“SIPAG,” which means diligence or industry, is fittingly used in the title of an event by the Department of Science and Technology’s Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development (DOST-PCAARRD) scheduled from March 2-4, 2016. It refers to the PCAARRD initiative “Strategic Industry S&T Programs for Agri-Aqua Growth” or SIPAG.

Combine this with another Tagalog word “FIESTA,” which stands for “Farms and Industry Encounters through Science and Technology Agenda,” another PCAARRD program.

The 2016 national elections are coming and the clamor for making the “right” choices is steadily rising. In the Philippines, taking a swing at politicians for not delivering on promises once elected is just as common as pinning the blame on the nearest voter for not making the expected “wise” vote.

Pointing the finger at the urban and rural poor for making the “uneducated vote” has become a common malpractice among the average Filipino over the years. In fact, just last year, discussions about not allowing non-tax payers to vote flared up after a recommendation from a well-known political figure was reinterpreted and misquoted over and over through different social media sites.
