Sona 2013 Evaluation
We all know that April 22, 2013 is a much awaited event for us Filipino citizens.
On this day, we are about to witness the 4th SONA of our honorable President Benigno Aquino III or President Noynoy. Aside from us who are waiting for his statement, the rallyists were also there to express their complaints pertaining to the result of his leadership in the last 3 years.

If you are going to ask me, based on my opinion it was pretty good. In the field of health matters, Sin tax law and RH bill were already laws. Based on PNOY’s statement, in the year 2013, almost P33B were given for the construction, repair and rehabilitation of 4518 hospitals. There was also a Regional Hospital at Tagum City, Davao. This is the first cancer center to be built at the outer part of Manila. On the same said date, 5 kido the patients at the Medical Center of Dagupan. Philhealth includes the coronary bypass and Heart surgeries.

On the other hand, there will be a free education for all the students who are not that fortunate to continue their studies on secondary education. President Noynoy believes that if they are at least high school graduate they may have a better job in the future. There is also an increase in the quality on higher education.

Base on what I have heard, the number of tourism here in the Philippines increases. Pres. Noynoy also includes the ongoing process of giving of the land titles of the Hacienda Luisita to its beneficiaries. Last 2012, Php 54.48B was given for the pension. This year P61.29B is the appropriate fund for the pension of the Police, it will increase up to P80.64B by the year 2016.
Through the help of the government & private sector, 9377 households were given to the victims of typhoon Sendong. Moving out more than 19,400 families who were living under the bridge is also became their priority
Many of our fellow citizens are not yet contented of Mr. President’s work. Maybe because they’re thinking that he doesn’t fit in that

    The current education system strongly presses the case for high schoolers to go to college. Rarely, however, does it explore other options for kids who aren’t college-oriented. While it is true that globalization means high-paying manufacturing jobs are not a major career option in the United States, many skilled trade and technical fields are experiencing a shortage of workers. During his 2011 State of the Union Address, President Barack Obama said, “This can be community college or a four year school, vocational training, or an apprenticeship. But whatever the training may be, every American will need to get more than a high school diploma.” (Source C). While Obama does say every American will need more than a high school diploma, he doesn’t argue that every American needs to go to college. That is because every American doesn’t need to go to college. Plenty of skilled trade jobs pay just as well or even better than some jobs only available to those with degrees. Not all students should go to college because college isn’t the only way to get a good job outside of high…

    All children are required to graduate high school, but pursuing higher education is only recommended. While high school curriculum is designed to prepare students for higher education, students learn essential career readiness skills while enrolling in higher education classes. Since students are not obliged to pursue higher education, many students who decide not to continue their education lack the skills necessary for future careers. While some schools hope to implement career readiness for either all their students or for only the students who do not wish to pursue college, other schools do not want to offer career readiness programs as they believe that it offers incentives for students not to attend college. Schools should require all students to take career readiness classes as…

    Some of the newest controversy in the United States is whether college tuition should have a price tag or not. Not everybody knows what free in this scenario means.

    Even though I have been employed more than once, I do not recall ever receiving an actual performance evaluation experience. Most of the time I would either get an appraisal or a complaint by my fellow coworkers or supervisor. During my employments in the hospital, I only worked there for a couple of months. Despite having worked at a private practice for a year and a half, I never received a performance evaluation experience. However, as a student, I have undergone performance evaluation experiences while participating in some of the SONA studies. As a student taking psychology courses, it is my duty to participate in the SONA studies due to specific requirements in my courses or for extra credit in the course. Most of the surveys are formatted…

    The level of education that a person has will have a great impact on what options they will have later on in life. An individual with an education and a degree will have more options for a better job as opposed to one who has only attained a high school degree. A person’s future is more guaranteed when he or she is educated. They can be anything in life if they are educated. Without education a person’s aspirations in life could be limited.

    All Americans have the right to believe whether free college education is a good idea or not, but we have to have in mind that it would help the future generations ahead of us, it would not only help economically but morally .

That’s what the U.S is supposed to be about, however the mobility between poor and middle has been eroding, and if there is not affordable access to higher education, the intelligence and the goodwill of the whole country may as well erode. America may…

    As for other large tracts of land: We have long tasked the DAR, DENR, LRA, and Land Bank to develop a framework for speeding up the parceling out of land. I would like to remind everyone: Correct data is the first step to the orderly implementation of CARPER. But we inherited a defective sistema ng mga tala ng lupa. This is why, from the start, the DOJ, LRA, DENR, and DAR have worked to fix this system, and now we are at a point where we can guarantee that in the next year, all puna ng panaklob will have been served for lands covered by comprehensive agrarian reform.
