DYRD Radio Pulso Program Back with Vengeance

The top-rated commentary/ public affairs program "Pulso" will resume broadcast tomorrow after a weeklong suspension due to its advertisers' withdrawal from the program.

Program host, Kagawad Roberto "Batchoy" Alba said, after meeting commitments to the radio station, the program will be back to its normal broadcast tomorrow, 9 to l0 a.m. right after the no. 1 radio program "Inyong Alagad."

Alba vowed to radio listeners to continue his crusade against bad governance especially on graft and corruption at the local government units.

"No amount of pressure can stop me from this crusade," he stressed.

It maybe recalled that "Pulso" suffered financial set backs after majority of its sponsors terminated their contracts. Alba alleged that his program sponsors were pressured by the office of Tagbilaran Mayor Dan Lim to pull out their support.

The mayor denied having pressured Pulso's advertisers. In fact, he offered to pay and support the radio program if only to be proven "innocent" of the accusations.

Alba thanked the "new breed of advertisers" who are behind his program, most of whom would wish to remain anonymous.

"It is very heart warming to know that the silent majority of the people are behind Pulso's crusade against graft and corruption," Alba concluded as he vowed to be back on air with a renewed commitment to serve the public.

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...
