  • Tropical Depression USMAN and the Heavy Rainfall Event of 28-29 December 2018
    Republic of the Philippines DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) Weather Division TROPICAL CYCLONE REPORT Tropical Depression USMAN and the Heavy Rainfall Event of 28-29 December 2018 st Tropical Depression USMAN is the 21 and last Philippine tropical cyclone for the 2018 season and only tropical cyclone within the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) for the month of December 2018. As a tropical depression during its entire lifespan, USMAN did not bear any international name from the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center (RSMC) in Tokyo. Although relatively weak by meteorological standards, this tropical depression was one of the key weather systems that caused the Heavy Rainfall Event of 28-29 December 2018 over large portions of Southern Luzon and Eastern Visayas that resulted in hundreds of casualties and millions of pesos in damages to personal and public property. Meteorological History USMAN developed from a tropical disturbance embedded within a near-equatorial buffer zone (Conover and Sadler 1960; Ramage 1995) situated over the western portion of the Caroline Islands. This disturbance was first noted on the surface weather chart in the afternoon of 23 December 2018. PAGASA first noted the disturbance as a tropical depression at 2:00 PM of 25 December with maximum winds of 45 km/h and central pressure of 1002 hPa as the system approached Palau. USMAN entered the PAR at 3:00 PM of the same day. (a) (b) Fig. 1. (a) Himawari-8 RGB composite image at 2:00 PM on 28 December and (b) DOST-PAGASA warning best track of Tropical Depression USMAN.

  • Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines
    Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines November 2005 Republika ng Pilipinas PAMBANSANG LUPON SA UGNAYANG PANG-ESTADISTIKA (NATIONAL STATISTICAL COORDINATION BOARD) http://www.nscb.gov.ph in cooperation with The WORLD BANK Estimation of Local Poverty in the Philippines FOREWORD This report is part of the output of the Poverty Mapping Project implemented by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) with funding assistance from the World Bank ASEM Trust Fund. The methodology employed in the project combined the 2000 Family Income and Expenditure Survey (FIES), 2000 Labor Force Survey (LFS) and 2000 Census of Population and Housing (CPH) to estimate poverty incidence, poverty gap, and poverty severity for the provincial and municipal levels. We acknowledge with thanks the valuable assistance provided by the Project Consultants, Dr. Stephen Haslett and Dr. Geoffrey Jones of the Statistics Research and Consulting Centre, Massey University, New Zealand. Ms. Caridad Araujo, for the assistance in the preliminary preparations for the project; and Dr. Peter Lanjouw of the World Bank for the continued support. The Project Consultants prepared Chapters 1 to 8 of the report with Mr. Joseph M. Addawe, Rey Angelo Millendez, and Amando Patio, Jr. of the NSCB Poverty Team, assisting in the data preparation and modeling. Chapters 9 to 11 were prepared mainly by the NSCB Project Staff after conducting validation workshops in selected provinces of the country and the project’s national dissemination forum. It is hoped that the results of this project will help local communities and policy makers in the formulation of appropriate programs and improvements in the targeting schemes aimed at reducing poverty.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

  • Iloilo Case Study
    Case study Mobilizing Social Capital for Social Service Delivery in Marginalized Coastal Communities in the Province of Iloilo Jessica Asne Dator-Bercilla Poverty has always been a socioeconomic issue in the Philippines. The task of poverty alleviation is deemed the concern of government, nongovernment organizations, and donor agencies. That communities—the more immediate stakeholders in any development process—play a critical role in development, not only as mere beneficiaries but also as partners and leaders in the development process, is often overlooked. This case study focuses on the community as a critical link to development. A multi-axial framework of analysis serves as guidepost in presenting the case study. A paradigm towards a social development that encompasses geographical, ecological, economic, social, and cultural dimensions is used. It departs from an economic-biased perspective of resource mobilization for social development. It weaves together aspects of development that were once treated as if they were mutually exclusive categories. Perhaps the most significant contribution of the study is the focus it gives to social capital as a force in social and economic development. There are numerous theories proposing that social networks or aggregations of people for a particular purpose create a stock of facilitating and cooperating social arrangements, roughly referred to as social capital. In particular, these are social arrangements that would likely lead to an accumulation of a social stock that allow for the exchange of and access to goods, services, and entitlements that may subsequently contribute to the general welfare and to the improvement in the quality of life of a community (Massam and Dickinson 1999).

  • CN Flores the CATTLE CARAVANS of ANCIENT CABOLOAN
    C.N. Flores THE CATTLE CARAVANS OF ANCIENT CABOLOAN (INTERIOR PLAINS OF PANGASINAN): CONNECTING HISTORY, CULTURE AND COMMERCE BY CARTWHEEL Caravan cultures throughout the world depict stories of real jour- neys, discoveries and exploits. They also account for the construction of local histories, territories and market societies. At best, caravan routes map the geoeconomic and the ethnohistoric trail of peoples on the road towards venture capitalism in the earlier centuries. But in the 21st century, the history of caravan cultures remain only in the people’s memory as artefact (or artifi ce?) and which has been romanticized into bioepics or heroic adventures of legendary men caught in the age of material adventurism from the 13th to 16th centuries. In this day of global network and cyber transactions, it is fascinating and at the same time remarkable how the caravan culture still persists in the Philippines. Its persistence as a vestige of feudal past in an era of intensifi ed commercialization and industrialization is indeed indicative of uneven modes of development, as it is symbolic of inter- secting diverse cultures where the rural locale ventures into the national and into the global with far reaching implications on issues of ethnicity and cultural import. The cattle caravans of ancient Caboloan continue to peddle their bamboo-based products from the province of Pangasinan to the highways of Metro Manila. These are the ubiquitous cattle-drawn carriages selling hammocks, bamboo chairs and bookshelves we see in front of SM Fairview, Commonwealth, East and C.P. Garcia Avenues. But not until recently when Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) agents found them illegally parked along national roads thereby considered obstruction to traffi c.

  • Duterte and Philippine Populism
    JOURNAL OF CONTEMPORARY ASIA, 2017 VOL. 47, NO. 1, 142–153 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00472336.2016.1239751 COMMENTARY Flirting with Authoritarian Fantasies? Rodrigo Duterte and the New Terms of Philippine Populism Nicole Curato Centre for Deliberative Democracy & Global Governance, University of Canberra, Australia ABSTRACT ARTICLE HISTORY This commentary aims to take stock of the 2016 presidential Published online elections in the Philippines that led to the landslide victory of 18 October 2016 ’ the controversial Rodrigo Duterte. It argues that part of Duterte s KEYWORDS ff electoral success is hinged on his e ective deployment of the Populism; Philippines; populist style. Although populism is not new to the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte; elections; Duterte exhibits features of contemporary populism that are befit- democracy ting of an age of communicative abundance. This commentary contrasts Duterte’s political style with other presidential conten- ders, characterises his relationship with the electorate and con- cludes by mapping populism’s democratic and anti-democratic tendencies, which may define the quality of democratic practice in the Philippines in the next six years. The first six months of 2016 were critical moments for Philippine democracy. In February, the nation commemorated the 30th anniversary of the People Power Revolution – a series of peaceful mass demonstrations that ousted the dictator Ferdinand Marcos. President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III – the son of the president who replaced the dictator – led the commemoration. He asked Filipinos to remember the atrocities of the authoritarian regime and the gains of democracy restored by his mother. He reminded the country of the torture, murder and disappearance of scores of activists whose families still await compensation from the Human Rights Victims’ Claims Board.
