Nuova Prigione di Bilibid

La Nuova Prigione di Bilibid (in inglese: New Bilibid Prison o semplicemente NBP) è una struttura detentiva nelle Filippine di massima sicurezza, situata nella città di Muntinlupa, poco a sud di Manila. Principale carcere dell'arcipelago, è gestito dalla Bureau of Corrections (BoC), con la collaborazione del Dipartimento di Giustizia. Con una capienza regolamentare di circa 17 000 posti, al 2011 ospita oltre 36 000 carcerati o più del doppio consentito. L'area di detenzione è composta da tre campi: pene brevi, pene medie da cinque a vent'anni ed infine pene lunghe o "di massima sicurezza". Costruito nel 1940, il penitenziario si estendeva originariamente su una superficie di circa 551 ettari, ma nel 1991 quasi un quarto di essi sono stati devoluti ad un progetto di edilizia residenziale del Dipartimento di Giustizia. Benché noto come carcere di massima sicurezza, recentemente si è guadagnato una triste fama di "centro di traffico di stupefacenti", soprattutto durante gli anni del governo di Benigno Aquino III. Storia La Vecchia Prigione di Bilibid, allora nota come Carcel y Presidio Correccional, occupava un lotto di terreno rettangolare facente parte della Mayhalique Estate, nel centro di Manila. Tale edificio fu costruito dalle forze coloniali spagnole il 25 giugno 1865 su decreto reale. Era suddiviso in due campi: il Carcel, capace di ospitare 600 detenuti, ed il Presidio, con una capienza di 527 posti. Per via dell'aumento della criminalità, il governo filippino ordinò, attraverso il Commonwealth Act N. 67, la costruzione di un nuovo penitenziario che fosse distante dalla Vecchia Prigione. I lavori iniziarono nel 1936 con un budget di oltre un milione di pesos. Il nuovo carcere fu quindi edificato nella città di Muntinlupa, considerata allora sufficientemente lontana da Manila, su una superficie di circa 551 ettari. Nel 1940, i denenuti, le attrezzature e gli impianti furono trasferiti nella Nuova Prigione. I resti del vecchio penitenziario furono utilizzati dalla città di Manila come centro di detenzione locale, divenuto poi noto come Manila City Jail. Nel 1941 il nuovo penitenziario di Muntinlupa fu nominato ufficialmente Nuova Prigione di Bilibid.

Ninoy Aquino Stadium

The Ninoy Aquino Stadium is an indoor sporting arena located in the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex in Manila, Philippines. Originally built in the 1950s, it was renovated and renamed for Philippine senator Ninoy Aquino in 1989. History Ninoy Aquino Stadium was originally built in the 1950s as an open-air stadium, in time for the 1954 Asian Games. By the 1980s, it had been converted into an indoor arena named Rizal Multi-Purpose Arena, in time for the 1989 ABC Under-18 Championships, which opened on January 24, 1989. At the opening of the tournament, it was renamed Ninoy Aquino Stadium and a marker dedicating the arena was unveiled. The renovation included new chairs and a new scoring system from South Korea installed by Korean technicians. It also hosted the volleyball tournament of the 1991 Southeast Asian Games, the table tennis competitions of the 2005 Southeast Asian Games and the 2013 FIBA Asia Championship as the second venue of the tournament. It has also hosted college basketball games (UAAP, NCAA, NCRAA and the NAASCU), taekwondo tournaments, the two editions of the BSCP National Pool Championships and was an alternate venue of PBA games. It was also the home court of the Manila Metrostars in the now defunct Metropolitan Basketball Association. The Ninoy Aquino Stadium was renovated for the 2019 Southeast Asian Games to host the taekwondo and weightlifting competitions. New seats and a new air-conditioning system were installed in the arena with the plans for the facility to become "high-tech" or up to par with modern standards. Both the NCAA and the UAAP expressed interest to hold their games in the arena again. The renovation of the facility was completed on November 13, 2019, with the send-off ceremony for the Philippine team in preparation for the games held at the arena. The facility was temporarily used as an refurbished as a quarantine and isolation center in April 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. The wooden flooring used at the Mall of Asia Arena for the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup was donated to the Ninoy Aquino Stadium after the event.

Central Mindanao Airport

Central Mindanao Airport, formerly North Cotabato Rural Airport and also known as the M'lang Airport, is an airport serving the general area of M'lang, located in the province of Cotabato in the Philippines. It is the only inland airport of Mindanao with capability for commercial flights. It occupies 62 hectares (150 acres) of lands with a 1.2 kilometres (3,900 ft)-long concrete runway and a terminal building. The airport is primarily intended to support the transport of agricultural produce from the central part of Mindanao. History The Central Mindanao Airport was conceptualized by the Cotabato provincial government under then-Governor Emmanuel Piñol. In 2001, the national government appropriated for its funding of P2.895 million has been included in the national budget of the Philippines for fiscal year 2001. The Cotabato provincial government acquired the 62 hectares (150 acres) of land in Barangay Tawantawan in 2003 from the heirs of Don Tomas Buenaflor for the airport project. The acquisition of the site was supported by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, Senators John Osmeña and Richard Gordon, and Congressmen Bernardo Piñol Jr., Jesus Sacdalan and Nancy Catamco. Construction of the airport began in 2004. The construction of the airport's terminal building was completed under the administration of then-Governor Jesus Sacdalan with then-President Arroyo leading the inauguration rites of the facility in November 2009. However the airport's opening was mothballed during the administration of Sacdalan's successor Emmylou Mendoza, who cites the inability to transfer the airport to the Department of Transportation due to missing documents. The airport was used for the first time in February 2016, when the provincial government of Cotabato secured consent from the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) to use the airport as a hub for a province-wide cloud seeding program to avert a drought. Governor Catamco who became governor of Cotabato in 2019, asked for the intervention of President Rodrigo Duterte regarding the status of the Central Mindanao Airport. Duterte publicly expressed desire to make the airport operational and instructed Senator and close aide Bong Go to oversee the process, after the head of state was briefed on the airport's status during his visit in M'lang following in earthquake. Cost Some P430 million was allocated for the construction of the airport. Upgrading In April 2024 seven airports across Mindanao were designated to receive P1.3 billion for new infrastructure development as part of the 2024 General Appropriations Law. Of this, P300 million was earmarked for Central Mindanao airport. See also List of airports in the Philippines Notes References

Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Gracia (Macati)

La Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Gracia es una iglesia católica de estilo barroco situada en una de las más antiguas parroquias de la ciudad de Macati, en Filipinas. La iglesia parroquial y su monasterio adyacente actualmente son administrados por los frailes agustinos de la Provincia de Santo Niño de Cebú. Está cerca de la Capilla conmemorativa Loyola, el complejo Laperal, y el Seminario Menor Guadalupe. Descripción La iglesia es una mezcla de arquitecturas diferentes, debido en parte al hecho de que tuvo que ser parcialmente reconstruida y restaurada en 1882, una vez después de un terremoto, y de nuevo en 1894.​ En el Capítulo celebrado el 30 de noviembre de 1603, la patrona, Nuestra Señora de Gracia fue cambiada por Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe a raíz del pedido de varios devotos y religiosos de honrar la memoria de la Virgen María venerada en Extremadura, España. Posteriormente se trajo desde España una réplica de madera de la estatua. En 1632, la devoción se había extendido debido al comercio de galeones entre Manila y Acapulco. Devotos de España y México subieron al santuario de Guadalupe para presentar sus respetos a la Virgen. Se convirtió en una cortesía tan habitual que las autoridades se vieron obligadas a levantar un muelle de desembarco al pie de la colina junto al río. Para acoger a los peregrinos, que a su vez nunca dejaron de donar dinero, se construyó una casa de madera y una escalera de piedra de unos cien escalones. Juan de Montes de Oca, quien fue elegido Prior Administrador de Guadalupe, inició la construcción de un santuario de piedra. Juan de Montes de Oca es pariente del líder de la Revolución Filipino-Mexicana contra España Isidoro Montes de Oca, el estandarte de batalla de la cual también era Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe de México, la misma patrona titular de la actual iglesia en Makati. La iglesia es uno de los lugares para bodas más populares del área de la gran Manila.​ Véase también Iglesia católica en Filipinas Catedral Basílica Referencias

Zhongzhou Reef

Zhongzhou Reef (also known as Ban Than Reef among other variants) (Chinese: 中洲礁; Chinese: 中洲礁; pinyin: Zhōngzhōu Jiāo; Filipino: Bahura ng Silangang Ligaw; Vietnamese: Bãi Bàn Than) is a small coral reef on the north edge of the Tizard Bank in the Spratly Islands, South China Sea under administration by the Republic of China (Taiwan). It lies 4.6 km (2.9 mi) east of Taiwan-administered Taiping Island (Itu Aba), 7.2 km (4.5 mi) west of Vietnam-administered Sand Cay, and has an exposed area of approximately 0.2 hectares (0.49 acres) during high tide, and 0.6 hectares (1.5 acres) during low tide. It consists of an accumulation of seashells, sand, coral reefs and debris which forms a circular coral reef plate, surrounding the reef under the water, with a diameter of approximately 1.3 km (0.8 mi). The reef is also claimed by the People's Republic of China, the Philippines, and Vietnam. As many as 51 species of migratory birds inhabit the reef for short stays. The surrounding waters contain a rich marine ecosystem with plentiful staghorn coral. Shellfish species such as Harpago chiragra and Cassis cornuta can be found on the reef, and the surrounding waters contain various common tropical fish and coral reef fish. The reef geology is not suitable for plant growth. The reef has no groundwater source. Though currently uninhabited by humans, the Taiwanese Coast Guard sends regular patrols via M8 speedboats from nearby Taiping Island. These patrols circle the reef, in addition to landing, making inspections and carrying out ecological surveys. Recent history The reef was included within the area claimed by China in 1935, and this claim was reiterated in a map published in 1947. Scientists from Taiwan conducted ecological research on green turtles living on the reef from 2002 to 2003. On 16 August 2003, the Taiwanese Minister of the Interior Yu Cheng-hsien visited the reef, travelling via M8 speedboat, and planted a Taiwanese flag in a declaration of sovereignty. On 28 March 2004, the Taiwanese Coast Guard Administration completed the construction of wooden observation kiosks on the reef. In September 2010, the ROC Environmental Protection Agency conducted environmental quality sampling intending on monitoring reef marine water quality. On 22 March 2012, a routine patrol of the Taiwanese Coast Guard came into contact with Vietnamese patrol boats near the reef; following the incident, Taiwanese legislators Lin Yu-fang, Chen Zhenxiang and Chen Zhankai visited the reef by M8 speedboats. In April 2026, the minister of Taiwan's Ocean Affairs Council, Kuan Bi-ling, visited Taiping Island and Zhongzhou Reef to observe a Taiwanese coast guard exercise. The visit to Zhongzhou Reef involved a beach cleanup.

Récif Zhongzhou

Le récif Zhongzhou, aussi connu sous les noms de récif Ban Than et Centre Cay (Chinois traditionnel: 中洲礁; pinyin: Zhōngzhōu jiāo; vietnamien : Bãi Bàn Than) est une petite barrière de corail sur le bord nord du banc Tizard au sein des îles Spratley, dans la mer de Chine méridionale. Il est situé à 4,6 km à l'est de l'île de Itu Aba occupé par Taïwan, à 7,2 km à l'ouest de Sand Cay revendiqué par le Viet Nam, et couvre une superficie d'environ 0,2 hectare à marée haute, et 0,6 hectare à marée basse. Il consiste en une accumulation de coquillages, de sable, de récifs de corail et de débris qui forme une plaque de récifs de corail circulaire, entourant le corail sous l'eau d'un diamètre d'environ 1,3 km. Actuellement revendiqué par Taïwan (ROC). Cependant, la Chine, le Vietnam et les Philippines réclament également leur souveraineté sur ce récif. De nombreuses espèces d'oiseaux migrateurs nichent sur le récif pour de courts séjours. Les eaux environnantes abritent un riche écosystème marin composé non seulement d'une abondance de coraux fougère corne de cerf, mais aussi de poissons tropicaux demeurant dans les récifs coralliens. Il est également possible d'apercevoir des espèces de crustacés telles que Harpago chiragra et Cassis cornuta. La géologie du récif n'est pas adaptée pour le développement de la flore. Le récif n'a pas de source d'eau souterraine. Bien qu'il soit actuellement inhabité, les garde côtes taïwanais patrouillent régulièrement la zone via des hors-bords M8 à proximité de l'île de Itu Aba. En plus d'un débarquement, ces patrouilles encerclent le récif en effectuant des inspections et en réalisant des études écologiques. Histoire récente Le récif a été inclus dans la zone revendiquée par la Chine Nationaliste en 1935, et cette revendication a été réitérée dans une carte publiée en 1947. Le 16 août 2003, le Ministre de l'Intérieur taïwanais Yu Cheng-hsien a visité le récif, en voyageant sur un hors-bord M8, et a planté un drapeau taïwanais dans une déclaration de souveraineté. Le 28 mars 2004, la Garde côtière de Taïwan a achevé la construction sur le récif de postes d'observation en bois. En septembre 2010, l'Agence de protection de l'environnement taïwanaise a mené une étude de qualité de l'environnement dont l'objectif est d'évaluer la qualité de l'eau de mer du récif. Le 22 mars 2012, une patrouille de routine des garde-côtes taïwanais est entré en collision avec des bateaux de patrouilles vietnamiens près du récif. À la suite de l'incident, les législateurs Lin Yu-fang, Chen Zhenxiang et Chen Zhankai ont inspecté le récif en hors-bord.
