    NumberJournalNineteof Philippineen, VolumeDeveloXI, No.pment1, 1984 A STUDY OF THE IMPACT OF THE PHIVIDEC INDUSTRIAL ESTATE Fernando C Fajardo I. INTRODUCTION Past and recent trends in Philippinenationaldevelopment strong- ly indicate wide disparitiesor imbalances in regional development. In 1975, for example, Luzon which has47 percentof the landareaand 54 percent of the population accounted for 65 percent of the total goodsand servicesproduced in the country. The Visayas area, which has 19 percent of the land area and 24 percent of the population shared19 percentof the total output of the country. Mindanao, with 34 percent and 22 percent of the land area and population, re- spectively, contributed only 16 percent of the country's output. The highestconcentration of development has been in the Metro Manila area which in 1975 showed a per capita income of _=3,988 (at 1972 prices). Visayasand Mindanao could only account for an equivalent of 33 percent and 30 percent respectively of Metro Manila's per capita income. To promote balance in regional development, the Philippine gov- ernment launched the policy of dispersalof industries.To encourage industriesto go to the countryside, the strategy of developingindus- trial estatesin the different regionsof the country wasadopted using the experience of the export processingzone in Bataan. With this background, the PHIVIDEC Industrial Estate in Misamis Oriental wascreated.

    COOPERATIVES ALL OVER THE COUNTRY GOING THE EXTRA MILE TO SERVE THEIR MEMBERS AND COMMUNITIES AMIDST COVID-19 PANDEMIC: REPORTS FROM REGION 10 #CoopAgainstCOVID19 Region 10 Cooperatives Countervail COVID-19 Challenge CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY - The challenge of facing life with CoViD-19 continues. But this emergency revealed one thing: the power of cooperation exhibited by cooperatives proved equal if not stronger than the CoVID-19 virus. Cooperatives continued to show their compassion not just to ease the burden of fear of contracting the deadly and unseen virus, but also to ease the burden of hunger and thirst, and the burden of poverty and lack of daily sustenance. In Lanao del Norte, cooperatives continued to show their support by giving a second round of assistance through the Iligan City Cooperative Development Council (ICCDC), where they distributed food packs and relief goods to micro cooperatives namely: Lambaguhon Barinaut MPC of Brgy. San Roque, BS Modla MPC, and Women Survivors Marketing Cooperative. All of these cooperatives are from Iligan City. In the Province of Misamis Oriental, the spirit of cooperativism continues to shine through amidst this pandemic. The Fresh Fruit Homemakers Consumer Cooperative in Mahayahay, Medina, Misamis Oriental extended help by distributing relief food packages to their members and community. The First Jasaan Multi-Purpose Cooperative provided food assistance and distributed grocery items to different families affected by Covid 19 in Solana, Jasaan, Misamis Oriental. Meanwhile, the Misamis Oriental PNP Employees Multi- Purpose Cooperative initiated a gift-giving program to the poor families of San Martin, Villanueva, Misamis Oriental. Finally, the Mambajao Central School Teachers and Employees Cooperative (MACESTECO) in Mambajao, Camiguin distributed rice packs and relief items to their community.

Judith B. Felisilda, Shaira Julienne C. Asequia, Jhane Rose P. Encarguez, and Van Ryan Kristopher R. Galarpe* Department of Environmental Science and Technology, College of Science and Mathematics, University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines *Corresponding author: [email protected] Received: March 9, 2018; Accepted: June 18, 2018 ABSTRACT Dumping of solid waste and unstable coastal water quality has become a rising issue in the Philippines coastal zones. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate two coastal municipalities’ (Opol and Jasaan) perception towards coastal waters (CW) and solid waste management (SWM) along Macajalar bay, Philippines. Sociodemographic indicators of the 180 residents and how this influenced their level of knowledge-awareness-practices (KAP) towards CW and SWM were determined using modified survey questionnaire. Purposive sampling was employed to communities residing adjacent to coastal waters. Both quantitative (One-Way ANOVA and T-test for unequal variances at α-0.05) and qualitative analyses were utilized to extrapolate conclusions. Present findings revealed varying sociodemographic indicators influencing KAP. Opol coastal residents level of knowledge and practices were influenced by gender (K:p-0.0314; P:p- 0.0155) and age (p- 0.0404), whereas level of awareness was influenced by age (p- 0.0160), length of residency (p- 0.0029), and educational attainment (p-0.0089).
