Elpidio Quirino

Image
  Elpidio Quirino’s story begins in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, where he was born on November 16, 1890, to a modest family that prized education as a path out of hardship. He worked his way through school, eventually earning a law degree from the University of the Philippines. That climb shaped his empathy for ordinary Filipinos and his belief that nation-building starts with opportunity education, dignity of work, and a government that remembers the poor and provincial as part of its core. His career traced the nation’s own trajectory from colony to republic. As a lawyer, assemblyman, and senator, Quirino learned the machinery of governance and the delicate art of compromise. He served in the postwar cabinet Finance and Foreign Affairs before becoming Vice President under Manuel Roxas. When Roxas died in 1948, Quirino stepped into the presidency, carrying the weight of rebuilding a country scarred by war and personal grief he had lost close family during World War II, a private tragedy tha...

The 2025 National Children’s Month Celebration with the theme “OSAEC-CSAEM Wakasan: Kaligtasan at Karapatan ng Bata, Ipaglaban!” really give an important message to everyone. In our time today, many kids are using internet and not all of them is safe. Some bad people take advantage and do bad things to children online. This celebration remind us that we must protect every child from those danger and never ignore the small signs of abuse. For me, I can say that the government are doing effort to keep children safe. They have laws and program that focus on protecting children from abuse and online harm. The DSWD and DICT also help in spreading awareness about OSAEC and CSAEM, which is really good. But still, there are some people who don’t follow the rules and that’s why more action and support is needed. Also, parents and teachers should always guide their kids because they are the first protector. Children must know how to be safe online and not just trust anyone they talk to. Communit...

Teachers are one of the most important people in our lives. They don’t just teach us lessons from books they guide us, support us, and help us grow as individuals. This year’s Teacher’s Month theme, “My Teacher, My Hope,” reminds us how teachers truly become heroes in shaping our dreams and building our future. They sacrifice so much of their time and energy to make sure we learn and understand, even when we sometimes make things difficult for them. I am truly thankful for everything my teachers have done.

blog post #2 Climate Change and Resiliency of Filipinos

Image
Climate change is one of the biggest problem we are facing today, and the Philippines is one of the most affected country. Since our country is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire and the typhoon belt, we always experience sudden disasters like typhoons, floods, and landslides. At the same time, we also face slow changes such as the rising of sea levels, hotter days, and even soil erosion. These issues affect not only the environment but also the lives and safety of many Filipinos. One main reason why this is happening is because of human activities. Too much cutting of trees, throwing garbage anywhere, and burning fuels that cause smoke makes the Earth warmer. This is why typhoons are stronger and droughts last longer. Even if the Philippines contribute only a small part of the global carbon emission, we are still the one who suffer a lot because of our location. Farmers and fishermen are the ones who really struggle because their income depends on the land and sea. But even with this...
