Lt. Governor Benjamin T. Manglona, theCNMI’sChiefnego­tiator to the 902 talks, is both opti­mistic and hopeful that the agree­ments forged between the federal and the Commonwealth govern­ments will finally be implemented with the scheduled resumption of talks between the two parties.

After a six month lull, the 902 negotiations is scheduled to resume from November 18-20 on Saipan.

Manglona is expected to discuss with newly appointed permanent representative to the negotiations Lou Gallegos, several issues affect­ing the Commonwealth and its re­lationship with the federal govern­ment

Among the Issues to be discussed during the three-day meet include the proposal to conduct a marine mincralsrcsearch, submerged lands and the exclusive economic zone issues.

The scheduled senatorial can­didates’ debate, to be held on October 26, 1991 at the Con­vention Center, has been offi­cially called off by the organiz­ers Saipan Chamber of Com­merce, after one of the candidates declined to participate in the fo­rum.

Democratic senatorial candi­date Juan S. Reyes recently begged off the scheduled one- on-one debate with Republican aspirant Juan S. Demapan ap­parently on account of an exist­ing commitment fora fundraising event scheduled on the proposed

debate date.Opting to “make my record as

a lawmaker speak for itself’, Reyes indicated that he would rather have one forum to meet his opponent instead of schedul­ing a scries of debates.

According to Reyes, who is an incumbent mcmbcrof the House of Representatives, another ex­isting debate commitment on October 22, 1991 with the Marianas High School National Honor Society, which apparently would make his confrontation with Demapan somewhat re­dundant..

The celebrated debate between Reyes and Demapan is being

coordinated by the Saipan Chamber of Commerce and is holly being awaited by the gen­eral public.

Such a confrontation is being viewed as one that could make or break a candidate for the Saipan senatorial scat.

But Reyes apparently was not so keen on the confrontation, although he agreed that debates arc a healthy part in determining the suitability of candidates for certain public offices.·

In a letter to Chamber Presi­dent Joe T. Ayuyu, Reyes said he believed that the Chamber has over-extended itself in their decisions to include even sena­torial candidates to debate.

“What may soon be a bi-an­nual chamber event is for the House candiales to be included in such a forum, and next, per­haps would be the mayoralty and municipal council candidates,” Reyes letter to Ayuyu said.

He further indicated that he would prefer that he would rather have only one forum to meet his opponent in discussing vital is­sues confronting the Common­wealth.

Gallegos assured the Common­wealth that the issue on the con­servation and management of tuna will be discussed in the next round of negotiations pending further dis­cussions with the State Department regarding the issue.

Manglona and Gallegos are also expected to include in their talks the issue of the Inspector General’s in­tent to review local tax files and the clarification of Gallegos’ role as special representative.

The talks was originally sched­uled for October 31 however, Manglona suggested that Gallegos’ appointment and authority be first clarified before any talks ensue be­tween the two parties.

Manglona’s suggestion came af­ter what seemed to be a lag in the talks due to the difficulties en­countered by interim special repre­sentative Timothy Glidden in implementing agreements reached with the CNMI government due to opposition aired by several federal

agencies.The schedule and agenda for the

resumption of the 902 negotiations was formulated upon Manglona’s recenttripto WashingtonD.C. where he met Gallegos and other Interior Department officials.

Dear Editor,This is an open letter to our

public officials and specially the Casino Commission on Tinian.

Nearly two years ago, a great majority of our voters registered their desire to risk the future of generations by passing an initiative which would supposedly encourage investors to pour in millions upon millions of $$S for mega resorts that would lure the af­fluent communities throughout ■ our neighboring Asian Rim countries and elsewhere to spend more millions so that our elected ¡leaders will np longer have to beg, borrow or steal from whatever meager funds Saipan /or Rota could share with us to provide for our community needs.

Since the passage of the Gaming initiative, many of us have seei and heard of develop­ers as well as with investors come wild expectations, and then leave us with great antici­pations of exotic images of changes yet to come..

Our elected leaders, specially those in the Gaming Commission, have lost sight of our original and primary ob­jective which is to improve the living conditions of residents in general.

So far, the only individuals benefitting arc those directly involved by the offices of elected officials and the gaming commission.

Our elected officials and the gaming commission, have stood aside and allowed for the enactment of text after text of procedures without merit and or concern for such impacts and or consequences such procedures

will have upon the developers and/or investors who would be discouraged completely before

• they would even find the will­ingness to invest in our future.

Let’s all stop dreaming about the bright lights that Tinian wants to see someday in our midst. Instead, let at first look at what we have now. We have an initiative that legalizes gam­ing which then created a body to produce volumes of proce­dures with the intents of keep­ing out investments under the disguise of measures needed for control . Control what? Control who? What/Who are we going to control if no one wants to come in to put huge sums of SSS needed for this dream to come true,

Second, we need many other things we do not have such as sewer, electricity, water, roads, airports , people with skills and many others. We still do not have a master plan. All these cost s more than SSS that even our own government do not even know what it will even cost let alone where they are going to find the SSS needed for all these. If we as­sume that the developers will provide the SSS for all of these, then WHY are we doing every­thing to dissuade them from wanting to come and spend the SSS we all need from them.

Our leaders and our gaming commission lack the experi­ence and have a limited know­how of the complexities in­volved with the gaming indus­try. They arc dependent on some hired help from some far- off section of the U.S. Mainland who have duplicated sets after sets of procedures and perhaps, even more from

Atlantic City N.J. with the in­tention of implementing them on Tinian. But why? Perhaps, because those are what he is familiar of? Who know? maybe he is just home sick and wants to feel as if he is back in his home state. Since he has been only out here recently, it prob­ably has not dawned on him that what might have smelled good in Atlantic City may re­ally just stink awfully bad here. In fact, he has already be­gun to smell and we are just starting.

This part is,queer but inter­esting to say the least. If one accusses the Governor's Office in connection with the Attorney general's Office for impeding the process then those making the accusations would have to be the gaming commission. Why not?

The Gaming Commission would like nothing better than to fight whatever it takes to keep their unprecedented high salary of 575,000 per annum plus unrestricted travel to oilier gaming jurisdiction.

If one points the finger to our local elected officials then, the ones pointing would have to be the outside hired help. They would not dare point to­wards the gaming commission. Otherwise, the gaming com­mission will fire them for it when it was the same agency that hired them. Could it be that the hired help may be re­sponsible? Ah, but they arc supposed to be the experts! Why else arc they paid such high wages and get to play golf every week-end ”■ hilc the rest ol us languish in desperation.

The truth is quite obvious and plain enough for anyone to

understand. Its unfortunate because all of those mentioned are responsible but instead of working to resolve differences they prefer to worsen the entire matter by engaging oq bicker­ing and buck passing.

Its very easy and there are a number of options to pick. Some are good. Some not nearly as good. Some just not good at all. So far, the choices have not been good at all and after nearly two years of lip services, this joke ha's com­pletely lost its humor. We have all wasted a long time waiting for this opportunity to come to life and iis all because of the gaming commissions lack of of sophistication to ac­cept the validity of granting even temporary licenses based on the compliance of condi­tions. Let's stop dreaming that someday soon,someone will come here with his millions of $$$ and then say, "I want a casino license. Here's my. money. Go ahead and spend it." It will never happen. Never. We need to encourage devel­opment and not discourage it.

The real question is "How much more time can we af­ford?" Let us be realistic We have the Governor and the Attorney general filing an ap­peal with the Supreme Court the litigation of which may drag for years.

We have the Rota Gaming Initiative coming up this elec­tions which if passed, would prove the theory to be an "overkill." On top of all this, we still have our own gaming commission who can't figure out what to do. To answer the question, who knows? Maybe no one cares anymore. What do you think?

Dear Editor:

Congratulations to the South Pacific Games team on their efforts in the South Pacific Games in Papua New Guinea. Although the athletes did their best during the games, there is no doubt that the CNMI team was heavily outclassed by the stiff competition they faced.

For the most countries there, the competition was no about making friends and getting ex­perience, but about winning. Most of the athletes are

. seasoned veterans that have faced years of training and competition before being se­lected to represent their coun­tries. Sports is very serious business because national pride and self esteem is on the lihe.

That is why a poor country like Cuba will sacrifice them­selves, suffer shortages and go all out to host the Pan American Games. Even Papua" New Guinea, a third world country, will divert money from social welfare programs to sports to show visiting countries that they are capable country. Inspite of their inter­nal problems, they put every­thing aside and come together for two weeks to host the games.

I hope the next it won't be for making friends and getting experience, but to play to win.I would imagine that the spon­sors and the CNMI people, ex­pect and demand a better per­formance from the athletes rep­resenting them. 590,000 is a lot of money and the pride is priceless./s/Edward D.

House passes bill to correct resignationsHouse leaders on Monday

passed a bill eliminating the current requirement stipu­lating that Zoning Board members be voted into office.

The move was made sev­eral weeks after members of the Zoning Board, lead by its chairman Benigno Fitial, tendered their resignations en masse, to the Governor.

The measure was passed on first and final reading in the House and it is expected to be acted upon by the Senate in weeks to come.

The purpose of the amend­ment was to limit the high turn-over rate of its mem­bers, a situation evident during the last several

months.Two reasons were cited as

the cause for the high-turn- over rate include the quasi­political structure of the group where members have to run in an ordinary elec­tions to be retained for office and the limited number of individuals who are in­terested and technically ca­pable of serving the Zoning Board.

The measure will also re­quire the Board two out of seven members to be an of­ficer and employee of the CNMI.

The board’s composition will consist of a seven member core group who will

be confirmed by Gov. Guerrero.

Each of the Board’s mem­bers shall be of Northern Marianas descent or be a United States citizen who has been domiciled on Saipan for the last five years prior to their selection.

Board members will as­sume a two-year term which will commence upon the confirmation of the appoint­ment of the appropriate leg­islative delegation and may stay in office after a maxi­mum of three two year terms.

A replacement to a board member who has either resigned or died while in office, will be appointed by the Governor.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 22,1991-MARIANAS VARIETY NEWS AND VIEWS-3

M a n g lo n a u rg e s “ g o o d f a it h ” in 7 0 2 t a lk sby Rafael H. Arroyo

Lieutenant Governor Ben­jamin T. Manglona yesterday aired his disappointment at the rate negotiations for a new multi­year financial aid package are going on, urging his US counter­part in the talks to continue good faith negotiations in the so-called 702 talks.

In a news conference held at his office, the lieutenant gover­nor disclosed information on a letter to Territorial and Interna­tional Affairs Assistant Secre­tary Stella Guerra of the US Department of the Interior, wherein he questioned Guerra’s inability to send the US panel’s counter-proposals to theCNMI’s position aired during the most recent the most recent round of discussion in Honolulu about a

. month ago.During that meet, Guerra indi­

cated that the negotiations for future funding began early and that this will allow both parties ample time to reach agreement on the terms for future financial assistance.

Among the issues that were being ironed out were the terms of the next aid package, a pro­posal fropi the US side that fed­eral funding for capital improve­ment projects be matched by the CNMI, as well as whether the negotiated 702 financial grants would be the last for .the Com­monwealth.

The current financial agree­ment will run until September,

1992.US hinted that because the

economy of the CNMI has con­tinued to grow, future financial assistance from the US govern­ment may not be needed after the next package.

Manglona resented this and came up with a proposal that a team of technical professional experts be put up by both sides to make an unbiased determination of the true state of the CNMI economy.

“We never could tell what would happen in the years ahead, and we could not compromise on that uncertainty,” Manglona was quoted as having told Guerra.

On the matching of funding for the CIPs, the lieutenant gov­ernor suggested a “progressive percentage” sharing arrangement such that the CNMI’s matching of US funding for construction be on a staggered, increasing basis.

What Manglona suggested was in the first three years, one- third of the amount given will be matched by the CNMI; in the next three years up to six years, about one half; and in the re­maining four years, two-thirds.

The US side, which earlier informally suggested something like 5228 million, appeared on the way to compromise halfway with a 5246 million ten-year package, a departure from the CNMI ’ s earlier position of S268 million.

As per a signed agreement

between Manglona and Guerra in Honolulu, the assistant secre­tary will work on a counter-pro­posal which will incorporate the latest discussions which is to be forwarded to the CNMI in ap­proximately two weeks after the said talks.

But more than a month has passed and still no counter pro­posal was received prompting Manglona to write a letter to Guerra.

Guerra on the other hand said that since returning to Wash­ington, issues have arisen which has reportedly forced the assis­tant secretary to delay her counter-proposal, and suspend further discussions.

According to Guerra, new in­structions regarding the US president’s desire to reduce federal spending in fiscal year 1993 and the outyears surfaced, and this necessitated more spe­cific policy guidelines from the White House as to any impact this may have on the ongoing discussions regarding multi-year assistance to the Common­wealth.

Another issue that may have caused delay is the recent re­lease of a legal opinion from the Congressional Researc h S ervice regarding the status of Covenant funding for the CNMI after the current package period expires.

“The Office of Management and Budgetand the Department’s Solicitor are reviewing this document in light of the afore­mentioned budget decisions for

1993 and the outyears,” Guerra said in an October 3 letter to Manglona.

Guerra, however, assured that she is pressing for a speedy reso­lution of the two issues, express­ing the hope that she will be able to sit down and discuss these issues in more detail when she visits Saipan in early November for the Pacific Basin Develop­ment Council meeting.

But Manglona saw the need for the written proposal of the US side prior to Guerra’s arrival to enable him to come up with a concensus with other members of the negotiating CNMI panel.

“If we wait until you are present on the island, I feel that it would be more difficult for me to have full discussions with you,” Manglona told Guerra.

In an October letter to Guerra,

Manglona appeared “disturbed” at the apparent standstill in the 702 discussions.

According to him, since the CNMI submitted its early proposals, the Common­wealth negotiators continue to modify its stand to dem­onstrate a genuine desire to compromise with the origi­nal position.

“The Commonwealth has been negotiating in good faith with you as the special representative of the presi­dent since the spring of this year. The concessions and adjustments we made in our counter-proposals are evi­dence of our good faith in attempting to secure a signed agreement at the earliest possible time,” his letter read.

Lf. Gov. Benjamin Manglona met with recently appointed US permanent Representative to the 902 talks Lou Gallego during his recent trip to the Capitol.

Customs Chief Lt. Col. Pete P. Reyes said yesterday the Fri­day ruling issued'by Superior Court J udge Marty W .K. Taylor on the case of alleged drug smuggler Isidro R. Lizamasclsa “dangerous precedent” as it welcomes a wide range of illegal goods and undesirables to enter CNMI ports.

“With all due respect to the judge, I still believe he erred in his decision,” Reyes said.

Reyes expressed shock over Taylor’s judgement stating that CNMI customs agents do not have the authority to conduct warrantless border searches,

Taylor’s ruling also stipulates

that since the statute creating the Customs Division was found to be void, the only existing au­thority granting Customs per­sonnel to conduct searches has been effectively nullified.

Reyes is also in the impres­sion that government prosecu­tors handling the case were not given the appropriate time to prepare a brief to support their case.

“The judge gave them a 4 p.m. Friday deadline to submit their briefs but, before that time had lapsed, he had already entered his judgement in favor of Lizama,” Reyes said.

Reyes is disturbed with the turn of events in the case which he termed, as “quite unusual.”

“It seems to me the AG was not given ample consideration to address their case effectively,” Reyes said.

As someone who has been connected with the Customs Di­vision since its inception and as a strong advocate of a drug-free Commonwealth, Reyes is ex­ploring every avenue to help government prosecutors find means to reverse the Taylor de­cision.

Reyes is conferring with As­sistant Attorney General Julie Van Dyne to have the ruling ap­pealed to the Supreme Court.

He said there are strong indi­cations that a request may also be filed in the court asking it to reconsider Taylor’s judgemenL

“I admit that our laws and regulations may be weak but, despite all of that, Judge Taylor should have taken into consid­eration previous cases where the Customs authority was upheld,” Reyes said.

One contention cited in Taylor’s decision was that the Customs Division fails to exist as it was created by a void regu­lation.

To this, Reyes contends that the organizational statute which creates the Customs Division as a branch of the Department of Finance was clear enough in its language that the Customs ex-

isted to safeguard the entry of undesirables through CNMI ports.

While government attor­neys are still planning their next course of action, Reyes is optimistic that the high tri­bunal will overturn the Tay­lor decision.

Lizama was arrested on June 15, 1991 at the Saipan International Airport after Customs officials found several grams of crystal methamphetamine hidden within the hollows of two porcelain statutes imported from the Philippines.

The purpose of the amend­ment was to limit the high turn-over rate of its mem­bers, a situation evident during the last several

months.Two reasons were cited as

the cause for the high-turn- over rate include the quasi­political structure of the group where members have to run in an ordinary elec­tions to be retained for office and the limited number of individuals who are in­terested and technically ca­pable of serving the Zoning Board.

The measure will also re­quire the Board two out of seven members to be an of­ficer and employee of the CNMI.

The board’s composition will consist of a seven member core group who will

be confirmed by Gov. Guerrero.

Each of the Board’s mem­bers shall be of Northern Marianas descent or be a United States citizen who has been domiciled on Saipan for the last five years prior to their selection.

Board members will as­sume a two-year term which will commence upon the confirmation of the appoint­ment of the appropriate leg­islative delegation and may stay in office after a maxi­mum of three two year terms.

A replacement to a board member who has either resigned or died while in office, will be appointed by the Governor.

M a n g lo n a u rg e s “ g o o d f a it h ” in 7 0 2 t a lk sby Rafael H. Arroyo

Lieutenant Governor Ben­jamin T. Manglona yesterday aired his disappointment at the rate negotiations for a new multi­year financial aid package are going on, urging his US counter­part in the talks to continue good faith negotiations in the so-called 702 talks.

In a news conference held at his office, the lieutenant gover­nor disclosed information on a letter to Territorial and Interna­tional Affairs Assistant Secre­tary Stella Guerra of the US Department of the Interior, wherein he questioned Guerra’s inability to send the US panel’s counter-proposals to the CNMI ’ s position aired during the most recent the most recent round of discussion in Honolulu about a

, month ago.During that meet, Guerra indi­

cated that the negotiations for future funding began early and that this will allow both parties ample time to reach agreement on the terms for future financial assistance.

Among the issues that were being ironed out were the terms of the next aid package, a pro­posal fropi the US side that fed­eral funding for capita] improve­ment projects be matched by the CNMI, as well as whether the negotiated 702 financial grants would be the last for .the Com­monwealth.

The current financial agree­ment will run until September,

1992.US hinted that because the

economy of the CNMI has con­tinued to grow, future financial assistance from the US govern­ment may not be needed after the next package.

Manglona resented this and came up with a proposal that a team of technical professional experts be put up by both sides to make an unbiased determination of the true state of the CNMI economy.

“We never could tell what would happen in the years ahead, and we could not compromise on that uncertainty,” Manglona was quoted as having told Guerra.

On the matching of funding for the CIPs, the lieutenant gov­ernor suggested a “progressive percentage” sharing arrangement such that the CNMI’s matching of US funding for construction be on a staggered, increasing basis.

What Manglona suggested was in the first three years, one- third of the amount given will be matched by the CNMI; in the next three years up to six years, about one half; and in the re­maining four years, two-thirds.

The US side, which earlier informally suggested something like S228 million, appeared on the way to compromise halfway with a S246 million ten-year package, a departure from the CNMI ’ s earlier position of S268 million.

As per a signed agreement

between Manglona and Guerra in Honolulu, the assistant secre­tary will work on a counter-pro­posal which will incorporate the latest discussions which is to be forwarded to the CNMI in ap­proximately two weeks after the said talks.

But more than a month has passed and still no counter pro­posal was received prompting Manglona to write a letter to Guerra.

Guerra on the other hand said that since returning to Wash­ington, issues have arisen which has reportedly forced the assis­tant secretary to delay her counter-proposal, and suspend further discussions.

According to Guerra, new in­structions regarding the US president’s desire to reduce federal spending in fiscal year 1993 and the outyears surfaced, and this necessitated more spe­cific policy guidelines from the White House as to any impact this may have on the ongoing discussions regarding multi-year assistance to the Common­wealth.

Another issue that may have caused delay is the recent re­lease of a legal opinion from the Congressional Research Service regarding the status of Covenant funding for the CNMI after the current package period expires.

“The Office of Management and B udgct and the Department’s Solicitor are reviewing this document in light of the afore­mentioned budget decisions for

1993 and the outyears,” Guerra said in an October 3 letter to Manglona.

Guerra, however, assured that she is pressing for a speedy reso­lution of the two issues, express­ing the hope that she will be able to sit down and discuss these issues in more detail when she visits Saipan in early November for the Pacific Basin Develop­ment Council meeting.

But Manglona saw the need for the written proposal of the US side prior to Guerra’s arrival to enable him to come up with a concensus with other members of the negotiating CNMI panel.

“If we wait until you are present on the island, I feel that it would be more difficult for me to have full discussions with you,” Manglona told Guerra.

In an October letter to Guerra,

Manglona appeared “disturbed” at the apparent standstill in the 702 discussions.

According to him, since the CNMI submitted its early proposals, the Common­wealth negotiators continue to modify its stand to dem­onstrate a genuine desire to compromise with the origi­nal position.

“The Commonwealth has been negotiating in good faith with you as the special representative of the presi­dent since the spring of this year. The concessions and adjustments we made in our counter-proposals are evi­dence of our good faith in attempting to secure a signed agreement at the earliest possible time,” his letter read.

Lt. Gov. Benjamin Manglona met with recently appointed US permanent Representative to the 902 talks Lou Gallego during his recent trip to the Capitol.

C ou rt d is m is s e s L iza m a case fo r i l le g a l s e a r thby Terl M. Flores

Customs Chief Lt. Col. Pete P. Reyes said yesterday the Fri­day ruling issued'by Superior Court Judge Marty W.K. Taylor on the case of alleged drug sm uggler Isidro R. Lizama sets a “dangerous precedent” as it welcomes a wide range of illegal goods and undesirables to enter CNMI ports.

“With all due respect to the judge, I still believe he erred in his decision,” Reyes said.

Reyes expressed shock over Taylor’s judgement stating that CNMI customs agents do not have the authority to conduct warrantless border searches.

Taylor’s ruling also stipulates

that since the statute creating the Customs Division was found to be void, the only existing au­thority granting Customs per­sonnel to conduct searches has been effectively nullified.

Reyes is also in the impres­sion that government prosecu­tors handling the case were not given the appropriate time to prepare a brief to support their case.

“The judge gave them a 4 p.m. Friday deadline to submit their briefs but, before that time had lapsed, he had already entered his judgement in favor of Lizama,” Reyes said.

Reyes is disturbed with the turn of events in the case which he termed, as “quite unusual.”

“It seems to me the AG was not given ample consideration to address their case effectively,” Reyes said.

As someone who has been connected with the Customs Di­vision since its inception and as a strong advocate of a drug-free Commonwealth, Reyes is ex­ploring every avenue to help government prosecutors find means to reverse the Taylor de­cision.

Reyes is conferring with As­sistant Attorney General Julie Van Dyne to have the ruling ap­pealed to the Supreme Court.

He said there are strong indi­cations that a request may also be filed in the court asking it to reconsider Taylor’s judgement.

“I admit that our laws and regulations may be weak but, despite all of that, Judge Taylor should have taken into consid­eration previous cases where the Customs authority was upheld,” Reyes said.

One contention cited in Taylor’s decision was that the Customs Division fails to exist as it was created by a void regu­lation.

To this, Reyes contends that the organizational statute which creates the Customs Division as a branch of the Department of Finance was clear enough in its language that the Customs ex-

isted to safeguard the entry of undesirables through CNMI ports.

While government attor­neys are still planning their next course of action, Reyes is optimistic that the high tri­bunal will overturn the Tay­lor decision.

Lizama was arrested on June 15, 1991 at the Saipan International Airport after Customs officials found several grams of crystal methamphetamine hidden within the hollows of two porcelain statutes imported from the Philippines.

CNMI’s Resident Represen­tative to Washington Juan N. Babauta is on island for a two week stay within which he would meet the various CNMI officials headed by the governor, the lieutenant governor, and others, on issues ranging from the 902 consultations to the ar­rangement of purchaseplans for World War II artifacts from a noted collector.

Babauta flew onto Saipan Sunday and began meeting yes­terday with Governor Lorenzo I. DL. Guerrero and Lt Gover­nor Benjamin T. Manglonaona variety of issues.

According to Babauta among the matters discussed were the current developments in the 902 negotiations wherein he acts as co-chairman; Tuna resources and the CNMI participation in international negotiations; the Department of Defense Instal­lation Restoration Program; the University of the Virgin Islands proposed consortium; the American Memorial Park, CNMI/Department of the Inte­rior proposed marine Minerals joint planning and review; the CNMI’s use of radio frequen­cies assigned to Trust Territo­ries of the Pacific Islands/De­partment of the Interior; the purchase of WWII artifacts; and the proposed participation of the CNMI Veterans’ Office in a briefing at Washington.______

NO. 3

According to the Washington Representative, he is to update Governor Guerrero on certain matters that require his imme­diate knowledge.

Also, he would meet Wednesday till Friday with the other members of the governor’s special representatives to the 902 consultation, aside from meeting also with the outgoing US representative Timothy Glidden on the 31st of October.

His meeting with the Historic Preservation Office and the Coastal Resources Management on the arrangements regarding the proposed purchase of WWII artifacts, which was originally scheduled for October 28, was held a yesterday.

According to Babauta, the source of funding for the pur­chase has already been found in CRM, and that negotiations with collector/WWII veteran Robert Benny, who has in his posses­sion various wartime memora­bilia of considerable historical importance.

Benny has in his collection somewhere in New York pic­tures taken in Saipan during the war, 80 mm. films depicting the war, equipments like Japanese swords, uniforms, knives, and other soldier paraphernalia.

“We are arranging to purchase these items for our museum that we are currently planning to construct along with other plans for the American Memorial Park,” Babauta said in an inter­

view at his office.He indicated that the plan,

which has been on the drawing board for quite some time now, is being coordinated by the HPO, the CRM, and his office, which will handle the negotiation the mainland.

He likewise said that Michael Fleming and Scott Russell, both from the HPO, will be planing to New York in the near future to examine for the last time Benny’s artifacts before the group makes a final decision.

“Our role in the purchase is basically as a facilitator,” the Washington representative said.

Sometime next week, Babauta will also, meet with the Veter­ans’ Affairs led by William Guerrero to identify benefits for the CNMI veterans.

According to Babauta, his of­fice has coordinated with the assistant secretary for Veterans’ Affairs for a visit by some membersof the Commonwealth Veterans’ Affairs office to Washington to get briefed on programs of the Veterans’ Ad­ministration on November 7, 1991.

Babauta would then meet with the commissioner of Education, William S. Torres (October29), and attend the opening sessions of the Pacific Basin Develop­ment Council conference on November 3.

Funding Ion airport tower gains US conferees' nod

by Rafael H. Arroyo

Resident Washington Repre­sentative Juan N. Babauta yes­terday announced that federal funding for the control tower at the Saipan International Airport is almost sure to be passed in the US Congress as the conference committee tackling the 1992 appropriations for the Interior Departmentapproved$3 million for the said project.

A faxed message received by Babauta yesterday from the US House Interior Subcommittee revealed that the bill that sets aside appropriations for the 1992 Interior Department budget is expected to be passed by Con­gress. BUt Babauta revealed that the amount for the control tower is short by $500,000 of what was originally asked for by the CNMI government.

“I just received word from> Washington that funding for the tower has been approved by the conferees, but that the $3.5 mil­lion which the Senate supported was trimmed down to $3 mil­lion,” Babauta explained.

“We pushed so hard for the approval of the Senate version of the appropriations bill—the full amount of the $3.5 million. We have lobbied Senate staffers and impressed upon everyone that we need that amount,” he said.

The bill, which approves spending for the final year of Covenant funding for the CNMI under the current seven yearplan was earlier passed by the US House of Representatives al­though in a version differing form that passed by the Senate.

For the Commonwealth, the key difference between the House and the Senate versions of next year’s Interior appropriations is the amount that will be granted for the Saipan airport tower.

The House was said to have recommended $2.5 million, SI million less than what is needed to complete the project.-The Senate, through its Appropria­tions Committee, has recom­mended the full amount, which is $3.5 million.

Such differing versions of the bill prompted the creation of a conference committee between both houses of the US Congress.

Bills which have been ap­proved in different versions are sent to conference committees composed of members from the two chambers.

“Now that the conference committee has already came out with that decision, then it’s almost sure that we could have the funding for the tower,” he said.

p a s s e dincluded in the list of highly ad­dictive drugs which also include heroin and cocaine.

Violators will be penalized a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment, depending on the quantity of substance and the number of offenses one has been cited for.

A mandatory five year jail sentence without parole will be meted to those convicted of il­legal possession of controlled substance and possession of firearm. The strict penalty im­posed by the legislators for of­fenders of this provision is aimed at protecting the officers at risk whose firearms are, more often than not, of weaker caliber than those in the underworld.

The Customs Division’s ju­risdiction and function was al­ready broadened by the proposed statute. In the bill Customs agents will be allowed to carry firearms and ammunition to protect themselves from a possible harm that might befall them due to the riskiness of their job.

Customs jurisdiction was also broadened and the scope wherein which they can conduct their searches was also addressed in the said statute. Customs and other law-enforcement officers will also be given overtime pay to address the manpower short­age being experienced by the Customs and the Department of Public Safety.

increasing drug problem in the Commonwealth by imposing stiff penalties for offenders and enhancing the ability of law en­forcement officers in enforcing statutes was passed by the House of Representatives on its first and final reading.

“My records stand for itself and should reflect on my ability to perform in the Senate. My opponent is wherein the burden of suitability to represent you lies. Ultimately, the people should judge me on my capa­bility, previous performanceand

the wit to continue to represent them in the most difficult of times,” he said in his letter.

He noted that the other issues the Chamber may wish to ex­plore and get answers of are all mentioned in his political ad­vertisements and nightly cam­paign speeches. “Need I venture endlessly into something more?” he was quoted as saying.

New Mexico businessman Gallegos was connected with the Interior Department as the former Assistant Secretary of the Interior for Policy, Management and Bud­get .

“Wedonothaveanychoice.The best thing to do is to welcome him (Gallegos) and assure him that we

will work with him hand in hand,” Manglona said when asked what his reaction to Gallegos appoint­ment was.

Gallegos was named after the Northern Marianas delegation to the talks continually sought the US to name its permanent man to the talks.

The CNMI wanted the US to name a representative who had di­rect contact with US President George Bush.

The Commonwealth negotiators hadbeen pressing for someone who, they believe must have the US President’s full confidence and not an Interior employee whose role will be limited. Manglona even nominated RredW.Zeder.to fill the position.

The details of this project are available from the CUC Sewer Division. This project will include operation and maintenance training and full documentation (operations manuals, full plans and specifi­cations, and as-built drawings.)

Selection will be made on the basis of previous experience with similar facilities, qualifications of staff members, completeness, quality, and approach of the proposal, total cost, and time to completion.

Attention is called to the labor S tandard Provisions for Wage Rate Determination of the CNMI Classification and Salary Structure Plans and that payment on not less than the minimum salaries and wages as set forth in the Specifications must be paid on this project.

that. Unfortunately, I think one is enough,” he reiterated.

Reyes’ statement to decline was taken with disappointment by Demapan, who lamented that the voting public will not be given the opportunity to know more about their senatorial candidates and their stances on key issues facing them.

“I know that the voters on Saipan are anxiously looking

forward to such an event at the eve of the election day. But, nev­ertheless, I respect Rep. Reyes’ decision not to confront me in a debate prior to the November 2 election,” Demapan said in a let­ter to Dino M. Jones.

He then asked the Chamber to find out and report to the voting public, Reyes’ reasons or causes for rejecting the Chamber’s invi­tation.

“I believe that the voters de­serve to know more about their candidates and their positions on major public policy issues affecting our people,” Demapan said.

He made mention of issues with respect to open and fair dealings in government, the use of and application of public re­sources, including public lands, and the like.

150 Japanese jet skiers compete in Yamaha jamboreeby Rafael H. Arroyo

The annual Yamaha Marine Jet Jamboree may have found itself a regular venue on the waters of Saipan after the organizers of the event found Saipan’s clear seas, tropical climate perfect for the sport

This was learned from Masuhiro Kamimura of Yamaha Motor Company Ltd. Japan, or­ganizers of the yearly event now on its third year.

The 1991 version of the jam­boree was held for the first time on Saipan at the Daiichi Hotel beachfront and was participated in by some 150 jet ski enthusiasts who flew in from Japan for the three day meet starting last Oc­tober 18.

According to Kamimura, Saipan offered an excellent venue for marine watersports, aside from the various sightseeing points that is a definite come-on for Japanese tourists.

“Saipan has a very warm cli­mate, and its waters are wide and

clear. Our hosts, Joeten Motors Company, as well as the CNMI government were also very coop­erative, making sure that every­thing is alright,” Kamimura said.

Joeten Motors is the exclusive Distributors of Yamaha products in the CNMI for the Yamaha Motor Company Ltd. Japan.

The Japanese firm reportedly approached Joeten months ago to coordinate the 1991 marine jet jamboree which was held for the last two years in Coco Islands in Guam.

Joeten Motors General Man­ager Edward B. Palacios said that after they were approached, they invited several government agencies that were seen to have something to do with the approv­ing process here.

A committee was formed for the event with representatives from the Coastal Resources ManagementOffice, the Marianas Visitors Bureau, Commonwealth Health Center, Saipan Trolling Company, Paradise Marine, and Joeten.

“This is a good opportunity for us in that this would mean expo­sure and publicity for our exclu­sive line of Yamaha marine prod­ucts,” says Palacios. “If this will be a yearly event here, so much the better.”

MVB Managing Director BennetSeman was equally happy over the holding of the jamboree on Saipan, saying that it would be good for the visitor industry.

“We have been coordinating with Joeten to have them come here for the annual meet We sure hope that their coming over here and their havingthejamboreehere on Saipan yearly would not only be a possibility but a reality,” Seman said.

S ome fifty people per day com­peted in time trials with the three participants traversing the desig­nated tracks in the least time emerging the winners for the day.
