Inabanga Bohol Hands Out Food Stuff

The cycle was completed last week with the distribution of foodstuffs at the Dagohoy Park through barangay captains and elementary schoolteachers.

  Mayor Jose Jono Jumamoy said the money to buy the commodities came from the P250,000 that came with the plaque that President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo awarded the town in November last year in Manila for bagging the National Nutrition Award as well as the counterpart that the local government unit (LGU) put up.

  Municipal Health Officer Mae Lilibeth Melicor, all Sangguniang Bayan (SB) members and the LGU staff were on hand to assist in the distribution of rice, sugar, milk, cacao-chocolate as well as vitamins and seeds especially to malnourished children in primary schools.

  Jumamoy said it was his pride that through the collective efforts of all Inabangnons, "we have gone this far."

  "We have now shared the fruits of our efforts especially with our undernourished children. These may just be 'small things' but these are of great help to them," he said. - Sunday Post

Antonio Ong Guat, the founder of Bohol Quality Store

From Sunday Post   I pay my sincerest condolences to Antonio Ong Guat, the founder of Bohol Quality Store . My family especially my late Mom owed a lot of gratitude to him. Little is known of the fact that my Mom as a school teacher, was making school teaching charts with her crude rubber printing set. I used to accompany her to Tagbilaran to buy her supplies at Bohol Quality Store, and bought her supplies direct from Ong Guat. Suki niya si Ong Guat to the point that he would attend to her when she goes to the store. In fact, nagpapautang pa siya ni Mom, which she paid when she sold her teaching materials to the new teachers. I suggest that the provincial and city governments should honor Ong Guat with a posthumous award in recognition of his efforts to be the founder of a business empire in Bohol, which has presently employed thousands of Boholanos presently. I think everybody agrees that his store sparked business to its fullest heights today. Fred Ong and his wife Babs Gonzaga we

Tindahan Natin operators here requested the National Food Authority (NFA) to add 20 more sacks of rice to their weekly supply, to make it 50 sacks for retail.       Tindahan Natin is a program of the government through the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).       Under the program, store owners can avail of loan worth P20,000 of NFA rice payable in one year.       Being a first-class municipality, Talibon is given a slot of only three Tindahan Natin operators.       Among them are are Eleuteria PaƱares of Bagacay, Rosalinda Cabanes of Suba and Cipriana Padin of Cataban.       According to the Tindahan Nation operators, the present supply of 30 bags weekly is not enough to meet the requirement of the barangayfolks in this town.       The operators channeled their request through DSWD Regional Director Teodulo Romo Jr. to arrange with the NFA-Bohol Provincial Manager Clyde Omictin to add 20 more bags to their weekly supply.       Through the Tindahan Natin, constitue
