    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.

    The Filipino Ringside Community: National Identity and the Heroic

    THE FILIPINO RINGSIDE COMMUNITY : NATIONAL IDENTITY AND THE HEROIC MYTH OF MANNY PACQUIAO A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication, Culture and Technology By Margaret Louise Costello, B.A. Washington, DC April 30, 2009 THE FILIPINO RINGSIDE COMMUNITY : NATIONAL IDENTITY AND THE HEROIC MYTH OF MANNY PACQUIAO Margaret Louise Costello, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Mirjana Dedaic, PhD ABSTRACT One of the main parallels between sport and national identity is that they are both maintained by ritual and symbolism. In the Philippine context, the spectator sport of boxing has grown to be a phenomenon in recent years, perhaps owing to the successive triumphs of contemporary Filipino pugilists in the international boxing scene. This thesis focuses on the case of Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao whose matches bring together contemporary Philippine society into a “ringside community”, a collective united by its support of a single fighter bearing the brunt for the nation. I assert that Pacquiao’s stature has transcended that of the sports realm, as he is constructed as a national (i.e., not just sport) hero. As such, I study this phenomenon in two ways. The first part of my analysis focuses on how a narrative of heroism has been instilled in Philippine society through the active promotion of its past heroes. Inherent to this study’s discussion of the Filipino ringside community and heroism is the notion of the habitus. Defined by Pierre Bourdieu as a set of inculcated dispositions which generate practices and perceptions, “a present past that tends to perpetuate itself into the future by reactivation in similarly structured practices” (Bourdieu, 6), the concept of habitus can be directly applied to how the need for a heroic narrative has been inculcated within Philippine contemporary society.

  • Imprinting Andres Bonifacio: the Iconization from Portrait to Peso

    Imprinting Andres Bonifacio: the Iconization from Portrait to Peso

    Imprinting Andres Bonifacio: The Iconization from Portrait to Peso The face of the Philippine revolution is evasive, just like the freedom that eluded the man known as its leader. (Photo courtesy of Mr. Jim Richardson.) The only known photograph of Andres Bonifacio is housed in the Archivo General de Indias in Seville, Spain. Some say that it was taken during his second wedding to Gregoria de Jesus in Katipunan ceremonial rites. It is dated 1896 from Chofre y Cia (precursor to today’s Cacho Hermanos printing firm), a prominent printing press and pioneer of lithographic printing in the country, based in Manila. The faded photograph, instead of being a precise representation of a specific historical figure, instead becomes a kind of Rorschach test, liable to conflicting impressions. Does the picture show the President of the Supreme Council of the Katipunan as a bourgeois everyman with nondescript, almost forgettable features? Or does it portray a dour piercing glare perpetually frozen in time, revealing a determined leader deep in contemplation, whose mind is clouded with thoughts of waging an armed struggle against a colonial power? Perhaps a less subjective and more fruitful avenue for investigation is to compare and contrast this earliest documented image with those that have referred to it, or even paid a curious homage to it, by substantially altering his faded features. This undated image of Bonifacio offers the closest resemblance to the Chofre y Cia version. As attested to by National Scientist Teodoro A. Agoncillo and the National Historical Commission of the Philippines, it is the image that depicts the well-known attribution of Bonifacio being of sangley (or Chinese) descent.
  • Facts About Rizal

    Facts About Rizal

    Facts about Rizal It sounds absurd but there are people who are spreading statements that Adolf Hitler of Germany and Mao Zedong of China were sons of Jose Rizal. This is absolutely a hoax. Monuments in honor of Jose Rizal were erected in various parts of the world like Madrid, Spain; Wilhelmsfeld, Germany; Jinjiang, Fujian, China; Chicago, Cherry Hill Township, San Diego, Seattle, U.S.A.; Mexico City, Mexico; Lima, Peru; Litomerice, Czech Republic; and Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Three animal species were named after Rizal; Draco rizali, a species of flying dragon, Rachophorous rizali, a species of toad and Apogonia rizali, a beetle species. Rizal's statue in Jinjiang, Fujian, China is enshrined in a 5-hectare park built and named in his honor. The monument made of the world-famous Jinjiang granite stones, stands 18.61 meters high, taller than the 12- meter high Rizal statue in Luneta An exact replica of the Manila monument of the Philippines’ national hero Jose Rizal is built at the heart of this southern Chinese city, It also stands as a remembrance to his great, great grandfather, Domingo Lamco of Zhang-Guo province, who was once a resident and citizen of this great land. Construction of the monument began in 2002. Rizal Shrine was inaugurated on Jan. 23, 2003 in Siongque Village, Jinjiang City, Fujian Province, China. The shrine was built to commemorate Dr. Rizal’s Chinese ancestral roots. It symbolizes the strong bond of friendship between the Philippines and China The national hero is the direct descendant of Chinese trader Cua Yi Lam, who immigrated from Siongque ("Zhang-Guo" in Mandarin Chinese) to the Philippines in the later part of the 17th century.

    REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES SUPREME COURT MANILA En Banc G.R. No. 213948 KNIGHTS OF RIZAL Petitioner - versus - DMCI HOMES, INC. ET AL. Respondents MEMORANDUM FOR DMCI PROJECT DEVELOPERS, INC. To love one’s city, and have a part in its advancement and improvement, is the highest privilege and duty of a citizen. – Daniel H. Burnham, architect and master planner of Manila REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES SUPREME COURT MANILA En Banc KNIGHTS OF RIZAL, Petitioner, - versus - G.R. No. 213948 DMCI HOMES, INC. ET AL., Respondents. MEMORANDUM Private respondent DMCI Project Developers, Inc. (“DMCI-PDI”), by counsel, respectfully states: Prefatory In December 1913, the Jose Rizal National Monument (“Rizal Monument”) was erected on the Luneta as a tomb and a memorial to Jose Rizal. Since its creation in 1907 as the model entitled Motto Stella up to the present, more than a century hence, it has been mired in controversy. The stat- ue of Rizal was criticized as a poor depiction of the national hero, dressed like a European in an ill-fitting overcoat, while the monument itself, according to the Official Gazette web- site, “shies away from magnificence. It does not tower, there are no ornate details, no grandiose aesthetic claims.”1 For decades after its installation until 1961, it stood alone in an empty field. Then the Knights of Rizal, petitioner in this case (“petitioner”), successfully lobbied for the building of a Rizal Memorial Cultural Center at the back of the monument, which was never built. But a towering steel shaft that reached more than 30 meters was installed on the monument, until it was removed two years later after widespread censure.
