http://www.geocities.com/benign0/agr-disagr/2-jeeps.html

Extractions: Leaf through any tourism promotional material released by Philippine tourism bodies government or private and chances are, youll come across at least one picture of the jeepney; that symbol of Filipino ingenuity, creativity, festivity, or whatever virtues we imagine ourselves to possess. Step onto any Manila street and you immediately witness the effects of the reign of the King of the Road. No other icon of Philippine culture epitomises more the utter pompousness of the Filipino. For in trumpeting the jeepney as the symbol of our ingenuity, we not only provide insight to the dismal levels of our standards of ingenuity but also proclaim to the world that we find no reason to change for the better. If these machines are considered such priceless gems of Philippine culture, then why are they banned from Manilas premier tourist showcase the fragrant Roxas (formerly Dewey) Boulevard? Jeepneys defy systemic approaches to developing efficient mass transit in Philippine cities and have become eyesores wherever they turn empty lots and even streets into de facto terminals. A conscious effort on the part of jeepney drivers and owners to induce loud rumbling noises from their mufflers (or lack of them) whenever they rev their machines turns the metropolis into a seething cauldron that is an assault on the senses. And the persistence of a design dating back to the 40s is a testament to an utter lack of innovation and progress in taste, practicality, and attitudes. So while we wait for jeepneys to become uncompetitive (price wise fat chance), millions of dollars are spent on massive infrastructure projects, private motorists bear the brunt of various vehicle reduction schemes, Manilas air continues to increase in corrosiveness, and the average commuter remains short-changed in safety and comfort.

Extractions: Focus on Filipino Americans: The Best Kept Secret Last December 2003, the Asian Business Association, Inc., in partnership with Wells Fargo, Filipinas Magazine, IW Group, Inter Trend Communications and Dae Advertising presented a seminar "The Growing Importance of the U.S. Asian Market: Focus on Filipino Maericans-The Best Kept Secret." This seminar was presented to different business groups to help them understand and tap into this growing ethnic market. Filipino Americans have been in the United States since the 16th century, yet very little is known about them. Why do they seem invisible? With $50 billion in buying power, what makes this 2-million strong community tick? And who do we send these all too? Just how big is our family? You can’t begin to imagine. We count as family members our nuclear family of 3 and often 4 generations, each with an average family size of 4.2. Then our inlaws each of which is acknowledged with a term, much like Eskimos have 20 words for snow and Asians 20 words for rice. Terms like balae, biyanan, bayaw, manugang, hipag and bilas ." Next we embrace our parents close friends into the family by calling them all Tito and Tita, or Aunt and Uncle.

Ambassador Antonio C. Modena thanked the municipality of Haifa and the Kastra Center for giving the Embassy the opportunity to show the vibrant color of Filipino culture, the country's products and invite them to visit the Philippines. "While many Israelis already know about the Filipinos because of their work here, not many know of the Philippines. This is a chance for us to show who we are, what we are and what we stand for," Ambassador Modena said. As a token of the Embassy's appreciation, the Ambassador presented Mayor Yahav of Haifa and the Kastra center a painting of Filipino artist Emmanuel Garibay, who donated two of his works for the occasion. Mayor Yahav thanked Ambassador Modena and noted he is already arranging for the visit of Manila Mayor Lito Atienza and that as a sister-city of Manila, he hopes to see more of the warmth of Philippine culture in Haifa.

Extractions: The Cyberbayan page started in October 1994 as one of the first web pages served from the Philippines under the title "Soc.Culture.Filipino" . It started as an index of the dozen or so Philippine web sites on line at the time and grew to over 500 links by 1996. It became nearly impossible to keep them updated and more current lists were available so I retired the "SCF" page and shifted its the focus to first person accounts and pictures of my own Philippine experiences acquired during my Foreign Service tours there. Thanks for taking the time to let me share my Philippine experiences. After the surfing the links below I invite you to take a look at my personal web site super.nova.org where you will find a wide range of other orginal material on technology, photography, motorcycles and other things which interest me.
