Batanes in the crosshairs: Resisting Chinese territorial revisionism and U.S.-Japanese militarization in the Luzon Strait

Batanes in the crosshairs: Resisting Chinese territorial revisionism and U.S.-Japanese militarization in the Luzon Strait

The pre-colonial Ivatan society, defined by its fortified idjangs (mountain fortresses) and autonomous participation in the Maritime Jade Road, was a sovereign entity. To subsume their heritage under a Chinese claim based on ancient trade networks or proximity is an epistemic assault.

Despite having left ICC, Phl cannot evade probe

“Withdrawal from the Rome Statute does not discharge a state party from the obligations it has incurred as a member. Consequently, liability for the alleged summary killings and other atrocities committed in the course of the war on drugs [during the Duterte administration] is not nullified or negated.”

Marcos Jr.’s first week: focus on economy woes

In his first Cabinet meeting last Tuesday, Ferdinand Marcos Jr. announced that economic recovery takes precedence over all concerns under his administration and that his economic managers would set the “central policy.”

Balik-Tanaw | God will carry us on eagle’s wings

It is a daunting task if we think of it without God in the equation. This call of God to discipleship today is not far more or far less formidable than in the time of the apostles. The contexts are very different but there is one constant: it is God who calls us to be laborers for his harvest. When the going gets tough, God will carry us on eagle’s wings. When faced with death, we know that it is life in God that awaits us.

Balik-Tanaw | Showing love to all Gods community

The Gospel this week is another well known verse in John 3:16-18 that talks of how God so loved the world, God sent Jesus to die for our sins so that we may have eternal life. But John goes on in the following verses that are less familiar to many to say remind us that Jesus was sent to save the World not to condemn it.

Kung ang mensahe ni Heydarian ay hindi makita ang “independent” foreign policy dahil sa nangyari sa Reed Bank, iyon ang dapat na titulo ng artikulo.

Basura sa Philippine Collegian

Higit pa sa isang komplikadong telenobela, malinaw ang maniobra ng papaalis nang liderato ng Philippine Collegian para atakehin ang kalayaan sa pamamahayag. Sa halip na pagbutihin ang paglilingkod sa mga estudyanteng tagapaglimbag ng opisyal na publikasyon, ginugol nito ang oras para sampahan ng kaso ang tingin nila’y kaaway nila.

Pagmumuni-muni sa biyahe

Mainam ang paminsan-minsang pagbiyahe sa labas ng bansa para makita kung paanong ang mga bagay tulad ng palpak na LRT at MRT sa Pilipinas na unti-unti nang nagiging “normal” ay hindi talaga katanggap-tanggap.

COVID-19: Paracetamol, ibuprofen and other anti-fever drugs should be avoided

The WHO should not expect at this time, while the pandemic is raging, to find published clinical and population-based studies specifically showing these negative effects in COVID-19 patients. Their main concern should be to protect COVID-19 patients from unnecessary risks because of irrational use of anti-fever drugs.

The COVID-19 pandemic brings to the fore the economic divide

COVID-19 has laid bare the class contradictions in Philippine society. Not only has it exposed the private sector for what it is – a profiteering class of capitalists, but it has also exposed the government and its institutions for what they are – tools of the same profiteering class to ensure that they can continue profiting.

Rodrigo Duterte’s unnatural disasters

But in the Philippines, the links between environmental degradation and militarization are intimate. Government counterinsurgency campaigns have been most violent in the regions of the Philippines with natural and mineral resources that are largely untapped by extractive projects, whether it’s Mindanao in the south or the Cordilleras in the north. Brandon was shot because he opposed a hydropower project that would have displaced indigenous communities in the north, while to the south, indigenous Lumad leaders have been killed and schools dedicated to the teaching of sustainable agricultural practices occupied under the guise of anti-communism.
