Israel’s newest contribution to education in the Philippines has been realized as it unveiled its newest learning center in the City of Manila with the presence of Department of Education (DepEd) Secretary Juan Edgardo “Sonny” M. Angara, according to a news report by BusinessWorld.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of BusinessWorld. Some parts in boldface.
THE Embassy of Israel in the Philippines on Wednesday unveiled its first learning resource center in Manila addressing digital literacy in public schools.
In a briefing after the inauguration of the Learning Resource Center in Jacinto Zamora Elementary School in Pandacan, Manila, Israeli Ambassador Dana Kursh said Tel Aviv is looking forward to lending its technological advantages on education and cybersecurity in the Philippines.
“We have the best cutting-edge technologies when it comes to education and to cybersecurity. So I think that this is a partnership that we are doing together and we are touching the younger generation,” Ms. Kursh told reporters.
Education Secretary Juan Edgardo “Sonny” M. Angara told reporters that the government and Israel have yet to discuss further education cooperation but expressed openness to more partnerships.
“In the field of technology, innovation, digital technology, we have a lot to learn from Israel,” Mr. Angara said, also noting that the country now has agricultural scholars in Israel. “We might discuss the [proposed partnerships] with Israel because most of them are usually between the Department of Education and Commission on Higher Education.”
The embassy on June 3 unveiled the Israel-funded digital literacy center, which provided computer desktops, educational materials, and coding software, in celebration of Israel’s 78th Independence Day.
To all my readers, I encourage you to pray to the Lord for further collaboration between Israel and the Philippines so that the quality of education and cybersecurity in the country will improve. Within Southeast Asia, the Philippines is having difficulty competing with its neighbors on economics, tourism, education, cybersecurity and other important matters. Filipinos today might not realize it yet but it is clear that having Israel as a partner is essential.
At the same time, I encourage you all to realize the truth that Israel is the land God designated specifically for the Jewish people (read Genesis 35:10-12) and His command must be followed without hesitation. If you want to be blessed further by the Lord, do so by loving and blessing the Jewish people (Genesis 12:1-3). I did my part when I was in Israel. Also, let me remind you all that the ties between the Jews and Christians are truly biblical!
I encourage you all to pray to the Lord God in support of Israel, to love and bless the Jewish people, and pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
If you truly believe in Lord Jesus, the Holy Spirit and God the Heavenly Father wholeheartedly and you continue to be faithful, you should be aware that Christians are meant to stand united with Israel and love the Jewish people no matter what. You can do your part supporting Israel by donating to Christians United for Israel (CUFI). Do not forget to read the Holy Bible, then pray in tongues to the Lord in the privacy of your room with the door shut.
Always be the fearless and aggressive church of Lord Jesus!
