Ang 15-Point Labor Agenda at ang Pagkakaisa ng Kilusang Paggawa sa Pilipinas
Get PDFAng pagkakaisa ng kilusang ng paggawa sa Piipinas ay pinanday ng higit isang daan taon ng pakikibaka at paglaban sa pang-aapi ng mga kapitalista,naghaharing uri at dayuhang monopolyo kapital. Subalit sa maramingpagkakataon, kinatatampukan din ito ng mga tunggalian at malalim nahidwaan sa loob mismo ng kilusan. Mailap ang pagkakaisa. Ang pagkakaiba sa ideolohiya, pulitika, maging sa paraan ng paggawa at mga personal na katangian ng mga lider manggagawa, at panunulsol ng mga tiwaling opisyal, kapitalista at mass media na kontrolado nito, ay mga salik na pumupigil sa pagkakaisa ng mga manggagawa
A Critical Discourse Analysis of Rodrigo Duterte’s Language on Endo and Labor Unionism
No full textRodrigo Duterte, back in his presidential campaign in 2016, promised to end endo or contractualization. It is a labor practice in the Philippines where companies temporarily employ workers not exceeding six months otherwiseregularization comes that obligates employers to pay workers’ benefits. With less than a year remaining in his term as president, endo continues affecting millions of Filipino workers as ending it is no longer a priority of his government. Since taking power, Duterte gave numerous speeches and interviews on some labor issues, such as endo and unionism. Interestingly, his perspective had shifted significantly from being a working class hero to a status quo defender characterized by his red-tagging of labor unions that he sees as communist ‘fronts’ and his refusal to end endo to seek a so-called balance between labor and capital. In this study, I considered the spoken and written discourse of Duterte on contractualization and unionism which can be found online in the websites of different news agencies and the Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO). The text and talk then were analyzed through the lenses of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), specifically the socio-cognitive approach by Teun van Dijk. The results show that Duterte’s discourse on labor issues exemplifies power and ideology and reinforces social representations against labor unionism
Ang Pagdalumat ng Bentahan sa Navotas Fish Port Complex Upang Masipat ang Kalagayan ng Pangingisda sa Pilipinas
No full textThe fishing problem in the Philippines increases due to the political mismanagement of the government. This paper analyzed the condition of selling in Navotas Fish Port Complex in the light of weather, industry, and the Covid-19 pandemic. The aim was developed based on the three objectives: (1) the period in which the average number of imported and sold fish, (2) the importation of fish based on volume, classification, and import/export, (3) the set price based on the supply and demand of fish imported. The study used socio-economics as a theory to understand the people’s behavior in selling fish to meet the income and contribute to the economy. The study revealed that the government controls fisheries because standards need to be accomplished before finding and importing the fishing food. In addition, it has been explained that the imported fish decreased in the NFPC due to the problems in fishing, unforeseen disasters, and the impact of the current pandemic. As a result, it affected the price of fish in the market and other stores. But mostly, the fishermen and people involved in selling are the ones who sacrifice the most because the government’s solution focuses on importing fish to other countries. In the end, the people should be aware of the volume of selling so that they can adjust to the system, while the government should implement a platform to help the fishing economy in the Philippines
ANG LALAKING PANTAY ANG TABAS NG BUHOK SA HARAPAN NG KANYANG MUKHA
Get PDFAng kuwentong ito ay isa ring pagpapatianod sa kung ano ang natatanaw at hindi natatanaw. O marahil, isang pagninilay sa kung papaanong hinuhulma ng lipunan at estado ang pananaw-mundo ng mga tao na magkaroon ng aspirasyong umangat sa buhay, mapalaya ang nakagapos na mga kamay, at mabago ang sistema ng daigdig. Batid kong hindi mababago at matutuldukan ng panulat at katha ang nabubulok na rehas na nagpipiit sa karapatan ng bawat isa na huminga ng may dangal at ginhawa, ngunit tinatanaw ko sa kuwentong ito ang layong maisalaysay ang nagsasala-salabid na kuwento ng mga tao na nakilala at naging kaibigan at kung papaanong nililok ng panlipunan, pampolitika, pangkultura, at pang- ekonomiyang suliranin ang galaw at timbang ng kanilang sinapit
A Hegelian Approach to Environmental Philosophy
Get PDFGeorg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel has been known as one of the philosophers that does not promote environmentalism as most of his works were focused on Nature vis-à-vis Spirit implies anthropocentrism. Hegel was considered a champion of the unqualified industrial exploitation of nature. But recently, researchers deemed that Hegel’s philosophy can accommodate the problems related to environmental philosophy. Hence, this paper will focus on the potentiality of Hegel’s use in Environmentalism, in agreement with Nicholas Mowad’s work The Natural World Spirit : Hegel on the Value of Nature (2012), Alison Stone’s work Petrified Intelligence (2005), and Wendell Kisner’s work The Category of Life, Mechanistic Reduction, and the Uniqueness of Biology (2008). This paper agrees that there are only limited things to which anthropocentrism can be applied in nature and that there is still some essence of nature into which we can know and are true, not being influenced by human phenomena. Thus, the paper holds that it is the concept of Consciousness holds the key to how we can aid environmentalism through Hegel, with our capability of knowing the true nature of the environment, we can then help with aiding the environmental crisis
Influence of Nitrogen Concentration on the C-Phycocyanin production of Spirulina platensis (Gomont) Geitler
Get PDFSpirulina platensis is a filamentous cyanobacterium that is widely used as a functional food due to its high nutritional value. A 24-day cultivation of S. platensis was conducted to assess the influence of varying nitrogen concentration in the production of C-phycocyanin (CPC). The CPC concentration, yield and purity were determined. The result showed that the CPC concentration and yield were highest at day 20 with 0.446 ± 0.057 mg/mL and 293.56 ± 78.33 mg/g, respectively. The purity of CPC extracted was highest at day 16 and considered as food grade with purity value from 0.78 to 0.97. This study showed high biomass productivity on nitrogen source
PARALAWOD AT IBA PANG DAGLI
Get PDFAng akdang Paralawod at iba pang dagli ay sumasalamin sa danas ng mga paralawod o mangingisda at maging ng mga taong nabubuhay sa mga biyaya ng dagat sa isla. Inspirasyon nito ang komunidad na nakaangkla ang kabuhayan sa pangingisda. At dahil hindi palaging namimigay ang dagat- -may mga pagkakataong ito’y nagdadamot dahil sa pagbilog ng buwan o maging nang paghuhuramentado nito dahil sa kalimitang pagbisita ng mga bagyo taon-taon--na nagreresulta sa pagkalunod ng kanilang kabuhayan. Ang nasambit na problema ng mga paralawod ang magiging daan sa pagdagsa pa ng iba pang mas malalang problema na magiging mahalagang sangkap sa proseso ng pagkatha ng may-akda
ANG TAO SA LOOB NG ANINO
Get PDFNagpupunta na ako noong kalagitnaan ng 1968 sa matandang gusali ng Philippine College of Commerce (PCC) sa may Lepanto, Maynila (likod ng University of the East (UE) na paharap sa Far Eastern University (FEU)) at “nakikipaghuntahan” sa loob ng opisina ng pangulong Dr. Nemesio E. Prudente sa mga kapwa propesor mula sa iba-ibang pamantasan sa Kalakhang Maynila. Apat na taon na akong nagtuturo noon sa Manuel L. Quezon University (MLQU) sa R. Hidalgo sa Quiapo pagkaraang maging presidente ako ng ng popular noong Kapisanang Aklat, Diwa at Panitik (KADIPAN 1962-64), binigkis na editoryal ng mga seksiyong Pilipino sa mga kolehiyo at unibersidad sa Kalakhang Maynila. Lagi ako sa PCC dahil waring naghahanap ako ng progresibong unibersidad na mapagtuturuan tulad ng iba pang mga propesor na galing sa University of the Philippines (UP) ang karamihan. Nasa “ituktok” na noon ang aktibidad ng tinatawag na mga progresibo’t makabayang organisasyon ng mga estudyante sa Maynila at sa mga karatig. Hindi ko pa alam noon na ang lagi naming kausap na si Dr. Prudente ay tubong-residente ng Rosario, Cavite—ang bayan ng mga Abueg. Siya rin ang kaswal na nagsabi sa akin na kamag-anak ko siya nang nagtuturo na ako sa PCC bilang part-time.
Natuklasan ko nang malaon ang sanhi kung bakit hindi ko nakatagpo noon si Cesario Y. Torres (lalong kilala bilang Ka Cesar at Ka Saryo). Nabilanggo pala siya at pinalaya lamang noong Enero 4, 1970 mula sa huling nilipatan niya (Camp Murphy na naging Fort Bonifacio malaon). Magiging estudyante siya sa PCC pagkalaya (1970) at propesor sa Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) pagkaraan ng ilang taong pag-aaral. Nasa hayskul siya nang mabilanggo at kailangang makapagtapos sa kolehiyo bago makapagturo
Quality of life of Non-Permanent Teachers and Their Coping Strategies During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Get PDFThe COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in tremendous challenges. Education is among the most affected social sectors. Teachers and students are compelled to adapt to the alternative modes of teaching and learning delivery. The Philippines’ largest Higher Education Institution in terms of students became the focus of this study, particularly its non-permanent teaching staff. This research is designed to determine the quality of life and coping strategies of non-permanent teachers of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using mixed methods – sequential explanatory research design, 278 respondents were selected out of the 1,926 total population. Quantitative data were collected through the use of the World Health Organization’s Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) Scale and the Filipino Coping Strategies Scale (FCSS) and were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and Pearson Product Moment Correlation. Meanwhile, qualitative data were collected through a validated and pilot-tested focus group discussion (FGD) guide with transcripts subjected to content analysis. Data revealed that the lowest dimension of quality of life of the teachers is the physical aspect. Some of the most common coping strategies were cognitive reappraisal, problem solving, religiosity, and relaxation. The respondents differ in terms of religiosity, relaxation, emotional release, and overactivity along with their age, other sources of income, and marital status. Further analysis indicated a relationship between the four domains of quality of life and some types of coping strategies which showed how the quality of life is affected by specific coping practices. Recommendations as to policies and programs to address the issues identified were set.
