If there is any good news I heard lately, it is that the Earth is healing quite fast.
Remember the dreaded Ozone Layer in the northern atmosphere? I got a
scientific report that this hole has not shut down and no longer a treat to
humanity. Before the COVID-19 forced the nations on this earth to lockdown,
our air was so polluted. Today the polluted air has disappeared because
people are not going out anymore. This is the positive thing happening with
our planet Earth.
Remember the old saying, “In the end China will win?” Fortunately for the
Chinese people, this was already happening to them, as they have become a
world economic power. However, I started to focus on the relationship of
Communist China and the rest of the nations that COVID-19 has awaken…
most nations have literally surrendered their manufacturing capability to China
because it makes things very cheap. Politicians of almost all nations submit to
China’s cheap labor because this is actually ordained by the Chinese
Communist Party (CCP) that wages are to be controlled so that in the end…
China controls the needs of the world by manufacturing what the world needs
so cheaply. Then later on they raise prices!
What has the COVID-19 debacle taught our world leaders? That surrendering
their manufacturing businesses to China was a huge mistake (In Rome for
instance, all their tourism objects including religious statues for sale are made
in China). Not only for their economy, but today 95 percent of pharmaceutical
companies are based in China and in the end because they now control this
business they can overprice medical products and the world is helpless to
fight this issue.
Remember in 2016 when Donald Trump run for President? His mantra was
“America First” and today, Americans are waking up to this reality that Pres.
Trump was correct. Now, thanks to this coronavirus, nations like Germany,
Sweden, Australia, Japan, the United Kingdom and many African and
European nations have lately realized their mistake in surrendering their
manufacturing to Communist China because of their cheap prices which
actually comes from cheap labor allowed by the CCP. Many of these nations
want China to pay reparations for destroying their economies. This is going to
be a major global issue in the coming year.
While the rest of the world are trying to restart their economy… world leaders
should wake up to the new order after the COVID-19 and this is for them to
restart their manufacturing processes that they once gave up to China.
Perhaps the G-7 should meet up and come up with new guidelines for the
world to follow. Look at Japan… they are paying Japanese companies to
move out of China and set up their businesses in Japan.
At this point, I would like to suggest to the Duterte government to try and get
some Japanese companies to set up in the Philippines. After all, we know too
well that Japanese companies that open in the Philippines are doing very well.
A great example is the Tsuneishi Heavy Industries that build huge cargo
vessels in Balamban, in the Western side of Cebu Island.
I know that Pres. Duterte is very friendly to China… but he should be apprised
as to what China has been doing to the rest of the world while we also restart
our economy.
Meanwhile I got this report from Sen. Cynthia Villar that workers from the
agriculture, construction and manufacturing sectors should be allowed to
return to work to prevent widespread hunger, social unrest and criminality that
may be triggered by the prolonged enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) in
Luzon and other parts of the country.
However, since last week when I suggested to our 24 Senators for them to
immediately stop the construction of the P8.9 billion new Senate building
located in an 18,320 square meter parcel of land owned by the Bases
Conversion and Development Authority, located at the Navy Village in Fort
Bonifacio. But lo and behold… I only heard a deafening silence from our
Senators! I hope that Sen. Cynthia Villar would sponsor a resolution to
immediately stop the construction of this new Senate building as it is ultra
extravagant and the country has no need to house only 24 Senators in a so
expensive edifice. I further suggested that the Senate funds a new hospital
ship that can dock in many places in the Visayas and Mindanao that has no
hospitals at all. But still no word from our Senators! Hoy gising na kayo!
d States, public life is increasingly shut down. The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends a ban on gatherings of
more than 50 people for the next eight weeks in the United States.
Use disposable gloves, gowns and a mask for cleaning and disinfection.
Carefully remove and throw them away immediately after disinfection and
trash disposal.
Provide signage around the office that will keep everyone mindful of
safety: good respiratory hygiene, cleaning recommendations, social
distancing, and symptom checks. The CDC has developed a series of
printable materials and posters for use in community settings.
In the event that you need to coordinate some of your company
to work from home while others from the office, or eventually,
everyone working from home, here are some tips on how to
manage that transition:
Continue to clean all spaces in the office, shared or not, and push
everyone to wipe down their desks and equipment as soon as they’re done
for the day. This is especially important if people are sharing spaces and if
teams switch off working in the office.
Check in with your team early and often to gauge what’s working and
where people need extra support.
Using these guidelines, you can confidently help your staff navigate
the challenges of this global public health issue. Should you have any
questions or concerns about COVID-19 at home, school, or in the
office, you can find more resources provided by the CDC here.
