The team, composed ofpersonnel from the DEQ, the Coastal Resources Management, and the Northern Marianas College, will go to the site today, Burr said. "We 'II go out to determine how bad the problem is," she explained. Burr said the crown ofthorns starfish eats corals and is poisonous. It is the first reported outbreak of this kind of starfish in Obyan. In 1969, the Saipan Lagoon was afflicted with this stmiish scourge, which damaged the reefs there.

  • The AQUINO MANAGEMENT of the PRESIDENCY
    The AQUINO MANAGEMENT Of The PRESIDENCY IN THE FACE OF CRISIS Published by the Presidential Management Staff Office of the President Manila, Philippines June 1992 "Arm-chair critics and destabilizers have asked - can we survive despite all the problems that we suffer? My answer is definite yes! Yes, we will survive despite natural calamities, destabilization campaigns, insurgency, international crises and scathing criticism from those who should be talking less and working more. With full confidence in our people's resolve to sustain this freedom, we will survive. And we will grow". President Corazon C. Aquino Philippine League of Councilors First National Congress September 7, 1990 _________________________ INTRODUCTION THIS VOLUME OF The Aquino Management of the Presidency series seeks to document how President Corazon C. Aquino, the members of the Cabinet, and her closest advisers managed the crisis situations that confronted the Aquino governrnent. Not all the crisis situations are covered. The focus is on the seven putsches and related events which threatened the existence of the government or the unity of the armed forces. Chapter 1, entitled 'The Coup Attempts That Failed", covers crisis situations which started with the takeover of the Manila Hotel by the Marcos loyalists on July 6 to 7, barely four months after President Aquino assumed office, up to Black Saturday, April 18, 1987, when a band of rebel soldiers took over the Philippine Army headquarters. These were the jabs, as in boxing. Chapter 2, entitled 'The Military Putsches That Almost Succeeded", covers the punches: the bloody August 28, 1987 and the near fatal December 1989 coup attempts.

    NOT FOR PUBLICATION WITHOUT WRITER'S CONSENT ERG-23 INSTITUTE OF CURRENT WORLD AFFAIRS 124 Maple Street Leonia, NJ 07605 March, 1989 "Our Answer to the NPA" _The .philippine Army'..S. Special Operations Teams Mr. Peter Martin Institute of Current World Affairs 4 West Wheelock Street Hanover, NH 03755 Dear Peter, "No Vietnams here in Bataan," shouted Army Lieutenant Benny Doniego as he tore down the red hammer-and-sickle flag of the New People's Army. This was the climax of a two-hour, anti-communist pep rally led by local military commanders and the mayor. Holding up the red flag, Lt. Doniego asked if anyone in the audience wanted him to burn it. But instead of :a chorus of affirmation, only two or three women in the crowd of over 200 townsfolk stood up and said yes, the rest just laughed nervously, many nodding their heads in assent but unwilling to stand up. This was a pulo,g:pulng, or dialogue meeting, organized by the Army to win support among the townsfolk of b.Ka_ngay. (village) East Caliguman, population 4,000. And this was the municipality of Samal, population 21,000, in Bataan province. Although many of those attending professed support for the government, Samal has a reputation as a red town. A little over two years ago, during the cease-fire between the New People's Army (NPA) and the government, rebels staged a "peace rally" here in Samal. It was a brilliantly conceived show of strength just 50 kilometers Northwest of Manila. Over 80 fully-armed rebels marched down the main streets of Samal to the cheers of several hundred residents as local and foreign reporters flashed the news throughout the Philippines.

  • Our Heritage and the Departed: a Cemeteries Tour
    Our Heritage and the Departed: A Cemeteries Tour In commemoration of Undas, the Presidential Museum and Library offers a comprehensive diagram of the cemeteries and memorial shrines in Metro Manila and surrounding areas, including the specific graves and markers that house the remains of key historical figures, including Philippine Presidents and heroes of the Philippine Revolution. Carved out from the La Loma Cemetery in response to its Catholic exclusivity, the originally secular Cementerio del Norte or the Manila North Cemetery is now considered the biggest in Metro Manila. Among the prominent personalities interred in the cemetery are three Presidents of the Philippines—Manuel A. Roxas, Sergio Osmeña, and Ramon Magsaysay. Memorial sites are also housed in Manila North, among them: the Boy Scouts Cenotaph, in honor of the 24 Boy Scouts killed in a plane crash—the Philippine contingent to the 11th World Scout Jamboree of 1963; those for the Thomasites, a group of American teachers sent to the Philippines by the US government in 1901; and the Mauseleo de los Veteranos de la Revolucion, for those who fought for the Philippine Revolution and the Philippine-American War. The first presidential burial in Manila North Cemetery was of President Manuel L. Quezon’s. In 1979, his bones were transferred to the Quezon Memorial Circle; his wife’s followed on April 28, 2005. President Quezon’s only son is now buried in his father’s old tomb. The Quezon tomb became the model for the tombs of Presidents Roxas (until it was remodeled in the 1990s) and Magsaysay, and for other tombs such as that of Fernando Poe Jr.
