The U.S. District Court has is­sued a detention order following thearrestofEdwardSemanlriarte, aCNMI Immigration Officer who is allegedly trying to "conspire to possess with intent to distribute and more than 10 grams of meth- amphetamine".

In a Detention Order signed by Judge RobettHefner on Monday, July 16, Iriarte was found with “probablecause” thatheallegedly committed thecrimeof possesing with intent and distributing more than 10 grams of methamphet- amine. Iriarte was arrested fol­lowing a warrant of arrest issued

and signed by U.S. District Court Judge Alex Munson.

According to court documents, almost a month long surveillance was conducted by Special Agent (SA) Paul G. Samoy of the Fed­eral Bureau o f Investigation, Iriarte was arrested by S A Amoy at the parking area of the Saipan International Airport.

The contraband, yeilded after an hour of thorough investigation in the area, was found under a parked vehicle after a negative search of Iriarte’s person was conducted.

Based on the Detention Order, “ no conditions of release or com­bination of conditions of release

will reasonably assure the ap­pearance of the defendant since the crimes he has committed in­volves a narcotic drug and that the weight o f the evidence is against Iriarte."

Based on the evidences gatheredby the Court against Iriarte, the U.S. Court has ordered that he be “detained pending a preliminary hearing pursuant to Rule 5 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure” .

The Hotel Association of the Northern Mariana Islands has come out with a proposition for the Coastal Resources Manage­ment (CRM) to create a safe and sanitary new dumping site at the Marpi Quarry.

The proposal, contained in a letter addressed to Vicente Aldan, Acting Administrator of the CRM and signed by Mr. Toshimi Yoshida, President o f the HANMI, recommends that that the CNM1 government take extra precaution to create a safe and sanitary new dumping site in the

area since it is near one of the largest hotels on the island, the future location of several other hotel projects and is near a resi­dential location.

The HANMI signified their concern that burning should not be done at the new site since the smoke emanating from the proce­dure might have harmful effects not only to the health of the tour­ists but also to the residence in the area.

Yoshida, in an interview Mon­day, said that the HANMI is also asking for the assistance of the government to protect the under­ground water in the area from

pollution. Potential pollu-tion might occur in the area since the chemicals that may accumulate in the new dump might seep into nearby wells.

Insufficient public water sup­ply has made hotels in the area rely solely on its own well water supply to support their needs. HANMI is proposing thataround three to four wells be constructed to test the ground water in the area

once the dumping site is moved.The CRM granted a permit for

a new landfill site in Marpi last June 19. The site is projected to absorb up to 15 years of Saipan’s garbage.

CRM has imposed a series of controls designed to lessen the impact of construction and opera­tion of the landfill on surrounding residents and tourists.

Among the conditions imposed

The HANMI signified their concern that burning should not be done at the new site since the smoke ema­nating from the proce­dure might have harm­ful effects not only to the health of the tour­ists but also to the resi­dence in the area.

Senate Committees will hold public hearings for the proposed Shimizu Golf Course Project on.Kagman Land Area.

Today’s meeting in the House is to begin at 10 a.m. according to a public notice issued by the House Committee on Resource and Development.

Shimizu Corporation is requesting to lease public land in Kagman area for developing a mega resort and two golf courses. Law lease proposal approved by the MarianasPublic Land Corporation is now at ¿ e Commonwealth Legislature awaits both Houses action.

The House and the Senate have invited about 40 heads and representatives o f departments, businesses and organizations to appear at the hearingorsubmittheir position on the Shimizu project

Daring the past month, the pros and against the project are debating the issue wether the public land, 2000,000 sq. meters, 'should be leased for the price of 12 cendis per square meter or be kept for homesteads and agriculture. However, several persons confirmed that they expect a lot o f people will appear at the hearing,:

by CRM is an all out information campaign to people involved in the project about restrictions on land excavation, clearing and other environmental conditions. Anticipated dust problems during construction of the dump site is proposed to be controlled by sprinkling the dust generation areas with water or treated with approved substances.

A recycling area' for bottles, glass, metal containers, plastics and burnable trash would be made possible. Afenceandconstruction of several monitoring wells is also proposed to ensure the safety of groundwater and fresh water in the area.

Prohibition of open-air burning of refuse will be implemented so as not to put the health of the general public in danger.

Yoshida said that the govern­ment should enforce strict regu­lations so as to ensure the residents of the area that they would be protected fromanydangerbrought aboutby the relocation of the new dumping site and that the envi­ronment would be protected as well.

Dear Editor,May I request for your kind

indulgence in making possible the printing of this letter of apprecia­tion to your widely read newspa­per, so that the people may know the good deeds our deserving govemmentofficialsdoendeavor. Thank you.

I refer this letter to Mr. Ramon Guerrero, an Executive Assistant during the Tenorio Administra­tion, and now the Commonwealth Utilities Commission CUC Di­rector, who had exercised his le­gitimate duties when he an­nounced that delinquent con­sumers will face utilities discon­nection should they &il to settle their monthly dues with the CUC. This indeed, was an unpopular decision among the consuming public. How ever,Dir.Guerrero’s aim is to protect the interests of the government over and above by giving priorities for the im­provement of the CUC facilities and safeguarding in interests of the consuming public and those whoreligiously pay their monthly dues to the CUC.

As an early commuter, the un­dersigned witnessed one incident whereby Dir. Guerrero’s unre­lenting desire for a better service. On that particular early morning, as I was driving along the Beach Road, an electrical post was bro­ken, having been rammed by a truck. Dir. Guerrero personally supervised the replacement of the broken postand the installation of the power lines and enhanced speedy repair. With this dedica­tion, he has established an exem­plary name and deed in the portals of public service.

Despite someopposition forthe appointment of Dir. Guerrero, to the CUC due to some require­ments prescribed by the Legisla­ture, Gov. Guerrero together with Lt. Governor Benjamin Manglona exerted their rightful powers to appointRay Guerrero andindeed, they made the rightful choice.

I now wish to say to my fellow consumers of The CUC Utilities that the little inconvenience we sometimes suffer are signs of im­

provement of our facilities. We have to give Dir. Guerrero our moral support - He is a man of action and performance. He is Mr. Public Service of the CNMI.

Hafa Adai.Very truly yours,¡si Jesus M. Taisacan

Dear EditorMuch have already been said

both by those who support and those who oppose the Shimizu Project Yet the isolated inputs of these concemedcitizenswillmore or less have an effect on decisions that will eventually be made. My purpose here is basically to make some point of clarification on some of the methods being em­ployed by those who vehemently oppose the project First of all we are talking about a golf course, not a toxic chemical plant so let us stop trying to create some kind of hysteria over the issue.

It’s been asserted that the land belongs to the people and shall be appropriately apportioned ac­cording to the will of this same people. If this were the case then we are faced with the horrendous task of determining what the peoples will is. It is further wrongly assumed that the proper method of getting at the people’s will is through public hearings. The small number of people who attend public hearings cannot possibly be mistaken to represent the willofthepeople. Evenamong those who come there is never a unanimous agreement on the is­sued at hand. The fact of the matter is 90 percent of the popu­lation do not come to the public hearings. Why some people persist on holding public hearings totally escapes simple common sense. If these people are really genuinely interested in following the will of the people then they should let Congress make that decision; as it is by the will of the people - consent of the governed that their powers arederived from.

Moreover, tourism industry is

the number one industry in the commonwealth; and for good reasons no one has objected to the millions of tourist dollars' that is poured into the coffer. People need to realize that the Marianas Islands are not the only islands interested in developing a tourist industry. Other Pacific islands are quickly gaining popularity amongJapanese tourists. Ponphei has its picturesque water falls and Belau the Rock Islands. We are faced with a new generation of

Japanese tourists; ones who find WWII relics a painful reminder of a war they started and lost. Let’s face it we are confronted with the challenge of the chang­ing demands of the hospitality industry and golf courses have contributed TREMENDOUSLY to helping the Commonwealth meet this challenge. Yes we would all like to keep our tourist dollars pouring in and at the same time keep our land, our culture but,remembertheoldsaying“you

can’t have your cake and eat it too.”

Lastly, I find the deliberate ha­rassment and unfounded accusa­tions of officials both in Congress and MPLC detestable and debas­ing. Such reckless and abusive exercise of the guarantees of the first amendment is not deserving of its constitutional protection.

Sincerely,

/s/JOSECING MAFNAS

Dear Editor,Thisistoregistermy opposition

of the proposed Shimizu Golf Course Project in Kapnan.

Shimizu Corporation and company glibly inform us of Japan’s economic outlook not making it feasible to develop golf courses there and of their limita­tion to barely make it profitable on Saipan. Should that ever am­biguous fact put the burden on an unknowing poor island country to squeeze its countrymen’s meager fragile resources in order to make richer multi-national corporation shareholders!

Ready to launch only the big­gest undertaking of all Shimizu Corporation worldwide projects; Shimizu found these very tiny islands to put on the prestigious map. Coincidentally, they, also, have cheap labor, cheap land prices, and ever willing public advocates. And Shimizu expects to realize just a few millions!

Above all, has Shimizu ever emphasized the exorbitant prices of land in Japan? Why should land be cheaper on an island so much tinier and land so much scarcer? Why should we compare land value with Guam’s oranyone else’s for that matter, when the deal is between Shimizu Corpo­ration (with Japanese backing) and theNMI?

Which of the parties involved, Shimizu and the NMI, can, in reality, afford to be benevolent and generous in offering and providing assistance without de­grading or compromising the dignity of the other?

What other economic, social, and environmental inadequacies, disruptions and destructions await us because we are so ill-prepared

to carry out today what ought to bedonesomany years from now? All thesearebiirdenson the whole community, especially the future community, which should be ac­counted for and on which we cannot put dollar values, indeed.

Itis so pathetic andoutrageous. In the face of calls for foreign investment moratorium (make it a very long one so we can do some weeding too) a deal like Shimizu’s should not be allowed to take up any more precious time and delicate resources of the Marianas people. Yes, we are talking livelihood/survival of our people versus entertainment for the rich being peddled by an un­scrupulous profit-driven com­pany, which is to be expected of multi-nationals, now trying to pass off as a friend. We should be angry and rightly so.

Friends do not exploit. Given our tininess, our future genera­tions will, indeed, be faced with high-rise multi-family units even without golf courses and hotels. The proposed Kagman resort is definitely an exploitation

The frostings/offerings, phan­tom or not, do not make it any less exploitative. Briberies do not become less so because they are flaunted publicly or because they are offered to more and more individuals and entities. We have no right to dispose of, or collect from, what rightfully belongs to future citizens.

Notwithstanding any of the above, are not the following ap­plicable? Do not try to fix what does not need fixing? Leave Kagman alone; it has been around without Shimizu’s, or any other company’s, custodial care.

Furthermore, would you hire a

fox to look after your chicken coop? $500 million plus invest­ment, and Shimizu does not con­template to acquire an extension of its lease!

Because Shimizu will not drop this project on its own volition, it is up to us to do so. There are some things which cannot be compro­mised regardless theattractiveness of the offerings and briberies and how much communicating, beg­ging (money, indeed, cannot buy everything) by the Shimizu rep­resentatives and associates and consultants. We can develop our islands and progress at our own pace, as our capability warrants.

I conclude with the following text Dr. Robert McAfee Brown, one of America’s most distin­guished Protestant theologians, used in his book, Saving Yes and Saving No On Rendering to God and Caesar The demands of jus­tice should first be satisfied, lest the giving of what is due injustice be represented as the offering of a charitable gift. Not only the effects but also the causes of various ills must be removed. Help should be given in such a way that the re­cipients may gradually be freed from dependence on others and become self-critical. (Vatican Council, AA:8)

Tourism- Wave of the FutureR eprin ted from Work1 D evel­

o p m en t (UNDP)

B y : U o y d G a r r i s o n

Early this year, at an inter­parliamentary meeting in The Hague, delegates spoke o f a “tourism revolution” sweeping the globe, arevolution promising much and already delivering a great deal to those who have positioned themselves toride the crest of the wave. The stakes are high. ‘Tourism,” says Antonio Savignac, the new Secretary General of the World Tourism Organization, (WTO) “will be­come the world’s number one export industry by the turn o f the century.”

What this means, according to WTO projections, is that money generated from the global ex- changeofpeoplewillsoonexceed earnings from trade in oil - cur­rently the world’s number one

- exportThe importance of this revo­

lution for less developed nations is clear. In a world in which manufacturingand commerce are becoming increasingly hi-tech and dependent on automation, tourism depends unashamedly on people to make it work.

“Because it is so labour inten­sive and growing consistently,” says Eugenio Yunis, Deputy Chief o f Technical Co-operation at WTO headquarters in Madrid, “tourism isamajor new source of jobs in developing nations.”

In fact one in every 16 work­ers world-wide already owes his or her job to tourism, according to a report by the U.S. based

Wharton Econometric Forecast­ing Associates. “Traveland tour­ism is the largest industry in the world in terms of employment,” says the report Wharton analysts also note that governments are US $166billion richer as a result of tourism-related tax revenues.

All these numbers are subject to rapid change · almost certainly upwards. According to WTO, tourist travel is expected to grow more than 40 percent in the de­cade to come.

It is an industry that Europeans havebeen fine tuningfor decades. And while Europe still makes more money from tourism than any other region, Asian nations now command nearly a fifth of the action.

“Alternative tourism” is catch­ing on fast, and could be a leading money-maker in the 1990s. Thailand is creating “exercise centres” for health buffs and re­tirement villages for Western pensioners sick of thecrowdsand the high prices in Florida and the Cote d’ Azur. Bali is building huge conference centres in the hope o f becoming the “Geneva of the East” Tours are proliferating that cater to bird watchers, theater and music buffs, hunters, hikers, golfers, scuba divers, sailors, surfers, and lovers of endangered species. In Rwanda, foreigners are noW paying $170 per person for an hour’s viewing of mountain gorillas in the Parc National des Volcans.

Not surprisingly, establishing the world’s first training institute in alternative tourism is one of WTO’s top priorities. WTO, which receives nearly all its fund­

ing for technical assistance from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), also stress­ing “integrated development.” This means helping governments find the right mix between private and public investment, and shap­ing policies that assure that tour­ism does not erode the environ­ment A typical WTO blueprint for tourism development calls for training hotel operators, relaxing visa requirements, mounting pro­motions overseas - and boosting domestic tourism to cater to the leisure time of the developing world’s growing middle class.

To support the many less devel­oped nations seeking to attract more viators,UNDPhas commit­ted $28.5 million since 1980 to assist tourism in no less than 49 member states. Projects range from advising on an advertising campaign for Anguilla to drawing upatourism masterplan forcypnis.

Many developing nations will need to mount crash programmes in hotel and tourism training to meet their own plans for expan­sion. Cubahasvowedathree-fold increase in tourism, making it the ration’s leadingindustry by2000. India, which seeks to more than double hotel occupancy over the next decade, must train 250,000 new workers to match such growth with skilled manpower.

Thefoilowingcase studies show how six countries from Bhutan to Barbados are coping with both tourism’spromiseanditsperils. If one lesson emerges from this spe­cial report, it is that those who hope to ride the boom into the next decade must start planning now if they are not to be left behind.' As

Earthquake hits PhilippinesB y R o b e r t H . R e idMANILA, PHILIPPINES

(AP)- A major earthquakerocked Manila and surrounding Luzon island Monday, inflicting serious damage. Officials reportedat least 51 people killed, most when a six-story college building north of Manila collapsed.

Scores , more were believed trapped under the rubble o f crumbled buildings, including 150 reportedly trapped in the Hyatt Hotel in the moun tain resort in Baguio.

The U. S . GeologicalSurvey in Golden, Colo, registered the quake at 7.7 on the Richter scale.

There were scores of after­shocks.

The Office of Civil Defense said the Philippine Christian College collapsed in the provin­cial capital o f Cabanatuan City. The city o f more than 80,000 is 60 miles north of Manila and was near the epicenter.

Theofficesaidatleast41 people were k illed in the c ity and outly­ing area. O fficials in Cabanatuan said hundreds o f students were unaccounted for, but it was un­

certain how many were in the building when it collapsed.

In Baguio, 110 miles to the north, portions of several luxury hotels collapsed. The Manila ra­dio station DZRH said 150 people were trapped inn the Hyatt Hotel. A woman who identified herself as a public relations officer of the hotel said most of those trapped were in the casino.

She did not give her name. Officials in Baguio appealed for heavy equipment and for blood which they said was in short supply.

Air Force Master Sgt. Dan Fuller, reached by telephone at the U. S.-run Camp John Hay in Baguio, said the city was without electricity and that damage was widespread.

“We’re withoutpower”. he said. “We’ve had structural damage here on base. We do have seven buildings down downtown which as far as we know they are com­pletely fallen in.”

He said U. S. personnel assisted in rescue efforts.

could go much higher. The Red Cross reported four dead in the northern provinceofPangasinan.

One person died of injuries in Manila, where the temblor cracked buildings, knocked out electricity and communications and sent thousands fleeing into the streets.

A radio station in Dagupan, 100 miles north of Manila, said 13 people were killed there, out the report could not be confirmed. It said all died in stampedes as panic-stricken people tried to flee a movie theater and schools.

The quake struck at about 4:30 p. m. In Manila, numerous bu ildings were damaged and one fire broke out in the city’s Santa Cruz district.

The institute of Seismology and Vulcanology, said the tremblor was centered just south o f Cabanatuan, capital of Nueva Ecija province..

The temblor knocked several radio stations temporarily off the air. Stop lights in Manila were knocked out of service, creating huge traffic jams.Continues on page 4

Officials reported widespread damage throughout Luzon, were many towns and cities were with­out power. Radio station DZRH quoted an affiliated station as say­ing a church in he northern prov­ince of Ilocos Sur collapsed.

President Corazon Aquino or­dered the military to launch an island-wide rescue operation. Her spokesman, Adolf Azcuna, said thepresidentwasmeetingsenators in her office when thequakestruck and took cover under a table.

Reynaldo Punongbayan, direc­tor of the Philippine Institute of Seismology and Vulcanology, said the quake measured? on theRichter scale in manila. Officials said it was the capital’s strongest quake since 1968.

A quake measured at 7.8 struck the Philippines in 1976, killing

8,000 people. Most of them died in a tidal wave which struck the southern island of Mindanao.

Manila radio stations reported cracks in the walls of many build­ings, including the downtown ticket office of Philippine Air­lines and the Manila Hotel, a luxury hotel on Manila Bay from which hundreds of guests were evacuated into the streets.

In the capital, office workers rushed into the streets in panic. Several were seen praying or making signs of the cross.

The Richter scale measures the magnitude of a quake according to ground motion as recorded on seismographs. Every increase of one digit represents tenfold in­crease magnitude. A quake of magnitude 7 is capable of wide­spread, heavy damage.

In exchange for the supply of the drug, Iriarte promised the CW that big profits would be reaped once the contraband be sold. The drug supply would also serve as a payment for the assistance pro­vided by Iriarte in the processing of business entry permits, accord­ing to court documents

Based on court transcriptions, Iriarte has already been dealing with drugs even when he was vis­iting Guam.

Iriarte, in taped conversations with the CW, said that he is hesi­tant to “deal” in Guam since there are many informers on the island. He also claimed responsibility that he helped a certain tourist make $12,000 through drug deals.

A $50,000bail bond was issued for the release of Iriarte but the court have not received any offer from Iriarte nor his lawyers. A succeeding hearing will be con­ducted by U.S. DistrictCourtJudge Alex Munson on July 23,1990.

If convicted, Iriarte faces pos­sible jail sentences of five to forty years (with a mandatory minimum of five years’ imprisonment)

Propst receives JAL scholarshipEdwin Propst, a first year Busi­

Propst, 19, of U.S.-Filipino ancestry, was selected by a panel consisting of school representa­tives and JAL management. Among 3 contenders, Propst was chosen asSaipan’srepresentative in the annual competition which is now on its 17th year of opera­tion.

Propst, who feels ecstatic and excited upon being chosen asd theisland’srepresentativeleftlast July 10 in time for the Summer Sessions at the Sophia University in Tokyo.

His 6 weeks itinerary includes six weeks of classes in Manage­ment in Japan and Basic Japanese I in the University, a five day tour of the country and visits to festi­vals and various areas of interests in Japan.

The JAL Scholarship, which was open from February to May, chooses 648 student representa- tivesfrom the Asia-Pacific region. They are chosen based on the results of an essay writing com­petition and personal interviews conducted in English and the native language.

The theme of this year’s writ- ingcompetition is “Whatchanges in the world do you predict in the last decade of the 20th century.”

The JAL programme offers a basic study course which is de­signed and conceived by the air­lines as a contribution in building better relations betweenJapan and other countries through the expe­riences of the participating stu­

dents.The programme, on July 16 till

August 18, includes classes at the Sophia University Ichigaya Campus in Tokyo, a series of lectures, visits and homestays which provides greater person- to-person contact

A five day tour of Japan and a short trip to Hokkaido would also be in the itinererary of the partici­pants.

Succesful examinees at the end of the courses would be given certificates of merits.

JAL will provide for the course fees, accomodation costs, trans­portation and daily allowance to cover for living expenses.

JAL representative on Saipan Ms. Susan Hofschneider was re­sponsible for the scholarship programme on the island.

2 July, 1990

TO THE SEVENTH (7th) LEGISLATURE

Honorable Delegates,

As Maria Pangelinan said in the present controversy o f the GOLF COURSE subject, she calls for a “Balance Develop­ment”. We, the CNMI Taxi Association likewise wanted the same for the Golf and Country Clubs to extend their services to the taxi entrepreneurs. It is a recorded subject that these golf and country clubs are operating on Public lands which belongs rightfully to the CNMI. It is therefore imperative that they also protect and give the taxi association and other local entrepre­neur, having interest in tourism a fair sake. They must cease to operate buses that conducts their customers to and from the hotel and instead utilize the facilities of the local taxi service, to help poor drivers meet their financial obligations, provide them with a decent livelihood, food and shelter. The practices of the aforesaid golf and country clubs denies the drivers their rightful dues, as citizens o f the CNMI.

Experience foretells that the taxi drivers had to line up from 5:00 a,m. to 10:00 p.m., or even late waiting for customers in the hotels and other business establishments. On good days, an hour of waiting is considerably good, on the other days, three to four hours o f waiting before you can have a passenger, then all o f a sudden buses of golf and country clubs enter the hotel’s driveway and pick up passengers. It is very humiliating, considering the time lost for a driver has to wait. This is unfair and unethical practices o f the country & golf clubs.

For and in behalf o f the CNMI Taxi Association and its drivers, and in my capacity as the President o f said association, I vehemently protest to such practices. It is Anti Local. It is then in my humble and honest belief that the local legislators must act now and institute measures to protect the local drivers. These practice must be put to an end as it is discriminatory and inimical to the best interests of the locals o f Saipan.

As we are for development, we suggest that the local leadership promulgate a law, to protect the interests of the local taxi drivers. To urge SHIMIZU and other Conglomerate Groups to work hand in hand with us, if they are sincere with their com­mitments for a more better Saipan. A balance development is the equal distribution o f legal business.

It is therefore concluded that the Honorable Legislators to make into effect a law, giving the taxi drivers association the priority in dealing transportation business with hotels and country clubs and other business establishments relative thereto. It will benefit the CHAMORROS & CAROLINIANS alike, the lands of Talofofo, As Teo, Kagman, Papago, San Vicente and Dandan as well, will have tremendous benefit. Your immediate resolution will put Saipan in the eyes of the international market, a wall street of the Pacific, whereby the per capita (GNP) o f the locals will increase.

Incidentally, the Mariana Public Land Commission (MPLC) had announced the availability of 3,000 homestead lots nearby for local distribution among our people. Needless to say, but it is high time for the government to help our landless citizens.To those retractors, do not instill informations that the government is not protecting its citizenry. Our government is extra concern for our well being that is why all avenue for economic development in CNMI is given priority so the citizenry may enjoy the fruit o f contentment and to be self-reliant away from the United States.

Tinian started on a venture o f casinos, hotel and golf courses and other resorts which made her supportive to the cause of the CNMI. Rota is coming too with the same exponents on development. The three island group of the CNMI will be a whole body, working more for a better progressive government and protecting the legal rights o f the local citizenry.

Moreover, we the members o f the taxi association, will look with great admiration to the local delegation o f the 7th Legisla­ture, if and when they can act favorably on this venture and remove the unnecessary wording and promises about prorate and self-interests. YOU THE LEGISLATURES MUST GIVE SAIPAN ITS DUES.

HAFA ADAI.

Very truly yours,

JESUS MANGLONA TAISACAN PresidentCNMI TAXI ASSOCIATION
