Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Philippines is an island country located in Southeast Asia, composed of more than 7,000 islands. It is known for its beautiful beaches, towering mountains, diverse culture, and hospitable people. Its capital, Manila, is a bustling metropolis and serves as the center of commerce, education, and government. The country is also rich in natural resources such as gold, copper, and nickel, making it an important player in the global economy. The Philippines has a complex history, having been colonized by the Spanish, then the Americans, before finally gaining independence in 1946. This diverse history has resulted in a unique blend of cultural influences, with Catholicism being the dominant religion due to the centuries-long Spanish rule. While poverty and corruption remain major issues, the country has made significant progress in recent years, particularly in terms of economic growth and tourism. With its rich culture, warm hospitality, and spectacular natural beauty, the Philippines is a must-visit destination for travelers.

Download or read book Philippine Cinema and the Cultural Economy of Distribution written by Michael Kho Lim and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-18 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the complex interplay of culture and economics in the context of Philippine cinema. It delves into the tension, interaction, and shifting movements between mainstream and independent filmmaking, examines the film distribution and exhibition systems, and investigates how existing business practices affect the sustainability of the independent sector. This book addresses the lack or absence of Asian representation in film distribution literature by supplying the much-needed Asian context and case study. It also advances the discourse of film distribution economy by expounding on the formal and semi-formal film distribution practices in a developing Asian country like the Philippines, where the thriving piracy culture is considered as ‘normal,’ and which is commonly depicted and discussed in existing literature. As such, this will be the first book that looks into the specifics of the Philippine film distribution and exhibition system and provides a historical grounding of its practices.

This edited book is divided into four parts: first, an introduction to the development of policy and contemporary management issues in Philippine tourism; second, nature-based tourism and the natural environment; third, product development and branding; and fourth, accreditation and industry standards. The volume culminates with a synthesis of the progress of Philippine tourism development and management implications using the cases and experiences outlined in the chapters. This book serves as a systematic guide to the current state of tourism development and management in the Philippines, and as essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, educators, and, more importantly, tourism policy-makers.
