QUOTED

Malaon nang sinasabingmagkatambal ang kasaysayan ngPhilippine Collegian at ng Unibersidadng Pilipinas. Sa mga pahina ng Kuldumaloy ang sanga-sangang istoryang pagsibol, paglago at pagbabagong-hubog ng pamantasan.

Kung noong panahon matapos ngIkalawang Digmaang Pandaigdig ayisyu ng academic reedom ang tampoksa mga pahina ng Kul, represyongpulitikal at laganap na paniniilnaman ang ibinandera nito noongkasagsagan ng diktaduryang Marcos.Sa panahong kinailangang suriin angmga suliraning panlipunan sa isangpangkabuuang tanaw, inigpawan ngKul ang tradisyunal na porma ngpamamayahag ng mga pahayagang

pangkampus at niyakap ang pag-uulat ng mga isyung labas pa sa mgaaktibidad ng mga estudyante mgaisyung tumatalakay sa mga batayangsektor ng lipunan.

Sa kasalukuyan, tampoksa mga pahina ng Kul ang isasa pinakamalalaking suliraningkinahaharap ng pamantasan angsistemikong pagliit ng inilalaangsubsidyo ng pamahalaan para saoperasyon at patuloy na pag-iralnito bilang pamantasan ng bayan.Sa susunod na taon, tanging P5.54bilyon lamang ng kabuuang P17bilyong pangangailangan ng UPang nakatakdang ibigay ngpamahalaan, isang dagok nanagbunsod ng malawakang

kilos-protestang isinagawang mga mag-aaral, guroat kawani ng pamantasankamakailan.

Ngunit hindi lamang angpamantasan ang nakadarama ngpagliit ng pondo. Tila masamang biroman, ngunit maging sa usapin ngsalapi ay tila hindi mapaghihiwalayang tadhana ng UP at Kul. Sakasalukuyan, nanatiling P40 ang singilsa bawat mag-aaral kada semestrepara sa publikasyon ng Kul 1989pa noong una itong ipatupad, halos 22taon na ang lumipas. Kung isasaalang-alang ang pagtaas ng presyo ng

magpapatuloy ang paglalathala ngKul sa susunod na tatlo hanggangapat na taon.

Gaya ng paniniwalang hindimakasasapat na solusyon sakakulangan ng pondo ng UP angpagpapaupa ng lupa at pagtaas ngmatrikula, batid ng kasalukuyangpatnugutan na panandaliang sagotlamang ang paglikom ng donasyonpara sa Kul, at hinog na ang panahonupang muling ilatag sa mga mag-aaralng UP sa inyong aming mambabasaat tagapaglathala na kinakailangangumentuhan ang singil para sa

publikasyon.Kambal ngang maituturing ang

tadhana ng UP at ng Kul parehongnasa bingit ng pagkawala bunsodsa kakulangan ng pondo. At gaya ngpatuloy na paggiit ng UP para sa masmataas na subsidyo, muling susugalang patnugutan ng Kul sa susunod nasemestre, at masikap na ipalalaganapat ipauunawa sa mga estudyante angkahalagahan ng umento sa patuloy napag-iral ng pahayagan.

bilihin, wala pang P23 ang infation-adjusted value ng P40 Collegian eena sinisingil hanggang sa kasalukuyan.Mahigit dalawang dekada na angnagdaan mula nang huling magtaasng singil ang Kul, at bunsod ngpatuloy na pagtaas ng presyo ngpapel at pagpapaimprenta, taun-taon ay suliranin para sa patnugutankung paano pagkakasyahin anghindi na lumalaking pondo nito. Ibatibang porma na ng pagtitipid angipinatupad mula sa pagpapababa nghonorarium ng mga kawani hanggangsa pagbabawas hindi lamang ngmga pahina ng pahayagan kunghindi maging ng bilang ng isyu kadasemestre.

Ngunit gaano man tipirin ang

pondo ng Kul, sadyang hindi na sapatang nakokolekta mula sa mga mag-aaral upang pondohan ang operasyonnito. Taun-taon, tinatayang lampasP230,000 ang kakulangan sa badyetng Kul, kakulangang sa hulingnakaraang limang taon ay napunanng pondong hindi nagamit noong AY2006-2007, bunsod ng paghihigpit ngadministrasyon ng UP sa patnugutanhinggil sa paghawak ng pondo ngpahayagan kasabay ng sapilitannitong pagtaas sa matrikula at ibapang bayarin. Nagbunsod ang iringanng pagkaantala sa publikasyon ngKul noong panahong iyon, at mahigit

isang milyong piso ang natirasa pondo ng Kul. Nagamit

ang salaping ito ng mga

For over our decades, hePhilippines has been he batlegroundor he ongoing conic beween he

governmen and armed rebels o heCommunis Pary o he Philippines(CPP). This year, he Aquinoadminisraion and he NaionalDemocraic Fron o he Philippines(NDFP) have opened anoher roundo peace alks, wih he aim o endinghe longes-running insurgency in heworld.

This ime around, negoiaionssared on February 2011, in he wakeo a weeklong ceasere beweenhe Armed Forces o he Philippines(AFP) and he CPPs armed wing, heNew Peoples Army (NPA). Peacealks had been salled since 2004,amids a global US-led war on error,when hen-Presiden Gloria Arroyoincluded he CPP-NPA and is legal

ron, he NDFP, in a lis o errorisorganizaions.According o he phasing o he

curren peace alks, he Governmeno he Philippines (GPH) and he NDFPwere se o reach a compromise onsocial and economic reorms (SER)his Sepember. By February 2012,here should have been a setlemenregarding poliical and consiuionalreorms; and by June 2012, an end ohosiliies.

However, as o October, the SERdiscussions have not even begun. Thedelays have been primarily caused by theNDFPs demand or the releaseo political prisoners,according to Ednar

Dayanghirang,c h a i r p e r s o n

o the GPH ReciprocalCommitee on SER. Apparenly,

mas imporane sa kanila ang prisonerrelease han he agreemen on SER,he mea o he soluion o his 40-year old war, Dayanghirang says.

The NDFP explains, however, hahe release o poliical prisoners isno merely an incidenal demand. Iis a crucial rs sep, a condence-building measure ha would creae

a avorable climae or peacenegoiaions, as sipulaed in heHague Join Declaraion signed in1992, which saes ha he peacealks aims o atain jus and lasingpeace and he cessaion o hosiliiesin he counry.

I he GPH canno keep is word onhe relaively simple release o poliicalprisoners, how can anyone expec i okeep is word on more comprehensiveand ar-reaching agreemens suchas SER? noes Rey Casambre o hePhilippine Peace Cener.

Delaying tacticsSo ar, he GPH has released our

o he 17 poliical prisoners who areNDFP negoiaors, consulans and

personnel. However, Tirso Alcanaraand Alan Jazmines boh arresed lasJanuary, on he eve o he peace alks,or rumped-up charges o murderand rebellion remain in prison.Alcanara was an NDFP consulanwhile Jazmines is a member o heNDFP Reciprocal Working Commiteeon SER.

They should have beenprotected by the JointAgreement on

Immunityand Saety

Guarantees (JASIG),says NDFP chie negotiator

Luis Jalandoni.The JASIG provides immunity rom

surveillance, harassment, search, arrest,detention, prosecution and interrogationor all NDFP and GPH negotiating panelmembers.

Casambre also cies he OsloJoin Saemen signed in 2004,which saes ha he Paries agreeha he release o prisoners is aconinuing condence-buildingmeasure moivaed by a muual desireo improve he amosphere or peacenegoiaions.

Ye GPH chie negoiaor Alex

Padilla claims ha he agreemen isinoperaive in he call or he release.Dayanghirang adds ha he NDFPhad no presened a JASIG lis whichwould serve as evidence ha heseconsulans-urned-poliical prisonerswere in ac proeced by JASIG.

The GPHs reusal o adhere ohe JASIG and Oslo Saemen byhrowing up echnicaliies could onlyserve as a blo on he inegriy o hegovernmen, says Casambre. Aer all,he release o poliical prisoners is n osimply a precondiion or he peacealks, i is a longsanding obligaion ohe governmen, Jalandoni adds.

Root problemsHowever, ar beyond discussions

o precondiions, setings andschedules, he core o any seriousconsideraion o he peace alks is henecessiy o address he roocauses o povery.

The peacetalks must

thenbe placed

in the context osocietal ills in the country

caused by the concentrationo land and economic power in the

counrys ruling elie, says IBONFoundation research head Sonny Arica.

The GPH and CPP, bohassured equal saus as separae governmens under he HagueDeclaraion, have difering views onhe roo causes o povery.

The CPP mainains ha genuineagrarian reorm and naionalindusrializaion are he key oaddressing he grim socioeconomiccondiions in he Philippines. Thiswould enail a redisribuion o land,reclamaion o naional parimonyover he counrys resources, andseting up naional indusries.

Meanwhile, he GPH proposedasse reorm and indusrial policyas alernaive soluions, according

o he GPHs dra on SER. Assereorm means reorms in he areaso agriculure, shery, oresry andmounains. Indusrial policy, on heoher hand, reers o privae ownershipo indusries wih minimal governmenregulaion, explains Dayanghirang.

The GPH has also ciedenvironmenal degradaion as aroo cause o povery, leading ounemploymen and landlessness,among ohers.

However, environmenaldegradaion merely aggravaesexising condiions; i is no isel aprimary cause o povery, accordingo Kalikasan-Peoples Nework orhe Environmen.

Ethere is an

diference in ideolhe wo conending pvarious sakeholders regarding he possisuccess o peace alks.

The Moro Islamic Liberaion Fron(MILF) has ound an ap meaphoror heir posiion and ha o heGovernmen o he Philippines (GPH)in heir ongoing peace negoiaions:heaven and earh. The meaphorimplies ha he wo would never mee

on he same plane, a air observaion ohe oucome o he GPH-MILF peacealks ha inormally began 14 yearsago. And, when he MILF rejeced hepeace proposal o GPH las Augus 23,prospecs or progress in he peacealks have seemingly grown dimmer.

The GPH showed a 3-or-1proposal o he MILF, one which sands or hree componens orone single soluion o he problemo Bangsamoro, according o asaemen by GPH Peace PanelChair Marvic Leonen. The hreecomponens o he proposal includemassive economic developmen,poliical setlemen wih MILF andculural-hisorical acknowledgemen. I seeks no only o provide a jus

and lasing peace o he roubledsouh bu more so o improve andupli he lives o he people who havelong suered rom he brualiy odecades-long armed conic, addsLeonen.

In essence, he GPH pushes orreorms in he Auonomous Region inMuslim Mindanao (ARMM). The MILF,however, has anoher plan in mind.

Bangsamoro is now fghtingor real autonomy

through a

subsae,assers MILFnegoiaor AbdullaCamlian.

MILF claims ha Moros will

be able o conrol all aspecs ogovernance wih a subsae, excepor securiy, oreign aairs, currencyand coinage, and posal services.Unlike he ARMM, a subsae wouldenjoy less governmen inervenionin erms o poliical, inernal deenseand scal auonomy aspecs. Thesubsae would also enail ha hesae would have wo senae seas.

Dead-endGPH, however, does no

approve o a subsae. Pursuinga subsae is difcul since irequires consiuional change andnaional plebiscie, says GRP PeacePanelis Pro. Miriam Colonel Ferrer.Improving he curren ARMM law

and he creaion o a new OrganicAc ha will dene he scope andlimiaions o he Moros is a moreeasible recourse, adds Ferrer.

This is no he rs ime GPHdisagreed wih a milian IslamicGroup.

During he early days o he MILF,when i was sill par o he MoroNaional Liberaion Fron (MNLF),i called or separaion wherein asae rom he curren Bangsamororegion which is composed o NorhCoabao, Lanao del Nore, CoabaoCiy, and Palawan. The Ferdinand

Marcos adminisraion did noyield o he demand, and

insead proposedhe insiuion

o an

auonomousregion.

The MNLF evenuallyrelened o he proposal o heGPH. Aer he 1974 Organizaiono he Islamic Conerence, heMNLF downgraded is demand oa Philippine subsae exclusive oMoros, where a residual and sharedpower o adminisraion would beenjoyed by he GPH and hen-MNLF.

Two years laer, GPH oered ocreae he Auonomous Region oMuslim Mindanao (ARMM)andsurprisingly, MNLF conceded. Thisconcession was no acceped bysome members o MNLF, who laerspli rom he group and ormed he

MILF.The MILF would coninue hearmed resisance agains GPH, givingrise o he ormal launch o he GPH-MILF peace alks in 1999.

Throughou he course o hepeace alks, MILF repeaedly raisedhe issue on ancesral domain.Thisissue was almos resolved when in2008, a Memorandum o Agreemenon Ancesral Domain (MOA-AD)beween he Arroyo adminisraonand he MILF was proposed. TheMOA-AD sough o expand hecurren area o ARMM and esablishhe Bangsamoro Juridical Eniy.These provisions, however, almosequaed o he creaion o a sovereignsae, again creaing problems due

unconsiuionaliy, he2008 MOA-AD did no prosper dueo allegaions o US inervenion. Forinsance, socioeconomic projecsin Mindanao will be unded by heWorld Bank and he US Agency orInernaional Developmen underhe MOA-AD. Las Augus, onlinewhisleblower Wikileaks releasedManila cablegaes veriying USparicipaion in he ormulaion ohe MOA-AD.

Such US inervenion in hecounrys aairs presens adisurbing patern, says ormerBayan Muna Rep. Saur Ocampo. TheUS apparenly believes ha i can dowha i wans wih Mindanaos nauralresources by dealing wih he MILF inhe Bangsamoro raher han wih henaional governmen, adds Ocampo.

The MILF did no deny i requesedhe US o inervene in he MOA-AD.For hem, US poliical inuence is apoen acor ha could subsaniallygran heir aspiraion or a subsae.Kahi na anong bansa, US man yan ohindi, nakikipag -ugnayan kami paralang makami ang hinihingi naming

Kung wala nang magaganap naaberya, magkakaroon na ako sawakas ng diploma maapos ang higina isang dekada. Hindi ko masabinghindi ko pinagsisihan ang maagal napagka-anala ng pagaapos ko sakolehiyo.

Pero hindi korin naman lubos na masabi na napunasa wala ang limang aong ginugol kosa labas ng unibersidad. Nais kongpaniwalaan na naging makabuluhannaman ang naging dahilan ng akingmga pagka-anala.

When he New Peoples Army(NPA) decided o raid he hree miningsies in Surigao del Nore, he media,i seems, only saw he burned down10 dump rucks, he eigh backhoesand a gues house, as he Inquirerhad repored. The news repored hesory o he hree securiy guards whodied in he said raids, and he hreemining corporaions: Taganio MiningCorporaion, Taganio HPAL NickelCorp. and he Plainum Group MealsCorp. who were allegedly coerced byhe NPA o pay revoluionary axes.

In mining sories old by hemainsream media, he spolighappears o be ocused on how he NPAhas harassed he mining company, howhe group has hreaened ocialso he company o pay revoluionaryaxes, someimes agging he ac as

For, even i he mining companiesare porrayed as vicims in his sory,

panahon na iyon, nauunan ko kahipapano ang sinasabi nilang halaga ngpaggawa a kung paanong naabuso anapagsasamanalahan kahi na iyongmga nakapag-aral sa UP.

Mas naging ullling para sa akinang sumunod kong rabaho bilangsaf ng isang non-governmenorganizaion (NGO) na umuulongsa mga pangmasang organisasyon samga komunidad para paunlarin angkanilang agrikulura a ianga angsiwasyon ng kalusugan.

Maraming bagay na hindi konauunan sa unibersidad a samga librong nabasa ko ay nakiako sa mga pinakaliblib na siio apinakanagdarahop na komunidad.Hindi ko noon lubos mawari kung bakipinili ng mga aong inuulungan ngNGO na umira sa mga pagkalayu-layong lugar na madalas pa ngang hindiinaabo maging ng signal ng cellphone.Hindi naglaon, uni-uni ko ringnainindihan na hindi nila io kusangpinili, na iinaboy sila sa kabundukanng kawalan ng lupang masasaka apagkakabuhayan. Bagama sala sapormal na edukasyon, malay sila samga pagkukulang ng gobyerno kungkaya hindi nila lubos na iniaasa sa mgaNGO ang pagulong sa kanila. Sa halip,

realiy ells us ha hey are in achardly so. Beyond he rubble ha wasle o ha gues house, herein lie heremains o wha once was perhaps ahriving communiy, he displacemeno which he mainsream media ailedo repor.

Oen, a mining venure involveshe displacemen o an indigenouspeoples communiy rom hemounain or area hey have been livingin or decades. Wheher hey werehreaened, abused or simply drivenaway, he ac ha he mining venurehas disruped and ruined lives cannobe denied. The mounains, aer all,no only provide a place o live in orhemi is also heir source o ood,o livelihood. The lie o he mounainand ha o he communiy o heindigenous peoples have become

inexricably inerwined. To ake hemounain away rom hem is almoslike depriving hem o he righ o lie.

Sill, even i he communiychooses o resis displacemen,evading he hreas o he miningcompany o leave he area, hemembers would soon realize ha heymigh have o give in evenually. They

Sa kabila ng kabuluhang nakia kosa huli kong rabaho, napagpasyahankong bumalik sa pag-aaral. Gayongnaniniwala ako na hindi sukaanng maaari kong magawa para sasarili a sa bayan ang pagkakaroonng degree, ang pagaapos ko sakolehiyo ay ila kabanaa ng isangkwenong guso kong sarhan.
