Summary Baseco and Its Proclamation Denis Murphy Baseco was an unremarkable urban poor community from its beginning in the 1970’s up to 2001 and EDSA III. Then hundreds maybe thousands of its people joined the pro Estrada forces that rallied at the EDSA Shrine and marched on Malacañang. It was suddenly a suspect place and was seen and still is seen as a major recruiting locale for anti-President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo groups. In February 2002 the land of Baseco was proclaimed by the president as a residential site for the people already living there, and shortly after 25%-30% of the community was destroyed by fire on Holy Saturday night, Sabado de Gloria. The government in an unparalleled burst of activity filled in the land where the houses were burned (it had been a community on stilts over mud and water) and gave certificates of award to 750 fire victim families all within one month. Thus most of the major events in the community’s life have taken place in the last two years. Baseco consists of Engineer’s Island and two stone breakwaters that extend out from it into Manila Bay.

Pregnant with a third child, she was so desperate she took bitter herbs, threw herself out of a window then massaged her abdomen until she started bleeding. The team talks to a Helot a traditional midwife who provides induced abortions to poor women. Concealing her identity as shes very scared of reprisals, the Helot explains how she charges £7 to carry out the procedure, without any anaesthetic. Many patients end up in hospital, and some of them on the verge of death. For those women who can afford it, the alternative to a Helot is an illegal clinic charging £60 a session. one clinic where a terrified 17-year-old about to undergo an abortion tells Obaid Chinay that having given birth just three months before and already pregnant she has now other choice.
