HOUSING
A house satisfies the need for subsistence by offering shelter. In this regard, it is
considered to provide sufficient living area for household members if not more than two
people share the same room. It is central to household functionality and productivity,

social harmony and the development of a healthy and sustainable economy. Studies
have shown that a lack of adequate housing reduces productive opportunities and
increases physical and psychological well-being. Households are the basic organizing
units of socio-cultural institutions of civil society.
According to the 2010 Socio Economic profile of Paranque City, Barangay Tambo
is part of the list of depressed areas. The residential housing of Barangay Tambo is
mostly poorly regulated, and can be primarily described as shanty. Even though there
are housing laws/regulations that govern, they are not being adhered to, at least not by
the informal settlers. Most homes are not professionally built and are made out of
mixed materials, primarily of wood, and with little steel and concrete.

There is also

unsatisfactory lighting and ventilation due to most homes being built adjacent to each
other. In addition, there is also the presence of poor drainage and sewage system in
the area that breeds bacterial pathogens and make the area prone to flooding. Due to
these factors, the residential housing of Barangay Tambo is at risk to several dangers
such as fire hazards and health related concerns.

RECREATION
Recreation is beneficial for both
physical and psychological wellbeing. Recreation is an important process that helps
refresh and reinvigorate both the body and mind. Most recreational activities take place
in what is known as discretionary time, or time that a person has when he does not

have any responsibilities to attend to at the moment. Recreational activities can range
from physical actions such as team sports to playing in the park or taking a hike in
nature. They can also refer to exercise such as visiting the gym or running on a trail.
These activities allow people to use their bodies and increase their levels of personal
fitness for health-related reasons.
Based from our teams observation of Barangay Tambos recreational activity
outlets, recreational activities varies based on age groups. As expected, most young
children from toddlers to school age mainly play among their peers outside their homes.
Young adults play sports at the nearby gymnasium such as basketball and volleyball.
There are also PC cafes where a mixture of age groups spends their leisure time
playing PC games and surfing the net. As for the older adults, they mostly chat with
their friends and neighbors, singing karaoke, and drinking alcoholic beverages.

POLITICS AND GOVERNMENT

The government passes the laws, provides law enforcement, provides local and
national protection, and oversees a country's infrastructure. Most governments also
provide education for its citizens and some provide health care, and may provide a wide
variety of other types of services. Local governments, city, and state governments have

a role in providing these things and for collecting the taxes to pay for them. Government
is important because it control the scale of the population, tax and make policy for the
country and agency to regulate it. Government guides society and creates norms and
expectations for behavior. Government ensures stability and reasonable peace in which
to live and work. Good government requires quality leadership.
A community leader is a socially and/or politically prominent and respected
member of a community.

Their role is one of the most important parts to building a

strong community. There many other factors that help or hinder progress, but it is
leadership that makes everything else that goes into creating a great community
possible; leadership is the indispensible element of success.
The Punong Barangay, commonly known as the Barangay Captain and less
commonly Barangay Chairman, is the highest elected official in a barangay, the smallest
of the elected administrative divisions of the Philippines. Barangay Tambos local
leadership is headed by Barangay Chairman: Capt. Godofredo B. De Leon.
Based on our teams interviews about Barangay Tambo residents current
government and political opinions, it is unfortunate to report that most do not have
favorable views about their political leaders at the national level, but are at least content
with the local level.

EDUCATION
Education has a great social importance especially in the modern, complex
industrialized societies. Philosophers of all periods, beginning with ancient stages,
devoted to it a great deal of attention. The main social objective of education is to

complete the socialization process. The family gets the child, but the modern family
tends to leave much undone in the socialization process. The school and other
institutions have come into being in place of family to complete the socialization
process, among other important objectives.
According to the 2010 Paranaque City Socio-Economic Profile, Barangay Tambo
has (3) Three Day Care Centers: Seaside day care center I, Seaside Day Care Center
II, and Puyat Compound Day Care Center; With 2 or 3 sessions in each Day Care

Joseph Church, and Tambo Elementary School Main. The school can be accessed
using Quirino Avenue. The people surrounding the school belong to the low to average
economic class. However, most of the pupils enrolled in the school come from Seaside

Portion of Brgy. Tambo along Coastal Road. Ninety-five percent (95%) of the students
are Brgy. Tambo residents while only five percent (5%) came from the neighbor
barangay in Paraaque City. About thirty percent (30%) of the pupils enrolled belong to
the middle and above average income bracket while seventy percent (70%) are from
the lower economic bracket.

COMMUNICATIONS
Community development is the process of helping a community to strengthen
itself and develop towards its full potential. Communication is a key component of
sustainable development. Mobilizing community members for community development
purpose is important but members of communities can only be mobilized when

communication is effective. Adequate community communication leads to effective

collaborative efforts in issue of development. Communication will help engage citizens
in development.
Barangay Tambo is under the governance of the city of Paraaque. The existing
telecommunication network of Paraaque is being served by PLDT andSMART but,
PLDT covers the largest cross section of the sixteen barangays. Expansion and
upgrading of then system by way of XC5 Program is completed from Barangay San

annex in the City Hall serve the postal system.

HEALTH
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), health is a state of complete
physical, social and mental well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or
infirmity. Health is a resource for everyday life, not the object of living, and is a positive
concept emphasizing social and personal resources as well as physical capabilities.
Health is a fundamental human right, recognized in the Universal Declaration of Human

Rights (1948). It is also an essential component of development, vital to a nation's

economic growth and internal stability. Along with the traditional and unequivocal
arguments on social justice and the importance of health, it is now accepted that better
health outcomes play a crucial role in reducing poverty.
Barangay Tambo health care needs are accommodated by the City of
Paranaque.

ECONOMY/LIVELIHOOD
An economy or economic system consists of the production, distribution or trade,
and consumption of limited goods and services by different agents in a given
geographical

location.

The economic agents

can

be

individuals,

businesses,

organizations, or governments. For society, the economy provides a scientific approach

to analyzing and understanding government decisions for ensuring stable economic
growth with low inflation and the highest possible level of employment. Economic
methods also provide the tools by which policy analysts study the possible costs,

benefits and effects of government policies in a range of areas, from national security to
health care and education. Outside of government, economic principles help guide the
business decisions and actions that help foster a prosperous society.
According to the 2010 Socio Economic Profile of Paranaque, the average
monthly income of the informal settlers of Barangay Tambo falls below the minimum
wage. The main occupation of Barangay Tambo Seaside Square is Self Employment
(street vendors, freelance contractors, etc...). The community is mostly residential with a
small number of commercial and business establishments. Most noted among them is
the Alimango for exports.

FIRE AND SAFETY

Local governments and community groups are increasingly recognizing that
community safety is a fundamental quality of life issue - a safe community is a livable
community, a healthy community, and an economically viable community. The defining
feature of a safe community is the ability of all of its citizens - regardless of gender,
race, age, sexuality, language, income or ability - to participate fully and freely in all of
its environments. This requires that citizens both feel, and are, safe, and that they have
meaningful opportunities to participate in local decision-making processes.

Living in a community environment calls upon all of its members to ensure that
the community is safe. Fire Safety is particularly important because it affects the entire
community. Cooperation from every resident in following good fire and life safety
practices will ensure that all residents have a safe and comfortable living
environment. A healthy community is also a safe community. Yet, the reality of crime,
victimization and fear means that many people, especially those who are the most
vulnerable are severely limited in the way they can use and be part of their
communities.

parents, children and other close relatives who often live in close proximity with each

development of a child. Extended family members can be great role models and
influences for children; provide children with a sense of encouragement, security and
stability; help children better understand the roots of their family; let children know that
there are people outside the immediate family that love and care about them; help build
on the sense community for the child.

disciplinary model and the one who insures the protection of his family while, on the
other hand, the mother is the one who is in-charge with the household.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYZATION AND JUSTIFICATION

The figure shows the frequency of family size in Barangay Tambo Seaside
Paraaque. There are 45 family respondents. There are 22 (48.49%) with a small sized
families, 13 (28.89%) with a medium sized families and 10 (22.22%) with a large sized
family.
Out of the 45 respondents, majority of them are small sized families. There is an
increasing trend around the world to have a small family rather than a large family. As
small family can benefit children and parents and make it easier to find sufficient
resources for a family. Children can enjoy their parents full attention instead of sharing it
with multiple siblings. Additionally, family with less children sibling rivalry is less likely to
be a problem among children. Parents can spend more time with the individual child
and the childs favorite activities. Caring for a large family can be stressful mad
exhausting. Parents of a small family should therefore be more relaxed and patient.
Lastly, fewer children mean the family budget is more likely to leave room for some
extras, like holidays or separate bedrooms for each child. On the other hand, there is
also some downside for all family members of a small family. Children can end become
spoilt and less responsible than their peer growing in large families. Being an only child
often associated with egoism and less developed social skills.
A large family has some very strong advantages. First of all, it has a lot of
members and there is more than one earning member in a large family. In addition,
members can help each other in bad times. A large family has parents, children and
uncles, aunties and grandparents. Therefore, children can enjoy the company of all the
members. Everyone has his/her story at the end of the day and they all sit and talk
about their good experiences, their problems and possible solutions together. Finally, a
large family can save money in various different ways. Because they all live together,
the cost becomes low in total and they can save a lot. There are several disadvantages
of having a large family. First of all, there is hardly any privacy. You may have to share
bedrooms with your sisters or brothers. It is hard to have any time alone because there
are so many people living in one house. In addition, a large family often has more
expenses than a small family.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYZATION AND JUSTIFICATION

This graph shows that the vast majority occupational statuses in Barangay
Tambo, Seaside Paraaque are unemployed with a total percentage of 50.67%, for
employed are 39.33% and for self-employed are 10%.
The rate of unemployment is much higher than those who are employed. One of
the causes of unemployment is lack of education, most of the people that we
interviewed they did not have proper education due to financial problem.
Surviving without a job is challenging. If you don't have a regular monthly
income, you may have a hard time paying your bills, filling your time and coping with
your emotions. It may result to stress, poverty and depression and may lead to health
problems.
Unemployment has remained high in the Philippines, at almost twice the level of
neighboring countries, despite relatively fast employment growth in the past decade.
Employment growth was not sufficient to reduce unemployment because of rapid
population growth and increased labor force participation.
Despite these situations people in the community were still looking for jobs and
hoping that someday they will be lucky enough to find a job that works for them. Others
are having their own small business around the community to survive for their daily
living.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYZATION AND Justification

The figure shows that out of 74 individuals in Barangay Tambo, Seaside
Paraaque, 67 (90.54%) have blue collar job and the other 7 individuals have white
collar job.
From this figure it is very evident that people in the community are mostly having
jobs that require manual labor and physical task such as carpentry and painting. It is
easily understood because of the education that they have.
Blue-collar work can be unskilled, low-skilled, or highly skilled. Some of the
occupations in this category are construction, maintenance, carpentry, assembly,
plumbing and heating, typesetting, and truck driving. Blue-collar workers often are paid
an hourly rate and are eligible for overtime pay. Some aspects of blue-collar jobs are
unpleasant, such as the risk associated with construction, fire fighting, and law
enforcement. In general blue-collar work is often standardized and less autonomous
than other types of work. Particularly in manufacturing, workers have seen periods of
low job security for many reasons, including the substitutability of physical capital, which
is the machinery and equipment used in production. Another important characteristic is
that blue-collar work has been done mostly by men.

White-collar jobs generally require a fair amount of formal schooling, including

college degrees ranging from associates degrees through professional degrees such
as medicine and jurisprudence and academic degrees such as doctorates. Much of this
white-collar work is performed sitting at a desk in an office environment, such as
engineering, architecture, and bookkeeping. Many of these jobs are well paid, largely
because of the amount of education and skill building required to enter these
occupations.
That is whats lacking in this community, without access to education they can
only be hired as laborers or blue collar work.

The graph shows the adequacy of lighting in each of the interviewed familys
houses. From the 45 families that we interviewed, 36 respondents had adequate lighting
in their homes with a percentage of 80% while 9 (20%) did not have adequate lighting
inside their houses.

Adequate lighting in the house promotes a reduced risk of accidents and health
problems; better concentration and accuracy in any work; a brighter, cleaner area
resulting in a more active, cheerful environment and better visibility.
From the groups observation, most of the familys houses that we interviewed
have adequate source of lighting from the window and light bulb that they are using.
There are some that have inadequate lighting, due to their house is small and close to
each other thats the reason why they cannot install a window.
Accidents can happen due to inadequate lighting. Poor lighting can be a safety
hazard - misjudgment of the position, shape or speed of an object can lead to accidents
and injury. Poor lighting can affect the quality of work, specifically in situation where
precision is required, and overall productivity. Poor lighting can be a health hazard - too
much or too little light strains eyes and may cause eye discomfort (burning, etc.) and
headaches.
It can be easy to improve lighting without increasing the number of light bulbs,
light fixtures or the electric bill. Improved lighting can be achieved by using more
daylight, by changing the position of light sources and by effectively using reflected light.

The figure shows the land ownership in Barangay Tambo, Seaside Paraaque.
38 (84%) families owned the land, 7 (16%) families rented their house while 0% rented
free. These are the results from the 45 families that were being interviewed.
Based from the results, majority of the families owns the land due to the fact that
it is inherited from their elders. Living in urban areas is costly, you will have to pay a lot
of bills, and it is advantageous for the families that own a land that they are not paying
rent, it reduces concern and the money will be intended for their daily needs and
healthcare needs. One advantage of home ownership is you have the ability to do

whatever you want without getting consent from a landlord. Lastly, owning a home can
offer the stability of knowing where you will be living.
Some families are still renting their house; it is disadvantageous because you are
subject to owners rule. You are also subject to the quality in which the owner cares for
the property, which may result in a living situation you consider unpleasant. The greatest
disadvantage for renters is there zero return on your investment for rent payments.
Renters always concern about paying the rent.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

The figure shows the type of housing in the Baranagy Tambo, Seaside
Paraaque. From 45 families being interviewed, twenty-seven (27) respondents with the
percentage of Sixty (60%) have mixed materials used to construct their house. A mixed
material contains hollow block, cement and wood. It can lead to accidents and
occurrence of injuries from falls since it is not that durable or strong built.
Nine (9) respondents with the percentage of twenty (20%) have strong materials
used to construct their houses. Strong materials are concrete, bricks and metals.
Concrete is a building material made from cement and mineral aggregates such as
sand. Concrete is commonly used for home foundations because it can be counted on

to withstand the weight of the home as well as moisture in the ground and the natural
shifting and settling that occurs over the years. If you want to build a home that will last
for generations use bricks. Homes are rarely built from any type of metal. However,
thick steel rods are often used to reinforce homes made of other building materials,
including wood, cement and brick. Additionally, metal is becoming increasingly popular
as a roofing material because metal roofs can withstand time a lot better than roofs of
other materials, and they tend to stand up to extreme weather better.
Nine (9) respondents with the percentage of twenty (20%) have light materials
used to construct their houses. Light materials are made of wood, which are not that
durable, it deteriorates in some years past and it burns immediately if fire accidents
happen.
Lastly is zero (0) respondent with a percentage of Zero (0) have a makeshift
house. Makeshift home are temporary and usually of poor quality, but they are used
because there is nothing better available.
If you're building a home for yourself and your family, you want to ensure that the
resulting structure is a sturdy one that will not only last a lifetime, but it will also be
around when your children have their own children and when your grandchildren, too,
are ready to raise their families. Thus, it's important to select only the strongest building
materials.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

The graph shows the adequacy of lighting in each of the interviewed familys
houses. From the 45 families that we interviewed, 36 respondents had adequate lighting
in their homes with a percentage of 80%. Many people do not have adequate lighting in
key locations in their home, and this is a common source of injury. Make sure you have
adequate lighting for all staircases and dark rooms, and be sure to replace any burnedout bulbs in a timely manner. Benefits of adequate lighting; ease of seeing, families
should be able to see the house clearly and with ease when working. Good illumination
enables the family to see the objects in the house clearly and easily. Reduced eyestrain,

eyestrain is the result of inadequate and bad lighting. It causes fatigue and impairs
vision.
Other families have inadequate lighting in their house, there are 9 (20%)
respondents were in their house lack of lighting. Poor lighting can cause you to fall: Slip
and fall, trip and fall due to inadequate lighting. It can cause fall and get hurt during
household chores because there was not enough light to see properly.
The lights in your home and at the office can make a difference to the way you
feel and can even affect your health.
In fact, according to new research published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology &
Metabolism, exposure to certain types of electric light before bed and at night can
increase the risk of type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and cancer.
Light is critical for our health and wellbeing. Ensuring that we receive adequate
light levels at the appropriate time of day benefits our alertness, mood, productivity,
sleep patterns and many aspects of our physiology.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

The graph shows the adequacy of household ventilation in Barangay Tambo,
Seaside Paraaque. From the 45 families that we interviewed, 28 (62%) respondents
have adequate ventilation in their house. Proper ventilation is vital to your family's health
and comfort. It helps your home rid itself of moisture, smoke, cooking odors, and indoor
pollutants. Controls heat levels, moderates dampness, and keeps moisture out of
uninsulated walls. Kitchens, bathrooms, and laundries are the biggest sources of

moisture and odors. Having enough windows in the house, provide adequate
ventilation, it creates an upward flow of air, cool air flows in the window. Proper
ventilation ensures that adequate fresh, outdoor air flows into a home, which helps to
both control moisture and reduce indoor air pollutants such as particulate matter,
biological contaminants, and harmful gases. Natural ventilation refers to the movement
of air in and out of a home through opened windows and doors can be achieved by the
community if windows and doors are correctly used and installed.
According to the survey, there are houses that have inadequate ventilation, from
45 families being surveyed, 17 (38%) respondents with this kind of house. Many
property owners are unaware of the impact that poor ventilation can have on different
parts of their house. Not only can it create with damp and mould, it can also have a
detrimental effect on the health of all of those who use a house. This is perhaps one of
the most consequences of poor ventilation in a property. A lack of ventilation has been
linked to respiratory diseases such as asthma, and can also facilitate the spread of
diseases. It has also been linked with allergies, pneumonia, fatigue, nausea, dry eyes,
headaches and nasal congestion. However, by installing a system that helps to
distribute air evenly throughout at home, it is possible to avoid these unpleasant sideeffects.
Natural ventilation is probably one of the most cost-effective ways to improve air
flow, as it comes with no running costs and does not use up energy.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

The graph presents the type of food storage used by the families interviewed in
Barangay Tambo, Seaside Paranaque City. Out of 45 families, twenty-two percent of
them (22%) or 10 respondents using refrigerators for storage of food and 35
respondents or seventy eight percent (78%) use container covered for their food
storage.
According to our surveys, majority of the families are using container covered for
their food storage. Left over foods that not refrigerated can be contaminated or a
possibility to be spoiled. When this happen food poisoning may occur, also called
foodborne illness - is caused by harmful organisms, such as bacteria in contaminated
food. Because bacteria typically don't change the taste, smell or look of food, you can't

tell whether a food is dangerous to eat. So if you're in doubt about a food's safety, it's
best to throw it out. Food that has been left too long on the counter may be dangerous
to eat, but could look fine. Fortunately, most cases of food poisoning can be prevented
with proper food handling.
A refrigerator is one of the most important pieces of equipment in the kitchen for
keeping foods safe. We are instantly reminded of its importance to our daily lives when
the power goes off or the unit fails, putting our food's safety in jeopardy. Refrigeration
slows bacterial growth. Bacteria exist everywhere in nature. They are in the soil, air,
water, and the foods we eat. When they have nutrients (food), moisture, and favorable
temperatures, they grow rapidly, increasing in numbers to the point where some types
of bacteria can cause illness. Food that has been stored too long in the refrigerator or
freezer may be of lessened quality, but most likely would not make anyone sick.
(However, some bacteria such as Listeria monocytogenes thrive at cold temperatures,
and if present, will multiply in the refrigerator over time and could cause illness.)
Cook the food well and if there are leftover pre-heat before eating. Cool down
leftovers as quickly as possible (ideally within 90 minutes), store them in the fridge and
eat them within 2 days.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

The graph shows the type of water supplied to the community in Barangay
Tambo, Seaside Paraaque City. The residents in the community use level 1 for their
water supply. From our observation, majority or 45 families (100%) are using.
As we look around the area we noticed and seen that the pipelines have
NAWASA or National water and Sewarage Authority as their source of water supply.
Water is essential for the human body to function. The body cannot store water
and must have fresh supplies every day to perform virtually every metabolic process.
Babies and the elderly are vulnerable to lack or dehydration. Not drinking enough water
increases the risk of kidney stones and, in women, urinary tract infections.
The National Water and Sewerage Authority (NAWASA) is currently the only
agency in water supply and sewerage collection, treatment and disposal. NAWASA is a

premier water utility, providing customers with a safe, adequate and reliable water
supply, as well as safe disposal of waste water in a viable and efficient manner.
The human body can last week without food, but only days without water. That is
how important water is in our body. Avoid drinking dirty or contaminated water. Cholera ,
a bacterial illness, can be acquired when sources of drinking water have been
contaminated. Malaria is caused by a parasite, and a virus causes Dengue fever. Both
malaria and Dengue fever are carried by mosquitoes, which lay their larvae in still water.
The amount of water we need depends on our body size, metabolism, the
weather, the food we eat and our activity levels.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

The graph showed the type of drinking water in the community of Barangay
Tambo Seaside Paranaque City. From 45 families interviewed, 38 (84%) is at level 3
while 7 respondents or (16%) drinking other water supply such as mineral water.
Majority of the families drinks water directly from the faucet, where NAWASA is
the source of their water supply. Based on our research, water from NAWASA is safe
and a reliable water supply. Despite this it is still important to boil or filter the water from
NAWASA before drinking because there is a possibility that the water coming from them
could be contaminated, if we can drink contaminated water that contains
microorganisms such as Giardia (a common microorganism that if not killed, leads to
intestinal disorders), bacteria, or viruses that can lead to infections. Boiling, filtering, or
chemically treating water can remove or kill microorganisms. How many minutes to boil

water until safe to drink: 30 minutes at 16 degree Fahrenheit; 3 minutes at 185 degree
Fahrenheit and instant at 212 degree Fahrenheit.
Water is essential to good health. There are many different opinions on how much
water we should be drinking every day. The health authorities commonly
recommend eight 8-ounce glasses, which equals about 2 liters, or half a gallon. This is
called the 88 rule and is very easy to remember. But in according to other research,
your water needs depend on many factors, including your health, how active you are
and where you live. Water is our body's principal chemical component and makes up
about 60 percent of our body weight. Every system in our body depends on water. Lack
of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don't have enough
water in your body to carry out normal functions. Even mild dehydration can drain your
energy and make you tired.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

The graph showed the type of water treatment method of the families in
Barangay Tambo, Seaside Paraaque City. From 45 families interviewed 20 (44%)
respondent use boiling. Water boiled before drinking it is one of the recommended
practices by health officers especially the third world countries where their source of
drinking water is not safe and sometimes the causes for some incidence of common
illness for children. To ward off the impending occurrence of water-borne diseases,
boiling your drinking water is the safest way, study shows that water boiled for three
minutes kills bacteria, including disease-causing organisms and giardia cysts.
Respondent using filtration is 7 families or 16%. Water filtration also makes water
taste better. When water tastes better, people are more likely to drink it. There are
plenty of ways to filter your water, and they all hold some kind of importance for your
wellbeing.

On the other hand, no one is using Sedimentation as a method of water

treatment. Sedimentation is a physical water treatment process using gravity to
remove suspended solids from water. Solid particles entrained by the turbulence of
moving water may be removed naturally by sedimentation in the still water of lakes
and oceans.
There are 4 families or 9% purchasing bottled mineral water that uses mostly by
babies or children in the family while other families 14 (31%) are not using any method
of water treatment. These families drink directly the water coming from their faucets.
The water is found almost everywhere on Earth. Water resources like rivers,
lakes, which provide water contain a lot of pollution, garbage unfit for consumption. To
be clean, the water should undergo a number of treatments necessary to make it
drinkable.

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

The graph shows the frequency percentage of presence of pests in the families
houses in Barangay Tambo Seaside Paranaque City. From the total of 45 or families
that was interviewed all of them or 100% indicated the presence of pests such as
cockroach, rodents, flies, insects present in every household.
It is inevitable that pests will invade our homes. It is always best to have these
pests controlled by the individual and community who know how to do it with less cost
and safer for you, and your family. The results indicate that all or (100%) of the families
that was interviewed had presence of pests such as cockroach, rodents, flies, insects
which is very alarming especially because it is the cause of poor sanitation.

A clean home will always have fewer pests than a dirty home, but that doesnt
mean that the clean one doesnt have any. Some insects can survive without food and
they are capable of living in your home while being completely unnoticed. All that is left
to do is keep them out of your sight and keep their numbers at bay.
Sanitation and exclusion through sealing possible entry points are the best ways
of preventing pest problems. Aside from these are less costly, they have been proven to
be more effective means of keeping pests away from your property. Seal tiny holes
around the facility to keep ants from establishing passageway through your area.
Concerns for the environment and the requirements by regulators for improved
practices in the industry have meant that new methods to control pests have had to be
developed.

This graph shows the frequency percentage of the domesticated animals present
in Barangay Tambo Seaside Paranaque City. From the families that was interviewed
nine or (36%) have been domesticating cats, fifteen or (60%) has dogs, one or (4%)has
a pet rabbit.
Almost every household in the Philippines has a pet dog. Dogs, after all, are
supposed to be Mans Best Friend. Their loyalty, intelligence, and of course cuteness
make them endearing to pet owners. While36% who have cats also preferred pet by
people who want low-maintenance animal companions. Cats are not as high

maintenance as dogs. They are a little bit independent. You can leave for a longer
period of time. And rabbit with 4% may be easy to love, but theyre not quite as easy to
care for. These lovable, social animals are wonderful companions for people who take
the time to learn about their needs.
The condition that such facilities are adequate, clean and sanitary, and that they
will not be used for nor cause pain and/or suffering to the animals is a continuing
requirement for the operation of these establishments. Aside from rabies, the ordinance
authors also expressed apprehension over zoonotic diseases or diseases that can be

INTERPRETATION, ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION

This graph shows the status of pregnancy at Barangay Tambo Seaside
Paraaque City. There were sixteen 16 individuals who had their Pregnancy last year
and four (4) that was Pregnant as of this year (2015).
This indicates all age groups have contributed to the decline in pregnancy rates
as of this year (2015). The observed graphical presentation of the frequency percentage
status of pregnancy can most likely be attributed to changes in family planning practices
and programs.
Fertility trends can also be established using retrospective data from a single
survey. It uses information from the retrospective birth histories obtained in the 2008
NDHS to examine trends in age-specific fertility rates for successive five-year periods
before the survey. To calculate these rates, births were classified according to the period
of time in which the birth occurred and the mothers age at the time of birth.
