It is the location ID of De La Salle University-Manila, home to outstanding faculty and students, and birthplace of luminaries in business, public service, education, the arts, and science. And 2401 is the name of the official newsletter of DLSU- Manila, featuring developments and stories of interest about the University. 25 FEBRUARY 2008. VOLUME 39. NUMBER 18. 12 PAGES DLSU-MANILA PREPARES FOR AUN-QA ASSESSMENT see page 3 Faculty delivers paper Field Notes: Search for Star on counter-terrorism 2 The Pursuit of Peace 510Scholars Batch 2008 FACULTY DELIVERS PAPER ON COUNTER-TERRORISM Political Science Department Lecturer Salvador Santino Regilme Jr. delivered a paper titled, “Constructivism in the US-ASEAN Post-9/11 Counter-Terror Engagement” at the 2008 Ateneo-Harvard Project for Asian International Relations (HPAIR) National Conference last January 26 and 27. Regilme discussed in the paper how the United States institutionalized various restructuring initiatives on its own defense and security establishments after the materialization of the 9/11 Tragedy. He added that Washington extended its counter-terror efforts in Southeast Asia, which he explained is dubbed as the second front on the war on terrorism. However, he argues in the paper that considering the chaotic security situation in the Middle East and South Asia, the Southeast Asian-based counter-terror projects of the United States are only temporal in nature and are deemed to be in a trend of being diverted to other more unstable regions of the world. The annual HPAIR National Conference is an avenue that aims to bring together undergraduate student leaders and some of the recognized names in business and politics today.

  • The Submission
    August 24, 2011 Professor Juan Méndez U.N. Special Rapporteur on Torture c/o Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights United Nations Office at Geneva CH-1211 Geneva 10 Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] Dear Professor Méndez: We represent Melissa Roxas, who was abducted in the Philippines in May 2009 and brutally tortured over a period of six days. Substantial evidence collected despite the military’s obstruction suggests the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) detained and tortured Ms. Roxas as part of its counterinsurgency campaign, which has been responsible for a staggering number of documented human rights abuses.1 To date, Ms. Roxas’s abductors have not been held accountable. In July 2009, Ms. Roxas returned to the Philippines to testify before the Court of Appeals and submitted an urgent appeal to then-Special Rapporteur Professor Manfred Nowak, to which the Philippine government has not responded. The Court of Appeals subsequently found that Ms. Roxas was in fact abducted, detained, and tortured,2 adding new urgency to Ms. Roxas’s efforts to hold her abductors accountable. In addition, President Benigno Aquino took office on June 1 Ms. Roxas’ experience, in which she was kidnapped and tortured by the AFP while performing human rights work, is not isolated. Rather, it typifies the pattern of abductions, forced disappearances, torture, extra-judicial killings, and other human rights violations committed under the presidency of Gloria Macapagal Arrroyo. Reports issued by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Extra-Judicial Killings Philip Alston, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and Karapatan have all concluded that the AFP has systematically carried out politically-motivated executions, abductions, torture and arrests against unarmed civilians and human rights activists like Ms.

  • Indo-Pacific Strategy Report
    This page left intentionally blank THE DEPARMENT OF DEFENSE Indo-Pacific Strategy Report Preparedness, Partnerships, and Promoting a Networked Region June 1, 2019 The estimated cost of this report or study for the Department of Defense is approximately $128,000 for the 2019 Fiscal Year. This includes $18,000 in expenses and $110,000 in DoD labor. Generated on 2019June01 RefID: 0-1C9F36A MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE he Indo-Pacific is the Department of Defense’s priority theater. The United States is a Pacific nation; we are linked to our Indo-Pacific neighbors through unbreakable bonds of shared history, culture, commerce, and T values. We have an enduring commitment to uphold a free and open Indo- Pacific in which all nations, large and small, are secure in their sovereignty and able to pursue economic growth consistent with accepted international rules, norms, and principles of fair competition. The continuity of our shared strategic vision is uninterrupted despite an increasingly complex security environment. Inter-state strategic competition, defined by geopolitical rivalry between free and repressive world order visions, is the primary concern for U.S. national security. In particular, the People’s Republic of China, under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party, seeks to reorder the region to its advantage by leveraging military modernization, influence operations, and predatory economics to coerce other nations. In contrast, the Department of Defense supports choices that promote long-term peace and prosperity for all in the Indo-Pacific. We will not accept policies or actions that threaten or undermine the rules-based international order – an order that benefits all nations.

  • "0.4 Lilj. -2 Fit3 28
    THIRTEENTH CONGRESS OF THE REPUBLIC ) OF THE PHILIPPINES 1 "0.4 LilJ.-2 fit3 28 First Regular Session ) SENATE S. NO. -I282 Introduced by Senator Biazon EXPLANATORY NOTE Republic Act No. 7227 created the Bases Conversion Development Authority (BCDA) in order to accelerate the sound and balanced conversion into alternative productive uses of the former US. Bases, Clark and Subic and their extensions, to raise funds by the sale of portions of Metro Manila military camps, ! and to apply said funds as provided herein for the development and conversion to productive civilian use of the lands covered under the 1947 Military Bases Agreement between the Philippines and the United States of Americas, as amended. Thus, the law provided that the largest share from the net proceeds of the sale of former military bases should fund the AFP Modernization program As mandated in Republic Act No. 7898, the funds for the modernization of the Armed Forces of the Philippines may be generated through the sale, lease or joint ventures of portions of military reservations and lands. The share of the AFP in BCDA controlled areas under RA 7229 is limited only to the net proceeds of the actual sale and it is not proportionate to its stake, considering that it is the custodian and owner of these properties. In 1997, revenues generated by the BCDA from the sale of former military camps reached P6.617 billion, mostly from the Fort Bonifacio project. This brings to P25.869 billion the total amount of revenues from such sales remitted by BCDA to the National Treasury since 1993.
