    Northwestern University Educational Resource Center AUTHOR: RAPACON, ALEJANDRO JR. G. TITLE: Quality of Service of Local Civil Registry Offices Year: 2014 Acc. No.: 661322 Abstract: This study assessed the quality of service of Local Civil Registry Offices (LCROs) in Ilocos Norte by analyzing the expectations and perceptions of the LCRO employees and their clients on the quality of services they provided. The descriptive design was followed adapting the SERVQUAL research instrument of Parasuraman et al (1995). Involved in the study were 76 employees of the 23 LCROs in Ilocos Norte and 248 clients. Frequency count, percentage, and weighted mean were used to analyze and interpret the data gathered. The LCRO employees are in the middle adulthood stage of development, predominantly females, most of them are college graduates, who have spent considerable years of service in the government, permanent as to tenure, but have not been sent to trainings, conferences, and seminars. Very few employees are working in the LCROs. Majority of the LCROs do not have annual fund allocation for capital outlay. Funds are allocated for trainings, seminars and conventions; however, half of the staff never attended training for the past five years. Only one LCRO has allocated funds for social services. Majority of the LCROs is equipped with desktop computers, printers and laptops. All of the LCROs have filling cabinets. On the other side, majority of the LCROs do not have photocopiers. Typewriters are still used by most of the LCROs. Majority of the LCROs are using electric fans to ventilate the office. The expectations of the employees were all very high along the five service quality dimensions.

Parilla Northwestern University, Philippines DOI: 10.6007/IJARBSS/v3-i7/75 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6007/IJARBSS/v3-i7/75 Abstract: OTOP Philippines supports micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to manufacture, offer and market distinctive products or services through the use of indigenous raw materials and local skills and talents. It is a government program that supports micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to manufacture, offer, and market distinctive products or services through the use of indigenous raw materials and local skills and talents. Here in Ilocos Norte, One-Town- One-Product program is being spearheaded by the local chief executives of the different municipalities and towns and the Department of Trade and industry. Through several local ordinances, the different towns and cities have identified their own products under the program which will receive the support of the government and of the Department of Trade and Industry. This research aimed to find out the economic impact of One Town One Product program of the government in the Province of Ilocos Norte. The OTOP owners in Ilocos Norte are already adult, dominated by college graduate and married women. Most of them have not attended seminars and trainings and are not members of professional organizations. Majority of the OTOP businesses in Ilocos Norte have existed for 16-20 years and are engaged in manufacturing and most of them are sole proprietor.

  • Indications of Recruitment Enhancement in the Sea Urchin Tripneustes Gratilla Due to Stock Restoration Efforts
    Proceedings of the 11th International Coral Reef Symposium, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, 7-11 July 2008 Session number 22 Indications of Recruitment Enhancement in the Sea Urchin Tripneustes gratilla Due to Stock Restoration Efforts M. A. Juinio-Meñez1 , D. Pastor1 and H. G. Bangi2 1Marine Science Institute, College of Science, University of the Philippines, Diliman, Quezon City 110 2College of Aquatic Sciences and Applied Technology, Mariano Marcos State University, Currimao 2903, Ilocos Norte, Philippines Abstract Field monitoring activities were conducted in various sites in five provinces in northwestern Philippines in 2004-2007 to assess the impacts of restocking and grow-out culture of hatchery-reared Tripneustes gratilla juveniles. High incidences of recruits (<4.0 cm test diameter) were noted during the last quarter of 2005 through the first quarter of 2006. Very high densities (up to 460 individuals 100 m-2) were recorded in Lucero, Bolinao, Pangasinan, which is the site for sea urchin broodstock and grow-out cages. Eighty percent of the total density was comprised of recruits of the year. In Sinait, Ilocos Sur, total density and incidence of recruits were significantly higher (up to 67 individuals 100 m-2) than two sites in Ilocos Norte where there was no grow-out culture of sea urchins. In Poro Pt., La Union sea urchins increased after the initiation of grow-out culture activities in 2005 and peaked at 14 individuals 100 m-2 in 2007. The positive correlation in the density of recruits and adults in four sites in Bolinao together with the higher densities and incidence of recruits in different grow-out areas concur with the hypothesis that the aggregation of adults in grow-out culture areas enhanced benthic recruitment.
