  • The 16Th Congress
    CongressWatch Report No. 176 Report No. 176 17 June 2013 The 16th Congress In the Senate The 16th Congress will open on 22 July, the same day that President Benigno Aquino III delivers his fourth State-of-the-Nation Address (SONA). The Senate will likely have a complete roster for the first time since the 12th Congress. It may be recalled that during the 2001 elections, 13 senators were elected, with the last placer serving the unfinished term of Sen. Teofisto Guingona who was then appointed as vice president. The chamber had a full roll of 24 senators for only a year, due to the appointment of Sen. Blas Ople as Foreign Affairs Secretary on 23 July 2002, and due to the passing of Sen. Renato Cayetano on 25 June 2003. The 11th, 13th, 14th, and 15th Congresses did not have full membership, primarily because a senator did not complete the six-year term due to being elected to another post.1 In the 2013 midterm elections last May, all of the six senators seeking re-election made it to the top 12, while two were members of the House of Representatives in the 15th Congress. The twelve senators-elect are: SENATOR PARTY PREVIOUS POSITION 1. ANGARA, Juan Edgardo M. LDP Representative (Aurora, lone) 2. AQUINO, Paolo Benigno IV A.

  • "Disappearances" in the Philippines
    May 1990 "DISAPPEARANCES" IN THE PHILIPPINES Johnny Salivo, an organizer for the National Federation of Sugar Workers in Negros Occidental, Philippines, disappeared on April 6, 1990 after being abducted by armed men believed linked to the Armed Forces of the Philippines. He is the fourteenth person to have been abducted by agents of the government this year. Seven persons remain missing and three others died while in military custody. Asia Watch is concerned by the growing number of disappearances throughout the Philippines, from rural areas of Bulacan Province to Manila. Most of the victims are members of labor, peasant, or urban poor organizations suspected by the military of being front organizations for the Communist Party of the Philippines or its armed wing, the New People's Army (NPA). Others are suspected NPA combatants of sympathizers. Asia Watch is calling on the Philippine government to conduct full and impartial investigations into all cases of disappearances and to bring those responsible to justice. It welcomes the invitation extended by the Philippines government to the United Nations Working Group on Disappearances in August 1989 to visit the Philippines and urges that everything possible be done to ensure that the visit takes place in 1990. Legal and Institutional Obstacles to Investigating Disappearances A person "disappears" when he or she is abducted or taken into custody by agents of the government who then refuse to acknowledge holding the person in question. Because of the severity of the problems of disappearances during the final years of the Marcos government, human rights lawyers and others made a concerted effort to get legal safeguards established by the Aquino administration which would prevent disappearances from taking place.

The system was created under the Letter Directive from the Headquarters of the National Defense Forces on February 22, 1949 to provide protection and security to its forces after World War II and during the height of the anti-dissident campaign. The need to have a corporate existence eventually emerged and led to a non-stock, non-profit corporation - Armed Forces of the Philippines Mutual Benefit Association, Inc. on September 1, 1965. The name was later changed to Armed Forces and Police Mutual Benefit Association, Inc. (AFPMBAI). The Association was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 13, 1966. March of the same year, the Insurance Commission also granted the Association the authority to start its mutual benefit operations. The AFPMBAI then became under the management of the AFP Chief of Staff on November 6, 1975 in accordance with President Ferdinand Marcos’ Letter of Instruction No. 333 that aimed to improve the services for the uniformed men and women of the Philippines.
