Issue No. 1 – TRAVELS ABROAD which cost EVSU around 18 million.
November 2008 – Dr. Catalino Beltran, Mrs. Doris Espina, et al. spent 4 million to Malaysia.
November 2008 – Dr. Catalino Beltran, Mrs. Doris Espina, et al. spent another 4 million to Singapore.
January 2009 – Dr. Beltran, Dr. Dominador Aguirre, some members of the Board of Regents, including their wives spent 6 million to USA.
April – May 2010 – Dr. Belrtan, et al spent around 4 million to Malaysia, Singapore, & Taiwan.
There is money in going abroad but no funds available for faculty members and non – teaching employees attending a local or national siminar. They could have used this amount (18 million) to build class rooms. Lack of classrooms is the perennial problem of the university.
Issue No. 2 – Two (2) units of ROBOTICS (High Tech?) worth 43 million.
EVSU through Dr. Beltran purchase 1 unit of Robotics worth 21 million. Not contented? They purchased another unit of Robotics worth 22 million. A total of 43 million!
Nobody requisitioned this! For more than a year now these 2 units remain for display purposes only for nobody uses it even the students. What a waste of money? Where did you get this fund from the Engineering laboratory fee of Php. 500.00 per students per semester? Is this payable through an installment basis of 5 years?
Issue No. 3 – Metal Detector at the main gate (Over Priced) worth more than 100,000 pesos.
This is equipment is not a priority. This equipment is needed at the airport not in the campus. This is a waste of money! Why not used the money to purchase books?
Issue No. 4 – Renovation of the Executive House which is worth more than 5 million already. Still the project is half finished.
This is a renovation project and yet the cost is quite alarming as if they are constructing a new building. The cost as of this writing is more than 5 million pesos already. Why Executive House was given priority and not school building? We lack classrooms! You ask the faculty and the students.
Issue No. 5 – Donation of 7 units’ junk trucks from the Department of Agriculture for instruction purposes.
Where are they now? At the junk shop? Did you sell it at the junk shop? Where are the proceeds? How much? The Administrative Officer of the Regional Office No. 08 of the Department of Agriculture is the husband of Mrs. Doris Espina. Is there connivance and collusion in this transaction?
Issue No. 6 – Deduction of Php 100.00 from teaching & non – teaching staff is illegal.
Last December teaching and non – teaching employees were deducted an amount of Php 100.00 from their bonuses for landscaping purposes. No receipt was issued. There was no consultation about the deduction. Yet the administration can afford to deduct from the employees this amount of Php 100.00. The deduction is illegal. Where is the money now? Where is the project?
Issue No. 7 – Laboratory fee of Php 500.00 and Engineering laboratory fee of Php 500.00 collected every semester from the Engineering students.
Without proper consultation from the student, the administration was able to collect an amount of Php 500.00. A total of Php 1,000.00 laboratory fees being collected from the Engineering student per semester. What is the difference between the laboratory fee and the Engineering laboratory fee? This is a double charge for Engineering students. Is the Engineering laboratory fee collected is being used to pay the two (2) units of Robotics?
Issue No. 8 – Student Development Fund Fee of Php 500.00.
Aside from the laboratory fee of Php 500.00, and engineering laboratory fee of Php 500.00, all students are required to pay amount of Php 500.00 as students development Fund (SDF). This was first implemented in the Intermediate and Secondary students 6 years ago. Since there was no complaint from the parents, they experimented it in the College of education and College of Engineering three (3) years ago. Again, there was no complaint, so they implemented this across colleges for two (2) years now. The administration used their discretionary power in implementing this SDF without consulting the students. This is contrary to R.A. 8292.
Issue No. 9 – Multiple positions at EVSU
Dr. Catalino B. Belrtan aside from his position as University President of the main campus is also a Campus Director (OIC), at EVSU Tanauan campus for 4 years now. The distance is 18 kms. from the main campus. How can you manage/supervise your people? You are always out of the main campus for travel either in Manila or abroad. You also have teaching load at the Graduate School! Physically it is impossible right? But how do you manage it? This is very unique case study for students taking up Master in Management or Doctor Management. If we have distance learning perhaps we also have distance management.
Another very important person is Dr. Felixberto Avestrus, the Dean of the College of Business & Entrepreneurship (COBE) of the Main Campus and at the same time the Campus Director of EVSU, Burauen more or less 40 kilometers away from Tacloban City where the Main Campus is located. You have been in these two positions for three (3) years now. How do you manage your people? You have teaching load in the main campus and teaching load at the Burauen campus. Your students both at the Graduate School and in your college at the main campus are complaining that you seldom met them. Is this what we call quality education?
Another case is Dr. Dominador Aguirre. He is currently the Dean of the Graduate School and at the same time the Vice President for Academic Affairs.
We have a lot of this multiple positions; you ask the organizational chart of the University and you will find it for yourself.
Issue No. 10 – Monthly Allowance of the Members of the Board of Regents (BOR) retroactive – 13 years.
Aside from their honorarium of Five Thousand (Php 5,000.00) was it increased to Eight Thousand (Php 8,000.00) per board meeting? BOR will receive a monthly allowance retroactive 13 years. This is double compensation! Two members will receive more than 300,000.00 pesos. Who approves it? The BOR themselves? Is this not self – serving? Ang Kapal naman ng mukha ninyo! Huwag ng dagdagan ang mali! Tama na Sobra na!
These are the 10 deadly sins committed by Dr. Catalino B. Beltran and his cohorts!
Parents and taxpayers wake up! Visit our school and see for yourself. “Kung walang corrupt, walang mahirap”.
CONCERNED NON – TEACHING EMPLOYEES,
FACULTY, STUDENTS AND ALUMNI!

VG Bagulaya: SP institutionalizing system in the legislative house as legacy
TACLOBAN CITY – Members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan are currently institutionalizing a system in the province’s legislative house which would be one of their landmark legacies when their terms end in 2012, said Vice Governor Mimiette Bagulaya.
Vice Governor Bagulaya was referring to the Legislative Tracking System (LTS)- a system of computerized process of archiving and safe- keeping of all ordinances which could also be easily drawn and accessed from the system when needed.
According to Bagulaya, this week, the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) together with the members of the provincial legislative body, had conducted an initial presentation and orientation regarding the system as the first step, and on January 18 they will convene again for the next presentation of the next level and so on until the whole system has been introduced.
With today’s very advanced technology of computer systems, it would only take a keyword or two of the ordinance being searched -typed on search, and then the searched ordinance would come out from the database. This is a very fast way of locating any ordinance from the data base compared to the manual wherein “we have to go over bulky piles of pages,” Bagulaya said.
Unopposed in 2010
While other members of the provincial legislative body will be trying their luck in the coming May polls, Vice Governor Bagulaya is thankful that she is running unopposed (just like Gov. Jericho Petilla), saying this may be God’s reward for her dedication to work wherein she almost lost her life when she met a vehicular accident years back from an out-of-town session.
Bagulaya started leading the Leyte Provincial Board in 2004, who, through thick and thin, pushed for the legislative agenda of the province. For her last term she will continue what she has started to include a continued human resource management training among employees, team building for the betterment of service to the people, she said.

Comelec-8 now ready for voter’s education and info campaign
TACLOBAN CITY- The Commission on Elections in the region is now ready to conduct a voters’ education campaign as the May 10 general elections is drawing near.
Lawyer Jose Nick Mendros, acting regional director of the Comelec, said that their information campaign will kick off in Biliran starting this Monday.
From there, the information caravan will be held in the remaining provinces in the region, Mendros said during the weekly media forum “Express It At The Park” held at the Leyte Park Hotel.
Mendros underscored that the main purpose of the voters’ education that the Comelec will be undertaking is the “value of the vote” one cast and not really on the automation process.
“The purpose of the voters’ education is to inculcate on the value of the votes and not on the automation,” he said.
The forthcoming May 10 election will see the country staging its first ever fully automated elections.
And during the information caravan to be conducted by the commission, how the counting machine, dubbed as precinct count optical scan (PCOS) machine, works will be demonstrated, the Comelec-8 director said.
Teachers who will be serving as members of the board of election inspectors will also be undergoing training, Mendros said.
Over 15,000 teachers are projected to serve as BEI during the May 10 elections.
It was learned from him that their office has already conducted an initial information drive before the members of the diocese of Borongan led by Monsignor Crispin Varquez last Jan.13.
For the region, there will be 5,323 PCOS machines that will be distributed to all polling precincts during the May 10 elections with each of the six provinces to be given a spare counting machine.
“And the number of ballot will be one is to one (voter). There will be no extra ballot,” Mendros said.
This early, Mendros assured the public that electoral fraud is far from happening considering that there will be less human intervention under the automated election system.
The Comelec regional director also said that to ensure that there will be a fair conduct of the elections, elections officers who have a relative up to fourth degree either by affinity or consanguinity will be reassigned to other areas.
An elections officer who also served for four years in the same locality will also be transferred to other area of assignment, Mendros said.
He, however, said that only “very few” will be affected by this impending movement of elections officers in the region. The region has about 143 elections officers.

City gov’t allocates P8M for 2 road repairs
TACLOBAN CITY- The city government here has set aside P8 million for two road repair projects, one in V&G and one in San Jose District, set to be undertaken this coming March.
This was revealed by Executive Assistant Eduardo Manadong.
The city official disclosed that P4 million was earmarked for the repair of the road within the V&G Subdivision, while another P 4 million was set aside for the rehabilitation of the coastal road in Brgy. 89 (San Jose).
Manadong said that the city government decided to allocate a big amount for the two projects because of the extent of damage and disrepair of the two important city roads.
“The road within V&G is in bad condition because of many potholes, while the road in San Jose needs to be repaired because of the damage wrought on it by recent typhoons,” he pointed out.
According to him, the rehabilitation work on the V&G road would involve road reblocking and repair of damaged road sections.
“The aim is to repair the damage which has worsened through the years,” he stressed.
On the other hand, he disclosed that the rehab of the San Jose road would mainly involve the repair of typhoon-damaged portions.
“The purpose is to make the road safe for vehicle traffic,” he said.
According to Manadong, the two proposed road rehab projects, which are priorities of City Mayor Alfred Romualdez, will be implemented soon.
He said that they have calendared the two projects for bidding in the first week of February.
“Our target is to start implementing them in the first week of March,” he disclosed.
Meanwhile, Manadong revealed that the second phase implementation of the Women’s Shelter, an undertaking strongly pushed by City Councilor Cristina Gonzalez-Romualdez, is set to begin next month.
“The phase 1 implementation was already finished, and we are now on the second or completion phase,” he said.
According to him, the second phase, which has a budget allocation of P5 million, would involve finishing works, painting, and landscaping of the area around the building.
A priority of the city government, the Women’s Shelter is meant as a temporary shelter of abused and battered women from this city.
Based on the Project Plan, the to-be-completed Women’s Shelter would be a two-storey structure that would be big enough to accommodate 10 occupants. (CIO- JOSE RODRIGUEZ T. SEÑASE)
