Topic: Santo Domingo, Ilocos Sur


  
  Ilocos Sur, Philippines
Ilocos Sur Governor Deogracias Victor “DV” B. Savellano is seeking for a sustainable development of the tobacco industry by calling for a well–represented tripartite consultation of tobacco stakeholders including tobacco farmers, cigarette manufacturers, leaders from the Virginia tobacco producing provinces and the National Tobacco Administration (NTA).
Loreto Rirao, commander of the Army’s 503rd Infantry Brigade (IB) based at Sulvec, Narvacan town, Ilocos Sur province said this was after the capture of a number of guerilla camps, surrender of rebels and recovery of numerous high-powered firearms and voluminous subversive documents from the insurgents.
On the other hand, Ilocos Sur, which was called as heritage province of the Philippines due to the existence of the century – old houses and churches, was also known for its agricultural and tourism potentials because of the presence of attractive beaches, rich natural resources and considered as the country’s biggest producer of tobacco.

SANTO DOMINGO, Ilocos Sur -- Overseas Filipino worker Elsie Tubon, 45, was earning 6,000 pesos monthly as a domestic helper in Malaysia and left a huge debt in the Philippines.

But Tubon, while coordinating with Ilocos Sur officials for the repatriation of the couple, suffered as she was often reprimanded by her employer for her frequent telephone use and mounting phone bills.

SANTO DOMINGO, Ilocos Sur—The incumbent mayor of this town, Floro Tadena, is entitled to another three consecutive terms of three years each, or a total of nine years because he was unseated by the court in an election protest before the May 10 polls.

The explanation of Gines could resolve the ongoing debate in Santo Domingo on whether or not Tadena was entitled to a full nine-year term—if he wins in three consecutive elections.
