MAKE IDEAS HAPPEN

IF YOU ARE PICKED TO SERVE THE CABINET OF THE PRESIDENT WHAT WILL
BE YOUR EXPERTISE AND TOP PRIORITY
Poverty is the most common known problem here in the Philippines. It rose from 16.7 percent
in 2016 to 18.1 percent in 2021; it may increase in the future that will cause some huge
disadvantages for everyone, especially to our farmers.
Being a cabinet secretary whose job is to serve the president, they are responsible or tasked
with advising the president on the different affairs of the state, like agriculture, budget, energy,
finance, education, social welfare, national defense, foreign policy and the like. If I have given a
chance to be the cabinet secretary, I’m going to handle the department of agriculture. In this
generation, families don’t advise their children to take a degree in agriculture because they say
that there is no money in the crops. At this rate, you will notice how our farmers suffer a lot in
their work; they are the ones who produce raw materials, foods, or animal products, as well as
other duties like planting, fertilizing, and harvesting plants. They are the ones who work 24/7,
put in a lot of effort; consume their time in a hot field just to plant, and spend their money on
crops, irrigation supply, fertilizer, and plant purchases just to produce some well-made
products that will be served on each table of every Family.
But all of their hard work has not resulted in a sustainable life; their earnings are only used to
pay for farmland that they do not own and their family’s debt due to the fertilizer and crops
required in the planting processes, as well as some circumstances that are destroying their
crops due to soil erosion, biodiversity loss, climate change, typhoons, pests, and waste.
Our Farmers are also having difficulty reaching some costumers who will help them in supplying
for continuous planting, due to high levels of competition, selling online, logistical issues with
getting products to customers, and some foreign products that is well common right now in the
market.
If I am given the opportunity to manage the Department of Agriculture, I will provide our
farmers with their own land to plant their crops, free plant supply, a proper irrigation system,
and a monthly allowance to help them with their work. I will also advertise their products
online and teach them how to make some way when it comes to online selling and as a Cabinet
secretary I have the credibility to assist our farmers in finding appropriate costumers to ensure
that their products are purchased at a reasonable cost.
Of course, none of that planning can be guaranteed without the president’s consent, but as a
President, they should be aware of the things that will help our citizen to live in a sustainable
life for the betterment of everybody and as a Cabinet secretary I will do everything in my power
to meet our citizens’ needs and help them in life because I believe that “Voice and Actions have
the power to change things, so use it in a good way to make a proper platform. Always
remember that “Make Ideas Happen”.
