it in the marketplace where everybody seems to find reason for laughter in every experience. What’s so darned funny? And what are they constantly talking about? This joy of life is evident
in the shopping malls, on the streets, the beaches. It’s everywhere. Its evident at all of life’s stages, mothers kissing and cuddling their gorgeous children, schoolgirls and often school boys smiling while walking arm-in-arm in the mall or on the streets. Parents with grown-up children warm and at ease with each other. What’s going on? What’s the secret to their treasured contentment? I’ve been given several
answers to this question but none provide sufficient rational explanation. I’m repeatedly told people here are accepting of their life, and very resilient. But that’s an inadequate response. The answer needs deeper explanation.

defies statistical reasoning. How can such beauty be so prevalent? And its not simply the physical beauty. Looks from deeply-expressive eyes speak unspoken volumes with one flirtatious glance. Eyes that could provide sufficient energy to light up large cities, the intoxicating allure of Dumaguete island women, it’s almost too much. But what a delightful burden to endure! Could anyone, perhaps
an anthropologist, please provide me with some insight on this perplexing question? If bottled, many parts of our troubled world could wonderfully benefit from drinking a cup of this treasured island brew. I’m flying from Dumaguete to Manila in a few hours, then on to San Francisco on Philippine Airlines. Only Filipina stewardesses can make the usually-boring safety drills effortlessly look like a sensual dance. And even if the plane was about to crash into the cold, Pacific shark-infested waters, I doubt if they would lose their composure, and would only smile delightfully while saying how much they looked forward to seeing us on our next flight. I’ll only be gone for 10
unknown factors involved. What impact does the warm, tropical climate have to the people’s temperament? In Ireland, where the weather is often harshly wet, cold and grim, we tend to be a moody, depressed people who drink heavily. Perhaps the warm climate plays a significant part in the people’s positive life outlook? And the women! I suffer

then I’m sitting on the rear of a scooter zipping down brought about by the crazy Dumaguete traffic before reaching the Valencia road, I know the majesty of Mt. Talinis will soon loom ahead with floating, white and dark clouds opening their arms to embrace me once again. Soon, I will be listening to nature rejoice all around me. And when I go to bed, I’ll have a grateful smile because I will have come back home to Dumaguete.

that the owner’s duplicate copy of Transfer Certificate of Title No. T-35366 and Transfer Certificate of Title No. T- 35367 be declared as lost and hence, null and void, and as a consequence, the Registry of Deeds of the Province of Negros Oriental be directed to issue a new owner’s duplicate copies thereof, with the same terms and conditions as the original ones, and which shall, in all respects, be entitled to like faith and credit, after payment of the fees prescribed by law.

owners of Lot No 2881-C with an area of 2,610 square meters and covered by Transfer Certificate of Title No T-35366, and Lot No. 2883-A consisting of 9,050 square meters covered by Transfer Certificate of Title No. T-35367, both lots being situated in barangay San Miguel, Bacong, Negros Oriental. Lots 2881-C and 2883-A were consolidated and subdivided into 13 sub-lots by virtue of Consolidation/Subdivision Plan (Pcs-07-004520) duly approved by the Land Management Sector of the Department of Environment & Natural Resources, Region VII, Banilad, Mandaue City on May 10, 2004. Pursuant to the Declaration of Heirship duly annotated as Entry No. 159179 on TCT No T- 35366 and TCT No. T-35367, Lot 6 with an area of 1,000 square meters, was partitioned and adjudicated in favor of Petitioner. In fact, TCT No. T-35366 and TCT No. T-35367 were partially cancelled since all the other sub-lots (except Lot 6 adjudicated to Petitioner) were issued separate titles in favor of the other co-owners pursuant to the Consolidation/Subdivision Plan (Pcs-07-004520) and approved technical descriptions submitted to the Office of the Register of Deeds of the Province of Negros Oriental. For the purpose of issuance of separate title of Lot 6 in her name, Petitioner was in the custody of the owner’s duplicate copies of the subject TCTs. Lately, however, Petitioner discovered that the last page (page7) of the owner’s duplicate copies of the two TCTs were missing, and despite earnest efforts to look for it, she could not find it anymore. Thus, Petitioner had no other option but to declare the owner’s duplicate copies of the subject TCTs as lost in order for the Office of the Register of Deeds of the Province of Negros Oriental to issue new titles thereof. In compliance with Section 109 of P.D. 1529, Petitioner executed an Affidavit of Loss which was duly annotated in the Memorandum of Encumbrance as Entry No. 2017001034 in the original or file copies of TCTs in question with the Office of the Registry of Deeds of the Province of Negros Oriental. Petitioner further averred that the owner’s duplicate copies of TCT No
T-35366 and TCT No. T-35367 are not known to be sold, transferred, conveyed or delivered to any person or entity to secure any debt or encumbrance, and that Lot 2881-C and Lot 2883-A they cover are not known to be attached, pursuant to any order of any court or tribunal. Being sufficient in form and substance, set the hearing of the petition on
Sept. 13, 2017, starting at 8:30 in the morning at the sala of this Court located at the 3rd floor, Hall of Justice, Piapi, Dumaguete City. All persons having or claiming interest in the subject matter of the instant
petition are hereby directed to appear and show cause why the Petition should not be granted. Petitioner is directed to cause the publication of this Order at her expense
in a newspaper of general circulation in the Province of Negros Oriental and its component cities once a week for three consecutive weeks, and to post copies thereof in the premises of Lot No. 2881-C and Lot No. 2883-A, and to show proof of compliance thereof. The sheriff of this Branch is directed to post copies of this Order at the
entrance door of this Court, as well as in the respective bulletin boards of the OCC, RTC, Hall of Justice, the Office of the ROD, this Province, the Municipal Hall of Bacong in Negros Oriental, and at the Provincial Capitol, Dumaguete City.
