Field
Trip Overview:
Minor Field trip is part of our subject FTS or Fieldtrip
and Seminars. We were very happy because we had the opportunity to visit PSCC
or Public Safety Command Center in Davao City. PSCC is a government institution
in Davao City that gives information to monitor the accidents and floods in
Davao. A camera is installed in the different traffic lights in the city. PSCC gives us warm welcome and showed us their
technologies.
Davao City is considered as the nerve center of the
Southern Philippines in the Mindanao Region. Mayor Sara Duterte together with
her constituents aims to have a smarter city. That’s why she was able to
collaborate with IBM to contribute to the City’s vision to be a premier
socio-economic tourism in Mindanao. Also, to and enhance the management of Davao’s four pillars of public
safety: crime prevention and suppression; emergency response; threat prevention
and response; and traffic management.
Activity
What I learned?
` I learned that in Davao City there
are many cameras installed in every intersection in Davao City. From that, I am
now aware of j-walking and I should follow the rules and regulation of Davao
City to have a smarter City.
What I like?
I like it that Davao City improved
in terms of security because as we all know Davao City is prone to bomb
threats. I like their technologies because compared to MMDA, PSCC is very
different because of their high-tech technologies.
What I didn’t like?
I didn’t like the videos that
they’ve showed us. It’s about the accidents happened in the city.
Recommendations
I recommend that the next batch will have their minor
fieldtrip in PSSCC because it was very informative and you can really learn new
things. I also suggest that they will have an interpersonal skill like ours
because we know each other and even if they will assign us to other groups we
are still comfortable.
