INTRODUCTION:
Due to the implementation of Free Trade, Parity Rights, and the Laurel-Langley
Agreement, Retail Trade Liberalization Act of 2000, and other neo-liberal policies
governing the global economy at present since the creation of the United Nations, the
Philippine economy became attached to the economic interests and needs of North
America. This made the Philippines the producer of raw materials for rich countries, the
market for foreign manufactured goods, and at present a source of cheap labor..
Thus, the application of the Iceberg Learning and Teaching Strategy in this
module goes beyond identifying factors behind the emergence of colonial mentality
among Filipinos, but redressing aspects or characteristics of it that you have or practice
based upon sharing and discussion of this matter in class and references or readings
cited below in this module.
