Battle of Manila and other true stories of World War IIBy Linda B. Bolido

THE PHILIPPINE Vet-erans Bank and thePhilippine Daily In-quirer announced re-cently the start of the2010 World War IITrue Stories Contest.

Now on its secondyear, the competitionaims to encouragehigh school studentsall over the country todiscover little-knownstories about the warfrom people who

were witnesses to oneof the most memo-rable episodes inPhilippine history

when Filipinosei-ther as fighters orplain citizensdis-played extraordinary

valor, selflessness andpatriotism.

The 2010 competi-tion is being launchedin February becausethe month marks animportant milestonein the struggle to re-take the Philippinesfrom the occupyingforces of JapantheBattle for Manila.

American forces fi-nally entered Manilaabout 6 p.m. on Feb.

3, 1945, having made

their way into the city

from Mindoro, whereGen. DouglasMacArthur returnedand landed in Decem-ber 1944, and fromLingayen Gulf, whereother landings fol-lowed.

They were met bya sparse crowd be-cause, according tohistorian Teodoro Ag-oncillo, most of the

Filipinos stayed in-

doors for fear of

Japanese atrocity.But as a tank unit

liberated Americanand Allied soldiersimprisoned at theUniversity of SantoTomas campus, theevening resounded

with jubilant singingof God Bless Ameri-ca, followed by theStar Spangled Ban-ner. (The Japanese

had converted some

of the schools in thecity into garrisons.)Most destructive

The Battle ofManila is consideredas the most destruc-tive Allied engage-ment in Asia duringWWII, and is secondonly to Warsaw,Poland, in the entire

world.The US forces lost

about a thousandmen, while theJapanese lost 12,000soldiers. But thedeath toll among Fil-ipino civilians wasmuch higher, in factcomparable to the Hi-roshima bombing.Some 100,000 Fil-ipinos in the Manilahostilities, and yet on-ly a handful recallthis tragedy every

year on Feb. 3themembers of Memo-rare 1945.

The fierce fighting,including heavy ar-tillery fire from bothcamps, utterly de-stroyed Manila which,before the war, wasknown as the Pearlof the Orient, withits magnificent build-ings, schools, church-

es with unique archi-

tectural designs andcountless cultural art-works and literature.

After the battle,only a few buildingsremained intact.

Among those de-stroyed were the Leg-islative Building, Na-tional Museum andstructures within thehistoric Walled City ofIntramuros.

War historians saidthe Allied forces hadpresumed the battlefor Manila would bequick.

But the Japaneseforces in the cityfought fiercely. Theyengaged in house-to-house struggles withthe American soldiersand Filipino guerril-las. Instead of surren-

dering, manyJapanese fought tothe death, some vent-ing their anger onciviliansraping

women, bayonetingbabies, killing the el-derly and committingother acts of brutality.

There must be anuntold number oftrue stories out therethat happened duringthe Massacre inManila alone.

Those accountsand others that oc-curred in others partsof the country duringthe Second WorldWar are precisely

what the PhilippineVeterans Bank wishesto gather through the2010 WWII True Sto-ries Contest.

The contest is opento all Filipino stu-dents 13 to 18 yearsof age attending pub-lic or private highschools in the Philip-pines.

History and/or En-glish teachers are en-couraged to guidestudents interested inparticipating in thecontest. The endors-ing teachers of the

winning students willbe awarded P5,000 inPVB savings accounteach.

Deadline for sub-mission of entries is 4p.m. on March 16,2010.

No troublespoofing Marlene

Kris used to travel the world asa missionary. Now hes globetrot-ting as he spreads his music. Hesthe onlyAmerican Idol whos mar-ried.

Doesnt his wife Katy getjealous of his fans? Not at all,he says. She keeps me sane.Without her, I would be a

wreck.He confessed that he never ex-

pected to win AIand that hecouldnt wait for the competitionto end so that he could go back tohis normal life. But after baggingthe title, his world is now far from

what it used to be.The three gorgeous brothers

who comprise Boyce Avenue saidthey uploaded their acoustic num-bers on YouTube just for the heckof it and they got the biggest sur-prise of their lives when they be-came an Internet sensation.

They chose to call them-selves Boyce Avenue because its

the name of the street theygrew up on.

The cool Jabbawockeezdancers swear that the thoughtof disbanding in the future isunthinkable because they nolonger consider themselves justas a dance group but as a fami-ly.

Happy PokwangPokwang is not wary at all

that her spoofing Marlene

Aguilar may get her in trouble.So far wala pa namang nag-pro-protesta, she says, laugh-ing. Pag na meet ko si Mar-lene, pasasalamatan ko siya kasibinigyan nya ako ng bagongcharacter to impersonate.

Pokey is also happy aboutanother character, Lovely, thatshe portrays in ABS-CBNs YourSong Presents: Feb-Ibig! everySunday after ASAP. Its the sto-ry of a woman whose heart hasbecome jaded because she al-

ways ends up getting hurt.

In real life, Pokey says thatshe will never let money orfame take over her heart. Tamana protektahan ang pera atkatanyagan, she explains.Pero hindi dapat umabot sapunto na makalimutan mo nangumibig.

How does she feel that PBBhousemate Melai is beinggroomed to be the next Pok-

wang? Im flattered, she says.Id be willing to do a project

with her. Sayang ang raket(laughs).

Does she find Melai funny?Nakakaaliw siya, she quips.Pag nag-meet kami, bibigyanko siya ng pointers. Mahirapmagbigay ng todo-todo na com-ment about her. Baka ma-misin-terpret ako.

Watch out for the wackycombination of MelaWang.

Gentleman RonaldIm glad that Channel Vs top

honcho Ronald Singson wentout of his way to clarify what I

wrote in my previous columnabout him having me banned atthe press con of the foreignartists I mentioned abovebe-cause he didnt exactly like

what I wrote about him andLovi Poe.

It turned out to be a case ofmiscommunication. Our com-mon friend, Channel V exec JM

Rodriguez, intervened soRonald and I were finally ableto meet at Shangri-La Edsa afterthe press con.

Being the true gentlemanthat he is, he apologized. Ithought he would get mad be-cause of the revealing pics ofLovi and him that I provided,but he didnt.

I respect your opinion asmuch as anybody elses, hesays. Lovi and I are not hidingour relationship but neither are

we announcing it.

em matureYOUNG actress ShainaMagdayao, who recentlybroke up with herboyfriend, actor JohnPratts, has a practical expla-nation for why she prefersmature men to boys.

At a very young age, Iwas already given many re-sponsibilities. I dont havetime to share a boys fasci-

nation with teenage stuff.Id like to be able to talk tothe person Im with aboutlife, not just about mun-dane and immature things,Shaina told INQUIRER Enter-tainment.

In January, Shaina con-firmed her breakup withJohn, but declined to di-

vulge the reason. The ac-tress, however, maintainedthere was no third party

involved, despite rumorsthat John was dating anoth-er actress, Denise Laurel.

We asked Shaina whyshe prefers the New Mooncharacter Edward Cullen toJacob Black.

I want to be able tolook up to the person Im

with. With Edward [types],I feel I can discuss so manythings. I find Edward veryinteresting. I want to be

with a partner who is like

him. Marinel R. Cruz

MVP justifiesGame 4 walkoutBy Cedelf P. Tupas

IT was the right decision underthe circumstances.

This was the explanation byTalk N Text team owner andSamahang Basketbol ng Pilipi-nas president Manny V.Pangilinan last night of theGame 4 walkout by theTropang Texters Wednesdaythat marred their quarterfinalseries with the Barangay Gine-bra Gin Kings.

The walkout allowed the

Kings to win by forfeiture andtie the best-of-five series at 2-allbefore Ginebra clinched a semi-final slot in the KFC PBA Philip-pine Cup with a hard-fought

win Sunday.Although Pangilinan did not

eleborate on the exact reasonfor the walkout, he neverthelesscongratulated the Gin Kings fora well-deserved march to thesemifinals against Alaska.
