1. NSO-EMPLOYMENT RATE ESTIMATED AT 92.9 PERCENT IN JULY 2011
Employment rate in the Philippines is now rapidly increasing, but sad to say it is not enough.
Because of the high population we had now. There is basic reason why there are a lot of people who had no work, because of tiredness; some say there is no work available, temporary illness/disability Bad weather, waiting for rehire/job recall. It shows that the Filipino’s are lazy, though the government gives their best to increase the employment

1. EMPLOYMENT RATE ESTIMATED AT 92.9 PERCENT IN JULY 2011
Results from the July 2011 Labor Force Survey (LFS)
http://www.census.gov.ph/data/pressrelease/2011/lf1103tx.html
Philippine unemployment rate increased to 7.1 percent while the underemployment rate went up to 19.1 percent in July. The NSO data showed the number of unemployed Filipinos in July 2011 was estimated at 2.8 million. Most of the unemployed were male, between 15 to 24 years old and only attained secondary education. The number of underemployed persons in July was estimated at 7. 1 million. More than half were reported as visibly underemployed or working less than 40 hours a week and were employed in the agriculture and services sectors. Last year, unemployment was at 7 percent while underemployment was at 17.9 percent. We really had a high employment rate but most Filipinos insist that we had higher unemployment rate because the fact is, some are just lazy to look for job.
2. Why are some Filipino children not in school
http://dirp4.pids.gov.ph/ris/pn/pidspn1116.pdf
Some Filipino children cannot go to school. First is because of poverty and labor. Children who belong to a poor family had no money for school and end up working to contribute income in their family. Next is the determinants of nonparticipation and lack of interest in school. Some factors that affect interest in school are; Children belonging to families with many children and Children older than six years old who are out-of-school who are more likely to lack personal interest compared to six-year-old children who are not in school. Last is the policy issue. Most students lack interest because they do not want to follow school policies because of fashion. Some wanted dyed hair and some liked earrings or tattoos.

• The memorandum order no. 22 was all about directing the Philippine Council for sustainable development to undertake the necessary preparation for an effective country participation in the twenty-year review of the 1992 United Nation conference on environment and development (UNCED) commitments and the United Nations conference on sustainable development 2012. This memo tackles about the needs in preparations and the cooperation of every Filipinos in government sectors, and civil sectors. It needs to have the collaboration of government agencies and the role of civil in society, business and labor sector and the fund in this conference. This review aims to have a green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication and the institutional framework for sustainable development. It will give us the knowledge on how to prioritize and give importance in our country. It will give us knowledge on how we need to develop our country in productivity and progressive way. How we promote our product, to adopt concrete gaols and to make our country and lay a foundation for prosperity, peace and sustainability.
• EMPLOYMENT QUALITY CONTINUES TO IMPROVE IN JULY. This was the press release from the department of national economic development last September 16, 2011. I was happy to know that Filipinos are now having a higher employment rate. According to NSO the quality of employment continued to improve this year, and for the month of July 2011 which was 37.1 million, the employment rate rise to 2.4 percent which is higher than the employment rate last July 2010 which was 36.2 million. It’s nice to know that we are improving and our country was improving when it comes to employment. If this will continue of getting higher and higher rate of employment, our country will also improve and lessen the unemployment problem. This employment performance in terms of class of workers implies that the quality of employment in the country has improved during in this period.
The NEDA official said that the higher unemployment and underemployment rates indicate that policy interventions of the government must focus not only in the creation of more employment, but also in generating more decent, productive, and quality employment. In this period of slowing global economy and slowing external demand for Filipino goods and services, quality employment should be able to provide adequate income. Aside from keeping our workers and their families out of poverty, this will also boost household consumption and domestic demand in general. It will help the country boost into a well-known and productive country.
• Exports rebound in July 2011 from previous month, this was another press release of the department of economic and development last September 19, 2011. According to the latest report of the national statistics office the exports of agro based product grew at 50.2 percent from the same month last year. It is good news for the exporters of agro based products and so with the others. It would help them more well-known and their product will be more on demand. It will also help our country to promote our product. The investors will be more willing to invest in our country if they are satisfied with the Filipino products.

1.RDC asks GOs to support info campaign on K + 12
As I have read unto this link, that there should be an additional two years in the curriculum. Somehow I am not agree with this because it will only add the sufferings of our parents or guardians who are supporting our studies, but on the other side, the reason of this maybe to enhance and upgrade more the education here in the Philippines.
2.Leading Economic Indicator (LEI) resumes upward trajectory
in the third quarter 2011
This is a good indicator that the economy of the Philippines was somehow improving and growing up. Our president strive to improve the economy of our country despite the fact that the last years administration was so corrupt and the problems are all within his hand.
3.Why Are some Filipino Children not in School?
The mere reason of this problem for me is the poverty. Not all children are able to go school. It is because their parents cannot support the study of their children. And also the fact that not all parents are employed or had an stable job for the support of the needs of the family.

2. SUMMER - TEACHING
Reading is always a part of daily life. We read news, notes, stories, announcements, prayers, instructions and many more. But I have observed that reading for some students is not an enjoyable pastime anymore because of so many factors. Students’ interests are also diverted to the use of technology-surfing the internet, conferencing, chatting via Friendster and Facebook accounts, and using gadgets namely cellular phones, iPods, mp4’s, psp, and other electronic devices.
