Waste water from the hospital is allegely poisoning the Calaba River.
The maintenance Engineer denies such accusation. I wonder if he agrees to swim at the Abra River and see what happens? Would you?

TO THE ENGINEERS OF THE ABRA PROVINCIAL HOSPITAL:…
SIRS, the WASTE MANAGEMENT of the NEW PROVINCIAL HOSPITAL is very important to the natural
integrity of the ABRA RIVER from CALABA RIVER section. Will you please share with us millions of ABRENIANS
listening via the ABRENIAN WEBSITE how you sirs ENGINEERS have created a ‘STATE of THE ARTS’ ….step-
-by- step, in easy to understand format, for we are not ENGINEERS to understand your language.
You see SIRS , we your KABABAYANS are concerned with the POLUTION of the ABRA RIVER from
WASTES of the HOSPITAL!!!
WILL YOU PLEASE FAVOR US WITH YOUR EXPERTISE ON HOW YOU CAN PREVENT POLLUTION
OF THE RIVER FROM HOSPITAL WASTE. ANXIOUSLY AWAITING FOR YOUR REPLY.
THANK YOU.
DR. TUASON.
I am with you Dr. Tuason. The government keep saying the filtration system is safe but no one presented a definitive study if this is so. Is killing the Abra river the price to pay for progress? or is it even a progress to speak of. Sir sysop is right these people who are saying the water is safe should get thrown into the river and drink the water and see what happens.
We are going backwards instead of moving forward,
“…ti pagtapuakan ti danum ket idiay mismo sango ti hospital ket no dayta nga danum ket adda angot ma, ket natural a nga dayta sango ti hospital ti umuna nga bumangsit saan ket nga idiay river…!”
Treated sewage should not stink at all if treatment was done properly. So where was the treatment plant located? If it was a ‘state-of-the art’ or even just simply an efficient-no-nonsense treatment plant, then why is there stink? The stink itself indicates grave health hazard in the hospital environs along with the danger of toxicity in the Abra River.
i have always been a critic of the putting up of the provincial hospital in its present site, the way the hospital was built and the price it took to build the hospital.
setting up a big hospital like the new APH should have been studied well and built by technical people meaning that a contractor with experience in hospital building should have been hired and not contractors with experience in building low quality concreting and building school buildings. There is such a thing as a Hospital Engineer or if none, a team of engineers should have been employed. A sanitary engineer is a musy because we have to deal with sewerage and other hospital waste.
in fairness to the hospital, it has indeed a water treatment facility. but the question here is the manner of disposing the waste water coming from the treatment facility. the treated water is directly pumped out into the roadside canal in front of the hospital. this should not be because the canal goes directly go to the Abra River which is just a few meters away. i am not a sanitary engineer but logic dictates that even when hospital water or sewerage is treated, it should not go directly to the canal but to an impounding area where this waste water will get aerated to remove the odor and oxygen to set in and then eventually disposed thru the rivers.
another issue which no one seem to be aware of is how they dispose of the filtered waste in the hospital as a byproduct of the filtration.where do they dispose it and how they gather and transport it. we are talking here of toxic waste and as such it is to be disposed off separate from other waste. It is also transported in a closed van and disposed in a secure area.
There are also several factors that could cause the alleged pollution of the Abra River. one that the DENR should look into is the disposal of piggery waste into these canals and eventually ending up in the Abra River. another is the possibility that septic vaults of houses in the area are overflowing and finding its was into these canals that lead to the river.
and speaking of polluting the Abra River, do you know where the garbage collected in Bangued is dumped? it is in the banks of the Abra River. we have here what we call a WASH and WEAR garbage disposal. These will eventually end up in the ocean after the floods come during the rainy season.
see it is not only the hospital that causes this alleged pollution but there are others to blame.
MY COMMENT ON MARIO BANG’S ENTRY ON FEB. 15:…..
SIR, I agree to most part of your dissertation, YES, you’re very familiar with “WASTE MANAGEMENT”
although you have admitted you’re not an engineer but a “CRITIC” ….
1. The site of the HOSPITAL …to you the site is not right …. where is the right site should have been?
2. Construction of the HOSPITAL should have been handled by ENGINEERS experienced in building
public structure or edifice.
3. The money spent on the construction of the ABRA PROVINCIAL HOSPITAL!!!
DR. LEO.
I believe the above comment/question should be thrown to the Provincial Government agencies if not the Governor. Every pollution problem should be “properly” addressed by the Government, for what are our taxes for?
dr leo, our group had always maintained our stand that we do not need to construct a new hospital but rather to rehabilitate the then existing hospital. why? first is based on the rule on building hospitals specially government hospitals which states that the hospital should be near the center of town, that is, it must be accessible and that the fare coming from town should be minimum fare. the site of the then aph was ideal for that preposition. the site now is far from town and the patients that go there have to add to yhe minimum fare. second, it would have been more economical rehabilitating the old hospital.
as i’ve mentioned the hospital should have been built by experience hospital builders not ordinary contractors who have no experience at all in hospital building. everybody knows who the contractor is, and everybody know their credentials. don’t you wonder why with just a few months in operation, the new aph is plagued with so many problems. to mention a few, the hospital has 3 operating rooms but as of now, only one is functional, the floor is fast becoming delapidated and now this issue about the sewerage. if it were experienced hospital builders then we could have avoided this kinds of problems.
the funding of the hospital put the government of abra in neck deep indebtedness. the hospitals funding was from a loan at land bank to be paid for 15 years or so.
now that the hospital has been built, we no longer have anything to say but watch on how this hospital is being run operated and maintained. you are a doctor so you should know that building a hospital is much easier than maintaining it specially in this kind of political setting of patronage.
you seem to be absent now dr leo tuason. i have answered all your questions but you seem to be silent now.
you are doctor so you really have something to say about this issue and not just ask!
yes, the pollution of the abra river comes from different factors,to name a few, washing and swimming directly at the river itself,small and large scale mining,the big piggery on the northern part if fully operated will also cause severe pollution because its waste is directed to one of the tributaries.
Pasig river was once a life-full river. As the civilization progressed however, waste and other pollutants found its way to the river that causes its death. Before such alarming situation reach our very own Abra river, the government together with its concerned agencies should invest its resources and manpower to look upon these recurrent to avoid a disastrous environmental problems in the future. Does the municipal engineer’s office has a 20-year plan for the structures, sewage and canals as well as treatment facilities? The problems of the APH discussed in this forum suggest that it has none. These things can only be done if we have leaders that are God fearing and who has strong political will to curve all these problems.
you are absolutely right naeling. we need leaders with the political will and determination to implement what is right.the municipality of bangued which is a first class municipality should have a zoning ordinance so as the comprehensive land use plan. with these two documents, the municipality will have control on the use of the spaces in bangued. this will include the prohibition of putting up of big piggeries in the urban areas so as not to pollute the waterways and also the air. this will also determine what particular areas are for industries and those for housing.
the problem presented here is the pollution of the abra river. but all the canals and streams located in bangue all ebentually drain into the abra river
a
we need a multi sectoral group that would oversee this problem. this should be spearheaded by DENR and the LCEs. but the problem here is that our leaders are divided themselves over their own political agenda.
if you have seen the posts of miss norma henessy in another forum, the true state of the art filtration system are among those she posted. but the filtration system but the filtration system that the aph has is a very small one contained only in one room of the new hospital which must explain that the waste water is not really filtered well
No comment unless alipores of takit will say so
daytoyen ti pakakitaan ti kinatangken ti ulbod daguitoy mangimaton ti dayta nga ospital ta nangipanan da tay milyones dayta nga ospital?over priced la ngaruden di pay kompleto ! sinno ti mayat nga agsida ti lames ita nga adda ti baba ti calaba river?awan met ngamin ti abot ti agong daguitoy nga agturay so nga dida maangot ti nabangsit. apay nga makatitileng ti kinaulimek ni GOBERNADOR iti daytoy nga issue?
to make things worse, the APH was classified by DOH as a level one hospital from previously being classified as level 2. what does this mean? it only means that the classification of the hospital has been downgraded. why? because of the level of care it offers. this will also mean that the aph will be paid less by philhealth for the services they render. that translates to loss in its revenue. the two level 2 hospitals of abra are Seares hospital and bangued christian hospital, this means that the two hospital offer better service than aph. this quite bothering because the government spent a lot of money to put up the hospital just to be downgraded to the level of valera medical clinic. what are the administrators of the hospital doing?
Abrenios, let the eye of vigilance never be closed. We should demand an answer from gov takit?
It is our duty.
MARIO BANG’S POSTINGS ON FEB. 19 :….
I’VE NOT BEEN ABSENT ON A SUBJECT RELATED TO THE BETTERMENT OF THE PROVINCE NOR
SILENT BUT IT TOOK ME TIME TO ASSESS AND TO FORMULATE A DECENT REPLY TO DELICATE
QUESTIONS, such as……
1. WHY DIDN’T THE GOV. TAKIT ADM. consider building the new APH at the same site of the OLD
>>>>>HOSP., close to the center of town.
2. WHY MORE EXPERIENCED HOSPITAL BUILDERS WERE NOT EMPLOYED IN THE
>>>>>CONSTRUCTION OF THE APH.
PEOPLE WHO ARE FOR GOOD GOVERNMENT….HEADED BY MS. PURA SUMAWIL SHOULD
HAVE COME FORWARD AND SUGGESTED “SOME THING”.

MY REPLY TO PAGALSEM:..
SIR, If I’m not mistaken , the present site of the NEW APH is part of the BREEDING STATION, a
GOVERNMENT OWNED LAND. PLS do your home-work on this subject.
IN ALL GOVERNMENT PROJECTS….. I understand that “BIDDING” must be done first. I’m sure this was done
to the satisfaction of the public
“bidding”? Kaano pay nga adda “legal nga bidding” kada proyekto ditoy Abra? Your sureness is not sure, doc…I am very sure of this…..
doc nagsukisokak ti sungbat tay inlanad mo a kas assignment ko you are RIGHT and at the same time you are WRONG, NGAMIN saan amin nga daga nga nalakonan ti ABRA PROVL HOSPATAY ket kukua ti gobyerno!
PAGALSEM….
SIR, IS IT POSSIBLE YOU’RE MISTAKEN IN YOUR ASSESSMENT, THAT THE NEW APH WAS BUIILT
OUTSIDE GOVERNMENT “BREEDNG STATION” PROPERTY.
WHEN I WAS IN GRADE SCHOOL, MY BROTHER-IN-LAW THE VETERINARIAN IN CHARGE OF THE
BREEDING STATION SHOWED ME THE AREAS SURROUNDING THE “BREEDING STATION”…. WHERE
THERE WERE GUAVA TREES. I BELIEVE SIR, THAT THESE AREAS ARE GOVERNMENT
PROPERTIES.
GENTI:….
SIR, your allegation that there was no “BIDDING” on the construction of the new APH. Will you please
share with us your proof.
Dr. Tuason.
I mentioned on my above comment of “legal bidding”, there might be a so called “Takutan” or Takitan bidding. Anyway, the “proof” are these questions that the Gov (or you) will not answer: When was the bidding (no agkikitada), who were the bidders (kakabagyanda), who conducted the bidding (alipores ni Gob), where did they conduct the bidding (maybe in galyera).
GENTI:…
SIR, the “BIDDING” SHOULD HAVE BEEN MADE “PUBLIC”….
IF THE BIDDING PROCESS TOOK PLACE, THERE MUST BE NAMES OF BIDDERS….A LIST OF NAMES,
PLEASE. BY PROVIDING US LIST OF NAMES OF BIDDERS , THEN YOUR ALLEGATIONS SHALL BE
PROVEN TO BE TRUE. BY THE WAY, WHO HOLDS THE LIST OF BIDDERS..
DR. LEO.
Exactly Doc, who held the list of bidders? You are right, in theory, the bidding “should” (must-by law) have been made public. As far as I know, everything and everyone is “unknown” to the public, except the “inner circles”. This is all I can about say about that.
SYSOP::…
HOW ACTIVE IS THE NGO ORGANIZATION OF MS. PURA SAMAWIL FOR THE BETTERMENT OF
THE PROVINCE OF A BRA? CAN HER ORGANIZATION HELP US SECURE A LIST OF ” BIDDERS”
FROM THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT.
DR. LEO.
FRIENDS….
THE LIST OF NAMES OF ‘BIDDERS’ IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW APH from the local
government must be available for people to see. The evidence of >list of bidders< SHOWING THE
WINNER OF THE BIDDING must be present.
The absence of the evidence – list shall signify that the new APH WAS BUIILT ILLEGALLY !!!
TO BE CONTINUED;….
DR. LEO.
CONTINUM:…
The LIST of bidders and WINNER ( ONE WHO BIDDED THE LOWEST) is a public document which includes
architect’s design shall be available to everyone interested to see in a proper legal method. MEANING ….
interested people accompanied by their lawyersl
ADDENDUM:…
ANYONE interested in knowing who were the “BIDDERS and WINNER” should demand his/her
rights from the “LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICE” who handles the ” LEGAL DOCUMENTS”.
THANK YOU,
Dr. Leo
DR LEO i cant help but smile at your comments that ANYONE who is interested SHOULD DEMAND………..dok,umay ka a ngamin ditoy abra., dita TATE mabalin ta ibagbagam ngem no ditoy PINAS specially ABRA,ibirbirok mon a ti panangikkat da ta bukel LATEG mon! sus apo ka met !!!!!adda pay abal balay ni baket? wenno kayat mo ti maput dan ti DILA na?aaaaaaaaaaaayyyyaayyyayyy ! mas lalo a kagura nakon ni bumaket…su nga BAAAAAAAMON !!!
KARASAKAS:…
It appears that you ‘re still in the dark ages of Gov. V VALERA ADMINISTRATION that the people has no voice
against the current ADM. of GOV. TAKI.
WAKE UP MAN, DEMAND FOR YOUR RIGHTS.
I fully agree with karasakas, dr leo,why not come here in abra so as to know the real score?but it would be a waste of time and money,if your ears are tuned to a certain decibel produced by the drum beaters of your beloved takit. are your eyes still keen and can see clearly from a distance?i hope so doc,so that you can see the real abra and lastly i do hope that your nose is good so that you can smell the stink of corruption emanating from the capitol.
MY REPLY TO KARAKAS AND PAGALSEM:….
I’m very fascinated by your statements that my presence in the province by your invitation shall
inevitably improve the economic outlook of the province … that is to detect ”smell of stink of corruption
emanating from GOV. TAKIT capitolio”.
SIRS, If you have strong evidence to remove LEGALLY GOV. TAKIT. ( VOTE HIM OUT FROM OFFICE ).
I’m sure , with the many followers of MARIO BANKS, and many more “ANTI-TAKIT” peop;le…. you can
replace him with a BETTER ONE. AND GOOD LUCK.
DR. LEO

GENTI:..
I understand you’re are for a good government without graft and corruption,
Sir, even in this country of USA these evil characters ( Graft and Corruption) exists in the government but in it is
corrected by active opposition party not by active all finger-pointing people, speaking out-loud constituents .
One way to correct these is … >to remove the wrong doer in the office from office by legally voting him / her
out from office and replace him/ her with one whom you believe to be honest.
KABABAYANS:
MANY of us desires to have a good GOVERNMENT in ABRA and MANY of you are dissatisfied with a
BERSAMIN in the person of (TAKIT with a BERSAMIN DNA) in the office for the province May I remind
you all that the BERSAMINS has served / well presently serving the people of the province. PLEASE
READ THE BRIEF HISTORY OF THE BERSAMIN FAMILY in the ABRENIAN WEBSITE ARCHIVE.
DR LEO
KABABAYANS and FRIENDS:
It is very clear that most of you are for good GOVERNMENT. for the province. You may include me as one
who desires the same.
When the late CONGRESSMAN “CHITO” was still alive, I made a promise to him that I would save all
surgical instruments I have purchased during the years of my private practice and donate to the (APH )
ABRA PROVINCIAL HOSPITAL (this, of course the old hospital)..
UNCLE, CHITO said with DETERMINATION >>>WAIT TILL I BECOME THE GOVERNOR AND THEN
SEND THOSE INSTRUMENTS. AS YOU ALL KNOW HIS BRIGHT ( PRO- PEOPLE) LIFE WITH
(BERSAMIN DNA – GENE IN HIS BLOOD) was CUT SHORT BY ASSASIN’ S BULLET.
KABABAYANS and FRIENDS;
It very clear that most of you are for good GOVERNMENT FOR THE PROVICE. YOU MAY INCLUDE
ME AS ONE WHO DESIRES THE SAME.
When the Congressman “CHITO” was still alive I made a promise to him that I would save all surgical i
Instruments I have purchased through the years I was in active practice and DONATE THESE INSTRUMENTS
to the ABRA PROVINCIAL HOSPITAL (old APH).
UNCLE>>>CHITO SAID … WITH DETERMINATION >>WAIT TILL BECOME the governor of the province
THEN YOU MAY SEND THE INSRUMENTS AS YOU ALL KNOW HIS BRIGHT (pro-people) life was cut
short by assassin’s bullet.
.
..DR. LEO.
FRIENDS:
MY understanding of hospital CLASSIFICATION by DOH……
LEVEL ONE>>>>has limited patients care.
LEVEL TWO >>> has better patients care . There are TWO HOSPITALS with such classifications…..
1. CHRISTIAN CHURCH HOSPITAL of DR. BEN BRINGAS USA TRAINED.
2. QUALIFIED DOCTORS SEARES MANAGED THE SEREAS HOSPITAL.
FRIENDS:….
The SURGICAL INSTRUMENT S ARE MADE OF STAINLESS STEEL SO THEY WAIGH HEAVY.
SO THEY WERE SENT IN THREE SEPARATE BALIKBAYAN BOXES INTERVAL OF SEVERAL
MONTHS ADDRESSED TO CARE OF GOV. TAKIT HOPING THAT HE WILL RECEIVE THEM BOXES
INTACT WITHOUT BEING PILLAGED IN TRA NSIT. THESE INSTRUMENT WERE INTENDED TO BE
USED IN THE OLD APH. BY QUALIFIED SURGIONS. >>>meaning doctors who had training in surgery.
Dr. Leo Tuazon, we appreciate your concern for the welfare of our province in spite of your age and of being far away. How we wish more Abrenios have the same heart who are better blessed to imitate your noble example.
Concerning your doubt on the integrity of gov. Takit not only on your donation but on his kind of governance, I wish to let you know that accusations against him are not all true. Most of these are motivated either by envy or hatred. Actually, I personally believe that he is one of the best if not the best governor Abra we have had. To justify my claim,he is the only governor with no violent instinct, always campaigning for peace n brotherhood and not employing criminals as bodyguards. He accomplished infrastructure more than all precedent governors accomplishments put together. His recent election by entire cordellera political leaders and with the confirmation of pres. Pinoy as chief of the entire Cordillera Development council, justifies that he is a man of integrity and of capable leadership. Furthermore, with his humility, he is very much accommodating to anyone, ready to listen to their needs or grievances. I really don’t understand why some people refuse to see to what really transpire in terms of socio-economic development and peace in Abra with the leadership of our governor.
ADDENDUM;;;;
There are enough instruments in the three BALIKBAYAN BOXES I SENT TO RUN A SURGICAL
SUITE of a hospital by well QUALIFIED PHYSICIANS WHO HAS HAD TRAINING IN SURGERY.
MY understanding is that the doctors of the old APH were appointees from past ADMINISTRATION
and even the present ADMINISTRATION through recommendation from friends in the same POLITICAL
PARTY.
SEVERAL PHYSICIANS in the old APH were appointees ….NOT BY MERIT
I HAVE HEARD OF DR. GASA ever since the ADMINISTRATION VYCSID VALERA.
NEXT>>>>
ADVICE TO GOV TAKIT.
ADVICE….
1. RECRUITE NEW (recently finished surgical training) SURGEONS FROM MEDICAL SCHOOLS.
2. GIVE THEM INCENTIVE —SALARY ENOUGHT FOR A DECENT LIVING EXPENSES AT THE BEGINING.
3. ALLOW THEM TO HAVE OWN PRIVATE PRACTICE FOR LIMITED YEARS …SAY TWO YEARS.
4. PROVIDE THEM HOUSING ACCOMODATION NEAR THE HOSPITAL . AFTER TWO YEARS THEY
MUST VACATE THESE HOUSING QUARTERS ….. THESE QUARTERS SHALL BE MADE
AVAILABLE TO USA VISITING PHYSISIANS WHO SHALL SERVE AS CONSULTANTS IN THE
HOSPITAL .
5. IN THE MEANTIME ENTICE SOME OF THE BRIGHTEST HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS FROM THE
ABRA HIGH SCHOOL, ABRA VALLEY SCHOOL, AND DEVINE CATHOLIC SCHOOL TO STUDY
MEDICINE …. USE THE SCHOLARSHIP SPONSURED BY THE LATE CONG. CHITO BERSAMIN.
AND SCHOLARSHIP SPONSURED BY THE PRESENT IMCUMBENT CONGRESSLADY.
