SOCOTECO II emphasizes the critical role of Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM) program in preserving their resources, ensuring continuity of their operations as well as giving support to the community in times of calamity. “This training program taught our personnel the value of creating foolproof DRRM programs. We hope that our personnel will use the knowledge they’ve

gained and translate it into programs that will ensure the continuity of our operations, as well as be of help to others during calamities,” MBA - General Manager of SOCOTECO II Geronimo D. Desesto shared. AboitizPower reiterates how partnerships like the one they built with SOCOTECO II contribute to nation-building and hopes to lead by example. “We are thankful for this opportunity to partner with SOCOTECO II in creating a program that empowers individuals to be of service to their fellow citizens in times of calamity.

Further, Aboitiz Foundation Program Manager for Disaster Risk Reduction, Welfredo Dalumpines, underscores this training as means to help SOCOTECO

II Member-ConsumerOwners in future-proofing disaster preparedness in the area. “The level of engagement we have received from our participants gives us confidence that they were able to learn a lot and are now better prepared not just to respond, but to anticipate and prepare for future calamities. We also thank the local government of Malungon, most especially Meralyn Fernando, Louie Castro, Klea Dionisio, and John Dayanan for helping us conduct this training.

Heal the Blighted Land Back to Life

KNEELING before the statue of a Crucified Christ, can’t you not hear the painful cries of billions of species being crucified to the altar of greed and profit by the oligarchs in advancing corporate globalization? Nature is the manifestation of the Creator and is therefore sacred; oneness therefore with all of God’s creation is the essence of divinity which is true love. Let our consciousness therefore touch base with GAIA (Mother Earth} to be aware of the present state of ecosystems and that awareness should propel us to action, thus, the adage, “Think Globally, Act Locally.” In the light of the present ecological disasters we are now experiencing as the Philippines is the 4th hardest hit in the world by Climate Change, it behooves upon all of us, the sons and daughters of GAIA to do some reflections. Let us take heed of the ecological warning that the current degradation of the environment and the massive loss of species are evidences that we are facing our own extinction. Indeed, we are now in the 22nd year of the 21st century but we do not know any more if we can reach the 22nd century

which is only78 years from now. In the next 30 years, the ocean level will rise-up by at least 16 meters or the height of a 3-storey building that will mean some 35 million Filipinos will be homeless especially those living in the nearby coastal communities. By that time, the City of Cagayan de Oro will be erased from the face of the earth. The Jesuits know this truism that’s why they are selling the land where Xavier University is now. A well-known environmentalist from Canada whom I had the privilege of meeting has even a more horrible prediction that, “at the rate we are destroying the ozone layer and the world’s resource base and subjecting to extinction some 100 species of flora and fauna every day, what seems unimaginable may become possible, which is, the end of life on Earth.” It is predicted by environmental experts that in the absence of a major change, the world system will collapse in less than a hundred years due to unsustainability in ecology manifested by Climate Change, the rising of the oceans, the melting of the iceberg, the massive loss of

Orlan R. Ravanera

species and the destruction of the eco-systems. As we do some reflections, let us examine the present state of the Philippine environment by asking some relevant questions: Why have we allowed the powerful loggers to decimate our forests, reducing the 17 million of dipterocarp forest to less than a million hectares now after just a century of massive logging? Don’t you know that the six logging companies, i.e., TIPI, Vicmar, Remedios Fortich, Valderama & Sons, Roa & Sons, 1st Lt. Desty Eleazar, etc. were earning some 360 million pesos in just one shipment of logs? But such raking went also to the pockets of law enforcers as logging activities were done in gross violation of existing forestry laws- the reason why we in Task Force Macajalar staged a 10-year direct actions against logging through human barricades. After losing our natural resources, our vast agricultural lands and watershed are contaminated with toxicity. See LIFE, page 15

Hints and Traces

God is attracted to the guileless THAT amusing story about how Nathanael or St. Bartholomew became one of the apostles can only tell us that God is attracted to persons who are simple, childlike, without guile, and are so transparent that they are unashamed, like little children, to show their warts and other forms of human weakness. (cfr. Jn 1, 45-51) “Can anything good come from Nazareth?,” he retorted when told by Philip that they have found the one foretold by Moses. For that response, Christ who could read the minds of people, could not help but say, “Here is a true child of Israel. There is no duplicity in him.” And it’s very interesting to note that this dubious quality of Nathanael must also have led him to quickly recognize Christ as the one foretold by Moses when Christ told him something. Nathanael embodies the ordinary person who, in spite of warts and all, still has that basic, irreducible trait of exposing his heart, no matter how defective, to the truth. He does not run away nor hide from it. He is truly a man with no guile, no pretensions, no need for covering. Except

for the normal need for discretion and modesty, he is completely transparent. What you see is what you get. More, he is willing and eager to know the truth, and to make the necessary changes and adjustments that such truth would require of him. He is humble enough to accept things as they are, never bending them to make the pieces fit his own ideas. Rather, the contrary. That’s why you immediately feel good every time you meet such persons. They always exude such welcome and wholesome aura about themselves in spite of their imperfections. They contribute in making society more at peace and in harmony. Children are such persons, though their being guileless is due to their innocence and lack of exposure to the world. When you see such quality in a person who is already exposed to the world, then you would really feel good. Let’s remember and imitate St. Bartholomew in his simplicity of heart and sincerity. His story shows that before we look for the truth, it is God first, Truth

Roy Cimagala

himself, who looks for us. And we should just try to correspond as best that we can. Once we find it, let’s earnestly engage ourselves to it, never playing around with it to serve our self-interest, but rather conforming ourselves steadily to its requirements. This is when we can see more things, just as our Lord said: “Blessed are your eyes because they see…. For amen I say to you, many prophets and just men have desired to see the things you see, and have not seen them…” (Mt 13, 16-17) Otherwise, we would get our just deserts. Let’s remember St. Paul’s warning: “Because they receive not the love of the truth that they might be saved, God therefore shall send them the operation of error, to believe lying.” (2 Thes 2, 10) Let’s see to it that even as we immerse ourselves in the increasingly complicated world of our temporal affairs, we should remain and deepen our childlike See GOD, page 15

With the goal of reducing its carbon footprint and achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions, Nestlé Philippines reaffirms its commitment to use clean and renewable energy as it renews its partnership with AboitizPower for a Cleanergy supply. The partnership enables Nestlé PH to use clean and renewable energy for six of its facilities, sourced from the Tiwi and MakBan Geothermal Power Plants, operated and managed by AP Renewables, Inc. (APRI), an AboitizPower subsidiary. AboitizPower, together with its partners, is the Philippines’ largest owner and operator of renewable energy based on installed capacity. The partnership between Nestlé PH and AboitizPower began in 2013, when the for-

mer started its energy transition. Currently, AboitizPower supplies Cleanergy to all of Nestlé’s factories in Luzon as well as its local head office in Makati City. Globally, Nestlé as the world’s largest food and beverage corporation aims to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and reduce in half by 2030.

THE Philippines’ leading fintech super app, GCash, believes prioritizing customer experience is crucial for startups that are looking at achieving the muchcoveted ‘unicorn’ status. A unicorn is a startup that’s valued at over $1 billion dollars, and as for Mynt, the operator of GCash, it’s already achieved double unicorn status in the past year. At a recent virtual forum, GCash Chief Customer Officer, Winsley Bangit said that it’s essential to integrate customer feedback and needs when it comes to developing insight-driven customer experiences. “For any technology app, customer experience is our bread and butter. We need to deliver our promise of convenience, reliability, and safety so that customers can do their financial essentials with peace of mind,” said Bangit. Bangit also noted that GCash is driven to respond to its users’ needs quickly. For instance, sending money needs to happen in real time, credit needs to be accepted by merchants, and savings should be transparent and easily accessible. However, in the event that a product or service experiences roadblocks, Bangit also assured users that they

will quickly react and solve these problems. Winsley joined several other executives from other companies in a recent virtual forum titled, “Reimagine Mobile Shopping Experiences: Humanize Customer Experience (CX) with the Power of Personalization.” There they discussed how businesses can improve customer experience and how this has become an important driver for successful startups. Aside from Bangit, officials from select Southeast Asian unicorns and companies joined the panel discussion namely, Robinsons Bank Vice President Janette Abad Santos, Insider Country Manager Fay Angelica Supremo, and Lazada Philippines Brand Acquisition Manager Jia de Guzman. To serve its customers better, GCash also aims to be agile to improve the customer experience with technology. Bangit mentioned that GCash rolled out a verification tool to help ensure that users are certain about who they’re sending their money to and that they will be notified before accidentally sending money to a non-GCash user. GCash went a step further by ensuring that its subscribers’ money that

was being sent to nonGCash users can still be used through GCash Padala. Through GCash Padala, the receiver can collect the money in any of GCash’s 17,000 partner branches nationwide. As part of its commitment to continuously improve customer experience, GCash builds the trust of its users by safeguarding their security and data privacy. GCash has continuously been rolling out security features such as Personal Identification Number (PIN) verification, facial recognition, OneTime Password (OTP), and electronic Know Your Customer (eKYC) verification process. “Agility is important in order to quickly respond to our customers’ needs. But more than that, we should be able to hand-hold our customers in their journey as we want to be more than just an app, but to be truly a partner to our customers,” said Bangit. With over 60 million users to date, GCash ensures that it will continue to be agile in making Filipinos’ everyday lives better and help achieve the company’s vision of enabling a cashless society leading to Finance for All.

PH sends off 61 Pinoy hotel workers to Israel By JOYCE ANN L. ROCAMORA

MANILA – The Philippine government is set to send off 61 Filipino hotel workers to Israel, the first deployment of its kind since the latter opened its hospitality sector to foreign workers. Israel Ambassador to the Philippines Ilan Fluss said a total of 500 are set to depart Manila, with the first 61 leaving on June 1, 2022. “Until now the hotel industry was closed, this is the first time that the hotel industry was able to invite foreign labor so for Israel this is very important For

the Philippines, I believe it’s also important because until now the only Filipinos who were allowed to work in Israel are caregivers,” Fluss said during a send-off ceremony at the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) in Mandaluyong City on Tuesday. “We’re just exiting the pandemic, I believe there is room for growth for the tourism industry so we’re starting with the 61 tomorrow up to 500,” he added.

4Ps to focus on the first 1000 days of children THE Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) is stepping up its strategies to improve its beneficiaries’ health and nutrition. The 4Ps National Project Management Office (NPMO), together with the UNICEF Philippines, trained all regional Family Development Session (FDS) focal person, Training Specialists, and Social Welfare Officers (SWO) III in drafting materials that focus on its strategies. Through this, the program becomes more health and nutrition-sensitive towards behavioral change. The move is in adherence to the Republic Act 11148 or the “Kalusugan at Nutrisyon ng Mag-Nanay Act,” more popularly known as the First 1000 Days law. Signed into law by President Rodrigo Duterte on November 29, 2018, the

law seeks to scale up the national and local health and nutrition programs through a strengthened integrated strategy for maternal, neonatal, child health, and nutrition in the first 1,000 days of life. The law provides the enabling environment for the sustained provision of critical early child care interventions for optimal growth and development for the first 1000 days of a child’s life. DSWD and UNICEF trained the FDS focal persons and SWO III’s to develop supplemental materials to improve the 4Ps constituents’ access to health and nutrition services focused on the first 1,000 days. 4Ps National Project Management Dire c tor Gemma B. Gabuya said the training at Grand Astoria Hotel, Zamboanga City, on May 24-27 is in line with the department and program mandates of the agency to

The birth of petitioner was belatedly reported and registered by her parents. Her birth was only reported and registered on May 9, 2002 with the Office of Local Civil Registrar of Marawi City and was issued a certificate of Live Birth with Registry No.2002-3527.Copy of petitioner’s Certificate of Live Birth is hereto attached and marked ANNEX “A”; 4. Unfortunately however, there are erroneous entries in said Certificate of Live Birth of petitioner, which are the following: MIDDLE NAME: CLEMEN’A DATE OF BIRTH: May 29, 1989 RICHELLE ROSELEM MAIDEN NAME OF MOTHER: CLEMEN’A TOTAL NUMBER OF CHILDREN BORN ALIVE: 2 NO. OF CHILDREN STILL LIVING INCLUDING THIS BIRTH: 2 5.

Petitioner is the eldest child of her parents. She has four other siblings namely: ARAFAT, born on May 28, 1999 in Marawi City, NAJMAH, born on June 18, 2003, in Marawi City, NASRIMAH born on April 28, 2006, in Marawi City, and ASRAF born on January 7, 2010 in Marawi City. Copy of petitioner’s siblings Certificate of Live Birth are hereto attached and marked as ANNEXES “B” TO “E”; The correct name of petitioner’s mother is RITCHELLE ROSELIM CLEMEŇA born on July 4, 1981, in Kimaya, Consuelo, Magsaysay, Misamis Oriental, Copy of her Certificate of Live Birth is hereto attached and marked as ANNEX “F”; The date of birth of petitioner as reflected in the Certificate of Live Birth which is May 29, 1989 is grossly erroneous, petitioner’s mother being born on July 4, 1981, thus, it is physically impossible for petitioner’s mother to give birth to petitioner on May 29, 1989, when she was still 8 years old. Petitioner’s correct date of birth is May 29, 1998. Petitioner has been using May 29, 1998 as her date of birth in her school and public records, it being true and correct one. Copy of petitioner’s Official Transcript of Records issued by Iligan Capitol College and her Postal Identification Card are hereto attached and marked as ANNEXES “G” AND “H”; Considering that the correction of petitioner’s year of birth cannot be done administratively, petitioner is filling this petition in order to correct his year of birth from 1989 to 1998 and also for herein petition straight.

Finding the aforesaid petition to be sufficient in form and substance, it is hereby ordered that the same be set for hearing before this Court on JULY 06, 2022 at 8:30 o’clock in the morning. Let a copy of this Order be published at the expense of the petitioner in a newspaper of general circulation in Lanao del Sur Marawi City or Iligan City for three (3) consecutive weeks. The Local Civil Registrar of Marawi City and the Civil Registrar General, or any person or party who has interest in the petition, may file his/her opposition thereto within fifteen (15) days from notice of this petition or from the last day of publication of this Order.

A strategic alliance between two leading companies in the country – AIA Philippines and Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI), BPI AIA held the special campaign from January to December 2021 to provide loyal customers more incentives for managing their insurance plans well. Apart from the cars given away as the grand prize, more lucky customers were rewarded as much as Php 5,000 worth of eGift credits each for being good clients who adopt better habits such as doing timely payment, enrolling to automatic payment facilities (auto-debit or auto-credit arrangement), shifting to less frequent modes of payment, and resuming premium payment for policies on premium holiday. “Our customers have already taken the first step when it comes to securing their future, but we believe the market needs a little more push in terms of reforming mindsets and habits about insurance. Through this special campaign, we have incentivized better payment behaviors and extended more leeway to help those with lapsed policies get back on track and continue to be protected through the coverage and benefits of their purchased plan. We wanted to do this to make our customers feel that a relationship with BPI AIA is a rich and rewarding experience and that a journey towards healthier, longer, better lives is worth taking,” said BPI AIA CEO Surendra Menon. In the Philippines, insurance penetration increased to 2.03% in Premium Volume as a share of gross domestic product (GDP) during the third quarter of 2021, from 1.69% in the same period in 2020. BPI AIA has consistently been recognized by the Insurance Commission as one of the country’s leading insurers, with net income of Php 2 billion by the end of 2021. This is a simple testament

of how BPI AIA policyholders are assured that their insurance firm of choice is backed by financial strength and stability. Start securing your future with BPI AIA, and be rewarded for making better choices. Visit the website or official Facebook page or contact the virtual assistant Bessie (via Messenger). Existing policyholders must regularly update or confirm their contact information through My AIA or the corporate website to remain up-to-date on promotions.

THE COVID-19 INDUCED LEARNING LOSS LORAINE R. TENCHAVEZ Iponan Elementary School

In his recent piece, Our Kids Are Not Broken, Ron Berger who is a former teacher of 25 years have pointed out that: “Our kids have lost so much – family members, connections to friends and teachers, emotional wellbeing, and for many, financial stability at home. And of course, they’ve lost some of their academic progress.” The closure of education institutions nationwide since early March of 2020 to contain the transmission of the coronavirus (COVID-19) have caused large and persistent damage to children’s learning and wellbeing. Learning loss happens when learning decays over time if children don’t engage with it regularly. To put it simply, it is the “loss of knowledge and skills that children experience when they’re not in school”. Therefore, children who dropped out from school may have slipped backward, losing knowledge or skills they once had and those who moved on to the next grade are unprepared, having missing key building blocks of knowledge that are necessary for success. And aside

from academic knowledge that these children may have missed out on, they are also at risk of “finishing school without the skills, behaviors, and mindsets to succeed in college or in the workforce”. However, Global Education Evidence Advisory Panel (GEEAP) made a report recommending these four urgent actions to prevent further loss and recover children’s education to wit: prioritize keeping schools fully open, prioritize teachers for the COVID-19 vaccination, adjust instructions to support the learning needs of children, and government must ensure teachers have adequate support to help children learn. Thanks to concerted efforts by the Department of Education (DepEd) and the national government, the worst projections for learning outcomes this past year have not materialized for most pupils. However, pupils are still far behind where they need to be, but our government now has the opportunity to mitigate the threats of this crisis and effectively support our nation’s children.

The idea of livelihood development is straightforward; to create sustainable, capability-building opportunities specifically targeted to those marginalized sectors of the community. On the other hand, livelihood development deeply roots itself in the economical progression of a nation. We cannot be able to observe a day’s job in the flourish if the economy is in the low-lying percentages, faced with challenges of instability and poor productivity. Thus, no nation can achieve sustainable economic development without a valuable investment in human capital—that is, education itself. Education, in the significance, is one the most fundamental factors that contribute to development. Have you ever encountered individuals who postulate the argument that education is ‘unnecessary’ to success? People who have reached the peak of their achievements without being able to attain or complete a high school diploma or a finish a degree? These people may either have the intellectual capacities that assisted their pursuance or the amount of strong determination and will to set on their feet for their dreams. The point is, there are successful people who aren’t born prodigies, ‘geniuses’, or with 180+ IQs and aren’t born with a gold spoon or rich successions. Not all had the opportunities they received throughout their journeys, nor the chances, to travel point A to point B. And as this is a reality to these people, this shouldn’t be an objective ideology to the general. All of us strive. We all are somewhere in our chapters, working on that livelihood initiative we aim to accomplish. But do we wait for a miracle of chances to come into our doorway? Do well all have the

capacity, that certain high level of quotients, in order to see for ourselves as capable to reach success? No. We do not. However, we strive for completion. And we are now on our way to our dreams because our principles place our perspectives on education as essential to quality improvement. And as we are aware that there is still no certain ground up to this point where all kinds of individuals are given equal opportunity to show how they would like to exercise their livelihood initiatives, it becomes innate in all of us to strive to get an education. No matter how strategies on poverty reduction are litigated, if there is no equal access to education in all sectors, it will be a never-ending crisis. If there is to give for livelihood program opportunities, there must be times two, or three givebacks on education. Although my key takeaway seems far-fetched from my aim to encourage sustainable livelihood programs, I aim to establish my theoretical principle, which is to remark that people’s productivity and sense of entrepreneurship should come first. Moreover, something that will spark their passion. And so, livelihood programs should offer diversified programs and classes, and as we aim to revolutionize sustainable livelihood, we must see to it that what opportunities the privileged have been able to attain, such as basic access to erudition, must be also given to the marginal. Interest piques our curiosity, and our curiosity brings us to places. Remember, we are shaped by the opportunities we see in life, thus, making our own fortuities. That’s why we make bigger opportunities for the population by diversifying those opportunities.

SAFEGUARDING THE MENTAL HEALTH OF THE EDUCATION SECTOR By: RYAN Z. ROA, MAEd T-I South City Central School

Teachers are transitioning through an uncertain period in terms of their professional and personal lives. They are on a mission to serve the learners building on the instructional models that have emerged to create flexible learning formats and personalize teaching styles to meet the needs of every child and act like secret agents monitoring their mental health. While strides are made to consider the whole child interventions that can account for diverse needs, teachers are in a great ordeal experiencing crisis fatigue and some mental health issues. This issue was given only less attention. Educators have been asked to drastically shift their usual practice and are swimming in a pool of big changes juggling the effects of the pandemic on their own lives. Pressures and stress among teachers from the start of the pandemic up to the near post era are piling up due to the academic context in which they work double from the preparation and the new measures they have had to adopt. Public school teachers have gone across the miles reaching out to their students for their modules while others instantly became part of a TV and a radio production team. Private school teachers on the other hand have the most serious implications due to budget cuts caused by the decrease in enrollees, instability of contracts and tenureship, and the scarcity of financial resources.

tions approached government agencies for relief goods and financial assistance to help alleviate the state of their affected employees. The importance of safeguarding teachers’ mental health to ensure high-quality teaching must be tackled at a bigger plenary. Therefore, special mental health programs and psychological support for teachers must be strengthened. They are also considered vulnerable to the impact of this pandemic. They could better cope with this crisis and perform better in their teaching roles if preventive and monitoring measures are ensured. We must bear in mind that the learnings of these young people in this current time of crisis will shape the society of the future. If we aim for education to be of a superior standard, then we must shield the psychological well-being of the people who provide it. This trickles down to the government agencies, and organizations the need to regularly gather input around the stress points for teachers and respond to them. Teachers’ healthcare plans should include a schedule for free or minimal mental health services. But firsthand, school administrators should initiate a substantive move to at least alleviate the anxiety level of their teachers by cultivating mindfulness, compassion, and appreciation for the efforts wielded. It can be an ideal start to a myriad of practices that will support the mental health of educators.

VICTORY LOVES PREPARATION by JENNIFER S. EGUIA Master Teacher I City Central School

Amat Victoria Curam is a Latin saying that translates to Victory Loves Preparation. This is the hallmark of education. It is a learning process of not just engaging in accumulating as much knowledge as we can. But it is a process of ultimate preparation. Mastery of any field of learning is not done overnight. No expert is created overnight. To master their skills, a learner must undergo rigorous and tedious training. They are training that we can transcend to the four corners of the classroom. A place where both the teacher and the student can interchange ideas and collaborate on methods that make learning worthwhile. Every student must prepare abreast themselves with the proper mindset, hard work, and passion for reaching victory. Constant preparation, repetition, and training must

be established with those of tender years. At a young age, kids are indulged in learning endeavors to sharpen their fundamental skills. The teacher furthers the research on the excellent learning material relayed in school. And within each classroom, the teacher shall be the captain that sails the children and guides them to the right places, where learning is not just a usual task to accomplish but a fun and nurturing experience. Through hard work, one develops the habit of being in constant pursuit of more significant victories. No matter how hard the journey can be, with the proper mindset to see the opportunity in failures. That loss is a means to achieve winning. And with the burning passion to bring others with you and bring about a generational cause of uplifting the quality of human life.

Face to face

By OFELIA AMOR O. KIUNISALA

DEPED said Monday it expects all schools to hold limited in-person classes in the next academic year. In the next academic year, we expect a full 100 percent implementation of face to face classes. They are urging all schools to hold physical classes. The classroom sessions would still complement remote learning modalities. We’re encouraging all of our schools to do face to face classes but what we’re looking at is blended learning. There are days when students attend face to face classes and days when they are studying from their homes. DepEd has already re-

ceived requests to allow more grade levels to hold in-person classes and increase the number of students who are physically present in the classroom. This should be talked about thoroughly. It should still follow IATF protocols. As of May 2 6, up to 34,238 public and private schools across the country have been nominated to hold limited in-person classes. The government needs to allot at least P184 billion for a save and inclusive reoping of schools. DepEd is planning to start the next school year on August 23. The government banned in-person classes in early 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Problems Hounding in Philippine Education By: HERMIE ISRAEL JACQUEZ West City Central School

Our public schools do not meet the standard of classroom facilities and equipment needed to cope with the Deped K12 program. The unavailability of learners materials and facilities are just one of the problems still hounding in education the country`s new basic education program. School facilities and learners materials can have profound impact on both teacher and student outcomes. With respect to teachers, school facilities affect teacher retention and effort. With regards to students, school facilities affect health, behavior, engagement, learning and growth achievement. Thus, without adequate facilities and resources, it is extremely difficult to serve large number of children with complex needs. Our classrooms really lack the 21st Century facilities in the form of infrastructure, laboratories, libraries, music room, audio-visual room, speech laboratory multipurpose room, gymnasium, playground and other essential facilities needed for

the 21st Century Learners. Most of the classrooms do not have sufficient flexible instructional space for effective teaching to take place. The facility is an important predictor of teacher retention and student learning. The physical and emotional health of students and teachers depend on the quality of the physical location, which makes establishing safe healthy building essentials. I think every classroom should have new technologies to cope with the K12 framework, standard and competencies. Aiming a 21st century Learner should start with 21st Century facilities. These are very essential tool in attaining what we aimed in our curriculum. There is really an irony that we have crafted a very beautiful, globally competent curriculum and yet we do not have the facilities to parallel the needs of learners and teachers. Let us just hope and aim for the better with the governance of our new Deped secretary and new management of the country

RPMS/PPST (IPCRF) curriculum and planning By ANAMARY L. DELA PIÑA Teacher III West City Central School

IN line with the new professional standards for teachers, the Department of Education (DepEd), through the Teacher Education Council (TEC), issues this DepEd Order entitled National Adoption and Implementation of the Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers (PPST). The DepEd recognizes the importance of professional standards in the continuing professional development and advancement of teachers based on the principle of lifelong learning. It is committed to supporting teachers, and taking cognizance of unequivocal evidence that good teachers are vital to raising student achievement. Quality learning is contingent upon quality teaching. Hence, enhancing teacher quality becomes of utmost importance for long term and sustainable nation building. The changes brought about by various national and global frameworks such as the K to 12 reform, ASEAN integration, globalization and the

changing character of the 21st century learners necessitate the improvements and call for the rethinking of the National Competency-Based Teacher Standards (NCBTS); hence, the development of the PPST. The PPST aims to set out clear expectations of teachers along well-defined career stages of professional development from beginning to distinguished practice; engage teachers to actively embrace a continuing effort in attaining proficiency; and apply a uniform measure to assess teacher performance, identify needs and provide support for professional development. The PPST shall be used as a basis for all learning and development programs for teachers to ensure that teachers are properly equipped to effectively implement the K to 12 program. It can also be used for the selection and promotion of teachers. All performance appraisals for teachers shall be based on this set of standards.

Each rescue vehicle is equipped with a 4x4 wheel drivetrain, mid-ship mounted searchlight, fire extinguisher, and medical supplies. “The turn-over ceremony is slated in June before Governor Dayanghirang steps down as local chief executive of the province,” Deloso said.

TECHNOLOGY MANIPULATION READINESS ELLEN MAE D. OLASIMAN,PhD Iponan Elementary School

Today, everyone needs a basic understanding of technology and how to make productive use of it, just to be good learners, workers and citizens. Teaching people how to be competent basic users of technology is an important role of information and communication technologies, so they will be successful in their academic and work careers and can efficiently participate in the modern technical society. In order to use the technology effectively, educators need to be trained in using technolog. Likewise, they need to develop a good understanding of it. Having the knowledge about it, they can also provide good information to the learners. Technology is used to enhance learning. Therefore, it is important for the educators to be comfortable using it to ensure that learners have the full advantages of educational technology.

Personally, I can say that technology is helpful to everybody. However, if ones abuse it, then, a caution must address because technology can hinder other aspects of life. For instance, using the FB, too much using it, there are times that other activities that I must do were set aside. The longer time I FB-ing will also affect my emotional aspects since there are other people commenting to one another which can also bring to intense personal feelings. Sometimes, people misunderstood how I posted life activities which are not necessary to be known to everyone else. Indeed, a dept understanding of the technology must be noted and one will be oriented on the various uses of the technologies in the society. By that, the what, when, how as well as why’s of using the technology is important so that the worthwhile day - to - day activities will be achieved.

CAT - Citizens Army Training

Empowering the Resilience amongst Children

by: MICHELLE H. GALGO Teacher I - Camp Evangelista Elementary School

By: VEINOS B. IGCALINOS Iponan Elementary School

Its been along period of time that the CAT - Ctitizens Army Training was abolized for instruction in any private and public schools in the country . This resulted to the low numbers of reserved personel in the AFP - Armed Forces of the Philippies. When this program was still mandatory to all Highh School students, they’ve learned patriotism, descipline and many other military and civic instruction that will make them as a future defender of our country. It was been replaced by NSTP- National Service Training Program. It is a civic education and defense preparedness program students instituted by the Government of the Philippines on 23 July 2001 by virtue of Republic Act 9163, otherwise known as the “National Service Training Program Act of 2001.

With the new DepEd Secretary Hon. Sarah Duterte Carpio aims to bring back the CAT in order to fully support the modernization of AFP with well trained soldiers which was molded at their young age. Making our nation great again by increasing the number of soldiers and by making our citizens to become disciplined through a series of instruction from CAT - Citizens Army Training at young age. This will greatly help in building our nation to become the tiger of asia again which we earned a long time ago. With the help and support of newly elected president Hon. Ferninand “Bongbong” Marcos, Jr. and with the 31 millions people who supported him for the unification of Filipinoes will make things happened and in order for our beloved country the Maharlika.

The ability to overcome life’s setbacks and catastrophes is referred to as resilience. People with high resilience are able to tap into their internal resources and cope with obstacles such as job loss, illness, or the death of a loved one. On the other hand, fewer resilient people are unable to cope with such situations and get overwhelmed, turning to harmful habits and substance misuse for relief. Such persons are vulnerable to mental illness and other health issues, as well as a lack of confidence. Although resilience does not imply that problems do not exist, it does indicate that such people have the ability to overcome adversity and handle life’s challenges without stress or bad consequences. The power to become resilient comes from a sup-

portive and caring family, trustworthy friends, and in having the willingness to keep trying until the desired mental state is achieved. One must have to overcome the ability to overcome anger, set realistic goals, and be confident in his abilities in being able in communicating with people to solve problems. Connecting with as many people as possible through making friends, forming teams of like-minded people, and participating in group activities and desired entertainment ways is extremely beneficial, as connecting with people makes a significant difference in one’s life. Because we all confront difficult situations in our daily lives, we should never give up. Life is never simple, and it’s always preferable to take everything in stride and face it with a good attitude.

Why are we allowing vast plantations to do unsustainable farming practices causing tremendous soil erosion, using herbicides, insecticides and chemical fertilizers which are banned already in other countries for causing cancer and deformities of new born babies? Many of these plantations, i.e., DOLE & Del Monte, are banned to enter Puerto Rico and Costa Rica, that’s the reason why they are here in Mindanao because our country has been described as a “nation of coward people.” Have industries not treated the bays as their “waste pits? Why are costly agricultural technologies tied-up to heavy usage of chemicals being promoted by the Department of Agriculture when there are more sustainable ways? Must we eat sweet fruits but first, our land and water-table be bombarded with toxic chemicals? And isn’t it that all of these are being done in the name of development? Let us now awaken to these fallacies of life! Shall we not now subject such kind of development to an in-depth analysis? For me, that kind of development can be likened to the workings of an autoimmune disease syndrome {AIDS} where no less than the body’s defense mechanisms are attacking vital organs. That is why it behooves upon us now to examine the dominant development paradigm, in whose name and for whose cause, advancing the common good has been pursued, yet, has only been successful in inflicting massive destruction to the eco-systems, our very means to life. Yes, in the guise of development, it is actually a “Pacman-like” diabolical monster gulping up everything it sees – the forest, mega-diversity, the ozone layer and even all forms of life now becoming extinct. That kind of development follows a trickle-down approach described that as if, we allow sparrows to pick on something that has already passed the digestive tracts of cattle. Such is anchored on GNPs (Gross National Projects), claiming high annual economic growth yet remains trapped at the tip of the social pyramidal order, that goes down to the people after passing “the digestive tracts of cattle.” Let us now be conscienticized on the truest essence of development which must pass a three-way test. First, is it ecologically sustainable? (meaning,it does now harm the environment); second, does it benefit the people in whose name and for whose cause it is there for? And third, does it have people’s participation. I believe that unless people participate in development process, all the outpourings of development programs

will be for naught, at best, just palliatives. Let the words of Mahatma Gandhi now reverberate: “If man has to be saved from doom, development must be in harmony with nature and not at its own expense.” Indeed. there is enough for everyone’s need but not for a few oligarchs’ greed. Kneel down to pray but first listen to the painful cries of billions of species now becoming extinct. Such is the essence of divinity as protecting God’s vanishing creation is the highest form of worship- all for God’s greater glory!

simplicity, staying away from any trace of self-righteousness. It’s actually only then that we would be more able to properly deal with whatever complications and complexities the world presents to us, since we would be with God, and therefore in the side of truth and charity.

up the legislative agenda immediately,” Zubiri said in an interview at the Senate on Monday. “He instructed me and incoming Speaker Romualdez to sit down and discussed possible legislative agenda for the Sona [state of the nation address], discussions for the Sona,” he said. In return, Zubiri said he committed to Marcos that he would help him whether or not he becomes the next Senate president. “So, we have a series of meeting and we’ve been discussing how we can assist the President-elect on his legislative agenda for the 19th Congress,” he explained. The lawmakers’ visit came a day after Marcos re c e ive d amb a s s a d or s from Singapore, United Kingdom, France, and European Union during separate courtesy calls at BBM headquarters in Mandaluyong City last Monday. This developed as Senate insiders also disclosed that there were strong indications that Migz is a cinch to bag the Senate presidency as he has the number to muster the majority against his closest rival Sen. Cynthia Villar. Earlier, reports also indicated that Villar who was apparently aware that Migz could have her num-

ber had reportedly offered a term-sharing agreement with him. Senator Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa disclosed Tuesday that Villar has discussed with him of her willingness for a term sharing with Migz. “Open naman si Senator Cynthia ng term sharing. In fact, nag-offer siya noon pa, nag-offer siya ng ganoon. I’m not sure with Migz kung okay sa kanya pero kay Ma’am Cynthia is okay naman siya mag-term sharing,” Dela Rosa, who is backing Villar’s Senate presidency bid, said in an interview with reporters. Zubiri , however, did not discuss the possibility of term-sharing during his visit to BBM. He was accompanied by Senators Nancy Binay, Ronald Dela Rosa, JV Ejercito, Jinggoy Estrada, Lito Lapid, Loren Legarda, Ralp Recto, Ramon ‘Bong’ Revilla, and Raffy Tulfo during the visit. Romualdez was joined on the other hand by Iloilo Rep. Janet Garin and Isabela Rep. Tonypet Albano. Zubiri who was re-elected as a senator in the recent election is inching closer to becoming the next Senate president after securing the support of the majority of the senators. Romualdez, on the other hand, is also the sure and runaway winner as the next House Speaker for the next congress. Observers also believed that the government will have a healthy relationship between the executive and legislative branches as the three major parts of the Philippines—Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao—are well represented.

Heads roll in City Hall as Mayor Uy reports in July CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY: Heads to roll as the city government undergoes massive revamp with the assumption of the newly elected city Mayor here on July 4, 2022. Mayor – elect Rolando “Klarex” Uy was short of declaring all positions of the 4,000-strong city government workers vacant while emphasizing financial recovery as one of the major thrusts of his incumbency. “While the financial liquidity of the city needs urgent reengineering, the fight against illegal drugs remains the top priority of my administration,” Uy

said. “I will extend full support to the city police to take seriously the anti-illegal drugs campaign during my watch, “ he said. Political opponents accused Uy as an alleged “drug lord”—a serious allegation that Uy vehemently denied prompting him to file libel cases against a former political ally who used the illegal drug issue against him (Uy) during the campaign period. In a talk with the Manila Times, Uy said that the financial status of the city government is a major concern considering the effects of the COVID-19

pandemic here. He said he would direct the transition team to review the financial status of the city government in relation to the city’s existing loans and revenues. Uy also hinted of extending a free college education for those who could not qualify as city scholars to provide them chances to earn college degree, especially those coming from the city’s hinterland villages. “Education and health would be the flagship of my incumbency,” Uy said as he disclosed that apart from constructing a city college, new city hospitals would also be constructed.

he said. Asked if there are other industries interested in hiring Filipinos, Fluss said none yet at this point. Department of Migrant Workers Secretary Abdullah D. Mama-o, meanwhile, described the latest deployment as proof that Filipinos are “quality workers”. “I’m glad that Israel recognized the competence of our Filipino workers. The first batch that we are sending will serve also as an example of the workers that we have in the hotel industry,” he said. “This shall encourage the employment of more Filipino workers in the hotel industry,” he added.
