The common good is the goal of every society. Every society aims where its citizens can live with peace and harmony; where they can share the resources and wealth of their society with equality; where people can ensure their lives in terms of security. Attaining the common good the society must use common means, and that is through education. This is a means where every society can ensure its future for a better one.
In a developing society like the Philippines, education is essential in order to achieve a better future. The state must always consider how their citizens would be able to reach their potentialities and nurture it. The potentialities of the people will decide the fate of a society.

Educational Innovations in the Philippines
QUESTION:
Philippine education has been a target of reform for the past 100 years or so since the arrival of the Thomasites. It has been said that our educational system is the most studied sector of our society. Of course, the need for change in education has been a function of the changing needs of people and society. Enhancing the quality of the products of education – namely, our students; raising student test scores to be on a par with those of other countries; improving the quality and standards of the teaching profession are some of the motives for change/reform through the years. Collectively, these motives issue a call to action. Educations, reformers, theorists, businesspeople, practitioners, parents and administrators heard the call. They answered the call with a plethora of innovations, programs, models, theories, policies, legislation, mandates, and so on. The result is hundreds of educational innovations.

SIMPLY PUT, “Everything that increases the role of subordinates is decentralization and that decreases the role is centralization.”
Centralization is a process where the concentration of decision making is in a few hands. The important decisions and actions at the lower level are subject to the approval of top management.
On the other hand, decentralization is a systematic delegation of authority at all levels of management and in all of the organization. Authority is retained to the top management concerning major decisions and framing policies that involve the whole organization. Rest of the authority may be delegated to the middle level and lower level of management.

HIGHER EDUCATION IN THE PHILIPPINES must be evaluated in terms of the quality of its graduates and their contribution to the needs of our society and nation. How can the management of higher education institutions be made more effective and efficient in order to produce globally competitive and ethically steeped workforce?
One of the key solutions to this issue is to uplift the morals and nationalism of the students by offering enough subjects in the higher education curricula that could instill nationalism and patriotism among students. One of the reasons our society now is deteriorating is that of the so-called 'brain drain' wherein the cream of the crop among our graduates migrate to other countries, thus having no contributions in solving our own society's problems.

THE PURPOSE OF THE SO-CALLED customer-driven educational organization/institution is to be fully committed in satisfying and anticipating the needs of the students, who are the customers. More than a marketing strategy, this innovative educational philosophy treats the students as partners in developing and delivering quality and pragmatic education (which, in economic jargon, is the product or service offered by an enterprise).

THROUGH PHILATELY—the collection and study of postage stamps and related items—one can learn of a country’s history, art, and culture, as depicted in special commemorative stamps... In the Philippines, stamps are issued by the Philippine Postal Corporation (Philpost), the government’s agency responsible for providing postal services in the country. Philpost has long been producing commemorative and special stamps like that of boxing icon Manny Paquiao and the late president Corazon “Cory” Aquino.
