WELCOME! FELICIDADES! TOUTES NOS FÉLICITATIONS ! TO THE ROYAL INSTITUTION’S 29TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE AND CONFERMENT CEREMONY ON 20 JANUARY 2020 AT L'FISHER HOTEL, BACOLOD CITY, PHILIPPINES Allow me to express personally my happy greetings to all the Guests of the Royal Institution Singapore who are all gathered on this wonderful day to discuss the theme of our International Conference which is “RI2020: The Leading Edge in Human Capital Development”. Our Confreres and Colleagues today are all international delegates in the fields of accounting, architecture, health and sciences, engineering, technological, technical and vocational education, tourism, hotel and restaurant management, business, entrepreneurship, public administration and many other disciplines. I, for one, have been invited to discuss in this International Conference the topic of “RI2020: The Leading Edge in Human Capital Development”. I may say that very significant changes have occurred from the ‘60s to the ‘80s to the ‘90s to our own present time as far as the place of universities and colleges in the international commerce of knowledge is concerned. To be sure, the university participates in the international knowledge system just as it participates in its local knowledge system: that is, through its functions of teaching, research and service. And the university also acts through the role model of educational institution which it provides. The university as a teaching institution participates in the international knowledge system through the students it accepts, through the faculty it hires, and the curriculum it offers. The curriculum itself in so far as it offers self-conscious connection with international scholarly commitments reflects the many intellectual developments that have occurred in world order studies over the years. Firstly, a whole new orientation to world order studies has emerged. This new approach attempts to combine a theory of popular struggle with a vision of a just world order. It is less pre-occupied with constructing blueprints of world order and more concerned with an ongoing political process particularly as reflected in the struggle of the oppressed. It is less legalistic in approach and more appreciative of the cultural, economic, historical and psychological underpinnings of political and legal structure. Finally, this new approach is less interested in agreement at the intergovernmental level and more oriented to popular participation and to alternative conceptions of governance and development that go far beyond classical, liberal and Marxist ideas. A second development is that world politics studies are more transdisciplinary today than some years back. There are more courses in departments like history, sociology, anthropology and economics, and a greater variety of approaches to world order problems. For example, there are ecological approaches to economic development, economic approaches to peace, and conflict approaches to world economics. Thirdly, the study of world order has become more attentive to the interlinkages that exist among world problem areas. Now, courses deal systematically with the relationship between military spending, economic development and human capital development. 10 Royal Institution’s 29th International Conference & Conferment Ceremony CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE Fourthly, there is increasing interest in the role culture plays in shaping world order. Cultural factors are being studied for their effects on political legitimacy, economic development, resource utilization, and conflict formation. Finally, international relations thinking while more sensitive to local struggle is also more holistic. The recent appreciation of the earth as a delicately balanced ecological system has reinforced the wholeness of the human family. As Richard Falk of Princeton University writes, feeling, thinking and acting as planetary citizen is what international relations studies is increasingly about. These are just a few of the developments that I believe are making international affairs studies a richer, more meticulous and more rigorous field of study. Unquestionably, further developments can be expected in the years ahead as more and more educators in universities become concerned about making their teaching more pertinent to the search for peace and human well-being and

She has been patiently waiting in The Philippines and attending our English conversation class online since September last year. In this issue she tells us all about her home country, The Philippines. The islands of the Philippines were discovered by Ferdinand Magellan, a Portuguese explorer sailing for Spain, in the year 1521. The name Philippines was named after the king of Spain, Philip II, during Spanish colonisation. The Spaniards ruled for 333 years in the country and the period ended on June 12, 1898 when the Philippine Revolution happened and Filipinos got their independence. This day has become the celebration, Independence Day. BCCI Newsletter Page 02 Vol. 2 Issue 5 2021 BCC Institute Newsletter The Republic of the Philippines is an archipelagic country in Southeast Asia which consists of about 7,600 islands and is divided into three main groups, namely: Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

  • Negros Panaad Festival Dances: a Reflection of Negrenses' Cultural
    Asia Pacific Journal of Multidisciplinary Research, Volume 8, No. 3, August 2020 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Asia Pacific Journal of Negros Panaad Festival Dances: A Reflection Multidisciplinary Research of Negrenses’ Cultural Identity Vol. 8 No.3, 13-24 August 2020 Part III Randyll V. Villones P-ISSN 2350-7756 Philippine Normal University Visayas, Negros Occidental, Philippines E-ISSN 2350-8442 [email protected] www.apjmr.com ASEAN Citation Index Date Received: May 31, 2020; Date Revised: August 11, 2020 Abstract - Negrense cultural identity has been slowly eroded with the dynamics of virtual colonial cultural influences through social media. This sad state prompted the creation and organization of some cultural festival that will reawaken the cultural awareness and consciousness of every Negrense. This study aimed to analyze Negros Panaad festival dances to unearth the embedded cultural contexts which encapsulate the Negrenses’ Cultural Identity. The descriptive-narrative approach was employed to gather different dance characteristics, including historical background/context, movement description, costumes, accessories, props/dance implements, and music/rhythm. To examine the participants' understanding of the dance, its relation to everyday life activities, and worldview, the focused group discussion, and direct observation were conducted. Ten choreographers, ten dancers, five barangay officials, and five old-aged key informants, with a total of 30, served as participants of the study coming from different local government units joining the Panaad festival dances. Significant findings revealed that these dance characteristics manifested from festival dances were solid shreds of evidence of the different cultural contexts which rightfully mirrors the rootedness and the cultural undertone of Negrenses as a person in general.
