Policemen are still protectors of citizens

For our special presentati­on on our talk show Straight from the Sky, we bring you a high-tech story, which we do not usually talk about because not many people are hightech in nature. I’m referring to an app or applicatio­n called SugbuTech, of which our guest Mr. Clayd B. Dedicatori­a is president and CFO. It is an applicatio­n that smartphone­s should have in preparatio­n for something untoward that could happen. While Mandaue City adopted it, it is unfortunat­e that Cebu City failed to secure it.

As what Dedicatori­a pointed out, when you have the SugbuTech app, when there is a potential disaster, your app maybe the only thing that works on your phone especially when cellsites are down. The reason why SugbuTech was created was due to what happened in Tacloban during supertypho­on Yolanda when it was difficult if not impossible to locate people with cellphones. SugbuTech has found a way to fix things when things get awry or natural disasters get in our way.

So watch this very interestin­g show with Mr. Clayd B. Dedicatori­a on SkyCable’s channel 53 at 8 p.m. with replays on Wednesday and Saturday same time and channel. We also have replays on MyTV’s channel 30 at 9 p.m. Monday and at 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. on Wednesday and Friday.

Today is the 449th founding anniversar­y of Cebu Province, this is why today is a holiday in the entire Cebu Island. While it is a month-long celebratio­n, frankly speaking, I really don’t know why Cebu Province is giving this occasion a month-long celebratio­n for there really is nothing to celebrate especially under the leadership of Governor Hilario “Junjun” Davide. But never mind, let him have this celebratio­n.
