Gibo Plans to Reform Health Care System in RP Posted: 05 Jan 2010 07:22 PM PST Administration party's presidential bet, Gilbert "Gibo" Teodoro said that overhauling the health-care system of the country could help stop the migration of medical professionals to other countries. If ever he became president, Teodoro said he will push for a legislation envisioned to create "a feasible universal participative health-care system", which can help stem the continuing migration of doctors and nurses for greener pastures abroad. Under the contemplated health-care reform plan, everyone who can afford it can contribute a nominal amount to a participative system. "There's more for everybody, not merely in terms of buying medicine and providing care but for providing reimbursements for doctors and nurses, so there's an incentive to stay [in the country] and participate in the system." Teodoro explained. Among his proposals also includes reform program in the education sector to raise its competitive standards: Improving primary and secondary education and incorporating a third language in the curricula besides Tagalong and English. A revolving student-loan program of around P5 billion to ensure that those who want to go to college can take a loan payable when the student is already employed. Every student who wants to study would get an SSS/GSIS [Social Security System/Government Service Insurance System] number along with the loan. When the student graduates and is eventually employed, then loan payments is deducted as pay. This will give scholarships to those who really deserve it because of high aptitude. Promote those subjects that are not too popular but needed by the country like international relations, public policy and planning.

Nursing, Accounting, IT workers among the “hot jobs” for 2010 : NursingCrib.com Updates

Nursing, Accounting, IT workers among the “hot jobs” for 2010 Posted: 04 Jan 2010 06:32 PM PST Nursing, accounting, campaign workers, dog handlers and IT workers are just some of the "hot jobs"  in 2010. Jayjay Viray, managing director of JobsDB.com, said while they see nurses and accountants again being in demand this year, there are other not so popular but surprisingly high-paying jobs Filipinos should consider as possible careers. Demand for dog handlers for deployment to the Middle East and a surge of election-related jobs in the first half of the year should allay fears of the unemployed about their prospects, according to a human resource specialist. 10,000 dog handlers are wanted in the Middle East and could get a monthly pay of as much as $2,500. Engineers, construction workers and information technology (IT) experts continue to be in demand in other parts of the world, she added.
