  • BINONDO FOOD TRIP (4 Hours)
    BINONDO FOOD TRIP (4 hours) Eat your way around Binondo, the Philippines’ Chinatown. Located across the Pasig River from the walled city of Intramuros, Binondo was formally established in 1594, and is believed to be the oldest Chinatown in the world. It is the center of commerce and trade for all types of businesses run by Filipino-Chinese merchants, and given the historic reach of Chinese trading in the Pacific, it has been a hub of Chinese commerce in the Philippines since before the first Spanish colonizers arrived in the Philippines in 1521. Before World War II, Binondo was the center of the banking and financial community in the Philippines, housing insurance companies, commercial banks and other financial institutions from Britain and the United States. These banks were located mostly along Escólta, which used to be called the "Wall Street of the Philippines". Binondo remains a center of commerce and trade for all types of businesses run by Filipino- Chinese merchants and is famous for its diverse offerings of Chinese cuisine. Enjoy walking around the streets of Binondo, taking in Tsinoy (Chinese-Filipino) history through various Chinese specialties from its small and cozy restaurants. Have a taste of fried Chinese Lumpia, Kuchay Empanada and Misua Guisado at Quick Snack located along Carvajal Street; Kiampong Rice and Peanut Balls at Café Mezzanine; Kuchay Dumplings at Dong Bei Dumplings and the growing famous Beef Kan Pan of Lan Zhou La Mien.

  • Robbery & Theft Prediction Using Probabilistic Graphical Model
    Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Dubai, UAE, March 10-12, 2020 Event of Crime against Property: Robbery & Theft Prediction using Probabilistic Graphical Model Rex Aurelius C. Robielos School of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management Mapua University Intramuros, Manila, Philippines [email protected] Nico Duran School of Information Technology Mapua University Intramuros, Manila, Philippines [email protected] Abstract This study analyzed the occurrence of robbery and theft in the City of Manila using discrete Bayesian network model. Using a 5-year data of robbery and theft in the City of Manila (with conviction), the results showed that February and July emerged as the months with highest probability of crime happening at 10.66 percent and lowest on April with 6.80 percent. In terms of crime happening on a week, the highest probability occurred on the 2nd week with 28.3 percent and lowest on the 5th week at 6.8 percent. Most of the crimes happened between 3PM to 6PM with 17 percent and lowest occurrence between 6AM to 9AM at 7.0 percent. Male population are more likely to be a victim of crime in almost all of the identified locations except for Pandacan where female population has a higher probability at 53 percent. With these information, a patrol priority location table was developed to show the location where the crime is more likely to happen in a particular time range of the day. This information can help the Philippine National Police in the police resource deployment. Keywords Crime against property, robbery and theft prediction, probabilistic graphical model 1.

  • Music in the Heart of Manila: Quiapo from the Colonial Period to Contemporary Times: Tradition, Change, Continuity Ma
    Music in The Heart of Manila: Quiapo from the Colonial Period to Contemporary Times: Tradition, Change, Continuity Ma. Patricia Brillantes-Silvestre A brief history of Quiapo Quiapo is a key district of Manila, having as its boundaries the winding Pasig River and the districts of Sta. Cruz, San Miguel and Sampaloc. Its name comes from a floating water lily specie called kiyapo (Pistia stratiotes), with thick, light-green leaves, similar to a tiny, open cabbage. Pre-1800 maps of Manila show Quiapo as originally a cluster of islands with swampy lands and shallow waters (Andrade 2006, 40 in Zialcita), the perfect breeding place for the plant that gave its name to the district. Quiapo’s recorded history began in 1578 with the arrival of the Franciscans who established their main missionary headquarters in nearby Sta. Ana (Andrade 42), taking Quiapo, then a poor fishing village, into its sheepfold. They founded Quiapo Church and declared its parish as that of St. John the Baptist. The Jesuits arrived in 1581, and the discalced Augustinians in 1622 founded a chapel in honor of San Sebastian, at the site where the present Gothic-style basilica now stands. At about this time there were around 30,000 Chinese living in Manila and its surrounding areas, but the number swiftly increased due to the galleon trade, which brought in Mexican currency in exchange for Chinese silk and other products (Wickberg 1965). The Chinese, noted for their business acumen, had begun to settle in the district when Manila’s business center shifted there in the early 1900s (originally from the Parian/Chinese ghetto beside Intramuros in the 1500s, to Binondo in the 1850s, to Sta.Cruz at the turn of the century).

Students of Southeast Asian history have had little to say about the historical role played by the Chinese mestizo in that region. Although studies of the Chinese in Southeast Asia have devoted some attention to the position of native-born Chinese as opposed to immigrant Chinese, the native-born Chinese of mixed Chinese- native ancestry is rarely singled out for specific treatment. Perhaps this is because in most parts of Southeast Asia the Chinese mestizos (to use the Philippine term for persons of mixed Chinese-native ancestry) have not been formally and legally recognized as a separate group — one whose membership is strictly defined by genealogical considerations rather then by place of birth, and one which, by its possession of a unique combination of cultural characteristics, could be easily distinguished from both the Chinese and the native com­ munities.

    DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS & HIGHWAYS TERMS OF REFERENCE CONSULTING SERVICES FOR THE DETAILED ENGINEERING DESIGN FOR RETROFITTING/STRENGTHENING OF PERMANENT BRIDGES- DELPAN AND PANDACAN BRIDGES I. INTRODUCTION A. BACKGROUND The Government of the Philippines (GOP), through the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), has engaged the services of ___________________________________, to provide consulting services for various proposed DPWH projects (Detailed Engineering Design and/or Special Studies) CY _____. The specific project that will require the services of the Consultant will be identified by the DPWH during the duration of the consultancy contract. The VFS is classified as an active fault in the Greater Metro Manila Area (GMMA) and is consisted of two segments: the 10-km long East Valley Fault (EVF) and the 100-km long West Valley Fault (WVF). Both faults are projected to be capable of generating a large earthquake of magnitudes 6.2 and 7.2, respectively, which may result to a very destructive ground shaking. On May 18, 2015, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST-PHIVOLCS) launched the VFS Atlas which is a handbook of large scale maps showing in detail areas traversed by the fault system in line with the vision of providing the people with a handy reference for traversing active faults and as guide in formulating mitigation measures and response strategies in the event of a large earthquake. Relative thereto, this Terms of Reference (TOR) shall refer to the following identified priority bridges, duly classified as critical and shall need urgent retrofitting/strengthening scheme to conform to the latest seismic code for bridges: 1.
