EDITORIAL May Future Gifts Come To CNMI

Soon it will be Christmas and quickly after will come New Years Day. We hope that presents are given to the Co~mon.wealth in the future. We hope that new years will bring better things to the people of the Commonwealth.

The gi~ of 24 hour water service with enough pressure in the water line to take a shower is given to the people of the Commonwealth soon. . Oft~n we have heard offamilies going without water in t~e1r homes for days. Their children need to bathe, t.heir ~1shes need to be washed, the whole flow of their lives 1s hampered by the fact that water can not be found in their homes when they need it.

LETTERS To the editor.·voUROpinions The Commonwealth Utility Corporation is facing a

lot ~f problems, no one questions that. It is also ~aking some progress toward projects which should improve the water delivery system in the Common­wealth. We just hope they succeed soon and give us the gift of water in our homes.

Employee Problems At CHC Discussed

The. gift of be~ter roads would be nice also. If you want JUSt to dnve up and down Beach Road from Garapan to Susupe then you are okay, but if you want to go anywhere else on the island of Saipan, then make.sure your car has good shock absorbers and your tires are very hardy.

What a pleas~re it would some day be to drive to Ladde~ Be~ch without going into holes two feet deep. How nice rt would be even for the tourist who have brought a boost to the economy of Saipan to be able ~o see so~e of the beaches on the Pacific side of the 1slandwh1chthey now can not reach unless they have a four wheel drive vehicle.

!he gift of dependable electrical power would cer­tainly be a welc~me~ one also. To know that the only wa.y the power rs going to go off is if YOU turn off the switch w~ul.d be a comforting thought.

Other gifts such as a safe dump, no more pollution of the lagoon, less car accidents due to alcohol abuse, would help to ~ake any season bright.

Perhaps those gifts wrll soon be given to the people of the Commonwealth. Perhaps when the end of 198~ comes some of them will be placed beneath the Christmas of 1989 tree.

Editor Note: Several employ­ees of Commonwealth Health Center wrote me a persona[ re­quest to publish their concerns in a leuer to the editor about prob­le~s at CHC without printing their names because of contribu­tions. I personally verified the origin of the letters and its con­tent with other CHC staffer who was given the chance to read copy of the letter, however the writers said in part: As we stated in the last part; "As we stated in the last part of the letter we are omitting our names because of retributions that would most cer­tainly occur. We know that your policy is All letters MUST have a signature but quite honestly we are afraid. If you don't chose to print this we will most certainly understand but ask for a variance to your policy and grant us this chance to at least voice some­thing that could in the future have an effect on the way and quality of health care of Saipan.

Until then, have a wonderful and enjoyable Christ- Thank youforyourconsidera-mas and a very Happy New Year. tion.

Dear Editor: With so much in the papers

lately regarding Guam Memorial Hospital and some of the prob­lems that they are experiencing we felt it timely to bring to light some of the activities at our very own Commonwealth Health Ce.nter. This is not to specifically p01?t. at the finger at any one mdiv1dual yet to highlight some of the frustrations that we are experiencing, if guilt by associa­tion plays a part then so be it. The community may not have no­ticed, but lately the staff of the

CHC is at a low point in moral. Why is this, well let us point out a few of the issues at CHC.

Why are employees always told that something is going to hap~n, when it is really just lip semce?

How many employees were promised that there annual leave ~ould be corrected as they signed contracts and still no changes?

How many employees were promised water in their homes and still no water?

How many employees have attended meetings or tried to dis­cuss a problem just to sit in that meeting and be yelled at?

Howmanyofushaveseen bad medicine being delivered just to be told don't worry we'll take care of it?

How many of us have seen blatant discrimination, just to be told that's the way it is here?

How many ofus have been told wecan'tdothattodaybecausethe persons in a bad mood?

How many of us have seen departments that are so overstaf­fed with employees that many sleep on the job for something to do while other departments work hours of overtime?

Being a person, professional or nonprofessional, working at CHC, to provide quality health care deserves at a minimum re­spect and treatment as a person, not a worthless object that as can be treated as the mood of the individu~ changes. To manage a Commu~1ty Health Care facility and pro VI de the care that is neces­sary takes the corporation at all. Management under the dictator approach only leads to discon-

tent, low moral and worst of all apathy.Goingtoworkmaynotbe ~e number one priority on ones hst of things to do, but it should ~enjoyable, now ask yourself did I en JOY going to work today? The current management re­sponse to that is, if they don't like it here then they can go find another job elsewhere. What kind of management is that? Why ~ot find solutions to discontent, 1~volve employees, treat them like ~pie, and live up to your promises. Health care is a field one goes into because they want to help others, and the attitude of Don't. Worry be Happy doesn't cure lilness or improve health care.

We would love to sign this let­ter, but better judgement tells us that individuals in the past have tried to discuss the problems and offer solutions no longer work at CHC.

As we get older, we may not put so much store in the gifts we received as in the relationships with others we have during Christmas time.

Yes, there may be problems with Christmas, it maybe too commercial with not enough emphasis put on the birth of Christ and too much on Santa Claus, but it will al ways remain a special season for those countries around the world who celebrate

Christmas Remains Special

We remember more those holi­days when our whole family was

welcomed time of year in that it allows for the local custom we know as "dinana familia" to flourish among us all. And it is this very aspect in our celebration of the Holiday Season which keeps us together as a closely knitted commun-ity. It is this very tradition which allows us to nurture harmony and unity among ourselves. Sum en manngi na kustum bretta este i "dinana".

For many people, when con­versation turns to discussion about Christmas, they begin to say how commercial it all i~ and how the true meaning of Christ­mas is hardly recognized. I have listened often to such talk. It has

· its points. Other people will talk about

how Christmas is for kids. That too has its points. But I think however you feel about Christ­mas as it is observed today, you have to be touched somewhat by this special time of year.

Somewhere in our memory each of us carry recordings of special Christmases. The reason why individual Christmas are given a higher priority in our memory banks tend to change as we grow older.

Holidays Are For Everyone In about 48 hours, it'll be

Christmas Day 'neath every star and palm tree. The festive mood of the Holiday Season is upon us. It's that one time of the year when everybody (Haole, Filipino, Chino, Chamorro, etc.) unite under a single umbrella to ex-

change joyful felicitation to one and all. Why not, we all deserve the joy that comes with the Holi­day Season.

In the olden days, this is one occasion when every family bakes pastries or cook yam, put them in a basket and leave it in front of the house for passersby or for the group that brings the

Traditionally, it's that time of year when every Chamorro and Carolinian braces for the birth of the Nino Jesus. It is the most

Nino Jesus to the homes of our people in the villages. This tradi­tion (making available bunelos dago for everybody) seems lost but has since become an immedi­ate family event. What with the price of this rare item having jumped beyond the reach of most people. It has, however, taken on a different form-burned meat and beer!

When families get together, we each kiss the hands of our elderly and wish them well as we prepare to welcome the New Year. It could be a very moving moment especially for those who recently lost a loved-one (mom or dad) or both. This moment of reflection, coupled with the thought of "how it used to be", makes you wish they were still around. Let us pray for them. Let us also not lose sight of the fact that life goes on.

It's that time of year when no one wants to be late going to the traditional Misan Gayu (mid· night mass) in that Chrisunas, for our people, begins with this event- -Misan Gayu. When it's over, we all head to our parents' home to kiss their hands. It's an important custom which puts us (individually) in our place. In other words, this exercise (kiss· ing of our elders' hands) estab· lishes and nurtures respect among ourselves. Hana' tutungo kada uno haye manainana.

It's that time of year when no onecaresaboutredundancy. Yes, the holiday greeting "Merry Christmas" is repeated time and time again at this time of year. And ''although . it's been said many times, many ways", it never loses its freshness. Indeed, I extend a profound Felis Pasgua Yan Ano Nuebo to each of you. Merry Christmas to one and all.

Attorney James Sirok, Rotar­ian, disagreed with Tan statement that no checks are cashed by the poker machine outlets. Sirok said that he handles several cases that had to do with bad checks. He said that in one case one person had wrote about twenty bad checks which amounted to thou­sands of dollars to play poker machine.

Tan, who also is an of the owner of banned poker machines on Guam, said that he hopes the Rotary and Chamber of Com­merce Clubs will form a commit­tee to study the issue and come up with data.

tors some facts he had put to­gether on the effect of the rate hike on electrical bills of con-sumers.

"A family with only a televi­sion set, 11refrigerator, and a hot plate used for about three hours a day would see their electrical bill double from $25 per month to $55 per month," said Sen. Her­man Guerrero.

"A family with an electrical range, a television set, a refrig"' erator, and one 18.000 BTU air conditioner, would see their bill go from $100 a month to $190 a month," he added.

The effect of the rate hike on small business operations was also covered by Sen. Herman Guerrero.

"A small office with two 18,000 BTU air conditioners would see their electrical bill triple from $100 a month to $270 per month," he said.

"A Mom and Pop store with a refrigeration and three air condi­tioners, or a small restaurant, or a

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1988 -- MARIANAS V ARIE.TY NEWS~ VIEWS -- PAGE 9

Lt. Gov. Speaks at Investment Conference ways that private capital could be transferred to the CNMI for infrastructure development in recognition of stresses on local infrastructure being created by Japanese invesunent He said that the. investigation team identified for possible assistance fisheries develop­ment such as cold storage facilities, and boats; and electrical and water transmis­sion lines; schools; and other projects.

CNS - "Economic develop­ment is the p a r a m o u n t objective of our government, and ... economic development in the Northern Mariana Islands means development of the private sector economy through private invesunent, both local and foreign," Lt. Gov. Pedro A. Tenorio stated , at · a December 7 conference in Tokyo on investment in the CNMI, Guam and the Republic of Palau.

The Lt. Governor told Japanese investors of the Commonwealth's stable and safe investment environment because of its unique relation­ship with the United States; the CNMl's plans to rebuild and expand its infrastructure during the next four years; ind the types of investment which are appropriate in an island environment.

There are two basic develop­ment goals for invesunent and development in the CNMI, Tenorio told representatives from the Japanese companies at the conference. They are: 1) to develop the economy of the CNMI so that income levels of CNMI citizens will b e comparable to U.S. mainland income levels when adjusted for local conditions, and 2) to maintain Qptimal levels of economic growth while protecting the environmental and social svstems of the

Commonwealth. Tenorio noted that at present

the economy of the CNMI is based on three commercial sectors - tourism, construction, and a specialized garment industry. He emphasized that· the CNMI has a chronic labor shortage which must be filied by carefully controlled import­ation of temporary foreign workers. He went on to say t!tat severe labor shortage means t,hat "in general labor intensive industries and labor intensive agriculture. develop­ments are not appropriate, for the Commonwealth." The Lt. Governor noted that "the garment indnstry will most likely be strictly controlled wi~ no more growth to be allowed in Saipan."

Tenorio stated that we "aim to become a world class tourist destination." He identified ventures centering on manage­ment of renewable resources such as tourism, aquaculture, fisheries and high value added agriculture as appropriate investments given the limited resources, fragile ecosystems of the islands, and labor shortage in the CNMI. "Because we are aware that the world wide stocks of seafood products in the wild will not be adequate in the 21st century," Lt. Gov. Tenorio announced that the CNMI is working cooperative­ly with the U.S. Denartment of

Agriculture to produce a feasibility study for both surface water and cold deep ocean water aquaculture investment in the CNMI. The deep ocean water option would most likely accompany a move to electrical energy production using Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) tech­nology which creates electrical power using nutrient rich, pathogen free cold water pumped from the deep oce;pi.

In addition to the production of aquaculture and high value added agriculture products, the processing and packing of such products would be appropriate investments in the CNMI. "There could also be important opportunities in highly. automated light manufacturing activities such as phannaceutic­als or cosmetics using locally produced raw materials," he added. He_ also noted interest shown by locally produced raw materials," he added. He also noted interest shown by investors in retirement com­m unities in the CNMI and pointed out that "in line with our privatization policy, there could ... be an opportunity for private investment in solid waste management, especially in incineration of solid waste and cogeneration of power or desalinized water.

The Lt Governor set these development priorities within

the context of l1'e recenlly completed strategic develop­ment plan outlining more than $ll0 million in capital improvement projects which will provide the Supporting infrastructure for the new invesunent Over $50 million has been identified for improvements to power systems on Saipan, Tinian and Rota and over $20 million has been allotted for water systems on these islands, he stated. He also pointed out that more than $28 million will be spent to modernized and expand the Saipan harbor and another $5 million will be used to improve the Tinian and Rota Harbors.

Lt Gov. Tenorio noted that the development plan identified capital improvement needs in excess of available funding and announced that the CNMI Government welcomes capital development assistance from foreign countries "as long as the assistance is industry to industry" and not government to government. Tenorio said the U.S. Deparunent of State has indicated that the U.S. would not object to non-gov­ernment assistance that would benefit the people of the Commonwealth. As an example, Tenorio said that last year the Engineering Advance­ment Association of Japan sent a team to Saipan to identify

The Lt Governor closed by stating that "The Common­wealth of the Northern Mariana Islands welcomes appropriate investment in our islands. Appropriate investments are those which enhance our social, cultural, and physical environments, provide jobs for our citizens, and reduce our dependence on imports."

No Poker Action Taken By House Erompaqe 1

members on the· issue before ialcing action.

One piece of action which was urged by the House Speaker Guerrero was to have village by village public h~ngs on the Senate Bill to prohibit poker machines. ·

Rep. Manuel Sablan said his committee will meet right after Christmas to see if they agree with the Speaker's suggestion on holding public hearings ..

After the House session was over, Speaker Guerrero was interviewed and asked abouf the comments made by Rep. David Sablan.

"There was never any consen­sus by the Democratic leadership on the poker machine issue," said Speaker Guerrero. "Rep. David Sablan misunderstood."

The Speaker pointed to a stack of petitions on his desk which were signed by persons who were asking him not to ban poker

machines because of the effect it would have on government reve­nues and because of the fact that the petition said loss of jobs would result.

"I can not ignore these people," said Guerrero. "We have to go to the public on this issue and let them tell us how they feel. n

Guerrero also denied previous statements by Rep. David Sablar. that compromises were made in the budget drafted by Rep. Sa­blan in order that the poker ma­chine issue could be placed be­fore the House for action during the session.

For his part, Rep. David Sa­blan left the session saying the. action by his fellow Democrats led by Speaker Guerrero was "a complete turn around on the committnent of the Democratic Party."

It is expected that Senate Bill 6-3 7 will once again be placed on the agenda for the next House Session scheduled for Dec. 28.

Rep. Torres Upset Over House Managaha Island Concession Action On POI

By Tom Anderson Managing Edjtoc Even though.over a month has

And although MPLC has al­ready decided to go out for bids for the concession rights, Torres fired off a letter to House Vice Chairman Benigno Sablan de­nouncing the action taken by the House. The letter was directed to the Vice Chairman because he chaired the House session when Managaha was discussed since the Speaker was participating in 902 talks at the time.

"In addition," he said. "The Arthur D. Little plan emphati­cally advocates the localization of small scale tourism related business. I find it ironic that the House action doesn't follow what we are preaching, and is a blatant departure of our goals and aspira­tions."

Torres also took off after Rep. Manuel Sablan, whohasaninter­est in PDI, because Sablan had discussed the PDI project on Managaha while the House was considering the resolution.

"When a member declares a conflict of interest, that member must keep quiet, that is the law," said Torres.

Rep. Sablan replied to Torres that he spoke only to give infor­mation to the House as it was requested of him and that he was not actively involved in the de­bate over the resolution, nor did he vote on the resolution.

Tourism Education Offered at NMC The Visitor Industry Pro­

gram (V.I.P.) at the Northern Marianas College w a s established in recognition of the high demand for employees in the growing tourism industry. Today, locals as well as other interested individuals who have ambitions for a career in the visitor industry can pursue their choice of study right here on Saipan.

The intention of the V .LP. is to provide students with the necessary academic knowledge and technical skills through various courses and practical experience requirements so that,

they can competently be prepared to hold jobs in the diveisified tourism industry.

The curriculum is purpose­fully designed so that students must meet standards of achievement in general education and must acquire not only the specialized knowledge needed for their tourism industry careers but a Is o understand the basic functions, objectives, and tools o f management which are common in our business world.

Moreover, students in either the CERTIFICATE or

DEGREE program will also be required to complete an Intem­sh ip/Practical Experience requirement. Through the Internship Program, students will have the opportunity to gain valuable "hands-on" experience in a variety of job positions within the local tourism industry. The Intern­ship/Practical Experience requirement of the V.I.P. will have a: significant impact on the success of the program because students will have the chance to functionally apply the concepts and theories learned in the classrooms,

interact with others in a real work environment, and use their skills under close monitoring and supervision of a practitioner.

The NMC is offering Certificates of Proficiency in Hotel Operations, Food & Beverage Specialist, General Tourism Business Practices, and Tour Manager Specialist. In addition, there arc presently two Associate Degrees being offered in the V.I.P., Hospitality Management (A.S. Degree) and General Tourism Industry Business Practices (A.A. Degree).

.. ,T. . . s·· ... _;._ ..

The present and future needs for professionally trained personnel in the tourism industry are considerable and continues to grow. In fact, the number of qualified workers available today is less than the number of job openings. And the projected growth of our local tourism industry here in the CNMI will continue to create a high demand for employees in this exciting field.

For more details about the Visitor Industry Program, contact Tony Deleon Guerrero at the NMC.

charge for electrical power made from the reading of meters in­stead of using a flat rate is inching forward with those involved in the metering process slowly identifying the problem it faces and coming up with suggestion to solve those problems.

At the regular Commonwealth Utility Corporations Board meeting last week, reports on the metering process were submitted to board members. One report came from Manager of Admini­stration Paul Swanson. He rec­ommended the number of meter readers be increased from the current three with one supervisor to six with one supervisor.

"The meter readers should be the eyes and ears of CUC. They should not only read meters, but should report illegal line tamper­ing, problems with customer services, locate illegal line taps, and provide information to cus­tomers," said Swanson.

Swanson also suggest a pay raise for the position of meter reader as a way to attract quali­fied people to the job, and as an incentive for those now em­ployed as meter readers.

Also dlscussed during the meeting was what path CUC plans to take in light of the dis­covery that meters can not be hooked up to the majority of its customers because of wiring problems.

Executive Director of CUC Pedro Sasarnoto advised the board that work was underway to have current transformer meters (CT meters) installed where pos­sible. The CT meters can be in­stalled ahead of the service en­trance of the customers building. Customers will be charged for theCTmeteriftheycannotbring the service entrance wiring into compliance with the electrical code.

Currently CUC is notify cus­tomers of this metering require­ment and a customers is being given 60 days to either make the wiring improvements or ask for a CT meter. Should the customer take no action, cue has an­nounced that customer will face a possibility of being discon­nected.

Customers are also being given information by CUC as to what action they should take to meet the electrical code require­ments ~d an estimate of the cost involved.

Tinian High School To Be Relocated PSS - Tinian High School

will be relocated to a 14.8 hectares land area in the Marpo Subdivision in Tinian, Education Commissioner Henry I. Sablan said.

Sablan said that th e relocation w~ll talcc place in about a year's time, and that the funding for the new high school has been identified in the 1988 seven-year capital improvement grant.

The head of the CNMI Public School System was in Tinian on Dec. 13 al the Parents Teachers-Association's invitation to discuss the relocation and other school­related issues such as the current Board of Education fundraising policy and the update on the school's capital improvement projects.

Sablan shid the PTA decided

to ask the Board of Education to amend the fundraising policy (Section 703. 7). "The PT A wants all funds collected for any specific objective be used as intended. And the forty (40) percent requirement under this policy be followed only when the PTA fundraises for its own use," he added.

The Commissioner com­mended the Tinian PT A for its strong and effective organiza­tion, and thanked the association for its support in making the transfer of the high school a reality.

Tinian school, which has kindergarten through grade 11, would like to relocate the high school to a different area in order to accommodate grade 12 and to meet future expanding enrollments and accreditation requirements, Sablan noted.

He told the PT A that a number of school facilities have been placed under the first group of projects to be built in Tinian in a year's time. These projects include the high school, an administration library building, a cafetorium, and five bus stop shelters.

While in Tinian, the Education Commissioner also assisted Mayor Ignacio Quichocho and Tinian Council Chairman Ignacio Cab1era in handing out awards to the students who had high academic standing, commend­able behavior, and perfect attendance during chis school year's first quarter.

The names of these students arc in the attached list.

NEED Workshop a Model of What Education The workshop wa5 sponsored

by the Commonwealth Energy Office, the CNMI NEED '89 Committee (from funds raised during the NEED Recycling Contest held in October), and the Commonwealth Depart­ment of Education, which brought teachers and students from Rota and Tinian to participate. "Everyone pitched in to make the workshop the success it was," Jocelyn DL Guerrero, Acting Energy Administrator, observed. She thanked Commissioner Henry I. Sablan, Quitugua, the Science Task Force members, the principals of the Common­wealth schools, and the teachers for their untiring support of NEED.

Be "The CNMI NEED '89

Committee deserves special praise," she added. "Its members teacher Cynthia Taisacan and students Junkyeong Kim, Kori Seki, Dora Borja, and Eddie Diaz Jr., exhibited the kind of leadership NEED is about." In addition to planning for the workshop, they assisted Woodward throughout.

"What is the Common­wealth's only exported energy source?" "How much does the Commonwealth pay for a barrel of oil?" Over 150 students and teachers from public and private schools throughout the Commonwealth learned the answers to these and countless other energy-related questions at a NEED (National Energy Education Day) work­shop conducted by Casey Woodward of the national NEED staff at the Common­wealth Convention Center, December 15 and 16.

Woodward has been with the NEED program since the beginning, in 1981, when as a 16-year-old student he organized the program in his home state of Oregon. He guided the CNMI students and teachers through a series of exercises and games, whose dual purpose was to convey information about energy. and develop leadership skills. I

Of great interest to th( participants was the GOAPf session. GO APE stands fa~ Goals-Objectives-Activities-Pre· paration-Evaluation - in short, the steps necessary to develop and execute a successful project. Using magic, Wood­ward demonstrated the importance of all aspects of GOAPE. Too often, people get almost to the end on a project and then give up. To illustrate his point, he successfully skewered a balloon without popping it, stressing that with patience, determination, and perseverance an_y of the participants could do the same thing. One could have heard the proverbial pin drop in the large Convention Center as he demonstrated his points.

Energy Jeopardy cl icited fierce competition among the participating teams, with avid cheering from the sides lines. One would have thought that a champion basketball game was going on, and not an education workshop. In the process, students learned, among other

facts, what had the potential to become the Commonwealth's leading renewable energy source (O.T.E.C., or Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion).

Woodward, who has traveled all over the U.S. giving work­shops, said that the participants here compared favorably with those elsewhere. He was impressed with how sharp they were, and how motivated, but surprised that only 50% knew that the Commonwealth imported 100% of its oil.

Rita Inos, principal on leave from Rota Elementary School, was delighted with what she observed. "The workshop gave me goose bumps," she said. "Seeing the kids interacting with each other the way they

did. Seeing them very open and learning. We need more work­shops like this, not just NEED. This is what education should be."

Jackie Quitugua, science specialist for the Department of Education, echoed Inos' sentiments. She attended the workshops both days and was most instrumental in making lhe workshop the great success it was.

Students and teachers alike left the workshops eneq~ized Lo introduce NEED materials in their schools. The games and carnival activities proved that learning can be great fun. "They can be adapted to other subjects besides energy," Woodward pointed out.

Saipan musicians have fre­quently been featured on the program, which has been appear­ing on Guam TV screens for the past four years.

Tom Unsiog, whose Island Video Productions created Island Magazine, said Saipan perform­ers in the past have included Alexandria Sablan, Emilio Ayuyu, David Ayuyu and "Sar­alu". Well-known Guam per­formers such as J.R. Reyes and Gus and Doll have also been featured.

MIHA Says Improvements Are Made The Mariana Islands Housing

Authority (MIRA) on Monday filed its response 10 the Senate Committee on Federal Relations and Independent Programs (FRIA)Reporton financial prob­lems that have plagued the Hous­ing Authority for the last year.

The response, while recogniz­ing that there are significant problems facing MIHA, indi­cates that efforts are being made to solve them. Since the hiring of Larry Rogers as a Special.Assis­tant Attorney General to repre­sent the agency in September, MIRA has been negotiating with the various contractors as well as working with other governmen­tal agencies such as the Com­monwealth Develop-ment Au­thority and the executive branch to resolve its problems.

Committee Says Drop Drug Land Loss Law

By Tom Anderson Managing Editor Get rid of the law which would

result in the loss ofland if a per­son is convicted of growing marijuana on that land, was the finding of the House Committee on Judiciary and Governmental _Operations.

During the last House of Rep­resentatives meeting, the com­mitteereport was presented to the full House by the members of the fO~mittee. In an unusual prac­'tice, some of the -committee members had written in com­ments beside their names on the committee report as it was pre­sented.

Rep. Juan S. Torres, wrote, "I don't support this legislation." While Rep. -Mariano R. Ber­mudes wrote "with reservations" next to his signature on the com­mittee report. Other committee members, Chairman Antonio Camacho, Rep. Manuel Sablan, and Rep. David Sablan signed the commitee report with any written comments added to their names.

The bill reviewed by the com­mittee is numbered House Bill 6-96 and it seeks to amend 6 CMC Section 2150, the law which deals with land loss for growing marijuana.

"The committee sees that 6 CMC Section 2150 is biased on particular offenders such as marijuana growers and therecal-

citrant penalty of land forfeiture, while am urderer is penalized by incarceration, suspension and/or fines," said thecommitteereport.

"When a person commits mur­der, he would be allowed a jury trial and his land is not forfeited. When a persons commits rob­bery, he would be afforded a jury trial and his land riot forfeited. When a person plants marijuana his land and home are forfeited and he would not be afforded a jury trial. Is planting marijuana much worse thrutiaking some­one's live? " asked the commit­tee.

In the report to the full House, the committee also said such land loss laws maybe all right in areas such as the U.S. mainland but such laws do not fit into the value system of the Commonwealth.

"Laws should be enacted in consonant with the values of the Chamorro and Carolinian people of the Northern Marinas," said the committee, " To enact laws contrary to those values, the leg­islature is raping its own people and is a hypocrite in itself."

"In the continental United States lands are in abundance. This comparison of land mass en tails that land is scarce in the CNMI and if it is forfeited by the government, it will definitely disrupt the family structure of the Commonwealth."

During public hearings on the bill conducted by the committee,

$ STORE HOURS 5 MON.· SAT. 9 AM • 8 PM -5 SUN. 12 PM ·B PM -

the attempt to get rid of tire land loss law was opposed by mem­bers of the law enforcement community such as the Director of Department of Public Safety Ed Manibusan, Drug Enforce­ment Task Force Director Ray Busa, and Attorney General Alex Castro. All told the committee

Rep. Antonio Camacho they felt the land loss law was important in the fight against drugs in the Commonwealth and also said they felt the repealing of the land loss law would send a message to drug dealers that the Commonwealth had a liberal drug policy.

Tanapag School Tries to Raise $15,000 to Buy Playground Equipment

PSS - Tanapag Elementary School will have its Chamolinian Day on February 24 in an effort to raise money to buy playground equipment for the school, said Chamolinian Day Chairperson Frances Chong.

She said the school is selling raffle tickets and the parents are selling hot lunches in order to raise SlS,000 to purchase the playground equipment.

Chong said the raffle drawing will be held on the Chamolinian Day. One of the prizes to be given out on this day is the baby grand prize, a 19" color television with remote control, donated by Congressman Gabriel Babauta.

Also to be held on the Chamolinian Day will be the coronation of the school's King and Queen and a mini school fair.

"I am confident and positive that we will collect $15,000 to buy the playground equip­ment," Chong said.

She said that this is the first time the school fundraiscs for playground equipment. In the past, the school had fundraising to buy computers, she added.

Chong is a first grade teacher at Tanapag Elementary. A former Student Council President at Marianas High School, she attended the University of Guam before becoming a teacher at Tanapag School over two years ago.

NOTE: Vincent DLG. Torres, a

senior at Marianas High School, was on the Honor Roll list during the first quarter. His name was inadvertently excluded in the high school's list printed in last Friday's paper.

Trees of Hope Planted

CNS - With ihe wonderful ability to grow where .almost nothing else can grow, some leguminous trees are sometimes called "Trees of Hope." Leguminous trees are trees in the Pea Family of Plants. Tropical foresters are planting leguminous trees around the world and right here in the Northern Marianas too, according to the CNMI Forestry Division.

Local residents are familiar with tangantangan, iron wood and monkey pod and flame trees. But did you know these are leguminous trees? Plants in the pea family have almost magic ability to fertilize themselves at the same time improving the soil they grown in. They do this by taking nitrogen from the air and putting it in the soil.

Two other leguminous trees, Auri and Mangium are now growing successfully on Guam, Rota and Saipan. These were planted on the "badlands" where only swordgrass or even bare ground existed. These badlands were created by people clearing the natural trees, and setting fire every year to the areas. Eventually the good topsoil washed away in the frequent rains. With no trees to help absorb the rainfall, areas below were often flooded.

Auri and Mangium are very fast growing trees. They add lead litter and nitrogen to the soil, improving it. Eventually, foresters will be able to plant trees more native to the islands. So far: approximately 20 acres have been planted on Rota and Saipan, with more areas planted in the next few years.

Hopefully the islands of the CNMI will never become a tropical desert, like much of southern Guam. The Forestry Section is planting the leguminous "trees of hope" in areas suffering from constant burning, to assure that the Marianas will remain beautiful, green islands.

MVB Rota Office Opening Celebrated

A new agehas dawned on Rota as the Marianas Visitors Bureau celebrated a milestone in its his­tory with the opening of the Rota Visitor Infonnation Center on December 16, 1988.

"The completion of the center shows your bureau's commit­ment to continue improving fa­cilities for our visitors through­out the Commonwealth," said Peter JL Igitol, Chainnan of the Board of Directors of MVB.

Igitol called the facility "the dream" and recognized the sup­port of Governor Tenorio, the Rota delegation to the Common­wealth Legislature and Rota Mayor Manglona in making the facility a reality.

Rota Mayor Prudencio Man­glona noted that in the past visi­tors came to his office seeking information on the island. Due to the increasing volume of visitors to Rota, he pressed MVB to build the center in order to provide better services for the visitors.

"I wish to thank:MVB, Gover­nor Tenorio, and the Legislature for their support in building this

beautiful center. I hope that through this partnership and cooperation, we can continue to improve the economy of Rota," Mayor Manglona said.

Designed by MVB Field Op­erations Manager Felix Sablan, the center's architecture incorpo­rates the "latte stone" a unique feature of ancient edifices. The latte stone served as pillars of the homes of ancient Chamorros.

Rota has been the subject of recent proposals which would enhance the advancement of its visitor industry. Continenta]/

Air Micronesia has submitted a proposal to the U.S. Depart­ment of Transportation to serve Rota with three daily flights from Guam and two daily round trips between Rota and Saipan, thrice weekly flights ona penna­nent basis. A joint venture be­tween foreign investors and local business-men was unveiled which would develop more than a thousand acres of land into a resort area including four hotels, three golf courses, shopping centers, and a mini-hospital.

Mrs. Benjamin T. Manglona, Miss Shana Sablan , and Mrs. Prudencio T. Manglona officially open the Rota Vistors Information Center with a ribbon cutting.

Travel Extravaganza Part Of MVB Rota Office Ceremony

Winners of the "travel extrava­ganza" raffle were drawn at the opening ceremony of the Rota Visitor Infonnation Center on December 16, 1988. The raffle was co-sponsored by the Mari­anas Visitors Bureau (MVB) and

· the Office of the Mayor of Rota. Over $5,000 was raised and

will be used for projects under the Mayor's beautification pro­gram. Prizes were donated by MVB members including the grand prize which consisted of a round-trip ticket for two to Ma­nila and $200cash contributed by Continental/Air Micronesia and Nippon Travel Agency Pacific Incorporated, respectively. Other prize donors included HIT A Travel-Rota branch, Pacific Development Incorporated, Jetour Saipan Incorporated,

R&C Tours Saipan, Nippon Express 1:-iawaii Company, STS Enter-prises, Guam Marianas Air, Rota Pau-Pau Hotel, Japan AirLines,Jalpak, Tasi Tours and Transportation, Guam Tokyu Express, Northwest Airlines, and RIC Tours.

"The money raised would not have been possible without the generosity of our tourism friends in the CNMI," said J.M. Guer­rero. "The Mayor's Office on Rota, Northern Marianas Hotel Association, and the Saipan As­sociation ofTour Agents assisted in selling the tickets. We extend our appreciation to them and our MVB members for their active involvement in community proj­ects such as this. Their participa­tion is proof their tourism works for the CNMI.

Consumers Focus Of Bill !·I

'

By Tom Anderson Managing Editor More protection for consum­

ers in the Commonwealth may be on the way as a House Bill en­titled the "Consumer Protection Act of 1988", which has already passed the House, is beginning to work its way through the Senate.

In a Senate session, Wednes­day the bill was passed on first reading with little discussion on the bill by the Senators.

The intention of the bill is to assure consumers of full value and protect them from deceptive practices. It also seeks to provide a way for disputes between con­sumers and merchants to be re­solved and to clarify the rights of the consumer and the rights of the merchant

House Committee on Com­merce and Tourism reviewed the bill and found the laws on the books which now protects the consumer

to be incomplete. Not only are the current con­

sumer protection laws incom­plete, said the committee, but the penalties for violating the laws need to be tougher. The Bill now under consideration by the Sen­ate would make an offense of its provision punishable by a fine of $2,500 for each violation.

In addition, the bill seeks to establish a Consumer Counse! within the Attorney General's Office to inform consumers of their rights and be a consumer advocate within the government.

Eighteen practices are enu­merated in the bill to be disal­lowed. Among the eighteen are the following:

*Representing that any food, food product, beverage, drug, or any other substance is fit for human consumption, ifitis not fit for human consumption.

*Failing to reveal any known defect in or damage to any item

DEQ Weekly Water Report Is Issued

The Division of Environ-men­tal Quality analyzed samples of drinking water from the Island of Saipan...this week. . .Water from Gualo Rai, San Jose, Chalan Kanoa, San Antonio, Koblerville andtheairportcontainednochlo­rine residual.

Residents of these areas should boil their water before using it for drinking, food preparation, or freezing as a precaution against possible bacterial contamina­tion.

Note: The Division of Envi­ronmental Quality analyzes

drinking water from island pub­lic water supplies each week. DEQ will submit a drinking wa­ter report to the news metl.ia each week. Only those areas where excessive coliform bacteria are found or where there is insuffi­cient chlorine at the time of sam · piing to ensure a sanitary water supply will be published. DEQ welcomes all inquiries as to the quality of drinking water. The public is encourage to phone DEQ at 234-6114 or 234-6984 with any questions concerning the public water supply.

Mayor To Stop Water Delivery By Tom Anderson Managing Edltorw Water delivery which use to be

made by the Office of Mayor Gilbert Ada will be stopped, the House of Representatives was informed during their last ses­s10n.

Ada, in a letter to the House, reported that pressing needs on the manpower of his office led to his decision to stop water deliv­ery to all but bereaved families.

"We are making this decision basedonevaluationsofourexist­

.J ing manpower capability, the )1 amount of other vital and critical

programs needed to be carried

!ages," said Ada. Areas such as village clean-up

by hauling away junk cars and debris, and needed road improve­ment projects were pointed to by Ada as areas in which the man­power of his office will have to concentrate on in the future in lieu of delivering water.

·I,:'. projects, and community action

~- out in our communities and vil-1\

Other factors affecting his decision were also named by the Saipan Mayor such as the lack of funding to pay forthe overtime of employees who have been pro­viding the water service. Ada also said the planned improve­ments in water service of CUC was also considered when he made the decision to stop water delivery.

placed in the market place unless that item is stated to be sold on an "as is" basis.

*Representing that a service is provided by a qualified person, if the merchant knows that person is not truly qualified.

*Engaging in price fixing which bears no reasonable rela­tionship to the actual cost of the merchandise.

*Stocking merchandise Or!

shelves or on display unless the price of the merchandise is cleared marked.

*Representing that a part, re­placement, or repair service is needed when in fact it is not.

The bill also address the ques­tion of false and misleading ad­vertising and would prohibit any merchant from discriminating in commerce with any one because of that persons race, creed, color, religion, sex, age, ethnic back­ground, national origin, citizen­ship, place of birth, or residence.

During the Holidays, even political leaders are friendly as Governor Pedro P. Tenorio and Lt. Gov. Pedro P. Tenorio stopped by the Legislature to give Christmas Greetings to House Speaker Pedro Guerrero and Sentate President Ben· iamin Manqlona.

Mobil Oil Makes Present to Local Schools

PSS - Mobil Oil Micronesia, Inc., last Friday (Dec. 16) presented 500 copies of 1989 Mobil calendar to the Public School System.

Making the presentation on behalf of Mobil Oil Micronesia, Inc., was Carlos P. Camacho, Area Manager­West.

On hand to acknowledge the receipt of the calendar in a brief ceremony held at the Board of Education's conference room at Lower Base, Saipan, were Vice Chairman of the Board of Education Juan B. Tudela and Commissioner of Education Henry I. Sablan.

Both Tudela and Sablan extended their heartfelt gratitude to Mobil Oil for its thoughtful contribution, and noted that the calendars would be useful in the classrooms not only because of their excellent underwater color pictures but also because of their vital information such as holidays and zip, fax, phone, and telex codes for the Micronesian islands including Guam and the Northern Marianas.

Printed on fine glossy paper in Taipei, the calendar was put together in Saipan by Francisco Uludong and his staff from the Pacific World Associates, a public relations agency of the Pacific Information Bank.

INO The Immigration Service

Office wishes to inform the General Public that commencing January I, 1989, evidence of a valid passport will be required prior to grant­ing any Entry Permit. This requirement will extend lo all entry classifications, including Non-resident workers.

PUBLIC NOTICE A recently conducted Leak Detection Study has proven what the government suspected regarding leaks in the water system. Nearly 55% of all the water leaks occur on the customer side of the sy~tem. These leaks are mainly the result of the following problems:

I. Rainwater/Catchment Tanks are connected to the public water supply without a float valve or other controls to prevent overfilling. During water hours the ranks continuously overflow draining the water supply pipes.

2. Water service lines to occupied homes and businesses are either on the surface of the ground or very shallow. 'these lines are cracked or otherwise poorly installed and allow considerable waste.

3. Open hose bibs, abandoned homes, and cut service lines are the next biggest cause of wasted water.

4. Finally, the leaks in kitchen,,bathroom and laundry faucets in most homes combine to account for significant losses.

As residents on a small island with limited water resourc~ we must all work together to prevent unnecessary waste. Failure to conLrol waste may result in a decision to disconnect your service.

ls/PEDRO SASAMOTO Executive Director, CUC

PUBLIC NOTICE Dear Customer:

The Commonwealth Utilities Corporation is recommending that all new residential water service lateral be installed in 3/4 "PVC Schedule 80". Our standard water meters are sized to accommodate. this type of installation. It will also help to reduce the cost for the CUC and our customers both in installation and future monthly billings.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping the CUC to standardize our water system.

ls/PEDRO SASAMOTO Executive Director, CUC

PUBLIC NOTICE All unauthorized water taps to the Commonwealth Utilities Corporation lines must be registered and reported as soon as possible but before December 10, 1988.

After December 10, 1988 any unreported, unauthorized water taps will be disconnected and only by proper registration can they be connected again.

All water deliveries must be metered and CUC will furnish your meters. Please contact CUC to obtain instructions and meters.

CUC advises those who are presently receiving water service and are not registered with CUC as a customer or are not being billed for water service to inform CUC immediately. Failure to do so will result in disconnection and discontinuation of service.

CUC will not allow anyone to tamper with the meters or break the meter seal for any reason. Only authorized CUC personnel may remove or install a meter or break the seal. The seal is CUC's insurance of metering integrity. Any customer whose meter has been tampered with will be subject to immediate disconnection fee, reconnection fee, deposits, plus any legal foes incurred by CUC in prosecution.

This notice is made in accordance with Article IX Disconnection of Water Service, and Article V Installation of Water Service Connections and as established by the Regulations Governing the use of the CUC Water System, effective July, 1988.

Your cooperation is appreciated. Si Yuus Maase

Don't let the gas station attendant "top.off" your tank by filling i~ to the brim after the nozzle's automatic shutoff stops the flow. This often results in overflow and a waste of gasoline. Also, in warmer weather some space should be left in the tank for expansion.

Finance Director Warns Of Revenue Shortfall By Tom Anderson Managing Editor Every time a piece of legisla­

tion is passed it can cause some reaction in the area of govern­mentfinances,andevery time the court decides the merits of case involving government fees and taxation it can also cause a finan­cial reaction, was the message Department of Finance Director Eloy Inos brought to the House of_ Representatives.

Inos told the House members that a shortfall in the budget of $6.5 million could happen if leg­islation aimed at banning poker machines, a court decision on land alienation, the shutting of gannentfactories, and a decision regarding gross receipts taxes on air transportation, all happened in the fiscal year ofl 989.

He gave estimates of what the above events could cost the gov­ernment. The banning of the poker machines would mean a loss of approximately $1.5 mil-

lion dollars, said Inos. The equity question of certain

land transactions contrary to the land alienation provision of Ar­ticle XII of the CNMI Constitution could result in tax refunds of $2 million.

The shutdown of the two gar­ment factories and the imminent closure of four more could result in a reduced user fees and with­holding taxes of $1 million and the issue of non-applicability of gross receipts taxes on air trans­portation could result in refunds of $2 million also.

"If _these issues are resolved and/or eventS. take place within this fiscal year against revenues, we could expect a painful reve­nue effect of approximately $6.5 million," said Inos.

The news brought by Inos, news which was prompted by a letter from Senate President Benjamin Manglona who asked Inos what was the state of the government financihl status so

Rep. Ada Wants Turtle Taken Off Threaten List

By Tom Anderson Managing Editor. Because the green turtle is

threatened with extinction in other parts of the world is not enough of a reason for it to be protected in the waters around the Commonwealth.is whatRep. William C. Ada has said in a resolution he has introduced in the House of Representatives.

Ada is requesting the 902 rep­resentatives to endeavor to ren­der inapplicable to the Northern Marianas Islands the listing of the green turtle as a threatened species under the joint regula­tions of the United States Fish and Wildlife- Service, Depart-

ment of Atmospheres Admini­stration and Department of Commerce.

In his resolution, acknowl­edged the fact that any action to unilaterally remove the green turtle from the threatened species list of the federal government may endanger federal funds.

Ada request that the topic be placed on the agenda of the 902 talks between the U.S. and its Commonwealth for further ne­gotiations.

Ada said that the green turtle is still considered a source of food supply for native peoples of the Commonwealth and is also used in cultural ceremonies.
