Questions on the Enchong Dee at UAAP Magazine Controversy


24 months ago, it was the Seventy-Fifth Season of the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP), hosted by National University (NU) in the school year 2012 up to 2013.

That was for Enchong Dee is a member of De La Salle University Green & Lady Tankers from UAAP Season 70 (2007), UAAP Season 71(2008) and UAAP Season 72 (2009) and he was the architect of three straight most valuable player (MVP) titles and seven gold medals in swimming in 2007, 2008 and 2009, it was originally supposed for the UAAP Magazine's third issue in 2012 just in time before for the 75th UAAP Swimming Championship at Trace College Aquatic Sports Complex in Los Baños, Laguna from September 27 to 30, 2012 after one-time appearance in the first issue of UAAP Magazine in 2010 and one-season absence of his participation as a swimmer in Season 73 (hosted by De La Salle University in 2010) and 100 Years of Lasallian Presence in the Philippines on June 16, 2011 and also he appeared in Bench "Universe": Denim and Underwear Fashion Show for the 25th Anniversary of Bench/ lifestyle + clothing at Mall of Asia Arena on September 13 and 14, 2012. It's a second real published regular feature for the Magazine itself with a themed "Carnival King", pictorial with clothes including DLSU Centennial Jacket, and white and green tee byNike, belt and pants by Bench/ lifestyle + clothing and shoes by DC Shoes, plus a location for the shoot at MASA (Makati Aqua Sports Arena) Swimming Pool, interview and article written by Julian Mauricio and photographs came from Friendster and Multiply.com accounts wayback 2007 to 2012. The project was "Enchong Dee at UAAP Magazine: Into the Blue", based on Into the Blue (2005 film) with a snorkeling scenes has been delayed for 48 months due to numerous hectic schedules undertaken since September 24, 2012 to present because of his personal busy schedule for the taping of hisAbs-Cbn's primetime television drama series "Ina, Kapatid, Anak" in which starring Kim Chiu, Xian Lim and Maja salvador replacing the timeslot ofLorenzo's Time starring Zaijan Jaranilla on Primetime Bida. During the last day of September 2012, it was decided the UAAP Magazine editorial staff to cancel his project as a regular feature and instead was Garage Magazine of magazine publisher Sesame Seeds Creatives, Inc. a subsidiary of the newspaper publishing company MANILA BULLETIN Publishing Corporation by October 1 of this year as cover story feature with the many faces of this style savant as he conquered the fashion capital of Italy wearing Holiday 2012 menswear by esteemed Philippine fashion designers.

During the last day of September 2012, it was decided the UAAP Magazine editorial staff to drop UAAP Magazine's third issue 2012 as a regular feature citing over personal problems as a athlete and instead was Garage Magazine of Sesame Seeds Creatives, Inc. a subsidiary of Manila Bulletin Publishing Corporation by October of this year as cover story feature with the many faces of this style savant as he conquered the fashion capital of Italy wearing Holiday 2012 menswear by esteemed Philippine fashion designers. However, he did not participate because of schedule conflict in March 2010, and he cannot go to the 73rd UAAP Swimming Championship on September 23, 2010. He misses being part of the UAAP anymore, especially he is no longer actively training. 

Dee is now he is considered the busiest Kapamilya actor and recently as a singer. His latest music album, "Enchong Dee" features the newest single "Chinito Problems".

It is expected to feature again in the Magazine just in time for the 5th anniversary of his graduation in De La Salle University this June 20, 2014 for his pictorial and interview and article written by Toff de Venecia of Chalk Magazine, and it released in time for the 77th UAAP Swimming Competition on October 2, 2014. (Editor-in-Chief Jinno Rufino's Note: Due to the 2-day 30th Barrio Fiesta in London for the 20th Anniversary Celebration of The Filipino Channel (TFC), Enchong Dee was unable to shoot for the magazine's regular feature and reschedule pictorial to third week of October 2014, due to the approval of UAAP Magazine Editorial Board.) Once will be procured separately and the case is resolved. 

The reason: why is Enchong Dee is longer anymore a amateur competitive elite swimmer, member of the Philippine national swimming team, and participant of the UAAP Swimming Championship for 2 seasons (UAAP Season 73-2010 and UAAP Season 75-2012) and he is not retired as a athlete? There is no retirement plans for the celebrity as a sports athlete anymore? Napansin kung wala na si Enchong Dee sa UAAP. any update guys kung saan na siya ngayon? At ito ang dahilan kung ba't niya muntik na kinansela ang kanyang pictorial sa UAAP Magazine dalawang taon at tatlong buwan nakalipas?

Napansin kung wala na si Enchong Dee sa UAAP. any update guys kung saan na siya? At ito ang dahilan kung ba't niya kinansela ang kanyang pictorial sa UAAP Magazine dalawang taon at tatlong buwan nakalipas? Ask the ABS-CBN reporter Maan Macapagal or UAAP Magazine editorial consultant TJ Manotoc regarding the reason about the project? "We will look forward this project caused by his hectic schedule due to his future projects (including primetime drama series and movies) and it will push through beyond the year 2017, just in time for UAAP Season 80."

The problems resolved about Dee's incomplete playing year for the Green Tankers in Season 75 in the same year minus former coach Professor Rene "Guy" Concepcion and former swimming team captain Mike Advincula to graduation, because he wants to participate again this year but he defers training schedule. He decision to have a 60-day temporary restraining order from the Quezon City Regional Trial Court, and he was able to compete again this 2012 anymore. The 23-year-old actor is seeking participating in future local and international swimming competitions was because of hectic schedule as a actor.

Soon, the compilations of photographs for the UAAP Swimming Championship at TRACE College Aquatic Sports Complex in Los Baños, Laguna in 2007 to 2009 came from various Multiply.com users wayback 2007 up to 2009, soon to be released in the Magazine's 5th issue. But, after the end of first semester sports of UAAP last October 12, 2012, a day after the UAAP Men's Basketball Finals Game 2, the decision of the UAAP Magazine Staff that his regular feature will stalled or put on hold due to his busy schedules as an television actor it will have a long-delay for 36 months starting from September 24, 2012 to September 2015.

The release date for the Magazine is on November 15, 2014.

PNoy calls for PHL power sector overhaul October 24, 2014 12:49pm More from: http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/385008/economy/business/pnoy-calls-for-phl-power-sector-overhaul

As the Philippines under his administration is facing a power reserves deficit next year, President Benigno Aquino III is calling for changes in the Philippine power sector, which he described as prone to supply shortages.
 
In a speech before business leaders, Aquino said the business model of the Philippine power industry needs to be overhauled.
 
He admitted that the power sector's current setup is "not an ideal situation" and "does not engender more investments."
 
"Even before groundbreaking, plants have typically sold all of their outputs. I don't know of any other industry which has already sold its goods that have yet to be produced in a facility that has yet to be constructed," the President said at the closing ceremony of the Philippine Business Conference and Expo on Friday.
 
Energy officials earlier admitted a possible shortage in power reserves next summer. 
 
Aquino has asked Congress to give him emergency powers to contract additional generating capacity to address the projected power deficit.
 
However, a joint draft resolution by the House of Representatives is giving the President mere authority to tap privately-owned generator sets as a way of releasing additional capacity for the Luzon grid next year. 
 
In the same speech, Aquino encouraged business leaders to invest more in the power sector even without long-term power supply contracts.
 
"There are around three major entities in power today putting their money where their mouth is. They are investing in the sector even without long-term power supply agreements or power supply contracts," the President said.
 
"We hope more investors will follow suit and we will seek ways and means to encourage more to follow this track," he added. – Andreo C. Calonzo/VS, GMA News

Adios: Pope Francis leaves Philippines

Pope Francis has left the Philippines for Rome on Monday after a five-day state and apostolic visit, his first to Asia’s biggest Catholic nation.
He left at around 10:12 a.m. via Philippine Airlines (PAL) Flight PR 8010—PAL’s inaugural direct flight to Rome—at Villamor Air Base in Pasay City.
Pope Francis was sent off by President Benigno Aquino III, Catholic bishops and cabinet officials.
About 400 street children now under the care of foundations also performed as part of the send-off ceremony. They were yelling in unison “Pope Francis we love you”.
The Pontiff’s visit to the Philippines was the second leg of his weeklong Asian tour.
He drew what Filipino officials say was a record crowd of 6 million despite a stormy weather in a historic Manila park where he celebrated his final Mass.
The supposed ‘centerpiece’ of his visit in the Philippines was his trip to Leyte to comfort the survivors of Supertyphoon “Yolanda” (international name:Haiyan), but it was cut short by a few hours due to Tropical Storm Amang (international name: Mekkhala).
Yolanda was the strongest typhoon to hit the world in recent times which left about 6,000 killed in 2013.
On Sunday, Pope Francis said Mass at Quirino Grandstand in Manila, which drew some 6 million people, the biggest gathering for a papal event. This has surpassed Pope John Paul II’s crowd of an estimated 5 million in 1995.
Despite the nonstop rains caused by Amang, pilgrims stayed put in Luneta to hear the culminating Mass and get a glimpse of the Pope. The crowd managed to keep themselves dry with ponchos and umbrellas.
The Pope dedicated his visit to the poor, the youth and families.
Thousands lined up the streets to get a glimpse of the Pope every time he had a scheduled activity.
The 78-year-old pontiff’s visit prompted the government to declare a three-day holiday.
His visit is said to be the biggest security operation in Philippine history with some 50,000 policemen and soldiers deployed. The visits of Pope of Paul VI in 1970 and Pope, and now Saint, John Paul II were marred by assassination attempts. With a report from Associated Press
