I have posted my insights in one of the forums that I’m with, I am not an expert on this but sometimes great ideas comes from simple suggestions even ones with loopholes, so here it is again… These are ideas and some sort of suggestions…
1. As with a lot of other people, I believe that we have find ways to control the continuous population growth. Religion and Human Rights is one big opposition to this. I would guess that human rights activist would say that even the poorest should have the right to have as many babies as they want. But they would not think about the children’s right to eat well, live well, education…etc. Then they will blame the government for not taking care of the poor. Bad… They need to be learn simple cause and effects.
2. We can only hope to slow down the increase of population, but what will we do to the billions who are already living? Livelihood programs, things like that? Just find something useful for them to do, if they lack skills, give them at least basic education, enough for them to be factory workers or whatever.
Problem is, most people wants to take shortcuts. Even if they are not skilled, they would not want to take mundane jobs because they will be paid less, they would rather be drug pushers, holduppers, swindlers, because it takes less effort but gives more proffit.
3. We have a beautiful country, most of us know that already. Improving tourism will bring more tourists of course, meaning more money, more jobs for the provinces, so less people will look for jobs here in the metro and will end up being squatters.
4. For the politicians. Is it possible to let the constituents know of the proposed projects, inluding the budget and procurement of materials BEFORE they are actually implemented? I’m guessing it is possible, but this would lessen the income/kickback of some people so it is not implemented.
I had my hair rebonded last December. The one thing that one should not do with rebonded hair is to tie it. But with this heat???
According to BBC Weather, today we have maximum of 38C temp and a relative humidity of 57% which brings the heat index to 52.9C.
So I have no choice but to tie my hair up, otherwise I might suffer from heat exhaustion. Hmft.
It’s also ironic, yesterday there were black outs in Metro Manila, Bulacan, Zambales, Novaliches, apparently caused by the unusual high demand for electricity. due to lots of people using electric fans and airconditioning units. So double the trouble for some people. And this they say is a rotating black out that would last up to 4 hours. When our house will be hit, we don’t know, but I hope it is Glenn’s day off so we could go chill out somewhere.
