SALDIVAR-SALI Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering on May 24, 2004 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Engineering in Civil and Environmental Engineering ABSTRACT This research formulates a LANDSLIDE RISK RATING SYSTEM for the Greater Baguio area in the Philippines. It is hoped that the tool will be made a part of the physical/urban planning process when used by engineers and planners and used to address risks posed by landslides given the rapidly increasing concentration of population and the development of infrastructure and industry in the Baguio area. Reports and studies of individual landslides in the area are reviewed in order to discover the causal factors of mass movements and their interactions. The findings of these research works are discussed in the first portion of this paper.

  • Ibaloys “Reclaiming” Baguio: the Role of Intellectuals Jimmy Balud Fong
    Ibaloys “Reclaiming” Baguio: The Role of Intellectuals Jimmy Balud Fong The recognition of the United States Supreme Court of “native title” in 1909 has been recognized as a landmark decision for indigenous peoples all over the world. Also called the Cariño doctrine, the ruling honors a Baguio Ibaloy whose ancestral land would eventually be expropriated for the construction of Baguio as an American hill station, later as the Philippines’ unofficial summer capital. Fast-forward to 2014. Descendants of an Ibaloy family reclaim the land on which Casa Vallejo stands. Built in 1909, the building was originally Dormitory 4 for American soldiers. Salvador Vallejo converted it into a hotel in 1923. Persons with fond memories of the hotel claim the refurbished building is a ‘national heritage’ and should not be the subject of ancestral land claims. The year 2014 also saw the largest turnout of Ibaloys in and around Baguio for the celebration on Febru- ary 23 of Ibaloi Day, at the government-designated Ibaloi Heritage Garden in Burnham Park. Products of colonial and national educational systems, Ibaloy professionals and intellectuals played key roles in the institutionalization and implementation of such activities. Despite their breakthroughs for recognition nationally through certain constitutional provisions, and internationally, are indigenous peoples now trapped in the discourse of nation? Keywords: Onjon ni Ivadoy, Ibaloy Igorots, indigenous peoples, Cordillera, cultural studies Baguio as home The home and the past are two concepts that modernity, history and development have pushed to the foreground. Modernity and the awareness of history have made it possible to talk about the past, the present and the future.

    “In Memoriam” Sabrina Mae A. Sarandi, ARTS1 X5 CSS, Bass History [email protected] July 19, 2019 Rationale July 16, 2019 marked the 29th anniversary of the infamous 1990 Luzon Earthquake that devastated numerous population centers in Northern Luzon. Perhaps the most famous and most devastating center to be hit was the summer capital, Baguio City. In the midst of the calamity, high rise hotels toppled, roads cracked and were rendered impassable, and people were buried and trapped under heaps of rubble and debris. Bags of corpses lined the streets, the bodies waiting to be identified and claimed. As the earthquake destroyed Kennon Road and Marcos Highway, Bgauio City was isolated from the rest of the country for a whole seven days. Living in the city for 5 years and being steeped in its history, it’s the stories of the residents that truly made this a home for me. A cab driver taking me through South Drive and past the Beneco building once recalled how he and his family slept in the streets the night after the quake, too afraid to sleep under a roof that might kill them. An old soldier in PMA said that he could still remember the smell of Loakan Airport as he and his division piled up the bodies on the tarmac. A friend’s mother and grandmother still remember taking their family to sleep in the tents in Burnham Park. And yet, despite the earthquake being a fundamental memory for the city and its people, no official memorial stands today to honor the dead and still missing.
