  • Cruising Guide to the Philippines
    Cruising Guide to the Philippines For Yachtsmen By Conant M. Webb Draft of 06/16/09 Webb - Cruising Guide to the Phillippines Page 2 INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world after Indonesia, with around 7,000 islands. Relatively few yachts cruise here, but there seem to be more every year. In most areas it is still rare to run across another yacht. There are pristine coral reefs, turquoise bays and snug anchorages, as well as more metropolitan delights. The Filipino people are very friendly and sometimes embarrassingly hospitable. Their culture is a unique mixture of indigenous, Spanish, Asian and American. Philippine charts are inexpensive and reasonably good. English is widely (although not universally) spoken. The cost of living is very reasonable. This book is intended to meet the particular needs of the cruising yachtsman with a boat in the 10-20 meter range. It supplements (but is not intended to replace) conventional navigational materials, a discussion of which can be found below on page 16. I have tried to make this book accurate, but responsibility for the safety of your vessel and its crew must remain yours alone. CONVENTIONS IN THIS BOOK Coordinates are given for various features to help you find them on a chart, not for uncritical use with GPS. In most cases the position is approximate, and is only given to the nearest whole minute. Where coordinates are expressed more exactly, in decimal minutes or minutes and seconds, the relevant chart is mentioned or WGS 84 is the datum used. See the References section (page 157) for specific details of the chart edition used.

  • Vincenzo Sagun LGU and the Subanen: “The Tandem to Beat” in Protecting Children’S Well-Being
    Vincenzo Sagun LGU and the Subanen: “The tandem to beat” in protecting children’s well-being Local Officials of V. Sagun were fully entertained by a Subanen dance presentation graced by the dance moves of Hon. Edilberto S. Adlaon during the launching of the Local Council for the Protection of Children (LCPC) barangay-to-barangay orientation. The presence of the Subanen people during the event vividly manifest their support to the program. “Now that the Indigenous Peoples (IP) become our partner in the implementation of the Child Protection Policies, we have consistently got zero child abuse case rate and continue to be on top in every endeavor,” Mayor Merlinda P. Maata proudly expressed. The municipality of Vincenzo Sagun (V. Sagun) is one of the best implementers of the Child Protection Policy and has consistently maintained its zero child abuse case rate over the years. This is something that every V. Sagunian has been proud of. But the factor that helped the Local Government Unit (LGU) attained this success amidst technological advancement is their respect in maintaining strong ties with their citizens, particularly the Subanen – one of the indigenous people tribes of V. Sagun. Preserving Culture and Heritage A fifth class municipality located in the southern portion of the province of Zamboanga del Sur, V. Sagun is located 60 kilometers away from the capital city of Pagadian. The town is bounded in the north by the Municipality of Margosatubig, Maligay Bay on the Southeast, Dumanquillas Bay on the Southwest and Dimataling in the east. Known as the biodiversity hub of Zamboanga del Sur, visitors can expect nature at its best when you happen to visit the simple and peaceful town of V.

  • Philippines Zamboanga and Basilan Emergency Situation Report No
    Philippines: Zamboanga and Basilan Emergency Situation Report No. 10 (as of 30 October 2013) This report is produced by OCHA Philippines in collaboration with humanitarian partners. It was issued by OCHA Philippines. It covers the period from 23 to 29 October 2013. The next report will be issued on or around 5 November. Highlights Local government allows residents of Rio Hondo and Mariki to briefly return home to gather belongings. Congestion, WASH, health and protection remain serious concerns in evacuation centres. First city inter-cluster coordination convened on 25 October by Zamboanga’s relief and humanitarian action coordinator. 137,000 78,409 1,243 Estimated affected People displaced in People displaced in people in Zamboanga Basilan Zamboanga city and Basilan province Source: Department of Social Welfare and Development Report No. 97 / Protection Cluster Assessment Report No. 21 Situation Overview Seven weeks since the emergency began on 9 September, 78,409 people remain displaced in Zamboanga City (40,347 inside 22 evacuation centres and 38,062 outside) while 1,243 people are displaced in Basilan province according to the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the Protection Cluster. DSWD is currently revalidating the number of displaced people in Zamboanga and data may continue to fluctuate during the process. Tracking the displaced population poses challenges, as people who left the evacuation centres during the flooding in early October have since returned to seek assistance. Humanitarian partners in Basilan reported people displaced by the conflict are now returning home. Most areas of Zamboanga City are accessible for humanitarian relief operations. Residents of Barangay Santa Catalina (barangay is the lowest administrative unit in the Philippines) were allowed to return home to collect their remaining belongings and salvage scrap metal from their homes to sell in order to supplement their income.

    Proceedings of IUCN/WCPA-EA-4 Taipei Conference March 18-23, 2002, Taipei, Taiwan CURRENT STATUS AND PROSPECTS OF PROTECTED AREAS IN THE LIGHT OF THE PHILIPPINE BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION PRIORITIES Perry S. Ong, Ph. D. Fellow, Center for Applied Biodiversity Science, CI Science Director, Conservation International Philippines Associate Professor, Institute of Biology, UP Diliman I. INTRODUCTION The Philippines, the world’s second largest archipelago after Indonesia, covers a land area of about 300,000 km2 [1]. It is one of the 17 megadiversity countries, which between themselves contain 70 to 80 percent of global biodiversity [2]. Philippine rainforest is home to more than 1130 terrestrial wildlife species (Table 1) and between 10,000-13,000 species of plants [3] so far recorded, of which more than half are found nowhere else in the world. As such, the Philippines has also been described as Galapagos times ten [4]. It is also one of 25 global biodiversity hotspots [5, 6] with more than 97 percent of its original forest cover lost [7, 8]. In fact more original forests were lost in the last 50 years of the 20th century than what was lost in the previous 450 years combined [9]. Yet more new species are still being discovered on these islands than any other areas on earth in recent times [e.g., see 10, 11] Table 1.
