K+12 Basic Education in Philippines

I am also thinking of solution on how to minimize unemployment in the Philippines. It comes to my mind many years ago to add two years in our basic education just like in other countries in Asia and America.

Among the Asian countries, only the Philippines has 10 years basic education. We can not say that those products of 10 years basic education are non-competitive. However, in the competitive world we need to find alternatives to compete.

Year and year after, the unemployment is increasing while the quality of human resources that we have is like deteriorating. Instead we study, learn and train for the benefit of our country we do it in favor of other countries who paid high to our human resources. Other Asian countries like Thailand, Taiwan and Korean, they study here in our country to be applied in their country whatever they learned from here. In contrast we Filipinos, study, learned and trained our people to apply their knowledge and skills to other countries.

Here comes the additional two (2) years of our basic education, do you think this is the solution of our incompetent to manipulative skills? Though unemployment will be minimize since many teachers will be hired but then parents will clamor for the burden of supporting their children for two more years. Legally, children under 18 years old are still under the custody of their parents. Therefore, if they reach college, they are independent.

Let us be more practical and realistic. We send out our children to work even they still minor.  Our parents are violating the child labor law. Some cases, they get pregnant.

Therefore, we need to add two more years, in which to prepare our high school graduates ready for work. They will be trained of skills that they don't need to go to vocational institutions or colleges.

Is the Ethanol Plant in San Carlos City, Negros Occidental, Philippines will be Closed?

According to my source, the Ethanol Plant in San Carlos City, Negros Occidental, Philippines will be closed because of mismanagement.

As far as I know that plant is partly owned by the Philippine government and how come it will come to an end? I presumed that it will help minimize oil crisis in the Philippines when it comes to fuel consumption. Five percent of the fuel content is come from ethanol that makes up a "Biodiesel" fuel. This will help also minimize air pollution. In some fuel station, they are already serving "Biodiesel" as compliant to the law passed by Honorable Senator Miguel Zubiri. 

I have met one person who work in the Ethanol Plant in San Carlos. He said that they are producing lead-free fuel. He added that aside from ethanol, they also produce alcohol for food and beverages. This means they are competing other alcohol distillery plant. They manufacture alcohol but not solely for fuel consumption. How could it help minimize fuel crisis, hence the supply is scarce?

The factory worker I met said that the known politicians in San Carlos City are so influential. In sugar mill,  like in Victorias Milling Company where he came from as his previous workplace, cane holders should be served in "first come first serve" basis. But in the Ethanol Plant in San Carlos is not. The big "hacienderos" who are politician in the place will threat the miller not to have their sugarcance milled in that plant if they will not be served first though there are many sugarcane owners who are also in the line up. This politician is also a law maker in the country. Why is it that he has this kind of attitude? He is supposed to patronize the factory in his city.

We can not deny the fact that sugar mills offer high incentives and benefits to sugarcane owners compare to that of the Ethanol Plant. In addition to this, sugar prices are also competitive reaching up to Two Thousand Five Hundred Pesos (P2,500.00) per 50 kilogram bag.

What will be the alternative of our government in order to sustain cheap and renewable energy?

This employee I met, suggested that the law maker [congressmen], [including this influential politician in San Carlos City] should pass a law subsidizing the ethanol manufacturer in the Philippines for fuel consumption. Just like in Negros Occidental being the sugar capital in the country there are many big sugarcane fields owned by single person. Some of them are politician also. It should be mandated by law that in excess of certain tonnage for sugar products be milled for ethanol. Or a percentage per tonnage set upon the law as required for sugar products be converted to ethanol product. Say for example, 5% of the excess of 100 tons sugarcane should be transported to Ethanol Plant for energy consumption.

The solution to fuel crisis is at hand. It is functioning. But the problem is how to sustain. It is not enough to establish an ethanol plant for fuel consumption but how it should be maintained? These are business enterprise and highly competitive not only in national setting but most of all globally. Since, everybody is using oil as source of energy.

Nevertheless, we are still in process of development. I hope this will be address by our government especially the legislator of country.

Give the good efforts and get the nice results.

The priority of a man from work is to rest properly at exact time. But if they are working overtime give them overtime pay. Allow them to go home early.
