HISTORY

Mark Welson Chua (died sometime between March 15-18, 2001) was a student of the
university of Santo Tomas whose death is widely believed to be linked to his expose of alleged
irregularities in the Reserved Officers Training Corps (ROTC) Unit of the university. His death
became the catalyst for the passage of Republic Act 9163 or the “National Service Training
Program (NSTP)” Law, which removed completion of mandatory ROTC as a precondition for
male college students.

Chua took his elementary and high school education at Saint Jude Catholic School and
his collegiate education at the University of Santo Tomas. He was a member of his ROTC Unit’s
intelligence monitoring team. He spilled out to UST’s official publication The Varsitarian about
his first-hand knowledge of corruption in the unit. This resulted into the relief of then
commandant Major Demy Tejares and his staff.
Chua received death threats after his revelations. The new ROTC commandant advised
him to undergo security training at Fort Bonifacio. On March 15, 2001, he was supposed to
“meet” an agent but he was never seen alive again. Three days later, his decomposing body
wrapped in a carpet floated in dirty waters of Pasig River, with his hands and feet tied and face
wrapped in cloth and packing tape. The autopsy report showed sludge in his lungs, indicating he
was alive when he was thrown into the river.
On March 31, 2004, Arnulfo Aparri, one of the four suspects in the killing of Chua, was
sentenced to die by lethal injection, and was ordered to pay 50,000 Philippine pesos to the
victim’s family. The whereabouts of the three other suspects.

FILIPINO CORE VALUES

 Truth one should be ready to deny what is false and to accept what is true. This involves
genuine concern for study and research (denying guesswork or gossip/tsismis) as reliable
sources of information.
 Love for the good should be the basis of decision and choices.
 Faith in the Almighty God holds us away from temptation.

 Integrity connotes wholesomeness or completeness. To a Filipino, it means honesty in all forms,

and despising lying, deceit, cheating, stealing, fraud, hypocrisy, and the like.
 Hardwork. Filipinos are hard working. They must be educated, though, along with the proper
attitude towards work and wise use of money to complement their industriousness.
 Social Justice requires that we have our talents and material possession with those who are
unfortunate and poor. Social justice is founded on the principle that all earthly goods belong to

6
 all men, that everybody has the right to be treated equally, and for those gifted to care for the
less fortunate.
