THE SEARCH FOR TOP PERFORMING LGUs
ON RABIES PREVENTION AND CONTROL
PROGRAM FOR A RABIES-FREE CAVITE IN 2020
IN relation to the Cavite Search for
the Top Performing LGUs on Rabies
Prevention and Control Program,
the Provincial Validation Team
rendered the on-site validation in
cities/municipalities who obtained
a rating of 70% and above based
on a table assessment conducted
by the Provincial Assessment Team
on November 12-16, 2018 at the
municipalities of GMA, Noveleta,
Amadeo, Magallanes, Ternate and
cities of Cavite, Imus, Dasmariñas
and Tagaytay.

The search aims to
increase the people’s awareness
on rabies prevention and control,
encourage people to become
responsible pet owners, and
increase the participations of non-
government organizations, civil
society organizations, and people’s
organization. Likewise, the activity
intends to strengthen LGU efforts of
providing personnel who will fight
against the eradication of rabies and
recognize city/municipal officials
and employees who have displayed
outstanding work performance

and other dangers in the world

added.

On the other hand,
Department of Information,
Communication
and
Technology (DICT) Assistant
Secretary,
Atty.
Carlos
Mayorico E. Caliwara said
that technology has replaced
traditional parenting so parents
must continue to educate
themselves for them to properly
guide their children.
M e a n w h i l e ,
psychologist and guidance
counselor,
Dr.
Michelle
Alignay, shared, “One drawback
of technology is that children
nowadays do not know how
to wait because digital media
has taught them to get what
they want and what they need
to know immediately. Hence,
children and youth become
used to instant gratification, not
realizing that patience builds
up character and discipline.”

Kids’ survey

Moreover, the issue of
child online safety was tackled
by Atty.
Maria Michelle
Munoz,
United
Nations
Children’s Fund (UNICEF)
Child
Online
Protection
Coordinator, who presented
the results of the Global Kids
Online survey conducted in
selected barangays in Metro
Manila and nearby province in
Pampanga.

The survey results
showed the online use and
access of children aged 9-17.
Global Kids Online aims to
educate and protect children
on online sexual abuse and
exploitation (OSAEC).

Some of the findings
indicate that the average age
of first internet use among
participants in the survey was
9 years old. Almost all children
surveyed are hooked online and
spend some precious time in
their daily lives accessing the
internet, most of the children
access the internet at home, in
school, coffee shops or malls,
cybercafes and Pisonet, and a
few through the mobile phone.
Moreover,
most
children
often used a smartphone and a
tablet to go online. In general,
children in the younger age
group (9-11 years old) had
limited use of devices to access
the internet compared to older
age groups, and most children
connect to the internet by
themselves, while those who
cannot connect on their own
were helped by their parents.

Most popular sites
visited by children include
social media networks and
search engine platforms, such
as Facebook, Youtube, Google,
Yahoo, and online games,
among others.

The
survey
also
identified the risks experienced
by children when they go
online, such as exposure
to
exploitative
strangers,
cyberbullying, cybersex and
other forms of harm.

In summary, over-all
internet safety is assured among
Filipino children through their
own proactive stance and
through parental, teacher and
peer mediation. (DSWD)
