The Philippine government takes it seriously. They have devoted significant resources to build disaster capacity and reduce population exposure and vulnerability, nationality and locality. Filipinos must conduct disaster risk reduction management. Filipinos should be ready. Measuring resilience at the community level is advantageous. Communities have a unique understanding of the factors that contribute to their ability to resist, absorb and recover from disturbances as well as a direct understanding of the risks that they face.

Filipino ang Wika ng Saliksik!

Ipinagdidiwang ng mga Pilipino ang Buwan ng Wika para sa taong 2018. May temang, "Filipino: Wika ng Saliksik." Ang pananaliksik ay ang proseso ng pangangalap ng mga totoong impormasyon na humahantong sa kaalaman. Ang tema ay kumikilala sa wikang Filipino bilang midyum sa paglikha at pagpapalaganap ng pambansang karunungan at kaunlaran. Sa pamamagitan nito, mapapalaganap ang wikang Filipino sa iba't ibang larangan ng karunungan, lalo na sa agham at matematika.

Ito ay mayroong layuning magudyok ng iba't-ibang pampublikong at pribadong ahensiya na makisama sa mga pangyayaring tulad nito na nararagdagan ang wikang pampamayanan at kamalayan. Ito rin ay naglalayung hikayatin ang mga Pilipino na bigyang importansya ang ating pambansang wika sa pamamagitan ng pagiging aktibo sa mga gawaing gagawin sa selebrasyong ito.

Kaya't halina't magipag-koopera at mas lalong mahalin ang ating wika!

President Duterte's Third SONA

Years passed by, and the State of the Nation Address(SONA) is still going on. It is an annual address by the leader to a joint session. SONA is often broadcast. It serves as a means to inform the nation about its present economic, political, and social condition. It is also a vehicle for the President to summarize the accomplishments and plans of the leader's program. July 23, 2018, the day that President Rodrigo Duterte delivered his 3rd SONA in which he mentioned several points that are important to every Filipino, he also tackled about the problems that our country is facing.

President Duterte talked about the Corruptions, Drug war, Human Rights, Marawi Siege and the Opportunities for Coconut Farmers. He also mentioned about the Shift to federalism in Terms of Governance, Tax reformation and Constractualization, he even criticized Vice President Leni Robredo. And with this, Filipinos are complaining on what they've heard, on what they always hear, hearing those overused words and phrases. Filipinos are tired of it, but they can't help but to still participate. Others are hopeful.

We shouldn't complain on what we hear because SONA should be taken seriously. We should remember that we won't hear the same things if it isn't important. So let's help each other for the best and to find solutions with this problems.
