  • Koreanovelas, Teleseryes, and the “Diasporization” of the Filipino/The Philippines Louie Jon A
    Koreanovelas, Teleseryes, and the “Diasporization” of the Filipino/the Philippines Louie Jon A. Sanchez In a previous paper, the author had begun discoursing on the process of acculturating Korean/Hallyu soap opera aesthetics in television productions such as Only You (Quintos, 2009), Lovers in Paris (Reyes, 2009), and Kahit Isang Saglit (Perez & Sineneng, 2008). This paper attempts to expand the discussions of his “critico-personal” essay by situating the discussions in what he described as the “diasporization” of the Filipino, and the Philippines, as constructed in recent soap operas namely Princess and I (Lumibao, Pasion, 2012) A Beautiful Affair (Flores, Pobocan, 2012), and Kailangan Ko’y Ikaw (Bernal & Villarin, 2013). In following the three teleserye texts, the author observes three hallyu aesthetic influences now operating in the local sphere—first, what he called the “spectacularization” of the first world imaginary in foreign dramatic/fictional spaces as new “spectre of comparisons” alluding to Benedict Anderson; the crafting of the Filipino character as postcolonially/neocolonially dispossessed; and the continued perpetration of the imagination of Filipino location as archipelagically—and consequently, nationally—incoherent. The influences result in the aforementioned “diasporization”, an important trope of simulated and dramaturgically crafted placelessness in the process of imagining Filipino “communities” and their sense of “historical” reality, while covering issues relating to the plight and conditions of the diasporic Filipino. Keywords: Koreanovelas, Korean turn, teleserye, translation, imagined communities, diaspora, hallyu After a decade of its constant presence in the Philippine market, the extent of change brought about by the “Koreanovela” in the landscape of Philippine television is clearly noticeable and merits revaluation.

  • The Familiar Senate
    CongressWatch Report No. 175 Report No. 175 11 April 2013 Part 2 of the 2013 Election Series of CongressWatch The familiar Senate The political dynamics in the Senate often differs from the House of Representatives, particularly on the issues of the national budget and on the proposed amendments to the Constitution. They also have a different take on key measures—the reproductive health law and the law restructur- ing excise taxes of alcohol and tobacco products, based on their vote records (yes-no-abstain): Responsible Parenthood Restructuring the excise taxes of and Reproductive Health alcohol and tobacco products Act House of Representatives HB 4244: 133-79-7 HB 5727: 210-21-5 Senate SB 2865: 13-8-0 SB 3299: 10-9-0 The Senate is also different in the elections since only 12 of the 24 slots are up for grabs every na- tional election. Each senator has a six-year term and is eligible for re-election, not exceeding two consecutive terms. Unlike in the House of Representatives, the Senate, as an institution, is not completely dissolved in-between elections. According to the Senate website, “the purpose of the continuity of the life of the Senate is intended to encourage the maintenance of policies as well as guarantee that there will be experienced members who can help and train newcomers in the discharge of their duties.” However, at least in the last two elections, veterans and familiar faces made up the Senate roll. This is where the senatorial contest runs similar to those in the legislative districts or even in other elective posts—incumbent and returning officials have had the upper hand.
