The SK chairman and the councils are elected by the members of the Katipunan ng Kabataan (Youth Assembly) in elections conducted by the COMELEC. The elected SK chairman will hold the Youth and Sports Committee of the barangay as the 8th council. The SK is part of the Katipunan ng Kabataan with members have the ages of 15 to 21 years old. SENIOR CITIZENS GROUP They are the old folks in the community that have reached the age of 60. They are worthy of respects and one is the giving of their due discounts on products and services as specified in the Republic Act 9257. Strongly we recommend them to apply for the Seniors Citizens Cards. It is the association of the two great pillars in furthering the development of children through educational experiences. Philippine Youth Association is envisioned as a community of future leaders and law abiding citizens, and that is what we already hope for them. It is the Quirino Hill Jeepney Operators and Drivers Association to carry people from Quirino Hill to Plaza and vice-versa. They really carry an important task by transporting people to their homes, workplaces, schools, etc, with care and in safe manner. We should thank them once in a while even though we pay our fares. The Quirino Hill Community Water System is an organization based in Quirino Hill, which is composed of elected volunteer officials, directors, employees and members residing in Quirino Hill to manage and utilize the community’s water resource through a system owned by the community itself in order to supply the members with serviceable water with humane and less dues collected from the members just to keep the system working. BUSINESS SECTOR There are some commercial activities within the community that people can participate to get products and/or services in just a walking distance. It is the group of regular workers/employees with salaries to compensate their services to their respective companies/employers and clients. The group of servicing-people that practice their own skills or professions to serve other people. WAGE EARNERS It is a group of workers that practice their skills for wages. They can be hired to work through contracts or through a daily payment basis. This group is one of the primary concerns because it is undoubtedly has a tremendous effect on the general development of s community. If these students were rightly molded, the development of a community they belong would be accelerated and directed to its due course. Concerned people often say: ‘They’re the next in line to fill our shoes.’ RELIGIOUS GROUPS It is group of monastic people, church goers, evangelists, pastors, religious ministries, believers and others that is very essential parameter in the community because it shares to others some high grounding preaches, positive moral counsels and boosting spiritual foods. STILL WAITING It is a group that is inactive for the meantime but would just quickly grab the time/opportunities when they come. A group that seeks until they found what they are seeking may these be work, Holy Grail, destiny or whatever. The most daring group and must also be the most naïve. They keep on working and working or going on and on until they found their dreams or until their dreams come true. CYBER-WARRIORS A group of warriors who just sit in front of computers and get online then do their fighting against the cyber mmorpg beasts or against other online cyber-warriors represented by mmorpg characters. If the tambays settle in one particular place, this group is a nomad or mobile. When they are out, they just roam around the place most of the times but not always really. After the hard day’s work, we find our way to the liquor store and find a place to take some drinks to wash the dust out from our throats. Some may go home early and some may not, but we just thank God if we wake up early in the next morning to find again our way to the hard day’s work. A more general group with members that are working or not, $$$ or not, drinkers or not, students or not, elders, youngsters, etc. that hangs around the corners for catharsis or etc., and with or without drinks they tease each other, have fun, tell stories and talk about almost everything. They also extend helping hands in the neighborhood and/or in the whole community, themselves help each other also, and sometimes they offer what they can only share for the betterment of the place they live in. |
