Cordillera Hymn

Cradled by majestic mountains

Blest with nature's flowing fountains

Blooming flow'rs and verdant hills

Is a region of murmuring rills

Refrain:

Cordillera, Region of wonder hail

Beloved land, your name we shall not fail,

Honor and fame to you we'll strive to bring

Your glory won, we shall forever sing.

Here dwell freedom loving people 

Strong our band its hard to topple

For our freedom we rise and fight

Our priceless ancestral birth right.

(repeat refrain)

Neath the sky the rains may gather

Angry clouds may craz'ly wander

But the sun shines forever fair

As we climb up the golden stair.

(repeat refrain)

Dreams of peace and oneness and progress

Cherished goals our region presses

Striving to build a brighter dawn,

For our children to call their own.

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE

The Issue Solving System

Purpose: to solve issues about the centre

Following is the example given to the team.

1. Issue Number :1
2. Issue Description: the train is late
3. Reason(s) Why?: engine is too weak
4. Suggested Solution: buy a new tractor
5. Issue Priority (program manager): (disagreed) too expensive, proposed to put less load in the train.
6. Action Plan (split solutions into several actions)(Program Manager): inform supervisor of new limits
7. Deadline: May 20
8. Action's Owner: from mars

Might be wondering what is this all about.. It was a proposal created by none other than the initiator of the said problem. There was no issue actually only if he did not bring his own problem from planet mars. He thought doing all those small problems would not affect the group. He did not realize problems may come in what he considered as "small things". Generally speaking, it was his professionalism being questioned and to be solved in here. He was upset when the group did their best to let him understand simple basic rules to the extent of waving his educational attainment due to his inflated ego . Problems worsened so the group sought the advise of the "experts", thus the above proposal was created. Har har har...Anyway, what happened was that he did not admit his unprofessional ism. Well, it was a mission impossible for him and to us working with an impossible person.
