DATA COLLECTION FOR POST KAP SURVEY ON THE REGION- SPECIFIC RADIO CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED Data collection for a Post Survey on Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP) on FP on the region-specific radio campaign started on June 20, 2006 through TSAP-FP research contractor TNS Trends. The survey is a follow up to the Post-Campaign KAP Survey conducted by TNS Trends last October 2004 (Project Lucent 2). The survey aims to assess the reach and recall of TSAP-FP’s regional radio campaign. It also aims to find out if there have been any changes in target audience knowledge, attitudes and practices related to family planning since the Survey conducted last October 2004. As in the October 2004 Post-Campaign Survey, the survey covers TSAP-FP project areas in the urban areas of Metro Manila, Cebu and Davao and the Key Cities in Low CPR Regions (Regions V and VIII), namely, Naga City, Legazpi City, Ormoc City and Tacloban City.

The Ohio State University, Ph.D., 1961 Political Science, public administration University Microfilms, Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan THE CONFLICT OF POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC PRESSURES IN PHILIPPINE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for tjie Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Harold Edmund Brazil, B, S., M. A» The Ohio S tate U niversity 1961 Approved by Adviser Co-Adviser Department of Political Science PREFACE The purpose of this study is to examine the National Economic Council of the Philippines as a focal point of the contemporary life of that nation. The claim is often made that the Republic of the Philippines, by reason of American tutelage, stands as the one nation in the Orient that has successfully established itself as an American-type democracy. The Philippines is confronted today by serious econcanic problems which may threaten the stability of the nation. From the point of view of purely economic considerations, Philippine national interests would seem to call for one line of policy to cope with these economic problems. Yet, time and again, the Philippine government has been forced by political considerations to foUcw some other line of policy which was patently undesirable from an economic point of view. The National Economic Council, a body of economic experts, has been organized for the purpose of form ulating economic p o licy and recommend­ ing what is economically most desirable for the nation.

  • Ichikawa WHO Award 2004 Marikina
    Report of Visit to Marikina City Introduction In 2004, Ichikawa City received the “WHO Awards for Healthy Cities 2004”.This award was presented for the “Program about Diet Improvement and Nutrition at a Health Center” and the “Plan to Improve Smoker’s Manners with Cooperation from the Whole Community”, suggested in cooperation with Marikina City in the division “Promotion of healthy diet and physical activity through urban planning”. To date, Ichikawa City has entered an exchange program with other healthy cities in the world that are committed to futuristic endeavors. On this occasion, we thought that the effort in Marikina City serves as a useful reference and we decided to become partner cities. Prior to this visit, in May 2005, we received a mission consisting of four persons from Marikina City, and we held the exchange program to inspect Ichikawa City’s efforts as a health city, focusing on the diet improvement program and the Citizens Manners Act. The objective of this visit is to inspect and evaluate the specific efforts of Healthy City Marikina. The outline of Marikina City Marikina City makes up about 3.5 per cent of the gross area of metropolitan Manila, and it is located about 16 kilometers from Metro Manila. Its population is approximately 420,000. The young population consisting of children aged 5 to 20 in both genders is high, which differs from Japan’s aging society with fewer children. The gross area is about 21.98 square kilometers. The inner city is divided into 15 areas called Barangay and each Barangay has its own independent budget.

  • Earth Day Marks Need for Collective Efforts on Solving Crises by Ma
    UPPE PAGE BANNE EDITORI CARTOO 1 R AL N STORY STORY PAG LOWE Strategic Communication 1/1 25 April 2020 and Initiatives Service Page Date Earth Day marks need for collective efforts on solving crises By Ma. Cristina Arayata April 22, 2020, 7:18 pm https://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1100699 Image grabbed from DENR's Facebook page MANILA – Every April 22, Earth Day is being observed to demonstrate support for environmental protection. But with the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic plaguing millions of people around the world, collective action among countries and stakeholders is of paramount importance. For the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Secretary Roy Cimatu, comprehensive and concerted action is a must. In his Earth Day message shared on DENR's Facebook page, he said survival is at stake in both Covid-19 and climate change. "The urgency of the need for concerted and comprehensive action, without waiting for the problem to peak or to impact millions more of people, is the same," he added. With the Covid-19 pandemic, Cimatu said now is the perfect time for people to ponder the need for collective action. "The damage from Covid-19 and climate change bring about destruction and chaos to any nation. On the one hand, with Covid-19, we are faced with an immediate gripping fear of losing more lives; on the other hand, with climate change, we are faced with rising sea levels, saline intrusion into aquifers, droughts, floods, and the results will impact billions of people, as well as biodiversity.
