Declaration of Independence of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, September 2, 1945
“All men are created equal. They are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights,
among them are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."
This immortal statement was made in the Declaration of Independence of the United States of
America in 1776. In a broader sense, this means: All the peoples on the earth are equal from
birth, all the peoples have a right to live, to be happy and free.
The Declaration of the French Revolution made in 1791 on the Rights of Man and the Citizen
also states: “All men are born free and with equal rights, and must always remain free and have
equal rights.”
Those are undeniable truths.
Nevertheless, for more than eighty years, the French imperialists, abusing the standard of
Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity, have violated our Fatherland and oppressed our fellow-citizens.
They have acted contrary to the ideals of humanity and justice.
In the field of politics, they have deprived our people of every democratic liberty.
They have enforced inhuman laws; they have set up three distinct political regimes in the North,
the Center and the South of Vietnam in order to wreck our national unity and prevent our people
from being united.
They have built more prisons than schools. They have mercilessly slain our patriots; they have
drowned our uprisings in rivers of blood.
They have fettered public opinion; they have practiced obscurantism against our people.
To weaken our race they have forced us to use opium and alcohol.
In the field of economics, they have fleeced us to the backbone, impoverished our people, and
devastated our land.
They have robbed us of our rice fields, our mines, our forests, and our raw materials. They have
monopolized the issuing of bank-notes and the export trade.
They have invented numerous unjustifiable taxes and reduced our people, especially our
peasantry, to a state of extreme poverty.
2
They have hampered the prospering of our national bourgeoisie; they have mercilessly exploited
our workers.
In the autumn of 1940, when the Japanese Fascists violated Indochina’s territory to establish new
bases in their fight against the Allies, the French imperialists went down on their bended knees
and handed over our country to them.
Thus, from that date, our people were subjected to the double yoke of the French and the
Japanese. Their sufferings and miseries increased. The result was that from the end of last year to
the beginning of this year, from Quang Tri province to the North of Vietnam, more than two
million of our fellow-citizens died from starvation. On March 9, the French troops were
disarmed by the Japanese. The French colonialists either fled or surrendered showing that not
only were they incapable of “protecting” us, but that, in the span of five years, they had tw.
The document is the Brasilia Declaration from the 2005 summit between South American and Arab countries.
[1] The leaders committed to strengthening bi-regional relations and cooperation on issues like sustainable development, human rights, non-proliferation, and conflict resolution.
[2] They also agreed to work together on international peace and security through multilateral frameworks and respect for international law, including seeking a nuclear-weapon free zone in the Middle East and a just peace settlement in Israel-Palestine based on UN resolutions.
Manuel Roxas served as president of the Philippines from 1946 to 1948. His administration was marred by graft and corruption. He passed policies aimed at economic recovery after World War II, such as the Rice Share Tenancy Act, but faced difficulties implementing agrarian reform. Roxas also granted amnesty to collaborators with Japan during the war. However, his administration failed to curb the growing communist Hukbalahap movement in the countryside. Elpidio Quirino succeeded Roxas from 1948 to 1953 and took steps to weaken the Huks and support rural development, but his government also faced issues with corruption. Ramon Magsaysay served from 1953 to 1957 and made progress defeating the H
The resolution urges elected leaders and Filipino people to heed Pope Francis's call to live simply with honesty, integrity, and commitment to the common good. It notes that around 25% of Filipinos live in poverty. It summarizes Pope Francis's message during his 2015 visit, including urging political leaders to champion the poor and reject corruption. The resolution calls on all parties to work together to build a just nation serving all, especially the poor, during the "Year of the Poor."
The document discusses the Propaganda Movement and Katipunan in the Philippines' fight for independence from Spain in the late 19th century. Key figures like Jose Rizal, Marcelo Del Pilar, and Graciano Lopez Jaena advocated reforms through publications. When reforms failed, Andres Bonifacio established the secret Katipunan society to prepare for revolution. Its goals included uniting Filipinos and defending against injustice. The Katipunan's discovery led to the Philippine Revolution against Spanish colonial rule beginning in 1896.

The document summarizes key details about the Rwandan genocide that occurred in 1994, where Hutu extremists killed an estimated 800,000 Tutsi and moderate Hutus over the span of 100 days. It provides background on Rwanda's ethnic groups and the tensions between Hutus and Tutsis. It then outlines a timeline of major events during the genocide, including the initial killings, international responses and withdrawal of peacekeepers, and the RPF eventually capturing the capital. Perpetrators of the genocide like Bagosora and the Interahamwe militia are identified. The failures of the international community to respond adequately are also summarized.
The document provides an overview of the history and structure of the United Nations. It discusses how the UN was founded in 1945 by 51 countries to maintain international peace and security. It describes the main UN bodies including the General Assembly, Security Council, Economic and Social Council, Trusteeship Council, International Court of Justice, and Secretariat. Each body's roles and functions are summarized. The UN currently has 193 member states and works to address issues ranging from peacekeeping to humanitarian aid.
Juan M. Flavier was a former Senator of the Philippines from 1995 to 2007 who passed away in 2014. He overcame humble beginnings to become a doctor and dedicated his career to improving public health and helping the poor. As Health Secretary, he launched successful health programs. As a Senator, he authored landmark laws on health care, disease prevention, and improving quality of life. The Senate expressed their profound sympathy and condolences for his passing, recognizing his distinguished career and service to the Filipino people.

As a Senator, he authored landmark laws on health care, disease prevention, and improving quality of life. The Senate expressed their profound sympathy and condolences for his passing, recognizing his distinguished career and service to the Filipino people.
The Senate of the Philippines passed a resolution expressing full support for the United Nations' review of its peacekeeping and special political missions. The UN Secretary-General established an independent panel to review UN operations in light of new challenges. The panel, chaired by a Nobel Peace Prize laureate and composed of 13 other members from different countries, will examine issues like changing conflicts, mandates, partnerships, and protection of civilians. The resolution notes that a review is timely given challenges faced recently by Philippine peacekeepers in Syria. It reaffirms the Philippines' commitment to UN peacekeeping as a founding UN member.
The document is a resolution from the Senate of the Philippines expressing support for International Women's Day, which is observed annually on March 8th. It recognizes the achievements of women and the struggles they face to achieve equal rights and opportunities. It notes that women make up around half of the world's population and play a critical role economically and socially. The resolution honors women from history and the present who have fought for equality and human rights. It asserts the Senate's commitment to ending discrimination and violence against women.
This resolution concurs with the Philippines' accession to the Nagoya Protocol, which aims to ensure fair sharing of benefits from genetic resources. The protocol strengthens biodiversity conservation under the Convention on Biological Diversity. It requires benefits from use of indigenous communities' genetic resources to be shared fairly based on mutual agreements. The protocol will apply to genetic resources and traditional knowledge within the scope of the Convention. Government agencies endorsed the Philippines' accession to enable sustainable biodiversity use and benefit sharing.
This resolution concurs with the ratification of an agreement between the Philippines government and PEMSEA (Partnerships in Environmental Management for the Seas of East Asia) to establish the PEMSEA Resource Facility Center in the Philippines. PEMSEA is a multi-country organization focused on sustainable development in the seas of East Asia. The agreement would make the Philippines the principal office for PEMSEA and grant privileges to ensure its effective operation. It would also benefit the Philippines economically and raise its profile internationally in coastal and marine management.

It also requires preventing unauthorized aircraft use over a state's territory. The Philippine Senate resolution endorses the protocol's ratification as it will contribute to airspace security and empower the government to prevent unlawful civil aircraft use under international law.
This resolution honors the memory of Senator Joker P. Arroyo and expresses sympathy and condolences on his passing. Arroyo was a former representative and senator who fought against martial law as a human rights lawyer. He challenged the constitutionality of Proclamation 1081 and helped defend political detainees against Marcos. As a representative and senator, he had a perfect attendance record, never used his entitlement funds, and was known for his frugality. The Senate resolution recognizes his contributions to the legal profession and public service.
This resolution expresses the Senate's view that any treaty ratified by the President of the Philippines requires concurrence from the Senate to be valid and effective. Specifically, it asserts that the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) between the Philippines and United States, which allows for increased US military presence, should have been concurred on by the Senate. The resolution calls on the Supreme Court to recognize the Senate's power to decide on the validity of treaties through concurrence.
