  • Zamboanga City West Coast Medical Complex
    Zamboanga City West Coast Medical Complex Introduction Health is the level of functional and metabolic efficiency of a living being. In humans, it is the general condition of a person in mind, body and spirit, usually meaning to be free from illness, injury or pain. The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in 1946 as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." Although this definition has been subjected to controversy, in particular as having a lack of operational value and the problem created by use of the word "complete", it remains the most enduring. Classification systems such as the WHO Family of International Classifications, including the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), are commonly used to define and measure the components of health. Generally, the context in which an individual lives is of great importance on health status and quality of life. It is increasingly recognized that health is maintained and improved not only through the advancement and application of health science, but also through the efforts and intelligent lifestyle choices of the individual and society. According to the World Health Organization, the main determinants of health include the social and economic environment, the physical environment, and the person's individual characteristics and behaviors. As a primary concern of every family and an important role in the society, the need of the community in health services takes place to serve the people and to live an abundant healthy life.

  • Narrative Report on 2004 World Wetlands Celebration
    NARRATIVE REPORT ON 2004 WORLD WETLANDS CELEBRATION THEME: “ From the mountains to the sea – Wetlands at work for us” INTRODUCTION February 2nd of each year is World Wetlands Day (WWD). This also coincides with the celebration of National Wetlands Day as provided for under Proclamation No. 74. In Region IX, the said occasion is usually celebrated the whole of February in order to raise public awareness so that students and local residents will learn to appreciate the values and benefits that they can derive from wetland areas in their own locality. The month long activities were coordinated and facilitated by the Protected Areas, Wildlife and Coastal Zone Management Service (PAWCZMS) in coordination with the different field offices, other sectoral services and attached bureaus of DENR-IX. This year’s theme “From the mountains to the sea – wetlands at work for us” connects all types of wetlands to mountain wetlands. Many of the world's major rivers have their origin in mountain wetlands and more than half of the freshwater used by human population depend upon mountain sources. Secretary Elisea G. Gozun mentioned in one of her press statement that our water source traces its origin from the mountains to the rivers and ends up to the sea. Whatever people do up there will certainly affect those residing below, thus we have to protect this water source. Through this occasion we hope to change the negative perception of people that wetlands are wastelands. HIGHLIGHTS OF ACTIVITIES Zamboanga City Asian Waterfowl Census The conduct of Annual Waterfowl Census (AWC) in different identified wetland areas in the region forms part of the celebration of WWD.

More often than not, such symbols have roots in history or tradition, evolving through time by reason of changing events and circums- tances until at last they are finally shaped into what they are today, emblems of a people's passage through life and evocative of their aspirations, hopes and estimate of themselves and their place in the world. Foremost among these symbols, of course IS the national flag, which is equated with the freedom and sovereignty of a nation Under the national flag are the flags of provinces or cities, all national pnde and the uniqueness of a race or people. The Philippines takes pnde in its own symbols, not the least because these have been created out of their past and bear the stamp of the creativeness of the Filipino himself. I view our heraldry as part the of fabric of our history and tokens of our determination to endure as a race and nation. It is gratifying therefore that this book. Symbols of the State, has been published, for It IS a documentation Philippine of nationhood, the beginnings, the strivings the goals envisioned, the effort exerted to assert our place in the sun as one people ' one nation. Into these symbols may be read the story of our people, the triumphs and defeats, the indomitable spirit which has seen us safely through the storms of a chana- ing world.
