  • Pork Barrel” Scandal
    Philippines’ Commission on Audit (CoA) Key to Unearthing “Pork Barrel” Scandal October 2016 INTRODUCTION The “pork barrel system” of lump sum grants to members of the Philippines Congress to fund a list of community- based or small-scale infrastructure projects that would be implemented by local public agencies was revived during President Corazon Aquino’s administration. The system operated under a series of programs, most recently through the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF). How did the PDAF work in its most recent form? During congressional budget deliberations, a list of development projects was included in the General Appropriations Act (GAA) as eligible for funding under the PDAF. A lump sum was appropriated for the projects to be implemented by various agencies. Up until 2013, each Senator was allocated PHP 200 million (about US$4.4 million), while each member of the House of Representatives was allocated PHP 70 million (about US$1.5 million). In practice, the implementing agencies (IAs) served as conduits that diverted the funds to several bogus NGOs. The NGOs were offered as fronts for “ghost projects” by a businesswoman in exchange for kickbacks to members of Congress and government officials. This case became known as the pork barrel scam. Two unrelated investigations in 2012, one by the National Bureau of Investigations (NBI) and the other by the Commission of Audit (CoA), shed light on the misuse of PDAF by members of Congress, government officials, and NGOs. The NBI conducted an investigation on the illegal detention of Benhur Luy by his employer, businesswoman Janet Napoles, at the same time that CoA was conducting its own audit of the use of the PDAF resources for the years 2007-2009.1 Approved by the previous CoA chairperson, this audit started in 2010 and took over three years from planning and execution to release of the report.

El primer gol puede decidir tanto el ritmo de juego como alterar las tácticas dispuestas por los entrenadores o la implicación y el estado de ánimo de los jugadores. Repetir el éxito de conseguir el primer gol en más partidos además refleja una dinámica de equipo muy positiva. De todas formas, quien marca primero, aunque tiene un alto porcentaje de victoria, no tiene todavía la certeza de llevarse los tres puntos. El rival tiene un margen de reacción según el tiempo que quede de juego y en ello se centra la emoción del fútbol. El equipo que sea capaz de rentabilizar mejor su primer gol y además tenga mayor capacidad de reacción cuando lo reciba en contra reúne todos los requisitos para ser campeón de Liga. El que marca el primer gol gana en 66,59% de los casos.

  • Child Participation in the Philippines
    Child Participation in the Philippines: Reconstructing the Legal Discourse of Children and Childhood by Rommel Salvador A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science Faculty of Law University of Toronto © Copyright by Rommel Salvador 2013 Child Participation in the Philippines: Reconstructing the Legal Discourse of Children and Childhood Rommel Salvador Doctor of Juridical Science Faculty of Law University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This thesis explores the participation of children within legal discourse by looking at how laws and policies engage or disengage children. The basic premise is that to understand children’s participation is to confront the discourse of children and childhood where we uncover underlying assumptions, interests and agendas that inform our conception of who the child is and what the experience of childhood entails. Specifically, the thesis examines child participation within the Philippine legal framework by looking at the status, conditions and circumstances of children in four contexts: family, educational system, work environment and youth justice system. It argues that our conceptions of children and childhood are not only produced from a particular discourse but in turn are productive of a particular construction and practices reflected in the legal system. In its examination, the thesis reveals a complex Philippine legal framework shaped by competing paradigms of children and childhood that both give meaning to and respond to children’s engagements. On the one hand, there is a dominant discourse based on universal patterns of development and socialization that views children as objects of adult control and influence. But at the same time, there is some concrete attraction to an emerging paradigm ii influenced by childhood studies and the child rights movement that opens up opportunities for children’s participation.

Currently, media- tion appears to be the frontrunner for domestic resolutions. It is applied to a wide variety of conflicts, including labor-management negotiations, community dis- putes, school conflicts, and marital problems. Moreover, there is evidence-from China, Taiwan, India, Britain, Australia, Japan, and Turkey-indicating that med- iation is being utilized worldwide.2 When applied worldwide to a variety of conflicts, mediation assumes diverse forms.
