PAGASA weather forecaster Aldczar Aurelio on DZBB:-Sa kanyang tinatakbo ngayon, maaaring mamayang gabi o bukas ay nasa loob na ng PAR ang direksyon

nito, sa silangan ng Northern Luzon.

-Posible pong malusaw ito dahil malakas ang epekto ng Habagat. Ang isang LPA kapag malakas anghangin sa paligid niya, nasisira ang kaulapan. Kasi ang LPA o bagyo ay binubuo ng mga kaulapan atkapag malakas ang hangin sa paligid niya, nawawasak ang kaulapan at gayundin malulusaw ang LPA.

-Sa ngayon po maging alerto tayo kasi may panibagong LPA tayo, kahit hindi pa siya bagyo ay

inaabisuhan natin ang ating mga local govt na maaaring maapektuhan nito.-Ngayon po ang Hanging Habagat ay lusaw na po at patuloy ito na kumikilos pa-hilaga kaya buong Luzon

maaapektuhan. Sa ilang oras, Northern at Central Luzon na lang ang maaapektuhan ng Habagat dahil

hinihila ni bagyong Maring ang habagat. Ngayon po ang bagyong Maring ay nasa China.

bagamat susuriin pa rin nila ito. Inaasahan naman ng pamahalaan ng Porac na maaayos agad ang bitak sa

2. President Aquino joins Filipinos in commemorating the 30th Death Anniversary of former Senator Benigno

Ninoy Aquino, Jr.

President Benigno S. Aquino III joined the Filipino people in commemorating the 30th Death Anniversary of formerSenator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino Jr., saying that each Filipino carries the potential to bring about a lastingtransformation in society.

"As we celebrate his courage and patriotism, may we be reminded that individual choice can change the course of ourhistory, and that each and every Filipino carries the potential to bring about lasting transformation in society," the ChiefExecutive said in his message commemorating his father's death anniversary.

The former senator was assassinated on August 21,1983 at the then Manila International Airport now Ninoy AquinoInternational Airport.

His death paved the way for his wife, Corazon C. Aquino, to continue what he had left behind the fight for therestoration of freedom and democracy.

"On August 21, 1983, my father made the difficult decision to return to his ailing nation. No exile could lull him intocomfort amidst the pleas of his kababayans for a peaceful life; no distance could make him neglect the duties heswore to his motherland. Instead, he headed home, alone, heart burning with fervor, to fight for the democracy hedreamed of reclaiming for his country," the President said.

Thirty years after his death, Ninoy continues to inspire the Filipinos to cope with the challenges of maintaining ourrestored freedom in the countrys democratic system.

"This was the choice that led to his martyrdom, and the turning point of our continuing narrative: In grief, theindomitable Filipino spirit was awakened. This spurred the People Power that brought back our peoples liberty and

our national dignity," the President stressed.

"Let the heroes in each of us thrive in our everyday words and action, in service of the greater good; exercise thefreedom we enjoy today to spark a revolution for positive change and cast our stake in forging our destiny as a nation.Time and again, we have proven that no challenge is too daunting and no task is too great for a united Filipino nation,"he further said.

The President said the recent history attests to the power of Filipinos' solidarity as they seized the chance to steer ournation towards the straight and righteous path and to rebuild the just, equitably progressive society that his fatheraspired for.

"Let us remain steadfast in our journey of renewal and bestow the legacy of an even more mature democracy uponcoming generations," he concluded. PND (js)

napuntahan at naasikaso, the President said.

Ngayon, maganda rin 'yung cooperation nung ating mga kababayan na tumutulong --- iyong nakikiisa sa paglikas ditosa mga danger zones. Dito nga sa Mandaluyong, ni-report, by next month, iyong sa first 80 families, tapos na iyongdayalogo nila, makakalipat by next month. Hindi na 'yung masalimuot ang proseso sa paglilikas sa kanila sa masmaayos na lugar, he added. PND (rck)

President Benigno S. Aquino III said his administration has put on hold the release of funds intended for PriorityDevelopment Assistance Fund (PDAF) until a thorough investigation into the pork barrel scandal ends.

The President said future PDAF releases are still with the Department of Budget and Management because theimplementing agencies which got initial releases have to liquidate the money they received.

Asked until when the DBM will hold the PDAF, the President said the ongoing investigation on the pork barrel oflawmakers has to be completed so that the government could act on the loopholes that reportedly became the source ofcorruption on PDAF releases.

Tapusin muna ang imbestigasyon and check kung mayroong pa ngang mga loopholes na dapat maisara, the ChiefExecutive said in an interview with GMA network's Maki Pulido on Tuesday.

The government must file charges if the investigation yielded any anomaly in PDAF releases, he said.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) intends to expand its investigation into the pork barrel scam following the release of theCommission on Audit (COA) report on alleged misuse of over P6 billion in controversial funds.

The President also expressed dismay over allegations on the misuse of the PDAF.

Ang kuntsabahan ng napakaraming sektor para mangyari ito, ang mga allegations? Beneficiaries, listahan ng barexaminees? Malulungkot ka rin kung yung magandang nagagawa naman sa paggamit ng PDAF natatabunan nitongkababuyan na ito, he said.

So, were trying to come up with that system that does away with all of the loopholes, para siguradong mapunta doon satalagang pangangailangan ng bawat komunidad, he continued.

The President also said hes not in favor of abolishing the PDAF altogether since it helps the government carry outprojects that cant be done by the national government.

He added that his administration is working on a new system that will eliminate the loopholes that result to corruption.

There will be a menu of projects and expenses and the government must limit the release of funds to legitimate non-government organizations (NGOs) that really help the community, he said.

The current process in releasing the PDAF must be simplified, the President said. Building major projects such asschools and electrifying communities should not be a concern since the government has started eliminating the

classroom backlogs and has connected far-flung areas to main power lines, he added.

The justice department has been investigating the anomaly in the release of PDAF of lawmakers allegedly to non-existent or bogus NGOs amounting to billions of pesos. PND (js/as)

Manatili sana ang mga master plumbers na kabalikat ng ating simulain ng isang tunay na nagkakais ang lipunankung saan ang sipag sa trabao ay pantay na ginagantimpalaan at ang mga hakbang natin ay ginagabayan ng walangpasubaling pag-ibig sa bayan, sabi ng Pangulo sa kanyang pahatid-bati sa National Master Plumbers Association ofthe Philippines Inc.

Ang laganap na kaunlaran ang pangunahing pakay natin sa panahong ito ng panibagong sigla ng tiwala ngsambayanan sa ating mga istitusyon. Ang pagsasakatupran ng mabuting pamamahala ay unang hakbang lamang samahaba at matagal nating paglalakbay na gagawin, dugtong pa ng Pangulo.

Habang inilalatag natin ang mga kailangan upang iangat ang kapakanang pambayan, umaasa tayong ang mgapagsisikap na ito ay lilikha ng ibayong mga pagkakataon para sa ating mga kababayan, lalo na ang mga kapus-paladna bahagi ng lipunan, wika ng Pangulo.

Binigyang diin ng Pangulong Aquino na inaasahan niyang ang pagtitipong ito ay magiging daan ng ibayongispirasyon ng mga master plumbers upang ibayong tumulong at magmala-sakit sa Kabisayaan at Mindanao. PND(js/zaf)

Nakahanda ang Malacanang na makipagtulungan sa Hudikatura at Kongreso para matiyak ang fiscal autonomy andtransparency sa budget ng Kataastaasang Hukuman.

hudikatura.

Tungkol sa ibang mga bagay na inungkat ng mga kinatawan ng hukuman, ang DBM sa panig ng Ehekutibo, ayhanda at sisikaping maging bukas sa pagtatrabaho na kaisa sila at ang Kongreso sa ano mang bagay na maykinalaman sa kanilang budget, sabi ni Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Abigail Valte sa pulong-balitaan Biyernes.

Talumpati ng Kagalang-galang Benigno S. Aquino III Pangulo ng Pilipinas Sa Pambansang Kongreso sa WikaInihayag sa Leong Hall, Ateneo de Manila University

Noong ika-19 ng Agosto 2013

Tagapangulong Virgilio S. Almario; Father Jett Villarin; mga kinatawan ng Kalupunan ng Komisyoner ng Komisyon sa

Wikang Filipino; mga kasaping akademiya at mga non-government organizationna hindi pa na-translatena narito;

mga kawani ng ng pamahalaan; mga kagalang-galang na panauhin; mga minamahal ko pong kababayan:

Magandang umaga po muli sa inyong lahat.

Isa sa mga tanong na bumagabag sa dating Pangulong Manuel Quezon noong panahon ng Commonwealth ay ito:

Oras na magbalik sa Estados Unidos ang mga Amerikano, at makamit ng Pilipinas ang kalayaan, at wala na muling

paghuhugutan ng dahilan ang mga Pilipino para lumaban at magkaisa para sa iisang layunin, ano pa ang magbubuklod

sa ating bansa? Ang sagot dito: isang wikang pambansa. Sa halip na magkanya-kanya bilang Tagalog, o Bisaya, o

Cebuano, o Ilocano, o Kapampangan, kikilalanin silakikilalanin tayosa ilalim ng iisang pangalan: Pilipino. At gaano

man karami ang ating isla, pagbubuklurin tayo ng isang tinig, ng isang wika: Filipino.

Mula sa proklamasyon nito bilang wikang pambansa noong 1937, wala pa ho ako noon, [laughter] ewan ko lang si

Father Jett dahil lamang siya sa akin ng kaunti, [laughter] dumaan sa mabagal at masalimuot na yugto ang Filipino

bilang wikang may kakayahang pagkaisahin ang bansa. Hindi bat dati, meron lamang tayong Linggo ng Wika?

Bagaman buong buwan na ng Agosto kung ipagdiwang ating sariling wika ngayon, naniniwala pa rin akong dapat ay

araw-araw na kinikilalat pinapahalagahan ang ating pong sariling salita. Marahil, kung wala pa ang mga gurong tulad ni

Ginang Escasa, na talagang hinasa kami sa silid-aralan sa wastong paggamit ng Filipino, malamang ay kanina pa ako

natitisod sa maraming salita, at hindi na ninyo ako inimbita sa pagtitipong ito. Ang nakakabahala, sa halip na pagmulan

ng kolektibong dangal, nagiging bukal pa ng alitan ang wikang Filipino. Personal ko itong nasaksihan noong bagong

halal pa lamang akong Kongresista.

Syempre ho, pag-nagumpisa ang Kongreso, mag-oorganisa kayo. Habang nag-oorganisa kayo, habang nag-oorganisa

kayo, e di wala pang trabaho ang mga komite dahil binubuo nga.

So isang araw, tumayo ang kinatawan ng Quezon City, o isa sa mga kinatawan ng Lungsod Quezon at nagtalumpati sa

wikang Filipino. Tumayo ang kinatawan ng Davao del Sur noong panahon na iyo at itinanong kung bakit nagsalita ng

Tagalog ang kinatawan ng Quezon City. Sagot po ng kinatawan ng Quezon City, Ayan po ay opisyal nating

lenggwahe. Ang sagot sa kanya, Pakibasa nga yong parte ng Konstitusyon na nagsabi nang Tagalog ay Filipino. At

pagkatapos po non ay nag-Bisaya na ang ating butihing kasamahan galing ng Davao del Sur. Pagkatapos po non, eh

sumagot na rin ho ang presiding officer, Deputy Speaker galing Palawan, sinagot yong dalawang kin atawan sa wikang

Ilokano. Kaya po yong stenographer nagtataas ng kamay at sinabing, Suko na ako, hindi ko na alam kung ano ang

susundan dito! [Laughter]

Alam ho ninyo, dalawang linggo pong debate kung ano Filipino. Ang napala namin, habang ino-organisa ang Kongreso.

At habang silay nagdedebate, sabi ko, Napakabigat naman ng talakayan nating ito! Napakaraming inakyat baba kong

dike para lang magkaroon ng pribilehyong magmkaroon ng debateng tila walang saysay.

Sa unang tingin, nakakatawa nga ho ang kwentong ito. Subalit kung susuriin, ganito mismo ang kasalukuyang

konteksto ng pulitika ng wika sa Pilipinas ngayon. Ang isang bagay na dapat ay nagbubuklod sa atin, nagiging mitsa pa

ng di-pagkakasunduan. Ang wikang dapat ay bumubuo at tumatahi sa libu-libo nating mga kapuluan, ay siya pang

pumupunit sa mga prinsipyong naghuhulma sa ating kasaysayan.

Kaya naman isang malaking hakbang ang pagtitipong ito sa pagpapayabong ng ating wikang pambansa. Nananalig

akong sa pagtutulungan ng mga kalahok na sektor, maitutulay ng Unang Pambansang Kongreso sa Wika ang ilangmga hamon at suliraning pangwika na matagal nang nabalewala sa ating lipunan, at magsimulang maitaas ang antas

ng pakikilahok at diskurso ukol dito. Nagpapasalamat ako sa kasalukuyang pamunuan ng Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino,

sa inisyatibang likumin ang mga kaisipan at opinyon ng mga eksperto sa pagtitipong ito, gayundin sa masigasig na

pagpapatupad ng mandato ng komisyon. Nananalig akong magiging mabunga ang Unang Pambansang Kongreso sa

Wika, at magagamit tungo sa paghubog ng mas progresibong lipunan ang anumang resulta ng inyong talakayan.

Kahit sa munting paraan, kompiyansa ako sa naiaambag ng ating administrasyon sa pagpapayabong at pagtangkilik sa

wikang pambansa. Bilang Pangulo, tungkulin kong ibalik ang tiwala at kompiyansa ng mga Pilipino sa mga institusyong

pampamahalaan. Samakatuwid, tinig nila tayo. Mangyayari lamang ito kung naiintindihan at nakikita nilang hinihimok

natin silang makilahok sa paghubog ng pamahalaang tunay na mula sa kanila, at kumikilos para sa kanila. Kaya naman

bago pa man ako mahalal, napagpasyahan kong gamitin ang Filipino sa aking mga talumpati hindi bilang gimik o

propaganda kundi dahil ito ang tunay na tinig ng ating mga kababayan. [Applause] Humaharap po ako sa kanila

bilang kolektibong boses ng mga Pilipino, kayat obligasyon kong magsalita sa wikang komportable sila, at naiintindihan

nila.

Alam po nyo, naalala ko tuloy: Noong ako poy unang tumatakbo bilang kongresista, may mga lumapit po sa akin at

sabi bilib na bilib raw ho sila sa aking ama. Napakagaling raw hong magsalita. Para raw machine gun. May nagsabi pa

ho yatang masinggan [machine gun]. [Laughter] Tapos, ako naman poy siyempre nagalak, at tinanong ko poy ano ho

ba ang naalala nila sa mga binigkas na sa lita ng aking ama. Sabi nila, Medyo matagal na yon eh pero magaling siyang

magsalita. [Laughter] So, Thank you na rin ho, sabi ko.

Noong ako naman po yong unang na-interview, noong bago nga tayong halal, isang beses, isang kapitan namin sa

Tarlac nagsabi sa akin, Sir, napanood ko kayo sa telebisyon. Kagaling nyong magsalita! Tapos sabi ko, Ano ba yongpinakamagandang nasabi ko? Sir, magaling kayong magsalita talaga pero English yong sinasabi nyo, hindi ko

masyadong naintindihan pero damang-dama ko magaling kayo talaga. [Laughter]

Sa madaling salita, magsasalita ka, baka matuwa sayo, baka ma-impress sayosabi ng mga Amerikanopero wala

naman naintindihan. Wala naman atang pag-uugnayan na nangyari doon, o pagkakaunawaan o pagkakaintindihan.

Kaya mabuti yata ay maintindihan ng nakakarami ng ating sinasabi, o kung hindi, nag-aksaya lang tayo ng hangin.

Hindi ko kailangang magtunog marunong o magmukhang matalino sa pakikipagdiyalogo gamit ang mga banyagang

wika. Ayokong iligaw ang aking kapwa, o pabanguhin ang aking mga nagagawa, sa paggamit ng mabubulaklak na

salita. Trabaho kong iulat sa kanila kung ano ang totoo, sa paraang simple at pinakanauunawaan ng madla. Higit sa

lahat, Filipino ang gamit ko sa tuwing kaharap ang aking mga Boss, dahil alam kong ito ang wikang pinakamalapit sa

kanilang puso.


22/31

Simple lamang ang punto ko: Huwag nating hayaang maikahon tayo sa pagtatagisang-dila. Pagkakaisa ang bukal kung

bakit mayroon tayong pambansang wika, kayat dapat nating timbangin kung paanong magag amit ang husay at talino

ng mga ekspertot dalubhasa sa paghahatid ng positibismot pag -asa sa ating kapwa. Pagkatapos ng debatet

talakayan, matuto tayong maging mahinahon, magkasundot magtagpo sa gitna, at paglabas ng kumperensyang ito, ay

humakbang pasulong tungo sa direksyong makabubuti sa ating pambansang wika. Imbes na mga galos at pilat ang

makuha dahil sa pagtatagisang-tinig, sana ay umusbong ang pagkakaunawaan at pusong makabayan. May tungkulin

tayong palaganapin ang isang kulturang may malalim na pagkakaintindihan sa isat isa, gamit ang isang wikang

pinagbubuklod at pinapatibay ang buong bansa.

Ulitin ko po: Wika, dapat pagbubuuin tayo, hindi tayo dapat paghihiwalayin.

Magandang araw po. Maraming salamat sa inyong lahat.
