that although the first church was drawn in vast wilderness from slavery in Egypt and going to the
promised land. God never forsakes them. They were fed daily through manna. But when some
turn out to become greedy, the kept manna consequently was rotten. Instruct them to negotiate

the Philippines awarding ownership to disputed islands in the Philippine West Sea including
Spratly Islands which possess rich natural resources and fishing areas. Tensions between China
and both the Philippines and Vietnam have recently cooled. According to: www.cfr.org/global-
conflict-tracker, in 2016 the total trade that passed through the South China Sea amounted to
$3.37 trillion. In 2017, however, 40% of the global liquefied natural gas trade transited to it. The
United States has also stepped up its military activity and naval presence in the region using
international law principle the: “Freedom of Navigation Doctrine”. Passage of vessel from a
navigable international water is allowed. Since 2017, the United States has conducted six (6)

Lesson 3: Motivation
Lesson 4: Presentation
Thirtieth (30th) South East Asian Games (SEAG) brought honor and pride to all Filipinos
worldwide. After hosting the most successful biennial meet the Philippines once again has proven
that she is still a force to reckon with in this part of the world. Bagging the most coveted overall
championship taught us that we still need to provide full support to all Filipino athletes, coaches,
supporters, and sports officials. A much clearer program is essential for continued success.
Delegates and athletes from competing countries recognized the warmth hospitality given to
them. We were able to show momentarily how to experience being part and member of the whole
Filipino family.
Regionalism is a functional relation that bundles multiple nations with political, economic and
cultural inheritance, often based on the geographical advantage. It is a political ideology that
favors a specific region over a greater area. Regionalism emphasizes on developing the
administrative power and swaying the available or some inhabitants of a region. It usually results
due to political separations, religious geography, cultural boundaries, linguistic regions, and
managerial decisions.
Topic 2- Asian Regionalism
The three (3) factors leading to greater integration of the Asian region are as follows:
1. Trade. In ancient times, regions of Asia had commercial relations among themselves as well as
with parts of Europe and Africa. Nomadic peoples traded over considerable distances using
“barter” as the medium of exchange. Ancient people were so honest and truthful, as no
businessman was aggrieved and defrauded.
2. Similar Culture. The culture of Asia is diverse but they do share many things. This makes it an
easier fit during times of negotiations.
3. Common Goals. The Asian region recognize the mutual benefits of a slow integration.
The Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) is a regional grouping founded to
promote accelerated economic growth, facilitate social progress and cultural development, pursue

and Singapore. Curently it has ten (10) members which included: Vietnam, Myanmar, Brunei
Darrusalam, Laos, and Timor Leste. Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) has
been formed which included mutual agreement with the United States, China, Japan, and South
Korea.
Topic 6- APEC- Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation

and analyzing regional markers and institutes as well as governing rules and norms for facilitating
transparent and effective business transactions. It operates on the basis of non-binding

The following questions are laid down to assess effectiveness of teaching-learning process. It will

1. Middle of 17th, 19th, and mid-20th centuries were three (3) periods which aptly described
hegemonic domination of super power countries in the modern world. Economy, military, and
