...Land Tenure Group Re: Governance, Transparency, and Social Transformation Though many allegations against the credibility of Vice President (VP) Binay exist, it is the duty of the learned individual to actively scrutinize the contents of his speech without the presence of preconceived notions and biases. In this section, we shall deconstruct VP Binay’s talk on Governance, Transparency, and Social Transformation using two lenses: a noncontextualized view devoid of any prejudgments, and a contextualized view that takes into account the present and circulating rumors about the VP’s credibility. The Noncontextualized View If one should isolate the talk of the vice president and take it for what it is, then without a doubt there will be gems worth noting and treasures worth keeping. Strictly speaking, the talk itself was very enlightening and definitive. The vice president went over the things that are needed for sound governance, and provided relevant examples (i.e. the city of Makati) to better illustrate the point. He also glossed over the problems and pitfalls of the current administration and provided recommendations on what the next administration (viz. a Binay Administration) should implement. The following are the points and details stressed during the forum. First and foremost, VP Binay started by stressing the importance of good track records as necessary qualifications for good governance. It is through these credentials that confidence is built between the governor and...

...Under Noy, RP the most corrupt in Asia SHOOTING STRAIGHT By Bobit Avila (The Freeman) | Updated August 20, 2015 - 12:00am Last year, on May 26, 2014, the big news headlines splashed in our major newspapers and on nationwide television was the report made public by Sen. Teofisto Guingona III where he exposed the names of 20 senators and 100 congressmen, including the names of their alleged agents in the pork barrel transactions that were written in the affidavit of Janet Lim Napoles. Then Sen. Guingona said, “In the spirit of transparency and the search of truth, and in line with my commitment to uphold the public interest, we are going to release to the media and the public and to my fellow senators, the copies of these two affidavits, let the documents speak for itself! ” As we all know now, the Supreme Court granted the petition for bail sought by former Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile who is being held for plunder charges that was featured in the affidavit of Janet Lim Napoles, which Sen. Guingona exposed to the public more than a year ago. The SC imposed a P1 million bail bond for JPE. I reckon that the two other senators incarcerated with JPE, Sen. Jinggoy Estrada and Sen. Bong Revilla, the SC will soon give the same bail conditions to these two senators. I don’t know why the Department of Justice (DoJ) or should we call them the Department of Injustice is foot-dragging on these cases? Lest we forget, there are 20 senators and 100 congressmen implicated by Janet Lim...

...Opening statements[edit] Each candidate was given 60 seconds to deliver their opening remarks.[12] Jejomar Binay highlighted poverty issues and his record as mayor of Makati. Santiago noted that, while the country is rich in natural and human resources, it is one of the poorest in Asia. Duterte promised to eradicate corruption, drugs and crime in six months. Poe promised to allocate 30 percent of the national budget to Mindanao if she were elected, while Roxas compared selecting a president to choosing a bus driver. First round: Track Record[edit] The pairing was determined alphabetically by the participants' surname. Santiago was sorted according to her double surname (Defensor Santiago), and Roxas, the last candidate, is paired with Binay, the first. Binay noted that he has no ill-gotten wealth, having inherited his land assets from his parents. Defensor Santiago rebutted, asking Binay when he got the properties during his term as mayor of Makati. Binay stated that he got these properties during his stint as a legal counsel and through the help of his wife, Elenita Binay, who also served one term as mayor of Makati.[13] Senator Santiago answered that she is still qualified to run for president despite her battle with stage 4 lung cancer, noting that there is no provision in the 1987 Philippine constitution that prohibits a public official from running for health reasons.[14] Duterte did not debate with her during the rebuttal, saying "I don't see Sen. Santiago passing...

...VP Binay to deliver 'true' SONA, says UNA spokesman ABS-CBNnews.com Posted at 07/25/2015 4:33 PM | Updated as of 07/26/2015 12:48 AM MANILA - Vice President Jejomar Binay will deliver his own version of the State of the Nation Address (SONA), a spokesperson of the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) said Saturday. In an interview on dzMM, UNA spokesman Mon Ilagan said Binay will attend President Benigno Aquino III's final SONA on Monday, and use it as basis for his own address to the Filipino people. "Siya ay gagawa po ng hindi po anti-SONA. Ang tawag namin 'True State of the Nation [Address],'" said Ilagan. "Dangan nga lamang hindi pa niya ma-determine kung kailan niya gagawin ang True State of the Nation." Ilagan said the Vice President, in his own version of the SONA, will voice out the grievances of the poor. "Kung ano ang nararamdaman ng maraming naghihirap, nagugutom na Pilipino, yun ang kanyang ire-report, yun ang kanyang babanggitin, but not necessarily para kontrahin. Kaya gusto niya munang mapakinggan muna kung anong sasabihin ng Pangulong Aquino sa kanyang SONA sa darating na Lunes," he said. Binay, who has been going around the country, will also include in his speech the supposed real problems that the people are facing. "Iba yung mga nangyayaring ipini-present na figures ng pamahalaan kumpara doon sa feedback na nakukuha niya at ipinaparating sa kanya lalong-lalo na ng sektor ng mga mahihirap sa usapin ng tinatawag po nating poverty o kahirapan," Ilagan said...

...nowadays, since the months of September and October when the filing of certificates of candidacy for presidency started. According to ABS-CBN News, there were a total of 130 presidential aspirants who officially filed their certificates of candidacy last October 12 to 16, 2015. These aspirants include Vice President Jejomar Binay, Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago, former Interior Secretary Mar Roxas and Senator Grace Poe and the remaining unnamed presidential aspirants were declared as nuisance candidates by the COMELEC. Going back to my first paragraph, as an 18-year old Filipino citizen, I can proudly say that I already have my president in years 2016-2022, and it is none other than, Senator Grace Poe. Hence, I am writing this essay for her and prove that she is the most deserving to sit as our president among all the 2016 Presidential Candidates.

...Children in crime: Cracks in the country's juvenile justice system By: Annie Ruth C. Sabangan, InterAksyon.com Oct.9, 2011..www.interaksyon.com/article/14780/children-in-crime-cracks-in-the-countrys-juvenile-justice-system MANILA, Philippines – How do you make criminals out of children? Put them in areas where they won’t be able to meet their basic needs for food, water, shelter, health care, education and sanitation. Strip them of their rights to develop and maintain a life of dignity so that they’ll grow up uneducated and unemployed. Mire them in places where there is no solution to despair and destitution. In the Philippines, where the plight of majority of the poor remains largely unaddressed, many places become breeding grounds for youth offenders. While many of these children were able to rise from the rut---proving that poverty isn’t a justifiable excuse for committing crime--thousands of other juveniles have failed to get out of the trap and are forced to break the law primarily to survive. At the Center for Restorative Activities Development and Learning Experiences (CRADLE) in Camp Bagong Diwa, Bicutan, Taguig City, most of the 74 male children aged 15 and above who are accused of crimes come from poor families, mostly from depressed areas in Paranaque, Pasig, Muntinlupa, Valenzuela, San Juan, and Malabon. The place is run by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology. “Pinakamaraming kaso ng mga...

...Mayor wants to run town during jail time for slay DIGOS CITY—The Davao del Sur town mayor who is one of the accused in the 2010 murder of journalist Nestor Bedolido is reclaiming his post, saying he is capable of discharging his duties even in detention. Matanao town Mayor Vicente Fernandez on Thursday went straight to his town from the hospital here, where he had been admitted since Oct. 20, after sending a “declaration of resumption of office” to the town council. “In compliance with Section 46 paragraph (b) of Republic Act No. 7160, otherwise known as the Local Government Code of 1991, I am submitting herewith my written declaration for the resumption of office in the Office of the Municipal Mayor effective Nov. 27,” he wrote. Fernandez said his hospitalization due to hypertension and other illnesses was over and he was no longer incapable of discharging his duties as mayor. He said he was taking over from Vice Mayor Elmer Javelona, who was installed as acting mayor two weeks ago. “I am cutting short my temporary leave of absence,” said Fernandez. He said his detention at the Matanao police station would not hinder him from discharging his duties “since the PNP (Philippine National Police) station is just a stone’s throw away from the government center— the municipal hall building.” Fernandez is on trial for a murder charge for Bedolido’s death, along with former Davao del Sur Gov. Douglas Cagas and Cagas’ alleged henchmen, Bado Sanchez and Ali Ordaneza. Cagas is...

...1. The aftermath of Typhoons and monsoon: DepEd oblige schools to do make-up classes after a row of class suspensions last week • A big part of Luzon has been flooded due to southwest monsoon caused by typhoon Falcon last week. The bad weather condition affects schools, colleges and universities in metro manila and in different parts of Luzon that suspends classes for 3 consecutive days. It is to ensure the safety and security of the students. In return, the students will have to compensate all the suspensions with make-up classes to complete the 201 calendar year imposed by DepEd. School division superintendents will be the one to decide what type of make-up classes will they implement. It’s either make-up classes that will fall during weekends, or by simply extending the class hours during weekdays. These make-up classes are effective for both public and private schools. • It is interesting because I can relate to the topic. As a college student, I am personally involved and concerned with the issue and it has a direct effect on me. • I don’t have any negative reaction on this issue since It’s caused by natural calamities and no one wants it to happen, so make-up classes is a good alternative. I think same goes for college students like us. It’s just right to have make-up classes because we’re paying a big amount of money and we will just get nothing in return? So those 3 days is a huge loss for us and we need to take them back through these make-up classes. My other concern...

PNoy started his speech by showcasing the disparity of his administration to that of Pampanga Representative and former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, whereas he mentioned the fertilizer fund scam, the NBN-ZTE anomalous deal, and "Hello Garci" scandal which happened in the previous administration. He then highlighted the major achievements of his 5-year administration under the "Daang Matuwid" thrust, which includes the improved economy and outlook, increased collection of revenues and benefits of his social service programs, including the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) and PhilHealth. One of the more interesting part of his SONA, however, was his veiled swipes at Vice President Jejomar Binay, the standard-bearer of the United Nationalist Alliance (UNA) for next year elections. He answered Binay's previous tirades that his administration is 'manhid' and 'palpak' by highlighting the performance of the PhilHealth under his term. He then questioned UNA’s slogan “Gaganda any Buhay" and pushed for the passage of the Anti-Dynasty Bill, contrary to the proposal of Vice President for term extension and re-election of future presidents. At the end of his speech, the President went into valedictory mode as he thanked almost everybody, including PSGs,...

...Chapter 2 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES Foreign Literature On-job-training is commonly used in tourism and hospitality organizations. With this method, the trainer teaches job skills and knowledge to one trainee, primarily at the work station. Theoretically, it is the best type of training because it incorporates many of the learning and training principles. There are four steps in the individual on-job-training method; Training preparation, Training Presentation, Trainee Practice and Demonstration and Coaching. (Hayes 2008) R. Waryszak (1999) cited that according to Casado in one of the few studies which specifically investigated the perceptions of hospitality students, attempted to identify some of the basic expectations of students recruited by hospitality organisations. He found that students had “fairly realistic” expectations before they graduated. Most students expected to be successful in seeking employment as trainee managers. He concluded that, although the students’ expectations were realistic, the turnover of these students in the hospitality industry seems to be high. There is a probability that recruiting organisations might create false expectations and/or lack adequate induction programs. Waryszak (1999) also quote Barron and Maxwell surveyed three groups of students: first year hospitality management course students; students who returned from their cooperative education placements to complete the course and newly graduated employees from...
