Towards A More Upight Country

The Philippines is a country located in Southeast Asia. It's a dazzling country where eye-catching views, spots, and places can be located. However, there are many problems in the country. Problems such as poverty, inflation, discrimination, and many more issues are not new when it comes to the people. As citizens, it's also our responsibility to contemplate and reflect on ways to lessen, prevent, or solve our country's controversial issues and problems.


Achieving a more upright country is important because of its vulnerable location, high rates of poverty, and the growing effects of climate change. The Philippines is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, which means that natural catastrophes occur frequently. These disasters are getting worse because of rising sea levels, unpredictable weather patterns, and other issues related to climate change. Rapid urbanization and ill-planned infrastructure contribute to the severity of these disasters, making recovery difficult for many areas.


Through disaster risk reduction laws like the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Act of 2010, which attempts to enhance preparedness, response, and recovery, the Philippine government has taken action to address these issues. International cooperation and support for global climate initiatives have also contributed vital resources and knowledge.

However, significant challenges remain, including weak infrastructure, limited funding, and the unpredictable nature of climate change, which complicates long-term planning. Public awareness and inclusion of all societal sectors in resilience efforts are also areas that need further improvement. 


In conclusion, building a more upright Philippines involves a combined approach that addresses the root causes of vulnerability, strengthens community and institutional capacities, and develops a culture of preparedness and sustainability. Despite progress, sustained efforts are necessary to ensure that the Philippines can effectively withstand and recover from future disasters. While progress has been made, the challenges are formidable, and continuous effort is essential to ensure that the Philippines can effectively withstand and recover from the impacts of natural and human-induced disasters.

You Can't Spell Awesome Without Me!

          Dear Reader, let me tell you some things about myself. I’m Hannah, a fifteen-year-old girl, living in Bulala, Vigan City. Like many teenagers, I’m still finding more things about myself. I still can’t believe that this is my last year as a junior high school student. It feels like I just graduated from elementary, and three more quarters from now, I’m going to hopefully graduate junior high school as a special science class student. Time really does fly by fast. I’m a girl who loves to listen to music. I find music relaxing and soothing to my ears and mind. Oh, and I also play the guitar and ukulele. Sometimes, I just randomly grab the guitar or uke and randomly sing some song in my room. Apart from loving music, I also have a small passion for reading and writing. My favorite book is called ‘The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo’, written by Taylor Jenkins Reid. I like making up fictional stories and jotting them down whenever I have a story idea at the most random time of th

                                Teachers are the cornerstone of the society, shaping the minds of future generations. They are the reasons why we have professionals today. Teachers are the important building blocks of society, ensuring that every student has been taught a lesson.
