John, in the future if things get tight concerning funding for education, do not hesitate to contact me, giving me full information and proposal. I may say no, but I might say yes. Before that, you should get your mother to sell that house in Dagupan, but she probably will not. The place has never been repaired I guess, knowing the Bautistas. I saw it last year on Google Earth and it did not look to be in too good a shape. I would be interested to know about Eding, Lanie's grandfather. I was very fond of him. I guess he died long ago. You take after your mother's father. You look a lot like him. He was a strong man and worked hard going to his fish nets twice a day. He would get only a couple of kilos of fish but that was enough to buy rice and necessities. He drank only a little. Tanduay rum mostly. I can't remember seeing him smoking. He died at 49 though. He married Anit when she was fifteen. I heard he had a child with another woman in a near-by village.I liked him a lot. He died very young. Eding, his father, used to go off to the mud flats with a length of hooked wire every day and he would bring back a half dozen crabs (alama). That was enough for him and his second wife to live on. You get your interest in oceanography, because of your mother's ancestry. They have been catching a few fish and living on oysters (talaba) for centuries, maybe thousands of years. Your mother would take a canoe with another girl or two and they would paddle across the Dawal river and open up oysters and eat them raw. This can be dangerous as you can get shellfish poisoning. When I selected Lanie from the girls in the Baguio market, she was among the prettiest. I thought she was a bit dumb, but I was wrong. She was as sharp as nails. I loved your mother very much, but I played around. I thought I could get away with it. I met a girl once in Luneta Park, She was so beautiful. She came with me back to my hotel . I was returning to Japan that day. Sometimes this girl comes into my mind even now. I worry that she got pregnant to me and that I had not given her enough money... too late now. When I went back to the Philippines to get Brian, I met another girl in the Baguio market. Her name was Milit or Carmelita. I was unlucky enough to fall in love with her, and I knew I could never bring her back to Canada. I paid for her college that year and money to live on when i left. (she was training to be a teacher.) So she benefitted from our brief union of three months. Then I had to concentrate on getting Brian here. One night in Angeles, Balibago, I got rotten drunk on whiskey at the American Legion Club. According to Brian who was only five and with me, I got drunk, drank most of the bottle and starting fighting and swearing and was finally evicted. I don't have much memory of this. I woke up next day in the cheap room we rented, lying on carton. Brian said he brought me home in a jitney. He even kept the near-empty whiskey bottle . I decided then I would never get drunk again and I have not. He was a good little boy. Very smart too. I am worried and sad about him now, as he seems to have no direction. John, I remember at the cottage, if I dropped a nail, you would pick it up and give it to me. I remember at the cottage that I could not work the VCR to put on a cartoon and Richard age four put it in the slot and turned it on. Richard is smart,too. You tell Lanie, I am sorry I played around. I should have been faithful, but I guess, because of the difference in our ages, there was never hope of staying together. Goodbye. Your father.
Baguio Market.
Some girls work for less than five dollars a day.
This girl in Luneta Park Manila may meet a kind man who will take her to America, or take her to his hotel room and give her a few dollars, maybe. Life is hard for poor girls in the Philippines.

Story of a rape.
MILET JURIAL testified that she hails from San Jose, Digos, Davao del Sur. She claimed to be only 14 years old5 at the time of the incident. Despite her tender age, she admitted to having been deflowered by a boy friend in the province. At the invitation of one Erlinda Undang, she came to Manila on October 20, 1998, to work as a saleslady, but wound up as a cook in Malate. Unable to take her employer’s maltreatment, she fled from her employer on the night of January 18, 1999, with co-employee Susan Yap. They wound up in Luneta Park. They were seated near the Rizal Monument, when appellant approached them. He introduced himself as a National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) agent investigating cases of missing children and offered to help the two distressed girls. Fearing that their employer’s security guard might find them, the two girls readily went with him. Appellant brought them to Harrison Street, Manila where his uncle, a policeman, supposedly resided. As the uncle was not there, they went for a stroll at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) complex. Appellant then invited her to buy buko. They left Susan behind. She voluntarily went with appellant, as she believed he would not "touch her." They took a cab to Pasay Rotonda, where they had a meal. He then brought her to Baclaran Church where they stayed until 4:00 A.M. When Milet complained she was sleepy, appellant offered her shelter for the night and brought her to Mahal Kita Motel in Pasay City. Inside the motel room, complainant felt thirsty and asked for a glass of water from appellant. After she drank the water, she felt dizzy, fell on the bed, and slept. When she came to, she found herself naked on the bed with appellant lying on top of her, his penis inside her vagina. She tried to push him aside but he threatened to kill her if she resisted and shouted for help. Appellant succeeded in having carnal knowledge of her. They stayed in the motel until about 12:00 o’clock noon. She could not leave as appellant sat near the bedroom door. From the motel, appellant brought Milet to Harrison Plaza where they had lunch. He next brought her to a chapel on the second floor of the mall. He left her at the chapel after telling her he would look for money, but promised to be back for her. After appellant left, she asked for help from one Aldwin Coronel who was also inside the chapel. Aldwin informed her that the man she was with was a pimp. Aldwin accompanied Milet to the office of the mall security force where she revealed that Gavina had raped her. Responding policemen immediately arrested appellant upon his return. |

Dog-meat trade.http://www.all-creatures.org/anex/dog.html
Fact No. 1 – Dog meat is openly traded in Baguio City and the Cordilleras in the Philippines. Around a hundred eateries and restaurants in the area are openly serving dog meat to their customers.
 |  | |
The “Ulo” referred to in the above photo is the head of the dog. Right photo shows how it is served | ||
 | ||
Uncooked dog meat is openly sold in the wet markets at Php65.00 (US$1.40) per kilogram. | ||
Fact No. 2 – The supply of dog meat comes from all over the country. Live dogs are being transported by land, kept in cramped cages (most often, their muzzles are tightly tied to prevent them from making noise), bearing the heat of the sun for days, until they reach the illegal slaughterhouses located in various areas in Baguio City and the Cordillera provinces. Those that cannot bear the ordeal die along the way, and most often, end up “double dead”, as some unscrupulous traders butcher even the dead dogs and pass them on to unsuspecting customers.
   |
Fact No. 3 – The suffering of dogs continue up to their last breath. Below is the sequence of the brutality they are subjected to.
a. Using a looped pole, the dog is pulled from the cramped cage. The butcher hits the dog in the head several times, using a hard object, usually a wooden paddle, until the dog drops unconscious b. Using a sharp knife, the butcher slashes the dog’s throat, making sure to hit the dog’s jugular vein, and lets the blood ooze out. The blood is collected in a bowl, as this is also sold. |  |
c. The dog’s body is then placed over the fire to burn its fur. e. Depending on the request of the customer(s), the dog carcass is sold in whole, with just the intestines removed and cleaned; or, the butcher chops the body and sells it retail (by the kilogram) at the public markets. |  |
  |  |
Fact No. 4 – The Philippines, in February 1998, passed Republic Act 8485 otherwise known as the Animal Welfare Act, but this law is being poorly implemented. One reason for the poor implementation is that some, if not most of the top local officials themselves are dog eaters. The illegal dog meat trade has developed over the last 20 years into huge trade. There has been no political will for its active eradication and implementation of the law. In the Philippines, unless there is a complaint, and enough logistics, the law enforcers will not move.
Fact No. 5 – In Baguio City the dog pound dispose of unclaimed/captured stray dogs through public bidding. However, anyone (even the dog traders and dog eaters) can join and buy the dogs, as the dog pound does not bother to determine the purpose of the buyers. They just don’t care even if the dogs end up in dog slaughterhouses. Another disturbing fact is, just beside the dog pound, is a place where some traders butcher dogs.
