Baguio: the Little America” “Baguio: The Little America” Ericka Marie A. Domingo I. Background of the Study Baguio City, known as the “Summer Capital of the Philippines” has a very rich history. It was discovered by the American after Spain sold the Philippines to them and it serves as their hill station. It was initially planned and developed by Daniel Burnham in 1990 as a health resort where Americans could find relief from the intense heat at lowlands. In the modern days, the urbanized City of Baguio is a widely-known tourist spot in the Philippines and tracing back its history falls back to the time of Americans. The study or mapping focuses on tracing back what the initial establishments of America are still present in the modern world, given that this establishments are the reason why it is called as “The Little America”. The process of mapping to why it is called as The Little America, also includes the appreciation of the type of art present and the art style of these establishments. II. Objectives of the Study The use of cartography to map Baguio City gives a good introduction to the people who are new to the place, offers a sense of appreciation to the nature and opens up the level of sensitivity for the tradition and beliefs of the City and its people to be respected. Baguio City, being named as “The Little America” already offers a brief history of Baguio City alone, but knowing it is named after that also gives a sense of questioning as to why it is called so. The study aims at giving the reasons to why it is called as “The Little America’. It is through mapping and tracing back all the places that are still physically present in the City of Baguio which was established and planned initially by the Americans. In relation to art, it is through showing and manifesting the art style or the type of art present in the place. This is all presented in the map, which is in video format, to appreciate these establishments not just in terms of its development but also to appreciate its artistic value. Additionally, it is conducted in a way that the younger generations can also appreciate it. Since, it is a mapping created through the use of shapes and images, it is very catchy to kids, and it offers a sense of entertainment and educational purposes. III. Methodology The study will only be accomplished and be credible with the presence of research techniques or the process of collecting data. In this study, it is through the collecting and gaining of evidences and information which will later be used to trace back the history of Baguio City, leading up to its name as the “The Little America”. The information, data, and details were gained and collected through the effort of going to each of these places and observing it in every manner for better representation and presentation of the study. It is then analyzed and constructed piece by piece with the use of Microsoft PowerPoint. It is also appreciated through reading of histories to why they are established in the time of American Occupation. IV.

Reflection and Conclusion The Summer Capital of the Philippines which is the Baguio City, is known for its cold weather and its Panagbenga Festival thus, attracting more tourists each and each year. Little did we know, this highly-urbanized area also entails a very rich history and that it is also called as “The Little America”. The name itself contains so much memory and information of the place and appreciating it more is a good way of respecting the nature of Baguio City, but knowing its history also tells the deepest experience of the place. Baguio City, which was initially developed and planned by the Americans, was established to be their health resort in relation to the unbearable heat of the lowlands. From then, they build many infrastructures wherein all the resorts in the lowlands can be continued in highlands when it is summer season, and these infrastructures are the physical manifestation of its name Little America. As a 1st year student of the University of the Philippines Baguio which is mainly from lowland and came here to study and pursue career, it is very important to know the history of Baguio City and the most recognizable part of the history of Baguio is the reason to why it is called ‘The Little Baguio”. The process of making a cartography is a very useful way to map the history of Baguio leading up to its so-called name. Throughout the process of making the map, particularly the process of collecting information and data, it is so important that I made it up to these memorable places as if it was also bringing me into the history of the county. The appreciation of these places in relation to art also what molds me to get the attention to these places. It is so peaceful in nature, but in general, it entails so much memory and history of Baguio City until we all gain independence. The whole process of cartography might be tiring, but at the end of the day, it is something that we can keep forever, just like its history. References: [1] Baguio: The Little America.

  • 'It Seems Life No Longer Has Any Value Nowadays'
    ‘It seems life no longer has any value nowadays’ Church starts days of prayer against ‘blasphemers, murderers’ in nationwide gatherings 05:18 AM July 18, 2018 Church people light candles during a gathering in Manila to pray for an end to killings. —GRIG C. MONTEGRANDE Leaders of the Catholic Church on Monday presided over a thinly veiled counterattack against President Rodrigo Duterte’s assaults on the country’s most dominant religion and God himself, marking the start of days of prayer for protection against what a Church statement said were blasphemers and murderers. In Baguio City, at least 800 bishops and priests from parishes in Northern Luzon gathered for a weeklong retreat in response to a call made by the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) to storm the heavens with prayers to end attacks on the Church and a cycle of violence that has alarmed many. Vatican represented This was the first time in decades that dioceses in Northern Luzon held a retreat together, said Fr. Oliver Mendoza, rector of Mary Help of Christian Theology Seminary in San Fabian town, Pangasinan province. The retreat at the Baguio Cathedral would run until July 20 and would be attended by the papal nuncio, or Vatican ambassador to the Philippines, Archbishop Gabriele Giordano Caccia. They were expected to fast and give alms from July 17 to 19. Mendoza said the retreat would also commemorate the Year of the Clergy and Consecrated Persons. “They will offer prayers and penance for the sins of murder, blasphemy and sacrilege,” said Lingayen Dagupan Archbishop Socrates Villegas.

SALDIVAR-SALI Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering on May 24, 2004 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Engineering in Civil and Environmental Engineering ABSTRACT This research formulates a LANDSLIDE RISK RATING SYSTEM for the Greater Baguio area in the Philippines. It is hoped that the tool will be made a part of the physical/urban planning process when used by engineers and planners and used to address risks posed by landslides given the rapidly increasing concentration of population and the development of infrastructure and industry in the Baguio area. Reports and studies of individual landslides in the area are reviewed in order to discover the causal factors of mass movements and their interactions. The findings of these research works are discussed in the first portion of this paper.

  • The Panagbenga: Ethico-Political Issues, Contestations, and Recommendations on the Cultural Sustainability of a Festival
    Tafter Journal scritto da Narcisa Paredes-Canilao il 30 Luglio 2014 The Panagbenga: Ethico-Political Issues, Contestations, and Recommendations on the Cultural Sustainability of a Festival Introduction The Panagbenga is a four-week cultural festival celebrated annually in February since 1995, in the popular tourist destination of Baguio City, Philippines. Through the years, the festival has been a working coordination between the City Government, private sectors, and the Baguio Flower Festival Foundation, Inc. (BFFFI). Based on its recent enactments, the festival’s mandated objective has become more coherent, which is “to promote the city’s culture, unity among its people, tourism and economic industries and [to showcase] Baguio as a City of Flowers” (AO No. 008-S. 2014). The integration of environmental concerns, are indicated in some specific environmental policies and the designation of an environment/technical committee as one of the support committees. Examined literature, and documents plus oral interviews for the study, commonly trace the origins of Panagbenga to a Baguio direly needing to reclaim a sense of place, to reaffirm solidarity among its people, and, to prove it has risen anew as a worthy tourist destination, all after its devastation by a 7.7 magnitude earthquake (on the Richter Scale), in 1990. Many of its tourist attractions, hotels, schools, government buildings, and art centers were either leveled to the ground or structurally damaged, and many lives perished, turning the city into a veritable ghost town. Baguio’s status as a Northern hub of government, commerce, culture, and tourism was adversely affected. Baguio’s history of development from a pre-colonial settlement of Ibaloi families (Bagamaspad and Hamada-Pawid, 1985), into a multi-ethnic and multi-cultural city, consists of several milestones (see also, Fry, 1983; Reed, 1999; Scott, 1974, 1981; Tolentino, 2007).
