  • Diaspora Philanthropy: the Philippine Experience
    Diaspora Philanthropy: The Philippine Experience ______________________________________________________________________ Victoria P. Garchitorena President The Ayala Foundation, Inc. May 2007 _________________________________________ Prepared for The Philanthropic Initiative, Inc. and The Global Equity Initiative, Harvard University Supported by The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation ____________________________________________ Diaspora Philanthropy: The Philippine Experience I . The Philippine Diaspora Major Waves of Migration The Philippines is a country with a long and vibrant history of emigration. In 2006 the country celebrated the centennial of the first surge of Filipinos to the United States in the very early 20th Century. Since then, there have been three somewhat distinct waves of migration. The first wave began when sugar workers from the Ilocos Region in Northern Philippines went to work for the Hawaii Sugar Planters Association in 1906 and continued through 1929. Even today, an overwhelming majority of the Filipinos in Hawaii are from the Ilocos Region. After a union strike in 1924, many Filipinos were banned in Hawaii and migrant labor shifted to the U.S. mainland (Vera Cruz 1994). Thousands of Filipino farm workers sailed to California and other states. Between 1906 and 1930 there were 120,000 Filipinos working in the United States. The Filipinos were at a great advantage because, as residents of an American colony, they were regarded as U.S. nationals. However, with the passage of the Tydings-McDuffie Act of 1934, which officially proclaimed Philippine independence from U.S. rule, all Filipinos in the United States were reclassified as aliens. The Great Depression of 1929 slowed Filipino migration to the United States, and Filipinos sought jobs in other parts of the world.

  • A Transformed Judiciary*
    Chapter 1 A Transformed Judiciary* It is great to be home once again in this super University! My first speaking appearance at the Far Eastern University (FEU) Auditorium was some 50 years ago -- to be exact, 48 years ago in 1957 -- when as a young sophomore law student, I delivered my inaugural address as president of the FEU Central Student Organization. Thank you, FEU, for that invigorating memory, that exhilarating experience of heading the student body of the then largest educational institution in our country. Thank you also to two super ladies -- Dr. Lourdes Reyes-Montinola, chairperson of the FEU Board of Trustees; and Dr. Lydia B. Echauz, FEU president – who, along with super law Dean Andres D. Bautista, the perennial leader of the Philippine Association of Law Deans, are responsible for FEU’s generous co-sponsorship of this tenth lecture in the Chief Justice Hilario G. Davide Jr. Distinguished Lecture Series. As some of you may know, this intellectual pursuit is one of several projects being held nationwide all year round to commemorate the many outstanding achievements of the Supreme Court during the seven-year term of our beloved Chief.[1] Ladies and gentlemen, Hilario G. Davide Jr. will be remembered in history as one of the greatest Chief Justices not only in our country, but also in the Asia-Pacific region. I am certain that whenever a history of the judiciary in our part of the world is written, he will always merit a sparkling chapter. Back in 1999 when I wrote Leadership by Example, just after his appointment as the “Centennial” or even “Millennial” Chief Justice, I already had an intimation of his impending renown.

  • Their Nexus in Gawad Kalinga Communities of the Philippines
    TOURISM, HOUSING AND COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION: THEIR NEXUS IN GAWAD KALINGA COMMUNITIES OF THE PHILIPPINES Rowena Santos Delgado Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2014 Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning The University of Melbourne Produced on Archival Quality Paper Dedication To travellers around the world, especially those who visited the Philippines and helped its people. Abstract This thesis explores the relationship between tourism and housing in the development of poor communities in the Philippines, arguing that tourism can be made more sustainable when a participatory approach to housing delivery is integrated in plans and policies for tourism development. Although the centrality of community participation in the sustainability of tourism has been established in existing research, participatory housing processes were not overtly incorporated as an essential component in tourism. Literature on sustainable tourism lacks an exploration of participatory housing processes in addressing problems that develop from mass tourism such as social displacement and alienation. Utilising social capital as theoretical framework, this thesis investigates how community participation in housing influences their capacity to participate in the sustainability of tourism. To demonstrate the relationship between participatory housing and sustainable tourism with particular focus on poor communities located in tourism regions, a case study on the bayanihan approach to housing provision by the Gawad Kalinga Community Development (GK) organisation in the Philippines was undertaken. Bayanihan, which is a traditional practice of participation motivated by philanthropy and nationalism, has been employed by GK in the simultaneous building of new communities and also the development of tourism.
