Cadi_o and Associates THE PHILIPPINE INSTITUTE FOR DEVELOPMENT STUDIES I11 AllRights Reserved by THE PHILIPPINE INSTITUTE FOR DEVELOPMENT STUDIES, 1982 The Philippine Institute for Development Studies is a non-stock, non-profit government research institution engaged in long-term, policy-oriented research. It was established on September 26, 1977 by virtue of Pi'esidential Decree No. 1201. Through the Institute's activities, it is hoped that policy- oriented research on Philippine social and economic development can be ex- panded in such a manner as to more directly and systematically assist the government in planning and policy making. PIDS publishes the output of its research program as part of its effort to promote the utilization of research findings and recommendations. The views expressed in published reports, however, do not necessarily reflect those of the Institute.

VI ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The research discussed in this volume was commissioned by the Philippine Institute for Development Studies, under the title "The Assessment of In- tegrated Mechanisms for Delivering Health and Related Social Services to the Poor." The Research and Publications Program of the U.P. College of Public Administration originally submitted the report in nine volumes -- five representing separate studies of each of the intensively studied case organiza- tions, i_corporated here in Chapters IV to VIII, and four integrating reports (Chapters I-III and IX-XII). The printing of this volume and the conduct of the research project would not have occurred without the faith and assistance of a number of people. Heading the list is Dr. Filologo Pante, Jr., President of the Philippine Institute for Development Studies of the National Economic and Development Authority who encouraged and supported the enterprise from the time it was a germ of a research idea until its submission as a report, and its revision for publication. We are grateful to him and his successor, Dr. Romeo M. Bautista, and their staff at PIDS for giving us a wide berth in designing and undertaking the project, in providing and releasing funds with a minimum of red tape and in being tolerant of our errors and delays. Many colleagues at the College of Public Administration, University of-the" Philippines, served as morale boosters and incisive critics at all stages of the project. We want to specially mention Dean Raul P. de Guzman who original- ly broached the research topic to Dr. Pante, and who served as our ever- available consultant throughout the project life; Prof. Ma. Concepcion P. Alfiler, Director of Graduate Studies, with whom we frequently discussed dif- ficult questions; and Prof. Mila A. Reforma, present Director, Research and Publications Program (RPP) whose criticisms on our methodology we could not always satisfy. Amongthe medical professionals who read our work, we wish to make par- ticular mention of Dr. Andres Angara, retired Consultant of the World Health Organization, who patiently went through all the nine original volumes of the. research report. He not only provided wide-ranging comments on a number of issues but also provoked further thought and analysis. Every interaction with Dr. Angara was a profitable learning experience. Unfortunately, we could not present all of the lessons into this volume. We likewise acknowledge the cooperation ann support ol all the ad- ministrators of the programs we studied. They have been gracious in accepting our criticisms and thoughtful in pointing out some errors we have overlooked. We mention here the heads of the programs at the localities we studied because we spent the most time with them and their staffs. (However, by this, we do not intend to overlook their national level administrators from whom we also received a lot of encouragement and blessings.) They are: Dr. Angelito I. Baluyot, Municipal Health Officer, Pilaf, Balaan; Dr. Sergio Gazmen, Direc- tor, Comprehensive Community Health Program (CCHP); Mr. Pedro VII l i . i Mauleon, Team Leader, Project Compassion, Teresa, Rizal; Sister Leonor Barrion, Coordinator, Makapawa; and Mr. -Ben Potot, Chairman of the Board, Sudtonggan Human Development Project. At the same time, we wish to thank the residents of the communities where we made our interviews for their understanding, patience and hospitality. Parts of ttiis volume were presented in three seminars in 1979 and 1981. The original compendium of health delivery mechanisms, then entitled "Services to the Poor: A Preliminary Look at Existing Mechanisms for Meeting Health Needs" was read in the Annual Convention of the Philippine Economic Socie- ty in December 1979. "Integration, Participation and Effectiveness: An Analysis of Five Health Delivery Mechanisms and their Effects,"iwhich served as the main integrating report of the Project, was presented in two occasions: I. At the meeting of the NEDA Social DeveloPment Committee, Technical (Deputy Minister)iLevel on March l i, 1981, and 2. At the seminar on Social Service Delivery and Policy Education and Research at the College of Public Administration, University of the Philip- pines on June 2, 1981. We are grateful to this varied audience of policy makers, administrators, economists, public administration scholars, sociologists and public health specialists for their enthusiastic interest and thoughtful comments which we have attempted to incorporate, albeit incompletely, into this final draft. Interviewing and subsequent coding were accomplished

Ce sujet est particulièrement pertinent étant donné l’importance des industries agro-alimentaires comme acteurs ayant un impact sur l’environnement, mais aussi dû à l’importante montée économique de l’Asie du Sud-Est. L’étude de cas de deux importantes corporations agro-alimentaires, une en Thaïlande et l’autre aux Philippines, a été choisie comme approche comparative. Avec une perspective axée sur le capitalisme du sud-est asiatique et un accent sur la diaspora chinoise, nous avançons que ces deux corporations agro-alimentaires ont utilisé trois stratégies pour développer leur entreprise au niveau national, régional et international. Ces trois stratégies sont culturelle (valeurs communes, connections familiales et réseau diasporique), politique (utilisation et capitalisation des liens privilégiés avec les agences étatiques et acteurs politiques clés) et économique (un modèle d’affaires unique fondée sur une intégration verticale étendue). Cet essai suggère que les corporations agro-alimentaires en Asie du Sud-Est ont développé une façon de «faire des affaires» qui est particulière et cela leur a permis de devenir d’importants joueurs dans l’industrie agro-alimentaire.

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES (Sponsoring Organization, Publishers, Availability) 9. ABSTRACT The American Public Health Association, under a contract with the Agency for Inter­ national Development, has designed a program In public health Improvement which Is called the Development and Evaluation of Integrated Delivery Systems (DEIDS). The activity Is designed to assist countries to demonstrate how to establish health delivery systems within seven years. Such projects Include, but are not limited to, Maternal and Child Health and Family Planning and Nutrition. The projects are to cover large populatir .s In predominantly rural areas. They are to utilize In-country resources for the service component, although external assistance organized by DEIDS Is available for planning, evaluation, training, and limited amounts of essential equipment. It Is expected that successful health delivery systems can be subsequently replicated In the country or In the region. These are phases through which DEIDS projects proceed: a) Phase I -- reconnaissance within a specific country or region, to gather informatlon about disease patterns, health services as currently organ­ lzed, local resources, cultural aspects, community Involvement, the potential for Integration of various parts of public health, opportunities i for Innovation, current and potential staffing, training, supervision, emphasis upon preventive services, outreach, cost, and evaluation b) Phase II -- Detailed planning.

The Solicitor General for the People of the Philippines. REGALADO, J.: Creative legal advocacy has provided this Court with another primae impressionis case through the present petition wherein the parties have formulated and now pose for resolution the following issue: Whether or not a court may take cognizance of an application for a search warrant in connection with an offense committed outside its territorial boundary and, thereafter, issue the warrant to conduct a search on a place outside the court's supposed territorial jurisdiction. 1 The factual background and judicial antecedents of this case are best taken from the findings of respondent Court of Appeals 2 on which there does not appear to be any dispute, to wit: From the pleadings and supporting documents before the Court, it can be gathered that on March 22, 1990, 1st Lt. Absalon V. Salboro of the CAPCOM Northern Sector (now Central Sector) filed with the Regional Trial Court of Kalookan City an application for search warrant. The search warrant was sought for in connection with an alleged violation of P.D. 1866 (Illegal Possession of Firearms and Ammunitions) perpetrated at No. 25 Newport St., corner Marlboro St., Fairview, Quezon City.
