NU#11 Happy Travelling Ideas by JANE LABARRETE


Happy Traveling
During the holidays people opt to travel and traffic is always a major concern.  Traveling time usually doubles during this season because people are inclined to go and visit places. One of the most frustrating scenes when traveling to province is a pile of tricycles on high-way streets especially on provinces where tricycles move really slowly and a pile of frustrated cars that are eager to overtake these vehicles causing either traffic or accidents for drivers who take the risk to overtake. These are really common scenarios in provinces where tricycles are normally seen in highways. So how can we resolve this? An idea I have in mind is:

TRICYCLE ELEVATED LANES
These are extended lanes at the side where public transportation vehicles can lay over or a lane only intended to tricycles.  These are elevated sides to separate slow moving vehicles from the fast ones to avoid traffic especially on holidays where big bulk of people travel back to their home town. 4

LED REFLECTOR SIDE LIGHTS
During travel periods, some the roads lack lights on the side to avoid accidents. We all know that these can be pricey to put up in every side of the roads plus the cost added to electricity.  An idea is to have reflector on the sides to make use and reflect the lights from the cars and utilize it to light the side streets instead of using electricity. This LED reflector lights emits light cars and reflects to give light in the whole area. You don't just save cost but it is technically Eco-friendly as well.  

On the other hand, another idea I have in mind, since MMDA are very strict in implementing the color coding scheme we might as well help them to resolve traffic though a:

COLOR CODED CODING PLATE GLASSES
The idea to have a color coding plate glasses because technically the numbers can be small and cannot be seen at times in result a lot of motorist still can escape the coding the scheme. The glasses will still allow the plates to have uniform colors visually but wearing the glasses will give a different distinct color for those who are in coding. The enforcer can immediate identify far afar which vehicles are on coding by just wearing the glasses that immediately records and identifies cars who violates. It also records data immediately just in case the drivers escape and sends a letter for violation. This device can be helpful in lessening traffic and cars. It also enforces discipline for violators of the law. 4

NU 6- Jane Labarrete - tawatawa leaves for dengue





 
Tawa Tawa Plant, A Cure for DENGUE?
During the rainy season, we all witness an increase in the cases of Dengue. A simple fever can actually turn out to be your worst nightmare because of its early symptoms is very similar to ordinary fever we all experience once in awhile. Recently, a couple of my friends were rushed in the hospital diagnosed with dengue, some had it twice already,  ofcouse hearing stories left and right can only make you worry and panic every time you experience a sudden increase in your body temperature.  I can't help but to be scared  but reading the book of Genesis that states that every cure can be found with the plants around you, I remember a family friend recommending "tawa-tawa" plant something he recently learned when his son had dengue "twice". Spending too much in hospital bills because of it and going through it twice was difficult so a Doctor recommended this plant to him and have tried to increase his son's platelets. Good thing it worked! Imagine, spending thousands in the hospital and getting the cure from your backyard can be so amazing! It can save a life and save your pocket as well.
True enough!  according to the article I've read, The government's medical researchers have embarked on a new study to determine if there is science in the claims that the plant called "tawa-tawa" has therapeutic properties.
            Many Filipinos say tawa-tawa (Euphorbia hirta) is a cure for dengue and tuberculosis. Some doctors frequently interviewed on popular health programs on radio have noted the curative effects of tawa-tawa, but none has categorically said that the plant indeed has medicinal value.
To settle the matter, the Philippine Council for Health Research and Development (PCHRD), the research and development arm of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), is looking into claims that tawa-tawa has antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties and that it can increase blood platelets, vital in the treatment of dengue, a fever that has rising cases, especially among children, in some parts of the country.3 < what can you further with this discovery?>

BUSINESS PLAN CONCEPT- Jane Labarrete






JANE LABARRETE
BUSINESS PLAN CONCEPT
I.                   Topic. Online Clothing Line: Sophisticada
"Who says being sophisticated is expensive?"
Since, E-Marketing is the next big thing to reach your target market; the idea is to put up an online clothing shop that features latest trends in clothes, shoes and accessories primarily sourced from  Thailand, Hong Kong and China which are relatively affordable and sophisticated in taste. Other than that, my differentiating element would be they can have the change to customize it for elaborate beads to make it look unique, in shoes or in clothes, accessories. I plan to tie it up with jobless women in Happy Land Tondo or Women from Prison to personalize the products which would take 3-5 days to be delivered if personalized.  

The reason why I wouldn't put up a store yet or situate it near Greenhills I believe that an online component would be enough to sustain enough traffic for customers. Since I'm too customization of clothes I would like to tag the company to tie up with other clothing company for bulk bead projects in clothes that are usually outsourced. The reason why I'd like to open this up to do bead projects for my indirect competitors, I believe mass produce products are not the market that I cater. I'd like to be there third party partner to attain my vision to help a give hope to jobless women in Tondo and prison.
