WHAT IS TIME CONSCIOUSNESS AND HONESTY?

 WE ADVOCATE TIME CONSCIOUSNESS AND HONESTY

RUNS THROUGHOUT THE MONTH OF JUNE EVERY
YEAR. 
 IT IS A CAUSE AND ADVOCACY THAT PROMOTES TIME,
TALENT, AND RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AS WELL AS
HONESTY IN ALL DEALINGS, MEETING

 PROJECT W.A.T.CH

Why is Time Consciousness important?

IN ITS NUANCED ATTEMPTS TO PROVIDE AN ACCOUNT OF THE
FORM OF INTENTIONALITY PRESUPPOSED BY ALL EXPERIENCE,
THE PHENOMENOLOGY OF TIME-CONSCIOUSNESS PROVIDES
IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO PHILOSOPHICAL ISSUES SUCH AS
PERCEPTION, MEMORY, EXPECTATION, IMAGINATION,
HABITUATION, SELF-AWARENESS, AND SELF-IDENTITY OVER
TIME.
 PROJECT W.A.T.CH
GOAL:

TO ADOPT, RESPOND, AND EXPAND THE RECOGNITION OF

PUNCTUALITY AND HONESTY AS TWO CORE VALUES IN
PROMOTING, PRACTICING AND SUSTAINING THE
IMPLEMENTATION OF  THE PROJECT FOR HOLISTIC
DEVELOPMENT OF FILIPINOS.  
A.R.E.
 PROJECT W.A.T.CH
RATIONALE:
THE ADVOCACY FOR TIME CONSCIOUSNESS AND HONESTY IS A SIGNIFICANT CAMPAIGN FOR THE CORE DEVELOPMENT OF
INDIVIDUALS. IF EVERYONE IS PUNCTUAL AND HONEST THERE WILL BE A CONCOMITANT VALUING FOR SELF-RESPECT AND FOR
RESPECTING OTHER TIME. THESE VALUES CANNOT BE TAUGHT BUT THEY CAN BE CAUGHT BY SIMPLY MODELING THE
PRACTICE AND MAKING IT HABIT. THE 1987 PHILIPPINE CONSTITUTION PROMOTES THE FILIPINO VALUES OF TRUTH, JUSTICE,
FREEDOM, LOVE, EQUALITY, AND PEACE, PROMOTION OF THE COMMON GOOD AND BUILDING A JUST AND HUMANE SOCIETY. IT
ALSO MANDATES THE STATE TO MAINTAIN HONESTY AND INTEGRITY IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE. THE PRESIDENTIAL
PROCLAMATION NO. 1782 ESPOUSES THE NEED FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF VALUES FORMATION IN BUILDING WHOLESOME
PERSONALITY AND CHARACTER AMONG FILIPINOS, ESPECIALLY THE YOUNG: DEVELOPMENT EXPERTS AND VALUE EDUCATION
ARE IN AGREEMENT THAT THE PRACTICE OF HONESTY AND PUNCTUALITY WILL SIGNIFICANTLY CONTRIBUTE TO THE
ATTAINMENT OF NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT GOALS. HENCE, THE GOVERNMENT IS CURRENTLY PURSUING A MORAL RENEWAL
PROGRAM PREMISED ON ZERO TOLERANCE FOR CORRUPTION AND PROMPT DELIVERY OF BASIC SERVICES.
