   Gov. Hermogenes Ebdane Jr. inspects the newly-arrived ultrasound machine at the Zambales provincial hospital. The equipment, along with new CT-scan and X-ray machines, will be inaugurated on January 30. IBA, Zambales — Residents of Zambales would no longer need to travel to Manila or other provinces just to avail of CT-scan, X-ray or ultrasound imaging now that they can avail of such services at the provincial hospital here. Gov. Hermogenes Ebdane Jr. said some P50-million worth of medical equipment were delivered at the President Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Hospital here on Tuesday, thus enabling the provincial government to offer services at lower costs and at a place more convenient to local patients. The equipment, which include a computed tomography (CT) scan machine, an ultrasound imager, and an X-ray system, were delivered by the Ebdane administration barely two months after it turned over four new ambulances to government hospitals in Zambales. “The machines we’ve been waiting for are now here,” Ebdane said after inspecting the deliveries on Tuesday. “We will install and test the equipment in the next few days, inaugurate them at the end of this month, and after that they will be available for the use of needy patients in our province,” he added. |

A unique nature resort is coming out from a “deliberate” dream |
|
Friday, 20 January 2012 |
 Visitors are enticed to view the scenic Central Luzon Mountains from a mini boardwalk located in one end of the swimming pool. This is how environmental planner Nestor David describes his experience in developing a nature resort out of a property in Barangay Tala in Orani Bataan which, according to BCDA Chairman Felicito C. Payumo, was once infected by Communists’ New People’s Army.
THE GREEN PLANNER 
A graduate of the University of the Philippines, David had earlier been involved in the development of the now well known El Nido’s Lagen Island Resort where he claims a lot of environmental sensitivity was introduced. In fact, the resort has been voted one of the world’s top 15 Green Hotels and Resorts by Travelers’ Digest. Two and a half years ago, and after almost 40 years of experience, David said he encouraged his partners in Tala Properties  Incorporated to start developing the Sinagtala Resort. Even at the start, David said the place, at 500 meters above sea level, enjoys the advantage of a vantage view “because you will see both the high points and the ravine forests” in one place.
Aside from David and Payumo, there are 11 other incorporators in the corporation which include Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert Del Rosario, former GSIS head Federico Pascual, and former Finance Secretary Lito Camacho. |
