  • Multilevel Censorship As Media Repression in the Philippines
    PSSR 65/2 (2013): 45-72 Teresa Lorena A. Jopson University of the Philippines Manila Silent Assault: Multilevel Censorship as Media Repression in the Philippines Abstract This article examines media repression as experienced by independent media practitioners. It explores two cases of media repression through interviews: the termination of the radio program Ngayon Na, Bayan! (Right Now, People!) in 2006; and the censorship of Rights, a series of public service advertisements in 2007. State censorship through laws, review and regulatory boards, and the military, together with self-censorship among media practitioners due to pressures in the media industry, constitute multilevel media repression. The silencing of alternative voices is a form of everyday violence (Scheper-Hughes, 2003; Kleinman, 2003). As multilevel repression exposes the insecurity of a government in a state of crisis (Wieviorka 2003), a counter discourse to silence (Greene, 2003) is created in the process. Keywords multilevel censorship, media repression, state censorship, self-censorship, culture of silence, counter discourse Teresa Lorena A. Jopson is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Social Sciences, UP Manila. She has a BA in Anthropology from UP Diliman and an MA in Development Studies, Major in Human Rights, Development and Social Justice from the International Institute of Social Studies of Erasmus University Rotterdam.

Jopson University of the Philippines Manila Silent Assault: Multilevel Censorship as Media Repression in the Philippines Introduction The contrast in the freedom of the press before and during Martial Law (1972-1986) – from the freest to the most censored, notorious for killing and jailing journalists – has been underscored in literature on censorship in the country (Lent, 1974).

On the Genesis of the Philippine Nation and Filipino Identity Würfel (1988) establishes the following periodization of Philippine history: 1.) the pre-Spanish era, 2.) the Spanish era, 3.) the revolutionary period, 4.) the American period, 5.) the Japanese period and 6.) the post World War II period. I shall make use of this periodization in an attempt to organize the different value influences that have shaped economic life and business practice in the Philippines. The pre-Spanish era The first evidences of human habitation in the Islands may be found in the Tabon caves in Palawan. The artefacts recovered from the site date back to 22,000 B.C. The Banawe rice terraces in the Cordillera mountain range on the island of Luzon were built by the Ifugaos in the year 1 B.C., approximately. In 960 A.D. substantial amounts of Chinese goods began to flow into the Archipelago, and around 1100, the first Chinese colonies were founded along coastal areas. In the 1200s, Islam was introduced in the southern island of Mindanao. In the 1300s, a group of 10 "datus" or chieftains from Borneo settled with their kin in Panay Island, in the central region of the Visayas. When the first Europeans arrived, different communities of mixed Negroid, Malay, Chinese and Arab ethnicities were already inhabiting and flourishing in the Islands. Each of these groups had its own dialect as well as its distinct cultural and character traits: the sturdy and frugal Ilocanos, the industrious Tagalogs and the musically-gifted and entrepreneurial Cebuanos, to name a few.
