Guam " The Hub of the Pacific," Guam is the most developed island in the region. Following U.S. occupation after World War II, it remains an unincorporated United States territory. Guam continues to remain vital to the U.S. as a military base. Its main industry is tourism, primarily vacationers from Japan seeking a comparatively inexpensive tropical experience. Culturally, Guam is a fascinating mix of Micronesian, European, American, and Asian cultures. Under Spanish rule for more than 300 years prior to 1900, Spanish and Roman Catholic influences are still very evident. In recent years the native Chamorro population has fought hard to retain their identity amid the influence of America and Asia. In spite of Liebenzell's long history in Micronesia (1906 in Chuuk, 1929 in Palau), an active ministry did not begin here until the 1960s. For about 20 years, Guam served primarily as a "supply depot" for missionaries spread throughout the Pacific. As churches throughout Micronesia began to grow, the practice of sending pastoral candidates outside of Micronesia for training was not working. In the mid-seventies church and mission leaders organized two Bible institutes: in Chuuk, the Micronesian Institute of Biblical Studies (MIBS), and in the Marshall Islands, the Marshalls Theological College. As the following years solidified Guam as an important hub of life in Micronesia, it seemed natural that a theological scholastic center be established there. In 1991

Understanding Discrimination against Immigrants LEGAL IMMIGRATION: PERMANENT RESIDENTS More than 60 million people have legally entered this country since its beginning, and about 10 million in the last decade, a figure that seems high but includes about 3 million undocumented aliens who were granted amnesty around the end of the 1980s. Immigrants, as defined by the , are persons lawfully admitted for permanent residence in the U.S. They arrive with permanent visas that have been applied for and issued abroad, or they adjust their status from temporary visitor to permanent resident. A visa is an official U.S. State Dept. document stamped or stapled on a page of a passport, and is obtained from any American consulate overseas or arranged via American officials or firms. Visas are either for permanent status (immigrant visas) or temporary status (nonimmigrant visas). A list of definitions appears below: immigrant = permanent residence by visa or visa adjustment alien = not born in the U.S., but may be a citizen or national (Phillipines) citizen = entitled to protection and the rights of citizenship (Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Guam, U.S. territories)

P ACIFIC I SLANDS R EPORT Pacific Islands Development Program/East-West Center CONGRESSMAN ROBERT A. UNDERWOOD Delegate from Guam U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. NEWS RELEASE February 15, 2002 CONGRESSMAN UNDERWOOD TELLS HOUSE BUDGET COMMITTEE GUAM AND THE TERRITORIES MERIT SPECIAL CONSIDERATION Congressman Robert A. Underwood again pushed for more Compact of Free Association impact aid and raising Medicaid caps, saying economic conditions in Guam and the territories merit special consideration. He testified today at the House Budget Committee's hearing on President Bush's Fiscal Year 2002 budget, which provides only $4.58 million in Compact impact aid for Guam, and less funding for the Department of Interior. The Congressman also took the opportunity to point out other Guam problems. "I am very concerned about the President's proposed budget for the U.S. territories," he said. "The U.S. territories have not fared as well (as the rest of the nation) and continue to face staggering double digit unemployment rates and dismal economic conditions." While supporting a tax cut, Congressman Underwood said the President's tax plan does not take into account the effect the cut will have on the territories, particularly Guam and the Virgin Islands, the only jurisdictions whose tax systems "mirror" the Internal Revenue Code. Unlike state governments, the Government of Guam would feel the blow of a tax cut because federal revenues collected in Guam remain in Guam. With no surplus, GovGuam's revenue stream would be greatly disrupted, and government services and the local economy would be affected. GovGuam is projecting $243 million in income tax revenues for 2001 and anticipates the tax plan to reduce revenues by $30-$50 million.

CHAPTER III - METHODOLOGY This historical-comparative study of the language policies in Guam, the Philippines and Puerto Rico intended to systematically present the factors and social processes related to language maintenance and language shift in these areas. In particular, those factors related to nationalism and its role in native language maintenance were examined. In addition to contributing to a research area where systematic analysis has been found lacking (Fishman, 1972, 1977, 1991), strategies for formation of more effective and ethnoculturally sensitive language policies were recommended. Design Geographic Areas Guam : Guam, an unincorporated territory of the United States, is the largest and Southernmost island in the Marianas. The Island lies approximately 3,700 miles West-Southwest of Honolulu, Hawaii and 1,500 miles South of Tokyo, Japan. It is approximately 30 miles long and five to eight and a half miles wide. The population of Guam in 1990 was 133,152 (Department of Commerce, 1993, p. 1). Philippines : An archipelago of approximately 7,100 islands stretching 1,100 miles from North to South, the Republic of the Philippines is located off the Southeast coast of Asia. The population in 1990 was 66,647,000 (The World Almanac, 1992, p. 793).

Interior Requests Island Views on Habitual Residence Regulations PALIKIR, Pohnpei (FSM Information Service): January 23, 1997 - Mr. Allen Stayman, Director of the Office of Insular Affairs at the U.S. Department of the Interior, today requested the views of island Governors and Presidents of the freely associated states (FAS) on regulations relating to habitual residence of FAS citizens in United States territories. "I am hopeful that any regulations will acknowledge the contributions that FAS citizens make to the economies of Guam and Northern Marianas, and that they are tailored to continuing employment," Stayman said. On several occasions, Marshall Islands Ambassador Banny de Brum and FSM Ambassador Jesse Marehalau have requested and met with Director Stayman to press the concerns of their citizens for jobs in Guam and the CNMI. "I want to thank the ambassadors for their commitment, interest, and concern for the habitual residence issue, and their cooperation and support for the survey of FAS migrants to Guam, the CNMI and Hawaii," Stayman said. The compacts of free association between the United States and the FAS (Federated States of Micronesia, Palau and the Marshalls) allow FAS citizens to enter the United States and its territories for work, residence, and education. This compact right of residence, however, may be limited when it comes to the United States insular areas, including Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI).
