Councilor Aldrin Soriano: IBA-IBANG HAMON AT MGA MAGAGAWA NG KABATAAN SA GITNA NG PANDEMYA*

 IBA-IBANG HAMON AT MGA MAGAGAWA NG KABATAAN SA GITNA NG PANDEMYA*

Sa kabila ng ating mga pinagdaraanan ngayon, magandang araw pa rin po sa ating lahat at sana ay maayos ang inyong kalagayan ngayon.

Maligayang pagdiriwang ng pandaigdigang araw ng kabataan.

Sa tala ng Kagawaran ng Kalusugan kahapon, pumalo na sa abot isandaan at apatnapong libo ang kabuaang kumpirmadong kaso sa Pilipinas…

Dito sa atin sa Pangasinan, ayon sa Pangasinan Provincial Health Office kahapon, mayroon nang naitalang dalawandaan at walumpong kumpirmadong kaso ng COVID, kung saan limampo dito ang aktibong kaso.

Ayon sa ASEAN post kahapon, ang Pilipinas na ang nangunguna sa pinakamaraming kumpirmadong kaso at pinakamaraming aktibong kaso ng COVID-19 sa Timog SIlangang Asya.

Magpipitong buwan na nang ipatupad yung quarantine measures sa bansa.

Marami ang apektado nito- mga buhay at kabuhayan.

Ang ating mga malilit na negosytante na napipilitang magsara dahil sa natamong lugi.

Ang ating mga kaanak na nawawalan ng trabaho.

Ang ating mga kapwa kabataang napipilitang huminto sa pag-aaral dahil sa kawalan ng pambili ng gadget.

Ang ating mga kapwa kabataang biktima ng pang-abuso o rape sa loob mismo ng kanilang tahanan.

Ang ating mga kapwa kabataang napipilitang pumasok sa iligal na trabaho o pagbebenta ng mga malalaswang larawan para lamang maitawid ang gutom.

Ang ating mga magulang na hindi mapanatag sa kasiguraduhan ng kalidad ng edukasyon na makukuha ng mga estudyante ngayong pasukan.

Hindi malayo ang kanilang sitwasyon sa sitwasyon natin. O baka mayroon tayong kakilala na isa sa mga nabanggit kong sitwasyon.

Sa kabila ng mga hamon na ito, marami ang nagpakita ng determinasyon para makatulong sa kanilang kapwa sa gitna ng pandemya.

Malaking porsyento ng mga nagpasimula ng proyektong pantulong sa ating mga kapwa Pilipino ay mga kabataan.

Maraming mga opisyal ng SK ang nanguna sa pagbibigay tulong sa ating mga kapwa kabataan.

Sa ating kinakaharap na hamon sa kalusugan at kabuhayan dulot ng pandemya,huwag nating maliitin ang magagawa ng kabataan.

Ngayong taon, hinihimok ng United Nations ang lahat ng kabataan na maging bahagi, makilahok sa global action. Ayon sa inilabas na pahayag ng UN, nais nito na paganahin o i-enable ang pakikilahok ng mga kabataan sa pormal na mekanismong politikal.

Paliwanag nila, kung mas maraming kabataan sa politika, mas marami ang maiaambag na mga bago at sustainable na mga pulisiya. Sabi pa ng UN, maibabalik daw ng mga kabataan ang tiwala sa pamahalaan at pamamahala ng gobyerno.

Sisimulan natin sa local o community, saka tayo hahantong sa national o pambansa, at panghuli yung global o pandaigdigang aksyon.

Pero marami siguro sa inyo magtatanong kung paano natin magagawa yun. Iyon ang dahilan kung para saan ang webinar na ito, para maihanda tayo.

Kailangan nating maging mas malikhain para magbigay ng serbisyo sa ating bayan.

Gamitin natin ang ating social media sa pagbibigay ng makabuluhan, tama, at napapanahong impormasyon o balita sa ating kapwa kabataan.

Makibahagi tayo sa usapan, nang may respeto sa bawat isa.

Magdasal tayo sa Diyos. Para sa isa’t isa, para sa ating mga frontliners, para sa bayan.

Sa panahon kung kailan nakakawala ng pag-asa dulot ng isang iba-ibang pagsubok at pinakamalking hamon nga dito ay ang COVID-19, nawa ay mapaalab pa natin ang damdamin para mas maglingkod para sa ating kapwa kabataan at para sa ating bayan.

Bago ako magtapos, binabati ko ang mga organizers sa matagumpay na inisyatibo mula sa mga kabataan, para sa mga kabataan, at para sa bayan.

Iba-ibang benipisyong pangkalusugan ng Kamatis


Mahalaga ang pagkain ng mga gulay at prutas para mapanatili ang ating malusog na pangangatawan. Nagtataglay kasi ang mga ito ng natural na sustansya at bitamina. Isa sa mga sikat na prutas na madalas ay kinikilala bilang isang gulay ay ang kamatis. Madalas kasi itong ihalo sa mga inilulutong gulay.

Ang kamatis ay isang prutas na nagtataglay ng carbohydrates at ilang fiber. Mayam,an din ito sa beta-carotene na nagiging vitamin A kung nakunsumo na ng tao, vitamin C at E, ay ilang B vitamins at vitamin K. Meron din itong calcium at magnesium.


Ayon sa National Health Institutes ng United States Department of Health and Human Services, ang vitamin A ay nagpapalakas ng immune system at ng ating paningin. Ang Vitamin C at E naman ay nagsisilbing mga antioxidant sa katawan na tumutulong maprotektahan ang ating mga cell mula sa pagkasira sanhi ng free radicals. Ang vitamin K naman ay mahalaga sa blood clotting at malusog na buto.

Nagtataglay ng 6% ng Nutrient Reference Values ng potassium para sa mga nakatatanda ang isandaang gramo ng kamatis. Mayroong mga pag-aaral na nagpapakita na ang mataas na dietary potassium na nakukunsumo ng tao ay maaaring makapagpababa ng posibilidad ng pagkakaroon ng stroke at iba pang heart diseases.

May laman ding grupo ng phytochemicals ang kamatis na tinatawag na carotenoids kabilang na ang lycopene, lutein, at beta-carotene. Mahahalaga umano ang mga ito para mapanatili ng malusog na mata. Mayroon din kasing pag-aaral na nagpapakita na ang mga compounds na ito ay nakakatulong para maprotektahan ang mga mata labam sa macular degeneration kaugnay ng pagtanda at maging ng ilang sakit sa mata.
Ngayong may kinakaharap tayong pandemya dulot ng COVID-19 at sa pagdalas ng pag-ulan tuwing hapon, kailangan nating kumain ng mga gulay at prutas para mapanatili ang malakas na resistensya ng katawan laban sa anumang sakit.

Student Leaders to observe good governance at LGU Mangaldan for Nat'l Youth Week


Being an active student leader in elementary and high school, I always wanted to observe how governance works outside the realm of the school during those times. Albeit, in my four years in high school there were only two scenarios when I got to go inside the Sangguniang Bayan Hall and the Municipal Hall- when we solicited for financial assistance and when we were commended upon winning a national contest.

Together with the officers of the Supreme Student Government
of Mangaldan National high School with their
adviser Ma'am Jocelyn  Pascua during the Brigada Eskwela. 

That is why I brought with me this dream as a former student leader and now as a councilor: what if the current student leaders represented by their student government president with his or her adviser, go and visit the municipal hall and the Sangguniang Bayan and observe how their government works for its people. 

The Philippine Constitution clearly provides that the State recognizes the vital role of the youth in nation-building and shall promote and protect their physical, moral, spiritual, intellectual, and social-well-being. Furthermore, the State shall inculcate in the youth patriotism and nationalism, and encourage their involvement in public and civic affairs.  

Together with my co-officers when I was the president of the
SSG in MNHS and our advisers and principal. 


Moreover, Section 30 of Republic Act No. 10742 or the Sangguniang Kabataan Reform Act of 2015 states that every barangay, municipality, city, and province shall conduct an annual activity to be known as the Linggo ng Kabataan on the week where the 12th of August falls to coincide with the International Youth Day. 

After the flag raising ceremony last Monday, knowing that our mayor fully supports activities and programs of the youth sector, I asked Mayor Bona if we could conduct an activity in line with the International Youth Week and Linggo ng Kabataan (Youth Week) in cooperation with the Local Youth Development Coordinator Sir Noel De Guzman, and the mayor immediately approved the activity without any hesitation. 

With the officers of the Supreme Student Government of
Gueguesangen Integrated School with their adviser Ma'am Donna Clata
during the Brigada Eskwela.

This is why last Tuesday during the regular session, I passed Sangguniang Bayan Resolution Number 2017-105 which enjoins Honorable Mayor Bona Fe De Vera Parayno in inviting all Supreme Pupil Government and Supreme Student Government President in all public and private schools and their adviser in the municipality to attend the flag raising ceremony, municipal hall education tour, and the regular session on Monday, August 7. 


Together with SSG Officers of David National High School and their
principal Sir Jeremy Maningding during their Brigada Eskwela
closing program.


We opted to choose the Supreme Student Government as it is as defined by the Department of Education, the umbrella organization in schools- meaning that it is the highest governing student organization in school. However, we are hoping that in succeeding activities we could also invite other school organizations. 

The objective is clear, for the student leaders to have a clear picture on how good governance works at the Local Government Unit of Mangaldan by visiting every department offices, to be acquainted with worker in the government, be informed of their services, to have a courtesy call and interact with the mayor. The last activity will be the observance in the regular session of the Sangguniang Bayan. Students will be able to observe how Parliamentary Procedure is conducted. 
I am so excited for these young student leaders in our town to be exposed in such activity. I am also hoping that they could apply whatever learning that they could get out of the said activity on Monday.  We do not know if one of these young student leaders will be next department heads, councilor, vice mayor, mayor, or even the president of the Republic.

Mangaldan LGU welcomes its new doctor


Cool and brilliant. This is how I would describe Doc Larry, who happened to be our doctor when I was still a news reporter in ABS-CBN News Regional Network Group. It was during this time when I first met him as a doctor and introduced himself as a Mangaldanian, which made me very proud.

Honorable Mayor Bona Fe De Vera-Parayno inducts Dr. Larry Sarito
as the new Municipal Health Officer of LGU Mangaldan on Tuesday.

During the flag raising ceremony of the Local Government Unit of Mangaldan, Doc Larry was officially inducted by Honorable Mayor Bona Fe De Vera-Parayno. Doc Larry will replace the position of one of the best and most compassionate doctors I know Dr. Ophelia Rivera who is now the City Health Officer of Dagupan City.


Doc Larry Sarito faces the members of the Sangguniang Bayan during
 the regular session held yesterday.

During the Sangguniang Bayan session held yesterday, the members of SB got the opportunity to meet and ask some questions to Doc Larry.

Being in the office for the first three days, I asked him on what he thinks is the main concern he would like to address as the new health officer. He answered that he would like to address health care delivery system wherein he plans to go to various barangays health centers and conduct check-ups thereat. He also said that he plans to conduct inventory of medicines to check what are other medicines that could be added into the current medicines that we have in the Rural Health Unit.

As a youth and chairman of the Committee on Youth in the Sanggunian, I asked him on his plan in addressing some health issues concerning the youth sector in the municipality such as the increasing number of teenage pregnancy. Doc Larry said that he plans to address it through education, particularly on informing the youth on the effects of teenage pregnancy and even the bad side of abortion.

When Councilor Atty. Joseph Cera asked Doctor Sarito if the RHU offers some contraceptive pills, the good doctor answered that he have not conducted inventory yet on the supply of medicines available in the RHU.

Doc Larry Sarito poses with the members of the Sangguniang Bayan
 headed by Vice Mayor Atty. Jojo Surdilla and the
SB Secretary Madam Dominica Marayag
 during the regular session held yesterday.


I am definitely sure that the health of our kabaleyans is in good hands, especially that our chief local executive Mayor Bona is also a health professional. She is actually the leader who activated the 24-hour Birthing Clinic in our municipality and has improved the services of the RHU in her first term. Currently, the RHU Building is under renovation for various improvement and to facilitate more clients, more kabaleyans. That is why I am so honored to be working with visionary, competent, and compassionate leaders in our town.

There are more accomplishment in the health sector of our good mayor, and that deserves another blog entry here on this site. I am more than excited to be working with this good doctor, too!

Dad's in a better place now

He stayed the same way from the last time I saw him and from the last time we went to the mall together. He was strong and care-free.

One of the meeting de avanses my dad
attended during his last campaign in
2016. This was one his
remaining days alive,
being with our kabaleyans.

The scenario started inside the mall. My mom and I together with my dad were doing our grocery together. As usual, he goes on his own picking various items while I push the grocery cart together with my mom. When mom asked about his whereabouts, I told her that he was buying various tools for his cars. He was wearing his usual shirt and shorts with rubber shoes.

GOING HOME. The second scene when I was driving my mom going home using a motorcyle while my dad decided to drive the van with our groceries. We were stocked in traffic so we decided to go back to dad and ride the van.

STAYING FOR GOOD. The next scene was inside a house I've never seen before. It was like a rest house near the beach. Dad was there. We were convincing him to go home with us. He refused. He said that he has already made his promise to stay in the said house. I told him that he was unfair. I told him he should also take care of his grandchildren the way he took care of my sister's children. He smiled. 

For the first time this year, I dreamt about daddy. He talked to me in that dream.

I woke up sobbing. I never expected that dad will be in my dream, more than a year after his death. 

If there is a message out of this dream that would be his assurance that he is in a better place now. He remains to be in my heart and will always be.

What's up


I received a private message on my Facebook page from a senior Communications student Kerzly yesterday. Kerzly, who is a resident of Barangay Salaan here in Mangaldan asked information about the groundbreaking ceremony of the Public Market facade which happened last Monday. She said that she needed it for her online journalism class. I referred the OIC-Market Supervisor Mr. Bong Rivera to her. 

Kerzly's message echoes a longing for writing to me. This made me miss my college days when we also get to write our blogs entries which made me create this blog. I took elective classes focused on online media under Dr. Data Canlas wherein we created the UP Cyber Nomads


As I browse this blog, I noticed that the last entry was posted two years ago. I was planning to create another site but I do not want my previous entries or memories here be deleted and wasted. So, with diligence I pray that I could be able to maintain this blog wherein I could share my stories and journey as a young legislator fuelled by passion and advocacies. 

This photo was taken during the 
Committee Meeting of the Provincial 
Board with some LGU Mangaldan officials 
earlier this year.
