  • Aileen SP Baviera
    Tribute Aileen S.P. Baviera: Thinker, Teacher, (Track-Two) Soldier, “Spy”1 Herman Joseph S. Kraft Aileen San Pablo Baviera passed away on March 21, 2020 after having contracted COVID-19. She had just come back from Paris, having attended a conference that discussed the security situation in the Asia-Pacific region. Her attendance to the conference, in the midst of an emerging pandemic, is illustrative of her dedication in advocating the importance of cooperative security in maintaining international security, and the role played by experts, scholars, and academics in the processes involved in sustaining it. Her loss goes beyond her family, friends, and colleagues as it affects an entire cross- boundary undertaking directed at avoiding interstate conflict and seeking resolution to international disputes without resorting to the use of force. Aileen’s academic development included being a visiting scholar to China as she took advantage of one of the first exchange programs opened to Filipinos. Aside from learning Chinese culture and history, she was provided access to training in the Chinese language. Indeed, this background led to strongly-held suspicions within some circles in the Philippines that she was well-disposed toward China. Yet, even as China fascinated her, she learned not to be enthralled by it. The Tiananmen Square protests in 1989 cured her of any romanticism she might have harbored about China, if indeed there were any (Baviera 2019). Looking back a few decades later, her writings revealed her 165 PhilippinePhilippine JournalJournal ofof PublicPublic Policy: Interdisciplinary DevelopmentDevelopment PerspectivesPerspectives (2020) (2020) skepticism about China’s self-projection. She noted that China, under Xi Jinping, has shown “little inclination to make the compromises and sacrifices that lasting regional leadership entails” (Baviera 2016a).

  • Chapter 3 from Balancing to Appeasement: President Duterte's Untangling of the Aquino Administration's Geo-Political Agenda
    37 Chapter 3 From Balancing to Appeasement: President Duterte’s Untangling of the Aquino Administration’s Geo-Political Agenda in the South China Sea Renato Cruz De Castro Since 2011, former President Benigno Aquino III pursued a balancing policy on China’s expansive claim in the South China Sea. He challenged Chinese maritime expansion by shifting the AFP’s focus away from domestic security to territorial defense, bolstering closer Philippine-U.S. security relations; acquiring American military equipment; seeking from Washington an explicit security guarantee under the 1951 Mutual Defense Treaty (MDT); and promoting a strategic partnership with Japan. In late April 2014, the Philippines signed the 2014 Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) with its strategic ally—the U.S. Designed to constrain Chinese maritime expansion in the South China Sea, the agreement allowed American forces a strategic footprint in Southeast Asia through rotational presence in Philippine territory. By strengthening the country’s security relations with the U.S. and Japan, the Philippines got involved again in a traditional geo-political game among the great powers in East Asia. President Rodrigo Roa Duterte, however, is determined on undoing former President Aquino’s geo-political agenda in the South China Sea. Less than three months in office and after the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) land-mark award to the Philippines in its territorial row with China in the South China Sea, President Duterte launched a charm offensive to earn Chinese goodwill. He downplayed the South China Sea dispute in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit meeting in Laos.

  • THE SPRATLY ISLANDS DISPUTE: DECISION UNITS and DOMESTIC POLITICS CHRISTOPHER CHUNG a Thesis Submitted to the University Of
    THE SPRATLY ISLANDS DISPUTE: DECISION UNITS AND DOMESTIC POLITICS CHRISTOPHER CHUNG A thesis submitted to the University of New South Wales in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2004 DECLARATION I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma at UNSW or any other educational institution, except where due acknowledgement is made in the thesis. Any contribution made to the research by colleagues, with whom I have worked at UNSW or elsewhere, during my candidature, is fully acknowledged. I also declare that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work, except to the extent that assistance from others in the project’s design and conception or in style, presentation and linguistic expression is acknowledged. Christopher Chung i ABSTRACT This thesis presents a cross-national, cross-regime examination of foreign policy decision-making in the Spratly Islands dispute, focusing on China, Malaysia and the Philippines. It argues that how and why these countries have acted in particular ways towards the dispute relates to the relationship among foreign policy decision-making, government behaviour and domestic politics. The theoretical foundation of the study is foreign policy analysis. It applies the decision units approach advanced by Margaret and Charles Hermann and Joe Hagan to investigate who made foreign policy decisions on the Spratly Islands dispute in the three countries during the period 1991-2002, and how this influenced government behaviour.

  • Air Quality Significantly Improving; Earth Healing Itself Due to Quarantine
    STRATEGIC BANNER COMMUNICATION UPPER PAGE 1 EDITORIAL CARTOON STORY STORY INITIATIVES PAGE LOWER SERVICE March 24, 2020 PAGE 1/ 2 DATE TITLE : Air cleans up amid breakdown Air quality significantly improving; earth healing itself due to quarantine Published March 25, 2020, 4:42 PM By Ellalyn De Vera-Ruiz The sudden drastic slowdown in activities in the Philippines and other countries due to the COVID-19 pandemic is allowing the earth to heal itself from environmental degradation. Environment Secretary Roy A. Cimatu (RTVM / MANILA BULLETIN) In a statement on Wednesday, Secretary Roy Cimatu of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) said that the major cause of climate change, which is air pollution mainly due to industrial and transport- related carbon emissions, is being abated significantly. He also highlighted the reduced volume of waste in public places because people are in strict home quarantine while factories, offices, buildings and businesses like restaurants are closed. Air quality in the metropolis has improved substantially in recent days, with Metro Manila and Luzon having been placed under enhanced community quarantine measures to combat the COVID-19 outbreak, Cimatu said. The air quality information system of the DENR’s Environment Management Bureau (EMB) reported a significant drop in the concentration of particulate matter (PM) in Metro Manila’s air quality based on the results gathered from air monitoring stations in the cities of Las Piñas, Marikina, Muntinlupa, and Parañaque. Particulate matter is an indicator of air pollution. PM10 is 10 micrometers or less in diameter, while PM2.5 is finer or 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter.
