The Philippine Navy in Cebu successfully conducted
“Operation Tuli” in Negros Oriental particularly in Barangay Motong, Dumaguete City
Operation Tuli and share-a-meal program for more or less 300
children from different barangays were initiated by the employees union of
Pilipino Cable Corporation Sky Cable Dumaguete City headed by Sandy Tinguha as
part of its outreach programs in the barangays, this time in cooperation with
Barangay Motong through village chief Dionie Amores.
Other services include free haircut where 90 children and
adults have availed of the activity held at the covered court of the barangay.
According to Lt. Junior Grade Renante Villela, it is in
Dumaguete that they encountered a 75-year-old undergoing circumcision, while
the youngest was four years old.
He said this is a regular activity conducted by Philippine
Navy central during summer vacation upon the invitation of different groups and
organizations to help parents defray expenses incurred for the circumcision and
haircut, among other services.
The PN’s medical team is headed by Dr. Amy Balunes.
On the other hand, barangay captain Amores said those who availed
of the free circumcision are children of poor families who are not going to
school this year, and the number could have been doubled if the first schedule
was pushed through.
Barangay Motong is also regularly conducting a medical
mission every quarter, the next schedule of which is on June 12, 2015.
