Peace in Mindanao
PEACE IN MINDANAO The peace process in Mindanao still needs a lot of work. The path to peace on the Bangsamoro sector. The establishment of compromising and reaching of the meeting of minds has been conducted. What I want to see is how this will all played out. It is one big step and a giant leaf to a very narrow treacherous process to surpass from but the president assures that it will be done or happen when our countrymen will be willing to help them in their quest for peace. The people itself will have to give justification on the stipulation and not only must the president himself will be the one to fight for peace but also the people itself that must be as well involve for this is their nation to bring about the prospering of peace in the land. We all do want peace. But there is no real peace. Then has always been conflict. What action can we take in the name of peace? Can both sides change the politics of anger and resentment into a policy of cooperation? The Filipino’s lack of discipline encompasses several related characteristics. We have a casual and relaxed attitude towards time and space which manifest itself into lack of precision and compulsiveness, in poor time management and in procrastination. We are impatient and unable to delay gratification or reward, resulting in the use of shortcuts, in skirting the rules (pasulot syndrome) and foolhardiness. We are guilty of ningas cogon, starting out projects with full vigor and interest which abruptly die down leaving things unfinished. Our lack of discipline often results in inefficient, wasteful work system, violation of rules leading to more serious transgression and a casual work ethic leading to carelessness and lack of follow-through. The path to peace is always a sensitive topic to obtain. In life there are no shortcuts and so we must be conscious not to show our weakness in character when we mean business. I just hope in this modernize world by while walking on the road with the

    In the “Medellín Document on Peace,” produced at the Latin American Episcopal Council (CELAM), violence is said to be one of the gravest problems in Latin America. Violence is violation of personhood. The use of the word personhood in the definition of violence gives the implication of totality, so violence is therefore “an act that depersonalizes.” Violence is not simply war, but extends beyond into society as institutional violence. Therefore, there are three levels of violence which comes about: society injustice where the majority of the population is powerless, the revolt of the powerless in an attempt to gain power, followed by the repression by those who have power.…

    Recently I read an article by Hal Pepinsky titled Peacemaking in the classroom. This article is all about how Mr. Pepinsky used conflict resolution and peacemaking in a college setting. To understand where he is coming from in this article a little background is needed. Mr. Pepinsky is a college professor who taught a class for second year criminal justice majors. He thought this class would be a great place to experiment with peacemaking and conflict resolution. He started this by throwing out the traditional grading scale and changing it to a pass or fail. Although he was laughed out of a university for this thought process, he found his footing with a different idea. When at a new school he started with a new system.…

    One of the potential contributors to the large productivity gap between developed and developing countries are low quality infrastructure. In the summer of 2012, India suffered the largest power failure in history, which plunged 600 million people into darkness for two days. Even under normal circumstances, however, the Indian government estimates that shortages currently amount to about ten percent of demand at current prices, and many consumers have power only a few hours a day. In the 2005 World Bank Enterprise Survey, one-third of Indian business managers named poor electricity supply as their biggest barrier to growth. According to these managers, blackouts are far more important than other barriers that economists frequently study, including taxes, corruption, credit, regulation, and low human capital. (Hunt Allcott, Allan Collard-Wexler, and Stephen D. O’Connell 2014)…

    Abstract: For nearly forty years a violent conflict has been raging in Mindanao where the Moros are fighting for independence from the Philippine state. On August 5th 2008 the peace negotiation panels of the Government of the Philippines and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front were set to sign a Memorandum of Agreement on Ancestral Domain (MoA-AD), a final stepping stone on the way to a comprehensive peace agreement. However, a well-organised wave of protest swept from Christian settlers in Mindanao to the Supreme Court in Manila which declared the agreement unconstitutional. This paper presents a chronology of events surrounding the debate, analyses the arguments used in support and opposition of the MoA-AD and searches for causes of its demise, before looking at lessons to…
