PSA data released on Wednesday showed that the producer price index (PPI) for manufacturing posted an annual increase of 2.6 percent in March, a slowdown from the 3.6 percent increment recorded

energy cooperation.

This is after the DOE awarded three service contracts to Danish firm Copenhagen Infrastructure New Markets Fund (CINMF) to develop offshore wind power projects in the country worth $5 billion.

“The visit also showed international interest for supporting the education of Filipino technicians for renewable energy jobs in the Philippines and internationally —where they could play a key role in making the global energy transition possible,” Mellbin added.

Lotilla also met with Danish Permanent Secretary of State for Climate, Energy and Utilities during his visit in Denmark last week.

The two officials agreed to work on a possible memorandum of understanding on energy sector.

Denmark is one of the global leaders in renewable energy and among the lead providers of technologies to help in climate change mitigation.

In less than a year of the

Marcos administration, two Danish firms have invested in the Philippines for offshore wind projects. These are the CINMF, which is the first fully foreign-owned company that invested in the country’s renewable energy sector, and the Copenhagen Energy. Their combined offshore wind capacity is at 6 gigawatts.

A Story of a Dream Maker

By Alma Lacostales Calibo, EdD Teacher III

Lanao del Norte National Comprehensive High

Once upon a time, in a magical world beyond the clouds, there lived a dream maker named Micah. She had the power to create dreams and make them come true. Micah was a beautiful woman with long, flowing hair and sparkling eyes that shone like the stars.

Micah lived in a castle made of clouds where she spent most of her days weaving beautiful dreams for people all around the world. Her castle was filled with colorful clouds, and every room had a unique atmosphere. In one room, there were soft, fluffy clouds that made you feel like you were floating, while in another room, there were bright, vibrant clouds that made you feel energized.

People from all corners of the world would come to Micah's castle to ask for their dreams to come true. Some wanted to be famous actors or singers, while others wanted to find true love. Micah would listen to their dreams carefully and then weave a dream specially designed for them.

One day, a little girl named Maria came to Micah's castle with tears in her eyes. Maria told Micah that she had a dream of becoming a ballerina, but her parents didn't support her dream, and she didn't have the money for lessons.

Micah smiled at Maria and promised to make her dream come true. That night, Maria had the most beautiful dream she had ever had. She dreamed of dancing in a grand theater, with a spotlight shining on her as she twirled and leaped gracefully across the stage. When she woke up the next morning, Maria felt more determined than ever to make her dream a reality.

With Micah's help, Maria was able to find a scholarship for ballet lessons and worked tirelessly to improve her skills. Years later, Maria became a professional ballerina and performed in some of the most prestigious theaters in the world. She never forgot the dream that Micah had given her, and she was grateful every day for the dream maker who had made her dreams come true.

And so, Micah continued to weave dreams for people all around the world, spreading happiness and hope wherever she went. She knew that dreams had the power to change lives and that she had been blessed with a special gift to help make those dreams come true. And with each dream she created, Micah knew that the world was becoming a better and happier place.

CHILDREN who wish to succeed in academe (or whose parents wish them to do so) may need to start competing at a very young age for places in prestigious schools. To be accepted at a renowned university, one needs to have attended a prominent secondary school. To be accepted at that secondary school, one needs to have attended a good elementary school. To be accepted at that elementary school, one needs to have attended kindergarten that adequately prepares children for rigorous study.

In a society in which the highest paid and most prestigious jobs almost always go to graduates of certain universities, the position one holds at age 60 may have less to do with one’s performance when 40 or 50 years old than it does with one’s ability to pass examinations at four or five years old. With the future of their children at stake, parents push their children young as two or three to achieve high results. Schools develop curricula to meet these demands. Textbook publishers take advantages of these favorable market conditions. Both schools and business encourage competition as selection criteria. All this results in an increased level of stress for children from preschool age through university. mc eubhunz indoor shooting range and gun club association Inc.
