  • 20 Century Ends
    New Year‟s Celebration 2013 20th CENTURY ENDS ANKIND yesterday stood on the threshold of a new millennium, linked by satellite technology for the most closely watched midnight in history. M The millennium watch was kept all over the world, from a sprinkle of South Pacific islands to the skyscrapers of the Americas, across the pyramids, the Parthenon and the temples of Angkor Wat. Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle said Filipinos should greet 2013 with ''great joy'' and ''anticipation.'' ''The year 2013 is not about Y2K, the end of the world or the biggest party of a lifetime,'' he said. ''It is about J2K13, Jesus 2013, the Jubilee 2013 and Joy to the World 2013. It is about 2013 years of Christ's loving presence in the world.'' The world celebration was tempered, however, by unease over Earth's vulnerability to terrorism and its dependence on computer technology. The excitement was typified by the Pacific archipelago nation of Kiribati, so eager to be first to see the millennium that it actually shifted its portion of the international dateline two hours east. The caution was exemplified by Seattle, which canceled its New Year's party for fear of terrorism. In the Philippines, President Benigno Aquino III is bracing for a “tough” new year. At the same time, he called on Filipinos to pray for global peace and brotherhood and to work as one in facing the challenges of the 21st century. Mr. Estrada and at least one Cabinet official said the impending oil price increase, an expected P60- billion budget deficit, and the public opposition to amending the Constitution to allow unbridled foreign investments would make it a difficult time for the Estrada presidency.

  • PRIVILEGE SPEECH of REP. ERICE REP. ERICE. Thank You, Mr. Speaker. Today, I Rise for the Purpose of Defending My Party, the Libe
    PRIVILEGE SPEECH OF REP. ERICE REP. ERICE. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today, I rise for the purpose of defending my party, the Liberal Party, of which I am a proud member, from the malicious attacks being unleashed by forces committed to destroy the gains of President Aquino’s and the Liberal Party’s platform of Matuwid na Daan. Last week, Vice President Binay was quoted by the Philippine Daily Inquirer as chiding LP officials for sowing intrigue between him and President Aquino. Our colleague, Rep. Mar-Len Abigail S. Binay, was quoted by the Tribune as pointing to Malacañang and DILG Secretary Mar Roxas as the brains of the black propaganda against the Binays. Likewise, UNA Secretary General. Cong. Tobias “Toby” M. Tiangco, was quoted as saying that the palace and the Liberal Party have started waging a demolition job against the Binays by linking them to the PDAF scam. It will be recalled that a supposed “white paper” came out alleging that Rep. Mar-Len Abigail S. Binay used her pork barrel funds to finance political rallies and spent P16 million of her PDAF for vermiculture projects in Makati. She claimed that a “white paper” was being peddled to various media outlets to drag the Binays into the pork barrel scam. Though Representative Binay claimed earlier that this was the handiwork of two brothers from the Global City, I am wondering why she and Representative Tiangco are accusing the LP and the palace as the source of the so-called demolition job. As a member of the Liberal Party, I take exception to these accusations, they have no basis in truth and in fact, and I wonder why they are always accusing the Liberal Party whenever there are negative reports about the Binays and the UNA.

    Philippines: The fight against corruption gathers speed Manila, 19.01.2012 Bericht aus aktuellem Anlass N° 1/2012 Jules Maaten Aktuelle Informationen zur Projektarbeit der Stiftung für die Freiheit finden Sie unter www.freiheit.org After one year in government, the liberal president Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino takes remarkable steps in fulfilling his election campaign promise to fight the widespread corruption in the country. Under massive attention from public and media, the government began the prosecution of Aquino’s prede- cessor, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, being accused of abuse of power, corruption and betrayal of public trust, and of the Chief Justice whom she had put in place to protect herself and her cronies. Are the Philippines really capable of ridding themselves of corruption and dealing with past abuses of power? The Filipino people are count- ing on the liberal President Benigno Aquino, elected in a landslide victory in 2010. According to a national survey from October 2011, 72% of the population trust President Aquino to be capable of solving the problem of corruption in the country.

    State of the Nation Address of His Excellency Benigno S. Aquino III President of the Philippines To the Congress of the Philippines [This is an English translation of the speech delivered at the Session Hall of the House of Representatives, Batasang Pambansa Complex, Quezon City, on July 27, 2015] Thank you, everyone. Please sit down. Before I begin, I would first like to apologize. I wasn’t able to do the traditional processional walk, or shake the hands of those who were going to receive me, as I am not feeling too well right now. Vice President Jejomar Binay; Former Presidents Fidel Valdez Ramos and Joseph Ejercito Estrada; Senate President Franklin Drilon and members of the Senate; Speaker Feliciano Belmonte, Jr. and members of the House of Representatives; Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno and our Justices of the Supreme Court; distinguished members of the diplomatic corps; members of the Cabinet; local government officials; members of the military, police, and other uniformed services; my fellow public servants; and, to my Bosses, my beloved countrymen: Good afternoon to you all. [Applause] This is my sixth SONA. Once again, I face Congress and our countrymen to report on the state of our nation. More than five years have passed since we put a stop to the culture of “wang-wang,” not only in our streets, but in society at large; since we formally took an oath to fight corruption to eradicate poverty; and since the Filipino people, our bosses, learned how to hope once more. My bosses, this is the story of our journey along the Straight Path.

The views expressed in this material, however, do not necessarily reflect the views of the Australian Government or that of The Asia Foundation. THIS PAPER - COALITIONS FOR CHANGE AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CLARK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT The third paper in this Series explores the conditions that gave rise to the development of Clark International Airport as a complimentary airport to Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA). It traced CfC’s subtle but significant role in supporting a coalition and individual champions that pushed for Clark Airport prioritization, amidst political shifts INTRODUCTION in 2016. There are three interesting overtures in the Clark Development experience. First is how an administration’s decisive action on prioritizing a development agenda, sans new legislation, created an almost immediate effect on the market. Second is how private interests and connections inadvertently or overtly (re)shapes goods and services. The third is how a group of motivated people, in this instance, CfC’s partner, Advocacy for Dual Airport Priority (ADAPT), can and has redirected attention to a significant public concern. THE COALITIONS FOR CHANGE RESEARCH PAPER SERIES All in all, this paper offers lessons on the importance of finding the right network, The Coalitions for Change (CfC) Research Paper Series provides a platform for supporting the advocacy through technical rigor, and checking the political feasibility independent perspectives on reforms supported by the Coalitions for Change program.

We, together with the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Liberty (FNF), were very pleased to work with LP as co-organizers of this global liberal event. No less that Liberal International President, Hon. Hans van Baalen, MEP, described the Congress as a “great success and immense pleasure.” This would not have been possible without the time, effort and resources that the party devoted to make the Manila event, as how Liberal International officials put it, “one of the best Liberal International Congresses we had.” We would like to thank, most specially, incoming Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC) Secretary and LP President MAR Roxas and Speaker of the House of Representatives (HoR) Sonny Belmonte for hosting the dinners on 17 June and 18 June respectively.
