PLENARY SESSION ON MONETARY AND FISCALPOLICIES

Introduction by: Edgardo J. Angara Chairman

The contraction in business activity the economy is now ex­periencing is unprecedented in our postwar economic history. a~itenaturally, this brings to the fore an important aspect of PO~ICY'making by the aovernment - the conduct of monetary and fiscal

policies.It is well known that an economic system composed of decen-

tralized private markets will not provide for itself a monetary andfiscal framework. This function belongs to government. But how

MEMORANDA

24 February 1981

MEMORANDUM NO.2

FOR: THE 80ARD OF REGENTSFROM: PRESIDENT EDGARDO J. ANGARA

In view of my having been drafted as candidate for the Senate.my term of office will end upon the filing of a certificate of candl­dacy.

The UP Presidency is a very important post not simply onaccount of the UP's educational leadership but also because of theexpertise and valuable advice its scholars provide to the country andits government. In that sense, the UP Presidency is a position of rarepublic interest.

It is, therefore. of utmost importance that the search for thenext President be thorough and well-planned in advance. The Uni­versity. I believe, will be served well not only by a wise choice of thenext President but the man or woman so selected should be fullyprepared, as much as possible, before the actual assumption ofoffice. When chosen early, the next President can be introduced tothe University constituency as welt as given a thorough orientationand briefing on all aspects of University administration.

Based on the record, the Board in the past had taken into ac­count certain criteria when choosing a President. The more import­ant of them are the following: scholarship/intellectual achievements:vision; credibility. rapport with UP constttuenctes/abnltv to relatewith people. abmiy to protect the University's integrity; manage­ment ability; present position; availability; and health. This Boardnaturally will have suggestions of its own.

RECOMMENDATION:

I. therefore. recommend that the Board constitute a SearchCommittee to make a national search for qualified persons from theacademe or outside to be the next President of the University. TheCommittee shall be composed of from 5 to 7 members, majority ofwhom should come from the Board and one as a representative ofthe faculty and staff of the University, the President of the UPAlumni Association, and a representative of the student body. Irecommend that the Search Committee submit its report of theBoard through its Chairman not later than May 15th 1987. I fur­ther recommend that the Office of the President be authorizedto provide the Committee such support as facilities. equipment andpersonnel as the Committee may need or request.

government chooses to carry out this functionbas far-reaching im­plications. The choice is a key determinant of the relative sizes ofthe government and private sector. If it decides to spend more ongoods and services which then requires raising more taxes, a shift ofresources from households and businesses to the government sectorresults.

Three years -of recession. more than anything else, haveprompted a reassessment of how monetary and fiscal policies shouldbe conducted. Many questions have been asked but an urgent one ­answers to which the public eagerly awaits - is this: What is anappropriate way to conduct monetary and fiscal policies to help liftthe economyout of the recession, achieve sustained growth. preventthe outbreak of double-digit inflation. and safeguard political free­

dom?The business sector. in particular, is keenly interested in the

monetary and fiscal framework that the Aquino government is goingto institute. Does it have the potential to deliver a trading environ- 21

ment stable enough to allow firms and businesses to carry out pro­duction and investment activities with minimum risk?

Having been bitten once by inappropriate monetary and fiscalpolicies, business it seems, has become twice shy and philosophical.

Business knows how difficult it is to be crowded out of thecredit and financial market by government borrowing. When govern­ment tried to finance its budget deficits by issuing interest-bearingdebt instruments, nominal interest rates went through the roof. Asa result, many businessmen were forced to close shop, and shelve orabandon new investment projects. They found it unwise to committhemselves to high interest rates when the demand for their pro­duct was uncertain.

And when government tried to finance those deficits throughthe printing press, the price instability generated was equallytroublesome. Business was shocked by increases in raw materialprices. It likewise faced new wage demands from their workers:seeing their earnings eroded by price increases, workers pressed forupward adjustments in their nominal wages and in some cases,forced a reopening of employment contracts that were not even upfor negotiation yet.

Given this experience, business has also begun to ask: Is therean institutional arrangement that can prevent a recurrence of thefiscal excesses witnessed under the previous administration? Can aconstitutional clause that provides for an independent monetaryboard reduce the inherent inflationary bias of the Central Bankwhen it is strongly influenced by the fiscal authority?

The search for new institutional arrangements that will restraingovernment's hand so budget deficits will not persist has been qet­ting some prominent treatment lately. Our bad experience with agreatly expanded government sector helps bring this about. The ex­ternal-debt problem, for example, which occupies much of our guestspeaker's time these days, is very much traceable to the large andchronic budget deficits of the past administration. We would like tohear from our guest speaker where we stand in regard to the neqo­tiations to restructure our US$26 billion external debt.

To alleviate the grave unemployment and undermployment,the government launched an economic recovery program which isdirected toward rural development and the improvement of the in­frastructures supportive of the agricultural sector and small andmedium enterprises.' The target of the economic recovery programis to create at least one million jobs annually in the rural areas andthereby give a boost to effective demand of the masses of the peo­ple. In turn, the additional income will have multiplier effect onthe demand for basic commodities produced by local enterprises.Excess productive capacity exists in many manufacturing industries.We would appreciate an assessment of the economic recovery pro­gram which is being implemented through the fiscal instrument ofpublic expenditures.

The Aquino government launched a tax reform program whichis intended not only to collect much needed revenue but also toalter the distribution of the tax burden more equitably. Many ofthe features which tended to favor selected sectors have been modi­fied to simplify the administration of these taxes. Many levies oncommodities and subsidies to certain industries which were felt tobe inequitcus have been modified which others were removed out­right. There is now a decided shift of policies towards privatizationof many so called public enterprises which have proven to be a drainon the national budget in the past. The business sector will be in­terested to know what progress has been achieved in the field ofprivatization.

In raising a number of questions, I hope I have made a suffi­cient introduction of the topic of this session on monetary andfiscal policies".

Minister Jaime Ongpin, our guest speaker, is at the center ofboth monetary and fiscal policy-making. His pronouncements, tobe sure, will be the authoritative statement of policy of the Philip.pine government today.

Opening Remarks of President Edgardo J. Angara at the SolidarityConference on February 7 & 8, 1987, Ramon Magsaysay CenterFoundation.

Only five days ago, the 1986 Constitution was ratified over­whelmingly in a plebiscite unprecedented for its almost universalturnout and peaceful conduct. The plebiscite results reflect the peo­ple's will for a constitutional democracy and a clear consensus that

the people want peace and reject violence.We, therefore. gather today to formulate a Filipino agenda for

the 21st century under very auspicious circumstances. Despite thepains and problems of transition in the past year, there is now a firmsense of confidence. This is not to be belittle our many problems.Our people still are not any less worried about their jobs or of thesafety of their homes and persons. But they demonstrate that theyare not fazed and frightened by the immensity of these problems,rather they want to do something about them.

Most, if not all Filipinos today feel that we have the nationalcapacity to cut our problems down to size. The task is how toharness that confidence behind clear and specific programs ofaction.

This is, to me, the reason why we are holding this conferencetoday. We are trying to pick some of the best minds in the countryin order to formulate clear and concrete programs for the rebuildingof key institutions and process.

No one really believes we can solve atl our political, social andeconomic problems before the century turns. Rather we are lookingfor ways that would make it possible for us more than to surviveuntil the 21st century in spite of these problems. Even if we onlyexcite our countrymen into thinking about the alternatives we pro­pose, then this seminar would have succeeded already. In other

words, we claim not so much that our consensus here is the nation's,but that it should start the building of a national consensus on possi­ble approaches to our problems.

The recommendations made by a diverse group of intellectuals,public servants, military and civilian leaders, academics and pro­fessionals in the eleven Solidarity seminars, contained, as I see it, six

basic premises.First, there was a rapid erosion of personal responsibility

among citizens as government grew all too-powerful and all too-in­

terfering during the past decade and a half.Admittedly, there were some who tried to keem small fires of

individual freedom and dissent burning during the long night of

repression. but for everyone of them, there were scores who pre­ferred to keep their separate peace. Thus. we had many who left forforeign lands, there to look for returns on their skills and talents notpossible here. And many of those who chose to stay became poli­tically apathetic, engaging on private and ritual castigations withgovernment's many faults without considering their own default.

Second, only a national or collective sacrifice can solve ourproblems. Christian or Muslim, peasant or landlord, public servantor private citizen, soldier or priest, politician or bureaucrat, workersor intellectual - we all must put aside personal interest and petty

. misunderstanding if we are to get to the 21st century and beyond.Third, there is need for deliberate infusion of values and ethics

rooted in Our culture in the public service, politices, military, busi­ness and the educational system.

Fourth, there is no lack of people in government, the civilservice, military and business who posses personal integrity andleadership potentials.

Fifth, Our leaders in government, business, military, the pro­fessions and the community at large must give personal examplesin their private behavior and public conduct. For social transforma­tion to succeed in our country, leaders must live and be judgedunder the same moral, professional and legal standards as thefollowers.

And sixth, honest to goodness management must be put backinto our economy. with structural defects understood and remedied.Our potential for growth, equal to, or even more than that of ourAsian neighbors in the past, had been sqaundered by mismanage-

ment and ambivalent focus on either industry or agriculture.These underlying premises as I gather them should be reflected

in a national agenda for the future. Whether the task be pushing fora comprehensive agrarian reform, or coordinating private sector ini­tiative with social policies, or reducing delays and inequities in theadministration of justice - the process must be given with faith inour people's capacity and end with a nation all the better for theexperience of a collective sacrifice,

I do not need to go into details about the major problems thatwe have been studying since the Solidarity series began last March.Neither should I remind you that whatever we do now has long termrepercussions. It's sufficient to say that the agenda we should pre­pare is one that addresses ·the current problems even as it takes intoaccount the long term implications of the solutions we adopt.

So, in the next two days, we shall discuss how an agrarian re­form program can be realistically implemented. How the schools,communities and other social institutions can strengthen a nationalvalue system. How the military can push rather than pull downdevelopment. How our new democracy can be made realty partici­patory. How the nation can avoid being ripped apart by muslim orcommunist insurgencies. How the bureaucracy can fulfill its poten­tials as motive force for progress. How the country can act effective­ly within the international environment. How justice can balanceright and duty, freedom and obligation. How economic growth canbe accompanied by social development.

Closing Remar~s of President Edgardo J. Angara at the Solidarity

Conference on February 1 & 8, 1981, Ramon Magsaysay Center

Foundation.

Please bear with me as I take a few minutes more of your timeas I try to pick some strands that run through the two-day discus­sions.

In the the year 2000. It has a ring of remoteness. From thiscentury to the next, our consciousness it seems are not yet fullyalert to the coming jump.

But a simple counting on our fingers shows that the year 2000is only 13 years away. Less than the time it will take your newly­

born child to get a high school diploma.How far can we push positive change in the next 13 years in

order to our country peaceably to the 21st century? Will thedemocratic promise be realized and can it survive the challengesof the right and the left? Will our economy see a productive ruralsector and a vibrant industry in spite of high debt service ratios,lnsurqencv and growing protectionism aborad?

Meanwhile, every minute we spend pondering those questions,

we see an average of three Filipinos born and one dying. After eachday of looking for what needs to be done, 3570 more Fitipinos areadded to the' population. Will the projected 71 to 77 million Fili­pinos in the year 2000 still carry the unreduced baggage of today'sproblems as they look for food, jobs and homes sufficient for all?Or would our current political, social and economic problems pullus down even before we get to 21st century problems.

It seems to me that the central issue is how to confront now

rather than later, the political, economic and social problems whilewe try to gain precious time to rebuild our democratic institutions.

The present situation spells hard times, with hard issuesneeding hard decisions. But that is what growing as a nation is allabout _ making decisions. "Society," writes the economic histo­rian Dr. Warrent J. Samuels, "is a decision-making process, that is,a process of making choices." And, in either social change or social

control, the first step is social choice.What areas of our current national life demand for urgent

choices to be made? We have identified ten: agrarian reform, cul­ture and values, military and development, government structure,the Mindanao problem, bureaucracy, foreign relations, environmentand ecology, the economy and the administration of justice.

In agrarian reform, we have choices to make about its scope,application and targets. As to all these, however, we all a.g.r~,agrarian reform should be total and be at the top of the Filipino

agenda. It should include private as well as public lands, includingnatural resources. Agrarian reform should be a package measure in­volving, aside from the land grant, technology. credit and access tomarket. And it should be put into immediate effect.

As for culture and values, we all agreed on the need for a trueFilipino culture. Our country is blessed by the richness of Our re­gional and ethnic cultures whose positive aspects we can drawstrength from. There is need for a common language to be used ininstruction, mass communication and in the public service. We alsorecognize that values and ethics should infuse our national life, inthe conduct of public affairs as in the individual realms of behavior.

There is a consensus that the military tradition be restored,maintained and promoted. Military tradition in the sense of a mili­tary respecting civilian supremacy. That it remains a professionalmilitary performing military duties, protecting the citizens andguaranteeing the security of the nation.

This should start with a reorganization devoid of political in­fluences, anchored on the need for professionalism. Can the militaryfight the insurgency? They would have to. The armed solution how­ever must be complemented by socio-economic strategies addressingthe three major demands of insurgents - agrarian reform, equal

justice and responsive social services.

On the structure of government, the nation, six days ago, madea decision at the polls. Time witt tell whether the decision is wise.But already questions are raised regardil')g public accountability andthe effectiveness-of the political structure established under the NewConstitution in coping with the requirements of the 21st century.

The settlement of the age-old grievances of our muslim bro­thers should be consistent with national unity and sovereignty. Poli­tical decisions must be made to give them a fair share in policy­making. Economic decisions must be made regarding private andpublic investment in Mindanao. The need for social services such aseducation and manpower training, health, and employment in areaswhere our muslim brother lives. The nation must pay extra etten­tion .to them to uplift the quality of life in Mindanao and make up

for the neglect of the past.

Do we consider the bureaucracy as a mere appendage of theadrnlnlstratlon under which they serve? Many public administrationexperts have extolled the quality of our bureaucracy. The mainquestion is how do we restore the tradition of an autonomous andpublic service-oriented bureaucracy immune from undue influencesand from changes in the political leadership?

Inf foreign relations, the national interest is our primary con­sideration. Sovereignty, territorial integrity and the welfare of ourpeople are key components of our national interest. We must striveto be a self-reliant and less dependent country. The Ministry of

Foreign Affairs must be strengthened and our diplomatic servicesprofessionalized and oriented toward a more dynamic role.

Environmental issues need to be urgently appreciated becausethe mindless destruction and abuse of our natural resources havereached a crisis point. Government must take the lead in environ­mental conservation as mandated by the New Constitution. We musttake specific measures now.

Government the business sector and labor have to work handin hand not ani; for economic recovery and growth, but also forsocial progress. Decisions based on the free market should not ig­nore the need for equity and social qrowrh. In a nation where closeto two-thirds of the population battle with one form of poverty orthe other, economic growth must be taken to mean at the very leastsufficient food, housing and jobs.

Broad reforms in the administration of justice should start withlegal education and reach all the way up to the composition of theBench and the Bar. Law is nothing if it does not bring even-handedjustice, to the poor as to the rich, and to the powerful as to theweak. .Pmhlems of recruitment, reward and competence still plague

our justice system.It seems clear at this point that--..beh"ind all the decisions or 23

choices that have to be made, is a vision of what Philippine societyshould be.

What vision do I read in the national agenda - a package ofdecisions and choices - that we have produced here? It is a visionof the Philippines 85 a society where the citizen is free and thecountry self-reliant. It is a society where every Filipino who iswilling to work is given that opportunity. It is a society that standsstrongly for change benefitting the many who are poor. It is asociety who places a high premium on the-ways of peace and non­violence. And, finally, it is a society that should advance the na­tional goals of peace, freedom, justice and prosperity through edu­

cation.Thank you.

Welcome Address of President Edgardo J. Angara at the ProjectLaunching of the Philippine Philharmonic Society, Inc. OrchestraEndowment Fund on 13 February 1987, Puerto Real Gardens, In­tramuros.

This afternoon, we take great pride in presenting one of ourcountry's finest natural resources - our gift of music, exemplifiedby our national orchestra, the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra.

Like alt of our natural resources, this one must be preserved,nurtured and allowed to flourish. Like our country's wealth fromsea 'and soil, this talent for music must be used to enrich us all ­not just Filipinos but all music lovers who come to our shores.Hopefully, too, our national orchestra can bring the richnessof ourmusic to other countries, before the audiencesof the world.

But it takes more than talent to nourish the Philippine Philhar­

monic Orchestra. It will take more than artistic commitment tokeep our musicians together and even to keep our national orchestraalive.

In other countries, such as those whom some of you here re­present, the national orchestras are subsidized by their governments.Such, too, is the case in the Philippines. We are thankful to our qov­ernment for this.

But we in the private sector, the academe and some of ourfriends in the diplomatic and foreign community realize that theresponsibility for preserving, nurturing and making this musical re­sources flourish also rests on our shoulders. It was for this reasonthat, today, we are launching the orchestra endowment fund pro­ject. We are trying to do our share, not only because we ourselveshave been enriched by the music of our national orchestra, but alsobecause there are so many more of our people who deserve to besimilarly enriched; including those whose talents can be inspired byand developed through the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra.

We thank you all for joining us here in an expression of sup­port for what we are trying to do. Most of all, we thank the Presi­dent of our Republic, Her Excellency, Mrs. Corazon C. Aquino, forhonoring us with her presence, in a clear reiteration of the import­ance that our government gives to the preservation and nourishmentof our musical treasures.

In the next hour or so, we shall be treated to this special per­formance of the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra and some of ourcountry's finest musical personalities. Let us sit back and enjoy our­selves, as they demonstrate-beyond any doubt - that they richlydeserveour encouragement and patronage.

Thank you very much.

Speech of President Edgardo J. Angara at the Joint Meeting og theRotary Clubs of Baguio, Mother Club; Baguio, North; Baguio South;and Benguer. Nevada Hotel, Baguio City on 16 January 1987.

This is the season for national debate on our future asa coun­try. The Draft Charter is being discussed, explained, debated andwill be put to us for a vote on February 2, less than 20 days fromnow, So what I want to discuss today is to extend an invitation toan exercise in soul searching because the debate going on now in atrue sense is a self-examination by the nation. I would like to invite

you to join me in this soul searching, not so much to provide ans­

wers but to ask questions.Let me begin this brief remarks with a question: Why is the

Philippines less peaceful and less prosperous than our neighbors inthe region?

Now allow me to take you a little bit to history. In 1935,when President Quezon was inaugurated as the first President ofthe President Quezon was inaugurated as the first President of thePhilippine Commonwealth - at that time international economy

wasalso not good and the threat of World War II was on the horizon- he said in his inaugural speech: "Under the Commonwealth ourlife may not be one of ease and comfort but rather of hardship andsacrifice ... I appeal to your patriotism and summon your nobilityof heart so that we may, united in the common endeavor, oncemore dedicate ourselves to the realization of our national destiny."

Looking back now, we realize that indeed we have gonethrough so much hardship and sacrifice in the lastseveraldecades.Wesurvived those tean years and the world war that President Quezonsaw coming. We passed through the grant of independence, which healso foresaw, and the rebuilding after the war years. And we havepassed through so much more which Quezon could not have fore­seen.

But 1 ask you, have we realized our national destiny? Andwhat is our national destiny? If we equate our national destiny withpeace and prosperity for our nation, then Quezon, if alive today,perhaps would be a very disappointed person.

For the historical fact is that from the days of the Common­wealth through the post-independence period to the present, ourdreams of. a peaceful and prosperous country have yet to be realized.All of the country's crop of leaders, generation after generation,have told us that the day will come, peace and prosperity. The rhe­

toric still remains. But its translation to reality has yet to be seen.For how else can you describe a nation where two out of

three Filipinos consider themselves poor. And one out of two Fili­pinos feel unsafe in our streets. But I am sure you don't need statis­tics to tell you that we are nowhere nearer to peaceand prosperity

today than in 1935.It is rather frustrating that we had spent much effort and

energies to avoid getting to where we are now. Over the decades.we have tried a number of political experiments-and economic stra­tegies for development to actualize peace and progress.We enduredcolonial rule. We fought for the blessings of independence and met

its coming with hope and optimism.The subsequent years of independence, of self-government,

howver saw our hopes frayed at its edges asthe ruthless competitionfor power overrode the varying visions politicians and governmentsoffered to us.

In the 50s and the 60s, we tried import substitution in orderto push Philippine industries. The Filipino First policy was enun­ciated by President Garcia, formulated and implemented. We setup in the 70s big industrial projects in order to leapfrog agricultureto industry. Today we are again redirecting to agriculture. Wehave come full circle and yet we are, I feel, worse off than when we

started.In 1972, we traded-off our political rights and liberties for

more bread and security. We would realize later that by doing sowe had lost both freedom and food. In February, we finally recao­tured some of those freedoms, but after counting the ruins of thepast, the accounting left us with a $27 billion debt and a festeringinsurgency. Our long-standing dreams of peace and prosperitytherefore have been replaced by a nightmarish economy and insur­gency.

So I ask, when will the national odyssey come to an end?Or asked differently - when will our journey to our national des­tiny begin? What does the Filipino really want? Because the realityis we have lost precious time and we have squandered precious

opportunities.Now we are coming again to a political crossroads - not

really political alone but a national crossroads - when we are"askedto vote for or against the Draft Constitution, We see that in the1987 Draft Constitution another vision is being offered to us.

Another path to progress, peace and prosperity. It offers a freshalternative although not necessarily fresh in the sense of being newbecause we have known this before. I refer to the offer embodiedin .this Charter to return to liberal democracy and an economicsystem that encourages private enterprise while directing Govern­ment to intervene for the poor and the underprivileged.

The Draft Constitution offers a renovated Presidential 'svs­tern of government as a shield against the concentration of powerin one person or organ. It distributes qovemmenta! authorityamong three equal branches - the presidency, the legislature andthe judiciary. And it equips Congress and the courts with innovativeweapons to check the future rise of an authoritarian president.Among these, as you may already know, or have read, are legisla­tive and judicial checks on the President's emergency powers, legis­lative sharing of appointments and more express powers vested inthe Supreme Court.

An important provision in the Draft Constitution brings inelements of direct democracy to the political system through asystem of initiative and referendum. When they will have been final­ly fleshed out by the future Congress, our people can then directlypropose and enact laws or amend, modify and reject laws alreadypassed after due petition through the systems -of initiative andreferendum.

As the country's economic blueprint for the future, the DraftConstitution envisages national progress as the result of the partner­ship between the private sector and government. The private sectorunder the Constitution is recognized as the primary engine foreconomic development and is given latitude as well as incentivesiGovernment, however, it has been made clear, is directed and man­dated to pursue social justice, so that opportunities, income and

wealth will be more equitably disrtibuted. These various provisionstaken together form and present a heavy social agenda for the futurefor the benefit of the poor, the underprivileged and the under­represented.

That, in a nutshell, is the political and economic plan that the1986 Draft Constitution envisions for the Filipinos. As the day ofdecision for its ratification or rejection approaches, a palpable senseof urgency, I suspect, can be felt.

What adds to this sense of urgency is the painful truth thatnow more than ever peace and prosperity delicately hang on thebalance. Fodav's quest for peace is not simply maintenance of lawand order but, to me, of confronting head-on and substantively thechallenge posed by a competing ideology and way of life. It is pre­cisely because the systems that we have tried in the past may haveproved to be ineffectual that the alternative offered to us by someof our countrymen appears to be attractive to others. Communismindeed feeds on the frustrations of people.

We were in Cagayan de Oro in September to bring the Alum­ni Institute to our alumni in Mindanao. This time we were hearingnot only the runbling of Muslims, we were also hearing the frustra­tions and complaints of Christians. They complain of neglect andthey are beginning to talk of independence rather than simplyautonomy.

To me, this is a very serious problem affecting the inteqritvand indivisibility of our republic.

Many reasons could be given why the Philippines has beenmoving around in circles. I think we are one country that has beenoverenalvzed. Some blame the lack of progress on Our culture, onour tribalism, on our sense of fatalism, and on our excessive toler­ance for waste. Others cite the vestiges of colonialism. All theseanalysts may be right. But I ask you, isn't it high time that we faceup to the reality that we alone ... we ourselves and no other areresponsible for pushing this nation to the edge, Let us not look forscapegoats. Let us look at ourselves.

It certainly would take more than the most perfect Constitu­tion, the most enlightened national leadership or even the mostcomprehensive economic plan to turn around this country.

So let me end this remark as I began. Let me ask not onequestion but several questions. What is the missing ingredient inour pursuit of peace and prosperity? Is national progress lackingin our country because we think, behave, conduct ourselves and act

as Hocanos, Taqaloqs. Bikolanos. Iionggos, Cebuancs, Muslims,Capampangans - rather than as Filipinos? Is maldistrfbution ofwealth in this country so deep and wide becaise the ruling elite,whther they are businessmen or civic leaders or bureaucrats or poli­ticians, had become self-interested that they only take care of theirown welfare as well as that of their Own class? Have we becomea nation of dependents wno so rely on relatives, ccrnpadres andpadrtnos for advancement, even rely on government to provide jobsthat we have become a nation whose spirit of resourcefulness anddrive have become weakened? Have all these things irrevocablyplaced progress beyond Our reach?

I leave those questions to you. I do not know the answers.But I leave them to you as part of this national soul-searching we aregoing through.

Thank you very much and good day.

Speech of President Edgardo J. Angara during the Induction ofOfficers of the Camar;nes Norte Press Association, Inc. in Daet,CamarinesNorte on 21 January 1987.

The Daily Express case poses larger issues regarding Govern­ment and the media than that simple fact that its' shutdown wasdictated by financial loss. For intertwined with the commercialaspect is the question whether a newspaper - owned Or under thecontrol of Government - can ever remain free and independent.That the Daily Express has been outspokenly critical of Govern­ment lends importance to the case. Thematter cannot be laid torest without Government laying down a clear and categoricalpolicy that its participation in media will not be at the expenseof free and independent expression.

It is of COurse no fault of the present Government that ithas acquired a slew of print and broadcast media facilities. Severalnewspapers, inlcuding the Daily Express, more than twenty radiostations and television Channels 4, 9 and 11 have accidentally comeunder Government ownership. Some of these were inherited fromthe old administration; the others were sequestered, However,Government's control and operation of these facilities has raisedserious questions about the future of media's nascent freedom andindependence.

These questions will persist until and unlesss the Governmentcomes out with a clear and unequivocal policy on its ownershipor control of media. Will this be a permanent arrangement? Or willits participation in media last only until it can sell the facilities itoperates to the private sector? Government has to come out withits policy now.

In the absence of such policy, a substantial number of printand broadcast media operate under Government ownership or in­fluence. Control of so much airtime and print space would inevit­ably raise continuing doubts about media's role as independentwatchdog.

Would Government-owned or controlled stations and news­papers risk being critical of Government policies and offical con­duct? Or would they be under pressure to sell the Governmentline? To put it another way, will reporters and broadcasters bitethe hand that feeds them?

After the Daily Express experience, all medlemen in Govern­ment-controlled facilities cannot avoid asking; How strong a biteturns the feeding hand into a censuring one?

The relationship between Government as employer and areporter as employee breeds difficulties unhealthy for both in thelong run.

The dilemma for Government is how to give substance toits pronounced commitment to press freedom and yet not renderitself defenseless even from its own ranks.

Press Secretary Teodoro Benigno presented the dilemma ofGovernment by saying: "It's not the kind of atmosphere that favorsdemocracy. If you move to control them (press) vcu're not practi­cing democracy anymore. If you don't move against them, the verydemocracy you want to protect might just crumble. So what do youdo? It

Well, what Government did was to close down the DailyExpress, a closure some perceive as political censorship.. No lessthan Supreme Court Justice Edgardo Paras has said that people,rightly or wrongly, see a violation of press freedom "especially sincethe Express is an oppositionist:' As you know, Justice Paras, alongwith Justice Ameurfina Melencio-Herrera and Justice Hugo Gutier­rez, dissented from the majority Supreme Court decision upholdingthe Express closure.

The Supreme Court decision appareqttv gave more weightto the financial aspects of the Daily Express case than to its ramlfl­cation on press freedom. It said the "dissipation of assets" and the"blocd-lettleq to the tune of P1.4 million each month" justifiesthe closure. Thus, the "delicate balance" that Government, accord­ing to presidential legal adviser Rene Saguisag, seeks in the caseseems to have been struck in favor of the commercial.

The effect of this brand of official pragmatism on othernewspapers or stations, cannot be salutary. A precedent seems tohave been set for prioritizing Government's financial interests overthe press freedom aspects of a case, no matter how tenuous. Thisprecedent now hangs like Darnocles' sword over sequestered paperslike Manila Journal, People's Journal and the Manila Daily Bulletin.

Government's participation in media has become unquestion­ably a difficult balancing act for it, Its ownership and control ofprint and media facilities has become, fairly or unfairly, the prismthrough which many will judge its commitment to press freedom.

No one will question the claim of Government to have themeans, or at least unfettered access to the means, whereby it caninform the public of its policies and programs. This principle in­volves the communication aspect of effective governance. At some

point, therefore, Government has to decide once and for all whetherit should have its own media facilities for its communication needs,or simply avail of the time and space in private media for thoseneeds.

One argument against the last option is that some privatemedia are still controlled by the opposition. Therefore, for the sakeof equal opportunity, Government must have a weapon equal tothose wielded by its opponents.

If public opinion compels Government to leave media inprivate hands, what would happen to the facilities it now owns?Would it not be unfair to deprive Government of the means foreffective communication with the people?

On the other hand, if Government maintains its media owner­ship to counter what it believes are irresponsible and excessiveattacks from some private media, doesn't that create unfair andunequal competition to all the rest, regardless of their politics?Won't the entire media industry cower in the face of Government'sunlimited resources? And what about Government's enormouscapacity to frighten advertisers away from news establishment thatmay have offended it? This prospect strikes fear in the heart ofevery publisher or station manager who knows of the advertisingvolume's effect on revenue.

So you see; the Daily Express case presents the larger require­ments of press freedom and demands a more clear cut Government'sstand on its ownership and control of media.

Statement of President Edgardo J. Angara read for him by GregAtienza during the NAMFREL Thanksgiving Masson 22 February'987, L8 Salle Greenhills.

I would have wanted to be present personally but for my pro­clamation last Friday as a senatorial candidate. lest my physicalpresence in your midst now be misunderstood as a circumstantialstain on NAMFREl's spotless record of non-partisanship, allow meto join you only in spirit as we express gratitude in prayer for thesuccess of the February 2 electoral exercise.

local as well as foreign observers were almost bored to deathby the generally uneventful conduct of the plebiscite. But we atNAMFREl knew that the fight for a free and honest electoral pro­cess had only been elevated from the realm of violence and thuggerythat marked its past. The fight is now in a much different realm

where the initiatives of reform defends against forces of regression.

The importance of the last plebiscite cannot be gainsaid.Not so much because of the actual resolution of the votes, but forits vindication of the maturity of the Filipinos' commitment to afree, honest and peaceful electoral process. It proved that the samecommitment we showed in the 1986 presidential potl was not aflash in the pan,

It is of critical importance to a democracy that when ques­tions are formally put before the people they are able to decideeffectively. For the electoral process that provides the setting forthis decision is the conduit of the vox populi, the untramelled ex­pression of which is democracy's lifeblood,

The year 1987 is a year of elections. Already we are pickingup for the senatorial elections in May. Then the local electionsshortly after. It is a comforting thought therefore that the successof the last plebiscite had began the weaning of our electoral processfrom a past which shames our people's democratic nature.

let me now express my gratitude to the NAMFREL NationalBoard and the volunteers for the cooperation and support extendedto me in the last plebiscite. It was a rare honor to have led theNAMFREl, although temporarily, in the absence of CommissionerChristian Monsod, I shall remember my association with NAMFRElas a memorable part of my life.

NAMFREL is a representation of the spirit of Philippinedemocracy. But it is important for our democracy's future that intime, NAMFREL's spirit would live on even without NAMFRELthe organization. NAMFREL should work for a future wherethere is no need for a NAMFREL. A future where vigilance andcourage, the institutional attributes of NAMFREL, are institu­tionalized instead in the entire body politic.

Dr. Macedawill be yo years old on January 31, 1987. The Board of Regents, atits meeting today, has unanimously voted for the extension of hisservice.

Dr. Maceda's achievements and contributions not only to theUniversity but also to the country in the field of music are beyondquestion, His professional career as a Concert Artist, Ethnomusico­logist, Composer, Philosopher, Pedagogue and Expert in Languageshas brought about considerable influence and opened new directionsfor future generations of scholars, artists and scientists to pursueand explore.

His pioneering efforts in Music Research in the Philippines.. used the establishment of the Department of Music Research atthe U.P. College of Music, now well-known among centers of musi­cology all over the world. On the other hand, his work in Contem­porary Music has provided our young composers a much deeperappreciation of the possible synthesis between modern expressionand traditional practices,

It is our hope, therefore, Mrs. President, that this recommen­dation merit your kind approval.

Dear Mr. Slndicc-

First of all, I appreciate your insightful response to my 11January 1987 column in the Manila Bulletin.

Admittedly, the painful truth is that our quest for "self-deter­mination and originality" has time and again been disrupted by his­toric forces, such as our being colonized in the past. We cannot eraseour past for both its positive and negative influences have workedtheir way into the national ethos. But what we can do is to separatethe positive from the negative and to try to weed out the latterthrough education, in all its forms. But here again, we are bam­pered by two things. 27

One is time. Educating a people, but its nature, is a continuingprocess. We cannot compress in a short period of time, all positive

forces for the appropriate sociocultural evolution. The other is theweakness of our sense of racial consciousness. For many of our peo­ple, the past is a mist whose powerful influences they can't recog­nize, much less understand.

All these. however, does not mean that we, people like you,should stop trying.

Dear Oscar,

Before leaving the Presidency of the University of the Philip­pines, I would like to record officially my personal gratitude to youfor your valuable advice and counsel. You have helped and guidedme in looking at University affairs and problems in perspective.

Your professional proclivity to keep copious notes will proveto be a veritable gold mine in the writing of the definitive history of

U.P. including the Angara years.Again, thank you for your invaluable contributions to my ad­

ministration which of course you would know personally and there­

fore need not be enumerated.

Sincerely,

Congratulations to the UP Mathematics Club for holding its14th Annual Search for the Math Wizard of the Year.

The premium our culture places on education and our decades­old educational system have blessed us with a proud tradition ofliteracy, if not brilliant in many fields, our country has no troublewith the supply: But the same socio-cultural norms that developedthe unfortunate perception of a school diploma as ticket to wealthand personal success, may also develop an attitude that values bril­liance for brilliance's sake. This kind of arrogance we must guard

against.

I congratulate the University Student Council for cornrne­morating the first anniversary of the February Revolution by way

of a University Fair entitled, "na coUP hal "

The tongue-in-cheek title, while consistent with a cultural traitof making light of national problems, reflects a deep awareness thatthe Revolution merely started a process of change as well as re­action, of renewal as of regression. Years from now, the success ofthe Revolution will be gauged from hard facts-the socioeconomiccondition of revolution's children, the maturity of their politicalideas and social purposes, and the strength of their sense of nation­hood.

I am sure you realize that as the cream of our nation's youth,the democratic promise of the February Revolution for our peoplewill be accounted through your work and deeds. If the next gene­ration were to look with kind memory upon our Revolution, yourgeneration has to do better than that of your fathers'.

I am pleased to welcome our alumni asthey return once moreto the University for the 1987 General Alumni Homecoming.

This year's homecoming theme deals with the unity of UPalumni in peace and freedom. Amidst the levity and joy of home­coming, perhaps we can reflect not so much on what we have con­tributed for the cause of peace and freedom in our country, but onthe many thigns that we still need to do. The quest for peace andfreedom, ideal states of existence, is a never ending process in animperfect world. No ssoner do we reach another stage closer to theideal, we should push on for yet another stage,all the while watch­ing out for any backward slides to where we started.

I warmly congratulate the graduating members of UP KATIG,the official organization of MAF/BFAR fisheries scholars.

The myth that our country's long-term survival, even prosperi­ty is assured by an abundance of natural resources should already belaid to rest. Our fishery scientists, for instance, note with growingconcern the exhaustion of our marine and coastal fishery resources.Our hapless fishermen are discovering that for the same effort theyexerted a few years back, todav's catch is significantly less.Our en­vironmentalists have also been warning us that we are already steal­ing from our future to feed, clothe and house our present large andstill growing population.

What can you, as new graduates, do? Perhaps you have someanswers. The important thing is not so much that you have readyanswers at the moment, but that you should realize your 'trainingand knowledge must immediately be put to use for assuring ourcountry's survival, perhaps even prosperity. The assurance no longercomes from our much depleted and much abused natural resources,but from how educated and trained people like you make use oftheir knowledge and skills.

I am pleased to send my greetings to the UPAA of SouthernCalifornia on the occasion of their annual Grand Reunion and Ball.

A miracle of sorts attended the construction of our belovedchapel in the late fifties. It was the height of the rainy season andthe chapel's thin-shell concrete dome was being put up. Everyoneknew that even a little drizzle would be ruinous. But how the com­munity prayed. They were blessed with a rainless day. all that wasneeded. Would that another miracle could help us to stop the phy­sical deterioration of our chapel now. But as men, we must do ourpart.

I am heartened therefore that you have earmarked the pro­ceeds from your affair for the reconstruction and renovation of ourUP Chapel.

I am pleased to congratulate the members of the UP Master ofBusiness Administration (MBA) Class of 1987.

Most if not all of you will be joining the top ranks of Philippinebusiness, where even now the dreams, passions and frustrations ofits leaders and managers revolve around the national obsession foreconomic recovery. Of course, you will bring with you-into those

executive meetings, policy discussions, operations, even perhapscorporate boardrooms-the practical and theoretical skills you havehoned in the University. I would ask you to bring one more thing,i.e. a sensitivity for the human aspect of business and economic phe­nomena. For if we wish our economic recovery to be accompaniedby social progress, we must have business leaders who can see be­yond their decisions and policies, the faces of the people who wouldbe affected.

I send my warmest greetings to the UP Katilingban on the Oc­casion of its annual celebration of the 1I0nggoWeek.

The historian Horacio de la Costa once observed that Filipinoculture represents the interplay of indigenous elements as well as

foreign influences assimilated into the national heritage. This inter­play varied from region to region and from class to class, creating"significant differences within a recognizably common culture."

So much of the beauty and distinctive richness of Filipino cul­ture derives from these regional and class variations. But betweenpreserving the appeal of its diversity and appreciating its underlying

homogeneities, many causes for our people's division and mutualmisunderstanding have intruded. If our culture, complex as it is,were not to bar us forever from building a long overdue sense ofnationhood, we must understand and exalt our common culture aswe pride and cherish our regional culture.

I send heartfelt greetings to the resident sisters and alumnae ofthe UP Delta Lambda Sigma Sorority on the occasion of the"AlayKay Sis" Affair.

For forty-one years now the call to A/tiora Peto hasmotivatedcountless Deltans to constantly search for new heights in their pro­fessional careers, community involvement, in public service, in theirfamily lives. To me, when one Deltan is honored for distinguishedaccomplishments, all are honored. Theone who momentarily shinesabove the others, for her excellent example; and the rest, for theirpotential triumphs as they keep faith with the charge in A/tioraPew.

I wish the ID 179 class of the UP College of Home Economics

success in their exhibit, entitled I.D.E.A.S.I understand the members of your class ar-e about to graduate

and this project is one of your last in the University. The imagi­nativenessand enterprise you now show, together with the skills andknowledge the University has given you, will be your capital in pur­suing successful careers.

As you go on with your individual pursuits, however, I hope

you will also give time for the social responsibility that demandslarger obligations from all UP graduates. There are many ways toserve your country and people. Seek them out and continue thetradition of those who havegone before you.

I wish to congratulate the 1987 graduates of the UP Instituteof Biology.

In studying the natural sciences you must have come to ob­serve that life is growth and decay in equal parts. This is true in theworld of men as of plants and animals. Survival among the latter iscontinuous resistance to the constant onslaught of various formsof decay, whether internal or environmental in origin. There youmay have a valuable lesson.

Take for instance your education. Someone once said that itis not "a product: mark, diploma, job, money •..; it is a process,a never ending one." The moment you get fixated on these so­

called "products" of education without valuing the process, is, tome, the moment where the decay of your person and soul starts.

I am pleased to congratulate Class 1987 of the UP Departmentof Psychology.

You tell me that you want MANDALA, your class yearbook,to serve as a memento of your University veers.of those people whohave made that period meaningful and fruitful. Go beyond that.Make this yearbook more than an album of your University past.

Treat it as people would a string tied around a finger - an urgentreminder of something to be done. And what should MANDALAremind Y9u to do? To fulfill the promises you made in the Univer­sity to serveyour country and people.

I am pleasedto congratulate the Class of 1987 of the UP Integ­rated School.

One can almost see a parallel in your lives as students and inthe life of our nation. Four years of high school have seen manychallenges thrown your way. You have been hurdling the rigors ofacademic work, the stress and uncertainties normally associatedwith adolescence,and undoubtedly other challenges unique to each

individual. You now leave high school in pursuit of your potentialswherever they may bring you.

Our nation too has gone through much in the last four years.We have plumbed the depths of political and economic crises.Pushed beyond the brink and into revolution last year. we were for.tunate to get out without much blood and with greater opportuni­ties for creating a better future for ourselves. The convergence ofthe nation's pursuit of those opportunities with vour pursuit of in­dividual potentials is the stuff that your countrymen's dreams aremade of .

I assure the UP Economics Society of my best wishes for thesuccess of its premier showing of "Lucas."

What drives you to undertake projects like this? Whencecomes the commitment to bother with the tediousness of sellingtickets and doing promotional campaign despite the rigors of youracademic work. Time and again, you really must ask yourselvesthese questions. The answers, I believe, would recall for you theideals of your organization. Then, you would appreciate more thesuccess of your project as a measure of your commitment to ECO­SOC's ideals.

I wish to congratulate the UP Engineering Fraulein on the ceca­sian of its 30th Anniversary.

I see in your anniversary's theme, "In the Continuing Tradition,"a reaffirmation to the ideals that have made the UP EngineeringFraulein an enduring organization. One of these ideals, as manifestin your activities, is total growth and development for the engineer·ing coed.

Like you, I believe.that education is a process that should resultnot only in a skilled professional but also b polished person, sure iner beliefs and firm in her principles. Much as we desire, all the as­

pects of this process eennct be covered in the classroom. It is there­fore reassuring when organizations such as yours do their best togive fullness to University educetlon.

{Sgd.1 EOGAROO J. ANGARAPresident

The magnitude of knowledge generation and utilization neces­sary to address developmental problems makes the computer avaluable developmental tool. The sooner that we can make compu­ter literacy a universal feature of our educational process the betterit would be for our country's developmental efforts. But we cannotexpect the wagon to come ahead of the horse. That is why increas­ing public awareness of the computer's potential as a developmentaltool is a necessary first task.

I am pleased that the UP Cursor, with its "Coup de Byte," is

contributing to this task.

(Sgd.l EOGAROO J. ANGARAPresident

I send my warmest greetings to our UP alumni in Houston.With the turn of the new year we find ourselves only thirteen

years away from the year 2000. We might very well wonder whereand how the human race would be in the next millenium. But aschildren of the University, perhaps we ought to reflect on our AlmaMater as it approaches the next century. Would it be able to meetthe undoubtedly more complex educational needs of our transform­ing society? Is it now searching in step with new challenges to itsroles as a change agent as well as a stabilizing factor in society? Iaddress these questions to you as the University's partners in a life­time contract of mutual support, growth and development.

{Sgd.l EOGAROO J. ANGARAPresident

I send warmest greetings to the UP Junior Finance Associationand its guests during the live concert of zsa-zse Padilla.

I have lost count of the frequent fundraising projects of the JFA.But what has never failed to impress me is that with each project,the list of worthy causes that the organization has helped growslonger. This concert, for instance, will benefit the Youth With AMission and the Office for Student Relations of the College ofBusiness Administration.

It is this tradition of civic spirit, a feature of many campusorganizations like JPFA, that I invariably think of whenewer thesubject of values education is brought up. The- University can beproud, that even outside classrooms, its students take the initiativeof learning values on their own.

We get the impression that you want a consideration of yourproposal for an amicable settlement with the University under cir­cumstances similar to the Krus~-Ligascase.

You must take note that there _was no amicable settlement ofthe Krus-na-Ligas case. The decision to donate an area to the Krus­na-Ligas residents was arrived at long before the case was filedagainst the University. The donation was not made in considerationof the the court case, -whlch was dismissed· by the Quezon CityRegional Trial Court upon motion of the University to donate wasa pure ect of liberality and not due to an adverse claim against the

I reply to your letter of May 9, 1987 burdened with a feelingthat I might be disappointing a friend.

You see, Bill, there is a, University policy laid down by theBoard of Regents whcih requires that only applicants who havetaken the U.P. College Admission Test (UPCAT) may be admittedto the freshman class. Students vvho were based abroacl at the timethe UPCAT was administered may take a recognized admission testsuch as the S.A.T. or equivalent, in lieu of the UPCAT.

Since your nephew, Jose Real C. Ponciano, has not taken any ofthe above tests, the rules of .the University simply do not give onethe flexibility of considering him for admission.

There are two options that are open to him. First, he may takethe UPCAT on July 11, 1987, which is intended for second semesterapplicants. The deadline for submission of applicants for this test

is July 3. 1987.

The second option is for him to enroll in another University.After completing at least 33 academic units with an average of 2.00or B or better, he may apply for transfer to the University of thePhilippines.

I am sendi~g your nephew a copy of this letter so that he willknow the options that are available to him.

Please understand that my ability to help is constrained by ruleswhich have their own good reasons for being.

I am confident that you share our perception that Francisco

Arcellana is one of the living titans in Philippine fiction, particularly

in sbort-storv writing. From the boy who first attracted notice withthe short story, "The Man Who Would Be Poe" to the young manwho helped make the Veronicans a revitalizing force in Philippine

Literature to the respected Professor Emeritus who has touched thelives of generations of aspiring Filipino writers, Francisco Arcetlanahas contributed to Philippine Literature in many small and bigways. An examination of his career as a writer, teacher, essayist,critic and poet would surely show that he richly deserves the long

overdue honor of being a National Artist.

I hope for your serious consideration of this matter.

Honorable Guillermo N. CaragueDepartment of Budget and ManagementMalaca!ianag, Manila

Dear Secretary Carague:

For the past years the payment of utilities has been a problemof U.P. Diliman. This was essentially brought about by the follow­ing factors: (1) the increased rates of utilities for the past yearshave made the U.P. Diliman's 'resources inadequate to supportvarious activities, and (2) an allocation that MOE has always beenshort of minimum need. Table I shows the comparison betweenMOE subsidy, utilities budget and utilities expenses during the years.1983. 1984. 1965 and 1986. It will be noted that the budget forutilities has been ususally 80% of subsidy. In fact even if 100%of MOE subsidy shall be budgeted for electricity alone, the amountwill ~till fall short of yearly expenses {as can be gleaned from at­tached graphil. On the average, yearly expenses are higher than the

budgeted amount by 65%.

In order to reduce electrical consumption, the University hasbeen implementing several measures. For instance, the majority.of residential users at the north side of the campus were alreadytransferred directly to MERALCO. However, the residents of PookDagohoy and Ricarte also with north side are expected to be trans­ferred to Amorsolo Extension only within this year and will bedirectly connected with MERALCO. The University is now in theprocess of transferring the south side. As a result of the transferon the north side, consumption in 1984 as compared to 1983 waslower by 7.7%. Despite this reduction however, it is noted that thebilling for 1984 increased by 59, 3870 (as shown in the attachedtable II) due to increase in ratescln 1985, consumption furtherdecreased by 12.55% of consumption in 1984 but still the billsincreased by 24.11%. The increase in billing. in spite of the reducedconsumption only shows that the increase in energy cost has beenvery big. MWSS rates likewise increased by almost 3% monthlyfrom May 1985 to Apri11986. PLOT had its share of rate increasestoo. An example is Tel. 98-58-18 which had in 1984 a total billthat was 35.05% higher than that of 1983 and an Increase of 11.39%

in 1986 over 1985.

The increase in government subsidy in 1984 and 1985 (asshown in Table 1111 was inadequate to offset the increase in billingdue to lack of corresponding subsidy to cushion the impact ofescalated cost of commodities and increased inflation rate. In 1986,the MOE subsidy was reduced by 12.75% over that of 1985. Al­though the slight decrease in consumption in 1986 was matchedby a decrease in billing, the marked decrease in subsidy in 1986

still makes it- pitifully insufficient to meet 1986 expenditures. We'tried to cope with situation by scouring the bottom and by reducingexpenses to minimum without sacrificing effectiveness and efficiency.But still we were left with unhooked obligations o~12.795,143.66

for utilities.

In view of the foregoing, may we request for a release off'12,795,143.66 from the General Fund Adjustment to tide us over.

We hope that this request merits your kind consideration.

Thank you for this and past favors.

Lately, the University received a remittance from the MariaLanzar Carpio Professorial Chair in the amount of f'24,OOO.00.The interest earnings of the previous remittance totals f'2,OOO.00.As of this writing, therefore, the total fund available for the aboveprofessorial chair is1'26,000.00.

While it is true that, as per the agreement entered into by andbetween the University and the: Eastern Chemical Industries, lnc.,the tenure of appointment is three years, Dr. Solidum could not be

issued an appointment longer than one year, considering that theamount available is not even sufficient to support a two-year a­pointment at P18,OOO.OO per annum honorarium. Moreover, existingpolicy prescribed by the Board of Regents stipulates that appoint­ments to professorial chairs (original, renewal, or reappointment)must start either on January 1 or July 1, and, therefore, must endon June 30 or December 31.

Experience shows that it is not advisable to issue any professorialchair appointment supported by an external fund for a periodlonger than that which could be supported by the fund actuallyavailable, without risk of embarrassment in case no remittance isreceived.

Dear Miss Garcia:

This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated May 26, 1987informing me that you are donating Pl 0,000.00 annually to the Col­lege of Education to support and maintain a male undergraduate

scholar in Education.Your suggestion that remittances for the support of the schol~r­

ship be credited as payment by Dean JUlieta M. Savetlano of hercontractual obligation as one of the 'sureties of Mr. Noel Traya isacceptable. In order that such remittances can be properly ackncwl­edged as payment by Dean Savellano, checks should be made to theorder of the University of the Philippines and transmitted to theChancellor, U.P. Diliman. All remittances should be accompaniedby a transmittal letter, which should include the serial number ofthe check, amount, and date of issue, and specify that the amountbeing remiited is in support of the "Vicente Garcia of Class 1916

Scholarship".For this purpose, may I suggest that the first check for P1,000.­

00 that you already remitted to the College of Education Scholar­ship Committee be replaced by a new check drawn to the order ofthe University of the Philippines and sent to the Chancellor, U.P.Dillman. This arrangement is necessary for the issuance of an offi­ciaI r;ceipt and application of the amount as partial payment of thecontractual obligations of Dean Savellano.

The College of Education will formualte the rules to govern thescholarship and you will be given a copy of said rules after approval

by ~his Office.

The involvement of the College of Public Health in primaryhealth care instruction. research and extension underscores the con­cern and commitment of the College in particular and the Universityin general to national needs and prioritieS.

It is my pleasure to congratulate the members of the graduatingclass of 1987 of the UP Visayas School of Development Manage­

ment IUPV·SDMI.As you leave the portals of the University, do SO with pride not

only because you have managed to live up to the high academicstandards of the University but also because of the unique positionthe UPV-SOM holds in the entire educational system. The UPV­SOM was created on December 22, 1981 and stands on record asthe only school in the country whose curriculum combines pro­grams in both business and public administration on the graduateand undergraduate levels.

The uniqueness of the UPV-..sOM's curricular programs, it mustbe said, is to effectiviely contribute to rural and regional develop­ment within the context of the problems and potentitals peculiarto the Visayas region.

May I therefore reiterate, through this laudable year-book ­ASSETS 'S7 - that you must put all that you have learned from

. the University into good use, in service of the Filipino people. Onlythen could you rightfully say you really are assets. not only toyourselves and your families, but also to the University and the

nation.

Art plays an indispensable part in OUf lives. It reflects the kinctof society we live in, how our culture has progressed - or retro­gressed. and how we have historically developed as a people.

The preservation and the development of art forms - includingmusic and dance - deserve support from both government and pri­vate sectors. At this point in OUf history, we now witness how thearts act as a powerful medium in uniting a diverse people such asthe Filipinos and at the same time communicating to the wholeworld this messageof unity in diversity.

The University of the Philippines is particularly proud that ithas, to some extent, played a significant role in the development

of Philippine music and dance through its various training programsand regular academic offerings. The University, being a national re­source in itself, continues with its tasks, mindful that the evolve­ment of a truly Filipino art is a continuing process.

"The Anatomy of Music and Arts: A Tribute to Freedom"represents a very commendable undertaking not only because of~at it is but what it attempts to do at this time when the socio­cultural and political maturity of the Filipino people is being putto the test.

accompany the forthcoming November 1987 elections. This leavesthem with very little time to attend to the details. Atty.

Kindly assess these factors against circumstances which con­vinced U.P. to donate the KNL property and see if the non-consum­

Dear Raul.

It was a pleasant surprise to receive your letter remitting acheck amounting to "'22.,153.50 representing UPLB College ofForestry's additional contribution to the Diamond Jubilee FundCampaign.

I realize that this amount results from the hard work and re­scurcefutness of our colleagues and alumni in raising funds for theUniversity. No doubt the fund-raising effort owed much to your

leadership and to the initiative of former Dean Celso B. Lantican

and the present Dean Adolfo V. Revilla. This contribution is signifi·cant not only in monetary terms but in mobilizing our tecurtv andalumni in the common cause to improve U.P.

If I have any say in the appropriation of Diamond Jubilee

lized for safeguarding our forests. I hope to have the occasion to

hear from you how the UP can be more actively involved in refores­

Dear Mr. Magno:

This is with reference to the story in yesterday's issue of TheManila Journal written by Rhea Sandique regarding the Statementof the UP Community on Lean Alejandro's Death which we sharedwith media yesterday.

Weare concerned about the gross inaccurate reporting made onthe contents of the Statement, as well as on the attribution of ideasto particular members of the U.P. academic community. We wish tocorrect such inaccuracy in order to present the sentiments andbeliefs of the community as reflected in the Statement.

We begin with the principle of academic freedom whichenables faculty members to express divergent views on various issuesin accordance with their respective disciplinal expertise. The State­ment is informed by this principle and as such reflects the thinkingand analysis of various members of the U.P. academic community.It should not be taken as the view of one man.

The Statement was careful to make a distinction between the

militarists in the military and the military organization itself: It saidthat "the civilian government has difficulty reining in militarist ele­ments (not the military organization). It did not say that this is thereason behind recent destabilizing events, which Ms. Sandlque called"the recent spate of military upheaval against the government" (herwords, not ours).

The Statement did not "categorically blame(dl the militaryfor Alejandro's ambuscade," as written by Ms. Sandique. Thevarious statements attributed to ~e were actually made by variousfaculty members. They were incorporated into the Statement of theU.P. Academic Community in the spirit of academic freedom.

We invite you to look at the attached copy of the Statement.We hope you can publish it in full in order to allow the public todraw its own conclusions rather than misrepresenting its contentsand quoting ideas out of context.

Thank you for your attention.

The Class of 1987 deserves our wholehearted congratulationsfor passing through some of the most assuredly rigorous profession­al programs in the University. The engineering programs are tough'~bstacle courses for minds training for precision and discipline, the

tapacity to marshal facts for analysis and conceptualization, and theability to learn from leapfrogging advances of science and techno­logy. As your elder in the profession, however, allow me to give youone more important lesson. You have learned as engineers how tolearn. That is vital in a profession as dynamic as ours.

as faculty members and researchers are or should become leaders in

their own fields.

Whatever we may be doing, the vision enjoins all of us to heJp

break the status quo which is a vicious circle of stagnation and dete­

rioration for most Filipinos, and to replace it with a benign spiralof participation, progress, and social justice for all our citizens. In

other words, all of us in U.P. m":Jst help not only our students but

also as many others of our countrymen as possible to transform our

nation and society in a peaceful and non-violent social revolution,

which has yet to begin. This is the other side of the political revo­

lution that began in February 1986 and is far from complete.

To say all this may sound too visionary, if not quixotic, to

some of you, but I can assure you that the vision I hold up to you

today is no mere flight of the imagination nor empty rhetoric. It is

imperative and it is realizable. Moreover, it is entirely consistent

with the aims and ideals of the new Constitution that we ratifiedbarely three months ago.

Let me tell you why the vision 'IS imperative. Each one of us

here can draw up a list of ten or more crucial problems that beset

our country. I shall now give you my own Ilst of problems that

singly and altogether amount to nothing less than a series of na­tional crises. (I mean crises in the plural form! ) J offer the list to'

you because, in my humble view, they present the Filipino nation

and the University of the Philippines with the tremendous challenqand responslbrltv that have evoked the vision I speak of today.

Problems and Crises

Time does not allow a vivid portrayal of the problems and the

crises, so I leave it to your knowledge and insight, and your imagi­

LEARNING AND LEADERSHIP FOR SOCIALTRANSFORMATION:

A VISION FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES'

By JOSE V. ABUEVA

The Vision

Learning for social transformation. Leadership for social trans­

formation. This is the vision of the University of the Philippines as acommunity of scholars that I shall humbly propose if, by the initia­

tive of the U.P. Academic Community, by the choice of the ap­

pointing authorities. and by the grace of Almighty God, J am given

the greatest challenge and responsibility of my career-the presiden­cy of U.P.

As I speak of this vision for the years just ahead of us, actually

commencing on the first of June 1987, it is good to be remindedthat:

The future is not a place we are goingto but a place weare making.

Not a path to be found but made.And the activity changes both the maker

and the destination.

What I propose then is that, together, we transform the Univer­sity of the Philippines as a place, a path, and a destination. Necessa­rily, we must transform ourselves as a community of scholars-asfaculty, as researchers, as students, as administrators. as alumni, andas citizens of the Republic. More than ever, U.P. must lead thenation as an institution of higher leaminq. We must deliberately helpour students to prepare themselves for positions of Ieadershtp, even

1. A weak sense of national identity, unity, and purpose:

2. Widespread poverty and injustice, insecurity and power­

lessness, cynicism and alienation (hunger, malnutrition,

diseases, and poor living conditions that are linked topoverty and injustice .. .}:

3. Lawlessness.violence, and rebell ion;

4. A rapidly rising population, now 55 million, low pro­

ductivity and external competitiveness. unemployment

and underemployment, and growing landlessness;

5. Catastrophic consequences of the waste and depletion

of natural resources and destruction of the environment

6. Inequities and tensions in the relations among socia

classes and between the majority and the minority

ethno-cultural communities, as well as inter-regional andrural-urban disparities;

7. Increasing problems confronting the family, households,children, the youth, women, and the aged;

B. Unresponsiveness and inadequacies of governmental and

social institutions and services, and rampant graft and

corruption in many places. public and private;9. Shortcomings of education, learning, and ccrrtrnunlca­

tton. and the underdevelopment of science and techno­logy; and

10. Internal and external dependency and domination, theobstruction of self-determination and impairment ofsovereignty in the political. economic, and culturalspheres.

Unfortunately, these problems are far from isolated. They in­teract with each other directly or indirectly. horizontally and ver­tically, from the past to the present and the future. And unless ourpolitical, economic, and social systems and institutions are re­structured and transformed, they will continue to reproduce and ag­gravate both the problems and the existing relations in our society.

The 1987 Constitution mandates that certain basic changes bemade. It speaks of building a just and humane society and of estab­lishing a government that will help bring about "the blessings of

2.3.

grams:1.

independence and democracy under the rule of law and a regime oftruth, justice, freedom, love, equality, and peace." This Constitu­tion spells out the national goals and ideals as well as the nationalagenda that can guide the University of the Philippines as it pursuesits own institutional goals and ideals, and carries out its various

programs. The University must take the new Constitution seriouslyfor it is the most authoritative statement of the national purposeand direction now and in the coming years.

Leadership in U.P.

Let me be clear about my understanding of leadership andlearning. In a community of scholars {teachers, researchers, and stu­dents), leadership must be exercised in a manner that emphasizescollegiality among peers or equals, learning from each other,respecting each other's viewpoints and knowledge, working as ateam, and extending such learning and cooperation in human net­works of knowledge and understanding within and beyond ourautonomous and regional campuses. Let me stress that leadershipand learning certainly include the students of U.P. whom I regard

as young citizens and scholars in their own right and potentialleaders of our society. I shall elaborate on my understanding oflearning a little later.

At the moment, I do not pretend to know enough of the par­iculatittes concerning the faculty, the researchers, the students, the

administration, and the alumni, or those conditions, structures, andpractices that need improvement or overhaul. In a general way, ofcourse I do, because I have tried to remain in touch with many ofyou. Despite the visible progress in various spheres, objectivity andrealism impel me to recognize that a number of you speak of adecline in the academic quality of U.P., a degree of demoralization,a tack of commitment to one's work on the part of some faculty,and deterioration of physical facilities.

To those of you who do not know me personally, let me saythat I have an open mind and an open heart. I shall be a full-timePresident and an accessible one. In regard to the needs and problemsof U.P. and your own, I know how to listen and observe, and toconsult whoever may be concerned. I am patient and respectful andappreciative. I can learn fairly fast. And I trust you would be willingto discuss problems and ideas and give advice based on your consi­dered judgment and personal and professional experience. There aremany among you whom I know, admire, and respect. There aremany more whom I would like to know and consult as colleagues

and peers.

Five Themes as Unifying Concerns

However, as one who seeks the U.P. presidency, I feel it is myobligation to share with you not only a vision for the University butalso what we as colleagues, peers and partners in a common en­deavor can do to fulfill that vision.

With respect to the problems I have enumerated, I have a suq­

gestion. For our common orientation, we could formulate a smallnumber of themes that define the major areas of concern of U.P.over the next five years or more. Under the overarching or meta­theme of "Learning and Leadership for Social Transformation" wemight consider five themes that could serve to unify the work onour various campuses and in our numerous academic units and pro-

Peace, security, nation-building, democratization, and em­

powerment of the people;Food, health, housing. education and leisure;The national economy, governance, and social justice;Life-support systems; population, resources, the environ­ment, and science and technology: and

5. Values, culture, creativity, learning and communication.These are only suggestive themes as a basis for dicussion and

reflection.As a nation. we have iust emerged from the darkest years of

authoritarian rule, oppression and repression since we regained our

independence. Through those years, and earlier on, the nation haslearned much which is now embedded in our memory and enshrinedin the new Constitution. We have learned that the University com­munity must be ever vigilant and must struggle whenever necessaryto preserve and enhance the institutional autonomy and academicfreedom of the University of the Philippines.

U.P. should be a hospitable home for different beliefs, ideas,schools of thought, ideologies, cultural traditions, and religions. Itshould be a stronghold of nationalism, defined not monolithicallyby any single group but pluralistically by whosoever wishes toaddress its goals and concerns. This freedom of thought, expressionand inquiry are paramount in my vision of the University.

Symbol ism and remembrance are important if our past is toteach our future; I would suggest that we erect on the Oiliman cam­pus a fitting monument on which shall be inscribed the names of allFilipinos who suffered, died, or survived as political prisoners, orprisoners of conscience, in their peaceful and non-violent struggleagainst tyranny and authoritarian rule. U.P. should honor their

struggle and their memory in scholarly studies and publications thatwill be useful in forging civic responsibility and a stronger sense ofnational identity, unity and purpose.

U.P.: The University of and for the People

We should intensify our efforts to make the University of thePhilippines the best university in the land, and offering the best gra­duate programs, not because other universities may be sub-standardif not mediocre, but because our faculty and students are highlymotivated; because they are driven by the spirit of creativity andacademic and professional excellence; because they are capable ofleadership-critically minded, socially conscious, politically in­volved, and concerned with the welfare of all humanity.

The challenge and responsibility of U.P. as the premier stateuniversity loom larger each year as we realize that the totality of our

faculty, students, and alumni is diminishing in proportion to thegrowing mass of teachers, students, and graduates in all the privateand state colleges and universities combined. Statistics for 1985show that the total U.P. enrolment of 28,136 was a mere 1.62 percent of total enrolment at the tertiary level; and the U.P. facultynumbering 2,764 was only 4.8 per cent of the total faculty in thecountry at the same level. This is precisely why I believe that U.P.faculty, students, and alumni must be leaders in their respectivecallings, and given every opportunity to learn and enhance theirknowledge and skills for leadership within and beyond their profes­sional or disciplinary training. But, again, such learning and leader­ship should be geared not only to personal success but, above all,to serving the country and contributing to its social transformation.

To these ends, and as part of the vision I am offering to you, Ishould also like to propose the following ideas to strengthen U.P.'soutreach, influence, and effectiveness:

1. U.P. should be a critical national forum for the informeddiscussion and debate of the country's problems, and thevarious ideas and alternatives for alleviating or resolvingthem. The Center for Integrative and DevelopmentStudies could be involved in this endeavor.

2. U.P. should be a catalyst to stimulate other universitiesand research centers by suggesting to them issues andproblems of national, regional, or global significance,alternative perspectives, new concepts, additional varia­bles to be considered, new paradigms to guide thoughtand action, and improved methodologies;

3. U.P. should set up an appropriate early-warning systemfor emerging issues and problems that are not yet on thehorizons of policy-makers and opinion-shapers, or arebeing ignored and neglected by them.

4. U.P. should be an articulate part of the nation's socialconscience. In such a role, more U.P. facuttv should actas thoroughly informed and sober social critics on a num­ber of problems as, for example, those related to the five

themes I have suggested. Necessarily, U.P. scholars mustundertake valid and reliable assessments as basis for theircriticism and recommendations. They must examine theimpact of policies on the people in general, and on theweak and vulnerable in particular: children, the youthand the aged; the sick, disabled, and handicapped; ethnicminorities, etc. Every five or ten years, U.P. could publish

an authoritative study on the state of the Filipino nation.starting in 1990.

5. U.P. should consciously and systematically provide oppor­tunities for its students and those of other universities toenhance their capabilities as young and emerging leaders.in dialogue with the faculty and leaders in government,business, labor, the churches, and other spheres of life,and even in contact with visiting foreign scholars andleaders. If I become President, I shall initiate the U.P.President's Seminar on Leadership and Non-violentSocial Transformation. I shall also initiate an lnterdis­cipl inary program of study and research on social trans­formation that could become institutionalized.

6. Through the studies and consultancies ofits faculty. U.P.should organize more systematically its advisory servicesto various organs and agencies of government, includingthe committees of Congress, as well as non-governmentalorganizations and institutions.

7. Above all, U.P. should be the university of the people andfor the people. Its facultv and researchers should provideinformation and assistance to, and stimulate the aware­ness and enhance the leadership capacities of, cause­Oriented .orqanizatlons and other grassroots movementsseeking social change. U.P. faculty and students can helpexplain and demystify the workings of science and tech­nology and of government, corporations, universities andother social institutions, as part of the process of em­

powering the people. U,P. should devise learning strategiesfor the masses who form the vast majority in our society.V_Po faculty and students can monitor the performanceof institutions and the conduct of their leaders and work­ers in order to help ensure that they fulfill their avowed

social purposes and serve well their constituencies.8. U.P. should help foster among all Filipinos a strong sense

of their nationhood, pride in their cultures and civiliza­tion, and concern for contributing to the advancement ofglobal peace, development, and well-being. The facultycould explore the pcssibilitv of producing an encvc!o­pedia on varied aspects of Filipino civilization. I have

especially in mind a project to collect and edit the expres­sion of Filipino social and political thought, and anotherseries on the cultural and artistic creativity of the Filipino.

Learning for Social Transformation

And now a word about learning. U.P. should develop and pro­mote the kinds of learning that are required by our people in acomplex and rapidly changing world, today and tomorrow. especial­ly those forms of learning that will enable our citizens to restructuretheir relations and institutions.

Here let me adapt to U.P. what we are developing at the UnitedNations University where we are introducing the concept of "globallearning." Among other things, learning in U.P. should mean notontv specialization in a particular field or profession, but the in­tegration of knowledge and perspectives: horizontally, bV linkingknowledge and understanding not only across issues, disciplines, orprofessions, but also across sectors, cultures, and ideologies: verti­cally. by relating issues and problems at the village or local level totheir manifestations at the provincial, national, regional, and globalevets. Like it or not, we are enmeshed in the world far beyond ourshores. As a national community of scholars, we at the same timebelong to an international community with all the privileges andobligations it entails.

Learning at U.P. should also have three elements: (1) "parti­cipatory learning" which creates solfdaritv in space among theresearchers and other people who contribute in various ways to thestudy in a "participatory research" and learning experience; (2)"anticipatory learning" which creates solidarity in time or betweengenerations; and (3) "social learning" or the mutual learning ofindividuals, groups, institutions, and the whole Filipino nation,both as a process and a resource. U.P. faculty and students shouldhelp our citizens to learn how to be free and remain free; how to beself-reliant; how to be critical and influence leaders to be responsive;how to manage complexity; how to gain power vis-a-vis the qovem­

ment or business or the community; how to be more productive;

how to be healthy: what is meant by social transformation. U.P.should look at creativity and learning needs, different learningmodes, the varying contexts of creativity and learning, and the ef­fective dissemination and utilization of knowledge by our people.

To be able to do this, U.P. should devise new networks forlearning, including distance learning, that will involve the otherstate colleges and universities and private institutions in the U.P.'svision and mission. We should explore ways to -prepare learningmodules and materials for wider use in audio and video machines,on radio and television. Given the relatively small size of its facultyand student body, U.P. should devise innovative ways of expandingits outreach and impact, using the most modern technologies ofinformation and communication.

I am deeply mindful of the need to adjust the system of In­centives and rewards at U.P., especially 'In relation to the vision Ihave presented to you. This applies not only to the tacultv, re­searchers, and students, but also to the administrative and auxi­liary personnel who make it possible for the scholars to be creative,productive, and effective in their work.

I am equally and fullV aware that it is the primary responsibi­lity of the V.P. President to raise funds and mobilize support forthe intitution and those who work for its proqrams. Lacking thetime to elaborate on these two important topics, I hope that theopen forum following Our presentation will give me the opportunityto address them.

Let me return to that little verse I recited at the outset, andmodify it a little bit.

The future of V.P. is not a place we aregoing to but a place we shall bemBking together.

Not a path to be merely discovered butone to be made consciously andpurposively.

And the activities we shall together dowill change all of us as makersand our destination-the U.P.dedicated to learning andleadership for social transformationand the lasting betterment ofall Filipinos.

CONTENTSDECISIONS OF THE BOARD OF REGENTS

l006th Meeting, 12 No..mber 1987

The Cover

The country's return to democracy has brought many changes inthe country's political, economic and educational landscapes. De­mocratic institutions like Congress have been put in place. Econo­mic monopolies have been tern down. In many fields and places.processes have become democratized.

Rightly, the Unjversi~y of the Philippines has not been sparedfrom the demands of this new-found freedom. Thus, for the firsttime in Its history. its next president was chosen through consulta­tions with all sectors ctsthe University community.

And then, the clamor for regents representing the faculty andstudents was heeded. On Oct. 28, 1977. Dr. Francisco NemenzoJr. became UP's first faculty regent since 1933, when the positionwas abolished. Each' autonomous 'campus of the U.P. System wasrepresented by a candidate, but Dr. Nemenzo garnered the highestnumber of Votes in a System-wide election.

Earlier. in January 1987, President Aquino appointed the firststudent regent with voting power. Francis Pangilinan. The last timea student regent sat at the board was in 1972, before martial lawwas declared. He had no voting power, however.

Regent Nemenzo, 52. is a professor of political science at UPDiliman. He first served the University as student assistant in 1955.and 'rose to become a full-fledged professor in 1975. He was deanof the UP College of Arts and Sciences in 1976-81. At present healso serves as editor of the Di/iman Review, chairman of the Buk·luran 18 Ikauunlad ng SolYBlistBng Ilip at Gawa (8ISIG), and amember of the advisOry board of the Regional Strategic StudiesCenter of the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies in Singapore.

Regent Nemenzo is' a B.A. in Public' Administration ('57) andMaster of Public Administration ('59) graduate of the U.P. He gothis Ph.D. from the University of Manchester in England, in 1965.

Twenty.three-year-old Regent Pangilinan, on the other hand,was elected University Student Council (UP Oiliman) chairman InAugust 1986. A law student, he served as vice-chairman of theNational Alliance of U.P. Student Councils in 1985-86.

This is in reply to the (1) 8 October 1987 letter jointly sub­mitted by some members of the faculty and staff of the Collegeof Fisheries and the Institute of Fisheries Development and Re­search, reiterating their opposition to the College's transfer to theMiag-ao campus and suggesting the creation of a mutti-disclpllnarvresearch and graduate studies institute; (2) 15 October 1987 lettersubmitted by Dr. Virginia L. Aprleto, on behalf of concernedFisheries faculty, staff, students, and parents, reiterating their pro­posal for the retention of underpraduate programs in Diliman;and (31 5 November 1987 communication of the College of Fish­eries Student Council addressed to the Board of Regents, reiteratingtlkewlse its earlier request for a comprehensive investigation andrestudy of the merits of the transfer of the College to Miag.-ao.

The transfer is now a settled issue, having been decided. withthe proper consultation and consideration of the pros and cons, byappropriate authorities. In fact, following the Board's resolution atthe 914th meeting on 31 May 1979 establishing the U.P. vtsavas,the President of the Philippines issued on 30 October 1980 Execu­tive Order No. 628 "creating a University of the Philippines in thevtsavas as an autonomous member of the University of the Philip­pines Svstem,"

Among the reasons for the decision to establish the U.P. Visa­vas in the Miag.-ao campus and to transfer the College of Fisheriesthereto were: (1) the Ditirnan campus is not an appropriate environ­ment for fisheries research and extension since, from a technicalstandpoint, the location of a College of Fisheries requires proximityto the sea and availability of unpolluted natural seawater tor -itsmarine laboratories; and (21 an autonomous university in fisheriesand marine sciences located in Iloilo conforms with the policy ofthe national government to develop centers of excellence outsidethe National Capital Region.

While it is true that there are disadvantages to the transfer ofthe College of Fisheries to Miag-ao, tile long-term advantages ade­quately support the expansion of fisheries and marine scienceswithin the U.P. vrsaves. Pioneering work does entail tremendoussacrifice; the rewards. come later, and in various forms.

With this Memorandum, official announcement is hereby giventhat the transfer of the College of Fisheries which has alreadv beenstarted, shall proceed as scheduled. to be completed by summer1988. .

TO: The Chancellors, Directors andFaculty Members of the U.P..System

SUBJECT: Attendance requested at the Conferment Ceremoniesin honor of H.E. Prime Minister of Thailand,Prem Tinsunalonda

While the unpaid account of the University of the Philippiness~ecified i~ the news item pertains to U.P. OHiman alone, the mag­nitude thereof strongly points out the need for conservation in theuse of water by the University.

Related to the unpaid water accoUnts is the increasing cost theUniversity has to pay for power consumption. U.P. Dillman, forinstance, has accumulated a large unpaid account with MERALCO.This also points to the importance of energy conservation. Almosteveryone, perhaps, is now familiar with the campaign being under­taken by the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System,through television and billboards, for water conservation. Watershortage inevitably reduces the capacity for energy generation;hence, the need also to conserve electric energy.

In the light of these developments, Chancellors are advised toadopt and enforce strict measures towards economical use of water

The University of the Philippines is conferring the degree ofDoctor of Laws, honoris causa on H.E. 'Prime Minister Prem Tin­sunalonda of 'Thailand, on Sunday, 13 December 1987 at 4:30 p.m.at the Little Theatre, Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP).

In behalf of the University of the Philippines System, werespectfully appeal to the Chairman .the Decision dated August 25,1987 of the General Counsel of the Commission upholding the dis­allowance made by the Resident Auditor of U.P. Manila regardingthe grant of a P500 medical allowance to employees of the Univer­sity .

While the decision of the General Counsel refers only to thecase of U.P. Manila, we note that the decision affects as well thethree other autonomous campuses; hence, we are filing this appealfor the entire U.P. System.

The granting of a f'500 medical allowance was approved bythe U.P. Board of Regents on March 24,1987, independently of the

E.G. No. 147 identifies th_e source of fundin.9 for the fl2,900medical allowance granted therein. Thus:

Very truly yours,

"Section 5. The amounts necessary to implement thisExecutive Order shall be taken from the aggregate savings in1986 of the National Government. Any deficiency 'shall becharged against the Compensation and Organizational Adjust­ment Fund for 1987." (Underscoring ours.l

ISgd.l JOSE V. ABUEVAPresident

9 October 1987.

However, the P500 medical allowance was charged against the un­appropriated balance of income of the University as appropriatedfor the purpose by the U.P. Board of Regents. U.P. did not, there­fore, exceed the approved appropriation of P2,OOO per employeechargeable against savings of the National Government.

That the U.P. Board of Regents can appropriate funds out ofunappropriated balance of income for the P500 medical allowance isauthorized underSection 4, 5 and 7 of E.O. No. 714 in relation toSection 4 of the Memorandum of Agreement among the V.P., Com­mission on Audit and the Office of the Budget Management datedMarch 22, 1983 implementing the fiscal autonomy of the U.P. SyS­tem granted under E.O. No. 714. The U.P.-eOA Resident Auditor,Atty. Imelda D. Rodriguez, pointed .this out in her letter-justifica­tion dated .July 9, 1987, a copy of which is attached as Annex "B".

The COA General Counsel however, zeroed in on Section 4.0of the Memorandum of Agreement Implementing E.O. No. 714 as

an inluction against the grant of the P500 medical allowance.

The restrictive phrase in Section 4 of, the Memorandum ofAgreement limiting the power of the U.P, Board of Regents to de~

termine the compensation of the University personnel to the "ap­proved appropriation guided by constitutional and legislative policies

on compensation" does not apply to the appropriation made by theV.P. Board of Regents out of U.P. income for the P500 medical al­

lowance. In fact, the V.P. Board of Regents could have very welladopted a term for the P500 cash benefit different from "medicalallowance" and it would not find objection from the Commission.

\That the U.P. Board of Regents could appropriate U.P.'s savings

and income to provide benefits for its employees is an entirely diffe­rent matter. The fiscal autonomy of U.P. extends to those receivedby it pursuant to appropriations under the Annual Appropriations

Law and those income, receipts, and funds derived by it whichthrough its Board of Regents can be properly appropriated. Thelegislative policy in the enactment of E.O. No. 714 granting fiscalautonomy to the University was precisely to give U.P. the flexibilityto allocate and utilize its own resources with the wisdom and dis­patch its needs require.

To invoke that restrictive phrase against the grant made by theU.P, Board of Regents would necessarily admit that V.P. can appro­priate the P2,OOO per employee taken out of savings of the NationalGovernment. V.P., or all the government agencies for that matterwhose employees are beneficiaries of E.O. No. 147, has no dlscre­tion at all to appropriate the P2,OOO.OO. It merely acts as the agentof the National Government to hand over the benefits mandated byE.O. No. 147.

Lastly, we take note of the divergence in interpretation. forwhich we now invoke the rule calling for the' liberal interpretationof any social welfare enactment in favor of those seeking its bene­fits. A strict interpretation of the Resolution of the U.P. Board ofRegents as being circumscribed by E.O. No. 147 practically negatesthe grant of fiscal autonomy to the University and stifling the flexi-.bll ltv ·to allocate and util ize its resources. The qrant of P500 medi­cal allowance was borne out of the need to give U.P. employeesbenefits within U.P.'s limited resources. Tliat E.O. No. 147 allowedthe grant of a P2,OOO medical allowance per employee simply aug:ments - out of another source - the benefits accruing to U.P. ern-

Dear Ambassador Yusuf:

This is a reply to your letter requesting for the waiver of alienfees for Nigerian students studYing at the University of the Philip­pines,

Please be informed that the alien fee being charged to all tor­eign students is ONE THOUSANO PESOS "'1,000.00) and notTEN THOUSAND t-P10.0eX).oo). This amount is collected everysemester, while three hundred pesos t-P300,OOl is collected for thesummer term. The alien fee charged to all foreign students hasremained constant for the past 5 years.

Due to.the rise in the cost of operating the University, there isa proposal to increase the alien fee, but the exact amount has notvet been settled. The matter is being studied bv the University.

I am glad that you brought the plight of Nigerian students tomy attention for I am personally concerned with the welfare of stu­dents from Asia and Africa. You can be sure that in deciding theamount of the alien fee, the needs of students coming from coun­tries like the Pbitipplnes. will be given careful consideration,

Sincerely yours,

Dear Dean Lumen:

This is to grant your request contained in your letter dated 16September 1987 for permission to seek financial assistance from any

government agency to finish the construction of the academicbuilding of UP College Tacloban.

I wish to commend you for your initiative to help the UP Cen­tral Administration in securing additional funds to complete the

• construction of several buildings in UP campuses which unfortu­nately have been exposed to the elements for years because of lackof funds. Self-reliance among UP officials in fact should be en­couraged.

However, please be sure to inform the Office of the President ofany developments. favorable or otherwise. in order that the Univer­sity's efforts to secure additional funding support may be morecoordinated and thereby avoid unnecessary duplication which couldeven be embarrassing sometimes. You may wish, therefore, to fur­nish us copies of your communication with qcvemment agencies.

Even though many of us, including yourself, per­sonally feel the legitimacy of the desire of every Filipino to acquirehis own residential lot, we cannot allow Our personal humanitarianfeelings to subvert our dutv and responsibilltv as officials of theUniversity of the Philippines and of Quezon City to preserve -forposterity and many generations of students yet to come the integ­rity of the UP Dillman campus.

While the immediate demands of the Homeowners Associationfor political reasons might seem pressing in the short run, we knowthat we can count on your personal support and that of youroffice in resisting all encroachments on the UP Diliman campus.As in the past, we depend on our duly constituted authorities likeyour office and the National Housing Authority to help the Univer­sity resettle on a top priority basis all squatters and illegal claimantsof UP property in designated areas.

.,""j "...... ..... , ...-side of it. Since you yourself say these are rumors, perhaps it might

be a good idea to check on the facts first.The source of your information is clearly prejudiced and eager

to spread disinformation and confusion. The same source I havelearned has been waging a campaign in the media and with otherpolitical leaders.

The allegations that are reflected in your letter suggest that Iam being swayed by the petty desires of otherwise responsible mem­bers of the faculty and the staff" of PGH who have written me re­garding the existence of a better site for the OPD than the one thathas been determined and planned for.

As President of the Universitv, it is my duty and obligation toascertain the validity of this advice before I commit the University.to 'the chosen site by signing the contract for the commencement ofthe work on the OPD. Accordingly, I ordered the.very temporary

suspension of preccnstruction preparations for the OPD. Having

done this, I proceeded to meet with the persons concerned at theJICA and the Japanese Embassy, and in less than a day, I made upmy mind to agreeto the resumption of the work.

In the meantime. however, your source nas been spreadingfalse .rumors regarding my motives and actions. Your letter clearlyestablished that the source of your information seems deeply threat­ened by the on-qoinq reorganization 'of UP Manila which has beenauthorized by the Board of Regents. This reorganization is the resultof many months of conflict and controversy in UP Manila, particu­larly the College of Medicine and the Philippine General Hospital,which had led to the mass leave of members of the faculty of the

College of Medicine, and negative publicity for the U.P. It is alsovery clear from your letter why some members of the UP Manilastaff feel so agitated about the reorganization even though it is be­ing carried out with the democratic participation of all elements onthat campus. It is these persons whom I need not name becausetheyare well known, who are spreading the rumor that the reorqaniza­tion is an "excuse to ease out certain high officials in the PGH andUP Manila campus whose appointments all carry specific terms ofoffice." It is grossly unfair that these persons are suggesting that thePresident and the Board of Regents of the University are motivatedby this purpose. I have not seen this Resolution No. 422 of theHouse of Representatives but I can only guess what it contains.From what you say in the letter, I certainly will try to get a copy ofthe Resolution.

But 1 am deeply disturbed by your letter which amounts to athreat to stop the reorganization in the Universitv of the Philippineswhich has been democratically decided by the faculty and staff ofthe campus concerned and duly authorized by the Board of Regentsupon the recommendation of the President. The threat of aCongres­sional investigation is a very serious one and we in the University ­faculty, students and staff - vo:,ill surely react to this threat in waysthat may be regrettable for all. Having regained our freedom fromthe dictatorship, we are gradually rebuilding the institutions of ourconstitutional democracy. While Congress has sweeping legislativepowers, it should also respect the autonomy and academic freedomof universities which are guaranteed in the Constitution.

the Secretary of the University- is also the Secretary of the Board ofRegents: tbls means that the University is ready to assist any Regentin the performance of his duties.

6. The University's system of promotion and wages is beingseriously examined to enhance the well-being of our faculty andstaff: i.e., REPS and.administrative personnel.

7. Democratic consultation and collegiality shall be the hall­mark of the present U.P. administration.

8-9. Accouhtability to our people shall be an ethical principlegoverning the behavior of every member of our University commu­nity - faculty, administration, students, staff. No abuse of powernor any form of graft and corruption shall be tolerated: All casesfounded on evidence shall be investigated with absolute respect forhuman dignity and due process.

tiberative ... for tHe welfare and benefit of the Filipino people."We are grateful for your interest in a better untversttv. Indeed,

you would enable us to achieve this general objective the sooner ifyour "demands" could be made more specific, and concrete mea­

Dear secretary carague:

This is a follow-up of our letter of 6 October 1987 appealing~or reconsideration of the action taken on the adjustment of U.P.personnel under National Compensation Circular lNCC) No. 47,particularly that of the adjustment for our teaching staff.

As previously explained, our faculty salaries have been leftbehind in view of the exclusion of the Universitvfrom the eniov­

ment of the maximum salary adjustments under NCe No. 47.Public school teachers and faculty of other State Universities andColleges (SUC's) got a 20% adjustment in their salaries while thefaculty of UP got only 5%.

The disparity in the granting of nationally declared. benefitsis eroding the morale of our personnel. By the very nature of theUniversity's goals and commitments to Philippine society, UP per­sonnel particularly the faculty, must exert rigorous intellectualeffort and meet strict qualification criteria. May we also point outthat besides teaching, our faculty also performs research and exten­sian work. In addition, the U.P. salary scale has not been com­petitive resulting in our inability to attract, much less retain highlytrained personnel.

For these reasons, may we.reiterate our request for the releaseof funds to adjust the salaries of our faculty, Initially, we requested

for the ~justmentof all personnel. However, if that is not possible,may we request that the amount of "19.966 million needed to ad­just the salaries of our teaching staff be released.

We trust that the.administration of President Aquino Issuppor­tive of science and technology end higher education in general inwhich UP is a leading contributor and panicipant.

I would like to commend the UP Pre-Medical Society and theAssociation of Chemistry Students for undertaking a worthy activ­ity - the raising of funds to aid the Kapwa Ko, Mahal Ko Founde­tion, and to extend free medical and dental care to the poor andunderprivileged.

I am happy and proud that UP students care enough to pausefrom their studies to reach out to help those who are less fortunate.Activities such as these remind us that the whole point in getting aneducation is to help build a better society.

I therefore enjoin the constituents and friends of the UP tosupport the movie benefit sponsored by these two organizations.

I wish you Godspeed, and may you persist in your commit­ments.

I would like to commend the UP~tudents: who are natives and

residents of Caqavan ~e Oro in their effort to share their UP ex­perlences with high school students from their city. Their projectof holding an annual' quiz show and a symposium about UP is a fineexample of the initiative and creativitvct our youth.

The UP Kaqavhaian is also to be congratulated for organizingtheir fellow Caqavanos in order to give their members a sense ofbelonging ~nd camaraderie during their sojourn in Manila. I hopethat as Caqavenons they will also share something about their fasci­nating province to those of us from Metro Manila, Luzon and the

Visayas.Ours is a country with peoples of varied and rich cultural heri­

tage and who espouse different views. One of the contributions of

UP education is. to respect and promote the variety of cultures and.pluralltv of views of our people. These are the sources of enrichingour national life; they teach us tolerance and widen our horizons.Towards this end, I encourage the UP Kagayha-an in undertakingthe quiz show and symposium and similar activities.

With all best wishes for your success in the worthy activities,

JOSE V. ABU EVAPresident

In reply to your query dated December 4, 1987 regarding theleaves of Chancellor Lorenzo and Dean Romualdez, quoted belowis an opinion from the University General Counsel as follows:

1. Trieir leaves of absence should be charged against theirleave credits. Their leave being "forced" leave or volun­

tary is immaterial.2. Representation and transportation allowances are granted

to those on active duty. Necessarily, one who is on leavewould have no reason to claim entitlement to such at­

tcwences.I concur with the opinion of the University General Counsel.

, Now that the nation is undergoing reconstruction, it continuesto play its role befitting the premier Catholic student organizationin the University. Its "Education and Values Formation Program,"the aim of which is to form more socially aware and responsivestudents, is One example of the kind of program the Administrationseeks to encourage.

In this connection, I wholeheartedly endorse UPSCA's annual"Papuri" which, this year, is presented through the play Ang Diyos,ang Tao at ~i tmen, I enjoin the University community to patronizeand support this wholesome play, which aims to raise funds tostrengthen the organization's Values Formation Program.
