Gaano Kalayo Dapat ang mga Cell Sites sa Isa’t-isa?
Depende ito sa Coverage, Capacity, Quality, at syempre — Cost.
⸻
1. Coverage
Para makarating ang signal sa mga tao, kailangan ng cell site na kayang i-cover ang target area.
Dito, gamit ang low-frequency bands (like 700 MHz) kasi kaya nilang tumagos sa mga bahay, puno, at structures, at mag propagate ng mas malayo.
Pero kahit malakas ang signal, kung bundok, mataas na buildings, o makapal ang surroundings (tinatawag na “clutter”), pwedeng mahirapan pa rin ang signal. Kaya minsan kahit rural, kailangan pa ring magdagdag ng site.
Usually mga 2 to 5 kilometers in open areas,
Pero pwedeng mas malapit kapag maraming harang o mas mataas ang demand.
⸻
2. Capacity
Kapag dumami na ang tao, demand, at devices sa isang lugar, hindi na sapat ang isang cell site.
Kailangan dagdagan ang capacity — puwedeng magdagdag ng frequency (carrier), sectorization, o literal na bagong cell site.
Dito na pumapasok ang mid- to high-frequency bands (like 1800, 2100, 2600 MHz) na kaya ang maraming users, pero mas maikli ang abot.
Kaya sa city or crowded areas, kailangan ng mas maraming cell sites, usually every 500 meters to 2 kilometers, depende pa rin sa terrain at building clutter.
⸻
3. Quality
Kapag maraming cell sites at maraming frequency na ginagamit, may risk ng interference — magsasapawan ang signals.
Diyan na kailangan ng maayos na frequency planning, antenna, at parameter optimization para hindi magulo ang signal.
Minsan sobrang dami ng overlapping cells = poor quality kahit malapit ka na sa tower.
⸻
And finally — Cost.
Hindi puwedeng lagay lang ng lagay ng towers.
Mas maraming cell sites = mas mahal.
Kaya ang telcos ay nagde-design ng network na balanse sa tatlong pillars (coverage, capacity, quality) habang iniisip ang gastos.
Ang tawag dito: optimum design — sapat ang signal, kaya ang dami ng users, malinaw ang connection, at hindi sunog sa budget.
⸻
Bottom line:
Hindi lang ito basta distansya.
Cell site placement is a balance of:
• Gaano kalawak ang dapat abutin (Coverage)
• Gaano karaming users ang kayang sabay-sabay (Capacity)
• Gaano kalinaw at tuloy-tuloy ang connection (Quality)
• At gaano ito kakayanin ng budget (Cost)

COMMON INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND HOW TO ANSWER THEM.
By Mr VIDAMBU Sam.
1. TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF ?
The interviewer is not interested in hearing stories; they simply expect to know your academic and professional achievements, your name and the institution you currently work for. Take a minute to introduce yourself, and state your recent academic qualification and your relevant experience (if any).
''My name is [Your Name] and I am a recent graduate of [University Name] with a Bachelors of Science in [Degree]. I am a highly motivated and adaptable individual with a passion for learning and growth. I thrive in fast-paced environments and constantly look for ways to improve and take on new challenges.
In my previous role as a [Position Name] at [Company Name], I was responsible for [List of Responsibilities]. I have a proven track record of success in [List of Accomplishments].
I am excited to learn more about the [Position Name] position at [Company Name] and believe that my skills and experience would be a valuable asset to your team.''
2. WHY DO YOU THINK YOU ARE THE BEST CANDIDATE?
The recruiter expects you to tell them about your professional achievements and the unique skills you possess that will add value to the organization. If you are a Customer Care graduate then you should tell them that you are a good listener and patient; these are the qualities the employer is looking for.
"I believe I am the best candidate for this customer care role because of my skills and experience, as well as my passion for helping others. I have a strong academic background in customer care, and I have also gained valuable experience through my internships and volunteer work. I am a good listener and I am patient, which are essential qualities for a customer care representative. I am also a team player and I am always willing to go the extra mile to help my colleagues and customers.
In addition to my customer care skills, I am also a highly motivated and adaptable individual. I am always willing to learn new things and I am always looking for ways to improve. I am also a quick learner and I am able to grasp new concepts quickly.
I am confident that I have the skills and experience necessary to be successful in this role, and I am eager to learn more about your company and how I can contribute to your team. I am also passionate about helping others, and I believe that my customer care skills would be a valuable asset to your company."
3. WHAT ARE YOUR WEAKNESSES?
The question is not simple as it looks; most candidates go blank when they face this kind of question. Take your time in explaining why you can’t leave the office before you complete a task. You can also inform them how you are quick to trust a person, which in most cases makes you a victim.
For example, if you are interviewing for a customer care role, you might say that your weakness is that you are a perfectionist, and that you sometimes have trouble letting go of tasks until you are absolutely sure that they are perfect. You could then explain that you are working on this by setting deadlines for yourself and by delegating tasks to others when necessary.
Here are some other examples of weaknesses that you could mention in an interview:
Procrastination: "I sometimes procrastinate on tasks that I don't enjoy, but I am working on this by setting deadlines for myself and by breaking down large tasks into smaller ones."
Hello Delegation: "I have difficulty delegating tasks to others, but I am working on this by learning to trust my colleagues and by giving them clear instructions."
Communication: "I sometimes have difficulty communicating my ideas clearly, but I am working on this by practicing my communication skills with friends and family members."
Organization: "I can be disorganized sometimes, but I am working on this by using to-do lists and by setting up systems to help me keep track of my work."
Public speaking: "I get nervous when I have to speak in public, but I am working on this by taking public speaking classes and by practicing giving presentations to friends and family members."
No matter what weakness you choose to mention, be sure to explain how you are working to improve it. This shows the interviewer that you are self-aware and that you are committed to personal growth.
4. WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN FIVE YEARS?
The employer wants to know whether you are ambitious or you’re the kind of a person who secures a job and then you forget about yourself. Answer the question by stating how you intend to further your studies and grow professionally as you strive to meet your employer’s goals.
(It is important to tie your goals to your employer's goals because no employer would be willing to hire and invest in a rookie who will leave their organization in a year or less after they have invested in training the individual).
"In five years, I see myself working as a customer care manager, leading a team of customer care representatives and helping to ensure that our customers have the best possible experience. I am also interested in developing my training skills and becoming a mentor to new customer care representatives.
I believe that my skills and experience in customer care, as well as my passion for helping others, make me a good fit for this role. I am also a quick learner and I am eager to take on new challenges. I am confident that I can achieve my goals and become a valuable asset to your team."
5. HOW DO FRIENDS DESCRIBE YOU?
The question is testing your personal attributes, when answering it ensure that you don’t over exaggerate. Take the shortest time possible to state the best attribute you possess that you believe will add value to the institution.
My friends would describe me as a good listener and a caring person. I am always willing to help others, and I am always there for them when they need me. I am also a good communicator, and I am able to connect with people easily.
6. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS COMPANY?
Before you enter the interview room, ensure that you go through the company website to read latest news, company profile, goals, management team, objectives, vision and mission; they will help you answer this question.
(where the company is unknown, do your research and be familiar with the business/industry you desire to build your career).
The question expects you to briefly describe what you read on their website and not what you imagine of the company.
Here is an example of how to answer the question "What do you know about our company?" for a customer care role at Google:
"I know that Google is a multinational technology company that specializes in Internet-related services and products. It is one of the world's most valuable companies, and it is known for its innovative products and services, such as the Google Search engine, the Android operating system, and the Google Cloud Platform.
I am also familiar with Google's mission statement, which is to 'organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.' I believe that this mission statement is very important, and I am excited to learn more about how Google is working to achieve it.
I am particularly interested in working for Google because I am passionate about customer service. I believe that Google is a company that values its customers, and I am committed to providing them with the best possible experience."
7. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTION TO ASK THE PANEL?
This is usually the last question that the interview panel asks interviewees; if you fail to ask them questions, you will lose some marks, always have a question to ask no matter what. Ask them whether they have plans to expand their business, whether they support employees to further their studies and how they motivate employees. You can pull a surprise by asking when you would start, it shows confidence.
Here are some questions you can ask the interviewer at the end of your interview:
- What are the biggest challenges facing your team right now?
- What opportunities are there for professional development and growth in this role?
- What is the company culture like?
- What are your expectations for the first 90 days in this role?
- What are the next steps in the hiring process?
You can also ask more specific questions about the company's plans, products, or services. For example, you could ask:
- Do you have any plans to expand your business into new markets?
- Are there any new products or services in the pipeline?
- How do you measure success in this role?
Here is an example of how to ask the question "When would I start?" in a confident way:
"I am very excited about the opportunity to work at your company, and I am eager to learn more about the role. When would I start if I were offered the position?"
8. WHAT IS YOUR SALARY EXPECTATION?
The question is tricky because as a fresh graduate you don’t have a clue what to be paid; simply ask them what they pay others of your level, if they fail to give a satisfactory answer then give them a reasonable range. Ensure you do your research before you go for interview room because you must be asked this question.
"Given that I am a recent graduate, I am still familiarizing myself with industry-standard compensation. However, I have conducted thorough research on salaries for comparable roles in this region, and I understand that the typical range is between Ksh. 30,000 and Ksh. 40,000 per month. While I am flexible regarding my salary, I am keen to ensure that my compensation aligns fairly with my qualifications and the value I bring to the team."
Last but not least, Delete these from your CV.
1. Marital status.
2. Your high school and primary details if you have attended college.
3. Your date of birth.
4. Your religion.
5. Your hobbies. Nobody is going to shortlist your CV because you love traveling. Unless it is a travel agent job.
6. Inappropriate email addresses (e.g. Dramaqueen, CaroMsupa, crazygamer, PartyAnimal4Life not going to get you a job): Use professional email like "[Your Name]@ [Email Provider]".
7. Long paragraphs: Use bullet points to make it clearer (also, most recruiters don't have time to read through all your words).
8. Irrelevant work experience. Example you are applying for nutrition job and you indicate that you have been working as a sales executive of nivea.
9. Irrelevant Skills . Example Applying for an Accountant position but mentioning “Heavy Machinery Operation”.
10. Lastly remove your ID number.
Irrelevant stuff you include to make your CV long might in most cases work against you.
Quick CV fixes to save you from job rejections:
1. Replace your career objective or Bio with a strong professional summary .
2. Ensure target role keywords demonstrated in your resume.
3. Start each sentence with a strong action verb.
4. Make your template/formatting consistent.
5. Optimal use of white space (Not too much).
6. Save resume with your name (Last_First_Resume).
7. Always submit your resume as a PDF (Especially if format is complex).
8. Showcase your achievements than listing duties.
9. Ensure your document is ATS friendly.

The work of commentaries is to comment. The work of critics is to criticize. And the work of toxic critics is to see negative things in everything.

You Are Blessed.
Be kind to your parents. It’s their first time living too.
They didn’t get a manual. They raised you while carrying their own pain. They worked while they were tired. They tried their best.
They didn’t always say the right words. They didn’t always show love the way you needed. But they tried in small ways. A packed meal. A “Where are you?” A quiet wait by the door.
Sometimes they were too strict. Sometimes they were distant. But look closer. Behind the worry was love. Behind the silence was stress.
They are not perfect. But they gave all that they could.
So be kind. Be patient. They’re still learning too. Just like you.

WISDOM FROM RICH DAD.
From the book Rich DAD Poor DAD, by Robert Kiyosaki
1. Don’t work for money:
Rich don’t work for money. If you work for money, your mind will start thinking like an employee. If you start thinking differently like a rich man, you will see things differently. Rich works on their asset column, every dollar in their asset column is their hard-working employee.
2. Don’t be controlled by emotions:
Some people’s lives are always controlled by the two emotions of fear and greed. Fear keeps people in this trap of working hard, earning money, working hard, earning money, and hoping that it will reduce their fear. Secondly, most of us have the greed to get rich quickly. Yes, many people become rich overnight, but they have no financial education. So educate yourself and don’t be greedy or fearful.
3. Acquire assets:
Don’t buy liabilities on your way to financial freedom. People buy liabilities and think these are assets, but they are not. Many people buy luxuries first, like big cars, heavy bikes, or big houses to live in. But the rich buy assets and their assets buy luxuries. The rich buy houses and rent them, and they pay them for their Lamborghinis. The poor or middle class buy luxuries first, and the rich buy luxuries last.
4. Remember the KISS principle:
KISS stands for keeping it simple, and stupid. Don’t be too overloaded your mind when you are going to start your way to financial freedom. Things are simple and keep them simple. The simple thing to remember is assets put money in pocket and liabilities take money out of pocket. Always buy assets so they put money into your pocket.
5. Know the difference between assets and liabilities:
Assets are anything that puts money in your pocket, like stocks, bonds, real estate, mutual funds, rental properties, etc. Liabilities are anything that pulls money out of your pocket, like your house, your car, debt, etc. People think their home is their biggest asset, but it is not. A house is an asset when it generates money like when you rent a house, it generates money, and when your life in that house becomes a liability.
6. Don’t be a financial illiterate:
A person can be highly educated and become successful in their profession, but financially illiterate. Financial education is very important for any individual. Our schools and colleges did not teach us financial education. Many financial problems arise as a result of a lack of financial education. Start learning financial education and I suggest you read the book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad".
7. Increase your Wealth:
Wealth is defined as a person's ability to survive for a certain number of days in the future, or how long they could survive if they stopped working today. Consider your wealth and whether you would survive if you stopped working today for a year.
8. Mind your own business:
If you have a job, keep your job and start a part-time business and work it. Use the time that you spend on your iPhone, parties, or any other activity, to build your business. Never leave your job until you build your own business. Don’t struggle all of your life for someone else. Start your own business and grow your business.
9. Train your mind:
Your biggest asset is your mind. Many individuals watch opportunities with their eyes, but if you train your mind, you can see opportunities with your mind. If you train your mind well, it can create enormous wealth.
10. Learn technical skills:
Your financial IQ will be raised by learning these four technical skills:
Accounting is defined as the ability to read numbers. If you want to build an empire, then this is an essential skill. By learning this skill, you will be able to understand the strength and weaknesses of a business.

Testing the battery and alternator with a multimeter is a simple procedure that allows you to determine whether both components are working properly. Here's how to perform both tests.
1. **How to test the drums:*
To test your vehicle's battery, follow these steps:
1. **Adjusts the Multimeter:*
- Place the multimeter in the DC voltage measurement function, selecting a range of 20V if it is a manual multimeter.
2. **Connect the multimeter wires:*
- Connect the red multimeter cable to the positive (+) terminal of the battery.
- Connect the black cable to the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
3. **Read the voltage on the screen:*
- With the motor off, a fully charged battery should show a voltage between **12.6V and 12.8V**.
- If the voltage is between **12.4V and 12.6V**, the battery is partially charged, and if it is less than **12.4V**, the batteries may be discharged or deteriorated.
4. **Test Under Loading:*
- With the multimeter still connected, it turns on the lights, the radio and other accessories to charge the battery.
- Voltage should not fall below **12V**. If it falls significantly, it is possible that the battery is defective.
2. **How to Test the Alternator:*
To check if the alternator is charging correctly, follow these steps:
1. **Starts the engine:*
- Get the engine running.
2. **Connect the multimeter wires:*
- With the engine running, re-connect the red cable to the positive (+) terminal of the battery and the black cable to the negative terminal (-).
3. **Measures Voltage:*
- With the motor slow motion, the voltage should be between **13.8V and 14.8V**. This indicates that the alternator is charging the battery correctly.
- If the voltage is less than **13.8V**, the alternator may not be providing enough charge, which could indicate a problem.
- If the voltage is higher than **14.8V**, the alternator could be overloading the battery, which is also a problem.
4. **Test Under Loading:*
- Turn on the headlights, air conditioning, and other electrical accessories to simulate a higher charge in the system.
- Voltage should remain stable between **13.8V and 14.8V**. If it drops below **13.8V** or rises above **14.8V**, the alternator could be failing.
Recap
- **Battery:* 12.6V - 12.8V with the motor off.
- **Alternator:* 13.8V - 14.8V with the engine running.
Performing these tests will help you identify if the battery and alternator are in good condition or if they need to be replaced or repaired.

I did not vote for VP Leni Robredo. In fact, I was a Duterte-Cayetano supporter. I would like to believe that I was objective since I called out our president when he made sexist jokes and supported the burial of Marcos. But because I disliked Mar, PNoy and the Liberal Party so much, I automatically disliked Leni and everything she represented, especially the people she affiliated with. This was in 2016.
In 2018, I was already feeling so uncomfortable with having to “defend” our president and have gotten so sick of listening to his ramblings. I had the opportunity to be a researcher for our debate team and our topic was about the West Philippine Sea dispute. This was my turning point. Our own president could not even protect our sovereignty and portrayed such a defeatist attitude. I was disappointed not only in him, but also in myself. Because I banked so much on his promises and he put my hopes up just to crush it. It was a gradual transition, but his stand on the WPS dispute was the last straw for me.
I know it took 2 years, but it’s better than being an avid cult fan until today. The twitter trend is so apt: Kung di ka pa galit, bakit?
Moving forward to January 2020, we were all clamoring for a plan and a strategy to prevent covid from coming into our country, but our calls were unheeded. Until, of course, March 2020 happened. What was preventable and could have been mitigated became a nightmare of outrageous proportions. Duque and our president said we were ready and prepared for COVID but, of course, we were far from prepared. Doctors and healthcare workers were not equipped to battle this because we did not have enough PPEs.
Living in Iligan City, I felt that we would definitely be the last ones they would help because NCR was the hotspot of the virus. My brother-in-law was the only infectious disease specialist in our city and I was so afraid for him. I knew I had to do something. ANYTHING! I tried to contact suppliers in the Philippines, in China, and in the US for PPEs. I also coordinated with other groups and our college for donations. We could not leave our health workers to die just because of our inept and unprepared government. We had to do our part.
I was scrolling through Facebook and I saw all these contact numbers we can reach out to, so I contacted as many as possible. Until I contacted someone who knew Leni Robredo’s daughter. All I did was give my brother-in-law’s name, the hospital name, and the address. It was as simple as that. That was the ONLY time I felt like a high-ranking official, WHO I DID NOT PERSONALLY KNOW and did not have any CONNECTIONS to, would actually LISTEN to an ordinary person like me. Honestly, that floored me. Kaya naman pala? Then I started following Leni and saw how she keeps updating people through her social media accounts. The transparency, the willingness to reach out to those who would normally be ignored unless you know someone in power, and the genuineness. All that hard work, given her very LIMITED budget and powers. KAYA NAMAN PALA kahit walang emergency powers. All these feelings I felt for what she did, I was not able to feel because I was “loyal” to a person, to a party, and to a change I thought could be brought about by one person. We can be so blinded by the good that others do just because we want one person to do so well, even when they keep disappointing you. Hiwalayan mo na.
But just because VP Leni did this, I will not hesitate to call her out if need be. This is only proof that we need to be loyal to our country and our countrymen, and not to people in power. The things that Leni (and may I mention Vico Sotto) is doing are things that SHOULD be expected of a public servant. But because we have gotten so used to mediocrity, we accept the LEAST that our government is doing when they can do so much more.
Let’s hold our leaders accountable because the policies they push for TODAY will greatly affect our children’s future.

Businessman vs. Entrepreneur
Although often used interchangeably, the terms "businessman" and "entrepreneur" refer to distinct roles with unique goals, mindsets, and approaches. Here's a breakdown of their key differences:
Core Purpose:
- Businessman: Focuses on running and growing existing businesses. The emphasis lies in efficiency, profitability, and following proven business models.
- Entrepreneur: Seeks out new opportunities, whether by launching startups or disrupting current markets. Their core focus is innovation, taking risks, and turning ideas into successful ventures.
Approach to Risk:
- Businessman: Typically risk-averse, leaning toward stability and well-established markets. They prioritize refining and optimizing what's already in place.
- Entrepreneur: Willingly takes calculated risks to break new ground. They embrace uncertainty and are comfortable navigating through unknowns to create something original.
Innovation vs. Execution:
- Businessman: Concentrates on refining operations and executing existing strategies with precision. While improvements are welcome, the main goal is consistent, reliable growth.
- Entrepreneur: Innovation is at the heart of their work. They aim to solve problems in new ways and introduce groundbreaking products or services to the market.
Strategic Role:
- Businessman: Works within an established strategic framework, ensuring smooth execution and profitability of the business model.
- Entrepreneur: Crafts and drives their own vision, often steering industries in new directions. They play an active role in shaping the future of their ventures.
Motivational Drivers:
- Businessman: Primarily motivated by financial gains, market dominance, and business longevity.
- Entrepreneur: While profit matters, they’re often fueled by passion, impact, and the desire to bring meaningful change or fulfill a personal mission.
Growth Mindset:
- Businessman: Aims for steady, sustainable expansion using proven strategies and market insights.
- Entrepreneur: Targets fast, scalable growth, frequently pushing boundaries and responding quickly to feedback and change.
Conclusion:
Both businessmen and entrepreneurs are vital to the economy, but they operate with different mindsets. Businessmen excel in refining and managing established ventures, while entrepreneurs thrive on innovation, disruption, and creating new paths. Recognizing these differences helps us better appreciate the diverse ways individuals contribute to progress and growth.
Day 2 ng exam ngayon. May nahuli akong nangodigo. Hinayaan ko, baka pag pinagalitan ko, verbal abuse. May nangopya, hinayaan ko, baka ma trauma pag pinagalitan ko. Pupunitin ko sana yung papel kaso baka mapahiya, magka mental breakdown. Maingay, hayaan mo, baka pag sinigawan mo magka anxiety. May nagsisigawan habang exam, nakatakot sabihan baka mauwi sa child abuse. Ayoko ng magalit, baka magkaroon sila ng mental depression. I learned my lesson. Students nowadays are weak. Weakness developed by the tolerating laws which criminalized and penalized teachers who do their job as a second parent. In fact, they are no longer a second parent. They are robots. Don’t get surprise five to ten years from now, we have a demanding, entitled society. Because that’s what you started. You gave a child protection policy, but there is none for teachers, and you expect us to be their second parents? A second parent gets mad when their child misbehave. A second parent do not tolerate misconduct. A second parent scolds a child and it is supposed to be okay but you made it crime doing our job as a second parent. Hello students, hello Philippines!
Goodluck to the future!
