Road Accidents

Sa loob lang ng 1 buwan (Pebrero 2026), 16 and naitalang mga aksidente sa kalsada. Sa labing anim na naitala, APAT (4) na tao ang namatay o 25% fatality rate. Sa 16 na naaksident, 15 and nadala sa hospital, samantalang mayroong isa na bagamat sugatan ay mas pinili pa ang umalis kaysa madala sa hospital dahil sa takot na makulong o ma impound ang walang rehistro na motorbike. Ang datos na ito ay naka-aalarma. Sa mga motorista, pina pa alala po namin ang ibayong pag iingat. Huwag magmamaneho kung naka inom ng alak. Laging isipin na mayroong naghihintay na pamilya ang bawat isa sa atin. Kumuha ng proper training sa pagmamaneho at kumuha ng Driver's License bago mag maneho. Ugaling maging Defensive Driver, meron tayong kasabihan na kung may naaksidente - "KUNG DILI HUBOG, HAMBOG".

Gabriel Santisima stuns Japanese WBO champion in Tokyo

CEBU CITY, Philippines — Gabriel Santisima walked into Korakuen Hall as the underdog. Ten rounds later, he walked out of the boxing arena with a title and the Japanese boxing crowd sitting in stunned silence. On Saturday night, February 7, the 21-year-old Cebu-based Aroroy, Masbate native pulled off a career-defining upset. He outworked and outthought the highly rated Subaru Murata for a unanimous-decision victory to capture the World Boxing Organization (WBO) Asia Pacific super bantamweight title. When the scores were read, the normally raucous Tokyo venue fell eerily quiet. Judges Edward Ligas of Cebu and Mekin Sumon both had it 96-93, while Takeru Okinawa scored it wider at 97-92. The adjudicators all favored Santisima of the Cebu-based ZIP Sanman Boxing Gym where WBC world minimumweight champion Melvin Jerusalem belongs. From the opening bell, it was clear Santisima was not there to be another statistic to Murata’s unbeaten record.
