On the assumption that you heard/read the SONA of the President yesterday, July 28, 2008, identify at least 3 areas related to Human Resource Mangement and explain how these areas can improve our quality of life.
In this year's SONA, i found 3 general areas related to Human Resource Management that can improve our quality of life. These are the following:
Economic Growth and Job Creation.
This centers on interventions to promote growth in the economy, which will lead to increased income and more and better job opportunities. These interventions include the promotion of trade and investments, agribusiness, sustainable mining, housing construction, tourism, and infrastructure development. It also includes measures to promote labor and employment and ensure the Filipino worker’s welfare. Equally important are the Government’s interventions to protect the environment and sustain economic development.
Energy.
The focus is energy independence ("In an environment of soaring world oil prices, we shall ensure fair and reasonable energy prices. Towards this end, the Government pursued programs and projects to develop alternative and indigenous energy sources and collaborated with various stakeholders in the energy sector to increase local energy supply"). Specifically, discussions focus on reforms undertaken to achieve efficiency and self-sufficiency in the power sector and eventually lower the drain on government resources.
Education and Youth Opportunity.
Covers the administration’s accomplishments in the provision of free and quality education, which is an integral strategy in the fight against poverty. The anti-corruption and good governance portion likewise looks into what Government has achieved in its efforts to weed out corruption through good governance.
All these measures lead up to the attainment of the President’s vision for the country, that by 2010, the Philippines will be well on its way to achieving the hallmarks of a modern society. This, despite the global threats of rising oil and fuel prices, of climate change, and of terrorism, among others, which will challenge us more as we move towards the attainment of the vision of a modern society.
