How functional and secure AES is? The Philippine electorate will once again go to polls and decide who will lead the nation in the next six years of their lives. This important event which will elect new president, vice president and 12 senators for national posts, and seats are also being contested for provincial, city and municipal levels, is expected to be counted unofficially in 24 hours, concluded or canvassed officially in a few days or so but authorities and observers expected it to be done in less than a week.

From time immemorial to pre-digital regulations businesspeople and their employees have been attending to a lot of business-related policies and requirements imposed either by government where they have operational presence, commitment to acceptable practices and their own industry which includes
- human resources,
- labor,
- customers,
- food,
- nutrition,
- medicine,
- insurance,

Business and technical decision makers have to work together. Technology cannot be an excuse to many for not being able to deliver production and customers' expectations. It cannot be that problems are perpetrated, created time and again and even resolutions are impulsive and inconclusive while technology itself is regularly and continuously gets to be improved.
