IMPACTS OF AQUASILVI PROJECT OF JBLFMU-MOLO AND BFAR TO ITS CONSTITUENTS AT NUEVA VALENCIA GUIMARAS, PHILIPPINES

Engr. Dr. Rolando A. Alimen, FRIMECollege Instructor and Research CoordinatorJohn B. Lacson Foundation Maritime University-Molo, Iloilo City

Abstract

This study determined the impact of Aquasilvi project among its constituents in Nueva Valencia, Guimaras. This project was a joint - activity of JBLFMU-Molo and BFAR with the purpose of helping the residents of Nueva Valencia, Guimaras. The participants in this study were the eighteen (18) recipients of the project. This study employed quantitative-qualitative research design by Creswell (2013). The quantitative - statistical tools used in this study were frequency count, percentage, and rank. On the "qualitative method," the "open-ended questions" were utilized to gather necessary statements, comments, and experiences of the recipients regarding the impact and influences of the project. The open-ended approach allows the subject to answer from their own frame of reference rather than from one structured by pre-arranged questons, getting the subjects to freely express their thought around particular topics (Bogdan, R.C, & Biklen, S.K. (2013). Results reveal the following impact and influences: (1) the Aquasilvi was a big help to the recipients' life because the number of fish increased in the mangrove area, (2) it helps the people in the community by providing an additional livelihood to the people, (3) there is a big impact especially the mangrove rehabilitation project, (4) it helps to conserve and protect the wealth of the sea among the people living at the coastal area, where they get their daily needs as this project helped the local to earn extra income, and (5) to the members, it is a big help because planting the mangroves in the area can protect the locals from big waves and storms.

THE LIFE OF 4PS BENEFICIARIES STUDYING AT NIPSC CC WHO ARE CHILDREN OF FISHERMEN IN CONCEPCION, ILOILO, PHILIPPINES

Dr. Maribelle E. Arib, FRIEdrAssociate DirectorInternal Qualiy Assurance of Northern Iloilo Polytechnic State College

Abstract

This study presents the life experiences of the 4Ps (Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program) beneficiaries who were granted the ESGP-PA (Expanded Students Grants-in-Aid Program for Poverty Alleviation) while studying at NIPSC CC and children of fisherman. This research used the qualitative research specifically, phenomenological methods which utilized narrative inquiry and in-depth interview with the nine identified participants. They manifested in their responses that before the ESGP-

PA, they thought they couldn't proceed to college thus, some quitted school and worked to earn to help their respective family. They speculated that they can never come out from poverty, yet, they still hold that little spark of hope that their life will someday improve. Since the participants witnessed the difficulties and sacrifices of their parents, they helped their father to fish in the sea while attending school. Several times, they couldn't help but attend classes late and other times, be absent. When they first heard of the program, they thought it was another government promise which is meant to be broken. When ESGP-PA was finally implemented, their once obscured situation and vision in life turned vivid. The participants became more diligent in their studies and their simple dreams in life soared. Because they were used to live in scarcity and contentment in simple living, they now can help in their household expenses and school needs of their younger siblings and even of some relatives an friends. Difficulties still come in their lives but they are now much stronger in their belief that they can overcome any obstacle. Their llife experiences can be associated with "Affirmative Action" of other countries and "Altruism Theory".

THE INFLUENCE OF PARTICIPATORY ARTS TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION AND PROTECTION IN AN ISLAND COMMUNITY

RESEARCH PAPER PRESENTATIONS


Dr. Razel Matilde I. Dalida, FRIEdr, FRIMsnChairIntellectual Property Rights Office

Culturan CoordinatorCollege of FIsheries and Marine Science,Aklan State University

Abstract

This study describes how participatory arts can foster environmental conservation and protection in an island community of Isla Kapispisan (I.K.), Barangay Pinamuk-an, New Washington, Aklan, Philippines. Data were gathered from field surveys and results revealed the following environmental and socio-cultural factors of I.K.: (a) I.K. is mainly comprised of male residents and mostly in their 40s; (b) I.K. can only be reached by means of riding on a motor banca. I.K. residents have limited access to mainland where basic goods and services are normally availed; (c) I.K. natives have been staying in the island since birth and relied mainly on fishing as a means of livelihood; (d) I.K. natives are largely dependent on marince resources for their daily subsistence, prompting some of them to resort to some illegal fishing activities like encroaching and use of illegal fishing devices; and (e) Fisihing becomes an integral part of I.K. natives' lifestyles, thus, they are generally cooperative to almost if not all environmental conservation and protection measures to preserve their island. Further, results indicate that I.K. residents are fully aware of the benefits of the coastal resource management efforts directed to their area and aspire for a continuing implementation of these programs for the future generation. These results were translated into various forms of arts like music, visual arts and dances by Akeanon students and the researcher herself as instruments in propagating the existing conservation, protection and managerial practices in I.K.

Mr. Rojimar A. Delmo, SMRIEdrManager, Owner & Travel ConsultantGRAD Tours and Travels

Senior High School Teacher IIPresident Diosdado Macapagal, Memorial National High School

Abstract

Doing research provides another avenue for learning since teachers have an opportunity to think outside the box as they chase individual interests and talents and learning context to critically scrutinize practical societal problems. This descriptive-correlation study aimed

to determine the profile and the level of the research capability of teachers in President Diosdado Macapagal Memorial National High School. Results revealed that majority of the respondents were middle aged and only few were old. Most of them earned their Master's degree. All of them were able to attend trainings at varying level from school to national level. Considering the length of service, majority of them were new in the service. Seldom are those teachers who were able to serve for over 20 years. On the other hand, the respondents' level of research capability in terms of identifying and stating the problem was high (3.69), high for reviewing of literature (3.72), high in research methodology (3.70), high in analyzing and interpretation of data (3.65), and high also in drawing of conclusions (3.66). Furthermore, findings also showed that there was no significant relationship between the profile of the respondents in terms of age and the level of research capability as shown by the obtained r-values which all failed to exceed the given critical value of 0.22 using 78 degrees of freedom of 5% level of significance. Thus, the null hypothesis was not rejected. Meanwhile, there was significant relationship between the profile of the repondents in terms of educational attainment, trainings attended, and length of service and the level of research capability in terms of identifying the problem, reviewing of related literature, research methodology, analyzing and interpreting the data, and drawing conclusion and recommendation as attested by the obtained r-values which all exceed the given critical r-value of 0.22 with the same degree of freedom and level of significance. Thus, the null hypothesis was rejected.

FEDERALIZING THE AUTONOMOUS REGION IN MUSLIM MINDANAO

Dr. Edwin Chiong Du, FRIEdrDeanGraduate SchoolCapitol University, Cagayan de Oro City

Abstract:

This paper is based on the premise that the realization of self-autonomy in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) can be actualized through federalization of the creation of the Bangsamoro Federal State. Given the prevailing conditions of the ARMM as an autonomous region, is federalization politically viable? The focused area of examinations is the ARMM, specifically its political structure. Also considered in the analysis is the political culture like how patronage politics affects certain aspects of fiscal governance of the ARMM and its repercussions to the delivery of basic services to the people.

The methodology used in this study is basically a single-country or area studies which is extrapolative for informational purpose but are also useful for comparison. It is also considered a case study where the unit of analysis a specific region - in this study,



the ARMM region, which is said to be a test case for the potential of federalism.

The most significant outcome of this study is that federalism is politically viable in the ARMM in terms of its political structure of decentralization arguing from Brillantes Model that the next viable step to decentralization is federalization. However, there is much to be desired in actualizing decentralization and the need to enhance governance capabilities through accountability of public officials and transparency as well as providing solutions to the serious problem of patronage politics in the region.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PRACTICES OF ABACA FARMERS IN MAASIN, ILOILO: PATHWAY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Ms. Jessica T. Fadriga, SMRIEdr, SMRIMAssistant ProfessorUniversity of San Agustin, Iloilo City

Abstract

Abaca has been perceived to have substantial contributions to the economy and its utilization can also provide numerous ecological/environmental advantages. This research was conducted to obtain insights into the environmental management of Abaca industry in the area of Maasin, Iloilo, Philippines in order to propose further intervention for efficient rural sustainable development. The findings will be used by local, regional and national authorities to assess the farmers’ environmental management practices and determine their relevant concerns for sustainable farming. Moreover, this helps the association of abaca farmers to establish their system in environmental management to address environmental concerns through resources allocation; on-going evaluation environmental practices, procedures and processes; assigning accountability and responsibility and setting frameworks for training to achieve objectives and desired performance.

Secondary data were gathered from concerned government agencies and other organizations while primary data were collected through survey, interview and focus group discussion with the Abaca farmers to describe their environmental management practices and identify relevant needs which have implications on the proposed intervention. Data were processed using statistical tools for descriptive research.

The study found out that Abaca farmers were practicing sustainable farming in terms of waste disposal, ways in fertilizing the Abaca plants and ways in treating Abaca plants pest and diseases. They also practice intercropping trees and plants along with their Abaca plantation. However, threats and emerging issues are one of the concerns in the sustainability of the major abaca

growing areas around the globe which is true also in Maasin, Iloilo. Abaca plants are vulnerable to various environmental stresses such as the occurrence of the threatening disease such as the abaca bunchy top virus disease among others. The infested Abaca plantation which remained unresolved contributed to lower crop yield.

With the goal of increasing farmers’ productivity and profitability, it is recommended that the Abaca farmers be provided with relevant seminars and trainings on abaca diseases management and pest control and further intervention on environmental management programs.

Dr. Darwin M. Juguilon, SMRIEdrProfessorNational Service Training Program (NSTP) TrainerUniversity of Luzon

Abstract

The growing concern of educational institutes nowadays is to satisfy the needs of different stakeholders and to deal with a profound ecological and social diruption which has imposed on them a greater social responsibility. Thus, this empirical study purported to ascertain the extent of awareness, perception and attitudes of business students on CSR with the end view of providing a baseline data in formulating mechanisms that will promote, develop and sustain CSR intiatives and programs in step with the global / local aims of education. The study basically employed the descriptive type of research method, particularly descriptive survey. Consistent with the aims of this study, focus group discussions and unstructured interviews were administered among 4th year business students for validation and to attain triangulation. Findings revealed that along all the factors identified as to extent of knowledge, level of awareness, perception and attitude of the students, the common of view on CSR is being socially and environmentally responsible. The business students are aware of the initiative of the institution, but they are not totally familiar that these are CSR activities.

Ms. May B. Osano, SMRIEdr, SMRIMAcademic PersonnelUniversity of San Agustin

Academic SupervisorBusiness Administration and Entrepreneurship

Abstract

This research analyzed the economic activities of theAbaca industry in Iloilo, Philippines as to its production, cost, sales and profitability of the farming business of abaca farmers in Maasin, Iloilo, Philippines. Economic indicators such as the production, cost, sales, and profitability were determined using inputs such as size of land owned / leased, land area used in farming, number of years in farming, roles performed and gender participation through process such as production or farming, processing and trading. The inputs to production are seedlings which are supplied by the Department of Agriculture through PhilFIDA (Philippine Fiber Industry Development Authority) and suckers (shoots) which grow around the area of where there are abaca plants. After the harvest, Abaca are then processed to produce Abaca fiber through six steps (topping, tumbling, tuxying, stripping, drying and



bundling) as almost all of the farmers manually extract the Abaca fiber involving harvesters, extracters, strippers, dryers, bundlers. Lastly, trading involves the farmers selling all their produce of Abaca fiber to KAPAWA-Maasin (Katilingban sang Pumuluyo sa Watershed sang Maasin), the cooperative of all the farmers in the area.

The study covered five barangays in Maasin, Iloilo, Philippines with 143 farmers as the respondents. Survey and focused group discussions were utilized in the study. The data were then processed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS).

Results showed that the farmers in Maasin, Iloilo, Philippines produce 4,094 kg per week of Abaca fiber with an average of 28.6 kg. When sold, this generates a total weekly sales of Php 246,834.59 or approx. USD 4,726.83 with an average of Php 1,726.11 or more or less USD 33.05. Of the total produce, almost all (99.3%) are sold, with very little kept and made into an "amakan" or woven mat. Considering the cost incurred in preparing the land, the farmers in Maasin, Iloilo, Philipines spend an average of Php 512.33 or USD 9.81 per farmer. Considering the annual cycle of production (farming, processing and trading), the farmers consider the planting and trading Abaca to be profitable. Taking sales and cost in land preparation into the equation, the Abaca industry in Maasin, Iloilo, Philippines, specifically the farmers, profits. With just a one-time harvest, a profit of Php 173,571.59 is realized, with an average profit of Php 1,213.79 per farmer per week. Abaca is a low maintenance plant. Interview with the farmer revealed that the land preparation is done once and the harvest, after 2 years, can continue and the farmers can reap the benefits.

ENDURING SILENCE ON VIOLENCE IN THE NURSING WORPLACE: AN EMERGING PHENOMENON

Dr. Ma. Nelia P. Silloriquez, FRIEdr, FRINAssociate Professor VRevier Center DirectorUniversity Review Center West Visayas State University

Abstract

This phenomenological study aimed to understand the lived experiences of nurses on workplace violence in 2 tertiary hospital setting. Selected nurses who have personally experienced two or more bullying behaviors in the setting and whose jobe statuses were either regular, casual, or job hired were identified informants for an in-depth interview. The interview data were transcribed and five themes generated and evolved. These are (a) workplace violence happens to anyone: workplace violence is becoming rampant in th health care industry, (b) there are damaging circumstances as a nurse: impact of workplace for nurses, (c) unpleasant experiences are better forgotten: how nurses survive workplace

violence, (d) I am a Nurse and I stand by my profession: why nurses opted to stay despite their workplace violence experiences, and (e) I long for a better place: A better workplace for nurses. In the narratives, the study reveals that informants experienced unforgotten disruptive behaviors such as fear, frustration, verbal abuse, humilation and threat, abuse or misuse of power of authorities resulting in helplessness and demoralization that eventually reduced their feeling of dignity and self-respect. Legitimate occupational issues within the nursing workplace need attention and if interventions are ignored, the consequene is enduring silence.

CPA Jharam A. Tolentino, SMRIAccJunior AccountanLuzon Medical Center Inc.

Accounting ProfessorUniversity of Luzon

Abstract

Poor inventory management in healthcare providers can lead to multiple types of waste including excessive inventory, backorders, expired products, and the generation of a significant amount of manual efforts to keep supplies on the shelf. Effective inventory processes should help minimize all these forms of waste and should support good laboratory practice guidelines and standard operating procedures. Thus, this study aimed to assess the inventory management of Luzon Medical Center Inc (LMC) in order to provide a basis for strengthening its internal control and the overall improvement of the entity. The researcher used descriptive assessment method of research because the study relates to the efficiency and effectiveness of practices and policies implemented by the LMC in its inventory management system. Formal interviews were administered as method of data collection. Based on the findings, it was revealed that some routines conducted by the private hospital do not conform to the good inventory management system. Problem arises when the hospital does know whether is has the inventory or not because it does not have an established and accurate inventory balance. Over all, the inventory management system employed by LMC needs to be improved. As observed weaknesses, there are problems identified in the different areas of the inventory management. Measures were proposed by the researcher which can be implemented by the LMC Management to improve its operations and to help the hospital in achieving its overall objective of delivering quality healthcare service to its patients. ***

OPENING CEREMONY

Let me, on behalf of the people of Bacolod and on behalf of Mayor Evelio Leonardia, welcome each and everyone of you to the city of smiles.

I am representing mayor of Bacolod, Mayor Evelio Leonardia, who as much as he would like to be here, present, could not make it, because as you all know this is the post election time and he had to be in a very important engagement which was scheduled earlier. As you all know that the Mayor has conveyed me to inform you that the city of Bacolod is very much honored of this event today, which is the holding of your 25th International Conference and Conferment Ceremony.

Our mayor is a young mayor, a product of hard work who has been with us governing the City of Bacolod for more than 50 years. With your theme today, which is "Global Leadership and It's Impact on Sustainable Development" would be a very good subject for the ignorant people of Bacolod should know and listen.

To all of us here, those who are here, may I just mention that the. your presence today and the moving of this very important event makes each and every Bacolodnon proud and honored. May I especially welcome the president of the Royal Institution, Singapore, Dr. Athena Georgene Ang, also the president of Royal Institution of Philippine, Dr. Helen Molano. And may I also extend our warm welcome to the Chancellor Prof. Dr. Samuel M. Salvador and to each and everyone of you because this is a gathering of not only eagles but this is a gathering of people with high intellect, achievers of your own fields of endeavour, worthy of integration by the rest of the Filipinos. And particularly I also welcome Dr. Mercy, a graduate of my school of VMA Globe College formerly VMA Maritime Academy. Mr. Galon, are you still around? Because he is one of the recipients of this research.

I was looking at all the variants and researches done because in which I think every academic institution must have a copy, not only every academic institution but every local government unit should be able to have a copy of this because this is a work of product and hard work exposed in one and various destinates.

As you know, the city of Bacolod used to be the capital, well this is the capital of Negros Occidental, but the city of Bacolod used to be known as the Sugar Capital of the Philippines where 60% of sugar is produced. But as you know, as the time goes by, the situation in our province kept on wilding, the rise and fall of the sugar crisis. And this is one research I think that every Bacolodnon should undertake.

Atty. John N. Orola, City Administrator of Bacolod delivers his Welcome Address

WELCOME ADDRESS


WELCOME ADDRESS (Continued)

If you want that the sugar industry shall continue to be the bed and butter of every Bacolodnon. But, I should know that we cannot really perfectly think, but, however, every Bacolodnon should do into the situation and direction that not at all times, sugar is sweet. But with that for I am, means to be able to sustain the development of the city of Bacolod.

I have to know that one of your honorees today is the Hon. Dr. Gloria Baken Wong-Siy, who come from Bacolod, that she is here who have another sentimental journey of the city of Bacolod. Every Bacolodnon should know that she is one of the awardees in this conference, in this ceremony. And I hope that she always comes home, always come back here with us, the efforts, the researches that she has done in order that Bacolod would also have a share, be able to receive it coming from her.

As you know that the City of Bacolod was once known as one the hungry capital of the Philippines during the time of administration of the post Martial Law administration were a lot of hungry children were featured in various news worldwide. But we were able to rebound, we were able to come up and meet the challenges of the times.

Just a few words, Bacolod City, under the leadership of Mayo Evelio Leonardia was the Top Model City of the Philippines in 2017. In the next 2 years, 2018, it was also cited as the Best Investor / Best Investent-Friendly Local Government Unit outside Manila and also the most improving city in the Philippines.

We're looking at our direction, that lack of sugar should be able to sustain the development of the City of Bacolod but not at the We're looking at the Maritime Industry, we're looking at the Tourism Industry who come into the city of Bacolod and the province of Negros Occidental. We will work hard on this. We will attempt and we will continue, hopefully, working with the Royal Institution, Singapore to be able to share with us the various researches that you are able to make, not only for the people of Bacolod but for the academe as well. Because the academe is very important to all in sustainable development of our city and in particular in our country.

In your 2 days, I understant that you will stay here for 2 or 3 days. Especially for your post-convention conference, we open to you the city of Bacolod, we invite you to visit each and every barangay if you would have the chance. But it will be a great honor if you will have the opportunity to visit our new government center. A product of hard work of your Mayor of Bacolod and the city council.

In the recent election, while we are looking at the direction of 15-0, but the deliberation done, we make it 14-0 with only one member of the city council who does who does not belong to the primary of the city mayor. But the city councilor is a higher qualified. And we are looking forward for an integration of resources, an integration of intellect, an integration of hard work so that the Bacolod City and the people of Bacolod will continue on sustaining its development.

So this, our dear friends, thank you for your choice of Bacolod. Mr. President of the Royal Institution, Singapore and President of the Royal Institution, Philippines chapter and all the distinguished conferees, thank you for coming to Bacolod.

Thank you for your choice of Bacolod. We are looking foward to working with you, if you would allow us to become part of it. Thank you and God Bless you all.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE COLLOQUIUM


Good morning and welcome once again to all of you.

On behalf of the Royal Instutition of Singapore and RI Philippines, under the stewardship of the founding President and Chairman Emeritus. Hon. FDr. Arch. Engr. Ang Thian Soo who is now our great Supreme Consultant,

we wish to WELCOME YOU all in today's 25th International Conference and Conferment Ceremony with the theme, "Global Leadershop and Its Impact on Sustainable Development".

This historical global event is being organized by the Royal Institution Singapore and Royal Institution Philippines in the cooperation of it more than 100 RIS Accredited Educational Institutions and Organization as strategic partners.

Global leadership is defined as leading people who are based in multiple regions of the world. Global leaders have to engage very diverse groups of stakeholders and colleagues to get things done.

There are 4 skills you need to become a global leader according to Peter Vanham, Media Lead, US and Industries, World Economic Forum, such as:

1. Make choices that give you flexibility;

2. Be aware that things don't always go up;

3. Get as much exposure to other cultures as you can; and

4. Understand the importance of communication

FDr. Prof. Dr. Samuel M. Salvador, HonFRI, DFRIEdr, DFRIM, FRIRs, RIIVPF, Chancellor of Royal Institution, Singapore delivers his Opening Address

According to recent survey conducted by Norwich University, there are 10 identified characteristics of a good global leader, namely:

1. Honesty

2. Ability to Delegate

3. Ability to Communicate

4. Sense of Humor

5. Confidence

6. Commitment

7. Positive Attitude

8. Creativity

9. Ability to Inspire

10. Intuition

Ladies and gentlemen, according to Loughlan Sofield, "the hope of an effective leader come from his strong belief in God, in himself, and in others; his joy flows from appreciating God's goodness, the dignity and value of all creation, and his own personal worth. He is a person who in the face of all life's complexity and difficulty, is happy with who he is, where he is, and what he is doing. His openness, his smiles and tears, his responsiveness of his wisdom of his soul. The strength and effectiveness of his leadership is well grounded with confidence that he is in communion with listening, loving, and forgiving God."

Likewise, the stability and success of any organization is largely dependent or determined by the quality of leadership that permeates it. In fact, the aims and aspirations of global leadership calls for unprecented cooperative efforts of all people in the globalization. When people join together, pooling their resources, skills, abilities and knowledge; and exchanging their output with many other persons, they certainly grasp the means to flourish or bloom for sustainable development.


OPENING ADDRESS


OPENING CEREMONY (Continued)

Global leadership seeks to harmonize, mobilize and motivate people to work smoothly and cooperatively to the fullest. Quality and excellent leaders are needed to convert disorganized resources of people into useful ones.

They convince of the services that the organization can render mobilize the required means of production, synergize and coordinate programs and activities within and outside world, and inspire people associated with the organization to work toward the attainment of the common vision, mission and goals for sustainable development.

Truly, without effective, efficient, excellent and well-balanced global leadership, organization is only a confusion of people and machines. Global Leadership requires the ability to persuade, harmonize, inspire, and influence people to seek and attain the common vision, mission and goals enthusiastically for sustainable development.

It is the human factor that binds a group together and motivates it towards the realization of its ultimate goal. Global leadership builds and concretized the foundation of an organization.

Weak leadership or complete lack of it, can disorganize an otherwise organized group. Without a good leader, a work group would find itself lost ina stream of uncertainty and indecisions. There may virtually be no direction; no cooperation and unity among people in the organization. Definitely only minimal work can be accomplished or maybe none at all.

Henceforth, it is within this context that the Royal Institution of Singapore and RI Philippines organized this 25th ICCC with the theme "Global Leadershop and It's Impact on Sustainable Development" conference, in order to further appreciate, understand and embrace the important role of global leadership towards the attainment of thd 17 Sustainable Development Goals as advanced by the United Nations Organization.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are indeed, very fortunate today, for we succeeded in inviting top caliber global speakers to share their knowledge and expertise relative to our theme I am certain that we will be able to learn more and more from


our speakers in relation with the them of this 25th ICCC.

Before I end my opening remarks, may I request you to listen to this video presentation from Youtube.

And so without much ado, allow me once again to WELCOME YOU ALL into this noble and glorious global event. It is our fervent hope and prayers that this event will be a big success.

Thank you very much and God Bless us all.

PLENARY SESSION

It is with great honor and privilege to be with you today, specially that it is in Bacolod City, the birth pace of my mother from Manalagan, Bacolod. I am a blast to speak on the topic which I believe is very timing for all of us to open our eyes to the challenges facing us all. Particularly the academe and the hospitality industry with the onset of 'The Industrial Revolution 4.0.'

It has been said that where there is tourism, there is business. A chain of businesses and opportunities of employment. Thus, tourism is everbody's concern not only for those who are in the hospitality and tourism industry but for all of us including of course the city of Bacolod. Our country with a very strong determination to build and build a premonition for bigger opportunities for the people, who are somehow manifesting now the self-discipline to gain greater hop and strength that someday the Philippines will truly be great again. However, tourism is not only internal, it is global. We cater to the internatonal guest together with our local guest.

There is a need for leadership in hospitality and tourism in order to sustain our national and international development. We need to take a lead.

Global leadership and hospitality and tourism industry sustainability, can only be possible id we understand and ready to face the challenges of this 'Industrial Revolution 4.0.' You must have read a lot about this 4th Industrial Revolution, which is the current trent of automation and data exchanges in manufacturing technology. It is changing our belief, how we work, how we communicate. Just what like Director Gaspar said, "with more and more jobs being taken over by artificial intelligence." It is said that 65% of our youth enrolled in primary education today, will end up working in jobs that have not being created yet. What does this mean? Make of the jobs now will be obsolete and there will be a lot of innovative positions that are yet to be created. That wll happen in 2020, too soon, right?

How will this affect the hospitality and tourism industry and its sustainability? Being in the academe, is it necessary to prepare for this? How shall we beat these challenges?The 4th Industrial Revolution is the 4th 'major' industrial era, since the Industrial Revolution in the 80th century.

It is the fusion that are being legalized between the physical-digital and bilogical spheres which referred to as the 'cyber-physical'.

The 'cyber-physical' system is a mechanism that is controlled or monitored of computer based algorithms tidily integrated with the internet and its users. In order to face these disruptive forces and to keep tourism industry alive the demands of the young, they donated on the modern tales that are increasing rapidly, must be addressed. We have to be ready. It is important that the next generation leaders being or will bring their skills and knowledge in technology to hospitality and tourism industry, to keeo the industry really alive in the future.

The world tourism leaders aim to bring together the next generation to discuss what could possibly be the potential leaders in hospitality and tourism industry. It is intended to provide the environment in which the members of the group are inspired, learning and sharing with each other. Its changing ideas and able each other to tackle the challenges they face in the current workplace and the challenges of the industry.

We should care for the industrial revolution and understand the people's knowledge and skills if we want to sustain our human resources. It is further said that there will be at least 15 jobs that will disappear due to automation and artificial intelligence. Let us try to see what are these, when these affect the hospitality and tourism industry.

1. Drivers, you see how exciting that would be, there would be self-driving trucks, so no need fo drivers, that will be made at a time. Actually, I just learned that there is someone at the customs got a 7 million driverless car but he bought is only for 3.5 million

2. Farmers, there would be automated food that it would be in boxes or it is processed. In fact, it is happening now with so many food supplements in the market

3. Printers at the publishers, information would be free and can e easily accessed so that no need for the publishing.

4. Cashier, in the United States of America there are


8 million workers who are costly, thus, it would be replaced by automated machines. Likewise, it is happening in other countries.

5. Travel Agents, there will no need for 3rd parties to do booking for us, this is also happening now, many of us are doing our booking online.

6. Manufacturing workers or factory workers, this people would be moving and will be working in factories that will be already automated.

7. Dispatchers, must perform the necessary coordination in different ways, somehow this will affect the tourism workers who are doing a lot of dispatching

8. Waiters and bartenders, these are actually the easiest jobs that our graduates can land into, however, it could also be automated. They might be replaced with a robots, in fact it is happening already in Japan and in some other countries.

9. Bank tellers, people will not go to banks anymore, but just transact to online machines

10. Military pilots and soldiers, no more lives will be lost since the soldiers will be replaced by machines created by technology to fight, so our fighters will already be robots also.

11. Fastfood workers, it is also said that fastfood worker will be easiest to automate, many of the robots are doing the jobs in Japan and also in other countries.

12. Tele-marketers, our marketing agents will not find so much difficulty because machines are doing it.

13. Accountants, the technology will replace accountants with easier and faster as well as more accurate results.

14. Stock tellers, will also be done by machines

15. Construction workers, wih the aid of machineries, construction is said to be done easier and much faster, just look at now, those big bridges and skyscrapers and cranes are being assembled easily.

That is the work of technology, so let us try to see further, I hope you find it interesting that this is for hospitality and tourism. Just like what I have said, tis will affect all of us.

There are actually 4 identified jobs that are disappearing as far as our hospitality and tourism industry are concern. Dispatcher, waiters and bartenders as well as the fast food worker. What then are some of the identified jobs that would exist or remain demand?

SPEAKER 2: FDR. DR. GLORIA BAKEN WONG-SIY (Continued)

1. Clinical field: doctors, nurses;2. Education arena: I would like to refer to my fellow

professors, educators, we will still exist;3. Technical jobs: still are needed, it could be using

the computer and the rest because if we say technology, it is only those that are for machines but other technologies;

4. Consulting jobs: they see different situations, different cases;

5. And cooks, our chefs, they are needed. The robots can't really replace them to have the proper taste

6. Inn keepers or hotel managers

So these are the groupings of those jobs that are obviously these are the jobs that require experts who are equipped with full knowledge, technical and soft skills as well as the right attitude.

We're need to prepare the challenges of the global skills, there are a lot of global skills mentioned, in fact director mentioned it also. Digital skills, so those who are with me, they call it the "milleniors - millennial-seniors", we will be forced really to touch on our computers because we will be left behind. We have to be ready for that, the agile thinking. able to move quickly easily and must be quick, smart and clever as well as building and managing relationship.

What we are doing here now is building another relationship, how wonderful it is to meet professionals from the different places, doctors, engineers and all of our guest here, don't you feel happy and honored to be with Royal Institution, Singapore.

The department of tourism assistant secretary Alma Jimenez once said, there is a need to have a planned absolescence, a plan for changes in order to avoid extinction. We need to know the ways can inspire versus the expected. What are really the gaps that we need to address in terms of them and versus the industry operational evaluation.

Earlier I was talking with sir, I said the problem is the education where the academe, is trying its best to cope up with the old demands, the changes, the challenges and here are the industriess. If you talk of hotel and tourism industry, they have there own standards. So ones the graduates will come in, sometimes we will say it is a "mismatch" , "your doing it wrong". But actually it is not, they learn it different way so we have to teach our students then, be ready, adapt what are the changes, if they are the soft silled, it would be very easy for them to really adjust.

As further said, it has be an inclusive growth for a generation of shared economy, this is now the time of shared economy. We have to work together, the industry and the academe, DepEd, TESDA and CHED should collaborate, truly collaborate and come up with an agreement that will not be difficult. Then for the academe and the rest of the practitioners. There

PLENARY SESSION


is a lead to collaborate among countries, in terms of hospitality and tourism and as well as other technology.

See further share, that for an inclusive growth, there are 5 Ps to be involved, the:

• Purpose• Pipeline• Program• Productivity• Planning

Purpose, is what is the purpose of your training module? Educators please try to see, actually the director of TESDA was turned to general deputy and was challenging us to look into our curriculum, are we trying to indentify our intended learning outcomes, it has to be identified, do not just copy from a book.

Pipeline, what could be the channels to reach out the intended unitarian market. We have different kinds of students, be ready for that.

Program, what are the program of activities to insure our inquisition of learning.

Productivity, how can a participant be made active and alive in order to acquire learning.

Planning or plan of obsolescence, identify the task that may no long apply in the 4th Industrial Revolution.

Therefore, review of curriculum, let us prepare. The chief executive of Rush Alcaima, tourism development authority, Haifam Mathar was interviewed by the world tourism forum and he discuss why the next generation leaders is important for the future of hospitality industry. He said, the industries arise up specially those related to technology and artificial intelligence. The hospitality industry will be less appealing to the next generation, unless we keep up with the technology that have been picked up by the other industries.

He further said, the next generation leaders would stand out in crowd. Let us prepare our students, not to be timid they have to be ready to really face, so may they have knowledge, they may have the technology. But if they lack the required soft skills, it is useless.

This are now the following skills that are on top among the skills of the future, take not of this, the skills related to honorship, global leaders must own the vision and mission or the objectives of the company, the tasks and responsibilities. What they become a part of the organization they have to own it otherwise it is useless. Again, most of our graduates will just be there, "why are you here?" then "for employment" , "what is your work?" then "anything else?", "just service", see? Because we did not make them feel that they should own our objectives.

SPEAKER 2: FDR. DR. GLORIA BAKEN WONG-SIY (Continued)

The Royal Institutions, Singapore we are a part of this, let's reach out to the rest to be also recognized. Because they are recognized, they will feel the value of what they have achieveed. Decision-making, he must be able to analyze and make decisions, useless is your analysis if you get assigned. Excellent communicaton skills, our directir emphasized this, communication skills, even if we are in other areas. Bisayas are said to be with matigas and dila, it's okay, what is important is we can be understood.

Other Asian countries, they talk differently. It is us the professors, the educators help them. What are these global skills that are mentioned. We have the over-experience which can help them out in developing more soft skills, be ready, be patient and the rest of those will process. The dee-self-awarness, we should understand the principles.

Sensivity to cultural diversity is not only in the Philippines, we are now borderless without or ancient integration. Sensitivity humidity, teach them the willingness and the ability to listen well with real intention. Life-long curiosity, meaning we have to keep ourselves busy, with the new opportunities. What we know is not enough, there is always something new. Cautious honesty, you can balance the need to be cautious in different topics while showing you can follow through. Global strategic thinking must have a lifetime linkage, we are now linking with our brothers and sisters of different places. And this linking will give us the skill to be able to think strategically because of what we learn from them, we go to apply.

The patiently impatient, in what you are happening, you are patient also to them. You see, well spoken, reverse to our ability to say clearly what we mean and good negotiator, they should not be waiting for the manager, it has to be our right. And these are not in the books, it should be developed or learned. Being an influential leader, let your presence be felt, indeed, let them feel that you are there for them, not to make it difficult.

The next generation leaders are part of the millennial generation and they are important target market being the group who seeks adventure. Connecting with nature, with sustainability tourism, the best way to address this group is by highlighting the nature-based adventure products and activities. Ladies and gentlemen, both the academe and the industry across in different fields must work hand in hand, to train and be train our human resources. Who could not surpass the challenges of IR 4.0 by 2020, in order to sustain the demands of the next generation. Everyone must be leaders of his own innovative and advanced ideas, to establish and to sustain of global leadership, not only for hospitality and tourism industry but across industries.

PLENARY SESSION

The Sustainable Development Goals: also known as The 2030 Agenda is the plan of action for people, planet and prosperity. Launched by the United Nations in 2015; it took off from the Millennium Development Goals, and had 17 goals, 139 targets and 270 indicators. It responds to the exploding social, economic, political and ecological inequities and the destructive forces of climate change that we face today. It acknowledges the urgent neet to invest far more holistically, strategically and comprehensively in the social sector to overcome immense poverty, hunger and social exclusion challenges.

Over the past few decades, economic development in the Western Pacific Region where the Philippines is situated has led to improvements in quality of life. More people have access to clean and safe water, higher education an access to health services. However, against the backdrop of driving forces - rapid and unplanned ubanization, new technologies, environmental degradation, climate change, population ageing and trade liberalization - population groups have unequal access to information and services. In addition, constantly changing political, socioeconomic and environmental conditions make it increasingly difficult for people and policy-makers to make better decisions for health.

Develoing health literacy is cited as an intervention to empower people, build personal skills and strengthen individual and collective capacity to act for health and sustainable development. This then brings us to the importance of Health Education.

Health education is any combination of learning experiences designed to help individuals and communities improve their health, by incresing their knowledge of influencing their attitudes. Health education is also a profession. Areas within this profession encompass environmental health, physical health, social health, emotional health, intellectual health, and spiritual health, as well as sexual and reproductive health education.

This paper describes global leadership in health and nutrition and the national policies of the Philippines to support the SDGs. It also cover the current state of S&T in the Philippines, the research priorities focused on health and nutrition, and offers recommendations for researchers and managers to help attain the SDGs.

Global Leadership: The Unites Nations System

The UN Decade of Action on Nutrition 2016-2025 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide global and national impetus to address malnutrition and expedite progress. The UN system is a key role player among a range of stakeholders taking responsibility and being accountable for realizing nutrition goals. Several UN entities involved in nutrition work include the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), World Food Programme (WPF), and World Health Organization (WHO).

• FAO focus on nutrition improvement through food-based interventions, including nutrition education, and analytical work on food consumption and food-based dietary guidelines.

• IFAD, a specialized UN agency and international financial institution is dedicated to enable poor rural people to improve their food and nutrition security, increase their incomes and strengthen their resilience by investing in agricultural development projects that bring about rural transformation.

• UNICEF focus on children, children's rights, equity, resilience; banks on strong country presence and focus on support to programme implementation. UNICEF is active in both humanitarian and development assistance. It is not directly involved in agriculture and food


system interventions.

• WFP focus on food-based assistance and enabling access fo the most vulnerable with nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive approaches through various entry points accross the value chain in both humanitarian and development contexts.

• WHO is the global health leader, has strong focus on analytical and technical guidance, normative functions, including monitoring and evaluation of nutrition programmes.

The World Health Organization's Regional Action Plan on Health Promotion in the Sustainable Development Goals (2018-2030) recognized the complex factors that affect health and development, builds on existing good practices and proposes to mainstream and accelerate them; provides policy support where it is most needed; and strengthens health promotion infrastructure and capabilities to achieve inclusiveness, equity and a better life for everyone.

The action plan envisions a "healthier people making healthier decisions" and a goal of "creating health promoting sectors, policies and settings." Its mission is to ensure that all people, governments and diverse sectors participate in action to achieve the SDGs and are better informed about decisions that impact everyone's health.

The Food and Agriculture Organization envisions a world free from hunger and malnutrition, where food and agriculture contribute to improving the living standards of all people in an economically, socially and environmentally-sustainable manner. In achieving this vision, FAO supports countries in improving nutrition accross the life cycle through better food and agriculture systems, working with partners at global, regional and national levels.

Promoting nutritionally adequate diets is a major aim of FAO. In 2012, the UN Secretary-General launched the Zero Hunger Challenge to galvanize efforts to end hunger and ensure the fundamental right to food and adequate nutrition for all: When talking about hunger, the only acceptable number is zero. In order to achieve this goal, the Zero Hunger Challenger has proposed five elements:

1. Zero stunted children less than 2 years2. 100% access to adequate food all year round3. All food systems are sustainable

4. 100% increase in smallholder productivity and income

5. Zero loss or waste of food

An integral part of all five elements is women's empowerment considering the fundamental role that they play in the fight against hunger and malnutrition. In many countries, women represent the backbone of the agricultural sector and food systems and make up the bulk of the work force in the primary sector. Women also play a key role if guarenteeing food security for the whole family: when women suffering from hunger and malnutrition, so do tehir children. Over 19 million children are born underweight each year. This is often a consequence of their mother's inadequate nutrition before and during pregnancy.

The burden of malnutrition accross the world remain unacceptably hhigh, and progress unacceptably slow according to UNCEF's 2018 Global Nutrition Report. Malnutrition is responsible for more ill health that any other cause. Children under five years of age face multiple burdens: 150.8 million are stunted, 50.5 million are wasted and 38.3 million are overweight.

At the 9th Global Conference on Health Promotion (9th GCHP) in Shanghai, China in November 2016, countries and the global health promotion community declared that health and well-being are requirements for sustainable development; that health needs to be promoted through action on all SGDs; and that bold political decisions have to be made to address inequities and promote health. Leaders also pledged to increase politcal engagement and financial investment in health promotion to accelerate implementation of the SDGs.

Localizing Sustainable Development: Adapting Governance to the New Challenges

AmBisyon Natin 2040Executive Order No. 5 issued October 11, 2016 approved and adopted AmBisyon Natin 2040 for development planning. AmBisyon Natin 2040 represents the collective long-term vision and aspirations of the Filipino people for themselves and for the country in the next 25 years. The 25-year vision foresees a Philippines that a "prosperous, predominantly middle-class society where no one is poor." It also envisions Filipinos with "long and healthy lives", being smart and innovative, and living in a "high-trust society".

PLENARY SESSION


Science for the PeopleR&D is increasingly viewed as an input to innovation in the context of the overall efforts make in a knowledge-based global economy, but continues to play a crucial part and is a major focus of government policies because of its unique features. Developed countries spend 3-4% of GDP on Research while the rest of the world spend only 1% or less. The indicator provided if GERD (Gross Domestic Expenditure on R&D) as a percentage of GDP. "Research and experimental development (R&D) comprise creative work undertaken on a systematic basis in order to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of man, culture and society and the use of this stock of knowledge to devise new applications" (Frascati Manual, 2002 edition, § 63).

Plans and programs under the Department of Science & Technology's Science for Change Program (S4CP) emphasize the importance of collaborative research among stakeholders in the government, industry, and the academe the leverge growth in the Philippine economy. Through S4CP, DOST will focus its research outputs on addressing the country's issues on inequality, employment, and economic competitiveness.

Philippine National Health Research System (PNHRS)

RA 10532 institutionalized the PNHRS - a system which assures quality health care for Filipinos by ensuring that health research is linked to the needs of our health system. It aims to generate research funds sufficient enough to finance the training of more health scientists and provide the necessary resources for undertaking health researches aligned with the country's National Unified Health Research Agenda (NUHRA). PNHRS's core agencies are the Department of Health (DOH), Philippine Council for Health Research and Development-Department of Science and Technology (PCHRD-DOST), Commission on Higher Education (CHED), and National Institutes of Health (NIH) - University of the Philippines Manila.

NUHRA or the National Unified Health Research agenda guides the national roadmap for health research in the country. - It provides focus and direction for health research and development efforts and servers as guide for policy makers, funding and donor agencies and researchers. A Flowchart model on agenda setting is used during Regional consultations and considers a

list of criteria used in prioritization during such consultations.

For the NUHRA 2017-2022 the six (6) research priorities include 1) Responsive health systems that aims to produce evidence towards efficient, quality, safe and affordable healthcare (UHC); 2) Research to enhance and extend healthy lives; 3) Holistic approaches to health and wellness; 4) Health resiliency; 5) Global competitiveness and innovations in health; and 6) Research in equity and health.

Nutrition at the Forefront

Year 2016-2025 is the United Nations Decade of Action on Nutrition. Good nutrition is the lifeblood of sustainable development and drives the changes needed for a more sustainable and prosperous future. Attaining optimal nutrition is essential for the success of all the SDGs.

Consider how formidable basic human needs can be met because a Healthy State needs assurance of basic needs (respiration, circulation, nutrition, hydration, elimination, rest, movement, comfort, safety, connection and purpose). The fulfillment of basic nees depend on some complex factors: 1) Physical, mental , and socioeconomic factors; 2) Knowledge, skills and experience; and 3) Desire and decision to act.

Factors that impact nutrition demonstrate complexities at play. Individual needs to maintain a healthy nutritional state include the following:

• Know what constitutes a healthy diet• Have cognitive ability to plan, prepare and

consume meals• Have the money to purchase food• Be physically able to shop for handle, prepare

and consume food• Know how to properly cook or have access to

someone who can• Be motivated to eat properly• Have an emotional state that conductive to

proper food intake• Make sound dietary choices• Organize activites to have the time to eat

Let us look at the ideal health profile of an individual: of the 13 listed below, how many of them are manifest in our life?

• Consumes an appropriate amount of high-quality food

• Exercises regularly• Maintains weight within and ideal/desirable


PLENARY SESSION


range• Has effective stress coping mechanisms• Balance work and play• Looks forward to activities with energy and

enthusiasm• Falls asleep easily and sleeps well• Eliminates waste with ease and regularity• Has meaningful relationships• Enjoys a satisfying sex life (satisfying hobby

for the celibate)• Feels a sense of purpose• Feels safe• Is free from pain and other symptoms

Thus, Nutrition is at the heart of the SDGs. By focusing on the implementation of the Philippine Plan of Action on Nutrition developed by the National Nutrition Council with the concurrence of its member agencies; and if successful, the fun o money spent on it has a very good return of investment. For every 1$ invested, it gives a 16$ return since primarily good nutrition supports productive lives.

Policies to Support the Health and Nutrition Agenda of the SGDs

The Power of the First 1000 Days. If you love your children and the generations to come, we all need to cooperate and support the right nutrition between a woman's pregnancy and her child's second birthday to build the foundation for growing, learnin and thriving in these most challenging times. [Signed by the President on Nov. 29, 2018,] Republic Act No. 11148, or the "Kalusugan at Nustrisyon ng Mag-Nanay Act", shall provide "evidence-based nutrition interventions...as well as nurition-specific and nutrition-sensitive mechanisms, strategies, programs and approaches... to eradicate malnutrition and hunger." The law also seeks to strengthen and define the roles of the Department of Health, the National Nutrition Council, and other government agencies tasked to implement nutrition programs in the first 1,000 days of a child's life.

Under the law, the DOH, NNC, Department of Agriculture, in coordination with relevant government agencies, shall develop a comprehensive and sustainable strategy for the first 1,000 days of life to address the health, nutrition, and developmental problems affecting infants, young children, adolescent females, and pregnant and lactating women.

Republic Act No. 11210 of the Expanded Maternity Leave Act was signed last February 22, 2019. The

IRR was released on May 1, 2019. Under the law, both government and private offices are required to give mothers 105 days or over 3 months of paid maternity leave. It applies to every instance of pregnancy and employers are required to grant it regardless of the mode of delivery, civil status, legitimacy of the child, and employment status.

According to the World Health Organization, 42 million infants and young children under the age of five are overweight or obese and if current trends continue that number will rise to 70 million by 2025. Analysis of global research shows that adults who are overweight or obese have an increased risk of 10 cancers and curbing global sugar consumption, outlines the actions governments can take to tackle the rising obesity epidemic.

The Department of the Health Program was given a boost with the enactment of the Universal Health Care [RA 11223] by the President on February 20, 2019 - where all Filipinos will be able to avail of the benefits of the National Health Insurance Program.

RA 11037 or the Masustansyang Pagkain Para sa Batang Pilipino Act, signed on June 20, 2018 provided for the establishment of a national feeding program for undernourished children in public day care centers, kindergarten, and elementary school. It orders national government agencies to implement a program with 3 components:

• Supplemental Feeding Program for Day Care Children - Undernourished children ages 3 to 5 in day care centers are to be given at least one fortified meal (meal with improved nutritional quality based on government standards) for a period of at least 120 days in a year. This will be implemented by the Department of Social Welfare and Development and local government units (LGUs)

• School-based Feeding Program - Undernourished children from kindergarten to Grade 6 ar to be given at least one fortified meal for at least 120 days in a year. This will be implemented by the Department of Education

• Milk Feeding Program - Fresh milk and fresh milk-based food products should be included in the fortified meals and cycle menu. This should be done in coordination with the Department of Agriculture, Philippine Carabao Center, and the Cooperative Development Authority.


PLENARY SESSION



In addition to the aforementioned legislations, we have RA 10611 or the Food Safety Act of 2013 and laws concerning the environment. Take note of RA 10771 - Philippine Green Jobs Act of 2016; RA 10121 or the "Philippine Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act of 2010"; RA 10068 or the "Organic Agriculture Act of 2010"; RA 9513 or the "Renewable Energy Act of 2008"; RA 9367 or the "Biofuels Act of 2006"; RA 9275 or the "Philippine Clean Water Act of 2004"; RA 9003 or the "Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000"; RA 8749 or the "Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999"; and RA 8550 or the "Philippine Fisheries Code of 1998".

Harmony and Synergy: Recommendations for Leaders and Managers

To succeed, implementing the SDGs will require a fundamental rethink of our global political, economic and ecological rationales. Academicians and Leaders must attempt to turn the 2030 Agenda and the SDGs into concrete actions that go beyong pallirative approaches to substantively and sustainably address the root causes of poverty, inequality and environmental detruction. Wee need actions that are integrated, innovative and policy-driven, and demonstrate an eco-social turn in discourse and practice; are informed by inclusive, multi-level partnerships; and are grounded inevidence and normative values such as social justice and sustainability.

Leaders, researchers and managers share responsibility in attaining the SDGs by increasing stall wellbeing and research engagement and all professionals must do their share and play their part fully well.

Quality of research outputs can be enhanced by better management practices, transparency in the use of resources, and accountability mechanisms to communities and other stakeholders through 1)Mechanisms for promoting ownership and accountability through participatory planning; and 2) Adequate physical facilities, equipment and supplies for research that should be provided. Research engagement can also be increased by training line managers in peole management skills - including the large number of clinicians who lead and supervise other staff but don't see themselves as managers.

All of us, professionals must be aware, understand, imbibe and appreciate the vision and mission of our agency and the goals of our department / sector. VMGO should be the bases

PLENARY SESSION

of all operations of your agency / institution. The agency is judged by the degree to which its mission, goals, and objectives are attained, not in comparison with others.

Practce your code of ethics! Work ethics and philosophy have been found to be important predictors of willingess for advancement. Looking into the quality of worklife and ethics, especiall in governement services, serves as an opportunity to examine government personnel's professional growth and productivity as well as the efficiency in how they pursue government policies and practices.

Utilize the data routinely collected or at hand to answer problems prevalent in the intitution. What have you done with the data and files that you accumulate through the years? Seek the help of experts and mentors: 1) Interview experts; 2) Visit / Participate in exhibits and expos; 3) Do a thorough review of literature; and 4) Know the avaibility of laboratories in the area of school campus.

Collaborate with others in computer technology for research since there are stand-alone applications as well as web-based or internet applications. Know priorities of funding agencies that might be giving research assistance to the chosen field of study.

An Optimistic Conclusion...

The 5 P's of Sustainable Development include People, Planet, Partnership, Peace and Prosperity summarizing the overall goals, which are: 1) End poverty and hunger in all forms and ensure dignity and equality (people), 2) Protect our planet's natural resources and climate for future generations, 3) Implement the agenda though a solid global partnership, 4)Foster peaceful, just and inclusive societies, and 5) Ensure prosperous and fulfilling lives in harmony with nature.

The SDGs do stand a chance of hitting the ground running -- but only if civil society seizes the opportunity to press for structural changes, if the academic community rises to the challenge and offers constructive and transformative ideas; and if the private sector, governments and the international community depart from the path of business as usal.

FDR. DR GLORIA BAKEN WONG - SIY, HonFRI, DFRIEdr, DFRIHosM, DFRIM, RIIVPFFounding President, Association of Administrators in Hospitality,

Hotel & Restaurant Management Educational InstitutionsRepublic of the Philippines

The Honorable members of the Board, Royal Institutions Singapore, distinguished guests, valued participants to this RI 25th International Conference and Conferment Ceremony, ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon.

I was so surprised and overwhelmed with a mixture of feelings when I received the letter informing me about these awards. I asked myself the following questions: Why me, I didn't apply for anything? What have I done? Do I deserve the recognition?

It did not sink into my mind until after a few hours, when I received the kind words of my friends. That was then the time that I expressed verbally, "How great thou art Lord!" Indeed, when you do good things without expecting for anything in return, God rewards in His own mysterious way. He lifts you up, high enough beyond your expectations.

It is indeed delightful and fulfilling to be honored with the highest recognition and distinct award from such an esteemed and prestigious international organization, the

Royal Institutions Singapore.

I have always wanted to share significant contributions, particularly in the field of Hospitalilty and Tourism educaation and industry, to give justice to the title afforded to me by RI Singapore as Honorary President for Hospitality and Tourism Education, but I never thought my humble contributions to help achieve quality and excellence in education paved the way for these awards.

More values and greater significance are added to this event because I am the lone recipient of the highest 10 nor now, and it is done in the birthdplace of my mother where our relatives, that I have longed to meet since long time ago are around to give value to this very special event.

To the Honorable Board headed by its founder, Dr. Ang Thian Soo, the Chair, Dr. Samuel Salvador, the competent president Dr. Georgene Ang, the Chief Quality Compliance Officer and Philippine RI President, Dr. Helen Molano, with deep honor and gratitude, I do accept these awards that I will value throughout my remaining years on earth. From the bottom of my heart, please allow me to express my sincerest thanks for this distinct recognition.

Maraming maraming Salamat po!
