It provides a framework for national and international comparison and promotes harmonization of various types of statistics with goods and services. The primary purpose of the PCPC is to classify the goods and services that are the result of production in the Philippine economy. This production is accounted for in the national accounts of the country. The PCPC is useful in studying transactions in goods and services in detail. It serves as a national standard for assembling and tabulating all kinds of data requiring product detail including industrial production, national accounts, service industries, domestic and foreign commodity trade, international trade in services, balance of payments, consumption and price statistics. The PCPC will therefore, provide a link between product and industry or economic activity. The PCPC is one of the coordination mechanisms developed by the NSCB in consultation with the Technical Committee on Statistical Standards and Classifications (TCSSC) and its Technical Working Group on Philippine Central Product Classification (TWG-PCPC). We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the valuable contribution of the members of the Technical Committee on Standards and Classifications through its Technical Working Group on the PCPC for the review of this classification. Pursuant therefore to NSCB Resolution No. 13, series of 2002, all government offices, agencies and instrumentalities concerned are hereby enjoined to adopt and use this Philippine Central Product Classification effective June 5, 2002. ROMULO A. VIROLA Secretary General NSCB ii NSCB Resolution No. 13 Series of 2002 APPROVING AND ADOPTING THE 2002 PHILIPPINE CENTRAL PRODUCT CLASSIFICATION (PCPC) WHEREAS, there is a need to promote harmonization of various types of statistics dealing with goods and services; WHEREAS, a product classification is necessary (1) to provide a framework for national and international comparison of various kinds of statistics dealing with goods and services; and (2) to strengthen the role of the national accounts and balances as an instrument for coordination of economic statistics; WHEREAS, the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) Technical Staff prepared the guidelines and developed the first Philippine Central Product Classification (PCPC) based on the United Nations’ Central Product Classification (UN-CPC) Version 1.1; WHEREAS, the NSCB Technical Committee on Statistical Standards and Classifications (TC-SSC), through its Technical Working Group reviewed and recommended for approval the 2002 Philippine Central Product Classification (PCPC) which is aligned with the UN-CPC Version 1.1; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that the Board approve the 2002 Philippine Central Product Classification (PCPC) for adoption by concerned government agencies and instrumentalities. Approved this 5th day of June 2002, in Pasig City iv INTRODUCTION The Philippine Central Product Classification (PCPC) is a system of different but interrelated classifications of economic activities and goods and services. For purposes of obtaining international comparability for data according to goods and services, the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) prepared the PCPC which was patterned after the United Nations' Central Product Classification (CPC) Version 1.1. The PCPC, as a standard central product classification, was designed to serve as an instrument for assembling and tabulating all kinds of statistics requiring product detail. Such statistics may cover production, intermediate and final consumption, capital formation and foreign trade and may refer to commodity flows, stocks or balances and may be compiled in the context of input-output tables, balance-of-payments and other analytical presentations. As a general-purpose product classification, it serves as a guideline for future product-type classifications for specific areas of the economy. Such specific classifications should be compatible with the general framework of PCPC so as to ensure comparability of data. The PCPC includes categories for all products that can be the object of a domestic or international transaction or that can be entered into stocks. Furthermore, not only products that are an output of economic activity are represented, including transportable goods and non- transportable goods and services, but also non-produced assets, including land and assets that arise from legal contracts, such as patents, licenses, trademarks and copyrights (intangible assets). Although the non-produced assets are not regarded as products in the System of National Accounts (SNA), it was considered useful to include them in the PCPC because there is substantial national and international trade in them, and many users are interested in such data. The PCPC was prepared by the Standards and Classifications Systems Division under the Policies, Programs, and Standards Office (PPS) of the NSCB in consultation with the members of the Technical Committee on Statistical Standards and Classification (TC-SSC) through its Technical Working Group on Philippine Central Product Classification (TWG-PCPC). The TWG-PCPC is composed of representatives from the following agencies: » National Statistics Office (NSO) » Bureau of Agricultural Statistics (BAS) » Tariff Commission (TC) » National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) » Bureau of Labor and Employment Statistics (BLES) » Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) » Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) » Board of Investments (BOI) » Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) The TWG was subdivided into four (4) sub-working groups which facilitated the completion of the PCPC. Each sub-working group was assigned to work on two or three closely related sections of the PCPC. v TECHNICAL NOTES Historical Background The need for the development of the Central Product Classification originated from initiatives in the early 1970s to harmonize international classifications. In the development of those initiatives, a standard classification of all products was perceived as a key element. The twenty-first session of the Conference of European Statisticians, in 1973, and meetings of members of both bodies with the secretariats of international organizations, there was general agreement on the need to improve harmonization among the various classifications prepared under the auspices of the United Nations and other international bodies, in economic and other fields. With regards to the preconditions for creating a comprehensive classification of all goods and services, an important development took place in the 1970s. The Customs Cooperation Council (CCC) undertook the revision of its nomenclature (CCCN) and its extension from a four-digit system to a six-digit system. As a result, a new nomenclature, called the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS) was adopted in 1993 and entered into force on 1 January 1988. The Statistical Office of the United Nations Secretariat participated in the development of HS, mainly in order to ensure that the disaggregations applied in HS were, to the extent possible, consistent with the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC) of the United Nations and the industrial origin of the goods. Based on the recommendations of an Expert Group convened by the United Nations Secretariat, the Statistical Commission at its nineteenth session, in 1976, approved a programme to harmonize the existing activity classifications of the United Nations, the European Communities and the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance and to simultaneously develop a system of different, but interrelated, classifications of economic activities and goods and services. Development of a new classification covering both goods and services – the Central Product Classification (CPC) – was intended to provide a basic

    Title: 15 Hour Food Frenzy Safari in Manila with WSFC16 World Street Food Congress 2016 by Makansutra JK1407 Date of publication: Monday, 22 February 2016 Author: Tony, Johor Kaki Name of publication: http://johorkaki.blogspot.com/ http://johorkaki.blogspot.com/2016/02/15-hour-food-frenzy-safari-in-manila.html I just got home from the gruelling 15 Hour Food Frenzy Safari in Manila curated by KF Seeton of Makansutra and Anton Diaz of OurAwesomePlanet in conjunction with the World Street Food Congress WSFC 2016. I am so excited to share this crazy foodie adventure with you :-D The 15 Hour Food Frenzy Safari is a memorable introduction to delicious Philippines food, culture, places, history and people. Updated as of 5 March 2016 Over thirty of us, local and overseas media were put through the intensive 15 hour long initiation to Philippines food. Setting off from Seda Hotel in the buzzing Bonifacio Global City BGC, our first stop was Recovery Food just 5 minutes hop away. Recovery Food began as a small shop popular with party goers who popped by before and after Updated as of 5 March 2016 drinking at bars. It's a modern cafe now, though simply furnished. Recovery Food has kept to the original home style comfort food menu and round-the-clock operations that had earned it success. There were many Filipino home style dishes to try at Recovery Food. I enjoyed their signature Tapa de Morning which sounded like "top of the morning" (hint.. hint.. hangover food). I was happily chomping down on the home made tapa which tasted like a tender type of savoury sweet zingy tangy beef jerky and slurping up that gorgeous runny egg when KF Seetoh came over and warned me to take it easy.

  • Assessing the Impacts of Conservation and Commercial Forestry on Livelihoods in Northern Republic of Congo
    [Downloaded free from http://www.conservationandsociety.org on Friday, January 10, 2014, IP: 129.79.203.216] || Click here to download free Android application for this journal Conservation and Society 11(3): 199-217, 2013 Article Assessing the Impacts of Conservation and Commercial Forestry on Livelihoods in Northern Republic of Congo Michael Riddell Bioclimate, Research and Development, Edinburgh, UK Research undertaken at: Oxford University Centre for the Environment, Oxford, UK E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Researchers often attempt to understand the social impacts of conservation interventions in isolation of broader socioeconomic, political and institutional change. However it is important to understand the variety of forces structuring livelihood impacts, and to identify how different social groups respond and adapt to changes. This article uses a case study from northern Republic of Congo, where rural livelihoods are shaped by a combination of conservation and commercial forestry activities, to understand the differential livelihood impacts of these activities on the two principal social groups, the Aka hunter-gatherers and Kaka and Bondongo farmer-fi shers. The study results indicate that livelihood change is most striking in conservation-forestry villages compared to control villages, and this change is most evident among the Aka. Although commercial forestry is the principal driver of livelihood change, the enforcement of conservation regulations reduces households’ access to natural capital and alters social relations. In this context the impacts of conservation were exacerbated due to the dramatic transformation of the livelihood space into which people were either economically displaced or chose to move to. Conservation interventions in similar contexts should involve people in the project design and initiate context-specifi c livelihood assessment and monitoring prior to and during the intervention.

  • Traditional Dietary Culture of Southeast Asia
    Traditional Dietary Culture of Southeast Asia Foodways can reveal the strongest and deepest traces of human history and culture, and this pioneering volume is a detailed study of the development of the traditional dietary culture of Southeast Asia from Laos and Vietnam to the Philippines and New Guinea from earliest times to the present. Being blessed with abundant natural resources, dietary culture in Southeast Asia flourished during the pre- European period on the basis of close relationships between the cultural spheres of India and China, only to undergo significant change during the rise of Islam and the age of European colonialism. What we think of as the Southeast Asian cuisine today is the result of the complex interplay of many factors over centuries. The work is supported by full geological, archaeological, biological and chemical data, and is based largely upon Southeast Asian sources which have not been available up until now. This is essential reading for anyone interested in culinary history, the anthropology of food, and in the complex history of Southeast Asia. Professor Akira Matsuyama graduated from the University of Tokyo. He later obtained a doctorate in Agriculture from that university, later becoming Director of Radiobiology at the Institute of Physical and Chemical research. After working in Indonesia he returned to Tokyo's University of Agriculture as Visiting Professor. He is currently Honorary Scientist at the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research, Tokyo.

  • 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.

  • A Socio- Economic History of Alcohol in Southeastern Nigeria Since 1890
    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Background to the Study Alcohol has various socio-economic and cultural functions among the people of southeastern Nigeria. It is used in rituals, marriages, oath taking, festivals and entertainment. It is presented as a mark of respect and dignity. The basic alcoholic beverage produced and consumed in the area was palm -wine tapped from the oil palm tree or from the raffia- palm. Korieh notes that, from the fifteenth century contacts between the Europeans and peoples of eastern Nigeria especially during the Atlantic slave trade era, brought new varieties of alcoholic beverages primarily, gin and whisky.1 Thus, beginning from this period, gins especially schnapps from Holland became integrated in local culture of the peoples of Eastern Nigeria and even assumed ritual position.2 From the 1880s, alcohol became accepted as a medium of exchange for goods and services and a store of wealth.3 By the early twentieth century, alcohol played a major role in the Nigerian economy as one third of Nigeria‘s income was derived from import duties on liquor.4 Nevertheless, prior to the contact of the people of Southern Nigeria with the Europeans, alcohol was derived mainly from the oil palm and raffia palm trees which were numerous in the area. These palms were tapped and the sap collected and drunk at various occasions. From the era of the Trans- Atlantic slave trade, the import of gin, rum and whisky became prevalent.These were used in ex-change for slaves and to pay comey – a type of gratification to the chiefs. Even with the rise of legitimate trade in the 19th century alcoholic beverages of various sorts continued to play important roles in international trade.5 Centuries of importation of gin into the area led to the entrenchment of imported gin in the culture of the people.

    Multiple Benefits of REDD at the Landscape Scale REDD+ as a Development Strategy G. Ken Creighton, Ph.D. Principal Advisor, Forests and Climate WWF International, Africa Region (CARPO) c/o WWF-Belgium Boulevard Emile Jacquemin 90 1000 Bruxelles, BELGIUM The Central African Republic Partners and Collaborators (it takes a village) • Government of the Central African Republic - Ministry of Forestry - Ministry of Environment - Provincial Government (Bayanga) • The BaAka and Bantu Peoples • Development Cooperation Agencies - USAID - Agence Francaise de Developpement - GtZ and KfW (German Cooperation) - DGIS (Netherlands) - Belgian Cooperation What is REDD-plus? As defined by the Central African Countries in their 2007 submission to the UNFCCC, REDD+ includes: • Deforestation • Forest Degradation • Conservation of forest carbon stocks • Sustainable management of forests • Enhancement of forest carbon sequestration What is a Landscape? • The Sangha Tri-national Landscape covers 45,200 km2 • The area of Vermont is 24,901 km2 • The Lobeke National Park in Cameroon (2,178 km2), the Dzanga-Ndoki NP (1,443 km2) in CAR, and the Nouabale- Ndoki NP (4,268 km2) in Congo, constitute the core protected area of the landscape. • Together these Protected Areas encompass 7895 km2 or less than 18% of the landscape Central African Landscapes (from USAID CARPE Information Tool) Premise By focusing on the “development opportunities” of REDD+ at a landscape level it may be possible to harness “global resources” to provide durable local benefits in addition to making measurable and sustainable contributions to “global” issues such as climate change and global warming. The Sangha Trinational Landscape as a “Mosaic” of Compatible Land Uses Why are we there? • Forests cover 95% of the landscape, and extend from semi deciduous forest in the north-west, to swamp forest in the south- east, with natural “clearings or “bais” both inside and outside of protected areas.
