Let's change the constitution

The Philippines has a presidential, unitary, and constitutional republic with a multi-party system. The 1987 Philippine Constitution, the country's current constitution, can be amended through a process called "Constitutional amendment" or "Charter change" (Cha-cha). The process of amending the constitution involves several steps, including proposal, deliberation, and ratification.

The Constitution can be amended by Congress through a vote of three-fourths of all its members, or through a Constitutional Convention called for the purpose, or through people's initiative. The proposed changes must also be ratified by a majority of the votes cast in a plebiscite. The process of amending the constitution is often a contentious issue in the Philippines, with different political groups having varying opinions on the need and the specifics of any proposed changes.

It is long overdue to change the constitution which put the country in its status quo. It is high time to reform. If not now, when? That's the question.

Benefits of reforming the 1987 constitution of the Philippines

  1. Improved governance: A reformed constitution would provide a clearer and more efficient system of governance, ensuring that public officials are held accountable for their actions and that the rights of citizens are protected.
  2. Economic growth: A reformed constitution would help to create a more stable and predictable economic environment, encouraging investment and promoting economic growth.
  3. Better representation: A reformed constitution would ensure that all citizens are represented in government and that their voices are heard in the political process.
  4. Increased autonomy: A reformed constitution would give more power to local governments, allowing them to make decisions that are best for their communities.
  5. Improved social services: A reformed constitution would provide for better access to education, healthcare, and other social services for all citizens, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
  6. Enhanced human rights: A reformed constitution would ensure that the rights of all citizens, including minority groups, are protected and upheld.
  7. Greater accountability: A reformed constitution would make it easier for citizens to hold public officials accountable for their actions and to hold them to account if they fail to perform their duties.
  8. More efficient government: A reformed constitution would make the government more efficient by streamlining bureaucratic processes and reducing red tape.
  9. Stronger democracy: A reformed constitution would help to strengthen democracy by ensuring that citizens have a greater say in how their government operates.
  10. Improved foreign relations: A reformed constitution would help to improve relations with other countries by providing a stable and predictable political environment.

Only the stupid groups like the Makabayan bloc, fake economist Winnie Monsod among others are against constitution reform. Their solution is "vote wisely" which did not work for over 36 years now.

My sugar diet ends today

Actually I started this diet during the last days of January 2023 and that's great! I feel great. By removing added sugars from my diet can have many health benefits, including weight loss, improved heart health, and a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes. I was recently diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis so it is important to stay healthy. So it's very important to remember also that sugar is often hidden in many packaged foods, make sure to read labels and be aware of the different names for sugar, such as high fructose corn syrup, glucose, and dextrose. Additionally, it can be helpful to focus on eating whole foods, such as fruits and vegetables, that are naturally low in sugar.
Matcha drink but no sugar.
Living a life without sugar can be a challenge for many people as sugar is a common ingredient in lots of foods and drinks. It is so difficult to find sugar-free options and some people may experience withdrawal symptoms such as headache, fatigue, and food craving. However, there are more benefits to cutting sugar out of your diet, such as improved blood sugar control, weight loss, and a reduced risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. So the benefits outweighs the kind of life with so many sugar around.
One way to reduce your sugar intake is to limit your consumption of processed foods and drinks. Instead, replace these for whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Also, using natural sweeteners such as honey or maple syrup in small amounts.
Another approach is to gradually reduce your sugar intake over time. So starting soon is better than later. Start by cutting back on sugary drinks, such as soda and juice, and eventually reducing the amount of sugar in your coffee or tea. You can also try reducing your sugar intake by half over the course of a few weeks.
So best of luck on my journey! I hope you do the same, with God's help.

Earthquake preparedness

Introduction

Earthquakes can happen anywhere, at any time. It's important to be prepared in case of an earthquake, and that's why we've put together this comprehensive guide on how to be earthquake prepared.

Inside, you'll find tips on how to create an emergency kit, what to do during and after an earthquake, and how to protect your family and property. So, whether you're a first-time homeowner or a seasoned earthquake veteran, make sure to read through this guide and put our tips into practice. You never know when the next big earthquake will hit.

You're probably wondering how to be earthquake prepared. And that's a good question—because earthquakes can happen anywhere, at any time.

In this comprehensive guide, we'll cover everything you need to know about being earthquake prepared. From creating a disaster plan to stocking up on supplies, we'll walk you through the steps you need to take to make sure you and your loved ones are safe during an earthquake.

The Science Behind Earthquakes

earthquakes happen when two plates of the Earth's crust rub against each other. The force of the movement creates an earthquake.

The Earth's plates are always moving. But sometimes they move too quickly and that's when we get earthquakes. The force of the two plates rubbing against each other creates an earthquake.

Most earthquakes happen along the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire is a horseshoe-shaped area that runs around the Pacific Ocean. It's where most of the Earth's earthquakes happen.

Earthquake Preparedness Basics

The best way to protect yourself and your loved ones from an earthquake is to be prepared. That means having a plan and being ready to take action when the shaking starts.

There are some basic preparedness steps that everyone should take, regardless of where they live:

  • Know the evacuation routes from your home, work and school.
  • If you live in an earthquake-prone area, have a disaster kit packed and ready to go.
  • Make sure you have a fire extinguisher and First Aid kit in your home.
  • Practice drop, cover and hold on. When an earthquake starts, drop to the ground, take cover under a sturdy table or desk, and hold on until the shaking stops.

What to Do During an Earthquake

If you're indoors when the earthquake hits, the first thing you should do is drop to the ground, take cover under a sturdy piece of furniture, and hold on to it. If there isn't a piece of furniture nearby that you can use for cover, sit against an interior wall and protect your head and neck with your hands and arms.

If you're outdoors, find an open area away from buildings, trees, power lines, and anything else that could fall on you. Once you're in an open area, drop to the ground and assume the fetal position to protect your vital organs.

If you're in a moving vehicle, pull over to the side of the road and stop. Once you've stopped, put your parking brake on and stay in the vehicle until the shaking stops.

What to Do After an Earthquake

After an earthquake, it’s important that you check for injuries and get to a safe location. If you are indoors, stay there until the shaking stops. Drop down to the ground, take cover under a sturdy table or desk, and hold on to it until the shaking stops. If there is no table or desk nearby, sit against an interior wall and protect your head and neck with your arms.

If you are outdoors, stay in the open away from buildings, trees, streetlights, and power lines. Once in the open, drop down to the ground and stay there until the shaking stops.

If you are in a moving vehicle, stop as quickly as possible and stay in the vehicle. Do not attempt to drive over a bridge or through an area with downed power lines or damaged buildings.

Conclusion

To sum up, being earthquake prepared means having a plan and being ready for whatever comes your way. It's important to have supplies on hand, know how to turn off utilities, and be aware of potential hazards.

Although it's impossible to predict when or where an earthquake will strike, by being prepared, you can minimize the risk of injury and damage.
