MY son Eduardo, who was then in third year high, got befuddled one day by a source material he wanted to use for his school report on Philippine culture. He had chanced upon it on the op-ed page of one of the leading newspapers.
'Dad, I found a very impressive report on the effect of culture on globalization,' he said. 'The only problem is that I can't seem to understand what it's saying. Can you help me? Listen:'Basically, globalization indicates a qualitative deepening of the internationalization process, strengthening the functional and weakening the territorial dimension of development.
From these develop their way of seeing and living, their systems of thought and values, their customs and traditions, their crafts and arts, their problems and their triumphs, that which they dream of and aspire for, and ultimately the national culture that they recognize in consensus and commitment.' 'Impressive! Do you think I can use it?''I'm not too sure, son.
