  • Commentary Language Variation As Issue to The
    COMMENTARY LANGUAGE VARIATION AS ISSUE TO THE NEGROS ISLAND REGION Enrique G. Oracion Language variation within the island of Negros has geographic and historico-political reasons. The extent of the areas where the Ilonggo and Cebuano languages were spoken was not the past basis for the political division of Negros Island into Oriental and Occidental. The current changes in its geographic conditions, however, favor spatial movements and cultural contacts. This paper outlines the argument for the one-island region against the issue of language differences which was a convenient reason to resist the proposal. Instead, it asserts that cultural understanding and cooperation as needed in development work should be seen as other valid goals for the merger of the two provinces being situated in one island. Keywords: Language variation, cultural isolation and division, geographic division, Negros Island Region, Visayan Introduction Several studies reveal interesting perspectives on how language variations or differences result to success or failure in social interaction. Some of the issues include how immigrants can integrate into their newly adopted country (Fisher 2012), withstand role conflict and ambiguity in the workplace (Madera et al.), and relate with a diversity of people (Preston 2013), one of the reasons for which is the absence of a common language. Generally, people engaged in international trading prefer to deal with people with whom they have a common language to hasten their transactions (Lohmann 2011). In some instances, tensions erupt with the indigenous settlers who want to secure their entitlements to certain resources, particularly when new settlers AghamTao, 2015, Volume 24:165-177 166 Language variation and the Negros one island region are perceived as threats and more aggressive.

Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA)-7 Regional Director Nanette Villamor-Dinopol said that since shipping fares are affordable, most human traffickers use such route to transport their victims. “We have already coordinated with various ship owners to undertake necessary measures like checking the identification card and the identity of suspicious persons What's in your bag?

  • Philippines 2020 Human Rights Report
    PHILIPPINES 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Philippines is a multiparty, constitutional republic with a bicameral legislature. President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, elected in May 2016, began his constitutionally limited six-year term in June 2016. Midterm elections in May 2019 for 12 (of 24 total) senators, all congressional representatives, and local government leaders were seen as generally free and fair, despite reports of violence and vote buying. The ruling party and allies won all 12 Senate seats and maintained an approximately two-thirds majority in the 306-seat House of Representatives. Barangay (village) and youth council elections originally scheduled for 2021 were rescheduled for December 5, 2022, so that local and national elections would occur in the same year. The Philippine National Police is charged with maintaining internal security in most of the country and reports to the Department of the Interior. The Armed Forces of the Philippines (armed forces), which reports to the Department of National Defense, is responsible for external security but also carries out domestic security functions in regions with a high incidence of conflict, particularly the Mindanao region. The two agencies share responsibility for counterterrorism and counterinsurgency operations. The national police Special Action Force is responsible for urban counterterrorism operations. Governors, mayors, and other local officials have considerable influence over local police units, including appointment of top departmental and municipal police officers and the provision of resources. The government continued to support and arm civilian militias. The armed forces controlled Civilian Armed Force Geographical Units, while Civilian Volunteer Organizations fell under national police command. These paramilitary units often received minimal training and were poorly monitored and regulated.

Atty. Mona Liza Arriba-Juarez of the CDA- Central Office disclosed that over a thousand individuals representing various federations, unions, primary cooperatives and cooperative development councils participated in the consultations held in all regions throughout the country. Arriba-Juarez presented the summary of the outcome of the regional consultations conducted by the CDA. She said that majority of the participants support the establishment of an apex organization of cooperatives and have articulated their recommendations regarding the organization’s powers and functions, sources and administration of funds, membership requirements, and other aspects of the organization. CDA Administrator Mercedes Castillo, however, noted that an apex organization of cooperatives can exist through self- organization among the cooperatives themselves. Pleased with the positive outcome of the regional consultations conducted by the CDA, Rep. Geron said it will provide the Committee a useful reference in crafting a piece of legislation that will either amend existing laws or craft a new one, all for the benefit of the cooperative sector.
