to be fair, lorenz, yes, the pay is certainly low in our country, if we convert to dollars.  but we don't use dollars here to purchase things.  a little comparison: a 700-dollar/month apartment in the u.s. (and i understand in some urban areas this is just a one-room affair or, worse, just a garage converted into a room) would mean at the very least a 29,000+/month mansion here.  the kind of lifestyle and standard of living one wants is certainly in the picture. 

some who have remained here have managed well while some of those who have left (and to their credit, have sacrificed a lot, foremost of which are scrimping and loneliness) were disappointed or have sadly failed.  to each his own coping with life's ups and downs then, wherever one chooses to be. 

Yes, isles, that is true, one can have satisfaction working in the Philippines. There are opportunities within the country as well as outside. Thanks!

I don't know how you do it - di gyod ko pwede mag doktor - basin ma wrong diagnose and wrong tambal akong mahatag sa pasyente. Unya, padayon pa gyod kag further your expertise!!! 

Natural ra man na, Father, sa intern years sa pagkadoktor, it is the time to experience all things. One has to keep an open mind ; and remind oneself that "you cannot save everyone of your patients." ka tinuod baya na. The first time we loose our patient is the most painful and most heart-wrenching experience, but one has to understand that as a doctor, one cannot always save everyone.

When I lost my first patient, I really took it hard. We tried our best to resuscitate her, as in all 4 of us that were working on her were doing our best to revive her heart (patient had died due to STEMI (st-elevation myocardial infarction) secondary to a massive occlusion of the left descending coronary artery). When I left the room, I could not believe that she died; and within minutes, I was consumed by such a massive and overwhelming burden and pain. I had to explain to her husband and her kids that their mother "did not make it ". It was burden to see the kids cry and clench their dad. They kept on saying, "mommy! we want to see our mommy! please , doctor, can't you make her wake up again?" The youngest child (8 years old) was saying this to me.

I had to get out of there because i was rolling in tears. It was so very hard to see the kids cry. I had to talk to my attending about this.

Anyways, my attending told me, "Lorenzo, this is a natural pain you experience. Recognize it, don't deny it. You cannot save everyone, we are not God."

He was right.

Getting ready na pod ko ron'. 4:16 na diri sa Chicago. Arang ka tugnawa diri oy, ning uwanuwan baya diri the whole weekend. Gotta brew some coffee before heading on out.

I just saw this. Thanks, Isles! I hope you, too, had a wonderful Joyous Easter Sunday. God Bless!

Dearest Isles,

Thank you for your concern. I was so busy attending medical duties these past couple of days, trust me, I have missed all of you guys as well. Thanks for your interest in reading my papers, as we speak, I am currently reading possible research articles to include in my next paper. Am currently doing research on Child Abuse and the psychosocial maldevelopment of abused children and the psychometric indices of possible behavioral maldevelopment.

I appreciate your willingness to read my paper, I will definitely send you a rough draft copy this weekend. I know that you are very good in grammatical correction as per your background in editing! Please know that I am very thankful for any help you give.

Please know that I miss our intellectual discussions here in the board. And as soon as I have more time later on, I'll post more. Wishing that you have a terrific week coming up.


Always,

UPDATE: The Philippines withdrew the BRP 15 from the Scarborough Shoal, but China strengthened its position by sending a 3rd ship to their position.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) â€" China deployed a third ship Thursday in an area of the disputed South China Sea where a tense standoff with Philippine vessels has dragged on, sparking alarm in Manila.

Chinese and Filipino diplomats have been scrambling to resolve the dangerous impasse at the Scarborough Shoal off the northwestern Philippines that erupted Tuesday. A Philippine warship attempted to arrest several Chinese fishermen accused of illegal entry and poaching, but was prevented by the arrival of two Chinese surveillance ships.

One of the Chinese ships blocked the entrance to a lagoon at the shoal, where at least eight Chinese fishing vessels were anchored. The Chinese ships also ordered the Philippine warship to leave Scarborough, claiming Chinese sovereignty over the rich fishing ground.

But the warship has stayed put, arguing it is Philippine territory.

Philippine navy chief Vice Admiral Alexander Pama said the BRP Gregorio del Pilar warship was withdrawn from Scarborough Thursday for refueling and was replaced by a Philippine coast guard ship. The move was not a retreat or concession of any kind to China, he said.

"We're not retreating from our own territory," Pama said.

Foreign Secretary Albert del Rosario said he will ask Chinese ambassador Ma Keqing to explain the arrival of a third Chinese surveillance ship at Scarborough, which he said lies well within his country's territorial waters and off the northwestern Philippine province of Zambales. Despite the new concern, del Rosario said he would continue talks with Ma to resolve the impasse, possibly this week.

"We're watching developments and at the same time we're pursuing the diplomatic track," Del Rosario said. "We're moving forward but it's still a work in progress."

Del Rosario proposed an arrangement to end the impasse during talks with Ma, who was expected to relay the Chinese government's reply soon, according to two Philippine officials monitoring the negotiations.

Del Rosario declined to provide details of the proposal, but said it was a "win-win" solution designed to rapidly end the standoff. The stranded Chinese fishermen were not expected to be able to stay for long at the uninhabited shoal because they may run out of food and other provisions.

Del Rosario said he wanted the problem resolved before he leaves Sunday for a weeklong U.S. trip.

Aside from Scarborough, the South China Sea is home to a myriad of competing territorial claims, most notably the Spratly Islands south of the shoal, an island chain claimed by China, the Philippines, Vietnam, Brunei, Malaysia and Taiwan. The barren Spratly islands, reefs and coral outcrops are believed to be in rich in oil and gas and the overlapping claims have long been feared as Asia's next flashpoint for armed conflict.

The Chinese Embassy said the fishing boats had taken shelter from a storm in the lagoon and accused Philippine troops of harassment. But Philippine authorities claimed the fishermen illegally entered their territory then collected giant clams, live sharks and other endangered marine species in violation of local laws.

The situation at the shoal remained relatively calm, although the Philippine military spotted a suspected Chinese surveillance aircraft which briefly flew over the shoal Wednesday, Pama said.

The United States said it was concerned by the increased tensions in the South China Sea. "We urge all parties to exercise full restraint and seek a diplomatic resolution," a State Department spokesperson said on customary condition of anonymity.

MANILA â€" The Philippines deployed a second vessel to tiny islands in the South China Sea on Thursday in a bid to protect its sovereignty in an increasingly tense territorial standoff with China.

Authorities said a coast guard boat joined the Philippines' biggest warship at Scarborough Shoal, where two Chinese surveillance vessels were protecting a group of Chinese fishermen from being arrested.

"It has arrived in the area. It is there to support our navy and to show our flag," foreign affairs department spokesman Raul Hernandez told reporters, referring to the 56-metre-long (184-foot) search and rescue coast guard vessel.

"It is mandated to protect our seas."

However Hernandez also emphasised the Philippines was intent on ending the standoff peacefully, and quickly.

"We are confident the two sides will find a diplomatic solution as they are committed to finding one," he said.

"We want this to be resolved immediately. Our people are there, the Chinese fishermen are there. It is hot and they could run out of food so we want this to be resolved as soon as possible."

The dispute began on Sunday when Philippine authorities found eight Chinese fishing boats at the shoal, a group of tiny islands and reefs 124 nautical miles west of the country's main island of Luzon.

The Philippines accused the fishermen of being there illegally, asserting the area was Philippine territory because it was within the country's 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone, as recognised by international law.

However China claims all of the South China Sea as its own, even waters up to the coasts of other countries, and Chinese authorities insisted the fishermen were allowed to be at the shoal.

Competing claims to the South China Sea have long been regarded as one of Asia's potential flashpoints for military conflict.

Aside from the Philippines and China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Malaysia and Brunei also have competing claims to the waters.

More than 70 Vietnamese sailors were killed in 1988 when China and Vietnam battled for control of the Spratlys, an archipelago south of Scarborough Shoal.

The sea holds huge economic and political significance, as it is believed to sit atop vast oil and gas resources, is home to vast fishing grounds and hosts shipping lanes that carry a third of the globe's maritime trade.

In the latest flare-up in tensions, the Philippines deployed its navy flagship vessel to Scarborough Shoal immediately after the Chinese fishermen were discovered there.

But the two Chinese surveillance vessels appeared on the scene on Tuesday and blocked the Philippine warship from arresting the fishermen, who had reportedly hauled in corals, live sharks and some endangered species.

"For us, this is illegal fishing, illegal poaching and that is why our navy is there to protect our sovereignty and assert our rights," Hernandez said.

The Chinese embassy in Manila released a statement on Wednesday insisting the waters belonged to China and ordering the Philippine warship to leave immediately.

In Beijing, foreign ministry spokesman Liu Weimin accused the Philippines of "harassing" the Chinese fishermen and said a protest had been lodged.

"We urge the Philippine side... not to make new troubles and create conditions for the friendly relations of the two countries," Liu said.

The Philippines and Vietnam complained last year of increasingly aggressive acts by China in staking its claim to the South China Sea.

The Philippines accused Chinese vessels of firing warning shots at Filipino fishermen, as well as harassing an oil exploration vessel and placing markers on islets within Philippine territory.

However this week's standoff is the highest-profile in recent years.


http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5iqDXs30I9is_n3-Swg1sAZhw2zSA?docId=CNG.72095befc510e5593f85b40d9dd460a3.551

The Philippines says it has withdrawn its largest warship from a continuing stand-off with Chinese boats in the disputed South China Sea.

Earlier on Thursday a Philippine coastguard vessel arrived in the area, known as the Scarborough Shoal.

The Philippines also says China has sent a third ship to the scene.

The Philippine foreign minister said negotiations with China would continue. Both claim the shoal off the Philippines' north-west coast.

The Philippines said its warship found eight Chinese fishing vessels at the shoal when it was patrolling the area on Sunday.

It did not say why the warship had been pulled back. "That is an operational undertaking I can't discuss with you," Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario was quoted by AFP news agency as saying.

"We are pursuing the diplomatic track in terms of coming to a resolution on the issue," Mr Del Rosario said.
Differing views

In a statement, the Philippines said that its navy boarded the Chinese fishing vessels on Tuesday and found a large amount of illegally-caught fish and coral.

Two Chinese surveillance ships then apparently arrived in the area, placing themselves between the warship and the fishing vessels, preventing the navy from making arrests.

The Philippines summoned Chinese ambassador Ma Keqing on Wednesday to lodge a protest over the incident. However, China maintained it had sovereign rights over the area and asked that the Philippine warship leave the waters.

China's state-run newspaper China Daily claimed in an editorial that the Chinese fishermen were "harassed" by the Philippine ship.

"China should take more measures to safeguard its maritime territory," the newspaper stated.

"The latest moves by China's two neighbours are beyond tolerance," it added, also referring to Vietnam. "They are blatant challenges to China's territorial integrity."

However, the Global Times newspaper added that China "has the patience to work out solutions with the countries concerned through negotiation".

The stand-off comes as the Philippines prepares for joint naval exercises with the United States from the 16 to 27 April near the disputed area.

Six countries claim competing sovereignty over areas in the South China Sea, which is believed to contain huge deposits of oil and gas.

Along with China and the Philippines, they are Brunei, Malaysia, Vietnam and Taiwan.

China's claim includes almost the entire South China Sea, well into what the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea recognises as the 200-mile-from-shore Exclusive Economic Zones of other claimants.

That has led to occasional flare-ups and to competition to occupy islands, reefs and sandbars.

wise voters.

That's what I would do.

hahaha! ning katawa ko when i found out that tagbilaran's city mayor is a 'lim'. he doesn't even look chinese!
he looks more natibo pilipino, doesn't even have chinese features.

An Engineer in the Philippines makes 14-20 thousand pesos a month? That is equivalent to $350 - $500 a month. In the United States, an Engineer can make around $80,000 - $150,000 a year , which is equivalent to 3.2 Million to 6 Million pesos a year.

No wonder why there are a lot of Pinoy Civil Engineers, Mechanical Engineers, here in the USA.

No wonder why a lot of nurses leave the Philippines. They normally make 9-10 thousand pesos a month, which is equivalent to $225- $300 a month. In the United States, they make that amount in 1 day.

In Valencia there are 2 Lim Families. Both of them are at odds with each other.

The family of former-Mayor Dr. Plinio Lim are not in the same side with former-Mayor (now Vice Governor) Dr. Concepcion Lim.

sadly, yes, and too bad the oligarchs enrich themselves while in office.  personally, i never understood why people can't simply accept the money, if they must, and still vote for their choice, which could be the opposing side.

Some people do that.

As I was told by another fellow Valencianhon.

Philippine political dynasties:

Aquino, Binay, Cayetano, Cojuangco, Dominguez, Escudero, Estrada (aka Ejercito), Lacson, Lopez- Romualdez, Marcos, Macapagal, Rama, Revilla, Roxas, Rufino, Ty, Villarreal

Bohol version, offhand (note: meaning with more than one family member in politics, past or current.  for those in the know, please add):

Borja, Cajes, Chatto, Imboy, Jala, Lim, Relampagos, Tirol, Torralba

I know Tito Eddie (Tagbilaran City Councilor Edward Borja), he is a good guy. He used to work with my Mommy Wella (DILG Bohol Provincial Director) 

I know that Tirol are also good people, they are also one of the founding families that started UB (University of Bohol). Was not a Tirol the Vice-Governor of Bohol some time ago?

Quote from: islander on April 11, 2012, 12:35:23 AM
6. The vast majority of the population is either totally frozen out of the system or has little opportunity to influence politics or policy

7. The Philippines lags (in economic growth compared to Thailand) and any effective challenge to the existing order may require a broader, more nationwide middle class, and the emergence of a somewhat disenfranchised nouveau riche

8. Anti-democratic forces can hijack mass movements for exclusive ends

9. [The Catholic church] failed to make any official statement about the Arroyo government's corruption

10. Arroyo was perceived to have attempted to potentially subvert the Philippine constitution and perpetuate her elite rule

At first (back in 2007, 2008), I thought that GMA was a good president, but the more I read about her, I realized that she was , indeed, very corrupt. It is almost ironic that she was jettisoned to power by the people's power that replaced Estrada (who was claimed to be corrupt), but then , in the end, she herself became corrupt.

Also, extrajudicial killings were so rampant under her administration. The Ampatuan Clan were her old time political allies in Mindanao.

Addendum:

I believe that the DILG should be reported on these nefarious political practice of "revenge" against political opponents. And I believe that DILG Provincial Office in Bohol should deal with thes unlawful practices by certain mayors. It is not right, it is unlawful and an example of abuse of power.

To add to this great thread, I would like to give my opinion:


It also disgusts me how politicians pay for votes and actively give out money for every single voter. When i was in Valencia in July 2010, I overheard my cousins, my ninongs and my Titos talk about how much the candidates paid for votes and compared their amounts. I immediately asked them, "So, ang mga politicians diri , mo hatag diay ni sila ug kwarta sa mga constituents sa atong lungsod?"

Ning respond ahong usang Tito, "Oo, Doy. Ing ana man jud ang system diri sa Pilipinas. Dili lang sa Valencia, pero, sa tibuok Bohol og sa Pilipinas". I was very disheartened to hear this and was very disgusted.

Philippines is not a democracy, but a oligarchy. Politicians are not elected based on their merit, but on how much money they have to bribe the poor people. And it saddened me because when I was driving around Valencia, around the poor areas and in the bukid region, I can see why some of our people would accept the bribes. 200 , 300, 500, 700 pesos that these politicians give to the people can buy food for the people. It disgusts me how the "political dynasties"  maintain  their power base. Either through monetary use or through goons.

I hope that in the future, this corrupt system will end. If it even is possible..

I am thinking about my good friend Albert, who I recently was able to catch up on the phone yesterday. He is having some issues involving his father who recently had a thyroidectomy done because they found papillar carcinoma on his thyroid. I was trying to encourage him and pray with him on the phone. I thought about him last night before going to bed and also all day today. It is hard because he is my very good friend and also a fellow Doctor. He is currently studying for his upcoming Medical Board Exams and it is hard for him to deal with this going on with his papa.

I know that prayer is a powerful tool. So I am asking all of you here in Tubag Bohol who are prayer warriors , please pray for the complete and speedy recovery of Albert's father as well as for spiritual encouragement on Albert. Palihug , mga higala. He needs our prayers.


With Love and Thanks,
Lorenzo

Right now , I am at work. Recently, I finished a doctoral class on Organizational Leadership on Health Administration. I was very happy to get my grade result. I really need an editor or a reader who can be willing to read my doctoral papers. It is really imperative I find one soon. If there any of you here in TB who are willing to read my papers (i have to normally complete 2 papers a week; ranging from 5-10 pages in length each paper), I would be appreciative.

Dig way down in your heart

Somebody to tell you

I'm trying to tell you
It will if you don't even try
You can fly if you'd only cut

Around the world, Christians commemorated Good Friday with solemn observances, both large and small. In Jerusalem, a procession wound through the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, traditionally believed to be the burial site of Jesus. Volunteers dressed as Roman centurions drove nails through the palms of Catholic devotees in the Philippines, in a reenactment of the crucifixion of Christ. Hundreds of processions took place in Spain during Easter Week, including one in Valencia where worshippers flocked to the icon of the Santisimo Cristo de Salvador Friday to pray for those who died in the sea.

Thanks for sharing the pictures, Father R. I wish I could be there to attend Easter Vigil with the rest of your congregation. God Bless!

Christ Agonized A most terrible , humiliating death for us. Experienced such pain and suffering for us. The Lord God Made Flesh Suffered Humiliation and died for our sins. It was a truly agonizing death. Christ Have Mercy.

The Crucifixion of Jesus



So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. 17 Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). 18 There they crucified him, and with him two othersâ€"one on each side and Jesus in the middle.

   19 Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened to the cross. It read: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. 20 Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin and Greek. 21 The chief priests of the Jews protested to Pilate, “Do not write ‘The King of the Jews,’ but that this man claimed to be king of the Jews.”

   22 Pilate answered, “What I have written, I have written.”

   23 When the soldiers crucified Jesus, they took his clothes, dividing them into four shares, one for each of them, with the undergarment remaining. This garment was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.

   24 “Let’s not tear it,” they said to one another. “Let’s decide by lot who will get it.”

   This happened that the scripture might be fulfilled that said,

   â€œThey divided my clothes among them
   and cast lots for my garment.”

   So this is what the soldiers did.

   25 Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, “Woman, here is your son,” 27 and to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.

28 Later, knowing that everything had now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.” 29 A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus’ lips. 30 When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

   31 Now it was the day of Preparation, and the next day was to be a special Sabbath. Because the Jewish leaders did not want the bodies left on the crosses during the Sabbath, they asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken down. 32 The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and then those of the other. 33 But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34 Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water. 35 The man who saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, and he testifies so that you also may believe. 36 These things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken,” 37 and, as another scripture says, “They will look on the one they have pierced.”

38 Later, Joseph of Arimathea asked Pilate for the body of Jesus. Now Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly because he feared the Jewish leaders. With Pilate’s permission, he came and took the body away. 39 He was accompanied by Nicodemus, the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.[e] 40 Taking Jesus’ body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen. This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs. 41 At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. 42 Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.
