PRRC, NHA relocate another 60 ISFs from Estero de Magdalena

Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission (PRRC) relocated another batch of informal settler families (ISFs) along the stretch of Estero de Magdalena in Manila on Tuesday, July 10, 2018 with the help of the Local Inter-Agency Committee of Manila and the Local Government of Trece Martires, Cavite.
PRRC Executive Director Jose Antonio "Pepeton" E. Goitia said 60 families were transferred to their new houses in Summer Home, Trece Martires, Cavite.
From November 2015 to July 3, PRRC already transferred 1,049 ISFs out of the target 2,015 to various relocation sites in Bulacan and Cavite.
Goitia said that before the relocation, the families were accompanied and assisted by PRRC in various community dialogues and ocular inspections as part of their social preparation.
They were also provided with trucks and vans as they move to the relocation site.
The Department of Social Welfare and Development – Manila likewise provided each family with food supplies such as rice, canned goods and coffee.
Other entitlements included livelihood assistance and disaster preparedness training.
Goitia further added that Mayor Sagun would spearhead series of job fairs for the families in addition to livelihood training assistance.
Once all the ISFs are removed, the PRRC could begin the construction of the linear park along the estero as it did in Estero de Pandacan, Estero de Paco, Maytunas Creek, Estero de San Miguel and many other once-polluted waterways.
The government allotted P17 million for the rehabilitation of Estero de Magdalena into a clear waterway with easements developed into a linear park useful for community access and recreation.
The families watched and consented to the dismantling of their informal settlements with smiles on their faces as they moved to Cavite.
Trece Martires Mayor Melandres G. De Sagun welcomed the families in Cavite and ensured that their houses were in good condition, and accessible to important facilities like hospital and school.

World-class natural remedy for Filipina beauty & wellness expert’s crowning glory

Hair loss is a concern for both men and women. It can have a devastating effect to anyone who experiences it. 

According to Web MD, the average adult head has about 100,000 to 150,000 strands of hair and loses up to 100 of them a day, which is normal. As people age, their rate of hair growth slows, and they can experience losing more than hundreds of strands which is quite alarming. So what can you do to prevent it? 

For beauty and wellness expert, Cory Quirino, embracing wellness is the first step to help improve the hair’s condition and make people look younger.

“If you choose to have a wellness lifestyle, then expect wonderful changes such as radiant skin, energy, and a general sense of well-being,” she emphasizes. “In time, you will realize that you have successfully delayed the aging process.”

The beauty and wellness expert says that choosing wellness as a lifestyle includes eating nutritious food, exercising, getting a good sleep, drinking generous amounts of water, managing stress, getting enough sunshine, and above all, staying positive. 

On top of a daily healthy regimen, a supplement is necessary to maintain a healthy hair and scalp. Many people opt to use chemical-based products. But for her, the use of natural products is a must and the best solution for hair loss.

“There are hair treatment products in the market today that claim to be effective but their ingredients could contain chemicals that may prove harmful with long-term use,” she enthuses. “Choose natural. Say NO to harsh chemicals and let nature do the makeover,” she emphasizes.

Natural ingredients such as virgin coconut oil (VCO) and aloe vera are loaded with beneficial properties, which boost the health of the scalp and hair. These and much more natural herbs and essential oils can be found in NOVUHAIR, a topical scalp lotion with 19 natural ingredients that work in synergy to help prevent hair loss, which the beauty and wellness expert approves of.

“Even if I have been blessed with thick hair, I know that it has to be cared for,” she maintains. “I use NOVUHAIR topical scalp lotion once daily in the evening before bedtime. Next morning, I apply it on my scalp again, then a shampoo after 30 minutes. Those who wish to further thicken the hair, it is a must to also use the shampoo and conditioner daily.”  

Eventually, she noticed impressive effects after using this breakthrough product: significant lessening of hair fall, abundant growth of tress, and the return of locks’ luster.

Apart from being effective, it’s a very safe solution, too. A local clinical study has proven that NOVUHAIR has no adverse side effects with continuous use. 

Moreover, NOVUHAIR is not just for those who experience hair loss. Younger people, especially the millennials, can use it for maintenance or prevention if hair loss runs in the family.

Cory recommends NOVUHAIR to everyone, especially to those who want to maintain their hair the best way they can. For her, this globally-competitive natural product answers the needs of a discriminating, health-conscious public.

Born on August 11, the granddaughter of the late Philippine President Elpidio Quirino is an author, and television and radio host. She has been a strong advocate for natural health, beauty, and wellness for more than two decades.

“Twenty years ago, it was as simple a goal as weight loss. But when I saw the dramatic effect it had on my vitality and complexion, I knew that this was the good path to take. For those who wish the same things I wanted then, this would be just as easy to embrace,” Cory recalls. 

She wrote a series of best-seller books entitled “Forever Young”, which feature beauty and health tips as well as her own workout programs. Likewise, she also made a fitness video called “Cory Quirino’s Celebrity Workout for Beginners”.

For her, living in the 21st century has its challenges. She says: “The best way to live long and be well is to live a natural life.” 

Truly, for a natural woman like Cory, her crowning glory deserves nothing but a world-class natural remedy that is NOVUHAIR.

NOVUHAIR is available at Mercury Drug and other leading drugstores nationwide. You may also have the product delivered right at your doorstep through Lazada at https://bit.ly/2Jc92Vk

BALAG AT ANGUD - Layeta Bucoy

Is a musical based on the life of protest installation artist JUNYEE by playwright LayetaBucoy.

Believing in the power of the arts to influence and transform people, seventeen years old Junyee sets up his original artwork at the lobby of the Palace Hotel which his father tasked him to manage. Referred to as garbage by their clients, Luis tries to get rid of the artwork. Junyee protests as the artwork is his way of enlightening people on the need of caring for the mountains of Agusan. Their argument leads to Junyee leaving home in pursuit of his art.

Without his father's support, Junyee makes use of his artistry in order to fend for himself. He lands a job as a makeup artist in a funeral parlor. While working for the funeral parlor, Junyee receives news of his father's death. Junyee goes home and applies makeup on his father's corpse. Junyee then studies Fine Arts at the University of the Philippines. He becomes one of Prof. Abueva's apprentices, enjoying free board and lodging plus a regular allowance from the respected artist. While studying sculpture under Prof. Abueva's wing. Junyee tries to incorporate protest materials against the Marcos dictatorship in one of the sculptures that they are crafting. This prompts Prof. Abueva to give Junyee his freedom as he feels that Junyee should already be able to grow as an artist on his own. Junyee's vision of creating a sculpture incorporated with materials coming from protesters finally sees the light when he creates Balag. Still with no regular job and living in the slums while creating artworks which he cannot sell, on his thirtieth birthday, Junyee is visited by the ghost of Luis reminding him that like his artworks, his life has not amounted to anything but garbage.

After several years, with the onslaught of typhoons Milenyo and Reming, Junyee is given the opportunity to create an artwork at the front lawn of the Cultural Center of the Philippines. He gathers the felled trees around CCP complex, intending to plant them upside down. Unfortunately, while in the middle of creating his art work, people looted the trees for firewood. Junyee sets out to replace them with ten thousand angud - " skulls " or what's left of trees victimized by small time logging. During the launch of Angud: A Forest Once, Junyee falls off the stage. On the brink of death, the ghost of Luis fetches him. Junyee refuses to go with Luis for he realizes that his art work lacks one more angud. Luis insists on taking him to his death for what's the point of living to create art which is only deemed as firewood and garbage?
