PROFESSIONALISM
Those five (5) dimensions to professionalism mentioned in the DLP Manual may be defined my
qualities set to Standards.
POLITICAL NEUTRALITY
Our Government or Office Agency is under the umbrella of the Judicial Branch of
Government which judicial power is vested in the Supreme Court of the Philippines and the
lower courts established by law. Although justices are appointed by the president on the
recommendation of the Judicial and Bar Council of the Philippines, it allows them to make
decisions based on what is right under the law without facing political and personal
consequences. We, as regular court are employed under career service positions, which requisites
of a civil service system are merit system, security of tenure and political neutrality.
Even in your own place or province, you have so many things, famous people and
places to be proud about, haven’t you? Can you recall them?
Bulacan is widely known to be the land of noble heroes and historical heritage.
The historic BARASOAIN CHURCH in Malolos City is the birth place of First
Constitution of the Philippine Republic in 1898. Also the home province of heroes like
Marcelo H. Del Pilar, the Great Propagandist; Gregorio Del Pilar, the Hero of Tirad Pass;
and Francisco Baltazar (Balagtas), the Prince of Filipino Poets. Leisure and Tourist
attraction places found in Bulacan like Biak na Bato National Park located at San Miguel,
Bulacan; Divine Mercy National Shrine in Marilao, Bulacan; Meyto Shrine in Calumpit,
Bulacan; and Verdivia Falls in Doña Remedios Trinidad, Bulacan.
A NOBLE nation, where homage is paid not to who a man is or what he knows,
but to what he is and what he does .
A PROUD nation, where poverty chains no man to the plow, forces no woman
to prostitute herself and condemns no child to scrounge among garbage.
A FREE nation, where men and women and children from all regions
and with all kinds of talents may find truth and play and sing and laugh
and dance and love without fear.
A JUST nation, where whatever inequality exists is caused not by the way
people act towards each other but by differences in natural talents;
where poverty, ignorance and hunger are attacked and every farmer has a land
that no one can grab from him; every breadwinner, a job that is satisfying and
pays him enough to provide a decent standard of living; every family, a home
from which it cannot be evicted; and everyone, a steadily improving quality of
life.
An HONORABLE nation where public powers are used for the public good
and not for the private gain of some Filipinos and some foreigners; where
leaders speak not only well but truthfully and act honestly; a nation that is
itself and seeks to live in peace and brotherhood with all other nations of the
world.
Write in one paragraph your feelings or insights about the importance of democracy in a
free and just society.
Let us recall the history in the past that leaders of the revolution declared the country’s
sovereign state and proclaimed the First Republic of the Philippines, the first constitutional
democracy in Asia. A political system ruled by the people through elected representatives. The
foundations of democracy comprised of many important ideals of democracy as such, are the
political participation that ensure the engagement of citizens in the political arena, consent of the
governed, inclusiveness, equality, freedom of assembly, citizenship, the right to life and liberty.
Sovereignty is the formation and protection of sustainable freedom of equality and justice in
society.
SIMPLE LIVING
Write your insights by completing the following phrases. You can come up with as
many sentences as you can.
I feel that each and every person has their own set of goals in life and among other things is for
the betterment of their economic condition and live a comfortable life with ease access to the
modern technology such as communication, transportation, medical, electrical, and mechanical.
We strive hard just to make it happen. A sense of security and happiness that comes first to your
priorities. So much to say, it depends on the career paths you are working in. Our profession is
part of the three separate and sovereign yet interdependent branches of government which is the
judicial branch, the law interpreting body comprised of government personnel such as Justices,
Judges, Attorneys and rank and file employees. Their status should have regard to a much
respectable representation and dignified appearance in a modest way.
I realize that a modest person must not indulge himself in extravagant and ostentatious display
of wealth especially a public servant regardless of their position in government. As it mentioned
in this module, to avoid public suspicion and criticism and of indignation, especially public
officials and employees’ income does not conform to their extravagant lifestyles that might
resulted in degradation of public service.
I will commit myself in a modest way of life and demonstrate integrity, provide excellence
service to the people and be a problem-solver to a given task.

LESSON III
THE CASES
Case Study # 1 AN ISLAND STORM
If you were the official concerned, what would you do after knowing the findings of the
chemist? How would you show commitment to public interest in this case?
Given that situational case study and for the sake of argument, a government official
should be held liable for his disloyalty or betrayal of public trust in violation of the Code of
Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees. Under Section 4 of RA 6713,
he shall refrain from doing acts contrary to law, good morals, good customs, public policy,
public order, public safety and public interest. A government official is expected to be just and
sincere in the performance of his duty. He shall at all times be responsible for the welfare and
well-being of the public. Knowing the fact that the report from chemist that the waters of the
island are not safe for swimming and detrimental to health, we must not regard only for the
economic growth of your locality. We should also have a better plan for structural design and
planning adequate sewer system in your locality and promote clean and green program.
