Imperative 47: I-Congress laws for State/Business synergy and Judicial efficiency

    The Philippines' current $4,000 or so per citizen gross domestic yearly production  is far short of 1st World equivalents at $10,000-up.  Two major causes apart from the past factors discussed in previous posts help explain such stumbling block against mass progress.  One is the near-total separation of State and private sector economic activities.  Another is Justice System inefficiency and corruption.  To address the said issues, two additional I-Congress laws have to be passed and implemented:      1.0  Century Business Planning Law: Trillions of pesos in State tax proceeds as well as billions of dollars in foreign exchange receipts and loans are currently managed by State thru yearly budgeting by Congress, the Executive branch and local governments. From Philippine independence year 1946 to present, the leaderships of such State components have been dominated by lawyers.  As everyone knows, lawyers' training and natur...

Imperative 48: 23rd vision: ocean phytoplankton fertilization versus global warming, Part 1 of 3

    Recent significant events have demonstrated the critical role of ocean phytoplankton in sustaining life on earth.  Also known as saltwater algae, ocean 'phytos' are thousands of types of microscopic, unicellular plant-like organisms that float or swim about within sunlit areas of oceanic waters.  Like terrestrial plants, 'phytos'  use CO2, sunlight and various minerals to survive, grow and multiply, and release oxygen into the waters as by-product.  'Phytos' form the base of Earth's oceanic food chain and have been known to supply some 70% of Earth's atmospheric oxygen before industrial times.  Here are certain indicators of 'phytos' critical roles, as sourced from various internet websites:     1) In 1991 the Philippine volcano Mt. Pinatubo blew out 40,000 tons of ejecta such as silica sand, pumice rock fragments, minerals, sulfur dioxide, volcanic glass, ash and fine clay into the atmosphere.  Some twenty million tons of ash and...

Imperative 30: 11th vision: Build-operate-transfer mini hydropower chains

    Eighteen million hectares of Philippine uplands originally contained thousands of mountain streams that drained to 240 major rivers which flowed along 12 million hectares of plains towards the sea.  These days the uplands that rise at average 1,500 meters are so denuded of trees that most of their streams dry up during the country's six summer months.  Even in regions with nearly-balanced rain and dry days year-round, the absence of trees indicates near-total absence of mountain streams.  When the pouring rains come over the next six months, hardly any forest or greenery absorbs and stores upland waters, resulting to heavy topsoil erosion, flash floods of stream waters due to absence of water-storing plant roots, silting and shallowing of lowland rivers, rising frequency of landslides that at times bury entire villages, sudden collapse of upland road sections, and widespread floods in plains, towns and cities.  The combined scourges create terrible tra...
