One of the great features of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines is that it always has the opportunity to constantly renew itself. Each year, we have a new opportunity to take the best of our past, add all the talents and energies that our members, volunteers, lay leaders and professionals bring into the organization, and rededicate ourselves to the pursuit of developing the young people to create positive changes in their communities. This interaction between the past and the present, the young people and the pool of volunteers, lay leaders and professionals, will help lead us to a fuller understanding of our organization’s purpose and to a capacity to endow all our endeavors with greater meaning. On the other hand, the Boy Scouts of the Philippines, is a character organization. Thus, it behooves us to demonstrate propriety and ethical conduct at all times. Keeping this in mind, the National Executive Board has promulgated policies, guidelines and procedures. These include the Election Rules and Procedures (ERP) governing the conduct of the election for members and officers of the National Executive Board, the highest policy and decision-making body of the organization. The National Council of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines, composed1 of members of the National Executive Board, Charter Members, Life Members, Regional Commissioners, Chairmen and Commissioners of the duly chartered Local Councils, and other duly accredited delegates, will convene on 15-17 May 2017 at the Bohol Tropics Resort, Graham Avenue, Tagbilaran City, Bohol to elect the regular members of the National Executive Board2, among others. 1 Article IV, Section 2 of the BSP National By Laws: “Section 2. Membership. The National Council of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines shall consist of the a) National Executive Board, b) Charter Members, c) Life Members, d) Regional Commissioners, e) Chairmen and Commissioners of the duly chartered Local Councils, and other duly accredited delegates herein provided for; provided that, in the case of Life Members, the number, membership and qualifications thereof shall be determined by the National Executive Board.” (emphasis supplied) 2 Article V, Section 1. Ibid: “Section 1. Annual Meetings. The National Council shall hold an annual meeting not later than May 31 of each year, at such time, date and place as may be determined by the National Executive Board for the purpose of receiving the annual reports of the officers, electing the regular members of the National Executive Board, xxx” (emphasis provided) Official List of Nominees for Regular Members of the National Executive Board | Page 4 of 38 In this case, it shall elect for FOUR (4) regular members to the National Executive who shall have three (3) year terms each, or for CY 2017-2020. The BSP endeavors to have a diverse and a strong representation in the National Executive Board, including a multi-sectoral representation for the 15-man Private Sector Representatives. Towards this end, the BSP National Office has issued National Office Memorandum No. 18, Series of 20173, directing all Regional Scout Directors, Council Scout Executives and Officers-in-Charge to vigorously recruit volunteers of prominent status to ensure a wide selection of candidates that will be elected to the National Executive Board. Thus, to guide all voting delegates in choosing their candidates, the Committee on Nominations of the National Executive Board has directed the BSP National Office, thru the Field Operations Division, to produce an ‘election brochure’ bearing all essential information about the candidates and their perceptions and on board and committee work in the Boy Scouts of the Philippines. Likewise, the election rules and procedures have also been included in this brochure for reference and convenience. This year’s candidates include the following: 1. Danilo C. Asiaten 2. Jorge L. Banal, Sr. 3. Jejomar C. Binay 4. Enrique B. Lagdameo 5. Sofronio C. Ona, Jr. 6. Jose Rizalino L. Ortega 7. Roberto M. Pagdanganan 8. Allan L. Rellon May this election brochure guide each of you in selecting the candidates that best represent and safeguard the interests of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines, and the young people that we ought to serve.

Lipski The Pennsylvania State University, USA Abstract In bilingual contact environments, personal pronoun systems are relatively impervious to replacement or borrowing. Several Creole languages contain hybrid personal pronoun paradigms, but the language contact environments that resulted in creolization and mixed pronominal systems are no longer in effect, and the mechanisms of pronominal replacement remain unknown. The present analysis is based on data from Zamboangueño Chabacano, a variety of Philippine Creole Spanish that has already undergone at least one set of pronominal replacements in its history, substituting Spanish-derived plural pronouns with pronouns taken from Philippine languages. Due to recent migration, Zamboangueño Chabacano is now in contact with Tagalog, and younger speakers are incorporating the Tagalog second-person singular respect-neutral pronoun ikaw into the Chabacano system. The insertion of ikaw restores the respectful–respect-neutral pronominal distinction originally present in Spanish and found in Philippine languages but lacking in Chabacano. The ease with which a Tagalog pronoun is entering Chabacano is attributed to long-standing popular views that Zamboangueño Chabacano is already a mixed-up language—often regarded as “broken Spanish”—devoid of its own grammar and therefore readily susceptible to any and all intrusions. The use of ikaw as an in-group marker among Zamboangueño youth further aids the addition of the Tagalog pronoun to the Chabacano paradigm.

  • Philippine Politics and Society in the Twentieth Century
    Philippine Politics and Society in the Twentieth Century Well over a decade has passed since the dramatic ‘People Power Revolution’ in Manila, yet until now no book-length study has emerged to examine the manifold changes underway in the Philippines in the post-Marcos era. This book fills that gap. Philippine Politics and Society in the Twentieth Century offers historical depth and sophisticated theoretical insight into contemporary life in the archipelago. Organised as a set of interrelated thematic essays rather than a chronological account, the book addresses key topics which will be of interest to the academic and non-academic reader, such as trends in national-level and local politics, the role of ethnic-Chinese capital in the Philippine economy, nationalism and popular culture, and various forms of political violence and extra-electoral contestation. Drawing on a wide variety of primary and secondary sources, as well as over a decade of research and work in the area, Hedman and Sidel provide an invaluable overview of the contemporary and historical scene of a much misunderstood part of Southeast Asia. This book fills an important gap in the literature for readers interested in understanding the Philippines as well as students of Asian studies, comparative politics, political economy and cultural studies. Eva-Lotta E. Hedman is Lecturer in Asian-Pacific Politics at the University of Nottingham. John T. Sidel is Lecturer in Southeast Asian Politics at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.
