  • Laguna Lake, the Philippines: Industrial Contamination Hotspots
    Laguna Lake, The Philippines: industrial contamination hotspots Iryna Labunska, Kevin Brigden, Paul Johnston Greenpeace Research Laboratories Technical Note 06/2011 June 2011 1. Introduction Contamination of natural water resources by discharges from the industrial sector in the Philippines continues to be a significant problem. In 2007, Greenpeace launched the Water Patrol to document the impact of water pollution on local communities in the Philippines. Within the framework of this project, several industrial sites located around Laguna Lake were visited in July 2010. During these visits, samples of wastewater discharges into creeks and tributaries of Laguna Lake and corresponding sediment or soil samples were collected. The sites which were chosen for investigation in this study were those accommodating potentially polluting facilities in the area. The selection of the facilities was based on the following criteria: facility operations were thought to involve the use of toxic chemicals; the facility discharged wastewater directly into Laguna Lake or one of its tributaries; in some cases, the facility had been previously identified by government agencies as a polluting industry and listed in the black or red lists by the Laguna Lake Development Authority or the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Four facilities located to the south-east of Laguna Lake were targeted in the current study: Mayer Textile; Philippine Industrial Sealants and Coatings Corporation (PIS); TNC Chemicals; Carmelray 1 Industrial Park. Wastewater is discharged from these facilities into the San Juan River and the San Cristobal River. Two other target facilities were located to the north of Laguna Lake - Hansson Papers and Litton Mills.

  • Reliving the Music in the Journeys of Nuestra Señora De La Paz Y Buen Viaje: Antipolo Baroque to Twentieth-Century Manila Ma
    Reliving the Music in the Journeys of Nuestra Señora de la Paz y Buen Viaje: Antipolo Baroque to Twentieth-century Manila Ma. Patricia Brillantes-Silvestre Eres mi Madre, plácida Maria; Tú mi vida serás, mi fortaleza; Tú en este fiero mar serás mi guia. -Jose Rizal A la Virgen María, 1880 The Philippine rites of Mary are many and varied, each with its own unique character and homegrown tradition. These range from solemn novena to ecstatic procession, quaint poem-and-flower offering to lilting song and dance, arduous pilgrimage to carefree fiesta. These may take place on land or river, country shrine or city basilica, small community inroad or wide, expansive boulevard. But all are marked by a massive outpouring of affection and tenderness. The cult of Mary in the Philippines has grown from simple folk expression in early times to an imposing display of organized faith in the colonial era, backed by the Church itself and the cabildo or city government (Summers 1998 204), and in more recent times, propped up by a network of wealthy patrons, schools, commercial establishments, and an assortment of civic, artistic and religious organizations. For a people who call themselves in a Marian hymn, “un pueblo amante de María” (a people who love Mary), and who address Mary as “Mama” in such familial terms, these rites represent distinct personal relationships with the Mother of God, hence the variety of expression. This paper focuses on Our Lady of Antipolo, one of the most popular and historic shrines in the country. Our Lady of Antipolo Antipolo is a small town southeast of Manila, situated on a foothill of the Sierra Madre mountain range in Luzon.

  • The Daang Hari Road
    The Feasibility Study and Implementation Support on the CALA East-West National Road Project Final Report Chapter 7 7.7.2 Daang Hari Road (DH) The Daang Hari Road (DH) will start from the border between Muntinlupa City (National Capital Region) and the municipality of Imus, Cavite, where it will be connected with the existing Daang Hari Road which is at present under construction. The DH Road will end at the Coastal Road in the Municipality of Tanza. Total length of DH-3 and DH-4 is 21.0 km. Since the proposed alignment is located at lowland between EL.10 m to EL.30 m and crosses over many rivers flowing down from south to north into Manila Bay, due consideration will be required to decide the design flood levels appropriately. The DH Road can be divided mainly into two parts, namely east and west sections of Aguinaldo Highway. Within the eastern part, DH Road will cross seven rivers, which are moderately small creeks with 15 m to 25 m of width. It will cross with the proposed NS Road at Sta.8+230. At Sta.8+800, a new bridge is under construction along the proposed alignment. The western part which stretches from Aguinaldo Highway to the end point at the Coastal Road, a total of five rivers will be crossed by the alignment. Paddy and pasture land is the predominant land use in this area, contrary to those in the eastern part. It is noted that future urbanization and land use changes shall be taken into account to estimate flood discharge at crossings where the catchments varies between 50 to 100 km2 approximately.
