Bangkay ng 19-anyos, natagpuan sa bakanteng lote sa Masbate City

MASBATE CITY — ISANG bangkay ng lalaki ang natagpuan sa Barangay Maingaran, Masbate City, alas-6:40 ng umaga, kanina.

Kinilala ang biktima na si Dodong, 19 anyos, residente ng Barangay Espinosa.

Ayon sa pulisya, nagtamo ito ng mga sugat na indikasyong marahas ang sinapit bago nasawi.

Malapit sa bangkay ay may karatolang may nakasulat na, “Huwag tularan ng kabataan, magnanakaw.”

Batay sa paunang imbestigasyon, posibleng sa ibang lugar naganap ang krimen at itinapon lamang ang labi sa naturang lote.

Huling nalaman ng pamilya na nakipista ang biktima sa Barangay Bantigue bago natagpuan sa punerarya.

Patuloy ang imbestigasyon ng Masbate City Police upang matukoy ang suspek at motibo sa krimen.

Matagbac Chairman, Tinitiyak ang Konkretong Resulta ng Pondo

MILAGROS, Masbate — Sa kabila ng limitadong ₱4.8 milyon na taunang National Tax Allocation (NTA), nakapagsagawa ang Barangay Matagbac ng iba’t ibang proyekto gamit ang 20‑percent development fund sa pamumuno ni Chairman Melchor Mondiego.

Kabilang sa mga proyekto ang pagbili ng utility vehicle na nagagamit hindi lamang ng barangay kundi maging mga karatig‑barangay tuwing may emergency.

May paparating pa ring isa pang utility vehicle na inaasahang makadadagdag sa serbisyong pangkomunidad.

Naglaan din ang barangay ng ₱2,000 financial support para sa mga residente tuwing may emergency o pangpa‑ospital, bagamat limitado ang tulong dahil sa maliit na budget.

Pinahusay ang barangay hall at na‑upgrade ang day care center na dati ay gawa lamang sa light materials.

Ayon kay Mondiego, tiniyak niyang ang bawat inilabas na pondo ay may kapalit na konkretong resulta — mga proyektong maayos, kapaki‑pakinabang, at sulit sa ginastos ng barangay.

May mga pagkakataon pa na siya mismo ang nag‑abono mula sa sariling bulsa upang matiyak na maipatupad ang mga programang makikinabang ang komunidad.

Isa sa mga halimbawa nito ang pagtupad sa pangakong magtalaga ng Barangay Information Officers (BIO) sa bawat sitio, na bagamat walang nakalaang pondo mula sa dating pamunuan ay kanyang tinustusan mula sa sariling honorarium.

Kinilala rin ang Barangay Matagbac bilang pang‑lima sa performance ranking ng bayan ng Milagros pagdating sa pagpapatupad ng mga proyekto.
