Cong. Antonio “Anton” F. Lagdameo, Jr. of the 2nd District of Davao del Norte, inaugurated yesterday two (2) major projects in the Municipality of Carmen namely the Road concreting project connecting Carmen’s National High School, Public Market and Public Terminal, and the Association of Barangay Council’s (ABC) Building worth 5 and 6 Million, respectively.
Lagdameo personally joined his constituents in the blessing of the two projects. With him were Carmen’s Mayor Marcelino Perandos and Vice Mayor Alberto Sarin along with Sanguniang Bayan officials, barangay captains, media and local townspeople. Lagdameo said that “these 2 projects are my advance valentine gift to the people of Carmen for your collaborative dedication to make this place progressive. The said projects are part of the congressman’s centerpiece program, Barangayanihan.
The road concreting project proves to be a major catalyst for the municipality’s rapidly growing economy as it traverses three major public structures of the town. Many stalls are also sprouting beside the street which adds to the town’s local revenue.
Mr Jovencio Mahumot, a trisikad driver and a ranking official of the locality’s trisikad driver and operator’s association expressed his elation of the project and said “because of Cong. Lagdameo’s road concreting project, our income has significantly increased since we deliver our passengers faster and with less stress. The number of passengers is also increasing as the public market expands further into the road connecting the terminal.”
For the newly finished ABC Hall, Liga ng mga Barangay President Resty Salaysay could not contain his feelings of appreciation to Cong. Lagdameo’s project for their association since this is a dream come true. The town’s barangay chairmen were once conducting their meetings anywhere within the municipal hall complex since they did not have an office to stay, much more, a room to house the officials from its 20 barangays for a meeting.
The local officer of the Department of Interior and Local Government was also mentioned as one of the occupants of the new building.
Mayor Mar Perandos articulated his deep appreciation for Cong. Lagdameo’s efforts and contribution in transforming the town into a bustling and progressing municipality. He mentioned all the projects that were realized under his administration were funded by the young legislator such as the construction of the Municipal Health Center. renovation of the municipal gym and complex, livelihood center, mini-ambulance in all its barangays and now the ABC Hall and School-Market-Terminal Road Concreting. The mayor also revealed that Cong. Lagdameo has also worked for the recent implementation of a 75 Million Desilting and Dike Protection project that is on-going under implementation by the National Irrigation Administration (NIA).
Carmen’s new ABC Hall is just one of Cong. Lagdameo’s pet project for the barangay leaders. Another ABC Hall is being completed in Peñaplata, Island Garden City of Samal for the said city’s barangay officials. (30)
Davao del Norte 2nd District Anton F. Lagdameo, Jr. expresses his desire for a peaceful election as the election period for the May 13, 2013 National, Local and ARMM Regional Election started this January 13, 2013 and will end on June 12, 2013.
In a prepared press release provided by his office, Lagdameo said that “I personally enjoin all our candidates especially in Davao del Norte to lead a fine example to all our neighboring provinces especially here in Mindanao and the entire country that election can be done peacefully devoid of coercion, mud-slinging, vote buying and other illegal practices.”
He added that “It is important that we abide by the rules set by the Commission on Elections and the enforcement of the Philippine National Police and the military for us to arrive at a fair and violent-free election.”
Davao del Norte Election Supervisor Atty. Gay Asuncion-Enumerables earlier announced that based on resolutions from the Comelec National Office, there will be a total gun ban for all candidates and private gun owners. Only regular members of the Philippine National Police, the Armed Forces of the Philippines and other law enforcement agencies of the government who are duly deputized in writing by the Commission for election duty may be authorized to carry and possess firearms during the election period.
Davao del Norte has so far been one of the most orderly and peaceful area during elections.
When asked what his strategy is in the coming political debacle, he said that “perhaps the most hardworking, qualified and sincere candidate would win the election. We just have to double our effort in campaigning since as incumbent officials, we were already given ample time to show our competence, sincerity and efficiency as public servants when we assume our respective posts for 3 years. The myriad projects and programs that I was able to successfully implement for my people in the district thru my Barangayanihan Programs will speak for itself .In the end, It will be up to our people and the Lord Almighty to choose who’s best.”
Cong. Lagdameo is gunning for his 3rd and last term of tenure as Lower House Representative of the 2nd District of Davao del Norte.
Lagdameo, a scion of the influential Floirendo-Del Rosario Family, is a high ranking member of the National Unity Party in Mindanao and currently also, is the Provincial Chairman of Kusog Baryohanon, a duly registered local political party in Davao del Norte.
MANILA, Philippines—A total of 949 out of 5,343 examinees passed the 2012 bar examination, the Supreme Court said Wednesday.

The Philippines' highest court suspended on Tuesday a controversial birth control law that had met fierce opposition from the powerful Catholic Church.
Voting 10-5, the Supreme Court issued a four-month freeze against the law, which requires government health centres to hand out free condoms and schools to teach sex education, court spokesman Theodore Te said.
The order "stops implementation of the reproductive health law for 120 days," Te said, after a closed door session of the justices.
Te did not comment on the merits of the case, saying only the court had issued the suspension to allow petitioners against the law time to present their oral arguments on June 18.
President Benigno Aquino's office said the government respected the high court's order, but stressed it was optimistic the Supreme Court would eventually ratify the law.
"We will observe the... resolution issued by the Supreme Court and we are confident that the government will be able to defend the merits of the Responsible Parenthood Law," Aquino's spokesman, Edwin Lacierda, told reporters.
The Catholic Church and pro-life groups were however quick to welcome the decision, saying they interpreted the court's decision as backing the merits of their argument.
"We deem it as a victory, but not a final victory yet," Eric Manalang, president of Pro-Life Philippines, told AFP, describing the law as "evil".
After more than a decade of opposition by the influential Catholic Church, legislators passed the measure late last year and it formally took effect in January.
Church-backed religious groups had lodged at least six petitions with the Supreme Court seeking to overturn the law, arguing it was immoral and openly promoted promiscuity by mandating sex education be taught in schools.
The Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) has since called for a "morality vote" in the May mid-term elections against legislators who voted for the passage of the law.
More than 80 percent of the country's 100 million population are Catholics, making it Asia's bulwark of the faith.
MANILA -- Former allies of Pampanga Representative Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has picked four candidates -- two from Team PNoy and another two from the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) -- to endorse in the May midterm elections.
Nueva Ecija Representative Rodolfo Antonino, president of the National Unity Party (NUP), said they will support the candidacy of Team PNoy’s Paolo Benigno “Bam” Aquino and Senator Alan Peter Cayetano, and UNA’s Nancy Binay and Senator Gringo Honasan.
The NUP was formed by congressmen who bolted the Lakas-Kampi-Christian Muslim Democrats (CMD) party of former President Arroyo. It vowed support for the Aquino administration and the leadership of Speaker Feliciano Belmonte Jr. in the House of Representatives.
Belmonte, also a former member of Lakas-Kampi-CMD, is an honorary chairman of the NUP.
“We are confirming support for an initial four candidates who are Aquino, Cayetano, Honasan and Binay. (There will be) more to follow, maybe another four candidates,” Antonino said.
“The rest will be at the discretion of our members,” the lawmaker added.
Antonino said the other four candidates the NUP will endorse will be announced after Holy Week or by the end of the month.
The NUP is fielding 37 candidates for Congress, 15 for provincial governor, and eight for vice governor. (Kathrina Alvarez/Sunnex)
