    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.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ScholarSpace at University of Hawai'i at Manoa Obsidian Sourcing at Ulilang Bundok Site and its Implications for Mobility, Exchange, and Social Contexts in the Philippine Metal Age STEPHEN CHIA, LEEE ANTHONY M. NERI, AND AMALIA DE LA TORRE introduction What is commonly known as the “Metal Age” of the Philippines and throughout Island Southeast Asia is viewed as a critical period of transition between small-scale Neolithic farming communities of the third millennium to early first millenniumb.c. and the historically recorded emergence of centralized polities with archaeological evidence for social complexity and trade networks involving exotic goods stretching into mainland Asia and beyond by the late first millenniuma.d. (Andrews and Glover 1986; Bronson 1992; Bulbeck 2007; Bulbeck and Prasetyo 2000; Lloyd-Smith and Cole 2010). Much of the archaeological work on this time period in the Philippines has focused on burial sites, including often spectacularly artistic jar burials (often with anthropomorphic features) and inhumation burials with regional stylistic embellish- ments ( Dizon 1979; Dizon and Santiago 1996; Dizon et al. 2011; Fox and Evange- lista 1957; Kurjack et al. 1971; Tenazas 1974). These varying types of elaborate burials are typically accompanied by elaborately embellished rare or exotic goods such as nephrite or jade ornaments, bronze ornaments and implements, and glass beads (al- most certainly traded from outside the archipelago), as well as highly decorated earth- enware forms, gold-leaf ornaments, iron objects, rare shells, polished stone adzes, and obsidian (which could have been either extracted and modified within the Philippine archipelago or obtained from long-distance sources).

  • The Archaeology of Karaang Jasaan
    Vol. XXXVII 1 ARTICLES The Archaeology Of Karaang Jasaan Leee Anthony M Neri, Andrea Malaya Ragragio, Maria Elena Wright, Agnes Paulita R Roa, Armand Salvador B Mijares, Thea Kersti Tandog Abstract The University of the Philippines – Archaeological Studies Program (UP- ASP) conducted an archaeological survey along the coast of Misamis Oriental in 2007 and 2008. Forty-one archaeological sites have been identified and reported to the National Museum of the Philippines. One of these historical sites identified was in Karaang Jasaan, Sitio Cota, Barangay Aplaya, Municipality of Jasaan. The Karaang Jasaan Site is a Spanish Complex. Local people believed that the said complex was composed of an old church with a hexagonal belfry, municipal hall, and a cemetery. In 2010, an extensive archaeological excavation and historical research were conducted at the said site. Reconstruction of the site complex was based on the evidence of archaeological excavations and material culture. The Karaang Jasaan Site has a single nave with one main entrance and two subsidiary entrances at the lateral side of the church. It has a hexagonal belfry and a rectangular courtyard. Further from the courtyard was a 2-story convent used by the parish priest. The Karaang Jasaan Site was the original settlement of the people of Jasaan before they were transferred to the present location by the Jesuits ca. 19th century CE. Based on 2 The Archaeology of Karaang Jasaan Archaeological data and archival research, the site may have been inhabited as early as 18th century until the 20th century CE. The municipality of Jasaan is one of the important Spanish historical sites found along the coast of Misamis Oriental.

  • Flash Floods
    Information bulletin n° 2 Philippines: GLIDE n˚ FL-2009-000011-PHL 22 January 2009 Flash floods This bulletin is being issued for information only. A cold front and continuous rains from 7-12 January 2009 caused flash floods, landslides, and sea surges in large areas of the country, affecting some 329,0451 people. The Philippine National Red Cross Society (PNRCS), with support from the International Federation, has responded by undertaking assessments to identify numbers of people affected and needs, as well as to begin the delivery of relief assistance and arrange temporary shelters. The PNRCS has determined that external assistance is not required at this time, and is therefore not presently seeking funding or other assistance from donors. <view contact information> The Situation The Philippines, particularly prone to natural disasters, has been experiencing weather disturbances in recent days. The tail-end of a cold front affecting the Bicol region and eastern sections of Visayas and Mindanao from 7- 12 January 2009 triggered the occurrence of continuous rains which caused flash floods, flooding, landslides and sea surges in some areas of the country. Severely affected by the brunt of the continuous rains were the cities of Cagayan de Oro and Gingoog, and the provinces of Misamis Oriental and Northern Samar. At the same time, high tides with big waves struck in Aringay, La Union, Surigao City; Siargao Island, Bucas Grande Island and Dinagat Island in Surigao del Norte Province, Surigao del Sur, Agusan del Norte, Agusan del Sur, Compostela Valley and Davao del Norte. It is important to note that Cagayan de Oro City, Misamis Oriental and Gingoog City have not experienced any floods since 1950s till now; therefore, creating additional challenges for local coping and response capacities.
