The designer, Gabrielle Michaela L. Tanjutco, incorporated the colors yellow, blue and red as inspired by the shades of the Philippine flag. Yellow represents people’s unity and freedom, blue stands for peace, truth and justice while the red found on the ribbon represents Filipino patriotism and valor. Her chosen subject, a city, indicates the progress, dynamism, and growth of the country. The city was founded on an unused swampland south of the capital, Manila. Makati has now become the dynamic financial trading center of the Philippines, a multi-cultural hub. The city is aptly chosen to host this year’s APEC Summit because it is now at the forefront of the Philippine development story. The green landscape at the bottom of the cover booklet not only incorporates the theme “Building a Sustainable Future: Inclusive Growth, Resilience and Empowerment” but also presents the predominantly agricultural setting that comprises the Philippine economy. Many small-medium enterprises are involved in this industry, which makes the Philippines economy vibrant and stable. Having a competitive advantage in trading products including mangoes, banana, coconuts, pineapple and even tuna makes the country a prime choice for investment. By aligning sustainability and inclusive growth, the country hopes to become one of fastest growing economies in the world. On the Designer Gabrielle “Gabie’’ Tanjutco is a full-stack designer from the Philippines whose diverse work has been featured on both the web and print in the Philippines, U.S.A, United Kingdom, and other countries.

By working and learning together, the APEC Voices’ teams are able to share their views on the APEC vision with APEC Leaders, Senior Officials, ABAC Members and CEOs. Through their participation in the APEC process, APEC Voices delegates are given the rare opportunity to engage in dialogues with top policymakers, foster cooperation and prosperity in the classrooms and communities of the Asia-Pacific Region. This year’s APEC Voices of the Future Program will be held in Manila, Philippines, in conjunction with the APEC CEO Summit 2015. For more details on the APEC Voices Program, please visit the website: http://www.apecvoices.org 2 Message My warmest greetings to all the delegates to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Voices of the Future Program. The APEC is where policy and decision makers come together to share their ideas and listen to each other’s suggestions in an effort to come up with agreements to make a more inclusive and progressive Asia-Pacific region. While much weight is given to the thoughts of experts, officials, and leaders who are invited to take part in this event, it is my firm belief that there is no voice more significant, more consequential, or more deserving of an audience than those whose future we are striving to make better: the youth. You are the heirs to both the legacy and consequences of our present actions; your opinion matters as much as ours. After all, it is your future that is at stake in these proceedings, so I expect that we will learn as much from you as you will from us. It is my hope that our conversations will not only be rich and informative, but also sincere, genuine, and honest. I encourage you to tell us all of your concerns, your dreams, and the kind of global community you envision yourselves living in so that, together, we can shape a world that we can proudly bequeath to coming generations. I wish you will have a fun, enlightening, and meaningful event. BENIGNO S. AQUINO III President of the Republic of the Philippines 3 Message I extend my warmest greetings and congratulations to the participants to the APEC Voices of the Future Program. I commend the officers and members of this program for your dedication in providing a meaningful learning experience for our youth and harnessing their idealism in realizing the goals and aspirations of our nation. It is hoped that the participants will have the opportunity to discuss the role of APEC in resolving key issues concerning the region so that its member countries may enjoy better mutual understanding and relations, economic integration, growth and prosperity. Our country is moving towards economic integration in the ASEAN community. While this means more opportunities for local business and industries, there is also a need to come up with better products and services that can compete in the foreign markets. It is therefore imperative to set our sights on a more integrative competition framework to attract investments, spur economic efficiency, and ultimately bring about a dynamic and sustainable economic growth and national progress. To the organizers of this event, I trust that you will continue to exude leadership and remain steadfast partners of government in developing our youth and encouraging them to commit to nation building. Mabuhay po kayong lahat! FRANKLIN M. DRILON Senate President Republic of the Philippines Senate Pasay City 4 Message It is my pleasure to welcome the youth delegates from the APEC Voices of the Future to the Philippines. This year, we are pleased to host the 2015 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Leaders’ Week and the APEC CEO Summit in Manila, Philippines. As the Host Economy, the Philippines chose the theme, “Building Inclusive Economies, Building a Better World”, reflecting the necessity to strengthen economic relationships among APEC Member Economies to promote sustainable and inclusive growth. The collaboration among APEC economies plays an integral role in improving the lives of many people in the Asia-Pacific region by creating jobs and providing people with better living environments. APEC 2015 also serves as a platform to identify and address issues that encourage the growth of business-friendly environments within the Asia-Pacific. These issues include investment in human capital and infrastructure, helping SMEs break into regional and global markets, ensuring that the business environment remains sustainable and resilient to changes, and ensuring the region’s economy is able to integrate with the global market. The youth cannot afford to sit back during these crucial times, for they will inherit the shared future we are building today. It is crucial for the youth to be involved and to engage meaningfully as policymakers across the region develop action plans and initiatives towards peace and prosperity. The youth of today’s Asia-Pacific will soon be the leaders of APEC. I believe it only natural for our world’s greatest stakeholders to have their voice heard loud and clear. Thus, I strongly encourage the youth leaders in APEC Voices 2015 to seize the opportunity to ask questions, seek answers, and offer possible solutions to the policymakers here. Together, the discussion we create allows us to learn from each other and to work together as a global community. You do not have to wait for your turn to lead—we need your voice, and we need it now. May I take this opportunity to wish you a fruitful event. I hope you make many new friends along the way, for after all, the world is held together by the force of genuine human connections. All the best in your future endeavors. CESAR V. PURISIMA Secretary of Finance Republic of the Philippines 5 Message On behalf of the Office of International Economic Relations, Department of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of the Philippines, I would like to extend a warm welcome to the delegates of the APEC Voices of the Future 2015 to the Philippines. The APEC Week will provide you an excellent platform to witness the inner- workings of APEC, along with the opportunity to see how APEC Leaders benefit the Asia-Pacific region through formulating policies that promote economic cooperation and free-trade between Member Economies. In today’s fast-changing environment, emerging economies in the Asia-Pacific region have to constantly adapt to cope with these changes and become resilient engines of global growth.

    DOCID: 3860741 UNCLASSIFIED The Origination and Evolution of Radio Traffic Analysis: World War II ( b ) ( 3 ) - E' . L . 86 - 3 6 ____I ··· Tb;• artitle it UNCLASSJF1ED OJrcept for the author's biography which is classified as marked. The bombing of the Philippines by the Japanese on 8 December 1941 came as a shock to the United States even though some Americans were braced for other attacks following the infamy of Pearl Harbor the previous day.1 After the near destruction of the U.S . fleet in Hawaii, the Japanese were focused on the rows of B-17s and P-40s parked neatly in the mid-day sun at Clark Field. MacArthur's air force was destroyed on the ground on that Monday afternoon without a fight. On that day, Lieutenant Howard W. Brown, a radio intelligence veteran attached to the Second Signal Service Company at Manila, changed the mission of the Army intercept unit from Japanese diplomatic to potentially more lucrative air force communications and began reconstructing the tactical military nets serving the attacking Japanese. Thus began U.S. Army radio traffic analysis in World War II. In Europe, our entry into the war spurred closer cooperation with British signals intelligence. Radio traffic analysis, as indeed the entire field of Sigint, was comprehensively developed by the British following more than two years of war with the Germans. Bletchley Park, home of Britain's Government Code and Cipher School (GC&CS), became the center of Allied Sigint efforts in World War II. This included the preparation and training of U.S.

  • Nytårsrejsen Til Filippinerne – 2014
    Nytårsrejsen til Filippinerne – 2014. Martins Dagbog Dorte og Michael kørte os til Kastrup, og det lykkedes os at få en opgradering til business class - et gammelt tilgodebevis fra lidt lægearbejde på et Singapore Airlines fly. Vi fik hilst på vore 16 glade gamle rejsevenner ved gaten. Karin fik lov at sidde på business class, mens jeg sad på det sidste sæde i økonomiklassen. Vi fik julemad i flyet - flæskesteg med rødkål efterfulgt af ris á la mande. Serveringen var ganske god, og underholdningen var også fin - jeg så filmen "The Hundred Foot Journey", som handlede om en indisk familie, der åbner en restaurant lige overfor en Michelin-restaurant i en mindre fransk by - meget stemningsfuld og sympatisk. Den var instrueret af Lasse Hallström. Det tog 12 timer at flyve til Singapore, og flyet var helt fuldt. Flytiden mellem Singapore og Manila var 3 timer. Vi havde kun 30 kg bagage med tilsammen (12 kg håndbagage og 18 kg i en indchecket kuffert). Jeg sad ved siden af en australsk student, der skulle hjem til Perth efter et halvt år i Bergen. Hans fly fra Lufthansa var blevet aflyst, så han havde måttet vente 16 timer i Københavns lufthavn uden kompensation. Et fly fra Air Asia på vej mod Singapore forulykkede med 162 personer pga. dårligt vejr. Miriams kuffert var ikke med til Manilla, så der måtte skrives anmeldelse - hun fik 2200 pesos til akutte fornødenheder. Vi vekslede penge som en samlet gruppe for at spare tid og gebyr - en $ var ca. 45 pesos. Vi kom i 3 minibusser ind til Manila Hotel, hvor det tog 1,5 time at checke os ind på 8 værelser.
