Born to be Wild

"Croc Capture" and "Aquarium Trail" 

Seven months ago, fifty juvenile Philippine crocodiles were released into Isabela’s Divilacan Lake .  The Philippine crocodile is one of the most endangered animals in the world.  If not conserved, they are feared to become extinct in the next ten years.  The release of fifty crocodiles in Isabela is considered historic.  According to Mabuwaya Foundation, a conservation group focused on the Philippine crocodile, this was the single largest release of Philippine crocodiles into the wild.  Born to be Wild’s Doc Ferds Recio documented this groundbreaking event, and participated in the assessment of the crocs.

 Doc Ferds re-visited Divilacan to check on their progress.  Experts undertook a grueling effort to recapture the crocodiles to measure their size.  This procedure is necessary to find out whether the crocodiles are able to feed and survive on their own in the wild.

Meanwhile, Kiko Rustia visited a community that lives on catching and selling aquarium fish.  Kiko followed the complex trail that these fishes trace before reaching homes.  He also discovered that people in the business use compressor diving methods which pose a threat to their health.

 To determine the conditions under the sea and to find out the possible effects of this barangay-wide industry, Kiko invited a marine biologist to survey marine life in the area. 

That was the episode of Born To Be Wild last Thursday and try to catch Born to be Wild on its new timeslot, every Thursday after Saksi  over GMA Network.  

"Bakit ikaw ang ibobotong kandidato? " 

KANDIDATO, the new GMA News & Public Affairs program hosted by Arnold Clavio, will pose that and other tough job-application-type questions to the presidential hopefuls began March 3, Wednesdays after Saksi, on GMA.   

One presidential candidate per episode will face what may be one of the toughest interviews he or she will ever encounter. The candidates will be treated just like any other job applicant – answering questions on their background, qualifications, and those based on their platform, stand on key issues and issues or controversies they are involved in.  

After all, job applicants go through careful scrutiny before they get hired, why not those who aspire for one of the toughest jobs in the land – the Presidency.

The duties and responsibilities of the President are extraordinary, most especially in the Philippines . The times call for a leader who can bring hope and improve the lives of the people; and more importantly, the country needs a leader who is strong, wise and honest.

 For its pilot episode, KANDIDATO featured former National Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro.  Easy, average and difficult questions were thrown at him by members of the panel – Malou Mangahas, Howie Severino,  and host Arnold Clavio.  Believe it or not, the former secretary admitted that he has lied to his teeth!  His relationship with "political father" and uncle Danding Cojuangco was also discussed.  The questions were weighty and very interesting.    

Get to know the candidates in KANDIDATO, airs every Wednesday after Saksi, on GMA Network.   

Well, narito na naman po ang paborito nating lahat sa Showbiz Express, ang "EWAN QUOTE" ni Kuya Jun T. na pinalakas. Hehehehehe! Here they are: "The measure of a person is not how well he prepares for everything to go right, but in how gracefully he stands up and moves on after everything goes wrong. Stay happy.!" Here’s another: "Forget REGRET, or life is yours to miss." Last na ‘to: "All the waters in the ocean could never sink a ship unless it gets inside. Likewise, all the pressures of life can never hurt us, unless we let it in. Laugh away anger. Smile at insults. Pay back arrogance with humility and we will be at peace!."
