I n t h i s i s s u e : ugust precipitated the launching of more
common service facilities in Central Visayas for MSMEs to access
better technology and address gaps in the value chain of industry
clusters.
On August 4 , DTI turned over to the Candabong Rural Improve-
ment Club Multi-Purpose Cooperative a Shared Servie Facility
(SSF) for the processing of Ginger-based products in Loboc,
Bohol. Also in August, DTI provided SSFs for the processing of
agri-based products to cooperatives in Sibonga and Carcar,
Cebu.
Along with the German Technical Agency Promotion for Green
Economic Development (ProGED), DTI also spearheaded a
monitoring and replanning meeting for green growth advocates
from other areas of the country. The purpose of the meeting was
to assess progress of the project to date and identify the gaps in
the implementation of outcomes of activities while addressing
new and emerging challenges.
Meanwhile, the SME Roving Academy (SMERA) project in the
four provinces of Central Visayas continues to provide entrepre-
neurs with business seminars to increase their competitiveness.

The Department of Trade and Industry
(DTI) launched the Shared Service Facility
(SSF) for Ginger Processing on August 4,
2014 in Candabong, Loboc, Bohol.
DTI turned over to Candabong Rural Improve-
ment Club Multi-Purpose Cooperative the com-
mon service facility in order to provide ginger
processors access to better technology and ad-
dress production gaps
Market demand for quality ginger products has
increased with the awareness of consumers and
standards imposed by international and local
tourists.
The ginger processing facility helps coopera-
tive members maintain the quality standard in
the production of ginger candy and ginger
tea, improved the marketability of their ginger
-based products, and ascertained that these
products comply with the requirements of
food safety standards.
The DTI’s Shared Service Facility program
granted the Candabong RIC MPC a set of pro-
duction equipment including Cooker Mixer for
cooking the Salabat, Electric Form-Fill Ma-
chine for the packing of salabat, Pillow-Pack
Machine for the packing of ginger candy, Digi-
tal Weighing Scales, and Stainless Steel Ta-
bles.
The Department of Trade and Industry has
been supportive in the development of the gin-
ger based business through business consultan-
cies and capability trainings, specifically on food
safety and Good Manufacturing Practices.
A Shared Service Facility or SSF is a project
that entails the setting up of common service
facilities to give MSMEs access to better tech-
nology and address gaps in the value chain of indus-
try clusters.

Our minds are like radio devices, they send and receive different
messages based on the frequency they are tuned to.
If you currently believe that its impossible to change your reality
then you will always be tuned to find obstacles instead of possibili-
ties.
But what if you started thinking about possibilities instead of diffi-
culties? Won't you be tuning your mind to think of possible ways to
change your reality?
Yes that's absolutely right, the first step to changing your reality is
to tune yourself to the frequency of possibilities by
believing that a change is possible.
False beliefs might prevent you from changing
reality
As soon as you will start to think of possibilities
your false beliefs will emerge to the surface such as
assuming that few failures in the past will lead to
new failures in the future. In this case you must
remind yourself that all people who succeeded in this world failed
numerous times before.
The second step in changing your reality is to spot these false
beliefs and question them until they weaken.
The past doesn't determine the future
Our brains usually assume that a certain bad mood will remain
forever just because we have been living with it for a while but
that's not true.
Who said that feeling bad today means that you will feel bad to-
morrow?
Who said that tomorrow will be like today?
Who said that nothing can be changed?
Of course nothing will change if you didn't take
actions and if you didn't start moving. If you want
to change your reality then know that you are the
only one who can change it and unless you move
now things will remain the same. (Source: http://

In two separate ceremonies, the Department of
Trade and Industry (DTI) 7 turned over on Au-
gust 18 common service facilities for the process-
ing of agri-based products to farmers’ coopera-
tives in Sibonga and Carcar in Cebu.
The Gabay sa Bagong Pag-asa (GBP) in Barangay
Napo, Carcar and the Nagkahiusang Mag-uuma sa
Balaas (Namaba) in Sito Balaas, Barangay Guim-
bangco-an in Sibonga are two of the beneficiaries of
DTI’s Shared Service Facility (SSF) Program com-
mon service machineries and equipment for the
processing of agri-based products.
DTI turned over to the farmers’ cooperatives a de-
shelling machine, chopping/grinding machine, des-
iccated dryer machine, carbonizing drums and char-
coal briquetting machine.
Namaba chairman Zosimo Olanda has expressed
appreciation and heartfelt gratitude to the DTI for
the machineries and equipment that are expected
to help increase the coop’s production capacity to
15 percent.
DTI believs that the project has the potential to
benefit neighboring towns in the south in terms of
supplying raw agricultural products that will then
be processed by SSFs in Carcar and Sibonga.
The SSF project aims to improve the quality and
productivity of microenterprises and small and
medium enterprises (MSMEs) by addressing gaps
and bottlenecks in the value chain through the
common use of processing machines and equip-
ment.

The following tips for greening your office is by no means an
exhaustive list, but a way to get started in making the work-
place more environmentally friendly.
1. Use electricity wisely.
Turn off all equipment that doesn’t need to be left on at the
end of the day. When leaving a room for more than a few
minutes, switch off the lights. Take advantage of natural
sunlight as much as possible.
2 . Reduce, reuse, recycle.
Simply put: Don’t buy stuff you don’t need. And, when you
do make a purchase, bring your own bags.
3. Use environmentally friendly office products.
Start small – 100% recycled paper, refillable ink cartridges,
non-toxic highlighters, etc.
4. Use non-toxic cleaning products.
Encourage your cleaning company to use green cleaning
products and if they won’t, switch to one of the many com-
panies that o use environmentally friendly products.
5. Make eco-friendly food choices.
When ordering lunch for an office meeting, how about going
vegetarian (or even vegan, if you dare)? Cutting down on
meat can have a huge impact on the health of the planet.
6. Telecommuting
Encourage working from home, particularly for workers who
would normally drive to work. This cuts down on pollution
and increases time availability.
7. Transportation
For those who do come to the office on a regular basis, en-
courage (and help arrange) carpooling, use of public transit,
biking, or walking.
8. Aim for a paperless office.
Though the paperless office may still seem unrealistic, at
least try to cut down on printed material when possible. Use
100% recycled content paper products in the office.
9. Institute a casual dress code.
Not having to wear suits in hot summer months can help
keep cooling costs down (and make for a happier work-
place).
10. Fair trade & organic.
Buy fair trade, organic coffee and teas for the office. If em-
ployees prefer to go out for their hot beverages, encourage
them to take their own mugs. More importantly is the reduc-
tion in waste from not having to throw out paper or Styrofoam
cups.
