Rescue Olympics Rules: Letter to Assistant Secretary Joseph A. Main

August 6, 2014

The Honorable Joseph A. Main
Assistant Secretary of Labor for Mine Safety and Health
Office of the Assistant Secretary
Mine Safety and Health Administration
Department of Labor

Dear Assistant Secretary Main:

For the last five years, the Rotary Club Manila East has been actively sponsoring the holding of a limited national capital region - Metropolitan Manila Philippines fire rescue contest at the Rizal Park in the City of Manila.

Our group in the Philippines, the Resource Recovery Movement (RRM) organized by the Center Humanes Societas Inc., has determined to hold an event of national scale similar to the Mine Rescue Contest of the MSHA of the United States. We would like permission to publish the adaptation of your rules into our contest rules for our targeted publics to be aware of them.

In this connection, we would like to utilize all of the salient points of the Mine Rescue Contest for the contest rules of the Rescue competitions that we will be organizing - hopefully in cooperation with the Rotary Club of the Philippines - under the Urban Rescue category.

Thank you so very much and we hope if you and your people have got the time to write us, kindly send us any useful suggestions on how to make our rescue competition event a real success.

Shown below is the draft of the rules as we adapted them that could still stand a number of corrections.

More power to MSHA!

Very truly yours,

Centre Humanes Societas Inc.
Philippines

Letter to the UN

Open Letter to the United Nations

November 21, 2013

HIS EXCELLENCY

BAN KI MOON

Secretary General

The United Nations

UN Headquarters

First Avenue at 46th Street

New York, NY 10017

USA

Dearest Secretary General Ban:

Our warmest greetings!

Kindly please understand, I had seriously debated on whether to send this communication to you or not. I decided on going through with it since I believe that the result would turn out for the better. Nothing that transpired in the past has diminished nor degraded my respect and love for the UN. I have no intention in demeaning anyone's position or creating anything negative between myself, my group and the UN even if that can't be helped, but this has to be done, and I shall humbly embrace the consequences of my act.

After tropical cyclone Haiyan aka Yolanda, not a surprising lot of relief organizations are now helping in Tacloban, in the towns of Leyte, Samar, Cebu, Bohol, Capiz, Aklan, even parts of Mindanao. Entire states committed volumes of resources to come to the aid of the Philippines. As published in the media, the Philippine Government stated that the affected areas include nine (9) Regions in the entire archipelago that consists of seventeen (17) Regions. . . It is presumed that all of these relief organizations and representatives of their own countries are operating out of the goodness of heart and the desire to be of sincere help to the people of Tacloban City, the municipalities of Leyte, Samar, Cebu, Bohol, Capiz, Aklan, portions of Mindanao. Although some are at a loss to convince others of their intentions: "just wait... in due time we are convince you of our legitimaty."

Some of these relief organizations are part and parcel of the United Nations organization. Be that as it may, most or all of these organizations anyway, under the principle that all states are municipalities embraced by the founding charter of League of Nations that is now the United Nations, are governed under the auspices of the august body that you head. The people of Tacloban City and the rest of the areas affected by the tropical cyclone Haiyan aka Yolanda, are grateful for all of the help of the UN, the honorable member states under it and the public sector as well as private relief groups that are now helping.
