It is along this line that it is important to craft a peacekeeping concept appropriate to the particular situation of peace and order in the barangay. Realizing the significance of barangay peace and order programs, this study was steered to determine the prevailing peace and order programs and its extent of implementation in Barangay Sumacab Este, Cabanatuan City, Nueva Ecija, Philippines. The researchers used a pre–designed survey questionnaire and distributed them to 270 barangay residents. The distribution was based on convenience sampling technique and data gathered were treated with a weighted mean. The results of the study have shown that majority of the barangay peace and order programs are implemented only to a moderate extent based on the experience of the citizens. Thus, it is recommended that the barangay officials together with all the concerned personnel including the chief of the barangay enforcers, the barangay enforcers, and barangay workers shall work altogether to strengthen the peace and order programs in the barangay. This shall be done with careful planning and well–defined strategies within the smallest political unit in the Philippines, the barangay level.

Implementation of Ordinances On Peace and Order in The Municipality of Cabagan, Isabela

Eric N. Habiatan Isabela State University, Cauayan City, Philippines

The study assessed the level of implementation of ordinances on peace and order in Cabagan, Isabela. Using the descriptive design, data gathered from the 234 members of the barangay peace and order councils of the 26 barangays of Cabagan, Isabela was analyzed using the arithmetic mean, ANOVA test, and t-test.

In view of the findings of the research, it can be concluded that the level of implementation of ordinances on peace and order is "moderately implemented." The implementation of ordinances was rated as "much implemented" by the Barangay Tanod, Barangay Captain, and Community Based Anti-Crime sectors, while it was rated as "moderately implemented" by the Youth, Lupong Tagapamayapa, Teacher, Interfaith, Senior Citizen, and Non-Governmental Organization sectors. Thus, barangay captain, Lupong Tagapamayapa, and the Community Based Anti-crime sectors showed a better assessment of the peace and order ordinances' implementation than their counterpart stakeholders. Barangay affiliations, which include barangay locations in urban areas and less populated areas, showed better implementation of peace and order ordinances. In addition, both urban and rural barangays say that ordinances on peace and order are being "moderately implemented." This means that both urban and rural barangays say the same thing about how well ordinances on peace and order are being implemented.

Factors Affecting Effective Dissemination of Peace and Order Ordinances to Punong Barangays in Maria

The study measured the factors affecting effective dissemination of peace and order ordinances to punong barangays in the Municipality of Maria Aurora, Aurora Province, Philippines. The study used predesigned survey questionnaires and key informants in the gathering of data. The questionnaire distribution was based on purposive sampling. The participants are thirty-four (34) punong barangays. The barangay is the smallest political unit in the Philippines. The data gathered are treated with frequency distribution and weighted mean. The factors of dissemination are: a) socio-demographic characteristics of respondents, b) information sources, c) strategies and channels of communication are measured. In general, participants’ level of interest towards new legislation is positive. However, a slight divergence is noticed in the case of upland barangays as they manifested little awareness on the existing peace and order ordinances. Thus, it is recommended that effective dissemination strategies be adopted and information materials be developed to improve dissemination of new ordinances. The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in information dissemination is highly recommended.

Owing to the role of Barangay Peacemaking Action Team (BPAT) in peacekeeping, it is paramount that a continuous effort to improve the delivery of BPAT services must be implemented. Obtaining the perception of the members of the community regarding their level of satisfaction on BPAT performance could be a kick-start to evaluate the delivery of its services. Hence, this study was conducted to determine the community satisfaction on BPAT performance in Ozamiz City, Philippines. An evaluative study design was utilized to gather data from 385 respondents from the 10 selected barangays in Ozamiz City. A validated questionnaire was the main instrument used. Key informant interview was conducted to obtain more information. Results revealed that the respondents have very high level of satisfaction on the services of the BPAT except in addressing crime prevention. When the respondents were grouped by profile, the age, gender, and place of residency (based on highest and lowest crime rate) exhibited no statistically significant difference in their level of satisfaction. Nonetheless, the civil status, educational attainment, and period of residency showed statistically significant difference. This study may provide the Philippine National Police baseline information whether the residents in Ozamiz City are satisfied with the BPAT performance. Furthermore, this study may give insights to policy makers for the improvement of peace and order at the barangay level.

Introduction

The Philippine Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) in its Memorandum Circular No. 2003-02 views the maintenance of peace and order as the key factor in the improvement of the community and the nation (Laru-an & Penny, 2015). The Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Local Government Unit (LGU), particularly at the barangay level, had innovated and created initiatives to enhance peacekeeping in the community (Alkire, 2003). However, most of the strategies and concepts of the PNP in the past against criminality were adopted from other countries and were found not suitable to the existing criminality situation in the Philippines. Thus, a peacemaking concept that is responsive to the unique peace and order conditions in the country had been crafted [Philippine National Police (PNP), 2009]. Since then, the community oriented policing system (COPS) of the PNP has gone a long way towards providing proactive police services to the citizens (PNP, 2009). In COPS, the barangay is the heart of the policing system. The precincts are located within the community where policemen and people interact as partners in promoting crime prevention and the maintenance of peace and order (Kraft, 2010). Based on this concept, the Barangay Peacemaking Action Team (BPAT) has been created to provide better police services to the community. The BPAT is then the implementor of Barangay Peacekeeping Operations (BPO) of the PNP. The BPAT is a national program of the PNP to encourage people empowerment from the community to address the real-time response in case a need arises, be it peace and order, security and rescue related matters (Williams, 2001; Rochon, 2014; Pajarillo-Guadamor, 2016). Thus, the concept of BPAT basically calls for PNP members to lead in the fight against all forms of criminality distinct to their areas of responsibility, utilizing the active participation of the community (PNP, 2009; Hart, 2013). The community leaders are then expected to 186

take a unified stand against crimes, violence, and disregard for laws and commit to crime prevention and control programs (Adler & Kwon, 2002; San Juan, 2013). As enunciated in Section 391 (16) of the Local Government Code of 1991, the barangay may be responsible for the organization of a community brigade or community service as may be necessary to assist in the peace and order efforts of the LGU. Barangay peace and order committee was then created in agreement with Executive Order No. 366 (1996) to reinforce peacekeeping in communities. The BPAT is therefore a community brigade composed of civilian volunteers duly appointed by the Punong Barangay upon the recommendation of the Barangay Peace and Order Council (PNP, 2009). Based on the Lead PNP Manual (PNP, 2009), BPAT functions in organizing and mobilizing various sectors of the community in support of the maintenance of peace and order and safety. It also conducts crisis management, disaster mitigation, search, rescue, and relief operations within the community. Another function of BPAT is to strengthen and support the Barangay Justice System. Lastly, it conducts crime prevention and deterrence measures to protect the vulnerable sectors of the community. Armed with nightsticks, BPAT members are often exposed to dangers (Estonio, 2014). The Local Government Code provides a maximum of 20 BPAT in each barangay and may create more if necessary (DILG Memorandum Circular No. 2003-42). The BPAT exercises its authority to settle disputes (PNP, 2009) and guards the neighborhood against lawless elements. Specifically, BPAT conducts surveillance on crime breeding areas, protects property, responds to community problems such as nuisance complaints, helps victims of crimes, responds to calls, and deals with traffic safety. As reflected in the Mission and Vision of BPAT, their peacekeeping activities aim to organize a peaceful and orderly community that is expected to be responsive to their safety and security needs in cooperation with the local police (PNP, 2009). Since peace and public safety concerns are varied and constantly evolving, and their 187

concepts can differ from culture to culture and community to community (Rummel, 1981; Richmond, 2003; Anderson, 2004), the criteria to measure the performance of BPAT relative to their functions varies as well from one community to another. The peace and order of one locality may be different depending also on how this concept is defined. In a social sense, peace is defined as a lack of conflict and freedom from fear of violence between individuals and groups (Galtung, 1981). However, peace does not only refer to the lack of hostility or the absence of dissension and violence. It is also an environment that is characterized by healthy interpersonal and international relationships, and acknowledgment of equality and fairness (Rummel, 1981). Peace and order are not only vital in sustaining political stability and social order, but also aid the progress of investments, attracts more tourists, and creates more employment for economic development (Grindle, 2004; Acharya, 2014). Hence, peace and order shall be realized in support to national development (Obama, 2010; Roman, 2013) in a sense that it is virtually impossible to accomplish things in a situation of lawlessness and disorder (Roxas, 2003). The condition of peace and order in the Philippines is also unique and has been characterized as unstable (Valmores, 2004). The rate of violence and crime increases daily (Sylvester, 2010). Specifically, the peace and order in Ozamiz City in Northern Mindanao, Philippines is regarded as a serious issue. Relative to other places, the incidence of crime in the city could affect the quality of life of the citizens. In the study conducted by Caba-ong et al. (2015), the average monthly crime rate in the said city (index and non-index crime) from 2010-2012 was higher compared to the crime statistics in Region X. The shrillest increase in crime rate was recorded in 2013. These incidents are alarming to the community. Peacekeeping is the basic function of the PNP and police visibility is one of the main thrusts of the peacekeeping activity. Without the police, it would be very difficult to maintain peace and order. This is where the police must share the mantle of responsibility for fighting 188

crime with the members of the community. Owing to the role of BPAT in peacekeeping and the varying challenges with peace and order that citizens may encounter in their locality, it is paramount that a continuous effort to improve the delivery of BPAT services must be implemented. Obtaining the perception of the members of the community regarding their level of satisfaction on BPAT performance could be a kick-start to evaluate the delivery of its services. Hence, this study was conducted to determine the community satisfaction on BPAT performance in Ozamiz City, Philippines. The findings may provide the PNP baseline information whether the residents in Ozamiz City are satisfied with the BPAT services. Furthermore, this study may give insights to policy makers for the improvement of peace and order at the barangay level. The study delimits only on the functions and responsibility of the BPAT as enunciated by the Local Government Code.

Materials and Methods

Ozamiz City is nestled at the entrance of Panguil Bay in Northwestern Mindanao with an estimated land area of 16,407 hectares (Department of Tourism, 2014). The city comprises 51 barangays where 23 are classified as urban and 28 classified as rural (Pasay, 2013). It has a population of 141,828 (Census of Population, 2015). Of the 51 barangays, only 10 barangays were selected and included in this study. These are the top 5 barangays with the highest crime rates and top 5 with the lowest crime rates as of July 2016 (PNP Ozamiz Station). The total number of registered voters of the 10 barangays as of May 2016 was gathered from the Commission on Elections. The sample size was determined using Sloven’s formula (Olatunde & Joshua, 2012) with 95% level of confidence. A total of 385 respondents (registered voters) were chosen through simple random sampling.

Evaluative study design was utilized. Permission from the barangay officials was obtained prior to the conduct of the study. The target respondents were also informed regarding the scope and purpose of the study, anonymity and confidentiality of their responses during the data collection, report writing, and dissemination of findings and their right to voluntary participation. After obtaining the informed consent from the respondents, they were asked to fill out the validated survey questionnaire that passed the Cronbachs’ alpha reliability test (0.93 internal consistency). Items in the questionnaire were translated into Cebuano for better understanding. The questionnaire was divided into two parts. Part I entails the respondents’ profile such as age, gender, status, educational attainment, period of residency and place of residency. Part II has 10 items that describe the expected functions of BPAT which the respondents evaluated to indicate their level of satisfaction. These parameters include the following: crime prevention, surveillance, property protection, response to community problems, dealing with nuisance complaints and neighborhood disputes, assistance for crime victims, response to calls, visible presence, and traffic safety. These parameters are based on main thrusts of the barangay peacekeeping operations of the PNP. These items were rated on a 5 point Likert-type scale (1-Not Satisfied, 2-Less Satisfied, 3-Somewhat Satisfied, 4-Satisfied and 5-Very Satisfied) with verbal interpretation of very high (4.20-5.0); high (3.40-4.19); moderate (2.60-3.3.39); low (1.80-2.59); very low (1.00-1.79). The said instrument was supported by an in-depth interview with several key-informants who were also the respondents but volunteered to provide more information. Analysis of the data gathered in this study was done through the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16. Descriptive statistics, independent t-test, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were utilized to determine the significant difference on respondents’ satisfactory level on BPAT performance when grouped by profile.

Results and Discussion

Respondents’ profile Table 1 shows the respondents’ profile included in the study. Findings revealed that despite the variation in ages (39.34%), the majority of the respondents belong to the millennial age (18-33). Millennial age is currently 20-35 or born between 1980 and the end of 1994. They are also known as Generation Y because they follow the generation X (born 1965-1979) (Lyons, 2016). The millennial generation is confident, happy, and optimistic. People of this generation are into teamwork, group projects, service learning, and community service (Jonas-Dwyer & Pospisil, 2004; Howe, 2004). Furthermore, 61.87% of the respondents were women and married (76.62%). This result implies that mostly women were left at home during the day. In a traditional marriage, a wife usually stays at home to provide the domestic needs of the family such as house working and raising children (Boon et al., 2004). Of the 385 respondents, many were high school and elementary graduates while only 15% were college graduates. It has been observed that since some of the barangays surveyed are located far from tertiary schools, the residents found it difficult to enroll in tertiary education. According to Gratz et al. (2006), parents’ personal educational backgrounds and economic backgrounds have a significant effect on their children’s education. They stressed that the education in which the children acquire is very much reliant on the education that their parents obtained when they were children. Research shows that the literacy of their parents strongly affects the education of their children (Sclafani, 2004). According to the National Statistics Office 2003 Functional Literacy, Education, and Mass Media Survey, the top reason for people aged 6-24 for not attending school is employment or “looking for work,” high cost of education, and lack of personal interest. Other reasons include, among others, housekeeping, illness or disability, failure to cope with school work, and distance from school (Sisante, 2008). 191

Furthermore, despite the variation in the period of residency (59.88%), a considerable number of the respondents have resided in their respective barangays for almost 19-36 years, and even few reside for 64 years and above (4.42%). These people resided in the barangay since birth and had strong family ties. People overwhelmingly stay in a locality because of family ties (Fischer et al., 2000: Florida, 2014).

Differences in the respondents’ level of satisfaction on the BPAT performance when grouped by profile Table 2 shows the differences on the respondents’ level of satisfaction on the services of the BPAT when grouped by profile. Findings showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the mean of the three variables such as age, gender, and place of residency based on the recorded crime rate. This result implies that regardless of the disparity in age, gender, and place of residence (whether high or low crime rate) the respondents have comparable level of satisfaction on the services of the BPAT. The work of Laru-an & Penny (2015) showed no significant difference in the performance level of Barangay tanod as to their age but the respondents of this study were the tanod themselves. In addition, it is noted in this study that those respondents residing on the barangays with the highest crime rate have similar level of satisfaction to those residing in the area with lowest crime rate. This result disagrees with the work of several researchers in which individuals with high crime rate areas are relatively less satisfied with life than those who lived in low crime areas (Fitzgerald, 2008; Posner & Sunstein, 2010; Scarborough et al., 2010). In-depth interview from respondents revealed that although their barangay has the highest crime rate as recorded by the PNP, most of the actual crime incidence happened somewhere in other places but cadavers were thrown and recorded in their barangay. In addition, some respondents articulated that there were instances that BPAT was able to report to the barangay officials the suspect of a crime from other places that were 193

found hiding in their barangay. Probably, although BPAT is doing its job well, the criminals are very quick that the BPAT sometimes could not recognize them.

The mean difference is significant at the 0.05 level.

On the contrary, there is a statistically significant difference in the community’s level of satisfaction when grouped by civil status, educational attainment, and period of residency. This finding implies that the differences in the mean score of these three variables are noteworthy in the respondents’ satisfactory level. To determine which category in each variable showed the disparity, the composite mean was computed and interpreted based on the continuum (Table 3). Regarding the civil status, although the coefficient of variation is 7.64%, the mean differences were statistically significant. It was found that both married and single individuals have relatively the same level of satisfaction (very high). However, the widowed respondents have a lower level of satisfaction. This result was also affirmed by Kennelly (2012) which stated that people who lost their spouses experience a long-term decline in life satisfaction. Most likely the widows involved in this study did not evidently see the actual performance of the BPAT since most of them chose to leave and focus on seeking jobs in order to sustain their daily needs. 194

Considering that most of the respondents in this study were women, several studies have indeed found that widowhood is generally a crucial problem financially for women than men, and has an adverse impact on the social and psychological well-being of women (Schuster & Butler, 1989; Trivedi et al., 2009). Confronted with the loss of resources in widowhood, women have only a few options available to improve their economic status (Sevak et al., 2004). With these complications in life, the widows might have less time to appreciate the efforts of others. Furthermore, regarding the respondents’ period of residency, despite the variation of 3.17% the findings depict that those who reside longer in the community had a very high level of satisfaction. This observed variation could be because long-established residents have a higher level of satisfaction on the BPAT performance since they more likely feel a sense of belongingness to their community, create rapport with the people, and view their neighborhood as a good place to raise children (Florida, 2014). The attachment to the social and natural environment is distinctively predicted by length of residence, social interaction, and socio-demographic characteristics (Brehm et al., 2006). The residency was a stronger predictor of attachment to the social environment while social interaction was a stronger predictor of attachment to the natural environment (Scannell & Gifford, 2010). Newcomers tended to be less satisfied with interpersonal relationships and community services and facilities than the long-established residents (Brown, & Wardwell, 2013). Finally, the level of satisfaction was greater among those who had lived longer in an area. Likewise, looking into the significant mean differences in educational attainment of the respondents, it was clearly shown that those who have the lower level of educational attainment relatively have the lower level of satisfaction or vice versa. This result is supported by Brown & Wardwell (2013) emphasizing that the high levels of educational attainment are linked to higher levels of satisfaction with interpersonal relationships with the community. 196

Educational status does not just govern the occupational status and income, but it also affects every aspect of life. Education has frequently been shown to be closely related to life satisfaction (Moen et al., 2001; Moody, 2002). Finally, educational attainment might serve as the baseline on how the respondents coherently understand the statements in the instrument given. Although the statements were discussed to them and translated into Cebuano, some respondents might have difficulties in grasping the concept introduced.

Respondents’ satisfaction with BPAT performance Figure 1 depicts the respondents’ level of satisfaction on the services of the BPAT. A very high satisfactory level was noted in almost all of the performance indicators included in this study. This finding implies that BPAT was serious and dedicated in performing its task as law enforcers in the barangay level (Laru-an & Penny, 2015). Dealing with traffic safety and providing visible presence obtained the highest level of community satisfaction. It has been observed that most BPAT members set up their outpost near schools and along the roadsides, thus enhancing security and safety of the streets. According to the DILG Memorandum Circular No. 2003-42 (2003), BPAT should assist in facilitating smooth flow of traffic and report to the concerned barangay officials the occurrence of any crime, public disturbance, accident, fire, and environmental degradation activities and other untoward incidents in the Barangay (Barangay Tanods – LGUpdates, 2013). Most likely the BPAT in Ozamiz City is well-motivated and properly oriented to the task allocated for better performance in compliance with the provision of the local government code and revised penal code. Thus, in this study community satisfaction on BPAT performance is very high.

On the other hand, the way how BPAT addresses crime prevention obtained the lowest rank. The results could be associated to lack of proper facilities and training for crime prevention. In their uniforms, BPAT members are equipped with flashlight and armed with nightsticks only while conducting night patrols around the vicinity of the barangays. In this situation, they are exposed to danger in the hands of criminal elements and other wayward members of society. Members of BPAT are volunteers who are responsible for peacekeeping activities in the barangay (Caparas & Agrawal, 2016). Based on the information gathered during the interview with the respondents, despite the lack of proper facilities for crime prevention, BPAT members do not hesitate to risk their lives just to safeguard the security of the people in their respective barangays. The result may imply that there is a need to empower the BPAT members and equip them with proper facilities for

crime prevention. It is important also for the PNP to conduct BPAT training for crime prevention. Despite insufficient supply of facilities to prevent crime, BPAT conducts community-based information campaign and activities in support of the PNP’s internal security operation, anti-criminality effort, disaster management and control program (Delgado, 2011). The BPAT coordinates diligently with the barangay officials and police/local authorities in the move against all forms of crimes such as smuggling, terrorism, carnapping, drug pushing, illegal gambling, drug trafficking, the crime against women, child abuse, and all forms of vices and syndicated crimes (Barangay Tanods – LGUpdates, 2013). It has been witnessed by the respondents that BPAT, barangay officials, and police officials in Ozamiz City work together in operation on “war on drugs” or the so-called “Oplan Tokhang.” When the curfew hour was implemented in the City, the BPAT also helps the local officials to execute the said order properly.

Conclusion and Recommendations

Community satisfaction on BPAT performance in Ozamiz City is very high. The residents positively perceive the outstanding commitment and dedication of BPAT in performing its task as law enforcers at the barangay level. However, the delivery of BPAT services on crime prevention has to be improved. Provision of proper facilities and training for crime prevention may be helpful for BPAT members. The Local Government officials and PNP in Ozamiz City may also consider what other support to provide for BPAT that will make it more effective in performing its duties.

The capacity of the people of Kragan District, Rembang Regency in dealing with abrasion disasters is still low. The low capacity is because the community has never received education on abrasion. This study was conducted to 1) examine and analyze the community’s capacity for abrasion disaster in the coastal area of Kragan District, Rembang Regency, 2) develop a community participation-based edusaster abrasion disaster education model, and 3) analyze the effectiveness of edusaster as a community participation-based abrasion disaster education model. This research is a mixed methods research that combines research and development (R&D), quantitative, and qualitative research. Model development is carried out through Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation stages. The subjects of this research are one expert on disaster materials, one expert on disaster education, 15 people who assess the product in a limited way, and 104 research samples. The data in this study were taken through questionnaires, interviews, observation, and documentation studies. Data analysis was carried out quantitatively to determine the community’s capacity, the effectiveness of the model, and the effectiveness of the model to increase community capacity. In addition, qualitative analysis was also carried out as triangulation. The results showed that the community’s capacity, in general, was still low. The highest community capacity is the participation capacity which is in the “Good” category, while the knowledge and attitude capacity are in the “enough” category, and the perception and adaptation and mitigation capacity, which is in the “Poor” category. Therefore, this research creates an abrasion disaster education model called edusaster, which can increase community capacity. The edusaster model is created through the ADDIE development model. The first stage is the analysis stage, which is done by analyzing the gap, then formulating the edusaster model as a solution. The edusaster model, which consists of a model syntax and complementary components of the model in the form of instruments for measuring community capacity, material internalization guidelines, participatory mapping guidelines, preparedness training guidelines, and research instruments are made at the design stage. According to experts at the development stage, the edusaster model that has been made is then tested for its effectiveness. The expert stated that the model had very good quality and was declared effective so that the model was then implemented to determine the effectiveness according to field implementation. The results show that the model effectively increases community capacity, both total capacity and partial capacity in the form of knowledge capacity, attitude, participation, perception, and adaptation and mitigation of abrasion disasters. The effectiveness of the edusaster model is seen from two stages, namely the effectiveness of the model based on expert and community assessments and based on the results of the effectiveness test. Disaster materials experts and disaster education experts stated that the model was “Very Good” in all aspects assessed. Through the limited test, the community also stated that the model was in the “Very Good” category. The edusaster model was also tested for its effectiveness in increasing community capacity through implementation on a field scale by involving the experimental group treated with the edusaster model and the control group treated with conventional disaster education. The analysis results show that disaster education with edusaster and conventional models both increase the capacity of the people of Kragan District to deal with abrasion disasters. However, the increase in community capacity was higher in the experimental group than in the control group, so it can be seen that disaster education with the edusaster model is more effective than the conventional model.
