HEPA B: LET’S BREAK IT DOWN! Hindi lahat ng sakit ay may agarang sintomas, ngunit maaaring magdulot ng malalim at pangmatagalang epekto sa buhay kapag napabayaan. Sa isinagawang Hepatitis B Orientation/Seminar na sinabayan ng libreng Hepatitis Screening, binigyang-diin ang kahalagahan ng sapat na kaalaman, maagap na pagsusuri, at responsableng pangangalaga sa kalusugan. Tinalakay sa seminar ang likas na panganib ng Hepatitis B—isang sakit na maaaring manatiling tahimik sa katawan ngunit maaaring humantong sa seryosong komplikasyon kapag hindi agad natukoy at naagapan. Ang aktibidad ay matagumpay na pinangunahan nina Occupational Health Nurse Reean Mary Manlugon at Safety Officer 3 Hilario Tabangin, na nagbahagi ng mahahalagang impormasyon hinggil sa wastong pag-iwas, tamang paraan ng proteksyon, at ang mahalagang papel ng bawat kawani sa pagpapanatili ng isang ligtas at malusog na lugar ng trabaho.
Sa pamamagitan ng isinagawang libreng screening, nabigyan ng pagkakataon ang mga kawani na mas makilala ang kanilang kalagayan sa kalusugan—isang mahalagang hakbang tungo sa mas ligtas na kinabukasan para sa kanilang sarili, pamilya, at komunidad. Bilang karagdagang bahagi ng programa, isinagawa rin ang isang Trivia Question and Answer pagkatapos ng talakayan upang masukat ang antas ng pag-unawa ng mga kawani sa mga paksang tinalakay sa seminar. Naging aktibo at makabuluhan ang partisipasyon ng mga kalahok, na nagpatunay sa kahalagahan ng patuloy na edukasyon sa kalusugan.
Sa kabuuan, inaasahang mas magiging handa, mulat, at responsable ang mga kawani sa wastong paglalapat ng kanilang mga natutunan—hindi lamang sa lugar ng trabaho kundi pati na rin sa kanilang pang-araw-araw na pamumuhay. ⚡ Kalusugan ay kaalaman. Kaalaman ay proteksyon. ⚡ |

Sa pangunguna ng kapatid na kooperatiba, ang QUEZELCO I Training and Assessment Center, matagumpay na naisagawa ang Basic Lineman Training Course (BLTC) 2025, isang komprehensibong pagsasanay na tumagal ng 45 araw. Layunin nitong ihanda ang mga kalahok sa mga teknikal, pisikal, at mental na hamon ng pagiging lineman—isang trabahong may malaking ambag sa pagpapanatili ng ligtas at tuloy-tuloy na kuryente sa mga komunidad.
Ngayong taon, 47 trainees ang matagumpay na nagtapos ng programa, patunay ng kanilang dedikasyon, tiyaga, at di-matitinag na hangaring maglingkod. Ang kanilang paglalakbay ay binuo ng mahigpit na praktikal na pagsasanay, mga lecture, field exercises, safety drills, at pagsasanay sa wastong paggamit ng kagamitan sa linya. Bawat araw ay isang hakbang tungo sa pagiging mas bihasa, mas disiplinado, at mas handang harapin ang totoong hamon sa field.
Ang QUEZELCO I bilang training at assessment center ay nagkaroon ng malaking bahagi sa paghubog ng mga bagong lineman. Sa kanilang mahusay na trainers, kumpletong pasilidad, at mataas na pamantayan sa edukasyon at kaligtasan, naging posible ang paglikha ng isang grupo ng mga trainee na tunay na maaasahan sa larangan ng power distribution.
Ang pagtatapos na ito ay hindi lamang pagtatapos ng pagsasanay—ito ay pasimula ng mas malaki at mas makabuluhang tungkulin: ang maging tagapaghatid ng liwanag sa mga tahanan, paaralan, negosyo, at buong komunidad. Ang 47 nagtapos ng BLTC 2025 ay simbolo ng pag-asa, paglilingkod, at patuloy na pag-unlad ng sektor ng elektripikasyon.
Sa ngalan ng pamunuan, lubos na ipinagmamalaki ang mga bagong “sundalo ng pailaw”—mga kabataang handang isulong ang misyon ng enerhiya at serbisyo sa bawat sulok ng Quezon at karatig na lugar. Ang kanilang tagumpay ay tagumpay ng kooperatiba, pamilya, at ng buong komunidad. Mabuhay ang BLTC 2025 Graduates! |

In a united show of support and advocacy, the officers, employees, and Member-Consumer-Owners (MCOs) of QUEZELCO II proudly participated in the Kick-Off Ceremony of National Cooperative Month and Mental Health Awareness Month, organized by PHILRECA.

Oktubre 1, 2025 - nagtungo ang QUEZELCO II WARRIORS OF LIGHT sa MASBATE— Sa gitna ng matinding pagsubok na dulot ng bagyong Opong, isang sinag ng pag-asa ang muling sumilay sa lalawigan ng Masbate sa tulong ng TaskForce Kapatid — isang inisyatibo ng mga electric cooperatives sa buong bansa para sa mabilisang power restoration sa mga lugar na tinamaan ng kalamidad. Pinangunahan ng QUEZELCO II Warriors of Light kasama pa ng ibang Warriors of light mula sa Region 4a, ang unang araw ng power restoration sa sakop ng Masbate Electric Cooperative (MASELCO). Buo ang kanilang paninindigan at dedikasyon sa kanilang misyon: hindi lamang upang muling maghatid ng kuryente, kundi upang ibalik ang liwanag, pag-asa, at sigla sa bawat tahanan at komunidad. Sa bawat hakbang ng mga linemen ng QUEZELCO II, dala nila ang pangakong muling bubuhayin ang mga kabahayan, muling paiilawan ang mga eskinita, at muling magbubukas ng oportunidad para sa mga pamilyang ilang araw nang nagdurusa sa kawalan ng elektrisidad. Hindi alintana ang pagod, init, o pag-ulan, buong tapang na hinarap ng mga “Warriors of Light” ang hamon ng power restoration — bitbit ang dalang mga kagamitan, kaalaman, at higit sa lahat, malasakit sa kapwa Pilipino. Sa kanilang mga kamay, muling nabuhay ang mga poste, linya, at transformer; at sa kanilang presensya, muling nabuhay ang tiwala ng mamamayan sa bayanihan at pagkakaisa. Ang TaskForce Kapatid ay konkretong halimbawa ng “One EC-MCO Movement” — isang pagkilos ng mga electric cooperatives sa ilalim ng National Electrification Administration (NEA) na nagpapakita ng tunay na diwa ng bayanihan sa sektor ng elektrisidad. Sa tuwing may kooperatibang nangangailangan, ang iba pang kooperatiba ay agad na rumeresponde — sa porma ng technical assistance, manpower, at logistical support. Sa pagkakataong ito, si MASELCO ang nangangailangan, at agad na tumugon ang QUEZELCO II. Lubos ang pasasalamat ng QUEZELCO II sa mga mamamayan ng Masbate para sa kanilang mainit na pagtanggap, pag-unawa, at pakikiisa sa mga gawain ng restoration team. Sa bawat ngiti ng mga bata, sa bawat “salamat po” ng mga residente, at sa bawat muling pag-ilaw ng mga poste — nararamdaman ng mga linemen ang kahalagahan ng kanilang serbisyo. “Hindi lang kuryente ang ibinabalik ng ating mga Warriors of light. Liwanag ito ng pag-asa, lakas ng loob, at tiwala sa kinabukasan”. Ang QUEZELCO II Warriors of Light ay nananatiling handa at matatag sa kanilang panata — maglingkod, maghatid ng liwanag, at magsilbing pag-asa saan mang panig ng bansa. |

When we say forests, we always associate it with tranquility—the feeling of achieving peace and quiet. It is feeling the mysteries of the earth unfolding beneath your feet. Forests are home to diverse species of plants and animals, providing a rich and interconnected ecosystem that supports countless forms of life.
As such, the National Government then launched the National Greening Program (NGP)—a National Convergence Initiative among three national government agencies, namely: the Department of Agriculture (DA), the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR), and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), with the latter as the lead agency. NGP is a reforestation program that seeks to bring back the vegetative cover of the country’s upland areas. It is also designed in such a manner as to achieve more—beyond reforestation—to wit: poverty reduction, food security, environmental stability, biodiversity conservation, and climate change mitigation and adaptation. This National Government Program is being carried out by local government units, civil society, and private sectors, including organizations like The Rotary Club of Infanta. And on October 17, 2023, QUEZELCO II led by General Manager Engr. Von Erwin Azagra and the Rotary Club of Infanta led by President Ricardo Macasaet signed the Memorandum of Understanding for the said project entitled FoRestoration: Tree Nurturing Project 2.0. The activity was then carried out on October 22, 2023, when various institutions from different sectors joined forces to contribute their share to this remarkable endeavor
It is such a memorable experience for each QUEZELCO II employee who came and contributed to help bring change to the world. Small acts of caring for our environment go a long way in preserving the natural world. Our Earth deserves not just our admiration but our unwavering protection. It is our duty as stewards to safeguard its beauty and biodiversity, ensuring a sustainable and thriving planet for generations to come.
We are grateful for this opportunity handed to us to be a part of the change. We recognize that it is only through unity and cooperation that we can combat the challenges posed by deforestation and climate change. It was clear that the FoRestoration: Tree Nurturing Project was not just a tree-planting initiative; it was a narrative of hope, unity, and the power of collective action. Together, we can make a lasting impact! |
