IN THE LATER PART OF 2019 WUHAN CHINA WOKE UP TO A NIGHTMARE WHICH THEY LATER CALLED COVID-19. IT WAS A VIRUS WHOSE SYMPTOMS WERE SO SEVERE THAT MANY DIED AND MORE WERE INFECTED. WHAT MADE THIS VIRUS MORE DANGEROUS WAS THE FACT THAT ITS INCUBATION PERIOD IN THE HUMAN BODY WAS FROM 5 TO MORE THAN 14 DAYS WHEREIN THE PERSON MAY BE ASYMPTOMATIC AND YET CAN INFECT A HEALTHY HUMAN BEING. THEN IN JANUARY OF 2020 THIS VIRUS WAS ALREADY INFECTING PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD INCLUDING THE PHILIPPINES. IN MARCH 17, 2020 PRESIDENT RODRIGO ROA DUTERTE DECLARED A LOCKDOWN IN LUZON WHEN WE STARTED EXPERIENCING MANY INFECTED CITIZENS AND MANY DEATHS DUE TO COVID-19. HIS DECISION WAS TIMELY AND WAS A DIFFICULT DECISION TO MAKE BUT WAS NECESSARY TO SAVE HIS PEOPLE. SCHOOLS CLOSED AND MILLIONS OF STUDENTS WERE FORCED TO STAY HOME THEIR CLASSES SUSPENDED INDEFINITELY.

  THE CEO OF PLT COLLEGE, INC. EVEN BEFORE THIS COVID-19 PANDEMIC INFECTED THE WORLD CAUSING GLOBAL RECESSION AND MAKING MILLIONS OF PEOPLE JOBLESS, The CEO and Founder of PLT COLLEGE, INC., ALREADY STARTED PLANNING A BORDERLESS SCHOOL WHEREIN ALL THE COMPONENTS OF A SCHOOL CAN BE ACCESSED IN A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT. HE SAW THE EFFECTS OF TYPHOON YOLANDA WHERE SCHOOL BUILDINGS WERE DESTROYED AND THE EARTHQUAKE OF 1990 WHERE STUDENTS WERE TRAPPED IN SCHOOL BUILDINGS THAT COLLAPSED. THE ERUPTION OF PINATUBO AND THE RECENT ERUPTION OF TAAL VOLCANO AND THE FORECAST OF SCIENTISTS THAT NATURAL CALAMITIES WILL BECOME STRONGER AND DEADLIER WITH THE COMING YEARS WERE ALL THE REASONS WHY THE NEED TO DESIGN A BORDERLESS SCHOOL WAS URGENTLY NEEDED BY OUR COUNTRY.
