To Bancnet。

Bancnet

Bancnet is largest ATM Consortium in the Philippines. Most of the ATMs you will see beside of the bank will have the name of Bancnet on it.

The Talk:

The talk started to show the background of their company. And as I see that the company has initiate different innovations in the Philippines which makes the customers be more convenient on accessing electronic payment and remain trust on using this services because of the reliable security that the company has.  

The Tour:

 While walking around the company, the company is small to hold 40+ students. We saw that their offices and also the ATM they have in their offices.

Lastly, I just want to say that I can't imagine that company with only 50+ employee runs most of the bank's ATM in the Philippines. 

To JP Morgan Chase & CO。

JP Morgan Chase & Co.

from: http://www.therichest.org/business/the-top-ten-biggest-companies-in-the-world/

JP Morgan Chase & Co is the global leading multinational banking that offers financial services. In the Philippines, JP Morgan Chase & Co play an important role in providing consultant to huge company and also Philippines government that helps them to have decision in terms of finance. JP Mprgan Chase & Co not just limit their self in doing business and earn money. They also wanted to have their social responsibilities by giving sponsorship and donates money that wanted to improve the country and also helps the people of the country who are in need. 

      It is really lucky for us to experience visiting one of the world leading company and give us a listen to talk inside the company. JP Morgan Chase invited all the IT heads to gives us a talk. They discuss the IT infrastructure in the company and also shows us the opportunities of being IT inside JP Morgan & Chase Co. Some of the speaker told some of their stories and how they choose JP Morgan Chase & Co. And through their stories, we can see  how JP Morgan treated their employee which helps them to become one of the company that employees are happy to work for. 

     There is one thing that we students are very interested on which is their vendo machine. The vendo machine has provided different selection of drinks. One can just click the button on the selected drink and the vendo machine will automatically provide the drinks. There are two things that makes me feels interested in vendo machine. One thing is that the drinks in the machine is all for free for all the applicants, visitors and also their employees. Another thing is that the knowledge in the vendo machine on how it measures the volume of the drinks, how it can it store huge amount of different kinds of drinks inside and how it can prepare everything inside with just one click which is very convinient to the person who is using it. 

     We can see that the JP Morgan Chase & Co is really a good company which care their employees and give them a lot of opportunities to train their employees to strengthen their skills and give their best to using their skill on the company.

To Network Labs。

Network Labs。

It is the second company that we visit. 

UP Techno Hub is a very good place because it is surrounded by trees which makes the surrounding green~.

The speaker of the company is a Lasallian which makes me feel very friendly and they also very welcomed us to their company.

Travel（ing.......）

Describing the rooms of Network Labs, One of their rooms (with the boats) is where they gives us lecture. And they also tour us in other rooms has many sands in the floor which look like going to the Boracay.

The Talk:

The speaker talk about the background and the history of the company and lastly he gives a Q&A time for the students. In his talk, I was interested in when he said that they accept crazy ideas which is what I'm very interested about. Moreover, they also said similar with what Brady has said. They say that working in network labs is like going to school. 

Tour:

We are very lucky to visit and see their laboratory. The Laboratory Technician introduce the things inside the laboratory. And I remembered that the technician has said that they should not stay too long inside the laboratory, because the radiation can harm their health. And I think that health is one thing that we as student need to consider for when finding job. We should consider the working place which can not affect our health.

To Brady。

Having a tour to Brady makes me have a new view and thoughts that we can't get from the books. It is better to see the actual thing in the real world rather than imagining the concept in the books. The tour to Brady let me learn more on how BPO, Call center and the technology involve work.  

When we entered Brady, Brady shows that they very welcome us. I remembered the most is the Doughnut and the drinks they provided.

In the Lecture, the speaker teach me a lot on his lecture. Although sometimes I can't understand what he is saying because of his accent, his lecture gives the students to know the basic information on Brady, the call center infrastructure(I can't understand that much), the role of IT on how does it affect the business, the top trends for 2013-2015(learned Hybrid Cloud) and lastly the key success factor that I think they are trying to apply inside the Brady(strong work ethics, working well under pressure).

For me, Brady is good in people with people relationship especially on their employees. They gave their employees Saturday and Sunday Holiday which change on my thought on a call center that should 24 hours 7 weeks operate. They also provide a place for their employee to  have a rest because they know that some of their employee come from far areas. Also, I can feel the atmosphere inside a company is not heavy, like Ms Karin said that Brady is like a school, the only different thing is that in Brady you can earn money. 

Bayan Mo iPatrol Mo

Bayan Mo、 iPatrol Mo

It was a different experience being a part of BMPM of ABS CBN. I remembered when the forum started,  the host asked how many people registered to vote for the election, and there were only few people who raised their hand. Because of not aware on the election I didn't raised my hand.

Before entering the forum Bayan Mo iPatrol Mo, I have no idea on how can my vote affect the whole Philippines. For me, voting is very hard  because I has hard time on selecting. Moreover, I am not that familiar with the senators of the election. So, I didn't include myself to be one voters for the election. And also, voting is very hassle because it will consume to much of our time.We can use that time for our school work. I think that there are many people like me who prioritize the school work than other.

After listening to the speakers, I become more knowledgeable on the flow and processes of an election. And the important thing is that the forum makes me know that how my vote is important for the Philippines. I was given privileged to choose who will be the leader leading the country to become success but I choose to ignore it. My vote can affect not only the country, the citizen of the country, but also myself. I can have the right to choose who is a good leaders that can improve the country and also improve the life of the citizen living in the country.

With the help of this program,  students will know more about how voting becomes a privileged of being a citizen in running the company named Philippines.
