Marahil ay karamihan sa atin ay nakaranas ng mawalan bigla ng connection sa internet. Minsan ay maghihintay tayo ng ilang araw, at kapag minalas, ay inaabot ng linggo, bago magkaroon muli ng internet connection. Sa kabila nito, pagdating ng bill ay walang pinagbago sa singil ng internet service provider (ISP) gayong ilang araw o linggo kang walang matinong serbisyo.

Puwede namang ireklamo ito para mabawasan ang bayad sa bill pero malaking abala pa at mabusising proseso bago mo makuha ang refund. Ikaw pa ang maaabala gayong ikaw na nga ang naperwisyo.

Davao City 1st district Rep. Paolo Duterte has described as an "alarming trend" the rise child labor cases in the Philippines.

“The incidence of child labor in many parts of the globe, including the Philippines, has tremendously increased over the years. This is an alarming trend. Children should be in classrooms to learn, and not in factories or out in the fields to earn,” Duterte said in a statement Thursday, June 22.

MANILA, Philippines – Nakipagsanib-pwersa sa Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) si Davao City Rep. Paolo Duterte upang isulong ang adhikain nito na wakasan ang child labor sa bansa.

Ito ay hakbang ng kongresista sa pagsusulong ng kaniyang adhikain na proteksyunan ang mga kabataan na siyang matagal na ring ikinakampanya ng DOLE dahil ang child labor ay patuloy na sumisira sa katawan at pag-iisip ng mga kabataang Pinoy.
