Watershed weekDAVAO City -- Citing the im-portance of watersheds to the lives of the people in Mindanao, Archbishops Orlando Que-vedo of Cotabato and Antonino Ledesma of Cagayan de Oro have called for a proclamation of a Mindanao-wide water-shed awareness week which shall culminate in time for the annual observance of World Environment Day every fifth day of June. Quevedo told reporters here during the recently held Mind-anao Economy and Environment Summit that among the culprits of the massive degradation of the watersheds in Mindanao is the people’s lack of knowledge and action on the issue.

Renante Flores Bangoy, the owner of a small banana plantation in Panabo City, decided three years ago to stop selling to multinational fruit corporations and stake his future on Chinese appetites. Through a local exporter, he started shipping all his fruit to China. Today, his estate on the tropical island of Mindanao is scattered with heaps of rotting bananas. For seven weeks now — ever since an aging U.S.-supplied Philip-pine warship squared off with Chinese vessels near a

Davao-Manado route revivedBy CARMELITO Q. FRANCISCO

DAVAO City -- Wings Air, a unit of Indonesia’s Lion Air, will resume next month its weekly Davao-Manado service four years after suspending the route. The airline company replaces Cebu-based Mid-Sea Express which stopped f lying the route last Apri l, a month af ter the launching. Mid-Sea Express had used a 19-seater Jetstream 32 aircraft. Indonesian Consul General Eko Hartono, who was at the city’s airport for a chartered f light of Wings Air on Thursday, said he hopes this latest venture would be sustained. “This is a big leap forward for both countries,” said Mr. Hartono. In order for Wings Air to

Mr. Har-tono said the service would strengthen the links between the two countries, which are both members of the Brunei-Indonesia-Malaysia-Philippines East ASEAN Growth Area. Flights between the two cities take about an hour and a half. The one-way air fare, based on previous services, had been less than $200. In previous years, Manado traders f lying from this city were reported to have brought with them cosmetics as well as liquor in bulk.

Govt agencies sign up for MindaNOW ProgramDAVAO City -- In a move to firm up support to environment advocacies in Mindanao, sev-eral national line agencies forged recently a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for the implementation of a flagship program of the Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA)

MinDA Chairperson Sec-retary Luwalhati R. Antonino sees the MOU as significant in coordination work that cuts across geo-political boundaries. “This will ensure a con-tinuing coordination across sectors and across river ba-sin units. We will have to organize our coordination f low in a way that can pro-vide focus on each unique requirement of every basin while ensuring convergence across watershed units,” she

The MOU formally de-clared the commitment of agencies to collaborate in the planning, implementing, monitoring, and evaluation of the MindaNOW: Nurtur-ing Our Waters Program. The MindaNOW Program is a concrete response of

MinDA to calls for ensur-ing sustainable economic development and ecological integrity of Mindanao. It also seeks to fulfill the vi-sion of sustainable develop-ment under the Mindanao 2020 Peace and Development Framework Plan.

said. The MindaNOW Program aims to enhance the policy environment for harmonized policies, plans, programs, and structures; facilitate the integration of plans and programs; and harmonize approaches and processes to rationalize resources, pro-grams, projects, and mecha-nisms for the development and management of river basins and watersheds in Mindanao. Meanwhile, Mr. Lory Tan,

Chief Executive Officer and Director of World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in the Philip-pines lauded the firming of Mindanao collaboration. “For the longest time, too many people have looked at environmental concerns in a “stand-alone” manner. This thinking is outdated. Current thinking looks at the physical environment, and the ecological services that come from it, in a cross cutting manner,” he said. “The opportunity is to

establish climate smart, eco-nomic convergence at meso-scale. If natural ecosystems are used as development an-chors, this strategy will prob-ably involve multi-regional zones defined by economic consonance,” he added. The Minda nao-w ide mechanism will be coor-dinated by MinDA and the Department of Environ-ment and Natural Resourc-es (DENR), being the lead agency responsible for the

CebuPac loses bid to snatch PAL entitlements to MECEBU Pacific has lost

its bid to snatch Ph i l ippi ne A i r-

lines’ f light entitlements to the Middle East. “We denied the request because these entitlements were awarded to PAL,” said Carmelo Arcilla, Civil Aeronautics Board execu-tive said. Cebu Pacif ic earl ier petitioned CAB to recall seven of PAL’s 14 f light ent it lements to United Arab Emirates as well as some entitlements to Saudi Arabia, arguing that the f lag carrier had stopped its direct f lights to those areas. Maria Elben Moro, CAB

legal head, said the board decided otherwise because PAL was st i l l using its entit lements through a code-sharing arrangement with other carriers. “It’s not as if PAL is not actually using the entitle-ments. They are, albeit via a code share arrangement which involves a contract between two private enti-ties,” she said. PAL f lies to Dubai and Abu Dhabi 14 times a week, to Bahrain eight times a week, and to Doha seven t imes a week. The air-line however halted direct f lights to UAE in 1998, and its Riyadh f lights in March last year.

Cebu Pacif ic earl ier sa id it plans to mount long-haul f lights, initially to the Middle East, by the third quarter of next year. The Gokongwei-owned low-cost carr ier wants to tap destinations with heavy concentrations of overseas Filipinos. Besides the Middle East , Cebu Pacific is eyeing Australia, parts of Europe and the US. The airline had asked CAB to allow f lights to Oman from Manila and Clark. Ceb Pacific will lease up to eight Airbus A330-300 aircraft to serve these new markets.

Landbank loans to priority sectors up 10% in Q1STATE-RUN Land Bank of the Philippines (Landbank) said loans to its priority sec-tors grew by nearly a tenth in the first quarter as it con-tinued to reach out to more clients in the countryside, its top official said. In a statement yesterday, the bank said loans to the agriculture sector rose by 9.89% to P176.7 billion in the first quarter from P160.8 billion in the same period last year. The bank’s loans to prior-ity sectors account for 73%

of its total lending portfolio during the first three months of the year, which totaled P242.2 billion. “Landbank continues to reach out to more key players [that] will help spur coun-tryside development. This signifies our commitment to improve the economic condi-tions of our countrymen in the rural areas,” Landbank President and Chief Execu-tive Officer Gilda E. Pico was quoted as saying in the statement. Landbank’s priority sec-

tors are classified into three: • “mandated sector,” which include farmers, fish-erfolk and their cooperatives; • “support for agriculture and fisheries,” which include agribusiness, aqua-business and agri-aqua related projects of local government units (LGUs) and government-owned and-controlled cor-porations (GOCCs); and • “support for national government priority pro-grams,” which covers micro, small and medium enterpris-es (MSME), transportation, housing, education, health care, renewable energy, tourism and environment-related projects. Around P61.12 billion went to loans for agri-aqua-related projects of LGUs and GOCCs. Loans for agri-aqua-relat-ed projects of small farmers and fisherfolk totaled P26.32 billion and loans to MSMEs amounted to P25.19 billion. Loans to farmers and fisherfolk without the agri-aqua related projects rose by 17.74% to P7.3 billion in the first quarter.

Philippine Veterans Bank, a medium-sized private com-mercial bank owned by World War II veterans and their heirs, recently inaugurated its new VeteranTeller ATM located within the premises of the Butuan City Hall.

Luz Bringas, and Butuan City Vice-Mayor Atty. Lawrence Fortun. A second VeteranTeller ATM was also installed in city, located at the Butuan Medical Center.

Security Bank gets award for Corporate GovernanceSECURITY Bank Corporation (PSE:SECB) was recognized as one of the Top-scoring Publicly-Listed Companies (PLCs) by the Institute of Corporate Directors’ (ICD) with the Silver Award during the ICD’s 9th Annual Dinner held recently. The Corporate Governance Scorecard is exercised yearly by the ICD in continuing its advocacy to promote good corporate governance practices beyond compliance. The CG Scorecard is derived from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Principles on Corpo-rate Governance. Questions are developed based from these principles. These questions contextualize best practices according to circulars, rules, regulations, and codes issued by the Philippine regulators, specifically the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Philippine Stock Ex-change (PSE). Corporations were judged in terms of shareholder rights, equitable treatment of share-holders, role of stakeholders, disclosure and transparency, and board responsibilities. “It is our honor to be rec-ognized among the country’s top organizations committed to the principles of responsible

governance as we continue to uphold the best practices of transparency, account-ability, and integrity. We at-tribute this achievement to our strong desire to sustain the long-term interest of our stakeholders,” said Alberto Villarosa, President and CEO of Security Bank. The 2011 Corporate Gov-ernance Scorecard is a joint project of the ICD and the Center for Internat iona l Private Enterprise (CIPE) in Washington, D.C. Security Bank contin-ues to elicit strong inves-tor confidence as one of the best performing banks in the country, consistently reporting the highest return on equity (ROE) in the banking industry for the past consecutive years. The bank reported strong first quarter performance for 2012, with a 20% increase in its lending business, which went up to PhP99 billion, year-on-year, ref lecting its focus on driving growth through core businesses. The bank also registered a healthy increase of 12% in total operating in-come of P2.3 billion from the same period in 2011, and a net income of P1.1 billion resulting to an ROE of 14% for the first three months of the year.

TRAVERSING THETRAVERSING THETOURISM HI-WAYTOURISM HI-WAYA marketing mix of Women and Travel

Unmet need for family planning persists

THINK a minute… Mr. Fiorello LeGuar-dia was t he mayor of New York City during the difficult years of the Depression and World War II. The people of New York loved and re-spected him. Mayor LaGuardia was a big-hearted, colorful character. He sometimes rode on the fire trucks in the big city, and took the chi ldren from the orphanage to a profes-siona l baseba l l game. When the newspapers went on strike, he would read the Sunday comics on the radio to the kids.

One very cold night in January, 1935, Mayor LaGuardia went to the night court in the poorest area of New York City. He sent the judge home early that evening and LaGuardia himself took over as judge. T hat n ig ht a n old woman was brought to him. She was charged with the crime of steal-ing a loaf of bread. The woman told LaGuardia that her 2 grandchildren were starving and she had no money to pay for the bread, so she stole it. But the shopkeeper whose bread was stolen would

not drop the charge. He said: “Your Honor, she must be punished to teach the other people here a lesson. Otherwise they’ll think stealing is OK.” M ay or L a G u a rd i a turned to the old woman and said, “I know you did it for your grandchildren, but you cannot break the law and steal. Your punishment is $10.” As Mayor LaGuardia was telling the woman her penalty he reached into his pocket and said to her, “I’m paying your fine, because I know you can’t pay it. You’re now free to go.”

Yo u c a n i m a g i n e how thankful that poor lady was to receive such mercy, even though she still got her fair and just punishment. Think a minute…

SIX months from now when year 2012 will complete its full calendar throttle, more executives will be disap-pointed by the things they were not able to do than by the things they have done. The things that we do in our life in one year are like a regular ship schedule that one must throw off the bow-line and sail away from safe harbor. Travel is one option a person or a family has to do either for a vacation or just gathering siblings together for the parent’s anniversary or a wedding of a friend or a relative. Most travels are women initiated. A woman makes effective decisions for travel planning, organizing meetings and event. Women are the best segment in the marketing process considered as target market. Women travelers and event planners inf luence

trends as they love to frequent hotels, Spa’s, restaurants and shops with their discre-tionary expense behaviors. Women’s income in the Asia Pacific region of 13.5% per capita percents has increased since 2010 compared to men who stood at 12.1%. There are more females in the world with growing income except in the Latin American na-tions. Women’s status in many countries is altering with the historical roles of women, changing as their buying power grows with their per-ceived roles expand beyond caregiver and housewives. More women are taking control in the European banking sector. In Germany, Argentina and Australia women are elected or chosen as top leaders. In the Philip-pines, the pharmaceuticals, BPO’s, advertising, politics and government are starting

to feel the women power. It will not be far that an-other woman will rise to the Judiciary or even to the Presidency. Female genders are more concerned about value and experience. They are more felt in government and recognized in the various industries. Marketing to women deci-sion makers maximized the function of sales. It is a de-mographic rich with impera-tives whose inf luence and spending power continues to strengthen even in times of tumultuous economy. Many hotels and resorts in the Philippines are maximiz-ing their marketing efforts to female travelers by offering packages at their various properties. A Girlfriends Getaway package is available in Panglao, Bohol. In Badian Island south of Cebu, Badian Island Resorts and Spa sells their Spa Packages in Japan

and Korea. It may be time for Siargao Island to catch up with “Surfers Paradise” packages. In marketing to women, let us not use imaginary vocabulary that makes a woman’s life sound hur-ried or crazy. Maybe in Cagayan de Oro, let’s have the “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” rafting in the river. Or have you heard of women in travel. The airline industry should be a good sponsor by offering more discounts to women?

RATE of unmet need for family planning remains high in the Philippines according to the results of the 2011 Family Health Survey conducted by the National Statistics Office. NSO Administrator Carmelita N. Ericta re-vealed that unmet need for family planning (FP) among married women in the Philippines remains high at 19.3 percent, 10.5 percent for birth spac-ing and 8.8 percent for limiting births. In the 2006 Family Planning Survey, unmet need for FP was 15.7 percent, 8.4 percent for spacing and 7.3 percent for limiting. Similarly, Northern Mindanao region’s total unmet need for family planning was also high at 17.8 percent, 9.6 percent for bir th spacing and 8.2 percent for limiting births compared to the results of the 2006 Family Planning Survey with a total unmet need of 14.2 percent, 7.8 percent for birth spacing and 6.4 per-cent for limiting. Among regions, currently mar-

ried women in ARMM have the highest unmet need for family planning (35.8 percent), specifi-cally for birth spacing (28.2 percent). Women with “unmet need for family planning” are women of reproduc-tive age who prefer to avoid or postpone child-bearing, but are not using any method of contracep-tion. When this concept was f i rs t developed , addressing unmet need has become the basis for many family planning and population programs around the world. Most women today choose not to use con-traception because they are concerned about the health risks and side ef-fects of various methods, or they find contracep-tion too inconvenient to use. This suggests that, although programs have been successful in edu-cating women about their family planning options, a number of both per-ceived and real risks as-sociated with some forms

of contraception continue to prevent using family planning method. Moreover, Adminis-trator Ericta also cited that the total unmet need for FP in the country is substantially greater among women consid-ered poor (25.8 percent) compared to non-poor women (16.6 percent). In particular, 13.1 percent of poor women as com-pared to 9.4 percent of non-poor women have unmet need for spacing, and 12.6 percent of poor

It’s A Man’s World(2nd of Two Parts)

HAVING discussed last week, the importance of the liver, as well as an introduction to what hap-pens when it gets diseased, this week, let us learn a few important facts and data on the Big C that can affect the liver. Cancer of the liver can either be primary, meaning it origi-nates from the liver cells, or, metastatic ( the cancer comes from other organs like the colon, lungs, breast to name a few ). I am limiting the discussion only to that which is con-sidered as primarily that originating from the liver. There are different types: Hepatocellular, Cholangio-carcinoma, Angiosarcoma or Hepatoblastoma, with hepatocellular carcinoma ( HCC ) as the most com-monly encountered type. HCC worldwide is num-ber 8th among the Big C’s, and ranks 3rd in the Philip-pines. It is more common in men, and increases in incidence as one ages. Risk is significantly increased with chronic infections involving Hepatitis B and C viruses, alcohol consump-tion and intake of food and milk products that are proven to be contaminated with af latoxins. I had a patient years back, a 35 year old female, who was such a health buff, that when she was diagnosed with HCC, the only relevant data that I gathered from her was her love for peanuts! Our country which has the rainy and dry seasons only, with humidity that is quite unlike other non tropical countries, stands to have that risk of certain fungal species, known as

Aspergillus thriving in storage places for certain food products and even milk. I am not saying that we should not eat peanuts or corn or take in milk and other dairy products. What is of importance here is the observance and practice of proper storage. It is also worth men-tioning again ( sound-ing redundant as this was touched on last week ), that cirrhosis has high correla-tion in the development of the Big C. Chronic hepatitis infections as well as alcoholism ( we are not talking of social drinking here, where on occasions one takes in a glass or bottle or two of beer, or any alcoholic drinks ), but heavy, prolonged drink-ing, as these can cause scarring of the liver tissue which eventually leads to cirrhosis. Signs and symptoms may be very similar to that of cirrhosis: jaun-

dice, weight loss, loss of appetite, abdominal pain, weakness and easy fatiga-bility, white chalky stools. If you or any of your loved one has any of the above, it would be most wise to seek consultation. The reason why HCC has a poor prognosis is, because, it gets to be diagnosed late, with the illness already far advanced in terms of staging. Once consulta-t ion is done, work up may include blood tests, ultrasound and CT Scan. A biopsy is a MUST, which can either be done through the guidance of a CT scan or Ultrasound. Treatment? There are quite a number of options depending on one’s prefer-ence as well as the extent of the cancer: surgical re-moval of the affected lobe, chemotherapy, radiation, and the newer ones may include transplant, freezing of the cancer cells or the introduction of electric

current targeting the area where the cancer cells are. There are instances though when treatment may only be palliative in nature, that is, to relieve the patient of the symptoms to create a more comfortable situation for him. We each have been given and empowered to choose a lifestyle that can either make or break us. What we do with our bodies will haunt us and it doesn’t end with US but will likewise affect our families.... this is one Big C that is highly preventable, and which we can truly do something about....

Moreno underscores good governance to better economic performance

By JORIE C. VALCORZA

MORENO

CITING the country’s recent economic gains, Misamis Oriental Governor Oscar S. Moreno urged government workers to adhere to the principles of good gover-nance and build on what on our forefathers have started. In his speech during the Independence Day rites, Moreno said the Philippine economic performance has continued to impress many economist worldwide as it continues to hit impres-sive gross domestic product growth rates. He further noted that by the second half of this year, our country will get another upgrade or recogni-tion from the international community. “These gains will mean higher credibility rating for the country, lighter debt burden, more jobs and op-portunities for the Filipino people,” he said. With this, Moreno point-ed out the need to maximize the province strategic ad-vantage through attrac-tive and investor friendly governance. “We need not only invite new industry players but also work on retaining the old ones. We are part of a bigger competitive world and we need everybody’s (especially the local officials) cooperation for a more in-vestor attractive province,” he added. “Let us continue building what our great forefathers have started, and let the seed

of inspiration that they have planted sprout from today and to the future genera-

tions to come, that it may bring good name to Misamis Oriental,” Moreno stated.

In March 2010, then PNP chief Jesus Verzosa and direc-tor for logistics Luizo Ticman awarded the 15-year con-tract to Nanjing Industrial Tools and Equipment Co., represented by its president, Romeo Macapinlac. In Resolut ion 2459, Cagayan de Oro City Rep. Rufus Rodriguez said the transaction violated the law on government procurement since it was done without benefit of public bidding. “Such a huge project should have been undertaken

through public bidding,” he said. Rodriguez said he could not understand why the PNP under Verzosa and under new PNP chief Director General Nicanor Bartolome allowed the payment of the P150 firearm license fee directly to the contractor and not to Landbank, where the PNP deposits its collections. He added that the PNP is committing another illegal-ity by allowing such direct payment. Rodriguez also said that

the PNP could earn a lot of money for the treasury if it is the one producing the firearm license card instead of contracting a private com-pany to do it.

He said there are millions of gun licensees, security guards and holders of permits to carry their firearm outside residence (PTCFOR) who pay for license and permit to carry cards. He noted that in the past, the fee for the card was part of gun license fees, which a license holder paid to Land-bank cashiers at the ground f loor of the PNP Firearms and Explosives Division in Camp Crame, Quezon City. Like Rodriguez, Inte-rior and Local Government Secretary Jesse Robredo has also expressed doubts on the legality of the PNP-Nanjing deal. Robredo has reportedly ordered Bartolome to explain why the contract should not be scuttled. The transaction has also been questioned in the Sen-ate by Sen. Panfilo Lacson, who was PNP chief during the Estrada administration. Rodriguez also suggested that the PNP should consider mailing gun licenses instead

of firearms holders going to Camp Crame or PNP regional offices to renew their licenses. “Once the licensees re-ceive their license cards, all they have to do is go to the nearest Landbank branch and pay the fees,” he said. He said this system avoids so much inconvenience on the part of millions of fire-arms licensees.

Lapses Bartolome admitted that there were lapses in the P1-billion license card deal for over a 15-year period. He said he is expecting today a copy of the final re-port of the technical working group (TWG) on the alleged questionable deal with Nan-jing, which will be submitted to Robredo on June 15. “There might have been lapses in the administrative procedures. But we have found some possible imme-diate remedy on this. What is important is that we can complete the result of the TWG,” Bartolome said. Records showed that as per DILG legal office’s computation, Nanjing has been printing an average of 21,818 cards per month for the PNP’s Firearms and Explosives Division (FED) and 20,245 cards per month for the PNP’s Supervisory Office for Security Agencies. This means that over a period of 15 years, at a cost of P150 for each card, the contract is worth a stagger-ing P1.1357 billion. Bartolome welcomed the investigation to be conducted by the House of Representa-

tives on the license card deal. “As far as the P1-billion license fee is concerned, we welcome this development so that we can properly put to a close this issue,” the PNP chief said, adding he learned that Rep. Rodriguez is initi-ating an investigation to be conducted by the committee on public order and safety. Earlier, Robredo issued a March 30 deadline to inves-tigate the questionable deal. Bartolome said the PNP was able to comply to the deadline where he mentioned three options. However, he could not re-call the options but promised to submit their final report to the DILG chief on June 15. According to Bartolome, after the submission of the report last March 30, Ro-bredo met him, Civil Secu-rity Group (CSG) director Chief Superintendent Gil Meneses, Supervisory Office for Security and Investiga-tion Agency (SOSIA) head Chief Superintendent To-mas Rentoy and FED chief Senior Superintendent Raul Petrasanta last April 11. Although there were lapses, the PNP chief said the deal with Nanjing might not be canceled.

Helicopter mess Meanwhile, Bartolome said the 12 active police personnel who were linked to the helicopter procure-ment mess might be removed from the police service as ordered by the Office of the Ombudsman. Bartolome said even a temporary restraining order (TRO) cannot stop the Om-budsman’s order to dismiss the 12 policemen, including two police generals. “According to the Om-budsman resolution, a TRO for this nature cannot stay (the dismissal),” he said. The policemen were in-volved in the procurement of three helicopters previ-ously owned by former first gentleman Mike Arroyo, which were passed off as brand new but turned out to be previously owned and were already five years old. The PNP chief said the PNP Legal Service has re-ceived a copy of the Ombuds-man’s ruling, which has been forwarded to the office of the Chief Directorial Staff.

islets, lies more than 500 miles from the Chinese mainland and 140 miles off the northern coast of the Philippines, well within a 200-nautical-mile “exclusive economic zone” provided for by the U.N. Conven-tion on the Law of the Sea. But China — which claims most of the South China Sea, including portions also claimed by the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Taiwan — insists that the shoal has been part of its territory since at least the 13th century and points to old maps that mark it as Chinese. For a while, it looked as if the quarrel — which began in April when a Philippine warship confronted Chinese fishermen near the shoal and stirred a surge of nationalist fury in both countries — could tip into armed conflict between Asia’s most potent military power and one of its puniest. China last year spent $129 bil lion on its armed forces, 58 times as much as the Philippines, according to data compiled by the Stockholm Inter-national Peace Research Institute. The f lagship of Manila’s navy, the boat that intercepted the Chinese fishermen, is a 45-year-old hand-me-down from the U.S. Coast Guard. Manila does have one potent asset: a 1951 mutual defense treaty with Wash-ington that the Philippines believes puts the world ’s most powerful navy on its side. The United States has a policy of not taking a posi-tion on territorial disputes in the South China Sea and has been ambiguous about what it would do in the event of a conf lict. President Benigno Aquino III visited the State Department and the White House on Friday to press for clarity on U.S. intentions. Trade as ‘foreign policy tool’

Although rich in f ish and long used as a shelter by Chinese and Philippine f ishermen, Scarborough Shoal has no major economic or strategic value. But it has acquired great significance for both countries as a test case for issues of sovereignty that will help determine who gets to exploit potentially large reserves of natural gas and oil in other contested areas of the South China Sea. China and the Philip-pines have stepped back from the brink, curbing their angry rhetoric and halting a buildup of ships near the shoal, which the Chinese call Huangyan Island and the Filipinos know as Panatag Shoal. But bananas are the Philippines’s second-biggest agricultural export, and for growers more than 700 miles from the disputed area, the damage is done. “We are collateral dam-age,” said Stephen Antig, executive director of the Pilipino Banana Growers and Exporters Association, a group based in Mindanao’s Davao City, the center of the Philippine banana business. He estimates that as many as 200,000 people in the re-gion will lose their livelihood if China continues to curb imports. Antig had been due to visit China soon to talk to buyers but is going instead to Iran and several Arab countries in search of substitute markets. Bangoy, the banana grow-er in Panabo, has no doubt that his China woes are con-nected to the Scarborough Shoal fracas. The Philip-pines, he noted, “has been selling bananas to China for more than 10 years without problems, so why did this suddenly happen now?”
