edit

Version 1:

The Battle of Agusan Hill occurred on May 14, 1900 in in Agusan village,[1] in Cagayan.[2] United States Capt. Walter Eliot and 80 men[1] of the 40th United States Regiment[2] surprised 500 revolutionaries,[1] under Capt. Vicente Roa,[2] in a hill[1] in the east.[2] An encounter occurred;[2] more than 30 soldiers, including Roa, were killed.[1][2] Their rifles and ammunition were captured for the loss of two Americans.[1]


NOTES:

  • 35 soldiers were killed.[2]
  • 39 were killed.[1]

Gen. Nicolas Capistrano, leader of the Cagayan de Misamis revolutionaries, waged a war against the Americans in 1900–1901.[2] On April 7, 1900, together with Bukidnon lumads and Moros,[2] he led a surprise attack in the town,[1][2] but failed with 52 dead, as well as four Americans.[1]

On June 4, Col. Apolinar Velez, fortified the Makahambus Hill,[1] led the revolutionaries[1][2] in the west[2] in attacking Capt. Thomas Millar's company.[1] They succeeded in the battle[2] with only a Filipino revolutionary and nine American soldiers killed.[1][2] They captured a prisoner and rifles.[1]


Version 2:

The Battle of Agusan Hill occurred on May 14, 1900, in Cagayan de Misamis,[3] (or Cagayan),[4] Philippine Islands, when the revolutionaries from the First Company of the Mindanao Battalion led by[4] their commander,[3] Capt. Vicente Roa, were attacked[3] by the 40th Regiment U. S. Volunteer Infantry[4] under Col. Walter B. Elliot[3] at their positions [3] on Agusan Hills.[4] The Filipinos were defeated[3] in the encounter[4] suffering deaths of more than 30 soldiers,[4][3] including Roa.[3][4] This was their second defeat by the Filipinos in the municipality following the Battle of Cagayan de Misamis.[3]


1st Company[3]
NOTES:

  • 34 soldiers died.[4]
  • 38 dead.[3]


On May 14, 1900, the revolutionaries from the First Company of the Mindanao Battalion, led by Capt. Vicente Roa, encountered the 40th Regiment U. S. Volunteer Infantry on Agusan Hills in eastern Cagayan.[4]

Roa continued to fight as being told that all his men were killed, but he ran out of revolver's ammunition, and later fell—among 34 soldiers died. An American soldier looted one of his medals of honor.[4]

On May 14, 1900, the 1st Company of the US 40th Infantry Regiment under Col. Walter B. Elliot attacked the Filipino's positions, defeating the 1st Company, El Mindanao Battalon, suffering 38 deaths, including their commander, Capt. Vicente Roa y Racines.[3]






Version 3:

In the morning of May 4, 1900,[5][6] a team of armed soldiers, probably about 130 in number,[6] led by Capt. Vicente Racines Roa,[5][6] the commanding officer of the First Company of the Mindanao Battalion,[6] after doing patrol work along the eastern coast of Misamis,[5] arrived in Agusan[5][6] from Bukidnon.[6] Joining his fellow officers, they gathered in the house of Juan Bautista.[5]

The municipal captain (gobernadorcillo) at that time was Catalino Cuerquis, whom Roa told that the latter's team are going to fight the Americans which, in Cagayan, were armed and about 600 in number.[6]

Roa suggested to send a courier and dare the enemy to fight in Agusan at the same day. All quickly agreed. The officer discussed their plan of defense. Captain Roa was to lead his men occupying the first hill overlooking the main road of Agusan, Sgt. Uldarico Akut to lead another assigned in the next hill, while the Macheteros were to hide under the houses. However, on the last minute, Akut's team were told to move to another hill farther to guard the road leading to the Maitom Camp of Gen. Capistrano.[5]

In the morning, Fortunato Yacapin, a messenger, carried Roa's letter to the Americans. Yacapin, living in Agusan, learned Spanish at the school of Nicolas Capistrano. The American-officers, who were accompanied by Spanish volunteers, were Spanish-speaking as well.[6]

Fortunato called his subordinate, Vicente Agapay to take Roa's letter to the Americans. The letter was received in Lico-an where Americans took Vicente to Casa Real (now the City Hall complex), the governor's residence. Americans replied that they will go to Agusan.[6]

Later, the two companies of American soldiers came in Agusan[5][6] from Lico-an and going near Lapasan,[6] well-armed and had a battleship escort along Macajalar Bay.[5][6]

The Americans passed Gusa, at Capitan Agapito Yacapin's residence; Yacapin ran to Roa in Agusan.[6]

Americans reached the Cugman river, some of them went to the mountain and others to the sea. The bridge is also high that few enemies were stationed. Thus, Filipinos, unaware of the enemies, were surrounded.[6]

Roa shot immediately after seeing the enemies in the river of Gusa,[6] followed by his group firing at the Americans reaching the area, and they retreated as planned.[5] They were chased on top of the hill. However, the Macheteros failed to come out from the hiding places and attack the Americans, due to lack of leadership and cooperation.[5] The Americans in the seashore and the mountains fired at them.[6] Also, the battleship at the bay bombarded Agusan Hill.[5][6]

The macheteros (armed with machetes), arrived from Tagoloan, Bubuntugan and Jasaan, did not enter Agusan and ran instead.[6]

Roa's group fought on top of the hill without dugouts nor trenches, hiding behind the cogon grass and bushes. The enemy knew their location through the smoke of guns. They were able to shoot straight because the slopes of the hills were not that steep, however, they lacked ammunition.[6]

Roa's group fought continually until all his men were killed, leaving him severely wounded. Roa refused to surrender despite being surrounded by opponents. He ran out of bullets for his revolver and used his sword till his death.[5]

An American soldier got one of his medals of honor, which was kept as a memento.[5]

At the end of the battle, the soldiers of the first company of the Mindanao battalion, with their leader, Roa, died, with their bodies laid on top of the hill.[5]

Only Dionesio Abas, the bugler, was the sole survivor. He hides with the dead.[6]

In 1931, the remains of Roa's group were interred inside the monument in Divisoria, erected by a fellow revolutionary and then mayor Apolinar Velez, who named it the Cry of Freedom monument. Velez wrote only a simple dedication in Spanish in their memory: El pueblo a sus heroes — in English, From the town to its heroes.[6]

Background

edit

After the 1898 Philippine Revolution, and Spain ceding the archipelago to the United States, on March 30, 1900, Cagayan de Misamis was occupied by the American forces,[7] whose presence caused hostilities among the local residents of the town;[8] three battles followed.[7]

On April 7, revolutionaries/guerilla forces led by Gen. Nicolas Capistrano lost in a battle[8] when they raided the American barracks in the present-day Gaston Park. Capistrano and his men eventually retreated.[7]

Battle

edit

Capt. Vicente Roa y Racines, commanding officer, First Company, Mindanao Battalion, with other officers held a meeting in Juan Bautista's residence. They agreed to send a courier to dare the Americans for an open battle in Agusan, a village about 16 kilometers east of the town.[8]

Capt. Walter B. Elliott, the Commanding Officer of "I" Company, 40th Infantry Regiment of US Army Volunteers answered the challenge.[8]

Capt. Roa prepared with his troops of about 500; having 200 rifles and some shotguns.[8]

It was initially planned that the infantry and the cavalry would occupy two hills overlooking a main road to ambush the opponents; the macheteros, armed with bolos and hidden in the houses, would finish them off from behind. The start would be signaled with a bugle sound and three gunshots.[8]

Captain Elliott's company of about 80 men was reinforced with their superior weapons and supported by the warship at Macajalar Bay.[8]

On May 14, 1900, while the company of Capt. Elliott was approaching to its objective, Gen. Capistrano gave last minute order to the cavalry under Sgt. Uldarico Akut to move farther away from the main force, gurarding a road leading to Maitum where Capistrano was based. This significantly affected the frontlines of Roa's troops.[8]

When the enemies were sighted by the Filipino guerillas, a bugler and Capt. Roa signaled his men of the start of the the battle. Being disheartened, some of the macheteros, did not participate while others fled. Overmatched troops continued to fight. As they were to be overpowered, Capt. Roa's rifle and revolver bothe ran out of ammunition and later fought with his sword until he was killed. Capt. Roa was beheaded; his medals were taken off by an American soldier.[8]

Casualties

edit

Different statements:

  • The Filipino warriors were defeated with 38 guerillas, including Roa, killed, and 35 rifles captured. American soldiers only suffered 2 dead and 3 wounded.[8]
  • According to the Historical and Cultural Commission (Hisccom) of Cagayan de Oro, the city hall listed 46 members, including Roa, killed in the raid, mostly held the rank of private; a dozen of them macheteros who all fought under the group.[7]

Aftermath

edit

On June 4, Filipino revolutionaries under the then-major Apolinar Velez won in the Battle of Makahambus Hill, when the advancing American soldiers, trying to negotiate the surrender of the group, were forced to retreat. Many Americans died in the offensives in the Filipinos' first victory since the Philippine–American War began in 1899.[7]

It was said that there were indigenous people from Bukidnon who joined in these battles.[7]

Following the battle, the Americans sent the troops from Zamboanga to Cagayan de Misamis as an augmentation force. The guerillas later abandoned their stronghold in Macahambus because of attacks by the US forces.[9]

With the American forces winning most of the battles, and the surrender of key officials, the First Philippine Republic eventually fell in 1901. At that time, the deaths of Gen. Capistrano's troops led him, along with Akut, to surrender in Cagayan de Misamis, as well as other Filipino officers in Sumilao. On July 4, 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt granted general amnesty and pardon to those who were involved in the war.[9]

Gen. Capistrano became an elected member of the Philippine Assembly in 1909, and a senator (1916–1919). Col. Velez became the governor of the then-undivided Misamis (1906–1909). Akut (1912–1916) and Velez (1928–1931) both served as mayor of Cagayan de Misamis.[9]

Accounts

edit

The Filipino resistance to the American occupation in Misamis was narrated in a manuscript by Filomeno Bautista Sr., the former Academic Supervisor of Surigao, Bukidnon, and Misamis, published in 1939.[10]

A 1968 interview of Fortunato Yacapin, an eyewitness to the battle, was included by Catholic priest Francisco Demetrio in his book The Village: The Story of Early Cagayan de Oro.[11]

Battle (2)

edit

On May 14, 1900, two companies of armed American soldiers[11] staged an offensive[7] against the 1st Company of the Mindanao Battalion, under Capt. Vicente Roa y Racines,[11] positioning[7] in a hill[11] in the village[7] of Agusan. During the fighting, the American battleship bombarded the Filipinos from the bay. Being outnumbered, the Filipinos fought; majority of them were killed, was the last. An American snatched a medal from him, reportedly as a memento.[11]

It was said that there were indigenous people from Bukidnon who joined in this battle.[7]

Memorials

edit

In 1931,[8] as ordered by Velez,[7][11] one of the former resistance leaders[11] and then municipal mayor,[11][8] the municipal government of Cagayan de Misamis[8] exhumed the remains[7][11][8] of the killed revolutionaries—his former comrades-in-arms[11]—that were buried[8] in Agusan Hill,[11][8] which were later moved[7][8] and interred[11][8] in the monument[7][11] that served as a common grave in Plaza Divisoria[8] Velez had led the erection of the monument for them,[11] calling it the Cry of Freedom Monument,[11][8] where a statue of Andres Bonifacio was placed,[11][8] and with engraved words: El Pueblo a sus heroes ("from the town to its heroes").[8]


There are four monuments[11] in Plaza Divisoria in downtown Cagayan de Oro, the area serving as the burial place for those died while fighting the Americans.[7]

One of these, the second to be erected,[11] is solely dedicated to the killed freedom fighters.[7] It only have features including a small door in its back,[11] leading to a chamber where the remains were interred.[7] The marker only have a brief dedication in Spanish inscribed: A pueblo a sus héroes—in English, "[From] the town to its heroes".[11][7]

Its design is almost similar to the first monument of hero Andres Bonifacio, Grito de Balintawak in Quezon City; and despite the absence of Bonifacio's name, for decades,[11] it had been mistakenly identified being built in his honor,[7] being called Bonifacio and Balintawak.[11]


The Hisccom said the bones belonged to resistance fighters died in the Battle of Agusan Hill. Dr. Antonio Montalván II, an anthropologist and ethnohistorian, however disputed the claim, saying that the monument contains the bones which are "rather unaccounted for as to where they come from," that the idea that the bones belonged to those from the Agusan battle was based on a legend, and that some remains of those who died in two other battles might be included. The accounts in the United States' archives were said gave estimates on the deaths.[7]

The National Historical Commission of the Philippines installed markers acknowledging the three battles. A street in Cagayan de Oro is named after Roa.[7]

There have been proposals in the House of Representatives to declare Filipinos who led the revolution against Spanish and American colonial rule in Mindanao as national heroes, which include Roa, along with Nicolas Capistrano, Apolinar Velez, and Apolinario Pabayo, from the present-day Misamis Oriental. In 2013, brothers Cagayan de Oro 2nd District representative Rufus Rodriguez and Abante Mindanao party-list representative Maximo Rodriguez authored House Bill No. 2508; they cited the urgency of correcting the injustice inflicted on people in the island whose sacrifices went unnoticed in the country's history.[12] In 2022, Rufus Rodriguez filed House Bill No. 1461.[13]


Filipino resistance to the Americans in Misamis began with the bombardment of Cagayan by the American ships and the landing of the American troops; followed by the organization of a Filipino resistance army at Gango under Nicolas Capistrano. A battle occurred in Cagayan, while the Filipino headquarters in Tanculan was removed. Another battle occurred in Macahambus Hill, Filipino troops at Sumilao later surrendered.

On May 14, 1900, in the Battle of Agusan Hill, Capt. Vicente Roa led the Cagayan revolutionaries in the east in an encounter with the 40th Regiment, U.S. Volunteer lnfantry. With all his men killed, Capt. Roa continued on fighting with his revolver until he ran out of ammunition and he also fell. An American soldier snatched one of his medals of honor. Roa, together with 34 soldiers of the First Company of the Mindanao Battalion, were killed.

On April 7, revolutionaries led by Gen. Nicolas Capistrano, raided the American barracks in the Battle of Cagayan de Misamis, which was occurred in the present-day Gaston Park. The forces, however, were outmatched. Capistrano, seeing defeat, ordered his men to retreat.

The monument, similar to that of hero Andres Bonifacio, had been mistakenly identified being built in his honor.

It is said that Velez, one of the resistance leaders and then municipal president, ordered the remains of the heroes—his former comrades-in-arms—be exhumed and moved to the monument. There is a small door in the back of the monument, leading to a chamber where the remains were interred.

The Hisccom said the bones belonged to resistance fighters died in the Battle of Agusan Hill.

Misamis

edit

Article: Misamis (province)
Status: PLANNING


On May 15, 1901, the United States Philippine Commission enacted Act No. 128, establishing the province of Misamis with Cagayan as its capital.[19]

In 1903, through Act No. 579, the local civil government for the non-Christian tribes other than Moros was established.[20] Later that year, by virtue of Act No. 787, the territory was reduced as part of the province, along with that of Surigao, were transferred to the newly-organized Moro Province.[21] Then, by virtue of Act No. 951, the number of municipalities was reduced from 24 to 10.[22]

NOTE: Iligan was part of Misamis by 1902.[23]

The boundary between Misamis and provinces of Department of Mindanao and Sulu, which was established by Act No. 2711 of 1917, was later changed to present-day ones.[24] In 1921, through Act No. 2968, the northern parts of the special provinces of Bukidnon and Agusan were annexed into the province when the boundary line was adjusted.[25] In 1927, certain sitios in the territory segregated from Bukidnon were organized into four municipal districts (Claveria, Lourdes, Lumbia and Taglimao).[26] On the other hand, through Act No. 3354 of the same year, the first law for the division of Misamis, the portion of Zamboanga was annexed to the newly-created Occidental Misamis, provided that the Governor-General may order such of the affected territories of Zamboanga to the municipal district or districts or barrios belonging to the new province.[27]

Misamis was divided into the new provinces of what was then called Oriental Misamis and Occidental Misamis, with their boundaries established; since as early as 1927 by virtue of Act No. 3354,[27] which was repealed by Act No. 3537, approved in 1929 and eventually became effective at the beginning of 1930.[28]

  • Oriental Misamis consisted of the municipalities of: Balingasag, Cagayan (capital), Gingoog, Initao, Quinoguitan,[28] Salay, Tagoloan, and Talisayan, the island of Camiguin with its municipalities and adjacent small islands, and the municipal districts of Claveria and Lourdes.[27] With part of Act No. 3537 being amended by Act No. 3777 in 1930, the municipal district of Lumbia was included[29] instead of Napaliran.[27]
  • Occidental Misamis comprised the municipalities of Baliangao, Plaridel, Lopez Jaena,[28] Oroquieta, Aloran, Jimenez, Tudela, Clarin, and Misamis.[27] The capital of the province was to be designated by the majority of the local officials in a convention called by the provincial governor.[27][28]

Other stuff

  • Issue: WP:RS. Find a Grave (Link). (See: link at WP; link 2.)
  • Philippine Headline News Online can't be accessed? By January 29, 2023, during my editing sessions, the PHNO website can't be accessed and it only says either "Error 403–Forbidden" (main page) or "Error 404–Page not found" (specific page); such a surprising thing since it has been used for years. Now, i'm having a trouble visiting the website, as i consider this as a reliable source. The problem remains even after more than a week, so i suggest to visit PHNO through this link, thanks to Wayback Machine.
  • Old articles of the Associated Press can't be accessed? While i am glad to see that the AP News website was redesigned by around June 2023, it seems that old news articles can't be accessed and it only says "PAGE UNAVAILABLE"; another surprising one. For the past months, none of them had been restored; so i suggest for now to find articles from that source at old newspapers via Google News Archive and the likes.
  • All materials from CNN Philippines now a lost media?
Here's the story: Sources:
It was too fast. Three days.

 

NEWS YOU CAN TRUST

Royandoyan, Ramon (January 29, 2024). "CNN Philippines to stop broadcasting after 9-year run". Nikkei Asia. Japan. Retrieved January 31, 2024.

Agence France-Presse/nh (January 29, 2024). "CNN Philippines to close due to financial losses". CNA. Singapore. Retrieved January 31, 2024.
On Jan. 29, 2024, in another blow for the media industry in the Philippines, Nine Media Corporation, the parent company of CNN Philippines, announced its decision to stop the channel's broadcasts, as well to shut down news and production operations on all platforms from Jan. 31, due to financial losses. Throughout its existence, Nine Media suffered losses of 5-billion.

That ended its delivery of English language news to a democratic country, which began in March 2015 upon the start of its broadcast operations as a CNN franchise, mainly on free-to-air.

Result: Since late evening of January 31, 2024, its official website is now closed, with texts: "This website is unavailable"

Everyone is sad as it happened; yet more as even the channel's media platforms were neither to be maintained nor to be archived. Otro adios.
Following the news organization's closure, by the night of Jan. 31, contents from its website and social media channels were wiped off. Nearly all traces of these presence have been scrubbed; only snapshots of the site, archived on The Wayback Machine of The Internet Archive, remain.


“Sa huli, hindi lang kaming mga empleyado ang talo, kung hindi ang taumbayan.”

This is Round 2.
Wait for more. (Two more rounds of edits)

Millennials or Generation Z? Uncertain, under assessment.

YThis user is a member of
Millennials.
ZThis user is a member of
Generation Z.
Based on my observations through the articles:
  • Majority of the sources suggest that this user is a member of Millennials and not of Generation Z.
  • One-third to two-fifths of the sources suggest that this user is a member of Generation Z and not of Millennials.
  • Silent Gen: The Encyclopedia of Strategic Leadership and Management uses the range 1925–45.
  • Baby boomers: 1946–64 by various organizations: YouGov and Australia's Social Research Center. Author Landon Jones.
    • Canada: Doug Owram, 1946–62; culturally, everywhere, were born between the late war years and about 1955 or 1956.
    • France: French sociologist Michèle Delaunay, between 1946 and 1973, Spain: between 1958 and 1975.
    • French academic, Jean-François Sirinelli, between 1945 and 1969.
    • United Kingdom: Office for National Statistics, two baby booms in the middle of the 20th century, one in the years immediately after World War II and one around the 1960s.
    • Australia: Bernard Salt, between 1946 and 1961.
    • United States: can be segmented into two broadly defined cohorts: (1) the "leading-edge baby boomers" are individuals born between 1946 and 1955; (2) usually called "Generation Jones", but sometimes also called names like the "late boomers" or "trailing-edge baby boomers", was born between 1956 and 1964.
  • Gen X: 1965–80 as per: Bloomberg, Business Insider and Forbes. Between '65 and '80 as per: U.S. news outlets The New York Times and The Washington Post. Time magazine (roughly defined).
    • U.S. Social Security Administration, as between 1964 & 1979. United States Department of Defense, 1965–77.
    • Jeff Gordinier (2008) include those born between 1961 and 1977 but possibly as late as 1980.
    • George Masnick of the Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies, 1965–84 (in order to satisfy the premise that boomers, Xers, and millennials "cover equal 20-year age spans."
    • Based on external events of historical importance, Schewe and Noble (2002) argue that a cohort is formed against significant milestones and can be any length of time. Against this logic: 1966–76, with those born between 1955 & 1965 being labelled as "trailing-edge boomers".
  • Millennials:
    • Jonathan Rauch, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, wrote for The Economist in 2018 (Link) (1981–96 birth cohort is a "widely accepted" definition for millennials). Reuters also state the same.
    • (General) American Psychological Association, CBS and ABC Australia.
    • CNN reports that studies often use 1981–1996 to define millennials, but sometimes list 1980–2000. Sociologist Elwood Carlson, who calls the generation "New Boomers", identified the birth years of 1983–2001.

In the 1984 legislative elections, The Liberal Party split into two factions: one, led by former senator Jovito Salonga, who held the boycott; another, led by former senator Eva Estrada Kalaw, decided to participate.

The LP Salonga wing and PDP–Laban were became part of Laban ng Bayan in 1985 which was then allied with UNIDO to form a coalition, UNIDO–LABAN, in line with the 1986 presidential election. In 1987, then vice president Salvador Laurel headed a separate faction from UNIDO, which then composing the LP Kalaw wing, hence a faction with the Nacionalista Party (NP).

Meanwhile, KBL was divided into factions, including:

The 1980 local elections was the last to be held under the presidency of Ferdinand Marcos which was ended following the 1986 revolution; thereafter, the government under Corazon Aquino replaced local elective officials by appointed officers-in-charge (OICs).


Prior to the 1986 revolution, Kilusang Bagong Lipunan (KBL), led by then President Ferdinand Marcos, was the ruling party then. It dominated two-thirds of the Batasang Pambansa, as well almost monopolized local elective positions nationwide.

KBL, along with the opposition's United Nationalist Democratic Organization (UNIDO)–Laban ng Bayan coalition, mainly contested the 1986 special presidential election, with leftist forces under BAYAN held the boycott. Parties not aligned into these groups, the LP-Kalaw Wing and Social Democratic Party, unsuccessfully fielded their candidates.

With Marcos administration ended and as a result of the replacement of local elective officials by the government, KBL disintegrated rapidly, eventually reducing to a minor party. Its members remained, some either joined:

  • Partido Nacionalista ng Pilipinas (PNP), formed on March 15, composed of KBL reformists and led by Blas Ople.
  • NP–Cayetano Wing, proclaimed on August 19. Rafael Palmares, successor of the late former Senator Jose Roy as the leader of the NP–Roy Wing, had reorganized the Nacionalista Party with Renato Cayetano of KBL as the secretary general.

For the parties under the ruling coalition, UNIDO had difficulty maintaining strength; while PDP–Laban, in contrast, grew rapidly. The latter divided into two blocs, the progressives led by Aquilino Pimentel Jr., and the conservatives led by Jose Cojuangco Jr.

Lakas ng Bansa, a pro-Aquino movement, was launched on November 10. It eventually became a political party prior to the legislative elections of May 1987; recruited members later abandoned their membership in the former various parties. While some PDP–Laban members were transfered, Cojuangco remained as its chairman; Pimentel of the party's progressive bloc, as well as top officials of UNIDO, did not join the group. Same as the Liberal Party (LP)–Salonga Wing (Jovito Salonga) and National Union of Christian Democrats (NUCD) which were revitalized upon arrival of Raul Manglapus from exile and remained in relatively low profile despite increase of their strength.

The Mindanao Alliance, led by former Misamis Oriental governor Homobono Adaza, and Christian–Social Democratic Party (CSDP), led by Francisco Tatad, eventually left the ruling coalition to join the opposition, along with the LP–Kalaw Wing (Eva Kalaw).

Partido ng Bayan (PnB), a legal party of leftist forces, was proclaimed on August 30.

By the time of the February 1987 constitutional plebiscite, realignment of political parties reflected with their preferences during the campaign. For opposition parties, however, PNP, whose leaders were members of the Constitutional Commission, campaigned for the constitution, while PnB preferred the deferment of the ratification. Nevertheless, the constitution was ratified.

In the legislative elections on May 11, four major groups of political parties emerged:

  • Lakas ng Bayan (ruling coalition): Lakas ng Bansa, PDP–Laban, UNIDO, the LP–Salonga Wing, & NUCD; supported by BANDILA.
  • Grand Alliance for Democracy (GAD; opposition): NP–Cayetano Wing, PNP, Mindanao Alliance, the LP-Kalaw Wing, CSDP, a segment of KBL, & Muslim Federal Party.
  • Union for Peace and Progress–Kilusang Bagong Lipunan (UPP–KBL): composed mainly of those KBL members still closely identified with former President Marcos.
  • Alliance for New Politics: leftist forces, including PnB and BAYAN.

The ruling coalition won the majority of legislative seats; GAD won a few. The rest, including independents, composed those remaining in the lower house.

Shortly after a coup attempt in August, vice president Salvador Laurel, head of UNIDO, left Aquino and attempted to form an opposition group, leading to the revival of the old NP, the NP–Enrile Wing with Juan Ponce Enrile as its titular head, which was joined by former NP politicians who were under KBL, resulting to KBL only composed of Marcos loyalists. On the other hand, UNIDO, constituting the NP–Laurel Wing, opposed the move of Laurel and remained in the ruling coalition, leading to a reconciliation between Aquino and Laurel in December, at the beginning of the campaign period of the local elections.

As the local elections approached, other political parties tried to expand and to consolidate their organizations. The LP–Salonga Wing, which expanded most visibly as BANDILA joined with them, and UNIDO, fielded their candidates. Another two major parties under the ruling coalition, PDP–Laban headed by Cojuangco, and Lakas ng Bansa headed by Paul Aquino in acting capacity, formed a tactical alliance to field common candidates to be proclaimed by the president; PDP–Laban's Pimentel's bloc, however, did not follow such alliance.


Results show major victory among the ruling coalition, particularly Lakas ng Bansa and PDP–Laban, both had affiliated governorships increased while that of United Nationalist Democratic Organization otherwise; except for Ilocos and Cagayan Valley regions which were dominated by opposition and independent candidates. Fifty-four elected governors were from this coalition. On the other hand, the opposition, particularly KBL, had results remained insignificant.

In the 1988 local elections, a total of 150,000 candidates competed for 15,946 local seats that included provincial governorship, city and municipal mayoralty, and membership in the legislative assemblies in provincial, city and municipal levels; 80% of 20.5 million registered voters participated.

Political parties declared "open zones" in which members supported candidates, either independent or from another party. Commission on Elections (COMELEC) recorded that 60% of the seats were won by pro-administration candidates.

It was observed that the traditional nature of politics in the country was reinforced. Candidates with familiar names were elected in the urban areas, as voters in the rural areas supported their relatives and friends.

The alliance between the PDP–Laban and the Lakas ng Bansa produced a common ticket in 53 provinces. It preceded the Laban ng Demokratikong Pilipino which was organized later that year as a merger of those supporting the Aquino administration. Its membership in the lower house grew prior to the 1992 elections.

Contest in several areas was between LP and Lakas ng BansaPartido Demokratiko Pilipino Lakas ng Bayan coalition. Opposition parties Kilusang Bagong Lipunan and Nacionalista Party were unable to endorse candidates as most of their members are endorsed by the administration. The administration was led by presidential relatives: Lakas ng Bayan by Paul Aquino, her brother-in-law, and Emigdio Tanjuatco, her cousin; PDP–Laban by her brother Jose Cojuangco Jr. On the other hand, the LP, while most of its leaders and members had been adopted by other administration parties, regained its strength after the Marcos presidency; refusing to be part of common administration ticket, endorsed its own candidates.

The election saw for the first time movie stars, television personalities, and newsmen became interested to these positions.

The COMELEC reset that in Leyte to February 1. Tension built up in the province following the postponement and disqualification of a Lakas ng Bansa gubernatorial candidate.

Prior to the elections, the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the Integrated National Police were deputized to assist the COMELEC in election duties.

Since January 16, all military and police units had been on red alert in relation to the election. The AFP ordered all service commands in Metro Manila for possible attacks following reports of destabilization attempts to be launched by Marcos loyalists.

On election day, COMELEC deployed some 17,000 Citizens Military Training cadets for poll duties in all urban areas in the country, including some 6,500 in Metro Manila.

Running political dynasties were observed at least in Olongapo and in Cagayan where warlords were the candidates as well.

In Western Visayas, the Regional Unified Command reported 23 election-related incidents prior to the elections, with 9 deaths, 4 wounded, 3 missing. Most of which were in Capiz with 6 incidents and 3 deaths. The region, being the free zone, had many of the candidates were associated with former president Ferdinand Marcos. Meanwhile, New People's Army reportedly asked ₱10,000 for each candidate to permit them to campaign in NPA-controlled areas.

In Cagayan, among the candidates was gubernatorial candidate Rodolfo Aguinaldo, a former military intelligence officer and provincial commander who later resigned following the Aug. 27, 1987 coup attempt. No violent incidents were reported in the province. Vote buying was reported in Tuguegarao.

The COMELEC granted a one-day extension of the campaign.

The military allowed former Col. Rolando Abadilla to vote in his precinct in Batac, Ilocos Norte while being under military detention; but denied the request of Col. Orlando Dulay to vote in his hometown in Isabela as his detention was ordered by the Supreme Court.

In Ilocos Norte, there were no election-related violence amid intense rivalry. Soldiers were fielded on January 16.

There were reported shootings in Makati and Plaridel; bombings in Olongapo.[202]


The first local elections held after 7 years, as well under the new Constitution. The campaign started on December 1. Between 85%–90% of 27 million voters participated to elect 16,000 local officials.

Known political warlords formerly associated with the Marcos regime began to became part of the Corazon Aquino government since OIC appointments in 1986. They were among those endorsed by the administration in the 1988 elections. Marcos loyalist politicians were installed in the the legislature following the 1987 elections.

Results show that administration candidates were leading in majority of Metro Manila, as well as some politicians replaced in 1986, most were guest candidates of the PDPLPLakas ng Bansa ruling coalition. In Ilocos Norte, home province of former president Ferdinand Marcos, candidates identified with Marcos were leading in top provincial posts. Final official results from the provinces were expected until the following week.

The Commission on Elections, reacting to reports on cessation or postponement of counting of election returns in five Metro Manila suburbs, ordered all boards of canvassers a continuous count.

Poll-related incidents were reported nationwide, including vote buying, flying voters, harassment, terrorism, ballot switching, snatching of election paraphernalia, absence of polling booths, disobedience of assigned teachers, and even the low-quality indelible ink, as well as "open balloting" especially in Western Visayas. There were reports also of presence of armed men, shooting, and ballot stuffing, as well as missing ballot boxes, electioneering, and barring of poll watchers, in some precincts in Metro Manila.

COMELEC received protests prior to the end of voting time at 4 p.m. During the campaign period, COMELEC received a total of 14 complaints against local candidates, which included overspending and oversized billboards, while 20 others were dismissed.

In Quezon and Leyte, voting continued in a number of remote barangays despite the postponement, whose order came late. The COMELEC postponed the elections in Leyte to Feb. 1, with political tensions and rebel activities as reasons. It was questioned by residents and the Liberal Party, citing normal peace and order situation. Meanwhile, the COMELEC decided to move the elections in Quezon from Feb. 8 to Jan. 25 upon the request of the political parties and candidates.

Nineteen more were killed a day before and on the election day; most incidents were perpetrated by communist rebels.

Two incidents occurred during political rallies of PDP–Laban gubernatorial candidates. In Labo, Camarines Norte, OIC governor Roy Padilla was shot. In Muñoz, Nueva Ecija, 29, including a candidate for provincial board member, were wounded in a grenade explosion while OIC governor Noli Santos escaped unhurt.

On election day, AFP revealed through military intelligence documents that some 157 candidates were supported by the CPP–NPA. Its CAPCOM (Capital Regional Command) received reports on eight election related incidents in Metro Manila. Nevertheless, The PC-INP stated that the elections were generally peaceful.

Some 10,000 voters in three barangays in Quezon City were reportedly casted ballots in an open space.

Peaceful election was observed in San Juan. There were apprehensions in Pampanga and Tarlac due to firearms ban.

Makati were among those placed under COMELEC control.[203]
