How to enhance the PHILIPPINES :)

1.     Department of Agrarian reform:

Because of today’s El Nino, farmers are having a hard time growing their crops because of the lack of water and too much sunlight. I think that planning is a good way of figuring out what crops are good to plant during this type of weather. Programs concerning the method of planting crops can be easily run by the cabinet members. Strip cropping and fallowing are 2 of the ways people can help farmers. Organic fertilizers can also be used to help the crops grow quicker.

2.     Department of Education:

There are a lot of children that are in the streets. According to the 1998 report, there are about 1.5 million street children in our country 70% of which are boys. Because of this, the government should build more schools for these children so that they could learn and get a good job when they are older. The government should also give a higher salary to the teachers. The current salary of the teachers in our country today is around 216,000 per year and only 18,000 per month. So, if the government increases the salary, the teachers would be engaged to work because of the high salary. 

3.     Department of Transportation and Communication:

I want to focus more on the MRTs and the LRTs because this is the most common used mode of transportation publicly. The current problems these trains are facing today are that the carriages always get broken and there are always long lines because of the small amount of carriages to ride in. I suggest that first, the government should figure out a way to upgrade the train system so that they don’t break so often. And second, they should build more of the upgraded trains. I think that they should talk to the prime minister of Singapore about how to enhance the trains we have today and how to estimate the number of trains so that we have enough for Metro Manila’s population.

Kung maybuhay ang mga puno

Ang mga puno ng mangga, bayabas at kaymito ay may masasarap na bunga. Ang mangga ay masarap kapag hinog na. Ang Bayabas ay malakas a Vitamin C. At ang Kaymito ay tinatawag ng mga tao na morada. Ngunit, naisip niyo na kung, nagsasalita ang mga ito, ano kaya ang mga sasabihin nila sa mga tao upang patuloy silang makapagbigay ng saganang bunga sa mga susunod pang henerasyon?

Sa tingin ko ang mangga, dahil isa itong matamis na prutas ay makakatulong siya sa pagpapalaki ng mga batang malambing at mahinhin. Mabait siya sa mga tao at palagi niyang pinapalala na mahalin ang isat’ isa lalo na ang mga bata dahil sila ang magpapalaki at magpapabuti sa ating populasyon.

Ang lasa naman ng bayabas ay medyo mapakla

Masdan mo ang Kapaligiran - By Asin

Our country's environment before was very beautiful. The seas were bright blue, the air was fresh, the mountains were greener than usual and there were a lot of green plains to play on.. But because we have so many buildings built on these plains, the beautiful and fresh Philippines was blown away. Many people haven't noticed that we had a beautiful country but because of so many people doing harmful stuff to the environment, we now have a polluted city and only 6 million hectares of our country's total forest area have actual forest covers.

Because of the awful doings of the people to the environment, composers have tried to point out to the population that we should take care of the environment. Just like the song "Masdan mo and Kapaligiran" By Asin. This song has caught my attention and she pointed out the consequences if we don't take care of our country.

While I was listening to the song, a line from it caught my attention. That line was "Ang mga batang ngayon lang isinilang, may mga hangin pa kayang matitikman?" It made me think about the children. Are they gonna be able to still smell the fresh air? Or are they just going to add to the number of people that don't care about the environment?

For me, I want the children to see a great place when they grow up. A place with fresh air, mountainous regions and a place that they will love and take care of. Hopefully we can bring back the beauty of our country by working together in harmony.
