...HEALTH RESEARCH AGENDA SETTING IN REGION 2 Center for Health Development for Cagayan Valley (CHD-CV) Department of Science and Technology (DOST) National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) FOREWORD The current thrust of the Department Of Health conceptualized by no less than the Hon. Secretary Himself, Dr. Francisco T. Duque, III, coined as FOURmulaONE aims to “undertake critical reforms with SPEED, PRECISION and EFFECTIVE COORDINATION directed at improving the efficiency, effectiveness and equity of the Philippine Health System in a manner that is felt and appreciated by the Filipinos, especially the poor”. Now, more than ever, the health of the Filipino people should not be the sole responsibility of DOH through CHD-CV (as initial chair of the Regional R&D Coordinating Council of the consortium) rather the unified efforts of allied agencies/institutions, NGOs and most importantly, the individual himself. Unfortunately, many areas in the country, Region 02 included, have little or no access to information that affect the environment and people’s health. As a consequence, people live their lives without the benefit of some precautions that they may observe in order to safeguard their well-being. It is in this light that through the stewardship of PCHRD, through its Executive Director Jaime C. Montoya and DOST Regional office through Dir. Rustico B. Santos, DOHCHD-CV through Dir. Purita S. Danga and her Asst. Dir.,Dr. Tita N. Callueng; NEDA. Dir Milagros Rimando;...

...THE PROPOSED 200-megawatt coal-fired power plant in Concepcion, Iloilo is on track in time for calls to put up additional electricity sources in the light of the acute power shortage in Mindanao. Iloilo Provincial Administrator Raul N. Banias said he met with top officials of Palm Concepcion Power Corp. (PCPC) in Metro Manila to discuss development status of the proposed coal-fired power plant project. A former mayor of Concepcion, Banias was instrumental in helping DM Consunji, Inc. (DMCI) Power Corp., the original proponent of the plant, in getting public acceptance for the power plant. Although the Department of Environment and Natural Resources already issued and environmental compliance certificate (ECC) to the project sometime in 2007, DMCI did not initiate construction after failing to secure power supple agreements with distribution utilities in Western Visayas. In November 2010, A. Brown Co., Inc. (ABCI), through subsidiaries Palm Thermal Consolidated Holdings Corp. and Panay Consolidated Holdings Corp., bought DMCI Power Corp.’s proposed coal-fired power plant in Concepcion. The new owners then formed subsidiary PCPC to spearhead the future construction and operation of the plant. ABCI is the investment arm of businessman Walter Brown which is primarily engaged in the business of real estate development but has interests in power, property development and investments in other companies. In February 2012, A. Brown announced that it has tapped BDO Capital and Investment...

Platino, Shane Marienette M. “Tourism Development Plan: National Library of the Philippines” – Nation’s Literature’s Shelter Beautification 1 FAR EASTERN UNIVERSITY INSTITUTE OF TOURISM AND HOTEL MANAGEMENT October 2014 Vision and Mission The modernity of National Library of the Philippines tends to adapt to rapid global technological advances and catch up with other modernized libraries elsewhere, and its American style of architecture which upholds the sophistication makes visitors feel like passing through the history since it was established in American colonial period. National Library of the Philippines aims to provide a comfortable learning ambiance for visitors, upgrade most of the facilities to look more authentic, and enhance the creativity of facility design that can seem somehow distinct from other libraries while upholding the historical spirit within its structural design at the same time. “Tourism Development...

...SBFZ ICT PROFILE (For Updating) SUBIC BAY FREEPORT ZONE: ICT HUB LOCATION PROFILE Page 1 SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS (INTERNAL LANDSCAPE) ANALYSIS: CURRENT PRODUCT - SUBIC BAY SPECIAL ECONOMIC AND FREEPORT ZONE Product Features, Benefits, and Appeals Subic Bay Freeport Zone (SBFZ) has a total area of 67, 452 hectares both land and water (water area has a total of 12,350 hectares and a land area of 55, 102 hectares as defined by Proclamation No. 532 of the Subic Special Economic and Freeport Zone SSEFZ) Metes and Bound. It is comprised by the City of Olongapo, Subic Town, San Antonio in Zambales and the former US Naval Reservation. The earliest predecessor to the USFAC Subic Bay was an un finished Spanish Naval Station, acquired by the U. S. in 1898, following the Spanish American War. During World War II, most of the original station was destroyed by American rear guard action and aircraft bombing attacks. Following World War II and the achievement of Philippine independence, a decision was made to establish a U. S. Naval Base at Subic Bay. Substantial construction efforts were begun and accelerated during the Korean Conflict, resulting in the establishment of the U. S. Naval Base, Subic Bay, in 1954. Much of the area now occupied by the Freeport was previously occupied by the City of Olongapo. At that time, the Commander of the Naval Base was also in control of the City of Olongapo. During the Vietnam Conflict, construction of the facilities was again accelerated, and...

D E C I S I O N Amellar Corporation (respondent) provides information technology services to local government units (LGUs) including computerizing their system and operations. In October 1999, respondent hired petitioner Anabel Benjamin (Anabel) who, since March 26, 2001, was the Project Data Controller of its Content Build Up (CBU) Department. The CBU Department of respondent collates and cleanses all the paper data gathered from the LGU-client which are then encoded and fed into the designed operating system. As the most senior member of the department, Anabel was its officer-in-charge. From 2002 to 2003, she administered the CBU functions of respondent's projects in Imus, Cavite and Mabini, Batangas.[1] Petitioner Renato Consolacion (Consolacion), a supervising data controller in respondent's Imus project, directly reported to Anabel.[2] By letter of March 20, 2003, the municipal assessor of Mabini, Batangas informed the manager of respondent that its real property tax administration database was not "100% complete," contrary to the report of respondent's supervising data controller Evangeline Repiano (Evangeline).[3] Melvin Tandoc (Tandoc), respondent's Technology Manager, thus sent Anabel a memorandum of March 27, 2003 reading: This is the first written complaint of such nature that we have received from our client.
