The Educational Thoughts of Carlos Bulosan Paz Verdades M Santos/Susan Evangelista 109 EDITOR'S NOTE Non-government organizations or NGOs are back in the limelight. They played a major role in EDSA II; they were instrumental in shaping public opinion and in mobilizing various forces which constituted the core of the protesters. The same is true for EDSA III, which some would rather call a reaction. The NGOs that supported Joseph Estrada created an upheaval that nearly toppled the newly formed Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo presidency. The pro-Estrada NGOs and ur­ ban poor organizations also produced the warm bodies of the masa in the failed Malacafiang attack. N GOs, regardless of their loyalty or their independence and regardless of their rivalry, have shown that they are a powerful force that can shake the Philippine political landscape. EDSA II and EDSA III-and for that matter, EDSA I, have demonstrated the role of NGOs in making or unmaking governments. On the other hand, controversies and scandals involving NGOs have emerged before and after EDSAll. The more embarrassing controversies have not only ex­ posed the bad NGOs but have tarnished the image of the whole NGO community and can possibly diminish the credibility and legitimacy of NGOs. It is against this background that interest in NGOs is growing. The University of the Philippines is one of a few academic institutions that have undertaken pio­ neering efforts in studying NGOs. In Diliman, the College of Social Sciences and Philosophy, the National College of Public Administration and Governance, and the College of Social Work and Development have courses and/or programs on NGOs and the non-profit sector. There are similar programs in the other Univer­ sity of the Philippines campuses. Research centers-the Third World Studies Center and the Center for Inte­ grative and Development Studies, among others-have consistently promoted stud­ ies and discourses about the NGOs, the broader civil society and the movements for social change. Other prestigious educational institutions have also embarked on strengthen­ ing their programs relating to NGOs and the social movement. Ateneo de Manila University and other Jesuit institutions have built academic programs as well as research offices and support groups that cater to NGOs and people's organiza­ tions. De La Salle University has begun to undertake NGO advocacy through its Institute of Governance. The Asian Institute of Management and the University of Asia and the Pacific, aside from offering courses suited to the non-profit sector, are involved in policy advocacy in collaboration with other civil society groups. In the same vein, we see a steady growth in the literature about NGOs, civil society and their interaction with the state. We can expect more scholarly publica­ tions on this subject to come out soon. The Ateneo de Manila Press has led the way in publications. Soon to be off the press are books authored by Jose J. Magadi a on "state-society dynamics," in which NGOs and other civil society groups figure prominently, and by Dorothea Hilhorst, which focuses on NGO dynamics in the Cordillera region. It is high time Public Policy addressed the NGO phenomenon. This issue of Public Policy aims to contribute to the enrichment of the discourse on NGOs, civil society and development. The contributors-Fernando T. Aldaba, Edna E.A. Co, Ramon L. Fernan III and Isagani R. Serrano-are all scholars in their own right, as academics or as "public intellectuals." Equally important, they are NGO practitio­ ners, boasting of solid track records which span a generation of active involvement in social and political movements. What they write on the issue of NGOs thus carries a lot of weight. The contributions to this volume address what the authors consider to be the critical issues and challenges that face NGOs and the larger civil society. An afterword from the editor completes the collection of essays on NGOs. Hopefully, these es­ says will capture the interest, if not provoke the minds, of the readers of Public Policy, who for better or for worse, are affected by the increasing intervention of NGOs in public life. !WBLIC JULY- DECEMBER 2002 YOLICY VOLUME 6 NUMBER 2 Doing Good and Being Good: Aspects of Development NGO Governance in the Philippines1 FERNANDO T ALDABA Cood Covernance as a Key Development Issue Good governance is a strategic factor for sustainable human development. For the past two decades, mainstream economists have been pushing for market re­ forms like trade liberalization and privatization to foster greater competition and to enhance growth in many developing economies. While economic growth and de­ velopment have accelerated in certain areas of the global economy, i.e. East Asia, sustained human development remains an elusive dream for many countries in the third world. While market reforms are indeed important, there are other key prob­ lems confronting the developing nations- corruption, ineffective bureaucracy, rent seeking, patronage politics, authoritarianism, etc. All these issues redound to weak Aldaba and ineffective governance which continue to plague the said countries. Today, aside from market reforms, various sectors of society including multi-lateral and bilateral aid agencies call for governance and institutional reforms so that sustain- able human development can be achieved . .. governance In many ways, governance has always been a key has always development issue. Governance is broadly defined as been a key "an exercise of political, economic and administrative development authority to manage a nation's affairs"(UNDP 1997). Furthermore, governance transcends the state and in­ ISSUe cludes both the private sector and civil society. How- ever, most recent studies on governance focus on the public and corporate sectors, examining both institutions from the lens of trans­ parency, accountability, participation, efficiency, equity, sustainability, legitimacy and integrity- all important characteristics of good governance (World Bank 2000 and UNDP 1997). In the case of the Philippines, current literature on public sector governance has focused on topics that include decentralization, corruption, fiscal manage­ ment and civil society participation. There are also emerging

  • Cruising Guide to the Philippines
    Cruising Guide to the Philippines For Yachtsmen By Conant M. Webb Draft of 06/16/09 Webb - Cruising Guide to the Phillippines Page 2 INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world after Indonesia, with around 7,000 islands. Relatively few yachts cruise here, but there seem to be more every year. In most areas it is still rare to run across another yacht. There are pristine coral reefs, turquoise bays and snug anchorages, as well as more metropolitan delights. The Filipino people are very friendly and sometimes embarrassingly hospitable. Their culture is a unique mixture of indigenous, Spanish, Asian and American. Philippine charts are inexpensive and reasonably good. English is widely (although not universally) spoken. The cost of living is very reasonable. This book is intended to meet the particular needs of the cruising yachtsman with a boat in the 10-20 meter range. It supplements (but is not intended to replace) conventional navigational materials, a discussion of which can be found below on page 16. I have tried to make this book accurate, but responsibility for the safety of your vessel and its crew must remain yours alone. CONVENTIONS IN THIS BOOK Coordinates are given for various features to help you find them on a chart, not for uncritical use with GPS. In most cases the position is approximate, and is only given to the nearest whole minute. Where coordinates are expressed more exactly, in decimal minutes or minutes and seconds, the relevant chart is mentioned or WGS 84 is the datum used. See the References section (page 157) for specific details of the chart edition used.

  • The Ideology of the Dual City: the Modernist Ethic in the Corporate Development of Makati City, Metro Manila
    bs_bs_banner Volume 37.1 January 2013 165–85 International Journal of Urban and Regional Research DOI:10.1111/j.1468-2427.2011.01100.x The Ideology of the Dual City: The Modernist Ethic in the Corporate Development of Makati City, Metro Manila MARCO GARRIDO Abstractijur_1100 165..185 Postcolonial cities are dual cities not just because of global market forces, but also because of ideological currents operating through local real-estate markets — currents inculcated during the colonial period and adapted to the postcolonial one. Following Abidin Kusno, we may speak of the ideological continuity behind globalization in the continuing hold of a modernist ethic, not only on the imagination of planners and builders but on the preferences of elite consumers for exclusive spaces. Most of the scholarly work considering the spatial impact of corporate-led urban development has situated the phenomenon in the ‘global’ era — to the extent that the spatial patterns resulting from such development appear wholly the outcome of contemporary globalization. The case of Makati City belies this periodization. By examining the development of a corporate master-planned new city in the 1950s rather than the 1990s, we can achieve a better appreciation of the influence of an enduring ideology — a modernist ethic — in shaping the duality of Makati. The most obvious thing in some parts of Greater Manila is that the city is Little America, New York, especially so in the new exurbia of Makati where handsome high-rise buildings, supermarkets, apartment-hotels and shopping centers flourish in a setting that could well be Palm Beach or Beverly Hills.

A hundred and twenty-one years has passed since our forefathers bound their fates, their lives and their fortunes to proclaim the independence of the Filipino people. It was the most significant event in our country’s history. Not only did we put an end to more than three centuries of subservience but we also resolved to determine the course of our own destiny as a nation. But the freedom we achieved back then was not without cost. The tree of liberty blossomed on these lands because it was nourished by the sweat and blood or our patriots, heroes and martyrs. Let us commit ourselves to ensure that their sacrifices have not been in vain and that their dream of a truly independent Philippines - whose people live freely in a secure, stable and prosperous society - will be achieved within our lifetimes. May we have a solemn and meaningful observance.
