                    [Summary] => After waiting interminably for the controversial 12.6 hectare fishpond property in Tañza,  Navotas to be filled up and reclaimed in time for the relocation of Malabon rail dwellers displaced by the North Rail Development Project, housing officials have been convinced to drop the site because the railway systems’ developer can no longer wait for it to be made habitable by the property owner. Officials said they are now scouting for more viable alternative sites in Malabon.

This was virtually what Vice Mayor Mark Allan Jay Yambao, acting mayor of Malabon, told suspended Mayor Amado Vicencio last Sunday night, in response to a plea for the political upstart to step down and allow the mayor to re-enter city hall unmolested the next day, Monday.


"I told him he is free to enter the city hall if he believes his suspension (by Malacañang) has already been lifted," Yambao told The STAR. He added he will obey and follow but only when there is due process.

In a 10-page decision, the Comelec affirmed an earlier ruling to void two additional council seats, which had been made available as a result of an encoding error.


The new Comelec decision paved the way for Councilors Isagani Santos (District 1) and Rogelio Yanga (District 2) to step down. Both ran under Mayor Amado Vicencio’s ticket in the May 14 polls.

                    [Summary] => Malabon voters showed no interest in yesterday’s plebiscite for the ratification of the town’s cityhood yesterday as low voter turnout was observed in all polling stations.


But still, local official expressed optimism the "yes" vote will prevail.


"The latest electoral exercise, though peaceful, registered a very low turnout," Malabon Commission on Elections (Comelec) chairman Armando Mallorca said. 


Mallorca, however, could not provide exact figures on those who trooped to the polling precincts to cast their votes.
