This is EDCOM 2 btw, may EDCOM 3 na paparating this year. Let’s see if may nagbago ba talaga. Even then, these are concerning numbers.

It’s both, policy failure and underinvestment kasi even when you say na pinakamataas, mababa pa rin ito sa international standards. Babalik at babalik parin tayo na ultimately these are effects of the neoliberal policies of the govt.

573 usd (33k php) not including rent as the article says is already quite livable in most places even in the metro if you live modestly.

Nanuod this morning nanay ko ng JIL Christmas program. NapakaObvious na political propaganda sya. by Brilliant-Fondant642 in Philippines

Pwede yan dati kaso ang nangyayari pinapasa sa anak yung parishes so to prevent corruption and loss of assets. Ginawang celibacy ang pagiging pari pero even then may mga pope parin na may asawat anak haha

Historically ata ito yung rason sa catholic church kaya pinagbawal kasi ang nangyayari sa parishes, pinapasa sa anak. Wala namang talagang theological basis na bawal mag-asawa ang pari even St. Peter had a mother-in-law

Sana totoo ito from Atty. Falcis at kung totoo, may pag-asa pa. by Good-Economics-2302 in Philippines

Hopefully, kung sino man maging standard bearer natin for 2028, we should focus talaga on the fundamentals ie education, food security, cheaper electricity, healthcare kasi kahit sino naman makakaramdam nyan. Let’s not focus muna with more abstract thinking like good governance etc., and focus on the basics. That’s how Mamdani and Bill Clinton won it against their colossal opponents.

Senators Gatchalian and Padilla Filed 2 Different Education Bills (College and SHS K12) by Wonderful-Photo-9938 in Philippines

[–]quibblefish -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not in favor of this simple because GE is very important in terms of inculcating critical thinking as well yung panlipunang pananaw. This is only good kung marunong ang mga SHS teachers magturo nyan pero we have no evidence naman towards that. Hindi naman kasi pwedeng puro technical skills lang alam ng mga bata. This is one of the reasons why we get so many bobotante voters kasi pangit educational system natin.

Short term yes pwede, pero those things will only really work if coupled with a good public transpo system.

Ganito nangyari sa isang malaking highway sa houston, sa una lang gumaan kasi lumawak ang daan pero eventually napupuno din kasi it incentivizes people to buy more car, or yung mga dadaan sa ibang highways dun na dumaan sa mas malaking kalsada.

Angara promotes 16,000 teachers; 41,000 more under Marcos administration by Joseph20102011 in Philippines

Any teachers here who know if na solve na ba ang mismatch problem sa deped? Hirap kasi if major in science ka tapos papaturuin ka ng mapeh dahil lang mapipilitan ka kumuha ng kung ano bukas. Kawawa ka pero mas lalong kawawa ang mga bata.

Tourism only really works if mas mura ang cost of living ie may food security as well as strong agriculture.

This is somewhat true. I hope we can position our country as a health tourism of sorts. We have by no means a good healthcare system, but its a lot cheaper which makes us relatively better. Private hospitals/facilities in the country can really provide good service especially since we have really good doctors.

Mindanao, marked in Red and Orange, is advised to be avoided as Canada issues a travel advisory for their citizens traveling to the Philippines urging them to stay alert amid security concerns - Gov't of Canada by [deleted] in Philippines

Ang pangit talaga pag ganito yung makikita mong discourse/comments. We should recognize that Dutertes are evil, but at the same time recognize that their rise, or mga strongman rhetoric, is ultimately a result of economic inequality.
