Filinvest Land Inc. (FLI) has turned over 80 condominium units, valued at P200 million, of One Oasis Building 1 to investors, a top company official said.

Tristan Las Marias, FLI first vice president and project head of Visayas and Mindanao, said 80 owner-investors and 240 of their family members have occupied the units, according to their latest headcount.

One Oasis building 1 has a total of 130 units valued at P325 million.

Las Marias said 50 more units are being prepared for delivery and over a hundred applications are still being processed.

FLI is also the developer of the integrated community Citta di Mare, which is being built at the South Road Properties.

FLI said the first phase of the P1.9-billion One Oasis medium-rise condominium project has recorded brisk reservations and sales in the last six months.

FLI said the property “is designed for people on the go, who need homes within a few minutes’ drive to shopping malls, schools, and hospitals, and who seek living convenience at the heart of the city while enjoying a refreshing ambience.”

One Oasis sits on a 3.7-hectare property in Mabolo. FLI plans to build 10 mid-rise buildings in the area.

FLI also said onsite construction of the five-storey Building 2, which had topped off last May, is progressing ahead of schedule for next month’s turnover.

The firm is working to complete Building 3, which is targeted for delivery between December 2012 and January 2013.

Building 4, on the other hand, was launched last month. The tower will offer 22-square meter (sqm) studio units; 34-sqm one-bedroom units; and 40-sqm two-bedroom units.

Among the project’s amenities are multipurpose club house, adult and children’s pools, basket all court, landscaped gardens, children’s play area and jogging paths.

To maximize the use of advance communication technology, the city government here launched the E-VIGAN or the Electronic Vigan Inter Governmental Agencies Network.

Mayor Eva Marie S. Medina said E-VIGAN is an interconnectivity network project that widely and directly interconnects the city hall and all barangays and public schools to various government offices.

The project will provide quality and efficient services to Vigan residents as it will serve as a tool for more productive, efficient and time saving government operations and delivery of services.

The lady mayor said that through the unification of the interconnectivity services, the city government will save on the higher cost of separate services.

“Gone are the days when so much time and resources are spent in delivering notices and advisories to the barangays as well as monitoring operations and services of the city government outside of the city hall,” she said.

Through E-Vigan, the student and teachers can conduct research in their personal computers and have internet access service to major educational research that will definitely help them in their pursuit of quality education.

Protect Filipino Journalist

On May 15th, 2012 by Filipino | No Comments | Posted in The News

Philippine Presidential Spokesman Edwin Lacierda reiterated on Wednesday the government’s assurance to protect local and foreign members of the media.

This assurance followed the 2001 report of New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), citing the Philippines as the second deadliest country for journalists, next to Iraq.

“What we’ve always said that we frown on extralegal killings,” Lacierda said in a news briefing.

“We do not sleep on our protection on foreign journalists especially after the Maguindanao massacre. This is something that we are fully conscious of,” he said, referring to the gruesome killings of 57 people, mostly journalists in the country’s southern province of Maguindanao in November 2009.

Lacierda also explained that once there was a reported killing of a journalist, the administration immediately conducted investigations and try to determine the motive.

Once the perpetrators were identified, necessary charges would be immediately filed, he said. – pna

The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) regional office has recently provided rehabilitation assistance to residents in Hagonoy town, one of the hardest hit areas in Central Luzon by the onslaught of the recent typhoons.

The assistance was through the DOLE’s Integrated Livelihood Programs.

DOLE regional director Leopoldo B. De Jesus said the DOLE Bulacan Field Office, in partnership with the municipal government of Hagonoy, has released some P1.2 million livelihood assistance which benefited 321 calamity victims from various barangays of the town.

Of the total assistance, P900,000 was used to pay for the salaries of the 300 disadvantaged workers for a 10-day short term employment under the DOLE’s “Tulong Panghanapbuhay sa Ating Disadvantaged Workers Program” (TUPAD) wherein the said workers were tasked to clean up the streets and dredge the silted canals of the town.

The workers were also provided employment enhancement training for future employment by the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) of Hagonoy.

The remaining P300,000 from the DOLE’s “Negosyo sa Kariton” Project (Negot Kart) was used for the vending carts of 21 ambulant vendors for their small businesses.

The municipal government of Hagonoy, through Mayor Angel L. Cruz Jr., on the other hand, has provided its 20 percent counterpart assistance amounting to P72,000 and P129,000 for the DOLE’s Nego Kart Project and TUPAD program, respectively.
