Abstract

Agricultural communities frequently encounter lack of support from various political actors. The local government units (LGUs) are responsible for initiating measures for improving community capitals towards fostering growth and development to mango farming communities. This descriptive qualitative study provides an understanding regarding the initiatives of the LGU in enhancing the community capitals in the Guimaras, Philippines mango farming community. The community capitals framework (CCF) served as a lens and guide. Semi-structured interview guides and participant observation are instrumental in data gathering from five key informants. Findings revealed that LGU provided various programs and initiatives to help enhancing the community capitals of the mango sector; thus, LGU as a political actor and development enabler has significant roles in fostering community development. Recommendations in this study are essential to the LGU further to enhance the community capitals of the mango farming sector. In gist, there is a crucial need to focus more on building social networks within the community, establish proper means for transporting the mango product, and strengthen community education on agriculture among the youth to be involved in the development of mango industry.

Abstract

The political engagement of individuals has complexly evolved in a borderless world brought by various developments in technology. This study revisits how various predictors, including personality traits such as extraversion and openness to experience, political efficacy, and online (FB) engagement, influence offline political engagements. Using quantitative techniques, the data gathered from a survey with 120 respondents in Cebu City, Philippines, was analyzed using the R software to generate descriptive statistics, correlation, simple linear regression, and multiple regression. A salient finding shows that the respondents’ level of extraversion, openness to experience, and political efficacy is high, while the level of political engagement is low online and offline. While online (FB) political engagement alone highly predicts offline political engagement behavior, all other independent variables (extraversion, openness to experience, and political efficacy) modeled as one attributes a very low effect towards offline political engagement. The model that includes all predictors have produced significant result that strongly supports this study’s central claim. Further, the study discussed the non-engagement of Cebuanos and commenced with suggestions on how Facebook (FB) can further influence an individual’s political engagements as a social media platform. While the publics’ engagements on political issues are vital to democratic societies, the study stressed social media's crucial influence on safeguarding democracies, human rights, and social justice.

Abstract

Major concerns centered on the governance of the working sector stems from issues and challenges confronted in the protection of workers’ rights and welfare. This case study discusses the challenges faced by the workers in the Guimaras mango industry and the role of the local government in addressing the gaps in the protection of the workers’ rights and welfare. Findings from the 35 key informant interview with the workers show that there are major gaps concerning workers’ rights and welfare that still needs to address despite the efforts of the government to provide the necessary program, projects, and legislation for the industry. The local government has pursued public services on agricultural support and mechanisms for addressing some of the needs of the mango producers and local legislations on mango production, harvesting, and consumption to protect them and the industry. Major workers’ rights and welfare concerns are mainly on hazardous and dangerous work practices, the undependability of the mango industry as a primary source of income, low wage, and the unstable contractual-hiring of mango workers during the mango season— all have to undermine just to meet the supply needed as demanded by the market. To infer, the workers are essential key players of the mango industry; thus, their rights and welfare need to be appropriately protected. In addressing social justice, fairness, and equality, local governments, humanitarian groups, and helping organizations are encouraged to center their agenda on advancing the rights, interests, and welfare of the sector.
