XII held its 61st
Regular
Meeting on 21 March 2018 at

The meeting was conducted

No. 944, Series of 2017 or the
Guidelines for Virtual Currency
(VC) Exchanges. The
presentation advocated for the
entry of virtual currency (VC),
like Bitcoin, in the country
which threatens BSP’s policy
goal on consumer protection
and financial stability. VC is a
digital unit of exchange which
is not issued or guaranteed
by BSP. BSP has issued a
warning advisory to caution the
public against unscrupulous
individuals or groups who
entice consumers to invest in

percent of the total PMDP
scholars nationwide. The
highest rate of availment was

nominations from Region XII.

City of Koronadal, South
Cotabato – During its 61st
Regular Meeting on March 21,
2018 in Koronadal City, the
Regional Development Council
(RDC) XII passed Resolution No.
12, Series of 2018, supporting
the Philippine Plan of Action for
Nutrition (PPAN), 2017-2022 to
help push and implement the
nutrition programs in the country.
The PPAN, 2017-2022 is the
country’s framework for nutrition
action. It aims to improve
the nutrition situation of the
country and contribute to the
achievement of AmBisyon Natin
2040, particularly in improving
human capital and reducing
its vulnerabilities brought
about by malnutrition. The
plan identified nutrition specific
programs to address immediate
causes of malnutrition, nutrition
sensitive programs to address
underlying causes, and the
enabling programs to propel
its implementation. Nutrition
sensitive programs are sectoral
programs that were tweaked
to contribute to the nutritional
outcomes like livelihood and
employment opportunities, among
others.
The Regional Social Development
Committee (RSDC) XII, during
its 1st
quarter meeting on March
7, 2018 in Koronadal City,
discussed and endorsed the
PPAN to RDC XII for support.
Ms. Annalita Mae V. Flores of
the National Nutrition Council
XII during her presentation of
the plan said, “if the current
administration declares war on
drugs, the nutrition thru PPAN
also declares war against
malnutrition. Malnutrition is also
one of our enemies, and winning
over the enemy starts with an
understanding the enemy.”
The three major forms of
malnutrition are: a) stunting where
people are too short for their age;
b) wasting where people are too
thin for their height; and c) obesity
where people are overweight.
Based on the survey conducted
in 2015 by the Food and
Nutrition Research Institute
of the Department of Science
and Technology (FNRI-DOST),
stunting among children below
5 years old in the Philippines,
was placed at 33.4%, wasting at
7.1%, and overweight at 3.9%.
However, obesity among 11-19
years old was high at 9.2%.
The said malnutrition status
is considered a public health
problem. Thus, focus of action
should be two fronts; first is
reducing stunting among infants,
and second is preventing the
increase of wasting and obesity
during the first year of life.

of Public Works and Highways
(DPWH) and not to the DILG,” he

RDC XII supports ... from page 5
Implementation of the nutrition
programs will help achieve
nutrition targets toward improving
the nutrition situation. Among
the targets by 2022, for under 5
children stunting shall be at 30%,
wasting at < 5%, and obesity at
1.4%, and among 11-19 years
old, the target for obesity is at
3.7%.
The PPAN, 2017-2022 also gives
importance to the first 1,000 days
of life because good nutrition
starts in the mother’s womb.
The Council likewise
acknowledged the importance
of hiring a permanent Nutrition
Action Officer to help direct
nutrition actions or plans towards
its goal.
The realization of the PPAN
programs will help contribute to
the attainment of long and healthy
life among Filipinos.

City of Koronadal, South
Cotabato – In line with the
National Economic and
Development Authority (NEDA)
45th
Anniversary, the NEDA
XII conducted a team building
activity to celebrate the event
at Fred Ann’s Food Haus,
Koronadal City on January 24,
2018.
The theme of the activity
is “Strengthening NEDA
XII’s Internal and Regional
Development Coordination.” It
aims to strengthen the bonds
of NRO XII staff by knowing
oneself better and improving
communication with each other
to work toward increasing
productivity.
On behalf of Regional Director
Arturo G. Valero, who was on
official travel to Davao City,
Assistant Regional Director
Noel E. Quiratman welcomed
the staff and shared that in
line with the new challenges
the office is facing, fostering
good relationship and
communication among the
staff could help facilitate easy
coordination to achieve office
goals and targets. This then
translates into efficient and
effective coordination with
various development partners.
Dr. Ryan Travis J. delos
Reyes from the Civil Service
Commission XII, facilitated
the team building sessions. A
number of structured learning
exercises (SLEs) were also
facilitated by selected NEDA
XII employees, including
the conduct of cultural
development activity.
The NEDA XII staff also
took pleasure in dancing
and singing the “Tunog ng
Progreso.” The audio-visual
presentation was developed
to highlight the NEDA’s 45th
anniversary, to promote the
AmBisyon Natin 2040, and the
Philippine Development Plan,
2017-2022.
ARD Quiratman expressed
the appreciation of the NRO
XII staff on the outcome of the
activity. He cited that team
building may involve playing
silly games and fun activities
but it takes time and resources
to motivate the group to work
as a team. In the end, it is
worthwhile to connect and
make friends with people we
have worked with and will be
working with in the coming
years. Highly motivated staff
can help build workmates to
work harmoniously who would
together achieve the AmBisyon
Natin 2040!
