DISASTER TANAGA II


RESILIENCY 
KT Guiang

Are we able to go back
To yesterday's life track
Or will transform and resist
Get ourselves out of this trap?




LANGUAGE OF DISASTER
DD Reyes

A man took food from a store
The city, post-disaster
He needs to eat to survive
Should he be called a looter?




MATA
GZ Siapo

Dumaan na ang mata
Tambad sa mga mata
Dilat na mga mata
At inyong pangmamata.




SYSTEM-MAGNIFIED DISASTER
MA Carpon

Biktima ng sistema
Sa buhay ay hikahos
Nalantad pa sa unos
Lalo nang nabusabos.




DISASTER POLITICS
MSH Betito

While victims mourn and suffer
Others felt the need to work
Not to help and not to care
But to project as the "good".




STATE ABANDONMENT
MS Zubiri

There is calm after the storm
Ten thousand bereft of life,
Countless injured, most missing
Including the government.




SYSTEM-INDUCED DISASTERS
MS Zubiri

Most disasters are unseen
Or perhaps seen but ignored
On sidewalks, under bridges
The winds of hunger are strong.




TRAGEDY PORNOGRAPHY
EJA Dela Cruz

Nilente na ang lahat
Hanggang sa mga ugat
Trahedyang aming sugat
Tiningnan lang sa balat.

DS 100

Aralin mabuti ang Rethinking Development na inakda ni Prop Roland Simbulan at ang mga nakaraang talakayan sa klase para sa pagsusulit ngayong Biyernes.  Makakatulong ang pagbuo ng reviewer. Patuloy na pagbutihin ang pag-aaral.  Pumasok din ng maaga.

Pagtatangi

Biguin ang lumalaganap na environmental racism, health racism at disaster racism sa iba't ibang lipunan sa daigdig.  Walang puwang ang mga ito sa lipunang progresibo at demokratiko.


Tesis

Ang pangkaunlarang pananaliksik ay hindi lamang isang pang-akademikong rekisito sa kurso kundi personal at politikal na adbokasiya rin tungo sa isang maunlad na lipunang nakabatay sa katarungan (rights-based development). Ito ang gumagabay sa mga estudyante ng pag-aaral pangkauswagan at sa lahat ng mag-aaral ng lipunan at kilusang pagbabago sa DSS. #todopush #arkinemanemjaylizmaramydec4

PROJECT PADAYON

Suportahan natin ang PROJECT PADAYON ng UP Devstud NSTP para makalikom sila ng pondong iaambag sa pagbili ng mga sumusunod na itutulong sa mga nasalanta ng bagyong Yolanda:
- maseselang kagamitan para sa mga kababaihan (hal. sanitary napkin)
- sabon, alkohol at iba pang kagamitang pangkalusugan
- babasahin para sa silid-aklatan ng SHS sa Palo, Leyte
- binhi ng gulay

Disaster capitalism

- Maging mapagbantay sa disaster capitalism/shock doctrine/stratehiyang gulpi-de-gulat ng US.
- Mag-ingat sa mga ayudang (aid) may mga kaakibat na di-makatarungang kondisyones (conditionalities) na karaniwang iniaalok ng Global North sa mga mahihirap na bansa sa Global South na nasa gitna ng ligalig at disoryentasyon bunga ng kalamidad.
- Ang mga kondisyones na ito ay may layuning bagunin ang balangkas ng ekonomiya ng bibiktimahing bansa alinsunod sa kanilang preskripsyon o higit pang pagpapaigting/pagpapalawig ng kanilang pang-ekonomya at panlipunang impluwensya sa bansa.
- Isang makabayang pamahalaan at kritikal na hanay ng mamamayan ang epektibong panlaban sa mga pakanang ito.  Epektibo ring tambalan ito ng internasyunalisasyon ng pakikibaka laban sa disaster capitalism.

Basahin ang mga akda ni Naomi Klein upang mas mapalalim ang pagkakaunawa sa estratehiyang ito.

Random points

- Huwag maniwala nang basta-basta sa pumoposturang "savior theory".
- Laging itanong: Sustainable development for whom?
- Mainstream mass media = mess media; telebisyon = telebisyo
- Disaster capitalism is a disaster itself.
- Learn from critical psychology to better understand yourself, others and the society.
- Mahalagang malaman, masuri at matugunan ang pinag-uugatan ng research fatigue, aid fatigue, donation fatigue, at green fatigue.

Paalala po

Maging responsable tayong lahat sa mga mensaheng ipinapadaan sa social media.  Ang paggamit ng kalayaang ito ay kailangang ginagabayan ng katwiran, katarungan, pananagutan, at disiplina.  Malaki ang responsibilidad ng mga bumubuong sektor sa pamantasan tulad ng mga guro, mag-aaral at mananaliksik upang maging modelo ng kritikal, matalino at etikal na paggamit ng kalayaan at napakamakapangyarihang teknolohiyang ito.
Isaisip din na kapwa mahalaga ang mismong mensahe (what, content) at ang paraan kung paano (how, form) ito ipinapahayag.

Pop Culture and Peter Pan Economics


"Popular culture is the new opium of the masses and equilibrium theories in the social sciences are for escapist academics." - Dr. Edberto Villegas

Mayroong toxic na subject na toxic din ang mismong prof.

Our country needs a comprehensive and sustainable disaster response and rehabilitation program that will go beyond mere random acts of kindness and media mileage. 

Of course, equal credence should be accorded to disaster mitigation and preparedness.

Walang lipunan ang umunlad at wala ring komunidad ang sumailalim sa ganap na rehabilitasyon sa pamamagitan lamang ng random acts of kindness at kaipokrituhan ng mga politiko tuwing may kalamidad.

NINGAS BAO


1. Ningas-kugon = pakitang-tao, pansamantala, pagpapasiklab lamang, bunga lamang ng habag

2. Ningas-bao = sustenable, likas-kaya, sistematiko, bunga ng panlipunang pananagutan at malalim na pakikipagkapwa

Ang ikalawa ay ating mas masasandigan sa lahat ng pagkakataon - panahon man o hindi ng kalamidad.

Ginawan ko ng fruit at vegetable juice ang tatay ko.

Unang concoction ay cucumber, apple at ashitaba. Ok naman daw.
Ikalawang concoction ay cucumber, pineapple, apple, celery & malunggay. Napaitan daw siya:) #sanamagingmabilisangrecoveryniya

Anunsyo

Hindi muna ako magkaklase sa Martes at Miyerkules (Nov 12-13).  Sa halip ay magbibigay muna ako ng mga takdang babasahin sa pamamagitan ng blog na ito.  Pakisabi po sa iba.  Maraming salamat.

Development Studies

- multidisiplinal na larangan ng Agham Panlipunan
- iniluwal ito ng layuning mas maunawaan ang kalagayan at tuwirang matugunan ang pangangailangan ng mga bansang dating kolonya at nanatiling atrasado ang ekonomya
- ginagamit ang mga disiplina ng Ekonomiks, Agham Pampolitika, Sosyolohiya, Agham Tao, Pamamahala, Ekolohiya at iba pa upang aralin ang kaunlaran at kahirapan
- komplikado ang proseso ng pag-unlad at ang problema ng kahirapan kaya pinaka-epektibo itong masusuri gamit ang multidisiplinal na paraan
- ang larangang ito ay maaaring aralin sa iba't ibang antas - BA, MA at PhD
- mahalaga ang pag-aaral na ito lalo na sa mga mahihirap at papaunlad na bansa sa Asya, Latin Amerika at Aprika na may naiibang katangiang pang-ekonomya at panlipunan kung ikukumpara sa mga mauunlad na bansa sa Europa at Hilagang Amerika
- may kaugnayan ang kursong ito sa Development Policy, Development Geography, Development Communication, Development Anthropology, Gender and Development, Development Management o Development Administration, Global Health and Development, International Humanitarian Work, at iba pa (ang ilan pa nga sa mga ito ay itinuturing na subspecialization ng Development Studies)
- mas tumitingkad ang pangangailangan sa mga dalubhasa ng larangang ito lalo na sa kasalukuyang yugto ng lumalalang suliraning panlipunan tulad ng kahirapan, kagutuman, kalamidad, pagkasira ng kalikasan, disintegrasyon ng mga komunidad, at iba pa
- dapat taglayin ng mga scholar at practitioner ng Development Studies ang pagiging kritikal, masigasig na mag-aaral, maalam sa mga konsepto at prinsipyo ng kaunlaran, mahusay magpahayag, epektibo at etikal na mananaliksik, may malasakit sa interes ng batayang sektor, bihasa sa pag-oorganisa ng samahan o komunidad, at iba pa
- epektibong gamitin ang critical political economy at critical international political economy bilang mga lente sa pag-aaral ng kaunlaran at kahirapan upang maunawaan ang ugnayan ng ekonomya sa politika  at kultura ng lipunan, at ang interaksyon ng mga lokal at global na pwersa, at ang impluwensya ng mga ito sa mga mamamayan, komunidad at bansa
- hangarin ng Araling Pangkaunlaran na bumuo ng lipunang maunlad na nakabatay sa karapatang pantao at panlipunang hustisya

Salamat po ng marami...

Naging mabigat po sa loob ko at ng aking pamilya ang mga nakaraang araw. Pero dahil po sa malasakit, dasal at mensahe ng pakikiisa ninyo sa pamamagitan ng text at FB ay naging matatag kami. Makalipas po ng dalawang araw ay nailabas ng ICU ang aking tatay at makalipas muli ng dalawa pang araw ay nailabas na rin ng recovery room ng ospital. Ngayon po ay nagpapalakas na siya sa bahay. Maraming salamat po sa inyo. #powerhug #walanghanggangpasasalamatsamganagpatatagngloobnamin
