Within these 17 regions in the Philippines, there are 42,027 barangays, 1486 municipalities, 148 cities, 82 provinces. It has a democratic form of government and the freedom of speech is upheld by law. English is the "lingua franca" and is the mode of instruction in all high schools, colleges and universities. Laws and contracts are written in English.
The Philippines has been a "decentralized" form of government since 1991, contrary to what most Filipinos think. Ever since the creation of Republic Act 7160, each LGU is responsible for its own domain. Even the smallest LGU the barangay creates its own Budget. It is not dependent on handouts from the city, municipality or province. "IMPERIAL MANILA IS A MYTH!", it does not exist anymore. The Philippine budget formulation system is not centralized. "Budgetary planning has been DECENTRALIZED since 1991". It is the responsibility of each LGU to submit their budgetary needs for review. Failure to submit is the problem.
Dietary supplement is a product that contains vitamins, minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino acids, enzymes, and/or other ingredients intended to supplement the diet. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has special labeling requirements for dietary supplements and treats them as foods, not drugs.
Manufacturers and distributors of dietary supplements and dietary ingredients are prohibited from marketing products that are adulterated or misbranded. That means that these firms are responsible for evaluating the safety and labeling of their products before marketing to ensure that they meet all the requirements of DSHEA and FDA regulations.
Wars of ancient history were about possessions, territory, power, control, family, betrayal, lover's quarrel, politics and sometimes religion.
But we are in the Modern era and supposedly more educated and enlightened .
Think about this. Don't just brush off these questions.
Why is RELIGION still involved in WARS? Isn't religion supposed to be about PEACE?
Ask yourself; What religion always campaign to have its religious laws be accepted as government laws, always involved in wars and consistently causing WARS, yet insists that it's a religion of peace?
WHY??
There are only two kinds of people who teach tolerance:
The Bullies. They want you to tolerate them so they can continue to maliciously deprive you. Do not believe these bullies teaching tolerance, saying that it’s the path to prevent hatred and prejudice.
The victims who are waiting for the right moment to retaliate. They can’t win yet, so they tolerate.
History of Plaridel, Lipa City, Batangas, Philippines
The City of Lipa, or Lungsod ng Lipa, is a first-class city found at the center of Batangas province in the Southern Tagalog Region of the Philippines. The city stands on a valley between the mountains of Malarayat and Makulot. Bordering it are the municipalities of Sto. Tomas to the northeast, Padre Garcia and Rosario to the southeast, Ibaan and San Jose in the southwest, Cuenca, Mataas Na Kahoy, and Taal Lake to the west, Balete and Malvar in the northwest, and to the east by San Pablo City in Laguna and the municipality of San Antonio in Quezon province. Lipa City lies 78 kilometers south of Manila, with a travel time of approximately 90 minutes accessed by the South Luzon Expressway and the Southern Tagalog Access Road Tollway (STAR Tollway).
Lipa City was largely an agricultural city, with the famous Batangas coffee bean as one of its major products. However, in its bid to become an urbanized city, Lipa has moved away from an agri-based economy to become one of the province’s important economic and institutional centers.
The presence of LIMA Industrial Estate (economic zone), Nestle Philippines, and other multi-national companies have set Lipa as a major industrial center in Central Batangas. The increasing number of banks, lending investors, credit cooperatives, and large shopping centers has contributed to the city’s growing financial and commercial importance. The presence of numerous national government agencies, such as Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), Commission on Audit (COA), Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) Regional Office, and the Bureau of Internal Revenue District Office are evidence of Lipa City’s importance as an institutional centre.
History of Lipa
Lipa’s important and influential status dates back to the Spanish colonialization era due to a flourishing coffee industry. This made Lipa the riches municipality in the Philippines that in October 21, 1887, the Queen Regent Maria Christina who was acting in behalf of King Alfonso XIII elevated it into a city. It was given the name Villa de Lipa. It had been returned into a municipality in 1895, only to be once again declared a city on June 20, 1947 under the young Republic of the Philippines.
Lipa had also figured prominently during the Philippine Revolution against Spain. In 1894, the brother of Andres Bonifacio, Procopio Bonifacio, established a chapter of the Katipunan in the city. The secret Philippine revolutionary movement was joined by 32 Lipeños, from which many revolutionary leaders have emerged. Famous Hispanists Lipeños during the American occupation include Teodoro Kalaw and Claro M. Recto.
