New BIR Juggernaut

(Atty. APA chairs Acyatan & Co., CPAs-DFK International is PICPA past president and Hall-of-Famer, past chair of ASEAN Federation of CPAs, and ACPAPP Lifetime Achievement Awardee). STOCK SALES: We use to advise our clients who are selling real properties owned by their wholly owned corporation to just sell the shares of stock instead of the corporate assets that it owns. Thus the sale of the realties are not subject to the 6% creditable withholding tax since technically there is no such realty sale. In fact, what is being sold are the capital stock of the corporation. That tax-saving scheme is no longer available as BIR already plugged the legal loophole. Per Rev. Regulations No. 6-2013 - the sale, barter, exchange or other disposition of (corporate) shares not traded through the Local Stock Exchange shall be taxable using the fair value of the shares of stock (at the time of sale). In determining such value the Adjusted Net Asset Method shall be used whereby all asset and liabilities are adjusted to fair market value. The net adjusted asset minus the liability values is the indicated value of the equity. OFFICIAL INFO: Confidentiality of information seems to be the order of the day at the Bureau of Internal Revenue. There is nothing illegal with this considering that the Freedom of Information bill was not approved in Congress, hence there is no such law as yet. Under Rev. Memorandum Order No. 11-2013, the BIR prescribed the procedure for processing and responding to requests for official information or documents from

opinions unlimited
Atty. TONY (APA) ACYATAN
the Bureau. All requests for official information or documents from BIR by government agencies, or by private entities shall be directly addressed to the Commissioner. Similarly, all responses thereto must be coursed through the BIR boss. Any Illegal or Unauthorized Disclosure/Divulgence of Official or Confidential Info or failure to maintain the Integrity and Security of Official Documents and Info both constitute grave offense punishable under the BIR Code of Conduct. TRENDING: With the full-scale campaign of the President in favor of his senatorial team it appears that the P-Noy Team is poised to get at least nine winners. Still fighting to get into the winning column are Senate returnees Jun Magsaysay (son of the most revered president Magsaysay is my Guy) and Jamby Madrigal, and Riza Hontiveros. UNAs Binay and JV have the brightest chances followed by reelectionist Honasan, then Zubiri and Jack Enrile.

The result of the senatorial race hinges on the performance (and endorsements) of the winning local candidates. There are provinces, cities and towns where the incumbents (or relatives) are unopposed. That situation is a big plus to the senatorial candidates of the same party assuming that the winning incumbents have commanded their campaigners to support allied senators. The scenario spells trouble for the independents. VOTE-BUYING: Eleven days before election date there are no indications as yet that vote-buying may become massive. But the politicians know by experience that the few votes available for sale might spell the difference between winning or losing. Those who are selling are immorally selling their souls for a few measly pesos. Let us remember that politicians who are prone to vote-buying will surely recoup their investment through graft and corruption! For incumbent candidates, voters must look at their performance records, like programs accomplished or legislations approved. In Lucena City a returning councilor was the most productive legislator of his time. He printed his authored resolutions into a compendium for everyone to read. His name: Councilor BENITO J BRIZUELA. My family and associates will vote for him 100%. WISDOM: The deeper our roots in the soil of service, the more abundant fruit on the tree of leadership.

Political Speculations, Pres. Aquino in CS again & Kris Aquino may not vote straight Team P-Noy
I believe retired Archbishop Oscar Cruz who publicly revealed recently that he learned from a reliable source that presidential sister, Kris Aquino, will run for Vice President in the 2016 election. This may be the reason why all of a sudden, Kris is endorsing candidates in the different parts of the country. She is seemingly making preparation to have leaders in different places from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Mega Star Sharon Cuneta is also doing the same because her husband would also like to run for Vice President but may be asked to run for Senator and be the Senate President. The May 13, 2013 is indeed a prelude to the 2016 presidential election. That is why even if he does not need to do so personally, President Benigno S. Aquino is campaigning all over the country for the Liberal Partys candidates especially the Team P-Noy for senators. I guess, if Cynthia Villar wins, her husband Senator Manny Villar will run again for President to redeem himself from the C-5 road fiasco. He might think

from my window
nenita fuentebella-peones
that the people have already forgiven him. NP Senator Villar may run with Senator Bongbong Marcos as his running mate. Vice President Jejomar Binay will run for President as he said so long time ago and I guess he may have either Senator Jinggoy Estrada or Chiz Escudero as his running mate. Lakas may also field Senator Bong Revilla for President. His party can just choose his running mate depending on the result of the election. This election is very important for the

present and the future of the country. Let us study who of all the candidates in the national and local level can best serve the interest and well-being of the people by looking at their qualifications, accomplishments in their homeground, performance in Congress and their character. Newcomers can also present their credentials and personal records. ***** For the second time, President Noynoy Aquino is here in the province to campaign for the Liberal Partys candidates. We cant blame him. Camarines Sur is composed of 33 municipalities and two cities and there is only one mayor who is from the Liberal Party. That is Naga Citys Mayor John Bongat. The Liberal Partys candidate for Governor is Atty. Anselmo Cadiz. But why are the Liberal Partys candidates for Congressman in the 5th district (Rinconada), Cong. Fortuno and Aga Muhlach in the 4th district (Partido) not supporting Atty. Cadiz? They are

The politicos again

Writing about partisan politics, the brand enthusiastically practiced by our politicos, is never a satisfying pastime. If you take politics with all its failings seriously, you may end up with a big headache. My secret is, I dont. Their world which is apart from ours, is inhabited by men and women, some of them from the Wild, who wont hesitate to devour you, head, body and all. The finest among them, and there are some, are, however , in the minority. Of politicians, former Sen. Rene Saguisag, in a recent interview with GMA, said that in the US, men of noble character enter the ministry but the finest among them go into politics. I wish this could prove true in the Philippines, I mean, the presence of men described by the former senator as in habiting every nook and corner of the US. We must have some of them here. But are we that cursed that what thrive within our shores are the opposite of what

America has in abundance in its bosom. Those who believe that there has been an improvement in the quality of our politicos may be in for disappointment. The common perception is that there is little or no improvement at all in their stock. I hope I am wrong. So, what does it mean? It means that with the deteriorating quality of our

elected public officials, public service will likewise deteriorate. Amen. The losers will be you and me and the whole country. Right now, this land is seemingly lying prostrate on the ground. The plight of the so-called run-away OFWs in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and right here at home, the death of four dumpsite workers in Metro Manila buried by tons of stinking garbage, clearly illustrate the suffering of our people. I think it is only in poor countries like the Philippines where you can feast your eyes on such tragedy. The four workers were part of villages surrounding the dumpsite, making a living collecting garbage. Years ago, the world was shocked by reports of several families buried by a landslide at a dumpsite in Payatas. The picture was brought into the living rooms of people outside the country by

Aquino inaugurates newly upgraded Naga City hospital

The Department of Health allocated P15 million under its Health Facilities Enhancement Program for the upgrading of the hospitals main building. Under the P15-million upgrade, the DOH enhanced the Naga City Hospitals operating room and delivery room complex. In addition to the facility upgrading, the DOH also allotted P3 million for the purchase and installation of modern medical equipment such as portable anesthesia machine, ECG machine, and oxygen therapy set. Aside from enhancing the medical capabilities of the Naga City Hospital, the President said the expansion and rehabilitation works of the Bicol Medical Center, also located in Naga City, is also ongoing to widen its services especially to poor Bicolanos. He added that this initiative is being supported by the DOH and the office of Sen. Franklin Drilon. The President pointed out that providing the health care and social services needs of Filipinos, as well as increasing the budgets of agencies providing health care services andsocial support were among his top priorities when he assumed office in 2010. Nariyan ang pagtataas natin ng pitumput walong porsyento sa budget ng DOH, at ng dalawandaan at animnaput walong porsyento naman para sa DSWD, he said.

Students are like fires waiting to be lit. This was how Aloysius Francis Bresnan, 16, began his winning oration at the very first Voice of Asia international speech competition held on April 17 at the Emilio Aguinaldo College auditorium in Taft Avenue in Manila. His words rang true when he shone the brightest among five other contenders from around the continent, taking home the grand prize and the honor of being the very first champion of the Voice of Asia. The Naga City native proudly represented the Philippines alongside finalists Frinsen Johnny Hutagalung of Indonesia; Feras Abdulrahman Al Anazi for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; Dzung Hoang of Vietnam; Ye Eun Park of South Korea; and Liu Hui Tse of Taiwan. The Voice of Asia is the first of its kind speech competition in the country that opened to high school students nationwide late last year. The national finals were held on March 19 also at the EAC auditorium. Bresnan competed with 19 other talented orators from different schools all over the Philippines before earning the privilege of representing the country on Wednesday. As champion, Bresnan took home a cash prize of $500 and full scholarship for a dual degree program from the Emilio Aguinaldo College (EAC) and The Manila Times College (TMTC). Meanwhile, South Koreas Park finished second, while Taiwans Tse landed third place. Both finalists also won cash prizes and full scholarships from EAC and TMTC as

tenders. Clearly, Bresnans feat was no easy task for it entailed lots of hard work for many months on top of completing his requirements for high school graduation. Sheepishly, he confessed to The Sunday Times Magazine, Im very relieved its finally over because I can actually go on summer vacation now! After graduating, all my classmates were very relaxed, but I had to get ready for the competition. He also graduated as first honorable mention of his batch and gained leadership awards as well as recognitions in public speaking and cultural performances. But he quickly added that his happiness outweighs his eagerness to take a much-deserved break. I am very happy not just for myself but for my mom and dad and the rest of my family who have been very supportive of me. Im also very happy for my coach who worked with me, and that all our hard work paid off. Inspiring the youth According to Bresnan, the Voice of Asia also strengthened his love for public speaking. I simply relish the feeling of talking in front of a crowd. It gives an adrenaline rush. Sometimes I also get very nervous. Earlier in the competition, my hands were really cold, but once I got out there and started to speak, it was exhilarating, he expressed. While he originally planned to take up Medicine to become a doctor, it seems that Bresnans win at the Voice of Asia might add on to his ambitions. Now that Ive realized

A Brighter Child This Summer

A 10-month school year can be demanding for your child, and you may want to pamper him with play and rest this summer break. However, a two-month break without study may eventually bring more stress once the next school year starts. It is because our brain needs to be regularly prepared for mental exercises. Brain activities help the brain develop stronger. Even if your child is already enjoying the summer vacation with fun physical activities, it is still imperative to involve him in worthwhile learning activities, too. By doing so, you can help your child start the upcoming school year with confidence and excitement.

Kumon: More than a summer program

Kumon, a learning method that is available in 47 countries and regions worldwide, promotes just that. With 30 to 45 minutes of learning spent everyday, children, regardless of age, can continue to exercise their thinking muscles. This enables them to learn and still have time to enjoy summer. More than developing academic abilities, the Kumon Method helps children develop good study habits wherever they are be it at home, in the Kumon Center, or even when they are on vacation. Through individualized instruction, Kumon allows students to study levels that are just right for them. Students work at their own pace and move to the next topics only when they have developed the needed abilities. Kumon Instructors challenge the students to study materials that are beyond their current grade level; thus, students may comfortably advance, making them confident and prepared when they inevitably go back to school. In spite of the season, learning should never stop. Mastery of skills can only be possible when a child continuously learns. Kumon fosters not only the childrens academic aptitude, but also their zest and hunger to learn more.

Pili, Camarines Sur - The Agricultural Training Institute (ATI), the extension and training arm of the Department of Agriculture will soon have its own office and regional training complex at the diversion road at Barangay San Agustin of this municipality. The ceremonial ground breaking ceremonies was held onsite on April 16th and graced by Dr. Asterio P. Saliot, ATI national director together with the other ATI center directors from the different regions of the country, DA staff and local officials. The site is part of the DAs regional nursery and is only about 500 meters away from the DA regional office. The DA through former regional executive director Jose V. Dayao and with the concurrence of secretary Proceso J. Alcala has approved the request of ATI through its center director, Efren C. Sabularse to utilize a portion of the vacant lot adjacent to the regional nursery for their center. The memorandum of agreement signed by then DA regional executive director Dr. Jose V. Dayao and ATI director Saliot on June 18, 2012 stipulates that the DA has allowed the use of the lot at no cost for an initial period of ten 10) years , subject to renewal for same or longer term but not to exceed twenty

years in every renewal. According to Dir. Saliot, the one-storey building to be constructed on the site will not only serve as an office but a learning venue, training site and on-farm tourism. He explained that part of the vision Agri-tecture of ATI is to transform farms into farm tourism. Sabularse related that the first regional ATI center in Bicol was housed in 1989 inside the Camarines Sur State Agricultural College CSSAC (now Central Bicol State Agricultural University

) while the farmers training center was cons-tructed at the compound of Bicol College of Agriculture and Fisheries in Guinobatan, Albay. In 2004, with the merger of ATI and the farmers training center, the ATI office and personnel were transferred to BUCAF. But of late BUCAF has notified ATI that it would be using the building it has for its own development plan thus, the need to transfer to a new site.

Veterans Bank 1Q Net Income hits 484M

Philippine Veterans Bank (PVB) unaudited net income for the first quarter of 2013 was reported at P484 million, already surpassing the 2013 target of P353 million and 2012 yearend net income figure of P355 million. PVB officials said that substantial gains from securities trading activities augmented the interest income on the loan side which was affected by the prevailing historical low interest rates. In terms of total assets, PVBs total resources were at P56.93 billion as of the same period, P1.98 billion higher than the P54.95 billion level as of December 2012. Bank officials cited the growth to the increase in the Banks deposits, which found their way to incremental loans and marketable securities. Were very satisfied with the Banks performance this early in the year, thanks to the support of our clients. We are optimistic that the Bank will meet or even surpass its growth target of P60B total assets by yearend. On the income side, we have already surpassed last years annual net income of P355 million. said PVB President & CEO Ricardo A. Balbido Jr. PVBs capital also increased to P9.5 billion, up by 34% from P7.1 billion as of 2012 year-end, mostly due to retained earnings and Net Unrealized Gains on Available for Sale Financial Assets. Its latest Capital Adequacy Ratio was at 19.03%, much higher than the BSPs minimum requirement of 10%. PVB is owned by some 384,000 Filipino WWII veterans, widows & heirs. Twenty percent (20%) of the private banks net income is annually given to the Board of Trustees for the Veterans of World War II (BTVWWII) which manages programs for the benefit of the WWII veterans & their surviving families.

interruption or brownout especially during the canvassing of votes. There are also stand-by generators in polling precincts to ensure that brownouts will not hamper the ongoing poll. Members of the local media who were not able to get their accreditation, will have a limited opportunity to enter polling precincts and offices but are not barred from covering the said event. Accredited members of the media have more access to news sources and stories but it does not mean that those who were not able to secure one, will not be able to cover. We just have to remember a few things like taking photos or videos of the ballots, Marpuri added. As for the signal jammers during the canvassing of votes and its subsequent release, Marpuri said the Comelec is now doing the necessary precautions and have alerted the Bureau of Customs in Manila to be specifically watchful of said gadgets. He also allayed fears that the jammers can create a significant damage to the election results, clarifying that the jammers can delay the sending of results but it can not tamper the outcome of the said political exercise.

DENR pursues better assisted LGU in forest land use planning

In conformity with existing laws and in order to train LGUs in developing a sound basis for managing their Forest and Forest Land (FFL) assets through to the establishment of the best areas of these lands and allocate them to responsible resource managers under different forms of tenure, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources Region V conducts a workshop with the Land Evaluation Party leading the activity. A new co-management scheme is underway for pilot LGUs such as Tinambac, Camarines Sur, Jose Panganiban, Camarines Norte, Castilla. Sorsogon. Under the new scheme, the LGUs will subject itself to a planning process with DENR providing guidance aimed at ensuring their respective FFLs remain to be their assets and source of sustained income, goods and services. DENR Regional Executive Director Gilbert Gonzales sees the comanagement scheme as an opportunity for both DENR and LGU to be equipped technically. He believes the process is essential for any LGU seeking to improve its basic services. For an LGU to avail itself of the technical assistance from DENR, they will have to first send a letter of intent to DENR indicating their willingness to participate in a series of workshops that will rationalize the allocation of FFL areas. The DENR will seal an agreement with the LGU to provide technical assistance. They will also help form a technical working group from both the LGU and the DENR. The LGU will allocate budget for the planning workshops until the FLUP gains legitimacy through an Ordinance passed for its implementation. The FLUP will make an essential component of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP). The CLUP in turn will serve as a sound basis for determining investments, conservation and development priorities set by the LGU.

the good of others. Fully aware that our mission is to be Christs disciples, we will experience pain and persecution. Tirona reflected on lack or the absence of Catholic Might being a potent force to influence the life of a community that must be manifested in a persistent pursuit of Gospel values in the mid of cultural and social challenges, he said. Many Catholics witness corruption but fail to denounce and curb them. They are overwhelmed by fear of politicians and helplessness in the face of a corrupt political system, he added. Tirona said faith must be recognized as personal but never private for the Catholic Might to be palpable in the communities. We will be able to move forward as true soldiers of Christ when we fortify Catholic Might and act as one Church. He advocated social conscience which is an act of applying our knowledge of the common good to what we might do, to what we are doing or to what we have done. Tirona, as examples of social conscience in action, cited advocacy for the protection of the environment, the spirit of volunteerism of nongovernment organizations, and the exercise of ones profession with service as prime consideration. He asked all Catholics to cast a meaningful vote, one that will bring the social order in consonance with Gospel values. A Catholic Vote is free, informed and evangelized vote. When a Catholic casts his/her vote, she/he participates not only in the nation, but in building of Gods kingdom if his/her decision is in accord with the Gospel. Tirona foresees that through a Catholic Vote we will fulfill our solemn responsibility to become witnesses of faith that bears fruit in our public decisions and political choices. - PNA

tirona NAGA CITY -- Differentiated from the White and Purple Votes, here comes the Catholic Vote which is choosing candidates using Catholic lens other than ideological one. Archbishop Rolando Tria Tirona, author of the 74-page booklet entitled The Catholic Vote, Top 30 Questions launched Wednesday here, explained that from the contents of the booklet come the ideals and concepts of the Catholic teachings and experiences. Tirona acknowledged that the booklet could serve as a manual for group discussion in the Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV) in its continuing education activities. He said the contents of the booklet must be reflected upon even though reflection may open Pandoras Box in order to confront and know oneself. The booklet is a three-part thematic reflection On the Catholic Life, On the Catholic Vote and On Catholic Public Square. Tirona enjoined the Catholics to embrace, practice and spread the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, which includes the renunciation of abortion, contraception, same-sex marriages, and euthanasia. He talked about a Catholic Heart that endures pain not for its own sake but for

while their husbands are working. We have specifically designed the livelihood project for those mothers who are left at home. At least they have a chance to earn something while at home. For each boneless bangus, they will have P5 each. The more boneless bangus that they can produce, the more earnings that they can have, Guialani said in an interview. Aside from the aforementioned project, Guialani is also encouraging mothers to put up a backyard garden where different vegetables can be planted. Guialani said that he has already spoken to the local officials of DepEd here and requested for their assistance in helping the mothers put up a backyard garden. Located at the university belt area, the produce of the mothers can be sold to teachers in adjacent schools and universities. Keeping them busy and giving their hands something to work on will take their attention away from selling illegal drugs. The root of engaging in the illegal drug trade is somehow rooted in

may 5, 2013
their inability to look for decent sources of living. I hope that this project will be the start of these positive changes, Guialani added. Sitio Sagrada Familia located in Peafrancia Avenue, Naga City, known before as Isla Sison was notorious as a place for illegal drugs vending. In the past, the said sitio has been a regular subject of police entrapment and buy bust operations. Guialani, together with the city government of Naga is bent on removing the harsh tag and make the best changes to convert it into a better community. Meanwhile, Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption (VACC) Chairman Dante Jimenez will donate one computer set at the NCPO extension office.

a question of privilege . . .
television In a study of marginalized residents of Legazpi City conducted by Bicol College in Daraga, Albay, almost 80 per cent of those surveyed said that those whom they had installed in office did not do anything beneficial for them. The respondents were senior citizens, slumdwellers, fishermen and laborers. They attributed their plight to their public officials who, they said, had betrayed and abandoned them. There is the hope, however, that things will brighten up the coming polls may produce men and women of sterling qualities, those whom we have devoutly longed for all these years. That is our peoples saving grace. Even if the night is pitch dark, they wont give up hope. That hope sustained our people during the four brutal years of the Japanese Occupation and the 20 years of Marcos dictatorship. This stubborn character is what we need to keep the country from sinking despite the presence of todays brand of politicos.

tered household beneficiaries under the program. Today, more than 3.9 million households are benefiting from the program. More and more Filipinos are also being covered by the expanded coverage of the governments universal health care program. The President noted that more enhanced medical professional services are also being given to the less fortunate Filipinos. The government has so far deployed more than 50,500 nurses in different parts of the country under the DOHs RN Heals Program, the President said. The Naga City Hospital is a non-profit, service oriented institution catering to the health care needs of poor Naguenos. Licensed to operate as a primary hospital, the Naga City Hospital has a bed capacity of 16 but actually implementing 29 beds. There are 10 beds for medicine, 10 for pediatrics, four for obstetrics, two for isolation room and three for infirmary. A primary hospital, Naga City Hospitals services are limited to providing firsthand contact emergency cases and confinement for simple cases. The Naga City Hospital upgrading under the new DOH classification minimizes referrals to other tertiary hospitals in the medical management of tertiary medical cases. With the upgrade, the hospital could now provide wider laboratory services for more patients requiring diagnostic examinations. As BEMONC (Basic Emergency Obstetrics and Newborn Care) hospital, the Naga City Hospital is now a referral hospital for emergency medical neonatal and obstetrical care cases. Among those who attended the inauguration were Interior and local Government Secretary Manuel Roxas, Transportation and Communication Secretary Joseph Emilio Abaya and Health Secretary Enrique Ona. - PND

supporting the Nacionalista Partys candidate Migs Villafuerte for Governor? Why are they not following President Aquino on this matter? ***** It was reported in the Philippine Daily Inquirer dated May 3, 2013 that the Yellow Ribbon Movement and People Power Volunteers for Reborn have tapped not only the presidential sister, Kris Aquino, but also Sharon Cuneta (wife of Sen. Francis Pangilinan) and Dingdong Dantes for its four day tour provinces Rock the Vote to support President Aquinos Team P-Noy slate, especially Bam Aquino and Risa Hontiveros. The headline of this news report says: Kris hints she may not vote straight Team P-Noy. Well, we are of the same thinking. I will vote for independent-minded Senators to keep democracy alive and in order to have a check and balance system in the government as provided in the Constitution. Ill vote for a mixed ticket. Kris may have another reason but we are the same in not voting for a straight ticket. ***** I do not believe that endorsement of actors and actresses can make a congressional candidate win in an election because the voters are intelligent. The Fuentebellas had been winning without any endorsement of actors and actresses because the people are satisfied with their accomplishments that serve them. Actors and actresses are crowd-getters. They entertain. But after their performances, they go away and the people are left to themselves. It does not guarantee that their audience will become their political followers. I recall, so many actors and actresses came to endorse the candidacy of presidential candidate Manny Villar, here upon invitation of Gov. L-Ray Villafuerte, but Villar lost here in the province. Remember the group of Willie Revillame together with many entertainers? He was even endorsed by Dolphy and others. I wish the actor and actresses that will endorse Aga Muhlach in the 4th district wil tell what is his educational attainment, his plans and programs and track record. They should not equate him with successful actors like Vilma Santos because she has her husband Senator Ralph Recto and at least she finished high school. Senators Bong Revilla and Lito Lapid has been elected Provincial Governors before aspiring to be a law-maker.

how much I love public speaking, my path might change a little bit. I might not just be a regular doctor anymore, but maybe, I can also go into motivational speaking on the side. Bresnan thought about this because he also realized the power of public speaking in inspiring people and effecting change. I think if we can be courageous enough, teenagers like us can to stand up and talk about [societal] issues that affect us. And when others youths see us, just like they did in Voice of Asia, they might be inspired to voice out their own opinions and be heard on the things that are important to them. He expressed hope that the next Voice of Asia competition will be bigger and will encourage more high school students to be involved in discussing the very issues that affect them. Bresnan bytes With youth and education as the theme for the first Voice of Asia competition, Bresnan and the other finalists were asked such questions as, Does the Internet makes teachers unnecessary?; Should Asian students read more Asian books rather than European books? Who is more effective in making you learn, a teacher who lectures through the whole class all the time or a teacher who works with you individually? One very interesting question that came Bresnans way was, Should students be forced to compete in at least one sport? While schools generally encourage physical activities among students, he bravely answered in the negative and took the stand that sports should never be enforced on the youth. He added that mandating a student to go into something that does not interest him will simply make him feel inadequate. It will not help them, he stressed. Students should be able to pursue instead what they want, be it the arts, sports or academics. For this interview, Brenan took the opportunity to share his opinion on the new K-to-12 education program initiated by Education Secretary Brother Armin Luistro. While it will no longer affect him, he disclosed that he agrees with the new framework. I have read a lot about it. And I am for it because we are the only country in Asia that is not following that program, he explained. So I believe that we should have it not only to make students globally competitive but also to give Filipino students the opportunity

bikol reporter
to study in other countries with the same kind of educational system. He further lauded the twoyear senior high school component of K to 12, which is equivalent to a two-year college course. This will benefit many Filipinos who urgently need jobs because they can go to work right away. He is grateful for being able to share his thoughts on the state of Philippine education

through the Voice of Asia. I think education is important because it is the best tool that you can have to make a change in our society. Its not about knowing a lot of things but its about how you apply those things and make the world a better place. _________________
