    Republic of the Philippines Department of Education Regional Office IX, Zamboanga Peninsula 7 Zest for Progress Zeal of Partnership ARTS Quarter 3 - Module 1: Arts and Crafts of Mindanao Name of Learner: ___________________________ Grade & Section: ___________________________ Name of School: ___________________________ WHAT I NEED TO KNOW In this module, you will be learning the different arts and crafts of Mindanao – the salient features of arts of Mindanao by showing the relationship of the elements of arts and processes among the diverse cultural communities in the country. Thus, you will also learn how lines, shapes, forms, value, color, texture and space give more meaning and significance to an artwork. This module will help you explore the arts of people of Mindanao and how animism and the Islamic religion fused together and produced a uniquely Filipino artistic tradition. The arts and crafts of Mindanao include their cultural attire, textiles, tapestries, crafts, accessories and body ornaments which are a combination of designs from indigenous people that resides in the regions and the colorful and rich influence from their indigenous belief system. Most of their crafts are made of materials that are abundant in their areas. Their designs are derived from their surroundings and represent their cultural community. Some are used for religious activities while some have utilitarian functions and even became large industry for them. Even until now, the skills in weaving, sculpting and crafting have been an important part of their community. Thus, these become the people’s way of living and their means of survival. These are passed on from generation to generation.

Bailey1,2,*, U. R. Sumaila1 1Fisheries Economics Research Unit, University of British Columbia, 2202 Main Mall, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z4, Canada 2Present address: Marine Affairs Program, Dalhousie University, Life Sciences Centre, 1355 Oxford Street, Halifax, NS B3H 4R2, Canada ABSTRACT: A simple bioeconomic leader−follower model was constructed to simulate snapper (family Lutjanidae) and grouper (family Serranidae) fisheries in Raja Ampat, Indonesia, an area of significant coral and fish biodiversity. We developed a leader−follower game, wherein the Regency government as the leader chooses an enforcement model to discourage illegal fishing. Fishers are then given a choice to fish using legal gears, such as handlines, or to fish with illegal gears, e.g. dynamite (for snapper) or cyanide (for grouper). Given prices and costs of legal and illegal fishing, the status quo simulations with no Regency enforcement result in a large amount of illegal catch throughout the 50 yr simulation, which agrees with expert opinion that destructive illegal fishing is occurring in the region. In an attempt to include ecosystem-based management principles into Raja Ampat governance, we introduce an enforcement regime in the form of detecting and punishing illegal fishing. Results suggest that current fishing practices do not account for the disproportionate ecosystem effects of destructive fishing, and that elimination of dynamite fishing may be easier for the government due to the high profitability of the live fish trade connected with cyanide fishing.

    81 for the first time and be friendly with people from Galoma in the east, at this port. 'l'here must have been fully 2,000 people asRembled here for about a week in .January, the young men amusing themselves, while the elders were sitting on the verandahs convOI'sing and chewing betel nut on the most friendly terms. The Toaripi people came to port in larger numbers than usual. This is an occasion when there is generally trouble, but this year the trading was conducted in a quiet and friendly manner. Mr. A. C. English, the Govemment Agent at Rigo Station, has done good work in his district. All the Sinaugolo tribe are now at peace with each other and the surrounding tribes. Those of the Rigo village, who scattered during the famine, are now collecting and forming a large village at Gomuridobu, close to the Government station. The Bono people have also joined them there. The Manukolo people are collecting and building a new village. 'I' hey are now at peace with all their neighbours and with the hill tribes. The Balaguaia and Ikoru tribes have also collected and settled down peaceably. The villages of Kelirupu and Tupulamu have been visited for the first time by Mr. English and the constabulary. They are now friendly and peaceful, sending in reports to the Government station when anything goes wrong. Kala and Kwaipo now interchange :friendly visits, as do also Kwaipo and Ganimarupu, Galoma, and Aliba. I have sent messengers from Koapara overland to the Government station. They had to pass through Balaguaia and Ikorn, formerly their deadly foes.
