    Philippine Armed Forces different response towards different communists insurgents in the Island of Panay a comparative study on the 47th Infantry Battalion and 32nd Civil Relations Unit

    Communist insurgency is one of the most long withstanding national security problem in the Philippines. There has been no ebb in the counter insurgency measures of the government since the Marcos regime to the present. However, the changes in the communist organization brought about institutional changes on the military’s part. In the current counterinsurgency operations by the armed forces units, there is now an emphasis on unarmed approaches such as civil-military operations, propaganda, psychological warfare and socio-civic activities, instead of just solely conducting armed approaches. Linkages, coordination and collaboration with the local government units in promoting development became significant elements in counterinsurgency operations. This paper examines the different kinds of approaches undertaken by the 47th Infantry Battalion at Calinog, Iloilo and the Civil Relation Service of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (CRSAFP) in Camp Delgado, Iloilo City toward communist insurgents. The 47th IB and the 32nd CRU are currently conducting a triad approach in the counterinsurgency operations. This triad approach includes combat operations, intelligence and socio-civic operations. In delegating the command from commanding officer to the operating units, the chain of command is well observed and followed. In addressing the insurgency problem, the AFP units have high regards toward local government authorities. Education, training and years in service as well as coordination and cooperation with local civil counterparts affect their competence in operations undertaken.

    Stakeholder dynamics in the Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan (KSK) farmers' training Program and its impact on local farmers
    Bongcayo, Kate Jocelle A.; Marcon, Jo-Ann Marie O. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2019-06)
    This research study investigates the collaboration of the stakeholders involved in the implementation of Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan (KSK) Fanners' Training Program and its impact on the socio-economic condition of the local fanners in Municipality of Badiangan and Iloilo City. Using key informant interviews of actors involved in the program implementation and a survey of participants, the dynamics and mechanisms of the stakeholder collaboration and its effects were identified. The data revealed that the KSK was implemented through the joint efforts of SM Foundation (SMFI), regional offices of the national government agencies such as the Department of Agriculture (DA) and Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and their local counterparts in the governments of Badiangan and Iloilo City, Harbest Agribusiness Corporation, and the venues for the training program, Ephrathah Fanns and Tiu Cho Teg-Ana Ros Foundation Integrated School. These organizations from the public and private sectors worked together, each having a specific role, in conducting the training sessions of the KSK in the span of 12 weeks. The KSK was designed as a dual-tech training program composed of briefing and hands-on field practice. Accordingly, it was assessed by the participants to have a positive impact for both locales since the training program provided more knowledge on farming practices as well as generated more sources of livelihood that led to increased income and improved quality production. Also, the training became a ground for participants to form external social ties and build their networks to gain opportunities to sell their produce in local markets and in large supermarkets.
