QUIZ 1&2

1. What is an international organization?

- An international organization has members from more than one country.
Some international organizations, such as corporations, are quite huge.
Others are modest and focused on a single goal, such as species
conservation. Organizations, such as the United Nations, the World Health
Organization, and NATO, can be founded by treaty or as an instrument
governed by international law and with its own legal personality.
International organizations are typically made up of member nations, but
they may also include other entities such as other international
organizations, businesses, and nongovernmental groups.

2. What are the roles/duties and responsibilities of an international organization?

- International organizations perform a wide range of diverse tasks, such as
data collection and trend monitoring (e.g., the World Meteorological
Organization), service and aid delivery (e.g., the World Health
Organization), and providing forums for negotiation (e.g., the European
Union) and dispute resolution (e.g., the World Trade Organization).
International organizations can promote cooperative behavior by offering
political mechanisms through which governments might cooperate to
achieve shared goals. IGOs are beneficial for individual governments as
well, who frequently employ them as tools of foreign policy to defend their
acts and control the behavior of other states.

MIDTERM EXAM

i. Although globalization is an overwhelming concept as experienced by people in number

of ways in real terms. Globalization of technology improved modern transportation and
communication. As a result, people become more mobile and able to reach different places
around the globe. There are various reasons why people leave their country of origin. By this
activity, you will be able to gain first-hand knowledge of the experiences of OFW, who obviously
leave their own country. Their stories could provide a concrete understanding of how
globalization affects themselves, their families and our countries.

1. Find a former or a current OFW to be interviewed. Your respondent's name should not be
revealed to protect the person's identity and ensure anonymity.

2. Use the following guide questions (you may add additional questions)

a. How long have you stayed abroad?

- 5 years
b. What are your reasons why you decided to leave the country?
- “Mababa ang bigay ng sahod sa Pilipinas, hindi tulad sa ibang bansa na sulit ang pawis
mo.”
c. What were your most unforgettable experiences as an OFW?
- “Yung mga unang araw ko sa ibang bansa, nahohome sick ako at namimiss ko ang
mga taong mahahalaga saakin kung saan halos gabi gabi akong umiiyak.”
d. How will you compare the Philippines from the other countries you work with?
- “ Siguro sa Pilipinas yung mga katrabaho mo ay mababait sayo, sa ibang bansa hindi
sila ganon ka friendly lalo na kung asian ka.”
e. Do you still want to go back? Why or why not?
- “If pagbibigyan pako ng pagkakataon, babalik ako sa ibang bansa sapatkat duon alam
ko matutupad ko ang pangarap ng mga anak ko.”
3. Write the results of your interview and your personal insights about your respondent's
experience.
- As a youth living in this country, I'm in favor of respondents' answers because its true
that the income here in the Philippines is minimum wage only like 10,000 to 15,000
thousand a month. The daily needs of people get higher everyday, the electricity bills are
half of your income. What more if you have children, mostly when they will go to college
not every child has an average IQ to get a scholarship. Even Though, there is free
college, how about their daily allowance and some school needs? I know that one of the
most reasons why people want to work from other countries is for them to fulfill
someone's dream.
