2.2 in all institutions or company they always have a foundation to help and give back
what they receive from the things they do. Like the The FEU Educational Foundation
Inc., a non-stock, non-profit organization established on March 12, 1996 aims to seek
the additional resources needed to help ensure that Far Eastern University provides the
best education possible for its students to strengthen its position as the country’s non-
sectarian university of learning through faculty development and infrastructure
improvement.
The gifts and donations given to FEU Educational Foundation supports any or all of the
following programs:

Continuing education programs. These comes in the forms of graduate fellowships

programs, faculty exchange programs and student scholarship endowment grants.
inkages with business and industry to enhance student and faculty services.

Professorial Chairs for the enhancement of professional courses

Special Projects relevant to the Foundation’s mission.

The FEU-EFI is funded by contributions from the private sector, including contributions
and donations from private corporations, foundations, funding agencies, trusts,
individuals and alumni and friends of Far Eastern University.
The Foundation is a qualified, non-profit organization and is exempt from income taxes
on operations. The Foundation is a qualified tax-exempt donee foundation.

2.3 To capture the hearts of the current and potential students of feu, they design a
website to give information and updates about what’s going on with the school. Also,
they put a FEU social networking site like Facebook,they also have twitter so that
people will get in touch with each other bcause everyone is in to social networking sites.
They have online services where they can access their accounts and grades. They can
also enrol online and it would be easier for the students who live in the provinces who
cannot immediately go or visit FEU if necessary.

RFID

Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is a technology that allows automatic

identification of objects, animals or people by incorporating a small electronic chip on its
"host". Data is stored on this chip and can then be "read" by wireless devices, called
RFID readers.

How does it improves business?

The concept is similar to traditional barcodes. A barcode

represents information in a condensed format (usually
lines) that takes little space and can be read by a
machine.

Compared to barcodes, RFID tags are "smarter": the

information on the micro-chip can be read automatically,
at a distance, by another wireless machine. This means
RFID is easier to use and more efficient than barcodes:
there is no need to pass each individual
object/animal/person in front of a scanner to retrieve the
information contained in each tag.

Linked to databases and communication networks such

as the Internet, Smart Tags can help to:

• detect counterfeit pharmaceuticals

• track the lifecycle of dangerous chemicals
• identify the location of a container
• sort pallets in a warehouse, etc.

Philippines transport agency to implement RFID on vehicles

As I was driving yesterday towards Makati, I was listening to my favorite radio program,
“Dos por Dos” hosted by Anthony Taberna and Jerry Baja over at DZMM. Their guest,
LTO ChiefBert Suansing announced that starting next year, the Land Transportation
Office (LTO), an agency who regulates the registration of vehicles, will implement the
installation of RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) chips on all vehicle registrations
and renewals, inlcuding all motorbikes.

As an IT person, I find this a good news and an awesome development. LTO has been
doing its best in updating its systems, especially on getting new or renewing driver’s
licenses. It used to be a whole day affair of queuing at LTO offices, but now, you can
renew and get your driver’s license for less than an hour.

According to the LTO, there are a total of 5.5 million vehicles (cars, trucks, buses,
etc.) currently registered in the Philippines (a rather low count in my opinion, if you
include those dilapidated trucks and buses that are still running). There are also 2
million registered motorbikes. The RFID system will facilitate easy processing of these
vehicles, during registration, and in times of emergency such as accidents. It will also
allow traffic police to easily identify a vehicle during hot pursuits, apprehensions and
during flagging for violations. It may also a deterrent to carnapping, a problem that still
haunts major cities in Metro Manila. According to statistics from the police, there are on
the average 2 cars stolen in Metro Manila everyday. Quezon City in northern Metro
Manila still holds the title of “Carnapping” Capital of the Philippines.

However, there are things to be seriously considered when installing and implementing
RFID chips on vehicles. The RFID, is now commonly used in many ways from
Emplyoee IDs, door security, equipment tagging, animal tagging, highway electronic
passes, to carpark entry and in vehicle security systems. RFID chips/tags stores
information and just like any other device, is prone to manipulation and hacking.

Although with the advent of more secured devices like the 128-bit secured chips, some
RFID chip cloners may still be able to hack into it. Every gadget geek may still easily get
the information or worse, take control of the device. Therefore, LTO should not bid on
RFID devices that do not provide better security. A secured RFID chip may cost more,
but it is extremely necessary. LTO also disclosed that the RFID chip may cost about
Php200.00. I hope this is the secured RFID chip type, else we all head up into a major
national disaster.

But, still, some few important questions remain – will it not be used by some corrupt
LTO officials, crook traffic officers and other people who have direct access to the RFID
database and information. I believe the RFID will contain some sensitive information
that a person wouldn’t want to be known by any other person who may have bad
intentions or motives. The RFID will replace the Car Registration certificate that every
Filipino driver is required to bring along every time he uses his vehicle. And this
document holds some sensitive information.
What type of information should be included in the RFID chip aside from the Car
Registration number, vehicle plate number, chassis number, make and model, color and
type? To what extent of the owner information should be embedded in the chip?

I hope these questions will be answered by the LTO in the coming days.
