U.S. Embassy in the Philippines

One way that the US Embassy and the Environmental Protection Organization of the Philippines have worked to protect the oceans is to establish an autonomous underwater coral reef monitoring structure (ARMS) at this carefully selected three marine biodiversity conservation sites this week is. ARAB provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in collaboration with the US International Development Agency (USAID) and the Philippine Ministry of Environment and Biological Resources (DENR - BMB) is established on the Calabayo Island of Cavite, Palawan. Snake Island and Mactan Island in Cebu. ARMS provides a systematic, consistent, easily comparable method for monitoring the habitats and species of marine coral reefs. Since the NOAA program began in 2008, more than 850 ARMS has been installed in the Pacific, Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean.

Establishment of ARMS on 30th May is part of DENR's long-term plan to deploy more ARMS units to protected ocean areas to support biodiversity monitoring. Mendita Lim, director of DENR - BMB, Dani Newcomb of the United Nations Development Agency and Alett Nunez representative of NOAA Philippine representative led the project at Alegria Marine Reserve in Cordoba, Mactan Island on May 30.

Cooperating with the Philippines to protect the unique marine biodiversity of the Philippines is a priority for the US government. In the past ten years, the US government, active through the United States International Development Agency (IEA), supports the marine biodiversity conservation in the Philippines and pays 1.9 billion pesos to address problems such as overfishing, illegal, disorder, regulatory violations (46.5 million dollars). Unsustainable fishery and habitat deterioration. The US International Development Agency plans to increase fish stocks, restore major fish habitats, support modernization of fishery management, and relieve natural resource disputes.

During my stay in Manila, I also visited the entrepreneur incubator in this city and got the opportunity to learn about the different ways in which the US Embassy in the Philippines and the US space use innovative tools. For example, this spring, the embassy will hold a "MOOC training camp" to connect college students in the Philippines and the United States. Embassy's MOOC (Large Open Online Course) training camp incorporates the Smithsonian X course, the emergence of superheroes, and its impact on popular culture, encouraging this compelling argument and providing information.

In 2012, members of various people 's organizations marched at the US Embassy in Manila and protested the US government' s plan to expand the deployment of the Philippine government. Since 2002, the United States has 600 troops stationed in the Philippines. However, except for regular joint military exercises. However, it is expected to increase after the US government has announced plans to rearrange more troops in the Asia - Pacific region. It is noteworthy that not all Americans agree on American imperialist efforts at the turn of the century. In 1898, the Anti-Imperialist Union was established to oppose the Philippine U.S. consolidation, the Platten Amendment Treaty and the Paris Convention. The foundation of the alliance began with saying, "Imperialism is free to hostile and tends to be militaristic, which is evil that makes our glory free." Indeed, alliance members believe that imperialism can not exist in American democracy.
