Social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and TikTok, play a vital role in the dissemination of information. It has has changed the way we communicate, do business, get our daily news fix and so much more. The most obvious pros of using social networks are the ability to instantly connect with people, know real-time news and information discovery, great opportunities for business owners, and for general fun and enjoyment. However, it is no secret that there's also a dark side in using social media platforms. There is the rise of misinformation and fake news. The freedom to post any content given to social media users, paired with the lack of accountability from social media platforms enabled the proliferation of fake news. Chiara mae hortillosa of Barangay
Loboc, Lapuz responsibly uses social media platforms and would like to stop or discredit fake news peddlers. 👩‍💻🧑‍💻

“Damo nga nagkalain-lain nga social media platform Kung sa diin kita makakuha sang mga impormasyon kag isa na diri ami ang Facebook. Ako isa ka Facebook used mag dira ako nagasagap sang mga latest nga balita paagi sa mga shared posts halin sa mga legit nga sources. Kung May makita ako nga mga fake news sa Akon news feed, ginadirekta ko dayon report ang Ano na nga post para Hindi mag lapta.”
- Chiara Mae Hortillosa

We must always remember that social media is a powerful tool since its strong influence in the country can shape society’s opinion on any individual or issue. We all must learn how to responsibly exercise our freedom to post content on our respective platforms, in accordance with the right to free speech, and of expression. We encourage everyone to report or flag posts that are considered false or misleading and we must always put in mind to think before we click. 💻🖱

THE CALL FOR LIGTAS BALIK-ESKWELA! 📣📚

COVID-19 pandemic has brought many challenges and one of which is the access to inclusive and quality education. With the inevitable shift to online and modular classes, both have their own share of advantages and disadvantages. Students had to face an overwhelming increase in academic workload, internet connectivity issues, and lack of physical interaction with peers. This has brought a bigger question of what the goal of our education really is: for learning or for mere compliance?

This is why the call for “LIGTAS BALIK-ESKWELA” is at a height. This is an inclusive campaign that considers the welfare of students, teachers, and school staff by encouraging long-term, sustainable plans of action for education. In the simplest term, this pushes for a safe return to school despite the COVID-19 pandemic. Mary Kelsey Iran M. Kuan of Barangay Loboc, Lapuz is one of those who wishes for face-to-face classes to resume.

“Ang mga gina atubang ko nga problema sang nag sugod ang pandemic labi nagid ang pag sulod sa skwelahan nga naka online class. Hindi ko mapamangkot mayo akon maestro kg maestra tunggod hndi kami ga atubangay. Labi nagid kung madamo amon homework, mabudlay ky may limitasyon nga oras. Pabor ko mag balik sa face to face classes. “

- Mary Kelsey Iran M. Kuan

Learning should not be equated to the number of tasks submitted on time, rather, it should mold students to reflect on the world around them, to go beyond their echo chambers, and challenge what they already know. Education will always be a right rather than a privilege.

DENGUE ALERT! 🚨🦟

As the rainy season is coming, we need to be vigilant and intensify preventive measures against illnesses, especially Dengue. The Iloilo City Government with the leadership of Mayor Jerry Treñas highly encourages residents to do our part in protecting our children, our family and community against vector-borne diseases through constant clean-up in our surroundings and being responsible in throwing our garbage properly to avoid adding more breeding places for the vectors. Jeje Juanon of Barangay Loboc, Lapuz continuously practices habits that will protect us all in our homes and our community.

“Bilang isa ka residente kag 4Ps parent leader, ang isa ka programa namon sang akon mga miyembro amo ang kada sabado nga clean up drive sang nagkalain-lain nga area sa amon barangay. Ginhawa had ko gid permi ang akon member nga magparticipate sa Amon nga hilikoton. Paagi sini malikawan ngayon sa Barangay ang pag taas sang kaso sa dengue. Kag bilang isa Iloy, dapat magasugod ang amo Ni nga hilikuton sa aton sulod sang balay para mapalayo man sila sa tanan nga balatian ilabi na gid sa dengue.”
- Jeje Juanon

Let us all be reminded that prevention is always better than cure. Ilonggos, stay alert and always be safe!
