REFLECTION:

1. What do you think are the major contributions of science and

technology to Philippine nation building?

The major contributions of science and technology to

Philippine nation-building are linked to its socio-economic
progress and its industrialization. Technology plays a
Fundamental role in wealth creation, improvement of the
quality of life and real economic growth and transformation in
any society.

Today there are no lives without science and technology. today

our lives become modern by the change in science and
technology. they made our works easier. From brush to bed all
are there because of the science and technology. Today our
lives are totally depending on them. we can’t imagine our lives
without them. Now, Technology has become a very important
part of our lives nowadays. During the past few years,
technology has evolved in many ways and is probably without a
doubt better than ever before. People are always trying to find
something new that will improve our lives dramatically. Some
of the creations that have really changed our lives are the
computer, telephone, internet and electronic mail, television,
cell phone and voice mail. Today, there is no work which cannot
be done without the assistance of machines and there is not a
single area of human activity where machines don’t have to be
used. No one can deny the fact that gadgets have not only
simplified our lives but also made them more comfortable and
luxurious. Science and technology play a significant role in the
rise or building up a nation because when people are educated,
they become masters of everything and thus this gives an
important rise in the society. nowadays life with technology is
impossible for the youths they are strongly addicted to it. and
thy learn many new things and pass on to others they are good
users as well as bad users.

 benefit has to been harvested maximum by all
countries. Science and technology have made life a lot easier
and also a lot better with the advancement of medicines and
analysis on diseases.

2. What specific government policy do you like the most in terms

of contributing to the development of science and technology
in the Philippines?

Science and technology policy are one of the

public policies that promotes appropriate funding to
advance scientific and technological research and education,
studies the impact of science and technology upon its citizenry,
and prescribes regulation, if necessary.

The specific government policy that I like the most is

REPUBLIC ACT NO. 2067 AN ACT TO PROMOTE SCIENTIFIC,
ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGICAL RESEARCH,
INVENTION AND DEVELOPMENT

Because, this policy encourages our scientist for innovation in

technological advancement for the purpose of the public.
Advancement in technology would somehow solve some of the
issues like insufficient electrical distribution in all region and
more.

3. What policies do you want the government to implement in the

near future?
We cannot determine what our future holds, however, I want
the government to make education FREE for all who wants to
study in a preparatory, elementary, high school and college.
This includes all, particularly books, uniforms, shoes, and the
needs in school and implements as early as 16, each individual
will own a house which they can move in right after school but
staying with a guardian, or they are at their legal age and
married. They can work for the cost of this house right after
they finished school and began paying taxes. The taxes they
paid for 4 years is enough for them to fully owned a house.
Special task and policies will be given for those disable or has
terminal diseases.
I would also ask the government to allow everyone - no age
limit, with or without experience, to work in any company and

 the companies who would discriminate the abilities of anyone
won't be able to continue their business and immediately ask to
stop their operation.
This is to lessen the number of street kids, uneducated and
lessen the number of crimes for everyone will be able to get a
job. I would want for them to implement the increase of the
salary doubled every year but should let them pay their taxes
regularly for the next generation to experience the same.
