To encourage internet safety, Google and Ben&Ben have released a music video titled Mag-ingat

Google has released a new song in collaboration with the Filipino folk pop band Ben&Ben to promote internet safety and digital responsibility. The song, named “Mag-Ingat” (Be Safe Online), is part of Google’s commitment to assisting Filipinos in safely and responsibly using the internet.

The two-and-a-half-minute Filipino song discusses current internet concerns such as scams, misinformation, and catfishing, as well as the necessity of critical thinking and checking information through reliable sources to safeguard oneself and others. It also serves as a reminder to internet users to be aware of unscrupulous actors who lurk in cyberspace, just as they do in the real world. Many of us are facing this concern since we’re into social media and other platforms right now that we’re quarantined due to the pandemic. I also relate to this social media fraud and misinformation because I already experienced these things and it’s really not easy and it greatly affects me. And I really like the song because it conveys a great message to all the people out there.

Taken during the zoom meeting

This newest single from the young band ends strongly with a bridge conveying that online safety is a shared responsibility–people are all stewards of the digital world. It’s all in the hands of netizens to use the internet right and care for the online safety of one another.

The catchy and lively tune was written and performed by Ben&Ben, the Philippines’ #1 local artist of 2021. The award-winning nine-piece act is known for mixing Filipino folk music with pop to create songs about hope, love, and positivity.

“Filipinos are highly social people and most of us interact with one another digitally. In such a world, it’s no wonder that while the internet brings so many advantages, it also opens us up to many dangers if we are not careful enough. With ‘Mag-ingat,’ we wanted to use our music to spread awareness on such a timely and important issue–because all of us are responsible for making sure that the internet is a safe and positive space for everyone,” said Miguel Benjamin of Ben&Ben.

“Internet safety is so important to Google. Beyond tools, products, and policies that enable us to help people stay safe online, we deepen our local partnerships to promote digital responsibility. By partnering with Ben&Ben and through their music, we believe that we can teach internet safety to more people in a way that deeply resonates with and becomes part of their everyday lives,” said Mervin Wenke, Head of Communications and Public Affairs, Google Philippines. 

Google’s comprehensive approach to digital responsibility is assisting millions of people in staying safe online. It also developed initiatives like Be Internet Awesome with the Department of Education and sponsored NGO efforts like the Cyberpeace project of the Teach Peace Build Peace Movement, in addition to security precautions like the two-step verification process and security and password  inspections.

“We thank Google for being a steadfast partner in promoting and upholding the digital safety of Filipinos, and Ben&Ben for creating an anthem that will remind every Filipino who listens to it to ‘mag-ingat’ and take steps into becoming responsible netizens,” said Atty. John Henry Naga, National Privacy Commissioner. 

On Ben&Ben’s official YouTube channel, the “Mag-ingat” music video is already available. “Mag-ingat” can also be found on all digital music platforms throughout the world.

Agap Agad with Bactidol helps quickly relieve a sore throat

It’s more vital than ever to stay well these days, especially while we continue to deal with the new normal’s concerns. Taking care of oneself normally entails eating a well-balanced diet and exercising regularly, but it should also include acting quickly when common problems arise. Since the beginning of the year, there has been an increase in the number of cases of sore throat, which should not be taken for granted because sore throat can escalate from mild to severe without effective treatment.

Sore throat is one of those illnesses that can strike when people least expect it, and is mostly the result of a viral infection such as the common cold or flu. It may also be an indication of a bacterial infection like strep throat or tonsillitis. Depending on the root, a sore throat can cause a scratchy feeling in the throat, pain that worsens when talking or swallowing, and hoarseness of voice.1 A red flag is that sore throat can also lead to complications such as kidney inflammation, rheumatic fever, and meningitis if left untreated.2

The good news is there are surefire ways to eliminate a sore throat at the onset. One of the most effective methods is to gargle with a medicated mouthwash such as Hexetidine Bactidol®, which has been proven to work in as fast as 30 seconds and protects for up to 12 hours against sore throat-causing viruses.

“Bactidol® Gargle’s effectiveness against sore throat has made it the number one sore throat gargle brand in the country,” said Chili Perez, senior brand manager for Bactidol® Philippines. “Using it at the first sign of sore throat will help provide immediate relief and protection against sore throat-causing viruses.”

Bactidol® Lozenges are comfortable to take, easy to carry around, and effective in killing sore throat-causing infections for folks who live on the go.

“With Bactidol® Gargle and Lozenges, it’s easy to keep sore throat at bay and help prevent it from getting worse,” added Perez. “Sa unang kati pa lang, agap agad with Bactidol®.”

Bactidol® Gargle and Lozenges will stop a sore throat in its tracks. It is available in renowned drugstores and through the Johnson & Johnson e-Pharmacy on Lazada and Shopee.
