The information was obtained in a press statement recently released by Caraga Aksyon Balita publisher Roberto “Jun” Parada, newly-elected president of CARTRIPA which is also known as Caraga Tri-Media.
The said regional media group was organized in the afternoon of October 8, 2011 during the culmination of the two-day Caraga Regional Media Conference held at Prince Hotel in Butuan City. Its present membership includes media practitioners from the print, broadcast and internet/online media covering the five provinces and six cities of Caraga Region 13.
In an interview, Parada said they are very elated that NPC president Jerry Yap has accepted their invitation to become their inducting officer and keynote speaker. According to him, Yap’s acceptance as inducting officer is a very big boost to the morale of local journalists in this part of the country and he considers the same as a major achievement.
“This is the first time in the history of the entire Caraga Region that a legitimate regional media group was organized and its officers will be sworn in by no less than the president of the National Press Club. We have chosen NPC president Jerry Yap as our inducting office because of his unquestionable integrity, his national stature and the prominence of the organization he represents. Stated thus, taking our oath of office before him is already a very big accomplishment because it will give us immeasurable honor and prestige,” Parada explained.
He disclosed that the forthcoming induction of officers will be attended by Governor Sol Matugas, Congressman Franciso Matugas, Congressman Guillermo Romarate, Jr., Surigao City Mayor Ernesto Matugas and other town mayors of Surigao del Norte.
