THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History
ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WAR AND RESISTANCE: THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jon T. Sumida, History Department What happened in the Philippine Islands between the surrender of Allied forces in May 1942 and MacArthur’s return in October 1944? Existing historiography is fragmentary and incomplete. Memoirs suffer from limited points of view and personal biases. No academic study has examined the Filipino resistance with a critical and interdisciplinary approach. No comprehensive narrative has yet captured the fighting by 260,000 guerrillas in 277 units across the archipelago. This dissertation begins with the political, economic, social and cultural history of Philippine guerrilla warfare. The diverse Islands connected only through kinship networks. The Americans reluctantly held the Islands against rising Japanese imperial interests and Filipino desires for independence and social justice. World War II revealed the inadequacy of MacArthur’s plans to defend the Islands. The General tepidly prepared for guerrilla operations while Filipinos spontaneously rose in armed resistance. After his departure, the chaotic mix of guerrilla groups were left on their own to battle the Japanese and each other. While guerrilla leaders vied for local power, several obtained radios to contact MacArthur and his headquarters sent submarine-delivered agents with supplies and radios that tie these groups into a united framework. MacArthur’s promise to return kept the resistance alive and dependent on the United States. The repercussions for social revolution would be fatal but the Filipinos’ shared sacrifice revitalized national consciousness and created a sense of deserved nationhood. The guerrillas played a key role in enabling MacArthur’s return. -

Social Ethics Society Journal of Applied Philosophy Special Issue, December 2018, pp. 181-206 The Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism (PCIJ) and ABS-CBN through the Prisms of Herman and Chomsky’s “Propaganda Model”: Duterte’s Tirade against the Media and vice versa Menelito P. Mansueto Colegio de San Juan de Letran [email protected] Jeresa May C. Ochave Ateneo de Davao University [email protected] Abstract This paper is an attempt to localize Herman and Chomsky’s analysis of the commercial media and use this concept to fit in the Philippine media climate. Through the propaganda model, they introduced the five interrelated media filters which made possible the “manufacture of consent.” By consent, Herman and Chomsky meant that the mass communication media can be a powerful tool to manufacture ideology and to influence a wider public to believe in a capitalistic propaganda. Thus, they call their theory the “propaganda model” referring to the capitalist media structure and its underlying political function. Herman and Chomsky’s analysis has been centered upon the US media, however, they also believed that the model is also true in other parts of the world as the media conglomeration is also found all around the globe. In the Philippines, media conglomeration is not an alien concept especially in the presence of a giant media outlet, such as, ABS-CBN. In this essay, the authors claim that the propaganda model is also observed even in the less obvious corporate media in the country, disguised as an independent media entity but like a chameleon, it © 2018 Menelito P. -

FERNANDEZ The Philippine press system evolved through a history of Spanish colonization, revolution, American colonization, the Commonwealth, independence, postwar economy and politics, Martial Law and the Marcos dictatorship, and finally the Aquino government. Predictably, such a checkered history produced a system of tensions and dwel- opments that is not easy to define. An American scholar has said: When one speaks of the Philippine press, he speaks of an institution which began in the seventeenth century but really did not take root until the nineteenth century; which overthrew the shackles of three governments but became enslaved by its own members; which won a high degree of freedom of the press but for years neglected to accept the responsibilities inherent in such freedom. -

Philippines: Reports of Corruption and Bribery
Home > Research > Responses to Information Requests RESPONSES TO INFORMATION REQUESTS (RIRs) New Search | About RIR's | Help 24 August 2006 PHL101564.E Philippines: Reports of corruption and bribery within the police force; government response; frequency of convictions of members of the police force accused of criminal activity (2004 - 2006) Research Directorate, Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada, Ottawa The Report on the Transparency International Global Corruption Barometer 2004 revealed that Filipinos considered the police to be the most corrupt institution or sector in their country (TI 9 Dec. 2004, 11). The following year, the police dropped to second place in the ranking of corrupt institutions as perceived by the public, behind political parties and the legislature, which tied for first place (ibid. 9 Dec. 2005, 18). Starting in 2000, surveys of efforts made by public and private agencies to combat corruption were conducted by the Quezon City- based non-profit social research organization, Social Weather Stations (SWS n.d.). The results indicated that the Philippine National Police (PNP) received a "bad" rating in 2005, a rating it retained in 2006 (Manila Standard 7 July 2006; The Manila Times 8 July 2006). Both Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and the chief director of the PNP, Edgar Aglipay, have acknowledged that corruption is a problem within the police force (Philippines 17 July 2003; INQ7 3 Jan. 2005; Manila Standard 11 Dec. 2004). In a 2003 statement, President Arroyo called police corruption a "serious problem" that was negatively affecting national security (Philippines 17 July 2003), while Aglipay remarked that "persistent allegations" of police corruption were contributing to a "crisis of confidence" within the force (INQ7 3 Jan. -
The Republic of the Philippines and U.S. Interests--2014
The Republic of the Philippines and U.S. Interests—2014 Thomas Lum Specialist in Asian Affairs Ben Dolven Specialist in Asian Affairs May 15, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R43498 The Republic of the Philippines and U.S. Interests—2014 Summary The United States and the Republic of the Philippines maintain close ties stemming from the U.S. colonial period (1898-1946), the bilateral security alliance bound by the Mutual Defense Treaty of 1951, and common strategic and economic interests. In the past decade, the Philippines has been one of the largest recipients of U.S. foreign assistance in Southeast Asia, including both military and development aid. Many observers say that U.S. public and private support to the Philippines following Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan), which struck the central part of the country on November 8, 2013, bolstered the already strong bilateral relationship. Although the United States closed its military bases in the Philippines in 1992, the two sides have maintained security cooperation. Joint counterterrorism efforts, in which U.S. forces play a non- combat role, have helped to reduce Islamist terrorist threats in Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago in the southern Philippines. During the past year, Washington and Manila have held discussions on the framework for an increased, non-permanent U.S. military presence in the Philippines. Since 2012, the Philippines has played a key role in the Obama Administration’s “rebalancing” of foreign policy priorities to Asia, particularly as maritime territorial disputes between China and other claimants in the South China Sea have intensified.

The Philippines Remains at High Risk of Atrocity Crimes Due to President Duterte’S Anti-Drug War Operations
Philippines Asia Pacific Regional Outlook, May 2018 Philippines -Very High Risk/Ongoing Atrocity Crimes The Philippines remains at high risk of atrocity crimes due to President Duterte’s anti-drug war operations. Martial law in Mindanao was extended for a year after its expiration end of December 2017 as a result of continuing threats from ISIS-affiliated local extremists. The Philippines’ decision in March to withdraw as a state party to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court has serious and negative implications for future atrocity prevention and is a clear setback. The decision does not, however, affect the Court’s jurisdiction over atrocity crimes submitted prior to the country’s withdrawal. The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) took over the anti-drug war from the Philippine National Police (PNP) in October 2017, contributing to a significant decrease in killings involving civilians. In his first 100 days since taking over as head of the PDEA in September, Aaron Aquino reported zero deaths in 3,476 drug-related operations, which resulted in 1,321 arrests and seizure of over $200 million worth of drugs by end of December 2017. [1] Although the police forces were brought back in December as part of the PDEA operations, the number drug related killings are likely to remain low given certain changes in the anti-drug operations involving the police. In January, the PNP announced that anti-drug police operations in coordination with the PDEA will only be conducted during daytime and on weekdays, focus on high-value targets (drug pushers instead of users), require policemen to wear body cameras, and will include human rights officers or civil society advocates as part of the team.[2] Despite the new strategy adopted by the PNP, some 65 people were killed as of 14 February according to a lawyer’s group against EJKs.[3] However, a US State Department drug official said that he is cautiously optimistic about the improvement in human rights in the Philippines as he noted that the trend in drug-related killings has been declining. -

Hellfire: Charred Lives and Burning Resolve of the Kentex Tragedy
Hellfire: Charred Lives and Burning Resolve of the Kentex Tragedy The Kentex Tragedy It was not only the searing memories of screaming voices and flashing flames that awakened Terrence King Ong, the operations manager of Kentex Manufacturing Corporation, in the Philippines, who was hospitalized with third-degree burns after the May 13, 2015, fire at his factory. It was grief for his son, Tristan, who died while helping workers escape.1 He grieved as well for the employees who did not make it out. Indeed, his imaginings of their unanswered pleas for help made him break down in tears. He humbly appealed to the public, “Please forgive me. Give me another chance.”2 At least 72 people died in the fire, dozens were injured, and another dozen were listed as missing. The aftermath was grim (see Exhibit 1).3 The tragedy was not unprecedented. In 1975, a wig factory burned down and killed 42 workers in Manila, the capital of the Philippines.4 The worst case recorded in the country was the Ozone Disco fire in a Manila suburb, which claimed 150 lives in 1996.5 Exhibit 1 Published by WDI Publishing, a division of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan. © 2015 Liberty I.
