フィリピン人が規律を求めるようになった背景には、まず2000年代中頃から続く経済成長がある。莫大な貧富の差は改善しなくとも、多くの人々が不法な生活基盤や政治家のばら撒きに依存せずとも暮らしていけるようになった。かつて政治家は、国民に「豊かさ」を約束した。しかし2016年選挙では、資源の配分を強調したジェジョマール・ビナイは惨敗し、厳格な「規律」を掲げ、犯罪者を殺すと宣言したドゥテルテが圧勝した。社会が豊かになったからこそ、人々は「規律」を支持できるようになったのだ。
こうした現象は、地方政治でも生じている。2019年マニラ市長に当選したイスコ・モレノは、「規律」の名もとに露天商を一掃して道路の混雑を解消し、拍手喝采を浴びた。逆に、今年5月ジンゴイ・エストラダ元上院議員が、大量のバグース（魚）を住民に配っていたところ、防疫違反で逮捕された。貧困層への「ばら撒き」によって、50年近くサン・フアン市を支配し、大統領職まで射止めたエストラダ家も、「規律」の時代には見る影もない。
Thank you for your continued support of Davao’s portal site “Davaotchi”. “Davaotchi” is an information portal about Davao that has been running for about seven and a half years since September 2016 with the aim of conveying the charms of Davao to Japanese people in Japanese and making them more aware of Davao. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have gained a certain amount of recognition, such as being featured in a magazine, and many people have started to hear the term “Dabaotchi”. On the other hand, we have prioritized the mission of conveying the charms of Davao to as many Japanese people as possible, so there is almost no profitability, and we have allocated the profits generated from other businesses to the site management, but we have no plans for the future. As a result of careful consideration of scalability and development, Davaotchi has decided to recruit supporters who can support Davaotchi in order to better manage the site. We considered charging for the site or introducing a subscription plan, but we wanted to deliver information about Davao to as many people as possible, so we decided to simply ask for support from Davaochi fans first. You can support us using PayPal or credit card (debit card) below. We look forward to your cooperation. See more news articles
