    The Lim family in the politics of Tibiao
    Calawag, Jelvet Amor E. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 1998-03)
    This research documents and explains the emergence and persistence of the Lim family in the politics of Tibiao. Through interviews and archival research, the study reveals that even before any member of the Lim family entered the politics, they were already one of the prominent families in Tibiao. Their evolution as politicians could be traced back to an ancestor as early as 1919. They become well known and strong in local politics because of their rich political resources (including land, financial capability, human capabilities), their prestigious and historic name and the support of big politicians and other relatives. Their activities and philanthropic deeds as politicians enhanced their family's image; they are highly regarded, respected and trusted by the people. It is concluded that the family maintains their dominance in electoral politics by manifesting their concern to the people using government resources and utilizing their political resources.

    Statement ang Malolo: An analysis of an Ilonggo concept
    Bartonico, Alora Grace P. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2010-04)
    This paper examines the different perspectives that have been used to define the meaning of Ilonggo concept malolo. It argues that the concept malolo derives not only its linguistic characteristics but it is also manifested through observable behaviors of Ilonggos. It reviews the meaning of the concept across history by inspecting some pieces of Ilonggo literature of the 20th century. This paper also examines the meaning of the term as it is understood by today's speakers themselves. It describes the use of the term malolo as a stereotype for Ilonggos by both Hiligaynon and non-Hiligaynon speakers. It observes that the concept has different uses and meanings across generations; as well, the understanding of the concept differs from rural and urban areas
