Binay, Villar Gain Big in Latest Survey




United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) senatorial candidate Nancy Binay and Team PNoy's Cynthia Villar gained big in the April pre-election Social Weather Stations survey, sharing the third and fourth spots.

The two female senatorial candidates both earned 49 percent of votes during the survey period April 13 to 15, climbing from their ranks on fifth to seventh spots with 47 percent of votes in last month's survey.

Villar, slowly regained her position in the chart from her January drop to ninth in the rankings, while Binay also climbed from 12th place in January.

Villar and Binay also traded places with UNA's JV Ejercito whose rank fell to 7th to 8th spots, tied with re-electionist Senator Aquilino "Koko" Pimentel III.

The same survey, meanwhile, showed that re-electionist Senator Francis "Chiz" Escudero continued to drop from the coveted second spot to the fifth.

President Benigno Aquino III's cousin, Liberal Party's Benigno "Bam" Aquino IV, also advanced from 10th to 6th in the senate race.

Edgardo "Sonny" Angara, who is also running under Liberal Party, gained three spots from 12th to 9th.







































While Liberal Party's Grace Poe Llamanzares retained her position at 10th to 11th, she now shares the rank with fellow Liberal Party candidate, re-electionist Senator Antonio "Sonny" Trillanes IV, with 39 percent of potential votes.

Jack Enrile and re-electionist Gregorio Honasan, both running under the banner of UNA, occupy the last two places of the "Magic 12."

The survey among 1,800 representative voters nationwide sought to find the preferred senatorial candidates of the voters leading to the May polls.








Paeng Diaz, Serbisyong Ganap, Serbisyong Lubos!





JOSE Rafael E. Diaz mas kilala sa tawag na “Paeng.” Sino siya?

Siya ay simpleng tao. Mataba ang puso para sa kapwa, kaya mahal siya ng mga pinaglilingkuran niya sa San Mateo, Rizal.

Si Paeng na anak nina dating Mayor Jose Diaz at Gng. Leticia Evangelista – Diaz ay mahal ng mga taga-San Mateo dahil ‘di niya sila pinapabayaan.

Patunay na mahal siya ng San Mateo ay ang pagpapaupo sa kanya bilang alkalde mula noong 2007. Dahil nga sa ipinakita ni Paeng na totoo si-yang  lingkod bayan o prayoridad niya ang mga taga-San Mateo, siya ay muling pinaupo sa munisipyo  para ipagpatuloy ang paglingkod. Ibig sabihin ay malaki ang tiwala nila kay Paeng. Hindi naman nabigo ang mga residente kay Paeng – kanyang tinupad ang mga ipinangako sa kanila. Ngayon siya ay muling tumatakbo sa pagka-alkalde hindi para sa kanyang sariling interes kundi para maipagpatuloy ang paglingkod sa mga taga-San Mateo. Marami pa kasing proyekto at magagandang plano si Mayor para sa mga taga- San Mateo.

Si Paeng nga pala ay isang degree holder (Bachelor of Science in Business Management) at produkto ng Ateneo de Manila University.

Bago naging alkalde ay sumabak na siya sa maraming pagsubok – mabibigat na trabaho at responsibilidad na isa sa naging inspirasyon niya para palawakin ang kanyang paglingkod — sa publiko.

Bukod dito, si Paeng ay naging Municipal Administrator ng San Mateo (Rizal); President and Chief Executive Officer, JFD Construction and Development Corporation; Stock Broker, Urban Corporation Investments, Inc., Makati Stock Exchange; Financial Credit Analyst, Far Eastern bank and Trust Company, Makati City; at naging Analyst for Visayas and Mindanao Regional Offices, Far East Bank and Trust Company.

Ang mga nabanggit na karanasan ni Paeng ay nakatulong sa kanya bilang alkalde para abutin, ipagkaloob ang bawat tulong sa bawat mamamayan ng San Mateo.

Bilang magaling na public servant – makatao, makamasa dahil prayoridad niya ang mamama-yan  ginawa niya ang lahat – bumagyo man o umaraw. Oo hindi naging hadlang kay Paeng ang mga nagdaang malalakas na bagyo na nagdulot ng pagbaha para paglingkuran ang mga kababayan niyang malaki ang tiwala sa kanya.

Hindi lang hanggang sa mga nasalanta ng bagyo o sunog at ano man kalamidad ang ipinararating ni Paeng ang kanyang pagtulong kundi marami rin siyang naging programa patungkol sa edukasyon para sa mga kabataan.

Patunay na hindi pabayang alkalde si Paeng ay ang mga parangal na tinanggap niya tulad ng mga sumusunod; “Bakas Parangal ng Kabayanihan” (Award is granted to the leader of a group that exhibited exemplary acts of heroism beyond their call of duty, upholding the core values of their responsibility to reach out to those in times of disasters.); “DepEd Partners Recognition LGU Stakeholders” (A recognition given by the Department of Education to Local executives that have very significant contribution in classroom construction and other critical support to public education.); at “Seal of Disaster Preparedness” (Conferred by the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) to local government which demonstrates an acceptable level of disaster preparedness and disaster preparedness response before and during calamities, as an official symbol of excellence).

Siyempre, ang lahat ng pagkilalang ito ay utang na loob ni Paeng sa mga taga-San Mateo. Naniniwala ang alkalde na hindi niya nakuha ang mga parangal na ito kung hindi sa suporta ng mga kasamahan niya sa paglingkod sa bayan ng San Mateo.

Kaya hindi na rin tayo nagtataka kung bakit mahal at nagtitiwala kay Paeng ang mga residente rito. Hindi siya kasi iyong tulad ng iba na pulos ngawa pero kulang sa gawa.

Bio-Sketch of Mayor Danilo O. Leyble




HON. DANILO OLAYVAR LEYBLE
Mayor, Antipolo City 



From being the “Abogado ng Masa” to “Alkalde ng Masa  na Naglilingkod nang Lubos” Mayor Nilo O. Leyble’s dedication and the political will to serve the people of Antipolo never falter but instead inspire renewed conviction and added energy to tackle the everyday tasks.


His first 100 days in the office reflects his strength in leadership which not only lies in legislation but also the way he inspires his predecessors. This is quite evident in the numbers of completed, on-going projects and those still in the drawing board of all the sixteen barangays.


Making good his promise of strengthening the social services especially for the marginalized sectors, MayorNilo through the City Social Welfare Department (CSWD) continuously provide medical missions or the “Lingap sa Barangay” even to far flung areas. The creation of 24/7  Action Center, Children in Conflict with the Law (CICL) or the Lingap sa mga Batang Lansangan  which serves as a holding area for those with cases of vagrancy, feeding programs for the senior citizens as well as to the poorest community, daily financial assistance as burial, medicine and other food provision.


To solve the perennial unemployment and underemployment, Mayor Nilo with instructions to the Public Employment Office (PESO) coordinates with other local and national labor agencies and private organizations through networking were able to generate 3,642 jobs from various job facilitation programs such as daily employment facilitation, local and provincial recruitment and through mega and mini-jobs fair in response to the demands of commercial and industrial needs for the economic growth and development of Antipolo City.


Being the primary source of the City’s income that lays the pipeline from which plans and programs are established, upon the Mayor’s instruction, the Business Permits and Licensing Office (BPLO) continue to stabilize a sound financial figure by maximizing and sustain, assess taxes, fees, charges relative to businesspermits and licenses to increase revenues of the City Government. Collection from January to May showed an increase of 9% compared with the previous years figures credited to its fast, efficient and hustle free registration of all kinds of legally organized businesses, trade undertaking and business activity in the City.


As future leaders, Mayor Nilo tapped the participation of the youth in community development  through the Sangguniang Kabataan and enhanced their skills through leadership trainings, seminars, symposiums and developing their characters through a citywide sports programs.


Infrastracture programs such as construction of 28 elementary and high school buildings with additional 93 rooms, were being fasttrack to accommodate more students. This aside from the city wide concreting of road,pathwalks with drainage, stone masonry works, asphalt overlay, construction of canals with curb and gutter,slope protections and rip rapping.


The local chief executive’s concern for the farmers reflects on the various programs and projects being implemented by the City Agriculture Office (CAO) such as the Ginintuang Masaganang Ani Program of the Department of Agriculture, the City government thru the CAO had facilitated the distribution of 331 bags of certified palay seeds to about 331 rice farmers, CAO also started the first Farmers Field School (FFS) for Palay. Check seminar/training. Under this program, farmers are trained to adopt new and appropriate technologies to increase palay production in the city.


In cooperation with the University of Rizal System (URS), a total of 5000 coco seedlings are being raised at the City plant nursery, ready for distribution to qualified beneficiaries. A total of 2000 seed nuts were already delivered to San Ysiro as the initial stage of nursery establishment in the upland area of Antipolo His respect for the senior citizens and the veterans also manifests his belief that the youth of today benefitted from the sacrifices and the contribution of the older generation in the community and extended whatever assistance the city can provide.Mayor Nilo also uplifts the quality of education in both public high school and elementary by providing school materials as bags and notebooks to around 34,100 students to inspire them to study and be a vital instrumentin community development.  


In support of the other medical services aside from the medical missions, the City Health Office with its expanded program in immunization were able to provide vaccine to almost 15,000 infants, the YODO Parang sa Batang Antipolo were also launched for iodine deficiency, Garantisadong Pambata 09 with the Department of Health is a joint undertaking to promote the millennium development goal for child care, other programs included in promoting health are rabies control, new born screening, pap smear malaria operations because to Mayor Nilo “Kalusugan ay Numero Uno”.


His partnership with her loving and supportive wife, Atty. Menchie, brought a new dimension to the women of Antipolo with the launching of the Newly Integrated Ladies Organization (NILO) where she sits as Chairperson together with the wives of other City and Barangay Officials. With 14, 000 strong members from the 16 barangays, NILO believed that women are the glory of creation for their strength cannot be measured and in their hearts lie the true nature of their service.


A man who embraces faith and puts every decision to God where he draws his wisdom and strength, Mayor A man who embraces faith and puts every decision to God where he draws his wisdom and strength, Mayor Nilo is inspired to be a leader who will truly make Antipolo the premiere city in the eastern part of the metro.


A two-term Councilor in 1998-2004, heading the committee on Budget, Finance and Appropriation, then Councilor Leyble is determined to sustain effective supervision of the City Council. He has been a major factor in the promotion of good governance in the City, then in 2004-2007 he ran as Vice-Mayor and won convincingly. At the 2007 reelection he established the trust and the confidence of his constituents as a public servant after he was reelected as Vice-Mayor on a majority vote of confidence. It was a historical mark in the political arena of Antipolo when he was proclaimed with the highest vote ever gotten by a candidate in any position and the only Vice-Mayor that was reelected.


 As a former member of the Interim Office of the Vice-Mayor’s League of the Philippines and at the same time the National Vice-President for Luzon and National Legal Adviser for Luzon, the task at hand was gargantuan. But with the support of his better- half Atty. Carmencita “Menchie” A. Leyble, his efficient and competent office staff, colleagues and constituents of 16 barangays, he was able to get things done. The untimely death of the late Mayor Victor R. Sumulong has compelled the Honorable Mayor to take over the rein of leadership of the City. He took his oath of office last January 8, 2009 which was administered by Department of Interior and Local Government Secretary Ronaldo V. Puno in Quezon City in the presence of all the Antipolo City Officials, Punong Barangays, friends and his lifetime partner and friend, his wife, Atty. Menchie Leyble.

Why the Liberal Party didn't back Salonga's son



MANILA - The Liberal Party of President Benigno Aquino III confirmed Wednesday that it did not endorse the candidacy of Atty. Steve Salonga, son of LP stalwart and former Senate President Jovito Salonga, for the position of governor of Rizal.
In a statement, LP Director General Gladys Sta. Rita confirmed the party had not issued a Certificate of Nomination and Acceptance (CONA) for any official LP candidate for governor in Rizal.

Salonga is running as an independent against former Rizal Governor Rebecca "Nini" Ynares of the Nationalist People's Coalition and another independent candidate, Anamariela Bush.

Salonga, who is an LP member, earlier told the Philippine Daily Inquirer that he felt abandoned by his own party after it refused to endorse his candidacy. He also questioned the LP's disturbing and aggressive alliances” with dynasties and traditional politicians at the local level.

LP Secretary General Mel Sarmiento said the LP "makes decisions on who should be its candidates in certain areas based on careful scrutiny of their qualifications, track record, organizational capability, as well as their ability to sustain a campaign."
He said the party has to consider not just local politics but the future of President Aquino's reform agenda.

"This requires that, at both the local and national levels, the party's candidates should be committed to this reform agenda of inclusive growth and good governance. This is the reason why the LP enters into temporary alliances or coalitions with certain individuals and political formations," he explained.
In the case of Rizal, he said the party studied carefully the political dynamics in Rizal and decided against fielding its candidate for the gubernatorial post.
Sarmiento said the LP acknowledges the contributions of former Senate President Salonga not only to the party but to the nation as a whole. Salonga has been afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease for the last two years and is being fed through a tube after he suffered a stroke.

"We consider him an elder statesman whose contributions to nation-building have been immense. The party will always be grateful to him for his able and competent leadership of it over the years," Sarmiento said.
He added that the LP understands the younger Salonga's position. "We wish him all the best in his candidacy," he said.
