From PHilMech To PhilRice



As President Noynoy Aquino starts his first day today, July 1, 2010 in Malacanang, so is this blogger, at his new employer at the Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice). He just signed a work contract as full-time consultant for at least 6 months from today until the last working day of Dec. 2010. His job will be focused on the evaluation and development of PhilRice courseware specifically intended for the Rice Specialists' Training Course (RSTC), a some kind of work he was honed throughout his three decades of government service.

As one may remember, this blogger was one of the 19 rationalized officers and staff of the Philippine Center for Postharvest Development and Mechanization (PHilMech, formerly BPRE) and thus, retired from the service under Exec. Order 366. But shortly before his leaving PHilMech, Dr. Falla was detailed to the Philippine-Sino Center for Agricultural Technology (PhilSCAT) as chief technology promotion officer dealing with hybrid rice and mechanization. He was with PhilSCAT throughout its Phase I operation. (30)
