    1. Why does planning need to be rational and comprehensive?

    Planning by all means are important as it serves as the backbone of your goals that you
    want to achieve and it allows you to use more efficient of time and other resources. It
    should be rational and at the same time comprehensive to verify, define, and detail the
    problem in order to come up with common goals and objectives. In this way, you will
    have to follow a framework of how public policy decisions are taken based on a scientific
    or rational approach in problem solving. In the video uploaded by MeanThat (2014),
    there are 9-step structured approaches that involves identifying and comparing all
    possible options or approaches to solving the problem under study. The first one is
    Terms of Reference/Brief, second is Environmental Appraisal, third is Mission/Goals,
    fourth is Consult with stakeholders, fifth is Develop Options, sixth is Evaluate Options
    and Decide Strategies, seventh is Implement-Manage, eight is Monitor/Evaluate, and the
    last one is Feedback.

    2. What is the role of research in planning?

    Doing research is important in all fields of study to support the right kind of analysis
    most especially in planning purposes. It’s primary role in planning is to gather
    information to describe and understand a situation, check assumptions about groups of
    people and perceptions to determine the public relations consequences and define what
    the problem is to draw valid and trustworthy conclusions of your study.

    3. What are the issues associated with a lack of information?

    Having less knowledge and information on what you are planning to do is just like not
    having a plan at all. This problem may result to some issues that will greatly affect the
    planning process on what you are intend to do especially when you are conducting a
    research. In having a research, you should be informative enough to know the study you
    are in to or else, it will result to failure. Based on personal experiences, as much as
    possible you need to explore beyond the topic and study other related studies to come up
    a comprehensive research and results.

    4. What will be the use of my study for planning purposes?

    This study will be surely useful in my planning purposes as the Zoning Officer in our
    LGU. Being a zoning officer, strategic planning is essential since I will be dealing a lot of
    inspection of premises and properties making it sure that it is conforming to the zoning
    ordinance of the city. Being also a zoning officers, I must be knowledgeable and good in
    planning and all its applicable laws and regulations to ensure that the city's plans and
    projects are in line with the land uses of the city and that there are no probable issues with
    land use planning.
