ARTICLE# 3: Energy and the Environment






Broadband Centralized Communication System (BCCS) can play a major role in the transition to a clean energy economy. The people can use these innovations to reduce carbon pollution, improve our energy efficiency and lessen our dependence on foreign oil.


Our aging electrical grid is a patchwork of outdated infrastructure. It's not just a system that delivers energy inefficiently -- the country’s electric grid is increasingly vulnerable to failure and attack. To ensure Philippine energy independence and efficiency, broadband and other advanced communications technologies must be used to modernize the grid. Paired with high-tech tools, like dynamic management software and remote sensors, broadband will be crucial to advancing innovations in renewable power, grid storage, and vehicle electrification.
For too long the innovation of computing and communications has not been applied to energy management and efficiency. Families and businesses know almost nothing about their electricity consumption and related costs until they receive their utility bill. Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that when people get feedback on their electricity usage, they make simple changes that save energy. Real-time information can also inform automated thermostats and appliances, enabling consumers to save energy and money automatically, while helping the country avoid new expensive power plants. To unleash innovation in smart homes and buildings, every Filipino should be able to use BCCS to track and manage their real-time energy consumption. National security and prosperity demands the country transition to a future where energy is clean, affordable, and reliable. We can get there if we unleash Filipino entrepreneurship, innovation, and ingenuity by providing access to their energy data.
The Philippine Government recognises the enabling role the ICT sector can play by for example rendering buildings more energy efficient or improving the functioning of the electricity grid and managing water. Nevertheless the Philippine Government is also aware that the sector itself is responsible for carbon emissions which are rapidly growing and should be kept to a minimum.

ARTICLE# 6: Public Safety and Security

Broadband Centralized Communication System (BCCS) can bolster efforts to improve public safety and security by allowing first responders to send and receive video and data, by ensuring all Nationals can access emergency services and improving the way the Nationals are notified about emergencies. The installation of CCTV systems to our Barangays will be able to centralize the real-time monitoring of the status and situation of each barangay, and integrating them to Central Monitoring System. It will be helpful also in disaster monitoring from barangay level up to the national level. Interconnecting all government agencies can also be accomplished through the centralized monitoring system. Government must support deployment of a nationwide, public safety broadband network. by sufficient funding in billions of dollars in capital expenditures over 10 years, which could be reduced through cost efficiency measures and other programs.  BCCS for Public Safety and Sec...

ARTICLE# 2: Education

Broadband Centralized Communication System (BCCS) can enable improvements in public education through e-learning and online content, which can provide more personalized learning opportunities  for students.  (BCCS) can also facilitate the flow of information, helping teachers, parents, schools and other organizations to make better decisions tied to each student’s needs and abilities. When an individual gains sufficient knowledge and skills, he can make life better, not just for himself, but for others. Education is the gateway to address all other development issues, including equality, environmental preservation, and modernization. Access to inclusive and quality education is global concern. And online learning databases do not waste precious natural resources. A single laptop and projector set-up, for example, can be used for a learning session for an entire classroom. In lieu of books and papers, students can access modules, submit assignments, and consult with ...

ARTICLE# 1: Government Health Care

When it comes to health care system in the  Philippine there is no centralized communication from barangay to municipality up to national office. Through Broadband Centralized Communication System, all information needed by the national government can easily be managed because of real time information and data updates. Broadband can help improve the quality of data management since all data inputs from different department are all real time basis. They are also clear. They will be captured through IT systems application from barangay health care up to central records management office. This Broadband Central Communication System (BCCS) can lower the cost of health care expenditures  through IT advanced records management. There is no need for any office personnel and manpower for folder filing only, and no need for hard copy of all medical requirements and records. This Broadband Centralized Communication System will improved data capture and use, which ena...
