THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History
ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WAR AND RESISTANCE: THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jon T. Sumida, History Department What happened in the Philippine Islands between the surrender of Allied forces in May 1942 and MacArthur’s return in October 1944? Existing historiography is fragmentary and incomplete. Memoirs suffer from limited points of view and personal biases. No academic study has examined the Filipino resistance with a critical and interdisciplinary approach. No comprehensive narrative has yet captured the fighting by 260,000 guerrillas in 277 units across the archipelago. This dissertation begins with the political, economic, social and cultural history of Philippine guerrilla warfare. The diverse Islands connected only through kinship networks. The Americans reluctantly held the Islands against rising Japanese imperial interests and Filipino desires for independence and social justice. World War II revealed the inadequacy of MacArthur’s plans to defend the Islands. The General tepidly prepared for guerrilla operations while Filipinos spontaneously rose in armed resistance. After his departure, the chaotic mix of guerrilla groups were left on their own to battle the Japanese and each other. While guerrilla leaders vied for local power, several obtained radios to contact MacArthur and his headquarters sent submarine-delivered agents with supplies and radios that tie these groups into a united framework. MacArthur’s promise to return kept the resistance alive and dependent on the United States. The repercussions for social revolution would be fatal but the Filipinos’ shared sacrifice revitalized national consciousness and created a sense of deserved nationhood. The guerrillas played a key role in enabling MacArthur’s return. -

The Filipino People Seethe with Anger and Discontent
May - August 2013 Released by KARAPATAN (Alliance for the Advancement of People’s Rights) he Filipino people seethe with anger and discontent. TThe protest actions that followed the exposé on the PhP10-billion pork barrel scam sent the Aquino government scampering for ways to dissipate the people’s anger, but only in ways that Benigno Simeon Aquino III and the bureaucrats in his government can continue to feast on the pork and drown themselves in pork fat. The people’s anger is not only directed at the 10 billion-peso scam but also against the corruption that goes on with impunity under BS Aquino, who ironically won under an anti-corruption slogan “kung walang kurap, walang mahirap”. The Aquino government could no longer pretend to be clean before the Filipino people. PINOY WEEKLY Neither can it boast of improving the poor people’s lives.

We examine this hypothesis by focusing on the textile and apparel industries in Southeast Asian countries, especially the Philippines, Malaysia, and Thailand. We found that there are two different kinds of value chains in these industries. In one, the lead firms are engaged in chemical fiber production, and, in the other, the lead firms are engaged in fast fashion retailing. The former is a producer-driven chain and the latter is a buyer-driven chain. In Southeast Asian countries today, we find these two different chains. Japanese chemical fiber producers during the 1960s and 1970s represented the former case, and today this type is found among Indian chemical fiber producers such as Reliance Industries, the Indorama group, and the Aditya Birla group. -

The study also provides a glimpse of the patterns of inequality in Mindanao. The results show that there are significant inequalities in opportunities in accessing basic services within and among ethnic groups in the Philippines. -
Part 1:Mall Culture and Brand Awareness Among the Socioeconomic Classes in Metro Manila
Public-Interest Incorporated foundation Research Institute for High-Life Japan-Asia Collaborative Research Project Study report "The New Trends in Asian Urban Lifestyle" "The New Trends in Urban Lifestyle in Manila” (serial in 4 parts) Part 1:Mall culture and brand awareness among the socioeconomic classes in Metro Manila Principal Author: Carlos Luis L. Santos Japanese Language lecturer, Ateneo de Manila University Research field: Comparative Culture of Japan and the Philippines (see reference page for details) Foreword The Republic of the Philippines has a population of around 100 million. Its citizens enjoy a unique lifestyle influenced by a mixture of Asian, Spanish, and American culture. Filipinos also currently view Japan in a positive light. Geographically, it is surrounded by the South China, Celebes, and Philippine seas, and has a land area of around 300,000 square kilometres (around 80% of Japan’s land area). It is an archipelago of more than 7000 islands. Manila, in the National Capital Region of the Philippines, has favourable access conditions as one of the major cities in Asia. Moreover, with over 20 million inhabitants, it is also one of the world’s most populous cities. Nominal GDP in 2012 reached up to 250 billion dollars, an impressive increase of 6.6% compared to the rest of Asia. With the growth of the middle class population, and continuous urban development, Metro Manila is transforming into a comfortable and globalized metropolis. However, the Philippines is also faced with various political, social, and economic problems. The income disparity across the population is large, the high-income class makes up only 1% of the population, the middle-income class comprises around 9%, and the remaining 90% are low-income class. -

Mirror of Beauty: Cultural Values Reflected in Online Skincare Advertising in the Philippines and Taiwan 美麗魔鏡:菲律賓與台灣保養品網路廣告投射之文化價值
Corporate Management Review Vol. 37 No. 2, 2017 pp. 127-158 Mirror of beauty: Cultural values reflected in online skincare advertising in the Philippines and Taiwan 美麗魔鏡:菲律賓與台灣保養品網路廣告投射之文化價值 Chih-Ping Chen1 Discipline of Marketing, College of Management, Yuan Ze University Chih-Hsien Chen Department of Cultural and Creative Industries, National Kaohsiung University of Applied Sciences Anna Marie C. Cañete Department of Information Communication, Yuan Ze University Abstract: As mirrors of culture, advertisements are believed to reflect values relevant to consumers. This research aims to examine whether the cultural values are reflected in online skincare advertisements between countries with different cultural influences and then further investigate what values consumers maintain and shift. Content analyses of online skincare advertisements and in-depth interviews with consumers in the Philippines and Taiwan were conducted in this study. The research focused in particular on how slogan values, brand prominence, and product prominence and context of online skincare advertisements can be manipulated in a strategic way to pass on implicit messages to the receiver. The results highlight that the notion of beauty in online skincare advertisements and the minds of consumers is socially and culturally constructed and its meanings are maintained and changed by social forces and globalized communication of advertising media. Keywords: Cross-culture, cultural values, online skincare advertising, globalization, beauty. 1 Corresponding author: Chih-Ping Chen, Discipline of Marketing, College of Management, Yuan Ze University, No. 135, Yuandong Rd., Zhongli Dist., Taoyuan City 320, Taiwan, E-mail: [email protected]. 128 Mirror of beauty: Cultural values reflected in online skincare advertising in the Philippines and Taiwan 1. -
