Activity Sheet

Activity 01: Read and answer the following statements below.

1. Write your own view about the significance of the short article below.

In the Philippines, a pervasive culture of migration has led millions to seek opportunities
abroad, particularly since an economic downturn in the 1970s. The government has long
embraced exporting labor as official economic policy, but over time, the focus has shifted: first
to protecting workers overseas and much more recently to linking migration and development.
This article explores the evolution of Filipino migration policy and trends.

- Faced with the fact of the easier and prosperous life that most Filipino people have chosen to
go abroad. This Filipino way of thought has led to an increase in the number of Filipinos doing
the same, and our government has made this official economic policy. Our government has
addressed this problem since there was a rivalry and rollout, which included unsafe working
practices and employer violence. They created organizations, programs, and laws to defend and
benefit them, which is critical. Since they are not in their own country, who will defend them if
anything goes wrong? Having that kind of work is no laughing matter, with so much hardwork,
patience, and tears shed by our kababayans in their quest for a better life abroad. They deserve
to be protected and treated well. Although the government continues to improve OFW security,
the Philippines has become a major labor exporter in Asia. In a time of amazing growth, the
Philippine economy was connected in economic terms with migration and development,
particularly transfers.

 2. Find an article about what we can and cannot learn from the history of world population.
Submit and below it, write brief impression.

“HUMAN POPULATION”

https://www.britannica.com/explore/savingearth/population

Population, in human biology, the whole number of inhabitants occupying an area (such as a
country or the world) and continually being modified by increases (births and immigrations)
and losses (deaths and emigrations). As with any biological population, the size of a human
population is limited by the supply of food, the effect of diseases, and other environmental
factors. Human populations are further affected by social customs governing reproduction and
by the technological developments, especially in medicine and public health, which have
reduced mortality and extended the life span.

“As the world’s population rises and demands more access to resources, the issues associated
with the commons become more severe.”

- Based on the article, as the human population grows, we humans demand for more
resources and needs in order to survive. This may lead to many issues such as hunger,
lack of resources, damaging our environment and worst case scenario others may
experience death. Nowadays, social customs governing reproduction and technological
developments affects the human population because it is our society and people need.
Even though the main goal of it is beneficial to us, there is also a negative effect on us
and also in our environment. For me, saving human lives and human population growth
is okay, but we should also remember what is our responsibilities regarding to the issues
we are facing right now.
