The management does not address such problems as cultural problems, but extends its best effort to address any problems encountered by the management Th last chapter consists of recommendations for further studies on similar production to that on Miss Saigon, the experiences of foreign e:x-patriates working in the Philippines and a comparative study on Broadway and the local theater scene 2001-03-01T00:00:00Z http://dspace.cas.upm.edu.ph:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/3669 Ang Pamayanan ng Krus na Ligas: Isang Dokumentasyon ng Siming at Kultura Del Rosario, Jacqueline Lourdes U. Ang Krus na Ligas ay isang pamayanan na matatagpuan sa Diliman sa Lungsod ng Quezon at kabilang sa ikaapat na distrito. Layunin ng pag-aaral na ito na ilarawan ang pamayanan ng Krus na Ligas sa pamamagitan ng sining at kultura na makiikita dito. Sa pamamagitan ng sining at kultura ay malalaman din kung anu-ano ba ang isinasaalang-alang na 'mutya' sa lugar na ito. Aalamin ng mananaliksik kung paano nagkaroon ng kontribusyon ang mga 'mutyang' ito sa paglalarawan ng pamayanang ito. Ang pag-aaral na ito ay may limang bahagi. Tatalakayin ng unang bahagi ang mga sangkap na makakatulong upang maabot ang layunin ng pagaaral na ito. Ang ikalawang bahagi ang maglalarawan ng mga katangian ng pamayanan: lokasyon, topograpiya, klima, populasyon. Sa ikatlong bahagi, malalaman ang mga kulturang diwa at materyal na makikita sa pamayanang ito. lsinalaysay sa bahaging ito ang makulay na kasaysayan ng Krus na Ligas at bakit ito kinilalang isang makasaysayang lugar. Malalaman din dito ang kadahilanan kung bakit lumiit ng lumiit ang lupaing sakop ng Krus na Ligas. Kasama na rin dito ang alamat na nagpapaliwanag kung bakit pinangalanang Krus na Ligas ang lugar na ito. Sa bahagi ding ito mailalarawan ang mga 'mutya' ng pamayanan. Ang mga mutyang nakapaloob sa pamayanang ito ay ang Parokya Simbahan ng Krus na Ligas na masasabing saksi sa kasaysayan ng Krus na Ligas, ang Kabukiran na masasabing tanging-yaman na natitira lalunglalo na sa mga magsasaka doon, at ang mga pagdiriwang, na sa paglipas ng panahon ay napakalaki ng ipinagbago. llalarawan sa ikaapat na bahagi ang pamayanan ng Krus na Ligas sa pamamagitan ng pagsusuri na ginagamitan ng konsepto ng 'mutya': bilang isang diwa at materyal. Sa mga mutya na nasabi sa ikatlong bahagi, masasalamin dito ang mga pagbabagong naganap at malalaman kung anu-ano na ba ang binibigyang-halaga ng pamayanang ito sa kasalukuyang panahon. Noon, ang mutyang pinakabinibigyan nila ng halaga ay ang diwa ng pagkakaisa. Ngunit, sa paglipas ng panahon ito ay napalitan ng pagsasarili o ng pagkakanya-kanya. Nangyari ito dahil ang tradisyunal na gawain ay napalitan ng makabagong pamamaraan. lsang naging salik pa dito ay ang pagkakaroon ng karunungan na para sa mga matatanda doon ay nakakasama kapag nasobrahan. Ang maaaring maipagmamalaki ng Krus na Ligas magpahanggang ngayon ay ang pagiging larawan pa rin ng isang probinsya. Sinuman ang maligaw sa lugar na ito ay madarama ang pagiging probinsya ng lugar na ito. 2001-03-01T00:00:00Z http://dspace.cas.upm.edu.ph:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/3660 A Study on the Rehabilitation Project of the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church Guda, Abigail G. The Study on the Rehabilitation Project of St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church answers the question: How was the rehabilitation of the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church managed? It examines the two fundamental aspects of project management, which are planning and implementation. The study documents the history and background, and the architectural features of the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church prior to the rehabilitation project. The study also documents the rehabilitation project and the changes made to the original structure. In 1968, National Artist for Architecture Leandro V. Locsin designed the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church, whose design is the precursor of that of the Folk Arts Theater. Unfortunately, in September 9, 2005, the interior of the parish church was badly damaged in a fire brought about by faulty electrical wiring. The damage was extensive that only the 28 concrete buttresses and the fins of the old church structure remained which accounts to 70-80% of the whole structure. Through the initiative of parish priest, Rev. Fr. Benito B. Tuazon, and the collaboration of the parish community, the church underwent rehabilitation with Dominic Galicia as its new architect. There are two committees-the Fundraising Committee and the Construction Committee-formed to handle the management of the rehabilitation project of the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church. With the proper guidance of Architect Dominic Galicia, the parish decided on a returning a building preserving the features rehabilitation project which involves into use through alteration while of the original building which are significant to its historical and architectural value. Architect Dominic Galicia, as a member of the Advisory Council of the Heritage Conservation Society, was very much concerned about preserving the remaining concrete structures of the old church to honor the work of Architect Leandro V. Locsin as a National Artist. However, in any construction project for churches, the need of the parish should be attended first before any architectural concern. As a result, in the design of the rehabilitated parish church, the remaining fins of the old church had to be eliminated in the process to provide room for the frontline and in the mezzanine. In the rehabilitated St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church, the 28 concrete buttresses were the only parts of the old church structure that were retained. Hence, Architect Leandro V. Locsin' s essential architectural character of massive floating roof slab can no longer be seen. The reason for this can be attributed to the primary concern of addressing to the need of the parish for a bigger place of worship. With only few refinements left, the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church was ready for use in time for the feast day of Saint Alphonsus on August 01, 2007. The actual rehabilitation project took almost two years which corresponds to what Architect Dominic Galicia has expected. In terms of the actual cost, the proposed budget of 40 million escalated to more than 64 million due to unavoidable circumstance which is the high inflation rate during the rehabilitation project. The St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish was successful in its seven objectives for the rehabilitated parish Church. The first in accordance with the Liturgical Requirements of the Catholic Church-was achieved through the constant communication of the parish to the Liturgical Commission. The second-it will imbibe and express the charisma of the patron saint, St. Alphonsus-was ensured with the extensive research done by Architect Dominic Galicia about the life and work of St. Alphonsus and incorporating it in the design of the rehabilitated parish church. The third-it will be durable and could withstand the test of time and natural threats-was ensured by hiring a world expert in seismic engineering, Structural Engineer Carlos Villaraza. The fourth-it will be functional and worshipper oriented- is brought about by complying with the Liturgical Guidelines. The fifth-done in the most economical way possible was achieved by applying the concept of value engineering and direct negotiation of the parish with the suppliers. The fifth environmentally concerned-was attained by the incorporation of operable glass window in the church's new design. The last something bigger-was achieved by adding a mezzanine level. The study concluded that the rehabilitation of the St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori Parish Church was effectively and efficiently managed by the key people involved which aid for the achievement of the vision and objectives of the parish. This was realized through the careful planning, constant coordination, and having vision and objectives. Consequently, a magnificent and liturgically sound parish church comes out from the ruins of the original structure. Furthermore, even though, the 28 concrete buttresses are now only 20-30% of the new church, it is worth mentioning that the parish made an effort to save what was left of the church designed by National Artist for Architecture Leandro Locsin. Having a background on architectural heritage preservation is of great importance. Without this, what was left of the church might have been totally lost. 2009-03-01T00:00:00Z http://dspace.cas.upm.edu.ph:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/3656 A Museum Collections Study of the Local Church Based Museum in Manaoag, Pangasinan Cruz, Merbennyl C. Manaoag, a town 4 00 years old, is truly a place wealthy with the arts, culture and tradition. The town is a destination for religious pilgrimage. Our Lady of Manaoag Museum is the only ecclesiastical museum under the supervision and care of the Dominicans in the whole town and in the entire Pangasinan. The Manaoag church has succeeded in putting up a museum for their collections. The collections of the museum consist of religious objects that were used in early times during celebrations and functions by priests, and al so objects given by devotees of the Blessed Virgin of Manaoag as their way of showing their love for Her. Some of the objects, most especially the instruments used by the priests and their assistants in masses, benediction, Holy Sacrament, baptism, etc., such as the priests' vestments, a re four centuries old. Part of the recent collections like the per fumes, and accessories such as jewelry and rosaries of the Blessed Mother are greater in number than the religious objects of the church. This study is on the Manaoag museum collections, focusing on the policies and pr act ices of Our Lady of Manaoaq Museum. There are no written policies for the museum, especially for their collections. Collections management policy is very essential for the collections to be well preserved and maintained. Policies on collecting, documenting and research should be made by the museum for its development, and co guide them when the opportunity comes for museum expansion. Due to the fact that the Our Lady of Manaoag museum lacks collections management policies, the researcher proposed one for them. The proposal will consist of the purpose or the objective of the museum, its goals, and will also serve as a guide for them in performing the aspects and functions of collections management acquiring, documenting, research, conservation, security, and exhibit ion. It will best describe the museum and help them perform these functions well. Now as the museum turns two in May 2002, the church should feel the need to be systematic in managing the museum, most especially with regards to its collections. 2002-03-01T00:00:00Z
