Reflection Paper

The forum "Empowering Juan" was very informative and eye opening. We had great speakers that contributed to the knowledge shared during the forum. The secretary of DOE, Carlos Jericho L. Petilla, shared a lot of his knowledge. He talked about the power consumption in the Philippines. He also talked about the nuclear plant that we have in Bataan. Most of us think that if we use that power plant, we would pay less than what we pay for electricity. But he clearly discussed how money is not the issue anymore when it comes to switching to nuclear energy. He also emphasized on how the change in the bill won't be significant enough to consider switching to nuclear energy. And that ethics will play a huge part if ever. All of the speakers shared information regarding the energy sector of the Philippines. I only hope that soon, we'll find a better way of getting power and totally abandoning the fuels that are bad for the environment.

The forum was a success. They managed to get a lot of sponsors and giveaways. I like how they made the students stay by making us wait for the much anticipated final prize which was a macbook air. <Be more do more>
