Assignment no. 7

Here are the 3 areas related to Human Resource Management that I have identified.

1."Rice production since 2000 increased an average of 4.07% a year, twice the population growth rate. By promoting natural planning and female education, we have curbed population growth to 2.04% during our administration, down from the 2.36 in the 1990's, when artificial birth control was pushed. Our campaign spreads awareness of responsible parenthood regarding birth spacing. Long years of pushing contraceptives made it synonymous to family planning. Therefore informed choice should mean letting more couples, who are mostly Catholics, know about natural family planning."

-My point here is not about the increase of rice production but on the topic of Natural Family planning. I could say that this is related to Human Resource Management because if all the couples here in the Philippines knew natural family planning, then maybe there would be a chance that many people could get the job they wanted because there would be a lot of vacancies(because of less population). And natural family planning would really help us because it would lessen the burden of parents in trying to find something to feed for their children.

2."In training, 7.74 million took technical and vocational courses over the last seven years, double the number in the previous 14 years. In 2007 alone, 1.7 million graduated. Among them are Jessica Barlomento now in Hanjin as supply officer, Shenve Catana, Marie Grace Comendador, and Marlyn Tusi, lady welders, congratulations."

-Here, we see that because of the sprouting of the many technical and vocational courses in schools nationwide, many under-priviliged high school graduates have had the chance to enroll in college, thus multiplying the chance of people getting jobs in the future.

3."Pinagsasama-sama natin ang mga programa ng DSWD, DOH, GSIS, SSS at iba pang lumalaban sa kahirapan sa isang National Social Welfare Program para proteksyonan ang pinaka-mahihirap mula sa pandaigdigang krisis, and to help those whose earnings are limited by illness, disability, loss of job, age and so on-through livelihood projects, microfinance, skills and technology transfer, emergency and temporary employment, pension funds, food aid and cash subsidies, child nutrition and adult health care, medical missions, salary loans, insurance, housing programs, educational and other savings schemes, and now cheaper medicine-Thanks to Congress"

-This program of the government is very good, because this helps the people, which are the most important resource of all. It helps the poor people in their life by aiding them in many aspects, which are stated above.

P.S. I didn't watch the SONA, I just read it. But I saw it in the news a little.

God Bless.
