UP School of Economics Discussion Papers Discussion Paper No. 2021-02 July 2021 Don’t let a “good” crisis go to waste: One-upmanship in local responses to the COVID-19 pandemic by Julian Thomas B. Alvareza, Jahm Mae E. Guintoa,b, Joseph J.

Don’t let a “good” crisis go to waste: One-upmanship in local responses to the COVID-19 pandemic Julian Thomas B. Alvareza, Jahm Mae E. Guintoa,b, Joseph J. Capunob† aAsian Development Bank bUniversity of the Philippines Abstract Unlike in previous crises, the COVID-19 pandemic has wrought a crisis affecting all population groups, all economic sectors and all jurisdictions in the Philippines, as elsewhere. The impact of the COVID-19 vary across localities, however, partly due to differences in local government responses to the pandemic. Our objective is to examine the patterns in the types and timing of local responses among neighboring local government units (cities) for evidence of one- upmanship among their incumbent leaders (mayors). We assembled data for 25 selected cities and then grouped them into 28 neighborhood clusters. Using three indicators, we measure the immediacy, primacy and distinctiveness of the local responses within each cluster over the period March 2020-March 2021. Of the 28 clusters, we find in 19 (67.9 percent) evidence of one- upmanship consistent with the view that the type and timing of local responses are driven by mayors who wish to signal their talents and abilities. -

Hellfire: Charred Lives and Burning Resolve of the Kentex Tragedy
Hellfire: Charred Lives and Burning Resolve of the Kentex Tragedy The Kentex Tragedy It was not only the searing memories of screaming voices and flashing flames that awakened Terrence King Ong, the operations manager of Kentex Manufacturing Corporation, in the Philippines, who was hospitalized with third-degree burns after the May 13, 2015, fire at his factory. It was grief for his son, Tristan, who died while helping workers escape.1 He grieved as well for the employees who did not make it out. Indeed, his imaginings of their unanswered pleas for help made him break down in tears. He humbly appealed to the public, “Please forgive me. Give me another chance.”2 At least 72 people died in the fire, dozens were injured, and another dozen were listed as missing. The aftermath was grim (see Exhibit 1).3 The tragedy was not unprecedented. In 1975, a wig factory burned down and killed 42 workers in Manila, the capital of the Philippines.4 The worst case recorded in the country was the Ozone Disco fire in a Manila suburb, which claimed 150 lives in 1996.5 Exhibit 1 Published by WDI Publishing, a division of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan. © 2015 Liberty I. Nolasco. This case was written by Liberty I. Nolasco, Assistant Professor of the Management and Organization Department at Ramon V. del Rosario College of Business at De La Salle University in the Philippines. This case was prepared as the basis for class discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of a situation. -
