There is a world of exciting rewards and wonderful opportunities that await independent Filipino grocers, especially those who have made the country’s leading one-stop grocery distribution company—Suy Sing Commercial Corporation—their trusted partner in running their business.

During the Suki Day 2017 held at the World Trade Center in Pasay City, thousands of loyal ka-Suy Sings became virtual tourists and adventurers as they visited “United States”, “Japan”, “Nepal”, “Indonesia”, “China”, “Switzerland”, “Netherlands”, “Argentina”, “Norway” and other tourist destination-themed booths to discover the “World of Success” that they can experience with Suy Sing.

Booths featuring world-renowned landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty, Leaning Tower of Pisa, Eiffel Tower, Great Wall of China, Mount Everest and the Himalayas attracted crowds of attendees with their selfie-worthy colorful backdrops. Exciting games and prizes, entertaining shows and gimmicks, special deals and promos, and new products and freebies also made Suki Day more fun and rewarding for thousands of attendees.

Stressing the vital role of Filipino grocers in not only making their business reach a world of success but effectively managing it for the long run, Guthrie Jensen engaged business owners in a Mastering Management seminar as part of Suy Sing’s Suki Success Series. Participants learned to manage their business, themselves, their people and productivity by setting goals and making plans to achieve them, assigning responsibilities to accomplish tasks, motivating employees, and evaluating work.

To highlight the celebration, Suy Sing served a delicious lunch buffet in a dining area where hundreds of tables filled most of the spacious World Trade Center. The company also treated the guests to a delightful and entertaining show courtesy of singer-comedian K Brosas, actor-comedian Chokoleit, and some unsuspecting members of the audience who took part in hilarious contests.

International Thyroid Awareness Week 2017

Tweet

International Thyroid Awareness Week, (ITAW) an international information campaign on social media and awareness events in various countries was recently culminated with the theme “It’s not you. It‘s your thyroid”. The event was held at the Trade Hall, Robinson’s Novaliches, Quezon City, May 27, 2017.

ITAW 2017 highlighting the similarities between the symptoms of thyroid disorders and the effects of today’s fast-paced lifestyles, and the tendency for people to blame themselves for the symptoms of the condition through the ‘It’s not you. It’s your Thyroid’ campaign.

To help raise awareness of thyroid disorders, Merck help to ensure that people have the information they need to recognize potential thyroid disorders and see their doctor, rather than blame themselves and accept how they’re feeling.

The International Thyroid Awareness Week is focusing on a small organ.

This little organ regulates processes that are essential to survival. Creating and raising awareness of thyroid disorders is the aim of ITAW.

The human thyroid gland weighs between 18 and 60 grams — hardly more than a letter — but it regulates metabolic processes that are essential to survival. If it is not functioning correctly, the body’s metabolic balance is disturbed. This has serious consequences for our health and our sense of well-being. However, there are many things we can do to prevent that from happening.

Participants were given basic information on the function and importance of the thyroid gland, as well as thyroid disorders (hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism) and their symptoms.

The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped organ located at the base of the neck, in front of the windpipe. It is the “master controller” of metabolism, and plays a key role in our health and wellbeing. It makes, stores and releases thyroid hormones into the blood, thus regulating metabolism. These hormones are essential for the proper functioning of all bodily tissues and organs. They enable our body to use its stores of energy efficiently, thereby controlling temperature and allowing our muscles to work properly.

Hypothyroidism, or an underactive thyroid gland, is a common condition. It is caused when the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones. This under-production of hormones slows down the body’s metabolism, often leaving patients feeling cold, tired and depressed. If you suffer from hypothyroidism then you are also likely to notice you have gained weight, despite following a sensible diet and exercising regularly.

National Coordinator of the Philippines, Iodine Global Network, Dr. Teofilo San Luis gave a lecture entitled “The Thyroid Masquerade”. He said thyroid diseases can be confusing to both patients and physicians because they manifest in different ways.

This year’s ITAW campaign  also highlights the striking similarities between the symptoms of thyroid disorders and the effects of today’s fast-paced lifestyles.

Merck and DOH wants to make it clear that thyroid disorders lead to symptoms that are often misinterpreted by those affected. 

Women in particular tend to attribute symptoms such as changes in weight, restlessness, lethargy, mood swings, a lack of concentration or sleep disorders to their general lifestyle rather than a possible thyroid disorder. 

An underactive thyroid gland is more common in women than in men and its occurrence rises with age. An overactive thyroid gland is 10 times more common in women than in men. It is most common in the age group of 20-40 years, but may occur at any age.

It is based on results from an international survey commissioned by Merck, in collaboration with Thyroid Federation International (TFI), which reveals many women blame themselves, and their lifestyle choices, for symptoms such as weight changes, irritability, anxiety, insomnia, and excessive tiredness, not realizing that a thyroid disorder could be the underlying cause.

This campaign is to help people recognize that they may be wrongly blaming themselves for their symptoms. Some of the symptoms of too little thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism) are constipation, lack of motivation, lack of concentration, depression, or weight gain. The symptoms of too much thyroid hormone (hyperthyroidism) include weight loss and irritability. Both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can lead to anxiety, menstrual difficulties, and difficulty sleeping.

The International Thyroid Awareness Week (ITAW) 2017 had many activities for all participants. The event was open to the public and admission was free.

ITAW2017 participants enjoyed the afternoon with fun and educational activities, with free doctors’ consultation, video viewing with to know more about thyroid, a quiz , photobooth, some pampering treats, free hair and make-up, nail art, eyebrow threading, massage, art for kids, zumba dancing, and free milk tea! Exciting prizes were given away to kids.

To end the evening, the Commitment Pledge, a promise to raise awareness of the importance of thyroid health and to be part of the solution to thyroid problems that affect millions of Filipinos.

The International Thyroid Awareness Week (ITAW) 2017 aims for all to think carefully about whether you or someone you know might be suffering from a thyroid disorder. If you suspect this to be the case, go to your doctor and ask to be screened with a simple blood test. In the hands of a healthcare professional, thyroid disorders can be well managed.

The International Thyroid Awareness Week (ITAW) 2017 was presented by Merck in partnership with the Department of Health (DOH), Philippine Thyroid Association (PTA), Healtway, Philippine Society of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism (PSEDM), and the Iodine Global Network (IGN).

Getting Seriously Addicted With Math, Try S.A.M. (Seriously Addictive Mathematics )

Tweet

Mathematics is considered by many students to be a very difficult subject in school. Math is not an easy subject to love. 

But it is not impossible.

How can teachers make math an interesting subject?

The key is teaching kids how to appreciate math by showing them the right fundamentals which they can apply both in a classroom setting or when they are solving math problems on their own.

S.A.M.’s Beginnings in Singapore

The people behind S.A.M are educators from the National Institute of Education in Singapore, led by Samuel Chia and Lau Chin Loong and a support team of Marshall Cavendish consultants. S.A.M or Seriously Addictive Mathematics is an international Singapore Math enrichment program with over 100 centres in 16 countries around the world including USA, Australia and Canada.

According to the TIMSS (Trends in International Maths & Science Study) survey, Singapore Math has been recognized as one of the most successful national programs in the world since 1995. The S.A.M program follows the Singapore Math Curriculum set out by the Ministry of Education and can either be a stand-alone or supplementary math program suitable for children aged 4-12 years old. What makes the SAM approach different from the other Singapore math programs in Philippines is that it is the only international Singapore Math program from Singapore.

Here in the Philippines, it was Enrich Asia which introduced S.A.M. to Filipino families. Enrich Asia is composed of professionals who actively scour the global education arena for new innovative approaches to engaging children and inspiring them to learn.

The Holistic Math Approach of S.A.M.

The S.A.M Approach to Mathematics combines the benefits of personalized coaching, which happens in the classroom in the company of other children with self-learning and self-discovery, which happens when work is taken home. The S.A.M Approach is designed to introduce new concepts in incremental yet sure steps to make learning easier.

During class, the trainers of S.A.M. introduce and explain the concepts and the lesson objective. The child then reinforces and applies this knowledge on his own at home through daily worksheets planned and prepared by SAM. Corrections or clarifications, if any, are done during the session the following week. 

The Values Instilled by S.A.M.

The advantage of S.A.M. is that it instills discipline, responsibility and independent learning within your child. These values are not just useful in his math subjects but could prove to be helpful as a child tackles his other school subjects.

S.A.M.’s Approach to Math

More than just rote learning, drill and practice, SAM aims to develop math skills going into the 21st century. These skills revolve around heuristics, logical reasoning, metacognitive understanding, modeling techniques and situational word problems. Rather than focusing on rote learning, quick fixes and maverick methods, the S.A.M program builds on kids’ foundation in Mathematics so that they can learn self-reliantly in their later years in school.

The once a week teachings provided by S.A.M. is a well-thought of process that guides yet steers a child towards learning math independently yet effectively. S.A.M. programs start children with an assessment, so they start at a comfortable point. Here, both their strengths and weaknesses are identified so the mentors will know which to polish or focus on. There are also no memorizations involved in teaching kids how to answer math problems, ensuring that understanding is the essence of every learning objective. 

And because what they learn are the concepts, the greater benefit is that the skills taught through S.A.M. stays with a person well into adulthood, where math ceases to be just a subject, and already a way of life.
