The guidance of divine God points the way. Follow in His name to the Holy Grail of righteous victory!”3 With these words, MacArthur fulfilled his pledge. The liberation of the Philippines had begun. In the prelude to the landing, MacArthur had pressured Osmeña to join him on his return to the Philippines. He argued that otherwise, Osmeña’s prestige would suffer. Osmeña did not feel much for MacArthur’s plan. The Philippine president feared that if he were to go with MacArthur, he might find himself under his direct control, without a clear understanding of his own powers and responsibilities.4 He was already warned by another U.S. official that there would be no place for him during the liberation, as the Philippines would be under military command. But Osmeña felt like he had no other choice: “My place is in the invasion. Otherwise the Filipinos will say, ‘Where is our government? Where is our president?’ They might think I was afraid.”5 During the Leyte landing and the liberation, MacArthur completely overshadowed Osmeña. MacArthur was in charge of the liberation, and while he was at the center of attention and

  • FOURTEENTH CONGRESS of the . T ~~~.~~~~~~~
    FOURTEENTH CONGRESS OF THE 1 11. REPUBLIC OF THE PEULIPPINES ) i pC'[ -9 I> i . t ..~4 First Regular Session 1 SENATE ~~~.~~~~~~~UY :.-. INTRODUCED BY SENATOR ANTONIO F. TRILLANES AND SENATOR MAR ROUS EXPLANATORY NOTE It has been observed that a number of major streets in Metro Manila have been renamed in honor of past presidents of the country, namely, Manuel L. Quezon, Jose P. Laurel, Manuel A. Roxas, Elpidio Quirino and Ramon Magsaysay. Be that as it may, there is no major street in this premier metropolis that has been named or a monument of substance built in honor of General Emilio Aguinaldo, the President of the First PhiIippine Republic. President Aguinaldo, whose presidency was inaugurated on June 12, 1898 in Kawit, Cavite, remains to be unappreciated and underrepresented especially in matters that can exalt him for his unprecedented leadership. Considering that we are celebrating the 1 anniversary of First Philippine Republic next year (2008), it is a propitious time to give honor to the distinguished Filipino who was one of the leaders who signed the Pact of Biak-na-Bat0 and was the president of the Supreme Council of the Biak-na-Bat0 Republican Government, and who also led the resistance against the American imperialist forces. This bill, therefore, seeks to give due recognition to the valor and statesmanship of General Aguinaldo by renaming Circumferential Road 5 (from SLEX to Commonwealth Avenue), located in Metro Manila, as Emilio Aguinaldo Avenue. The role of Aguinaldo, the military leader of the Republic, is entitled to a "long-delayed place of honor" in the national pantheon of heroes.

Colin Minor Filipino Guerilla Resistance to Japanese Invasion in World War II At approximately 8:00 pm on March 11, 1942, General Douglas MacArthur, commander of the United States Army Forces in the Far East, along with his family, advisors, and senior officers, left the Philippine island of Corregidor on four Unites States Navy PT (Patrol Torpedo) boats bound for Australia. While MacArthur would have preferred to have remained with his troops in the Philippines, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Army Chief of Staff George Marshall foresaw the inevitable fall of Bataan and the Filipino capital of Manila and ordered him to evacuate. MacArthur explained upon his arrival in Terowie, Australia in his now famous speech, The President of the United States ordered me to break through the Japanese lines and proceed from Corregidor to Australia for the purpose, as I understand it, of organizing the American offensive against Japan, a primary objective of which is the relief of the Philippines.

  • The Philippine Council for Sustainable Development: Like Cooking Rice Cakes
    THE PHILIPPINE COUNCIL FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: LIKE COOKING RICE CAKES BY ESTER C. ISBERTO September 1998 TABLE OF CONTENTS I. Establishment and Organization............................................................................2 II. Emergence of the PCSD in the Development of a National Agenda 21 ................2 III. Accomplishments and Activities .........................................................................4 IV. General Assessment .............................................................................................6 I. Establishment and Organization It has long been a source of pride for the Philippine government that Manila was among the first to take action on its commitments to the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED). On Sept. 15, 1992, barely three months after the Rio Summit, then President Fidel Ramos created the Philippine Council for Sustainable Development (PCSD). The Council was to be the key mechanism for fulfilling the Philippines’ pledge to implement Global Agenda 21, UNCED’s program of action for promoting sustainable development. When it was established, the PCSD was unique in that its counterparts in other countries were government-dominated bodies with little participation by non-government or people’s organizations (NGOs or POs). By contrast, the Philippine model gave strong representation to NGO/PO members (over a third of the council’s 34 members). Though government representatives can easily outvote their non-governmental counterparts, the PCSD’s practice of making decisions on the basis of consensus effectively gives the NGO and PO representatives influence on the mainstream of government policy-making. In retrospect, this factor should have come as little surprise, given the Philippines’ recent history. NGOs and POs emerged from the long years of the Marcos regime as influential pressure groups pursuing various causes in the country’s restored democracy.

  • Legitimacy and the Political Elite in the Philippines
    Legitimacy and the Political Elite in the Philippines REMIGIO E. AGPALO Legitimacy is vitally important and indispensable to the political elite because without it their government will be vulnerable to political turmoil or revolution; conducive to coup d'etat or rebellion, or at least promotive of a feeling of alienation on the part of the people. Since the political elite will not want to have a coup d'etat against themselves, fan the flames of political turmoil, rebellion, or revolution in their domain, or promote the aiienation of the people -any one of these spells disaster to thems~::lves or at least instability of their rule-·- the political elite will strive to develop the legitimacy of their government. The political elite of various political systems, however, do not have the same problem of legitimacy. 1 The problem of legitimacy may be caused by the lack of charisma of the political elite. In other cases, they are new men in traditional societies who have replaced traditional leaders. In a few states, where the laws are highly institutionalized, the political elite have violated the legal and rational rules of the regime. In several Third World new nations, the political elite came to power by means of coup d'etat or revolution. Some went beyond their normal terms of office after a proclamation of martial law, a state of siege, or a state of national emergency, thus disrupting or changing the normal activities of political life. This paper attempts to shed light on the problem of legitimacy of the political elite in the Philippines.

Having been granted independence in 1946, the nominally sovereign Republic of the Philippines remained inextricably linked to the US through restrictive legislation, military bases, and decades of political and socio-economic patronage. In America’s closest developing world ally, and showcase of democratic values, Filipino President Ferdinand Marcos installed a brutal dictatorship in 1972, dramatically marking the end of democracy there.

  • Transnational Bataan Memories
    TRANSNATIONAL BATAAN MEMORIES: TEXT, FILM, MONUMENT, AND COMMEMORATION A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN AMERICAN STUDIES DECEMBER 2012 By Miguel B. Llora Dissertation Committee: Robert Perkinson, Chairperson Vernadette Gonzalez William Chapman Kathy Ferguson Yuma Totani Keywords: Bataan Death March, Public History, text, film, monuments, commemoration ii Copyright by Miguel B. Llora 2012 iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank all my committee members for helping me navigate through the complex yet pleasurable process of undertaking research and writing a dissertation. My PhD experience provided me the context to gain a more profound insight into the world in which I live. In the process of writing this manuscript, I also developed a deeper understanding of myself. I also deeply appreciate the assistance of several colleagues, friends, and family who are too numerous to list. I appreciate their constant support and will forever be in their debt. Thanks and peace. iv ABSTRACT This dissertation is a study of the politics of historical commemoration relating to the Bataan Death March. I began by looking for abandonment but instead I found struggles for visibility. To explain this diverse set of moves, this dissertation deploys a theoretical framework and a range of research methods that enables analysis of disparate subjects such as war memoirs, films, memorials, and commemorative events. Therefore, each chapter in this dissertation looks at a different yet interrelated struggle for visibility. This dissertation is unique because it gives voice to competing publics, it looks at the stakes they have in creating monuments of historical remembrance, and it acknowledges their competing reasons for producing their version of history.
