Field Trip Overview:
We the 3rd batch of the field trip and
seminars enrollees are required to hold a minor field trip as compliance for our
Field Trip and Seminars subject, after much deliberation and suggestions of
places that we can have a technical visit within Davao City we were able to
unanimously decide to have it in the Public Safety and Command Center (PSSCC).
On the set date August 25,2012, I arrived before 9:00
a.m. at the scheduled meeting place in the waiting shed area outside the PSSCC
building. A lot of us were excited and we immediately noticed that the security
is tight. We are required to wear our school I.D. at all times and never stray
out of the group. Before entering PSSCC we were greeted by the city’s public
safety officer Mr. Magno G. Adalin and instructed us to divide ourselves in two
groups, since we are a big group of 67 students. I was assigned in group 1 and
we were immediately ushered to the conference room inside the PSSCC building and
we are informed that is also the same room where different agencies and the
city Mayor herself meets up for planning purposes. After everyone was in the
room, Mr. Magno then proceeded to generously discuss to us about PSSCC.
From his discussion I learned that PSSCC aims to be the
nerve center that unifies and further coordinates different government agencies
like the Davao City Police Office (DCPO), the City Health Office and City
Social Services and Development Office, the Central 911, the Bureau of Fire
Protection, the Red Cross, the Davao City Disaster Coordinating Council, Office
of the Civil Defense and the Regional Disasters Coordinating Council. Along
with this different coordinated government agencies, PSSCC is also given the opportunity
to automate itself and install advance technologies that will definitely help
them in achieving the provision of Vice Mayor Rodrigo R. Duterte which is that "every local government unit exercises
the powers necessary and proper for the governance such as the promotion of
health and safety, enhancement of prosperity, improvement of morals, the
maintenance of peace and order, and the preservation of comfort and convenience
of the inhabitants within their respective jurisdictions." After the open
forum where we students were encouraged to ask questions, Mr. Magno showed to
us an audio visual presentation of the current Mayor Sarah Duterte which speaks
to us more about Davao City’s life with the PSSCC presence.
Finishing
our discussion in the conference room, it is now our turn to have a technical
tour around the PSSCC building.
An
officer of the PSSCC became our next speaker and ushered us into this mini lobby
which is just next to what we may call the main center of PSSCC and is just
separated by a glass wall enabling us to view everything that is happening
inside. The speaker then proceeded to explaining to us the different
technologies they make use in ensuring public safety, like for example in the
roads, they have installed high-tech CCTV cameras rotatable 360 degrees with
35x zooming power. These CCTVs were installed in the busiest streets of Davao
City for the purpose of maintaining unclogged traffic, crime control and fast emergency
response in terms of disaster in the road. The feeds from the different CCTVs
are fed to the system of PSSCC through wireless connectivity which in turn the
employees inside the CCTV can control the movements of the camera. The speaker
also added that the system being used by PSSCC is also equipped with Weather
Monitoring and Flood Alert System which helps in monitoring of the different
bodies of water surrounding Davao City and provide an early warning for
possible catastrophic events that may arise in times of severe bad weather.
Before
we left the speaker showed us some clips taken by their camera around the city,
there was this one clip that shows a traffic violator who was trying to talk
the traffic enforcer into bribery, the traffic enforcer responded by pointing
to the CCTV clearly stating that “it is not only I watching you…” Some other
clips showed different accidents on the road which was responded fast by the
emergency response team after being tapped by the PSSCC.
The
day ended great for us, we learned many new things, PSSCC being created with the
use of the peoples’ tax is immense yet the service being presented by PSSCC is
value beyond any money that could worth and I am also sure that all of us are
proud to live in Davao City which is safe, protected and secured under the
watchful eyes of the PSSCC.

Appendix
Recommendation:
What
can I recommend for the improvement of the Fieldtrip and Seminar Program?
Since
as for the moment, the Fieldtrip and Seminar Program is a regular highlight of
each year I believe it is only right to orient the students who are about to
take the FTS not just only limited to the estimated payables but also the responsibilities
and paper works, these paper works I believe, must include specific information
about the processes required and the list of things to be complied to make the
FTS itself. By doing so students especially the officers can now have an idea
of how hard and delicate this program requires them and they can already adjust
their time and actions incases that any of the processes required or things to
be complied about the Fieldtrip and Seminar Program are to change and they can
address it all in a quick and orderly manner.
My
advice to those who will take their Fieldtrip and Seminar Program in the near
future:
My
advice for those who are to take the Field Trip and Seminar Program is to deal
with it very seriously and to look forward not just about the fun and
excitement but for also the rare opportunity of being able to experience and
learn about new stuff. In addition to that many have said that our batch, the 3rd
batch of the FTS to be exact is one of the best batches there is who took the
program, I suppose it is only right to give proper credit to every one of us in
our batch who decided to work and cooperate in any task and in any way we can
help, I also give utmost respect to our outstanding league of leaders in the
form of our officers who made things that are uncertain, certain and things
that are undoable to doable. This simple means that to the next batch who will
take the Fieldtrip and Seminar Program, the greatness and quality of fun,
excitement and learning is entirely in everyone’s hand, and it’s just right
that everyone should participate, help and do whatever task he/she is capable
to make the experience in your Fieldtrip and Seminar Program a notable and
priceless one.
