Biographical Narrative
BIOGRAPHICAL NARRATIVE Clarence M. Batan, PhD, is a Filipino sociologist whose academic training, research works, teaching experience, and community-based advocacies reflect wide-ranging yet focused interests. Such interests are on (a) disadvantaged children and youth (Filipinos and Global South counterparts) specifically along the realms of education-employment nexus; (b) the demands and challenges of teaching Sociology as a social science, profession, and as way of life; and (c) the translation of social research into creative forms for discussion, and policy/program development. Clarence who is better known as “Yayet” among his family and colleagues, is a Professor of Sociology at the Faculty of Arts and Letters, a former director of the Research Center on Culture, Education, and Social Issues (RCCESI), now known as the Research Center for Social Sciences and Education (RCSSED) at the University of Santo Tomas (UST) (Manila, Philippines). In his earlier years as a student of sociology, Clarence was first exposed to the grounded and problematic realities of growing-up and transitional issues of Filipino children and youth through his trainings at University of Santo Tomas (AB Sociology, 1995) and the University of the Philippines (MA Sociology, 1999). These found interests of Clarence are reflected in his almost 25 years of ethnographic research within the fishing barangays of Talim Island and Binangonan, Rizal which since 2005 has expanded to include selected barangays in Manila, and two distinct locales in the province of Laguna namely, -

In addition the 224 named 3 by accuracy to spp. (and sspp.), some 65-70 still undescribed or unidentified (to species level) taxa are listed. Detailed data for 14 named which listed from the collecting are presented spp., arc Philippines for the first time, viz. Archibasis viola, Ceriagrion cerinorubellum, Acrogomphusjubilaris, Ictinogomphus decoratus melaenops, Gynacantha arsinoe, G. dohrni, Heliaeschna simplicia, H. uninervulata, Indaeschna grubaueri, Tetracanthagyna brunnea, Macromia westwoodi, Aethriamanta gracilis, Neurothemis fluctuans and Rhyothemis obsolescens. Prodasineura obsoleta (Selys, 1882) is synonymized with P. integra (Selys, 1882) and Gomphidia platerosi Asahina, 1980 with G. kirschii Selys, 1878. A few other possible synonymies are suggested for future confirmation. A brief review of the earlier studies on Philippine Odonata is presented. Grouped according to the present understanding of the Philippine biogeographical regions, all major islands are briefly characterized and separate lists are given for 40 islands. The records are based onliterature data, and on ca 27 000 specimens in Roland 000 SMF Muller’s collection, ca 2 specimens in coll. Ris at and on some other smaller collections studied by the authors. INTRODUCTION While the second author made plans for a zoological expedition to the Philip- pines in 1985, Dr Bastiaan K i a u t a suggested him to take collecting of dragon- flies as one of the goals, because the knowledge of the Philippine Odonata fauna was very inadequate. -

Cavite Province
CAVITE PROVINCE PROVINCIAL DISASTER RISK REDUCTION AND MANAGEMENT PLAN 2011-2016 PROVINCIAL HAZARD PROFILE Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan CAVITE PROVINCE INTRODUCTION Disasters or emergencies can happen suddenly, creating a situation in which the everyday, routinely and sometimes dreary existence of a community can become overwhelmed. During crises, the Province requires special procedures to address the needs of emergency response operations and recovery management. To address such emergencies, the Province of Cavite has established a Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Plan (DRRMP), which provides a guideline for the immediate action and operations required to respond to an emergency or disaster. The Province of Cavite has one of the most dynamic and vibrant economy in the Philippines. This could be attributed to several innate and competitive advantages it has compared to other provinces in the country. The crucial question, however, is how the Province can sustain this performance to generate far more jobs and continue to become a destination of choice for investors and tourists alike. The danger of climate change arguably presents a greater threat than what the government sees as its priorities such as education, health and poverty. If sustained growth is to take place, this challenge must be met. Specifically, we need to strengthen disaster resilience, care more for the urban environment, and confront climate change as part of the growth paradigm. In other words, planners should include disaster resilience into its growth strategies and raise the priority of urban management as a strategic thrust. This would ensure that development plans that are viewed to facilitate economic growth are designed in such a way that would attain the desired level of prosperity without sacrificing the needed balance with the environment.
