" STATE OF THE NATION ADDRESS"

                   

       

 

          July 22, this day was the SONA of our president, President Benigno Simeon Aquino III. SONA is defined as State of the Nation Address. These can be deliverered by the president. SONA includes the projects and accomplishments of our president. Are there really improvements of the economy of our country?

Based on the SONA of our president, there are improvements on the economy of our country. For the four years in service of our president, there are many improvements that are happening or happened in our locality now.

Our president states that there should be a budget for education; health etc. This was first stated by our honorable president. For me, this idea was so great it’s because we all know that these are very important in one's life. Also, our president made a scholarship program for the indigent Filipinos. There is an increased on the percentage of those students who graduated in high school. From 2006-2008, 25.8%, then 70.9% and approximately to 85%. This shows that the program has a great rule to increase the percentage of students in terms of education.

For me, the best part of the SONA was the proclamation of the 4P's or the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program. This program can help a lot to our fellow Filipinos. It also includes the construction of houses of those who cannot afford to build their own houses. This program plays a vital rule in order to have a better lifestyle and also in order to have a better economy of our country.

                            I am very proud that our president portrays these programs. For the four years in service, he deserves to be on that position. He can handle his position, as a president. I have the pleasure to have our president, President Benigno Simeon Aquino III.

"By Our Simple Ways"

                 

           

            "Gutom at Malnutrisyon: Sama sama nating Wakasan". This is the theme of today's nutrition month.

          Nutrition month happens every year during the month of July and July is considered as the Nutrition Month. We are celebrating nutrition month not here in the Philippines only but internationally. We need to celebrate nutrition month in order for us to understand the different importance of having a healthy body. Nutrition is related to the word healthy. We need to take healthy foods in order to have a healthy body and to have a brighter future. Taking healthy foods regularly like vegetables and fruits can help us to have a strong body.

          Malnutrition is one of the most common problems of our country now. Malnutrition is a faulty nutrition. Meaning we are lack of nutrition and our body is not anymore healthy. We are not physically fit. The reason maybe we are suffering from this condition because we are not eating healthy foods. According to the food pyramid, we must eat Go, Grow, and Glow foods because these are examples of healthy foods.

Due to the problem that I had mentioned a while back, we can help them even in our simple ways. As a citizen and student, we should donate some of our allowance or even healthy foods that can help our fellow youth who are in need. And to those who are suffering from malnutrition, we should conduct a seminar for them to understand the importance of having the proper eating of foods. Those are my simple ways in order to help my fellow youth.
