  • How HERO Did It
    How HERO did it. Now it can be told. HERO is the Ham Emergency Radio Operations formally launched upon the unveiling of the logo design contest winner during the 82nd Anniversary of the Philippine Amateur Radio Association (PARA) Inc. – the Philippine national association for the amateur radio service. Preparations HERO was activated on December 4, 2015 when it became imminent that typhoon Hagupit (local name Ruby) will make landfall somewhere in the Visayas region. It was to be a live test for HERO with Super Typhoon Yolanda in mind. Upon its activation, a lot of traffic was devoted to trying to muster hams on the 40-meter band (the PARA center of frequency on 40 meter is at 7.095 MHz). Members were advised to start building up on their redundant power supplies such as generators, solar panels, batteries and other imaginable means available as power sources. Owing to the large swathe of typhoon Ruby, it was expected to be almost like Haiyan/Yolanda. There were striking similarities. Initially, Districts 4, 5 and 9 as well as Districts 6, 7 and 8 were alerted. Both Ruby and Yolanda came from the lower quadrant of the typhoon belt. Both were packing winds more than 200 kph near the center. Both had huge footprint or diameter, with Ruby estimated to be around 600 kilometers. Both were expected to generate 3 to 6 meters storm surges and were definitely considered dangerous to lives and properties. Government was not leaving anything to chance and there were plans to forcibly evacuate people along the typhoon track especially those in the coastal area.

  • The Socio-Economic Impact of the Help for Catubig Agricultural Advancement Project (Hcaap)
    [Ocaña *, Vol.7 (Iss.5): May 2019] ISSN- 2350-0530(O), ISSN- 2394-3629(P) DOI: https://doi.org/10.29121/granthaalayah.v7.i5.2019.830 Social THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THE HELP FOR CATUBIG AGRICULTURAL ADVANCEMENT PROJECT (HCAAP) Eduardo L. Ocaña Jr. *1 *1 Department of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Communication, University of Eastern Philippines, Catarman, Northern Samar, Philippines 6400 Abstract Development must not only focus on economic growth expressed in rosy figures of GDP and GNP. The economic gains of the rich as expected by economists, must “trickle down” down to the grass roots. It is along this reality that prompted the national government and development planners to look for strategy in which the marginalized which constitute the biggest number of the population in the Third World countries become recipients of development initiatives. Northern Samar, one of the poorest provinces in the Philippines, has been a recipient of the Help for Catubig Agricultural Advancement Project (HCAPP), a project of 5.2 billion yen or 3.4 billion in pesos allocating 2.4 billion pesos alone to irrigate 4, 550 hectares of agricultural lands to spur agricultural development in the Catubig Valley area of Northern Samar. This research aimed to determine the level of socio-economic impact of the HCAAP and related problems. The areas covered by the HCAAP were the Municipalities of Catubig and Las Navas both located in the Catubig Valley. A descriptive-evaluative study, utilized quantitative techniques like survey employing interview schedule for data collection and analyses. The respondents were beneficiaries from Municipality of Catubig, and Las Navas.
