As an Agriculturist (BSA major in Ag Edu, UP Los Baños 1965), and a Teacher (Civil Service Professional, 1964) – a journalist self-taught, what I have been writing about since 1975 is found in the name of my blog where you are reading this: “Communication For Development Of Vibrant Villages (ComDev2).” I can’t remember exactly when that came out, modified from my own “Communication for Development of Villages” (ComDev). In 1980, thinking about “Development Communication” (DevCom) of the UPLB College of Development Communication, I came up with “Communication for Development” (ComDev), to over-emphasize the objective of journalism.
Today, as a writer, I have this double
challenge: “Agri-Biotechnology” or “Plant Breeding” (which is man-made) and
“Regenerative Agriculture” (which is man-induced but God-made).
The more I think of Agri-Biotechnology and
Regenerative Agriculture, having blogged yesterday (“Regenerative Agriculture
Shifts The Paradigm,” ebridge Says. “It Has Room For Agribiotech Crops,” I
Frank A Hilario Say), which is about the appointment of William Dar, a Filipino with great intellect, as Chair of
the ISAAA, which is the “International Service for the Acquisition of
Agri-biotech Applications.” The ISAAA website is isaaa.org (isaaa.org) and the slogan is this: “We feed
the world with KNOWLEDGE.”
More or less, that inspires me – I am enthused
to think out a slogan for myself:
“UNITY IN DIVERSITY!” which is an acronym:
Universal
Needs
Involving
Tools, Techniques & Technologies
Yes,
Intended for
National
Development Derived from
Initiatives of
Volunteers’
Energies & Endearments
Required for
Social
Improvement
Towards
Yesterday’s Yearnings Yet!
The first 2 words have been neglected in
programs & projects for progress: “Universal Needs” must serve the needs of
the people in society, not simply our family and/or sectoral needs. That cannot
be over-emphasized.
For common progress, what the world needs are
“Tools, Techniques & Technologies” – where “tools” refers to folk-invented devices
for common people doing things and achieving results, “techniques” involving inventive
people achieving improved results even with those already-existing tools, and
“technologies” for devices & machines from science that are either new or
improved instruments for work.
We must all strive for ourselves, our
families, and ultimately “National Development.”
Who are called for? Volunteers from
anywhere and everywhere, those who are willing to share their “Energies &
Endearments” – their efforts arising from their likes and loves – that is, no
time spent on being contrary to other ideas and initiatives.
The overall aim is “Social Improvement” for
the common “Yearnings” that have been there since “Yesterday Yet!”
Volunteers are needed working with their
energies and endearments addressed to everyone. Yes, (a) the ultimate objective
is not simply individual, not simply family, but social; (b) considering what
everyone has commonly desired for – the good of all.
Thus, above, “UNITY IN DIVERSITY” becomes
the world’s first slogan that needs explanation that is 197 words long. The
image, from istockphoto.com,
I believe says: “We must share love, not hate.”
Now then: No articles from
me contrary to the concepts of others – instead, I present my own concepts,
especially in larger scale, such as this one!@517
