OPPE, Dick -
Reishandboek Filipijnen, uitg.: Elmar (juni 2017),
ISBN 9789038925622, paperback, 320 blz., €19,95
IN HERDRUK; NIEUWE EDITIE VERWACHT OKT. 2024
Praktische en culturele reisgids met alle bezienswaardigheden. Het Reishandboek Filipijnen beschrijft naast de bezienswaardigheden van dit bijzondere land ook praktische informatie. Deze reisgids laat je kennismaken met de historie, de flora en de fauna van de Filipijnen. De gids bevat veel praktische tips over het dagelijks leven in de Filipijnen en over het bezoeken van de verschillende eilanden. Dit Reishandboek kan je gebruiken als leidraad bij je voorbereidingen van een onvergetelijke reis. Het Reishandboek Filipijnen, geschreven door een Nederlandse auteur, is een must-have voor elke reiziger die interesse heeft in de Filipijnen.
De Filipijnse archipel omvat circa 7100 eilanden en eilandjes, waarvan slechts een kwart permanent wordt bewoond. Hoewel de Filipijnen al sinds het begin van de jaartelling een belangrijke schakel vormen in de handel en de zeevaart tussen China en de Indische archipel, is het land nog maar weinig ontwikkeld. De reiziger vindt er behalve een aangenaam klimaat en een boeiende flora een verbazingwekkend mooie onderwaterwereld. Duik-en dolfijnexcursies zijn daardoor erg populair. Ook de cultuurminnende reiziger en de liefhebber van een rustige strandvakantie komen er ruimschoots aan hun trekken.

OLIN-JONES, Graham & Yvonne Colin-Jones -
Philippines - Culture Smart! The Essential Guide to Customs & Culture, uitg.: Kuperard (2021),
ISBN 9781787022843, paperback, formaat
171x108x13mm, 168 blz., €14,95
The Philippines, a scattered archipelago of seven thousand islands, appears to be one of the most Westernised countries in Asia. However, the realities of Filipino life are complex, and not immediately evident to the foreign visitor; the façade of the English language does not run deep.
The Philippines has a unique colonial history: it was governed by Spain for over three hundred years and by the United States for fifty. The majority of Filipinos are Roman Catholics, the government is democratically elected, and freedom of speech and education are highly valued.
Culture Smart! Philippines looks at the social, economic, and political issues the country faces. Despite the material disadvantages that much of the population faces, the Filipino people show an amazing resilience. They are warm, charming, and welcoming, and beyond the chaotic traffic jams and heat of Manila there is much to enjoy and appreciate.
Culture Smart! Philippines also includes among its pages case studies, true stories, and advice on what to expect and how to behave in many different situations. First-time visitors and long-term foreign workers will find an abundance of practical information and key insights into Filipino life that will enable them to make the very most of their time in this unique and intriguing country.

ENNEDY, Robert & Pedro C. Gonzales, Edward Dickinson, Hector C. Miranda, Jr, and Timothy H. Fisher -
A Guide to the Birds of the Philippines [Oxford Ornithology Series], uitg.: Oxford University Press (sept.2019),
ISBN 9780198546689, paperback, 392 blz., bevat 72 kleurenplaten, vele kaarten en lijntekeningen, €69,95
A Guide to the Birds of the Philippines is the first and only guide that covers all 572 species of birds known to occur within the 7,100 islands that make up the Philippines. The Philippine avifauna includes some 170 endemics - species that are not found anywhere else in the world - and is thus of interest to avid birders around the world. Many of these species are also endangered, due to the high levels of habitat destruction in the Philippine forest, and this book is also urgently needed by conservation workers in the region. The Guide is illustrated by 72 specially painted colour plates that show all but the three vagrant species recently recorded there. Its text gives detailed information about the plumage, voice, range, distribution, status, habitat, life history and behaviour of the birds and is accompanied by distribution maps for all the species described. The expert team of authors and artists includes two prominent Philippine ornithologists, and has combined field experience summing to over 100 years. This book clearly will be the standard for Philippine Ornithology for many years to come.

RNADO, Janet -
Sprachführer Tagalog / Filipino - Wort für Wort, uitg.: Reise Know-How (3e ed.2012),
ISBN 9783894163389, pocketformaat, 144 blz., €9,95
Cebuano ist die Spache der südlichen Philippinen, von Cebu, Mindanao und den Visayas. Die Nationalsprache ist zwar Tagalog (siehe Kauderwelsch Band Nr. 3) - aber gesprochen wird sie nur im Norden, z. B. auf Luzon und Palawan. Im Süden ist dieser Sprechführer nach dem bewährten Kauderwelsch-Rezept jedoch unverzichtbar, wenn Sie sich mit den Menschen im Alltag unterhalten wollen.
Die Grammatik der jeweiligen Sprache wird in einfachen Worten so weit erklärt, dass man ohne viel Paukerei mit dem Sprechen beginnen kann, wenn auch nicht gerade druckreif.- Alle Beispielsätze werden doppelt ins Deutsche übertragen: zum einen Wort-für-Wort, zum anderen in 'ordentliches' Hochdeutsch. So wird das fremde Sprachsystem sehr gut durchschaubar. Denn in einer Fremdsprache unterscheiden sich z. B. Grammatik und Ausdrucksweise recht stark vom Deutschen. Mithilfe der Wort-für-Wort-Übersetzung kann man selbst als Anfänger schnell einzelne Vokabeln in einem Satz austauschen.
Kauderwelsch-Sprachführer sind viel mehr als ein klassisches Lehrbuch. Sie vereinen Sprachführer, Reiseführer und Wörterbuch in einem! Wenn Sie ein wenig Zeit investieren und einige Vokabeln lernen, werden Sie mit ihrer Hilfe auf Reisen schon nach kurzer Zeit Informationen bekommen und Erfahrungen machen, die 'sprachstummen' Reisenden verborgen bleiben.
