This article aims to fill in gaps in the overseas US basing literature by exploring grassroots sentiments in Olongapo and the reasons behind them. The interviews and survey show that many residents are nostalgic about Subic Base and amenable to its hypothetical return to the city. Factors behind this nostalgia are stunted economic growth, adjustments to post-base life, American ties, security concerns, and disagreement with government goals.","PeriodicalId":42268,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Studies-Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints","volume":"92 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75568610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The beauty contest affirms the complexity of the issue of wartime collaboration in Iloilo as the Ilonggo elites simultaneously cooperated with the Japanese and supported the guerrilla movement in its “lie low policy.”","PeriodicalId":42268,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Studies-Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73312269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Improved road conditions in Bicol in the early twentieth century were advantageous for the rapid development of motorized inland transportation. It was in this context that enterprising American serviceman Albert Louis Ammen realized the necessity of a reliable public transport business to assist the movement of people and goods. This article focuses on the Alatco’s evolution and emphasizes how its operation transformed various aspects of life in the Bicol Region.","PeriodicalId":42268,"journal":{"name":"Philippine Studies-Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints","volume":"42 1","pages":"591 - 626"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84288180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
