But Telecom market is bombing in short time with two foreign telecom industries called Telenor and Ooredoo. Nowadays, Telenor lead the telecom market over two companies; MPT and Ooredoo by providing its products and good service in reasonable price according to the answer of research. In this study of Telecom market prospect in Myanmar has four strategies like as marketing strategy, customer’s satisfaction, quality service and quality service.

Most of telecom customers are prefers to use Telenor products with 37.8 percent in accordance with this result of Pearson Method. MPT's marketing strategies like as product, price, place and promotion and Telenor's marketing strategies such as product, price, place and promotion, MPT's customer's satisfaction with innovation tech support, customer's service, data security and user friendliness and Telenor's customer's satisfaction with innovation tech support, customer's service, data security and user friendliness, MPT's customer's satisfaction with innovation tech support, customer's service, data security and user friendliness and Ooredoo's customer satisfaction supporting the right service, user friendliness and promotion data, MPT's quality service in which good service internet, safety information and responsibility in its quality services and Ooredoo's quality service providing its reliability, comfort, service and safety, MPT is providing its quality product such as serviceability, performance and durability with reasonable price and Ooredoo's quality product with reasonable marketing strategies like as serviceability and performance have relationship but the rest of other have no relationship. As my opinion of this study about telecom market in Myanmar, they should persuade showing their standard products, excellent service in reasonable price, providing their basic infrastructure around nation. On the other hand, promotion times can be attractive for loyalty customers for these telecom firms.

Abstract: The incessant migration of rural populace to urban areas has imposed a serious concern globally, especially in developing countries like Nigeria, due to its accompanying food security threat. Therefore, there is a need to map and evaluate Urban Agricultural land use in relation to food security challenges periodically in order to aid well-informed policy statements in tackling food security. This paper evaluates Urban Agricultural land use and food security in Jos North, Nigeria, between 1986 and 2005, with a view of analyzing the effects of urbanization on the sustainability of Urban Agriculture. Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing techniques were used in the mapping and evaluation processes in conjunction with remotely sensed data and topographic maps. Data validation was carried out using ground truthing data. Markov Chain Analysis prediction model and Cellular Automata were used for change detection analysis and to project the status of Urban Agriculture in 2020. The result shows Urban Agricultural land has reduced from 19.2% of the total area to 11.26% between 1986 and 2005. The projection shows rural-urban migration will increase more by 2020, with agricultural land reducing to 8.59% of the total area of study. Furthermore, the paper reveals Urban Agricultural practices in Jos North especially Fadama which contributes significantly to the socio-economic growth of the city through the production of vegetables and other food crops. The research work suggests some measures to enhance Urban Agriculture. Keywords: Urban Agriculture, GIS, Remote Sensing, Urban Agricultural Land and Food Security.

Abstract: Today, the concept of morality still holds true to almost every individual human person. A person seeks the presence of a Supreme Deity to govern him and for him to adore. People who have connections to Leyte Normal University, perceived to be a pillar of truth and goodness, expect to hear good things from it and about it and only the good mainly because the university caters to students as primary clientele. This paper determined the level of morality of the faculty members, extent of their morality and how they view these concepts in their lives. The respondents are male and female belonging to different age brackets. Most of the respondents are Roman Catholics which means that Catholicism is still the religion in the Philippines that has the most number of believers. The result reveals that the power of media, side by side with one’s educational attainment can be influential to a person’s morality. Despite the varying views among the respondents, it was found out that there is a significant relationship among the two variables specifically on factors such as family, social spectrum and the perceived moral effects of the chosen media.
