Ochoa, Almendras now in charge of relief operations
We were discussing with some AGSB professors critiquing the management and leadership of the Yolanda typhoon victims relief operations. We may say that the way CNN criticized PNOY was uncalled for but our kababayan were at the bad end of mismanagement and lack of forceful leadership.
The supertyphoon was bad enough but the allegations on the challenges of the ground operations definitely needed improvement: relief distribution, relief , id of the dead, their retrieval and burial, security, cleandliness and clearing operations, and even handling of pr and interviews. We were pitiful due to the typhoon, and we were sorry mess in the management of the crisis. Some further education of public sector is needed on how to manage and lead such difficulties
Education leads to better action and handling of difficulties.
We had an MBAH student before who was the deputy of the Disaster Coordinating Council a Dr. and I gave my kudos for the able handling of the disaster in Infanta and Real Quezon (he handled it better than Americans handled Katrina victims) He became a congressman in the central Visayas. People were satisfied with how handled the disaster.

Spectacular Train Stations; was Tutuban train station one of them?
Repost from CNN News
We had a group work exercise on ideation and innovation which concerned megacities. The major topics included architecture, energy, mass transportation, waste disposal. And the class submitted a lot of ideas; it shows the degree of engagement and the development of creativity among students.
This article at CNN shows that you can have great transport system and great architecture at the same time. Our MRT and LRT train stations are uninspiring. Can they be made more appealing and compelling in the future?
The Tutuban train station looked great before, right?
