  • Mano Po: Chinoys in Philippine Pop Movies By: Charles Chua and Talizta Ang
    Mano Po: Chinoys in Philippine Pop Movies By: Charles Chua and Talizta Ang Way back in 2002, a local film released around Christmas time won the hearts of moviegoers all over the country. This film then proceeded to garner an accumulation of several awards, honors and commendations because of its deep cultural references and implications. This film was Mano Po, a heavily political movie with a drama plot that supposedly gives a glimpse of the Chinese, Chinese Filipino and Filipino communities and their problems in coexisting with one another, primarily because of the differences in culture that no amount of compromise can ever seem to mend. These clashes in culture were popular with movie-goers and inevitably spawned several sequels. The original Mano Po is the story of the affluent Go clan and its “black sheep” Richelle. As she strains against the bonds of Chinese tradition that keep her from what she truly wants, she becomes intertwined in a series of events that puts the reputation of her clan and its Filipino political relations in peril. Narrowly escaping with her life after the ordeal, the lessons learned by her family members pushes the clan to reexamine their priorities and ultimately turn over a new leaf in their lifestyles. Like the original, the first sequel was met with much success. The next movie in the series, Mano Po 2: My Home, is a completely new story about a rich Chinese businessman with three separate wives. His untimely demise, however, only heightens the already immense tensions that have been present among the ladies for so long.

  • Aktivismus in Der <Em>Original Pilipino Music</Em>
    Aktivismus in der Original Pilipino Music Raimund Marasigan von der Band Eraserheads © Chris Linag, wikimedia CC BY- SA 3.0) Philippinen: Politische Themen in der Musik ziehen sich durch die jüngere Landesgeschichte. Entsprechende Songs – inspiriert durch persönliche Erfahrungen und/oder der Kritik an den Herrschenden – entfalten in ihrem jeweiligen Kontext besondere Wirkung. Musik ist eine Sprache, die jede*r versteht, spricht und die keine Hürden kennt. Dennoch wird manchmal übersehen, dass die Lyrics eines Liedes eine bestimmte Geschichte erzählen möchten und damit auf etwas aufmerksam machen, wie etwa die politischen Missstände eines Landes. Songs der Original Pilipino Music (OPM) sind dafür gute Beispiele. Die Songwriter*innen äußern meist gesellschaftliche Kritik gegenüber vorherrschenden politischen Zuständen. Dabei wird meist in einer versteckten, kreativen Art und Weise politischer Aktivismus gelebt. An verschiedenen Beispielen – älteren Liedern aus der Zeit des Kriegsrechts unter Marcos wie auch aktuellen Werken der OPM oder Musika ng Pilipinas – soll das gezeigt werden. Lieder, die die Filipin@s ihre Landesgeschichte nicht vergessen lassen Dies soll zunächst an den drei verschiedenen OPM-Liedern Saranggola Ni Pepe, Handog Ng Pilipino Sa Mundo oder Bayan Ko veranschaulicht werden. Sie haben alle Eines gemeinsam: sie wurden in einer Phase in der philippinischen Geschichte geschrieben, in der Repression, politische Unterdrückung und Widerstandslosigkeit Alltag war – und zwar während des landesweiten Martial Law, des Kriegsrechts von 1972 bis 1981. Diese Lieder und vor allem die Lyrics wirkten mit ihren versteckten politischen Botschaften wie eine Waffe gegen die gesellschaftlichen Unruhen und politische Unterdrückung. Saranggola Ni Pepe Ein vielfach von Musikwissenschaftler*innen oder Historiker*innen interpretiertes Lied ist Saranggola Ni Pepe.
