Inaugurated in , it was the first American memorial on Philippine soil since the United States had recognized the Philippines as an independent country in , following almost fifty years of colonial rule. This article interprets the monu- ment and the wider Corregidor memoryscape. It examines how the United States, the Philippines and the Second World War are depicted both within and around the memorial and what this suggests about the creation and persistence of colonial memory. The article explores the tensions between colonial and decolonized remembrance, and the extent to which the Pacific War Memorial serves as a historical marker for the United States’ achieve- ments in the Philippines. When Philippine President Ferdinand E. Marcos dedicated the PacificWar Memorial (Figure )on June , he described it as a “monument to the American and Filipino alliance for freedom.” The structure, which stands on Corregidor Island in Manila Bay, was particularly significant for an American overseas memorial, as it was built to commemorate the Philippine as well as the American forces that had lost their lives in the Pacific theatre during the Second World War.

  • Ecotourism Policy Options for the White Water Rafting in Cagayan De Oro River, Philippines: a Multi-Criteria Analysis
    3rd International Conference on Public Policy (ICPP3) June 28-30, 2017 – Singapore T02P17/Policy Tools for Environment and Social Policies Session 2 Policy Tools in Social Policy Ecotourism Policy Options for the White Water Rafting in Cagayan De Oro River, Philippines: A Multi-Criteria Analysis Author Catherine Roween C. Almaden Xavier University – Ateneo de Cagayan Philippines [email protected] Friday, June 30th 08:15 to 10:15 (Manasseh Meyer MM 3 - 4 (38)) Abstract The primary goal of this research paper is to determine the policy options on the basis of a multiple criteria analysis related to the regulation of the Cagayan de Oro River White Water Rafting Ecotourism in the Philippines. This study applied the Delphi Method in examining the policy alternatives capable of addressing the challenges of attaining sustainable ecotourism. More specifically, this research determined the criteria necessary for ecotourism policy evaluation. The evaluation of criteria for regulation of the Cagayan de Oro River White Water Rafting Ecotourism may lead to the formulation of better management strategies to protect natural and cultural resources and fulfill broader social objectives. Given the current challenges in attaining in sustainable ecotourism, reflected by sanitation problems, absence of amenities and poor infrastructure, analysis of policy options will improve decision-making and provide sustained revenues for management of the white water river rafting ecotourism sector. Policy options are reviewed as they apply to the Cagayan de Oro River White Water Rafting. Key results suggest the application of combination of policy options such as entrance fees for tourists and permits for operators are most preferred.

Dela Cruz, Paul Henric N. GojoCruz,Eden S. David, Evaristo A. Abella, Khristina G. Judan Cruz* Department of Biological Sciences, Central Luzon State University, Science City of Munoz, Nueva Ecija, Philippines Article published on September 13, 2018 Key words: Minalungao National Park, tree species, IUCN. Abstract Minalungao National Park in Nueva Ecija, Central Luzon, Philippines is a protected Key Biodiversity Area and a priority for conservation studies. With its high level of biodiversity, sthis area offers vast opportunities in research especially in species identification and composition. Quadrats measuring 20 × 20 meters were laid out along ten (10) transect lines measuring 100 meters each with a total sampling area of 1200 m2. Identification was done using morphological characters. A total of 55 species of trees were recorded from the study area belonging to 25 families and 46 genera, 22% of which are endemic. Four (4) species were listed in the updated 2017 list of threatened plants issued by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR)-Philippines. All members of the family Dipterocarpaceae, Lamiaceae and Burseraceae recorded from the area were listed in IUCN Red List. This paper presents an initial inventory of tree species that presents prospects for formulation of actions for its conservation. *Corresponding Author: Khristina G.

  • Participatory Development of Indigenous People in the Bataan Natural Park
    ProsPER.Net Joint Research Project: Development of learning materials and methodological support on Sustainable Production and Consumption Participatory Development of Indigenous People in the Bataan Natural Park Lourdes J. Cruz (Professor Emeritus, Marine Science Institute, University of the Philippines) Segundo Romero (Director, Innovations at the Base of the Pyramid, Ateneode Manila University) ABSTRACT DESCRIPTION In 2010, a new national administration was elected in the Philippines. The new government means new people at the national, provincial, and local levels working with relevant intermediaries and development actors to take a new look at existing government programs and refresh and update these. Such a process is particularly critical and sensitive in the case of indigenous peoples such as the Magbukún Aytas of Kanawan in Morong, Bataan. So far, government programs to assist them have been delicate attempts to balance their traditions and culture with requirements of the mainstream political, administrative, and social system. On one hand there have been a lack of understanding and responsiveness of outsiders to their situation, and on the other hand, a lack of capacity on the part of the indigenous people to make full use of opportunities presented by the outsiders. Learning objectives: To encourage discussion and improve understanding on the challenges of actively engaging indigenous people and communities in community development strategies and programmes. To design, integrate, and implement sustainable production and consumption

Mycosphere 5(2), 299–311, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/5/2/4 Abstract In terms of their flora and fauna, tropical forests are generally reported to be characterized by higher species diversity than temperate forests. Can this also be true for microorganisms such as myxomycetes? In the present study, three lowland tropical forests in the Philippines and three mid- latitude temperate forests in north central Arkansas in the United States were surveyed for myxomycetes with the moist chamber technique as it applies to these organisms. Results indicated that more species of myxomycetes were associated with samples of aerial litter (dead but still attached plant parts), forest floor litter and woody twigs collected in Arkansas than for those collected in the Philippines.
