PHILIPPINES: FACTS and FIGURES January - May 2016 PHILIPPINES: FACTS AND FIGURES January - May 2016 In central Mindanao and in the Sulu archipelago, fighting between government security forces and armed opposition groups led to temporary displacement of thousands of civilians. Meanwhile, sporadic hostilities continued between government security forces and the New People’s Army in eastern Mindanao, leading to the protracted displacement of civilians; while pockets of clashes also occurred in parts of southern Luzon and Visayas regions. “Families who flee from their homes again and again will not have stability in their lives. This remains a constant concern for us, as are the substantial number of people who are wounded by the fighting or by explosions in civilian areas,” said Pascal Porchet, head of the ICRC delegation to the Philippines. Another humanitarian concern for the ICRC is the alarmingly high national jail congestion rate that is adversely affecting the life and dignity of thousands of people awaiting or undergoing their trials. “Despite the multisectoral efforts we’ve seen to decongest the jails, the impact to the overall jail situation remains limited,” Porchet stressed.

    US ' w of •16 JUL20 P5:11 SEVENTEENTH CONGRESS ) SENATE OF THE PHILIPPINES ) First Regular Session ) RFC El VI',!') BY; SENATE SB No. 717 Introduced by SENATOR CYNTHIA A. VILLAR AN ACT INSTITUTIONALIZING THE PHILIPPINE ABACA INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM, PROVIDING FUNDS THEREFOR AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES EXPLANATORY NOTE This bill seeks to spur the revival of the production, processing, marketing, and distribution of abaca in suitable areas of the country in order to provide income to people living in rural areas and spur economic growth. The plant, known worldwide as Manila hemp is extracted from the leaf sheath around the trunk of the abaca plant (Musa textilis), a close relative of the banana, native to the country and widely distributed in the tropics. The harvesting abaca is labor intensive as each stalk must be cut into strips which are scraped to remove the pulp. The fibers are then washed and dried. Abaca is has high 15% lignin content and as such it is prized for its great mechanical strength, resistance to saltwater damage, and long fiber length - up to 3 m. Abaca farmers can be found in Albuera, Leyte, in Catanduanes, Davao Oriental, Northern Samar, Sorsogon, Sulu, Davao del Sur and Surigao del Sur, among others. Environmental benefits Erosion control and biodiversity rehabilitation can be assisted by intercropping abaca in former monoculture plantations and rainforest areas, particularly with coconut palms. Planting abaca can also minimize erosion and sedimentation problems in coastal areas which are important breeding places for sea fishes. The water holding capacity of the soil will be improved and floods and landslides will also be prevented.
