Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines

De Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (afgekort: CAAP) is het agentschap van het Filipijnse Ministerie van Transport en Communicatie dat verantwoordelijk is voor het implementeren van beleid op het terrein van de burgerluchtvaart in de Filipijnen en bovendien onderzoek doet naar incidenten in de burgerluchtvaart in dat land. Geschiedenis Op 31 maart 2010 kwamen de Filipijnse luchtvaartmaatschappijen en CAAP negatief in het nieuws toen de Europese Unie alle Filipijnse luchtvaartmaatschappijen op de zwarte lijst zette. De maatregel werd uit voorzorg genomen en was gebaseerd op de beslissing van de Amerikaanse luchtvaartautoriteit FAA, die de beoordeling van de Filipijnse veiligheidssituatie eerder al had omlaaggebracht naar categorie 2. Ook de Internationale luchtvaartorganisatie ICAO had al eerder haar zorgen geuit over de veiligheidsinspecties in de Filipijnen. Hoewel geen van de Filipijnse maatschappijen direct getroffen werd, omdat ze geen van alle op Europese luchthavens vliegen, bleek de maatregel wel van grote invloed op het aantal Europese toeristen. Veel Europese reisorganisaties uit met name Duitsland, Frankrijk en Engeland, annuleerden direct na het ingaan van de maatregel hun georganiseerde reizen in het land, omdat deze gebruikmaken van binnenlandse vluchten. De directeur van CAAP verklaarde dat de veiligheid van de Filipijnse luchtvaart niet in het geding is. De oplossing zou liggen het aanpassen van de auditregels zodat ze aan de internationale standaarden voldoen. Daarnaast kondigde hij een grootschalige reorganisatie van CAAP aan, waarbij alle 170 consultants ontslag aangezegd kregen. In 2013 werd Philippine Airlines (PAL) weer toegelaten in Europa. Een jaar later volgde Cebu Pacific. Na een inspectie door de luchtvaartexperts van de EU werden in juni 2015 ook het restant van de Filipijnse luchtvaartmaatschappijen van de zwarte lijst gehaald.

Concordia College (Manila)

The College of the Immaculate Conception of Concordia (Spanish: Colegio de la Inmaculada Concepcion de la Concordia), commonly known as Concordia College, is a private Catholic basic and higher education institution run by Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul in Paco, Manila, in the Philippines. The college was founded in 1868. History The Colegio de la Inmaculada Concepcion de la Concordia was established by Margarita Roxas from the Zóbel de Ayala family who converted her three-and-a-half-hectare villa, the La Concordia Estate in Paco, Manila, into a girls' school. She requested eight nuns from the Daughters of Charity from Spain to come to the Philippines to administer the school. They arrived on May 3, 1868, and operated the free school or Escuela Pia. Sixty students enrolled and were taught religion, good manners, reading and writing, simple arithmetic, culture, and arts like sewing, embroidery, cooking, needlecraft and household work. The medium of instruction was Spanish. The existing structure was expanded. By the early 1900s, five sixth of the Concordia complex was added since 1868. It also became the headquarters of the Daughters of Charity in the Philippines. The school building was damaged during the 1945 Battle of Manila of World War II. The Concordia College's higher education department began admitting male students in 1985 becoming co-educational.

Huayang Jiao

Huayang Jiao (chinesisch 华阳礁, Pinyin Huáyáng Jiāo oder auch Cuarteron Reef; vietnamesisch: đá Châu Viên; philippinisch Calderon Reef) ist ein Riff am östlichen Ende der Kette der vier London Reefs (Yinqing Qunjiao, chinesisch 尹庆群礁) der Nansha-Inseln im Südchinesischen Meer, das seit 1988 von der Volksrepublik China kontrolliert wird. Huayang Jiao wird von der Volksrepublik China als Teil der Stadt Sansha seiner Provinz Hainan verwaltet, die Philippinen, Vietnam und die Republik China erheben im Rahmen der Territorialkonflikte im Südchinesischen Meer Anspruch auf die Insel. Huayang Jiao ist in ost-westlicher Richtung 5,4 km lang und maximal 1,4 km breit. Außer ein paar Felsen im Norden, die bei Flut 1,2 bis 1,5 m aus dem Wasser ragen, fällt das Atoll nur bei Ebbe trocken. Im März 2014 begannen umfangreiche Landgewinnungsmaßnahmen. Inzwischen ist eine Insel mit einer Fläche von etwa 0,25 km² aufgeschüttet worden, die damit – nach Yongshu Jiao – die zweitgrößte der von der VR China kontrollierten Nansha-Inseln ist. Es gibt Kai-Anlagen sowie einige Aufbauten (Pfahlbauten) der chinesischen Marine, die ständig besetzt und mit Luftabwehrgeschützen und Artillerie bewaffnet sind. Darüber hinaus gibt es umfangreiche Suchradar- und Funkanlagen. Siehe auch Liste der Territorialstreitigkeiten Weblinks Einzelnachweise
Cuarteron Reef

Cuarteron Reef, also known as Calderon Reef (Mandarin Chinese: 華陽礁/华阳礁; pinyin: Huáyáng Jiāo; Filipino: Bahura ng Calderon; Vietnamese: Đá Châu Viên; Malay: Terumbu Kalderon), is a reef at the east end of the London Reefs in the Spratly Islands of the South China Sea. It is administrated and controlled by China (PRC) (as part of Sansha), and also claimed by the Philippines (as part of Kalayaan), by Vietnam (as part of Truong Sa) and Taiwan (ROC). The reef is 3 nautical miles (5.6 km; 3.5 mi) long and has an area of 8 square kilometres (3.1 sq mi) (800 hectares (2,000 acres)). Geographical features On 12 July 2016, the tribunal of the Permanent Court of Arbitration concluded that Cuarteron Reef contains, within the meaning of Article 121(1) of the Convention, naturally formed areas of land, surrounded by water, which are above water at high tide. However, for purposes of Article 121(3) of the convention, the high-tide features at Cuarteron Reef is rocks that cannot sustain human habitation or economic life of their own and accordingly shall be entitled to 12nmi of territorial sea measured from its baseline but have no exclusive economic zone or continental shelf. Chinese construction projects Prior to 2016, Cuarteron reef had a supply platform and a reef fortress. In 2015 the Philippine government released what it claimed were photos of a six-story facility being built by the Chinese government on the reef. Also in 2015, China completed the construction of a 50 metres (160 ft) high lighthouse on the reef. By late 2015, China had expanded the reef's usable area to 23 hectares (57 acres), reportedly including in the process two helicopter pads, and possibly gun, radar and missile emplacements. As of 2016, China was reportedly building a high-power radar installation on the reef. In late 2016, photographs emerged which suggested that Cuarteron Reef has been armed with anti-aircraft weapons and a CIWS missile-defence system.

Danajon Islet

Danajon Islet, also known as Dawahon Islet, is an islet in the Philippines located at the easternmost end of the Danajon Bank. The islet is coterminous with Barangay Dawahon, which is under the jurisdiction of the municipality of Bato in the province of Leyte. The islet is only 5 hectares (12 acres) and has a population of about 3,230 as of the 2020 census. The islet is only 3 meters (9.8 feet) above sea level, but the Danajon Bank protects it somewhat. Overview There is an elementary school, a church, two basketball courts, one small road, and a government medical clinic. The high school students are sent to Hingotanan Island, 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) away by boat. There is a weekly ferry service from this islet to the mainland town of Bato, Leyte, which is 24 kilometres (15 mi) away. Other nearby islands include Bilanglangan Island, Gaus Island, and the Caubyan Islets, which are 27 miles (43 km) to the east. The islet takes its name from the Danajon Bank, the Philippines' only double barrier reef and one of only 6 documented double barrier reefs in the world. A very rare geological formation, it comprises two sets of large coral reefs that formed offshore on a submarine ridge due to a combination of favorable tidal currents and coral growth in the area. Danajon Bank is home to a vast array of commercially valuable reef fishes, shellfish, crustaceans, and invertebrates such as sea cucumbers and sea urchins. Its extensive seagrass beds are nursery and feeding grounds for various species of rabbitfish (siganids) and seahorses, while its mangroves are spawning habitats for crustaceans, shrimp, and various fish. Aquaculture The main and only cash crop for the locals living on the islet is guso (Eucheuma cottonii) which is a seaweed, which is grown in the shallow waters of the Danajon Bank, upon which the islet sits. There are two large 1,000 foot bamboo docks for the drying of the guso before it is sold. The guso is either sold in Cebu or Cagayan de Oro, after it is transported there.
