‘Lipulin lahat ng basura’

APAT NA HAYOP PATI mga hayop, tulad ng dalawang aso at ng manok, biktima din ng pagbaha. Nakatali pa ang mga hayop na ito sa Palingon Elementary School sa Calamba, Laguna, pero malamang hindi dahil sa tatakas ang mga ito. Nagsisigurado lang ang kanilang may-ari na walang magtatangkang kumuha sa kanila. EDWIN BACASMAS

AY 400,000 iskwater na humaharang sa mga lagusan sa Laguna de Bay sa dulo ng Metro Manila ang dapat ilipat upang malutas ang krisis sa pagbaha sa Kamaynilaan, sinabi ng Laguna Lake Development Authority (LLDA) kahapon.

Kabilang sila sa may isang milyong naninirahan sa may baybayin ng pinakamalaking lawa sa bansa, na mananatiling lubog sa baha nang hanggang limang buwan kung walang malaking pag-

kilos, ani LLDA chief Edgardo Manda. “I have made a strong recommendation to remove these people from the danger zones and not allow them to go back,” ani Manda hinggil sa 400,000

iskwater na nakatira sa dating latian. Upang maiwasan ang pagbalik ng tao, dapat magtayo ang mga opisyal ng mga harang at magtalaga ng mga bantay sa lugar, aniya. Bunsod ang rekomendasyon ng pagbaha sa malaking bahagi ng silangang Metro Manila na nananatiling lubog 12 araw makaraang ibuhos ng Bagyong “Ondoy” ang

ulan na tinuturing na pinakamarami sa loob ng apat na dekada, at pumatay sa 298 katao. Tumaas nang 10 talampakan ang Laguna de Bay, kaya binaha ang daan-daang barangay sa 16 bayan at dalawang lungsod sa lalawigan ng Laguna at naitaboy ang 700,000 katao, ayon sa isang pangkat-Simbahan.

Stars play real-life heroes to ‘Ondoy’ victims By Bayani San Diego Jr. and Marinel R. Cruz

T

HIS is a reality show, of stardom at its noblest. Kapuso and Kapamilya celebrities have been playing true-life heroes these past two weeks to countless compatriots devastated and displaced by Tropical Storm “Ondoy.”

Actor Dingdong Dantes realized the magnitude of the problem on Sept. 27, a day after the downpours that brought massive floods, during the GMA 7 telethon on the variety show SOP. Right after that show, he mobilized the youth leaders of his Yes Pinoy Foundation, which promotes scholarship programs. “But seeing the images of grief on TV,” he said, “we decided to join the relief operations.” Volunteers showed up at his doorstep and donations started pouring in. Apart from friends and relatives and fellow Kapuso stars Dennis Trillo, Gabby Eigenmann and Antonio Aquitania, members of the 3rd Technical Service Battalion of the Armed Forces of the Philippines joined Dingdong in Mangga-

han, Pasig, on Monday, Sept. 28. The actor is a marine reserve officer. On Oct. 1, Marian Rivera, his screen partner, helped him distribute goods in Cainta. “Marian was very happy to help,” said Dingdong. “She worked tirelessly ... she was an asset to the team.” Dingdong ultimately set up the Tindig Pinoy Laban Kay Ondoy Relief Center. “The team is going back to Taytay and Cainta. We will continue our efforts long after the storms have left our shores,” he said.

Suited and ready ABS-CBN star Angel Locsin turned up at a relief center of the Philippine National Red Cross wearing a swimsuit under a loose-fitting shirt. The actress, a former member of the national swimming team, said

MASTER SHOWMAN THIS MONDAY on I-Witness, Sandra Aguinaldo presents the life of German Moreno through the eyes of his long-time friends and Philippine entertainment legends Dolphy, Gloria Romero, and Pilita Corrales. Join them as they recount the colorful story of Kuya Germs, from his humble beginnings as a theater curtain-puller during the 1940s up to his heydays as star discoverer in the That’s Entertainment. People from all corners of the industry have come to love Kuya Germs because of his generosity and kindness. Sandra also interviews Judy Ann Santos, Isko Moreno and Kuya Germs’ radio co-host Shalala and discovers how Kuya Germs has helped them in their respective careers. IWitness airs on Monday midnight after Saksi.

she was prepared to join rescue missions. “I came ready for deployment,” Angel said. But she was just as willing to help repack relief goods that were being dispatched that day. The next day, the actress visited the

Payatas dumpsite in Quezon City and donated goods to the residents. Angel also reportedly donated P600,000 to Sagip Kapamilya, an ABSCBN group tasked to address humanitarian crises caused by

emergencies.

Energy biscuits For one whole month, the United Nations World Food Program will give “energy biscuits” to 11,700 children under 5 years old, announced KC Concepcion, UN-WFP nation-

al ambassador. The UN also has sent 30 rubber boats and three helicopters for rescue operations and will donate generators to power up damaged hospitals, she added. KC has been very visible, coordinating

food brigades and personally helping distribute the goods in hard-hit communities.

The actor later participated in clean-up activities initiated by the GMA News and Public Affairs staff in Tumana, Marikina. With Reyes and other Kapuso stars, Richard also distributed relief packs in Marikina’s Nangka High School.

Network initiative Since Monday last week, Katrina Halili has been giving away clothes, pails and other necessities in Marikina and Taytay. Halili’s fellow Kapuso and Rosalinda co-stars Carla Abellana and Geoff Eigenmann delivered goods to Red Cross Alabang. Alfred Vargas conducted mass feeding and relief operations in Fairview, Quezon City. Vargas, who got stranded at the INQUIRER office in Makati af-

MARIAN Rivera and Dingdong Dantes ter a Read-Along session with street children at the height of “Ondoy” on Sept. 26, said he has lined up more activities in other affected areas this month. JC de Vera and Bubbles Paraiso volunteered at the Kapuso Foundation’s repacking satellite at the GMA 7 studios. On their own, Starstruck graduates Mark Herras, Rainier Castillo and Yasmien Kurdi

mounted distribution campaigns. Francine Prieto, whose mother is a cancer patient, nevertheless joined the Kapuso drive, along with Chynna Ortaleza, Iza Calzado and Kris Bernal in Rodriguez, Valenzuela, Malabon and Pasig.

Old and young Amalia Fuentes joined other actors from the Sampaguita, LVN and Premiere years in donating clothes and blankets to

flood victims. “The Balik Samahan group is organizing relief operations,” Amalia related. Jake Cuenca led the distribution of relief packages in Biñan, Laguna. Singer Pops Fernandez, BB Gandanghari, Bing Loyzaga and several young artists from Star Magic visited affected residents in Muntinlupa. Shaina Magdayao helped out in Payatas with fellow Kapamilya artists Piolo Pascual, Zanjoe Marudo and Maricar Reyes. Shaina also worked with Kris Aquino and Ruffa Gutierrez at a center in San Mateo, Rizal. Mellisa Ricks spent a day helping out at a Sagip Kapamilya center in Malabon. She was with Matt Evans, Vhong Navarro, EJ Falcon and veteran actress Nova Villa. “Walang maliit na tulong,” said Melissa. Singer Ogie Alcasid was inspired to write a song, as tribute to the resilience and generosity of Filipinos. “It’s titled, Kaya Natin ’To. I al-

ready made the demo,” he said. He envisions it as a We Are the World-type of fundraiser. “I hope to convince other artists to record the song with me, and give all proceeds to the flood victims.”

All-star benefit concert Also in the works, Ogie said, is an all-star benefit concert at the Araneta Coliseum on Nov. 14, similarly dubbed Kaya Natin ’To. “I hope it will become a unity concert, with Kapuso and Kapamilya artists participating.” Ogie’s girlfriend, singer Regine Velasquez, had gone straight to a wholesale supermarket the day after “Ondoy,” to buy groceries for distribution as relief packs. “On her own, she went around different sites in Balara, Quezon City, near her house,” Ogie said. There are many realizations for Filipinos after the storm, he stressed, the most important of which is disaster preparedness. “We can no longer take things for granted.”

ATULOY ang pagdagsa ng tulong matapos manawagan ang Philippine Sportswriters Association para sa mga naging biktima ni ‘‘Ondoy.”

Hindi lamang mga kilalang pangalan sa isports dito kundi maging sa labas ng bansa ang tumugon sa PSA fund drive. Nagbigay ng cash donation sina World Boxing Council president José Suláiman at anak na si Mauricio, WBC’s executive secretary, sa samahan sa pamamagitan ng isang wired donation na pinadala kay Dr. Allan Recto. Si Dr. Recto na nakatira sa Texas ay kaibigan ni Pinoy ring superstar Manny Pacquiao.

Tumulong rin ang mga banyagang koponan na lumahok sa Asian Men’s Senior Volleyball championship. Hindi rin nagdalawangisip ang San Miguel Corporation na agad nagbigay ng donasyon. “The compassion shown by Filipino and foreign sportsmen and athletes toward the victims of Ondoy tugs at the heart,” wika ni PSA president Teddyvic Melendres na siya ring Inquirer sports editor. “We didn’t have to ask; they learned about

the plight of our helpless countrymen and they came forward to help.” Nauna ng tumulong sina sortsman Mikee Romero, Sen. Chiz Escudero, dating Philippine Sports Commission chairman Philip Ella Juico, Quezon City councilor Joseph Juico at BEST Center founder Nic Jorge.

‘Love of Ninoy’ GAYA ng mga nakalipas na taon, masayang idinaos ang PBA pre-season press conference last Wednesday, October 9 sa Diamond Hotel, Manila. This was to usher in the league’s 2009-2010 season under the chairmanship of Burger King’s Lito Alvarez , who had many difficult questions to answer during the open forum with media. Syempre ang pinakamahirap sagutin na tanong e, “Saan ba talaga maglalaro si Japeth Aguilar?” Kasi ayon sa mga report, talagang wala nang pagasang maglalaro pa sa Burger King si Japeth. Talagang sa Smart Gilas na niya piniling sumapi at wala nang pagasang mapagbago pa ang kanyang isip. Love and service for flag and country daw ang dahilan kung bakit

IN HUDDLE Beth Celis [email protected] Smart Gilas ang pinili niya. Of course yung mga katoto ni Peter Aguilar, tatay ni Japeth e natatawa lang. "Love of flag and country? Baka love of Ninoy,” sabi nila. Kung pinili daw ni Japeth ang Smart Gilas over Burger King, iisa lang ang maaaring dahilan. Mas malaki ang package na ino-offer nito. Malamang doble. At any rate, hindi pa rin nawawalan ng pag-asa si Lito. As I write this, malamang tapos na ang breakfast meeting nila ni Ronnie Nathanielsz, ang guardian ni

Japeth. Inaasahang pag-uusapan ng dalawa ang posibilidad na maglaro muna sa Burger King si Japeth, kahit na isang game lang, tapos trade na ito sa Talk’ N Text, in which case magiging property na si Japeth ng Tropang Texters. After this, call na ng Texters kung ano ang gustong gawin sa kanya. Pwedeng ibigay na siya sa Gilas dahil technically, property na siya ng Talk ’N Text. And as you all know, ang owner ng Talk n Text at Smart Gilas ay iisa: si Manny V. Pangilinan na presidente din ng SBP at part owner ng Burger King. As of presstime, hindi pa natin makontak si Lito o si Ronnie. I have a strong feeling though, na nagkasundo na sila.

EAGLES, EAGLETS BACK-2-BACK CHAMPS

Sumabay pa kayo! P INATIBAY ng Ateneo Eagles ang kanilang reputasyon bilang numero unong koponan sa UAAP basketball matapos kamtin ang ‘‘golden double” kahapon sa Araneta Coliseum.

Hindi nasira ang konsentrasyon ni Rabeh Al-Hussaini at matalim ang depensa ng Blue Eagles na nagpatahimik sa UE Red Warriors, 71-58, sa winner-take-all showdown na pinanood ng 19,000 tagamasid. Bago ang tagumpay ng Eagles, inaliw ng Blue Eaglets ang mga miron matapos gapiin ang De La Salle-Zobel, 61-56, sa kanilang sariling do-or-die. Dinuplika ng Eagles ang koponan ng Ateneo na nagwagi ng back-to-back noong 1987 at 1988. Tulad na kanilang mga kuya, ito rin ang

ikalawang sunod taon na nagtapos sa unang puwesto ang Eaglets. “We came out hungry right from the very start, we were on attack mode right from the very start,” sabi ni Ateneo coach Norman Black. “We played defense which is something we didn’t do in Game 2. We came out with a lot more energy.” Bigo ang Warriors na tapusin na ang 24 taon paghihintay para sa titulo. “Maybe we were not ready enough to tackle the game of this magnitude,” ani ng luhaang UE coach Lawrence Chongson.

APRUB APRUB kay basketball godfather Manny V. Pangilinan ng Smart Communications (kaliwa) ang back-to-back ng Ateneo Blue Eagles sa ilalim ni coach Norman Black sa UAAP men’s basketball tournament. Hindi nilubayan ng Ateneo ang UE Red Warriors, 71-58, kahapon sa Araneta Coliseum. Kinuha ng Blue Eagles ang best-of-three title series, 2-1.
