  • 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.

  • Maria Alexandra Iñigo Chua. Kirial De Baclayon Año 1826: Hispanic Sacred Music in 19Th Century Bohol, Philippines
    Perspectives in the Arts and Humanities Asia 5.2 (2015): 110–139 Maria Alexandra Iñigo Chua. Kirial de Baclayon año 1826: Hispanic Sacred Music in 19th Century Bohol, Philippines. Quezon City, Ateneo de Manila University Press, 2010. 184 pages. With accompanying CD. Historical musicology in the Philippines has grown in the past decade with the emergence of new music scholars. Maria Alexandra Iñigo Chua is one of them. Her pioneering study on the cantorales or choir books of the major churches in Bohol, particularly Baclayon and Loay, has uncovered a previously untapped facet of colonial music that is deeply rooted in the religious practices of the Catholic Church. Kirial de Baclayon año 1826: Hispanic Sacred Music in 19th Century Bohol, Philippines is a valuable study of masses, of which a few were putatively locally composed, including the Missa Baclayana. Most of the masses presumably originated from Spain and were copied by hand by an anonymous escriviente de solfa or church scribe of Baclayon Church in the nineteenth century. These masses and a few other sacred pieces were compiled in a book, the Kirial de Baclayon, which is now preserved at the Ecclesiastical Museum of the Baclayon Church. The size of the book and the expensive materials (including carabao hide) used in its making suggest the significant place that singing occupied in church activities in Bohol during the Spanish colonial era. Of interest is the Kirial’s use of square and diamond neumes on a five-line staff for notation, a method quite different from the ones adopted by the Benedictine Abbey monks of Solesmes in France in the nineteenth century and published in the Liber Usualis.

Throughout the country, however, there are many cultural heritage sites that are yet unknown in Japan. Today, there are three World Cultural Heritage sites and three World Natural Heritage sites in the Philippines. They include churches in reflection of the history of one of the few countries in Asia where Christians, especially Catholics com- prise the majority among other religious groups. To acquire an understanding of the state of little known cultural heritage and activities for its protection, the Japan Consortium for International Cooperation in Cultural Heritage conducted a study on international coopera- tion in cultural heritage in the Philippines in February 2013.

ÖZET Filipin takımadalarının en büyük Dünya’nın ise 17’nci en büyük adası olan Luzon, Filipin Cumhuriyetinin en çok nüfus, en çok sanayi tesisi, en çok liman, en çok tarım arazisi, en çok orman alanı ve en çok turizm merkezi barındıran adasıdır. Bu nedenle hem tarım ve sanayi, hem ulaşım ve ticaret, hem de enerji ve turizm bakımından Luzon, gelişmekte olan bu ülkenin adeta iktisadi ve beşeri lokomotifidir. Bu araştırmada Luzon Adası’nın coğrafi konumu ve fiziki coğrafya özellikleri açıklandığı gibi doğal turizm çekicilikleri ve doğa koruma alanları da kısaca ele alınmıştır. Çalışmada bir yandan adanın başlıca turistik doğal merkezler irdelenmiş, diğer yandan da adanın turizm kaynakları ve turizm potansiyeli resmedilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada hem adanın başlıca milli parkları, volkanları, şelaleleri, akarsuları, körfezleri, plajları, gölleri ve mağaraları hem de jeomorfolojik, ekolojik ve hidrografik turizm çekicilikleri örnekler verilerek irdelenmiştir.
