CTU extends their support through extensions services forum and festival

As the sun started to rise, dozens of people surged towards the gate waiting beside to join the extensions services. They walked unto the pavement of the school to search the lecture and demonstration being done by different teachers. They were after about the learning and engaging new knowledge.

Welcome to Cebu Technological University, the university that helps all people.

If anyone wants to know what public service means- and the enormous task ahead- they could do something better in implementing outreach program in different places in the country. One of the women who attended there, who gave her name as Anna, said she tried to have a business on what she could make. “panahon na gyud ning magkat on para maka negosyo ko”(this is now the time that we can learn how to do business).

Of today's population, the number of individuals increased which resulted to the increasing demand of daily needs. Number of ways have been taken to find techniques on how to lessen poverty in the society.

Cebu Technological University had indeed made support the circumstances that the public have had by having an extension program for everybody. They considered people as a frontline of the society and must be given attention by giving them an idea on how to make their lives be better in the coming days.

The population had decreased this year than the last year. Most of them were pregnant mothers, young children, students and adults coming from different communities.

Trade technology. According to Mrs. Elsa Malabar, one of the demonstrators of CTU main said they need to help other people because it is their obligation. “as a teacher, we have to share because it is a part of our function and job that is why it is called extension” she said.

Dr. Wilma C. Giango also mentioned the major mission of their demonstration that is to promote and share their learnings to people that has eagerness to learn.

The whole morning session was all about Moringa or horse raddish. Transforming this miracle tree into different food and drink.

People got interested about the basic digital photography of Dr. Rey Rojas. They gained information, lots of information. “you can imagine a scene in your mind that you like and you can take pictures as u want” he said.

After he said that, i went back to my seat to observe the whole demonstration and found out that the demonstrators really did their very best and promoted several practices and behaviors to assure audience to stay alert.

And their major concern was to lecture and to listen the questions of the audience and to addressed a response to everyone.

Before the extension services, many people did'nt have the idea of what thing they would do to uplift their lives from necessity but when CTU introduced the 2^nd EXTENSIONS SERVICES FORUM, the audience already had something on their mind to bring up their lives.

There are some evidences of social change. The Extension forum becomes popular due to its effectiveness in the society and its sustainable affection to the people as well as the individuals through successful services that changes the lives of many people in the society.

This story holds the real view and the real side between the people, students and the university itself. Starting with the approach to technology that is concerned with the lives of the community as a whole. Public service is a community service.

Ang Kanding ug Ang Pag- Asenso

Ang pagpamuhi ug kanding usa sa mga labing importanting bahin sa mga smallholder agriculture dinhi sa Pilipinas. Kini gipakita nga adunay 99% sa mga kanding dinhi sa nasud nga ang mga tag- iya kay mga gamay’ng mag-uuma. Pero, ang mga produkto nga nakuha sa mga gagmay’ng mag-uuma sa pagpamuhi ug kanding kay wala gipamaligya, sama sa gatas ug karne. Ang kanding makahatag ug makatabang sa nutrisyun sa mga rural farm nga mga pamilya ug makalambu sa pagpuyo sa mga kabus.

Adunay 305, 920 ang populasyun sa mga kanding dinhi sa Central Visayas. Kadaghanan sa mga kanding gi-atiman sa mga gagmay’ng mag-uuma sa rural nga dapit. Hangtod 99% sa mga pamilya adunay plano sa pagsustiner sa ilang gasto sa panimalay ginamit ang pagpamuhi ug kanding.

Ang Cebu Breeding Station mauy usa sa mga ‘’Goat Farm” dinhi sa Sugbo. Usa sa nitrabaho didto mao si Manong Felix misulti nga dako kaayo ang natabang sa iyahang pamilya ang pagtrabaho sa Cebu Breeding Station. “Gihatagan man gud ko nila ug kanding ug sa hinay- hinay milambo ang among kinabuhi”. Tuig 2000, ang pamilyang Gusa nakasinati ug problema bahin sa kwarta. Magsige lang gyud siya ug trabaho bisan asa pero kuwang gihapon ang ilang “income”. Dili usab sila makadali- dali ug palit sa ilang panginahanglan apan karon, nakapalit na sila ug appliances.

Produksyun. Ang kanding kay importante sa tao tungod sa gatas ug karne nga iyang mahatag. Dugay na ang panahon sa pagpamuhi ug kanding pero gabaliwala ra kini karon. Ang ilang paglambo mao unta’y labing importanting implikasyun para sa “livestock production”. Ang demand sa industriya sa kanding kay padayong mitaas hangtod karong panahona ilabi na karon na gamay nalang ang namaligya niini.

Matud pa ni Antonio Del Socorro, DAR Officer kaniadto sa Cebu, nga daghan kaayo ug mahimo ang kanding. “Goats, being small animals are commonly known as “poor man’s cow” kay their upkeep entails only a small initial investment and a correspondingly small risk of loss. This makes goat farming an attractive proposition for household because goats are small, both women and children can conveniently look after them. Unya, gamay ra pud ang magamit nga space para sa ilang puluy- anan.

Daghan na ang nagkagusto sa pagpamuhi ug kanding niining panahona. Usa na niana si Manong Felix ug ang iyahang mga katrabaho.

Kausaban. Gidawat gyud sa pamilyang Gusa ang pagpamuhi ug kanding ug nahimo na nila kining buhatunon sa panimalay. Nausab usab ang ilang dagan sa panimuyo kini tungod sa pagdawat sa mga sirkumstansya nga mahitabo kanila adlaw- adlaw. Apan aduna usab sila’y kakuli-an ug mga problema nga muabot. Sama sa oras. Maglisud sila ug tunga sa ilang oras kung magkasakit ang ilang hayupan ug uban pa.

Sa laing bahin, tungod sa pagtukod ug mga establisimento sa “livestock market” sa tibo-uk nasud, sayun nakaayo ang pagbaligya ni Manong Felix sa mga karne diretsu sa “livestock market”. Ug sayun nausab nila ang pagkuha ug kwarta para magamit nila adlaw- adlaw. “Dako jud kaayo ang natabang ang pagpamuhi ug kanding kay dali ra kaayo kini musanay ug wala kay magasto nga dinagko” ang malipayong pulong ni Manong Felix. Dili na usa sila mupalit ug gatas nga makatabang malnutrisyun ug mga karne. Ang karne mao’y gigamit ni Manang Luisa sa pag luto ug caldereta, paklay ug asadong kanding para ibaligya sa Mercado ug tungod niini maka kwarta napud sila.

Aduna pa’y laing ebidensya sa mga kalambu-an mahitungud sa pagmamuhi ug kanding. Tungod sa kadaghang mahimo sa kanding epiktibo kini kanatong tanan nga makahatag ug kabaghu-an sa atong pagpuyo.

Si Manang Luisa, asawa ni Manong Felix, mipasabot kanako nga kinahanglan gyud ang kakugi sa pagpamuhi ug mga hayupan.

Ang istorya niining artikulo nagtangag ug tinud- anay nga replica sa atong kinabuhi. Kung wala kita’y kakugi, wala usab kita’y maani ugma damlag. Kinahanglan gyud magsugod gyud kita sa atong kaugalingon ug hinay- hinay ‘tang mabag-o.

Nagsugod sa pag antos ug karon nagsugod na sa paglambo.

The Sugat religious festival in Minglanilla is one of the biggest events for the town and Minglanilla is known to be the Capital of the south of the Sugat festival throughout the Philippines. Its an annual festival and its on today! I went this morning to grab a couple of photos and will head back around 1pm when the street dancing starts. Already this morning there has been some activities involving the gay community dancing and water buffalo race ( Carabao). The event started around 8am this morning and likely to be ongoing until 7pm tonight so if your in Cebu and looking for something to do the event is running all day. Might see you there. There is different activities running throughout the day some a bit bizarre such as gay mud volleyball. But its the Philippines always something different going on to keep people entertained.

A Critical Essay on President Aquino’s SONA

People shouted happily when Gloria Macapagal Arroyo stepped out in Malacañang Palace after Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III won the presidency in the May 10 elections. Many people attended the proclamation of the newly elected president in the Quirino Grandstand Quezon City, Manila. Almost all people nationwide were amazed in his speech with regards to the country’s major and minor problems.

People had already reacted P-Noy before he was elected in May 10, 2010. They believed that P-Noy’s administration will give them a better living in 6 years sitting in Malacañang. They fight for the increase of wages and more jobs the country. We already shouted our needs and wants to the new administration by protesting.

As P-Noy delivered his first speech in State of the Nation Address (SONA), people gained knowledge about the litany of problems, primarily corruption and the depletion of funds, left by Arroyo. We were greatly affected by Arroyo’s administration because she didn’t hold responsibilities to take care the nation’s welfare. For that, so many reactions between us excelled.

The State of the Nation Address (SONA) of President Aquino pointed out the problems of the former administration in which he corrected and opened the eyes of some government leaders to walk in the right path towards progress.

He made promises to solve the corruption in our country, the changes in government and the creation of private and public partnerships which gives us hope to uplift our economy and our country.

His speech made us brave to fight the things that we want to assert and made us strong to stop the things that had happened to us lately in Arroyo’s reign. We already knew what is wrong but the fact is we ignored it.

According to Sun Star Cebu, President Benigno Aquino III’s appeal for local governments to streamline processes, like the issuance of business permits, gained approval of Cebu’s business and government circles. Filipino-Cebuano Business Club Inc. (FCBI) President Rey Calooy, in a text message said a streamlined process will help small and medium enterprises (SMEs) cut the costs of doing business. “The simpler the processes, the more new investments will come” Mandaue of Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI) President Eric Mendoza said.

P-Noy made some future plans for the countrymen like increasing the ten years of education for students to twelve years of education due to the country’s problem in educational roots (handling computers and English speaking). The most important is the negotiation between the country’s government and Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) for peace.

The nation hopes P-Noy to take a stand in his first speech in SONA.
