 Philippines - Local Government
By the 1990s, Philippine nationalism had not fully penetrated two regions of the country inhabited by national minorities: the Muslim parts of Mindanao and the tribal highlands of northern Luzon.
The Constitution mandates that the state "shall ensure the autonomy of local governments," but it also says that the president "shall exercise general supervision over local governments." The contradiction was usually resolved in favor of the center.
The grievances of tribal groups, such as the Ifugao and Igorot, in northern Luzon were of more recent origin, having been stoked by ill-considered Marcos administration dam-building schemes that entailed flooding valleys in the northern Luzon cordillera where the tribal groups lived.

Moreover, other Asian governments, such as that of the Philippines, have readily accepted that the international legal concept of “indigenous” does apply to their own politically marginalized ethnic groups, which are now officially referred to as “indigenous peoples” or “indigenous cultural communities”.
In the Pacific islands and the Philippines, customary land rights are considered to confer rights equivalent to ownership, but in Indonesia and Malaysia customary tenures are considered to confer weaker rights similar to usufructs.
Because land and natural resources are considered alienable, communal tenures in Asia have been prone to mismanagement, owing to a lack of clarity regarding who makes decisions in the name of the larger group.

 Philippines: Tribal activist shot dead by government militia
The term "tribal peoples" is commonly used in the Philippines to describe the more than 40 ethno-linguistic groups who generally live in isolated upland areas and whose cultures have been relatively less influenced than those of lowland populations by three centuries of Spanish colonialism and half a century of American rule.
It calls on the Philippine Government to conduct an immediate, thorough and impartial investigation of the killing and to bring the suspected perpetrators promptly to justice.
Members of tribal communities in the Philippines have become victims of human rights violations primarily because of the political and economic significance of the land which they inhabit.

 BIBAK San Diego
These mountains were formerly called the Mountain Province, and was divided into five sub-provinces namely Benguet, Ifugao, Bontoc, Apayao, and Kalinga.
Perhaps it is the similarities of their cultures, or just the fact that they are all part of the cultural minorities of the Philippines that have bonded these "people of the mountains" to form an organization called BIBAK.
As simple as it is, taking the first letters of each sub-province, did not only make sure that this organization represents all the people of this large province, but it also points to a fact that each province and it's people complement each other.
