TRANSPORT CROWD SOURCE ICT DEMONSTRATION COMPONENT 1 FINAL REPORT Transport Crowd Source Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Demonstration Component 1 – Taxi Data Crowd Sourcing Platform October 2013 Produced by: Integrated Transport Planning Ltd 32a Stoney Street The Lace Market Nottingham NG1 1LL 25/06/2014 i TRANSPORT CROWD SOURCE ICT DEMONSTRATION COMPONENT 1 FINAL REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This document constitutes the final report of Component 1 of the Transport Crowd Source Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Demonstration project, which focused upon crowd-sourcing traffic data from taxi vehicles in Cebu City, Philippines, using replicable open source software tools and low-cost smartphones. The aim of the project was to explore the viability of using ICT (hardware and software) to create data feeds and analytical tools that would assist Cebu City Government with its day-to-day and strategic management of the city’s road network, whilst also assisting taxi operators and their drivers with their day-to-day taxi operations. The demonstration project was co-ordinated by the World Bank using funds from AusAid and the Korea ICT4D Trust, and implemented in partnership with Cebu City Government, the Philippines Department of Transport and Communications, Metro Cebu Taxi Operator Association. A summary of key findings related to the four project deliverables is provided in the table below: Applications / Tools / Objective Quantifiable Result Qualitative Result Training • TrafficProbe smartphone • Floating vehicle • Continuous city- app – used to collect data data collection for wide data from ‘floating’ vehicles.

The annualised total cost of replicating all components of the software platform are set out in the table below, and assume that ICT hardware costs are amortised over a three year implementation period: High value components of the demonstration project The Traffic Alerts data entry and visualisation tools represent both the cheapest, and one of the highest impact, components of the whole software platform tested in this project: At a low implementation cost, the tools provided Cebu City Government with the means to digitally record all of the incidents and traffic congestion events that happen on the road network. The tools represented both a substantial productivity improvement over existing (paper-based) incident reporting methods, and also facilitate easier management of traffic enforcement resources and an improved response to incidents occurring on the city’s highway network. 25/06/2014 iii TRANSPORT CROWD SOURCE ICT DEMONSTRATION COMPONENT 1 FINAL REPORT Information feeds generated by this tool were highly valued by taxi drivers, who could see them via the TrafficProbe app, and are now available for download and analysis by CITOM’s transport planning team – presenting opportunities for improved network planning. The TrafficProbe smartphone application and web-server software tools demonstrated potential for such approaches to be successful: These tools provide a feed of traffic data that can be used for both real-time Automatic Vehicle Location, and time-series analyses of traffic speed and journey time analyses across around 2 million roadway segments each month based on the sample achieved in Cebu City. If driver compliance and vehicle fleet operating environment issues experienced through the demonstration project in Cebu City are addressed, then there is scope for these tools to yield a richer sample of data that could also power real-time traffic data feeds. Achieving this would require a significantly larger sample of floating vehicles than was deployed in Cebu City - of the order of 750 participating vehicles connected to the server each day. These implementation costs would reduce if the smartphone handset costs are removed. This could potentially be achieved through vehicle fleet operators meeting these costs, or by publicly crowd-sourcing the data collection

  • The Duterte Bloodline
    The Duterte Bloodline Saturday, 05 December 2015 21:43 By Antonio V. Figueroa The Dutertes, one of the political clans in Davao Region, historically come from Cebu. Oral tradition points out that there were actually two Duterte clans in that province, one from the south and the other from the north. The Davao lineage, accordingly, traces its roots to northern Cebu, to couple Facundo Duterte and Zoila Gonzales whose marriage bore five children, namely: Ramon, Sr. who was married to Rosario Regis of Carcar; Mariano tied the knot with Salud Calvo; Soledad wedded Epifanio Rodis; Jorge married Estefania Dacayana; and former Davao governor Vicente, fondly called ‘Teti’ but known as ‘Nene’ in Danao City, became the husband of Soledad Roa, mother of Davao City mayor Rodrigo R. Duterte. A half-brother, the illegitimate son of Facundo, was Adolfo Enriquez, who took the surname of his mother as was the practice then. He lived in Cavite. Ramon, born on Dec. 23, 1901 in Danao City, was fondly called ‘Lolo Banawa’; he earned his Bachelor of Laws from the Philippine Law School in 1925. Three decades later, he was elected vice mayor of Cebu City, with Sergio Osmeña Jr., his running mate, as mayor. He took over as city chief executive (Sept. 13, 1957-Dec. 31, 1959) when Osmeña resigned to run for Congress. Aside from becoming a judge of the Court of First Instance, Ramon was also a Law professor at the University of the Visayas and the University of Southern Philippines. A Cebu City street was named after him by virtue of City Ordinance No.

It also sought to: contrast the traditional Sinug Dance and the contemporary Sinulog-based dance in terms of the dance steps, musicality, ritual, costumes, and the reason or purpose of dancing; identify the effects of the changes in the Sinulog-based dance in the tourism industry of Cebu City as a whole; generate a theory which serves as framework of the evolutionary transition of the Sinulog-based dance. A collective case study design with naturalistic observation was utilized. The transition of the traditional Sinug dance to the contemporary Sinulog dance was ignited by the change of external factors indicated in the Theory of Cultural Transition.

Journal of Current Southeast Asian Affairs 3/2016: 111–137 The Spectacle of Violence in Duterte’s “War on Drugs” Danilo Andres Reyes Abstract: This article argues that, in Duterte’s “war on drugs”, state power is exercised through the body in a spectacle of humiliation and violence. The analysis draws from the work of Foucault (1979) on the political value of a spectacle of the body to explain the distinctive character of Duterte’s violent war on drugs; of Feldman (1991) on the use of the body as an object in which violence is embodied to send political messages; of Agamben (1995) on eliminating life supposedly devoid of value; and on Mumford et al.
