side of the bangin. Reaching the top of the bangin is quite breathlosing action. Then we walk again going down, that was the difficult part of walking, because you have to hold your muscles, might get "Bicog" we again walk for almost 3 hours under the heat of the sun then, we reached the "Sapa" small river and crossed that river till we reach Barabat Elem School. That was almost 4:00pm. We rested for a while, took some pictures, chikachika with some of the residents, they were asking what were the purpose of our going there. People were friendly and happy looking. After 10 minutes of rest we then proceeded to our distination. We crossed "Basakan" rice fields, "Maisan" corn fields. Rain started to fall, for almost an hour we reached the "Suba" PongPong river. The river started to rise, we hurriedly cross, the water was waist deep and strong, I almost carried by the current, combination of hot and cold in our body made us weak. After crossing the river, we walk again for around 6:00pm, we reached Pongpong ES. I shouted "Praise the Lord". That was dark already. We were met by barangay officials and the residents there happily. . . . to be continued..

No ride except "habal-habal"


Please allow me to share with you my experience, regarding work assignments in rural areas. I was assigned to conduct inspection on the construction of a school building in Pongpong ES, a remote barangay ES wherein there is no other means of transportation to reach the place except riding the "Habal-habal"and then by walking. Habal-habal is the name used on single motorcycle loaded with 4 or 5 passengers. We were a team composed of the Supply Officer, an Engineer and me. Were guided by the teacher assigned in the area. We rode the Habal-habal for an hour, but before reaching the end of the road we met an accident, the habal-habal stumble, unluckily our companions leg was burn-"Paso" it was hit by the "tambutso" of the motor. So proceeded by walking till we reach the end of the road. they called it camarin I. We had to stop to check the condition of our companion. He decided not to go with us anymore he cant walk due to the paso and I said OK. My companions were asking me, if we are going to continue, I said Yes. We asked the people there the distance that we are going to walk, they said walking for 3 hours, well reach our destination. The time is almost 6:00am, so we started climbing the mountainside uphill. We walk and walk, up and down the mountains, under the cover of trees, we were warned of the "Linta" we met natives or lumad in the area, they are very familiar with the place. Because of the upclimb, I almost lost my breath, so we had to rest once in a while. We forgot the time that it was already 12:00nn. We stop in a hut a "Kubo" and ate our baon. we are still halfway. . . Because of the "Pagod" I did not realized that I was bitten already by linta.. . .
