General Cimatu is the Secretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources,” the President said in a recorded televised address Monday night after meeting with the Inter-Agency Task Force on the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF). “So I cannot wait for the transmission of communication asking for approval then – that is the bane of bureaucracy, to be honest,” he said. Duterte stressed that Cimatu would have an “adjunct office” under the IATF. He added Cimatu may choose to stay in Cebu City or fly back immediately after giving him a “picture of how grave the situation is.” The President also said Cimatu – in the discharge of his latest duties – may seek help from the Department of Health, Department of the Interior and Local Government, the National Task Force on COVID-19 and even the Armed Forces of the Philippines. “I am sure Cimatu… he cannot solve the problem on his own.

  • The New Manila Sound: Music and Mass Culture, 1990S and Beyond James Gabrillo
    The New Manila Sound: Music and Mass Culture, 1990s and Beyond A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music James Gabrillo Peterhouse, University of Cambridge November 2018 This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other quali- fication at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution. It does not exceed the word limit prescribed by the Degree Committee. "2 of 293" The New Manila Sound: Music and Mass Culture, 1990s and Beyond James Gabrillo Abstract This dissertation provides the first detailed account of the mass musical culture of the Philippines that originated in the 1990s and continues to be the most popular style of musical entertainment in the country — a scene I dub the New Manila Sound. Through a combination of archival research, musical analysis, and ethnographic fieldwork, my ex- amination focuses on its two major pioneers: the musical television programme Eat Bula- ga! (Lunchtime Surprise) and the pop-rock band Aegis. I document the scene’s rise and development as it attracted mostly consumers from the lower classes and influenced oth- er programmes and musicians to adapt its content and aesthetics. The scene’s trademark kitsch qualities of parody, humour, and exaggeration served as forms of diversion to au- diences recovering from the turbulent dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos from 1965 to 1986, when musical works primarily comprised of state-commissioned nationalist an- thems, Western art music, and protest songs.

    ASIAN MEDIA BAROMETER A locally based analysis of the media landscape in Asia THE PHILIPPINES 2011 Published by: Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) Hiroshimastraße 17 10785 Berlin Germany Contact person: Rolf Paasch Berthold Leimbach Media Coordinator Resident Representative Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Philippines Berlin, Germany Manila, Philippines rolf.paasch@fes.de fesphils@fes.org.ph ISBN No. 978-971-535-034-1 CONTENT SECTOR 1: 9 Freedom of expression, including freedom of the media, is effectively protected and promoted. SECTOR 2: 31 The media landscape, including new media, is characterised by diversity, independence and sustainability. SECTOR 3: 49 Broadcasting regulation is transparent and independent; the State broadcaster is transformed into a truly public broadcaster. SECTOR 4: 61 The media practise high levels of professional standards. ASIAN MEDIA BAROMETER THE PHILIPPINES 2011 1 Introduction to the Asian Media Barometer in the Philippines TheAsian Media Barometer (ANMB) is an in-depth and comprehensive description and measurement system for national media environments in Asia. Unlike other press surveys or media indices the ANMB is a local self-assessment exercise based on criteria derived from international standards for media freedom. At the same time the Asian Media Barometer serves as a practical lobbying tool for media organisations. Its results are presented to the public of the respective country with the aim to push and lobby for an improvement of the media situation using international standards as benchmarks. They are then integrated into the advocacy work by the FES-offices and their local partners. Design and method of the Asian Media Barometer (ANMB) have been adapted for Asia from the African Media Barometer (AMB), which is based on homegrown criteria derived from African Protocols and Declarations like the Declaration on Principles on Freedom of Expression in Africa (2002).

    The Advocate The official newsletter of the League of Cities of the Philippines Q1-Q2 2020 2020 Mid-Year COVID-19 Report A rundown of Promoting The LCP City the League’s the welfare of Database response to cities during Project comes COVID-19 the pandemic into its own PAGE 2 PAGE 15 PAGE 21 About the Cover When LGUs in the Philippines assumed the responsibility of providing food aid to their constituents in the early months of the community quarantine, it became regular practice for almost all city governments to share in social media photos of chairs with food packs and sacks of rice along the streets or right outside people’s homes. This method of distribution was a way to minimize contact between LGU frontliners and residents to avoid possible transmission of the coronavirus. It took place at a time when people had no means to secure food and other essentials due to stay-at-home orders of the national government brought by the COVID-19 pandemic. The humble chair came to symbolize the Philippine local government response to the pandemic and the resulting community quarantine. The League chose this as the cover of this special issue as it signifies the commitment of city governments to serve their constituents no matter the circumstances and limitations. The cover pays tribute to the resourcefulness and creativity of local governments to deliver and provide the necessary assistance even in critical moments such as the COVID-19 pandemic—a proof that no adversity, strife, nor calamity, can ever undo their duty so long as their mandate to serve the public remains.
