Report date April 2006-September 2006 Report No. (HYR HYR #2 1/2/3/4) Project website 1. Outline progress over the last 6 months (April – September) against the agreed baseline timetable for the project Key accomplishments during the period April-September 2006 were as follows: 1. Biological surveys completed and priority sites selected and mapped. Biological surveys were completed in two more key areas during this period, namely Barangay Anibawan in Aluyon and Sitio Litid, Barangay Lipata in Panukulan. Full technical reports on these surveys are being prepared and will be summarised in future reports. A preliminary ‘marine resource assessment’ was completed in September by four scientists from the UK NGO, Coral Cay Conservation (CCC), assisted by PIBCFI personnel. This project was prompted by recommendations arising from earlier surveys, and involved rapid assessments of coral cover, and coral and fish diversity, in 12 discrete sites in coral reefs fringing Polillo and Burdeos Municipalities. Results indicate that over-fishing, especially cyanide and dynamite fishing, remains a serious problem in most areas, though areas of good to excellent reef cover, and high species diversity and abundance were confirmed in fish sanctuaries established and managed by local communities in some areas. Findings and recommendations arising from this project and the earlier surveys will now be used to develop new project funding proposals intended to extend these surveys, conduct awareness campaigns and assist implementation of relevant conservation management interventions in selected, highest priority areas.

  • WILDLIFE LAW ENFORCEMENT ACTION PLAN (Wildleap) 2018-2028
    WILDLIFE LAW ENFORCEMENT ACTION PLAN (WildLEAP) 2018-2028 MESSAGE The Department of Environment and Natural Resources is committed to push for people-centered agenda in pursuit of environmental protection and sustainable development. It shall continue to institute reforms, and pursue programs and projects that would truly protect the environment and improve people's lives. The formulation of the Wildlife Law Enforcement Action Plan (WildLEAP) 2018-2028 through a multi-stakeholder consultation process is one such measure designed to assure the involvement of all concerned sectors in this gargantuan task to combat illegal activities against wildlife. Indeed, there is a need to harmonize and intensify efforts of law enforcement agencies to arrest and hold the violators accountable for their acts against the voiceless creatures. With the WildLEAP 2018-2028 guiding fund-sourcing, resource allocation, prioritization of enforcement activities, and evaluation of impacts of enforcement work in the country, we would vastly improve our capability to address illegal wildlife trade and protect biodiversity in the archipelago. I thank the Biodiversity Management Bureau (BMB) for leading the working group in the formulation of the WildLEAP 2018-2028. --------- ROY A. CIMATU Secretary, DENR MESSAGE The active synchronization of enforcement personnel has led to a significant curtailment of illegal activities on wildlife throughout the country, but there is yet room for improvement. Alarming developments point to the Philippines having been made a transshipment and destination point for wildlife trade across national borders even as we guard against the encroachment of poachers within our territory. Inter-agency collaboration in wildlife enforcement is necessary in our all-out war against poachers and traffickers of wildlife species.

  • The Early Switch Hypothesis: Linguistic Evidence for Contact Between Negrltes and Austroneslans
    Man and Culture in Oceania, 3 Special Issue: 41-59, 1987 The Early Switch Hypothesis: Linguistic Evidence for Contact between Negrltes and Austroneslans Lawrence A. Reid 1 Distribution of Negritos in the Philippines The Philippine population consists of two generally quite distinct racial types. There are the so-called Malay peoples, numbering over 50 million, and then there are the Negritos, probably totaling fewer than 15,000, and speaking perhaps more than twenty-five distinct languages, about one-quarter .of the total number of Philippine languages. The former are often referred to in the literature as "lowlanders" to distinguish them from the Negritos, who are typi­ cally hunter-gatherers who live in foothill or mountain areas. In this paper neither "Malay" nor "lowlanders" will be used to refer to non-Negritos.The first term implies that they came from or are somehow descended from Malays, which we know to be patently false. The second term implies that there are no mountain dwelling non-Negritos, which is also false. They will be referred to simply as non-Negritos, Negritos are found in a number of areas in Southeast Asia. In the Philip­ pines they are broadly distributed from the far north of Luzon, ,through the Bisayas in the Central Philippines, Palawan in the west, and in several areas of Mindanao in the south (Fig. 1). Various hypotheses have appeared in the literatureabout the provenance of Philippine Negritos. Solheim (1981: 25) considers them to be the descendants of a late Pleistocene population scattered across the Philippines. Bellwood (1985: 74, 113) likewise considers them to be the descendants of the earliest population in the Philippines, with differences in the various populations being the result the result of micro-evolutionary development within the Philippines.

Project Background and Rationale The project site is the Polillo Group of Islands3 (Fig 1), located 29 kilometers off the east coast of Luzon in the Philippines. It comprises a small group of 27 islands and islets divided into five municipalities (Burdeos, Panukulan, Polillo, Jomalig and Patnanungan4) under the administrative and political jurisdiction of Quezon Province in Region IVa or CALABARZON (Provinces of Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon). The Polillos are an important biodiversity area of the Philippines, supporting numerous endemic species, globally important populations of various threatened Philippine threatened endemic species, such as the Philippine cockatoo5 (Cacatua haematuropygia) and the Gray’s monitor lizard6 (Varanus olivaceous), and high degrees of both terrestrial and marine species diversity; the latter also being attributed to the wide range of habitats present in the area. The biodiversity importance of the Poilillos is further affirmed with its inclusion as one of the 128 Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) of the Philippines declared recently by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) through the Protected Areas and Wildlife Bureau (PAWB), along with several international and national institutions.

Publication edited by the Department of Human and Economic Geography, University of Göteborg. Series B, no. 110. 207 pages. This study describes, evaluates and analyses how a substantial improvement of road accessibility has influenced the distributional outcomes of socio-economic development impacts in a rural peripheral area in the Philippines. The impact population consists of 75,000 inhabitants. The outcomes regarding the 500 households and firms are explored through a before-after micro-level case study, using a double difference technique and a multi-criteria impact assessment analysis. Other data were collected through key informant interviews, a traffic counting survey, road network accessibility inventories, and official documents. The data covers the years between 1990-2005. The research questions are essentially concerned with the distribution of an increased economic activity resulting from the road project.
