  1. SALIKA is an ACTIVE organization composed of ACTIVE members. It is a GREEN ACTIVIST organization of members promoting GREEN ACTIVISM by word and by deed...

 

Let's build and continually expand the......

NEEDED BROAD MOVEMENT FOR
'GREEN ACTIVISM'

The historic PEOPLE POWER  that  played the most crucial role in toppling the despotic regime in 1986 did not emerge out of nowhere. It was built up painstakingly by the number of ACTIVISTS gradually growing thru all those 14 years of dictatorship, not in just the last three years, much less in just the last four days. From a mere handful of silent heroes in 1972, the ranks of the ACTIVISTS swelled to push the political opposition to boycott and effectively frustrate the dictator’s sham polls in 1981; two years later, the multitudes were ready to publicly mourn the martyrdom of Ninoy Aquino at the scale of broad initiative, creativity and defiance they never know before that they could mount.  By 1986, the ACTIVISTS, flying flags of various colors, were ready to depose Marcos.

Those millions upon millions of ACTIVISTS knew well enough where their own stakes lay, and they did not hesitate to spend their own time, talent and resources to give the anti-dictatorship effort their full personal and collective capabilities.  The green cause has had all the reason to turn ‘greener with envy.’ The cause of effective environmental conservation and survival, a cause much more consequential to our lives and the lives of our children than who still occupies Malacañang, has never had even half the magnitude of that mass following, of that popular will power and energy.  We don’t see that anymore.

BUT WE KNOW THAT SUCH ENERGY IS THERE, HIDDEN IN THE VISIBLE LEVELS OF APATHY AND PASSIVITY.   WE JUST HAVE TO AWAKEN THE WILL!   AND WE WILL!

SALI KA! now commits to contribute its work to revive this strong culture of GREEN ACTIVISM to combat apathy and passivity.  

We have even changed our name to SanibLakas ng mga Aktibong Lingkod ng Inang Kalikasan to spread this call, and to be this call, to all: ‘SALI KA!’  

We commit to work on developing a well-rounded green education that would cover the informational, analytical, methodological and attitudinal aspects

SALI KA! will go 'all hands on deck' on this task.  By word and by deed, we will help the people stand up and overcome!

  2. SALIKA is an organization composed of ACTIVE STAKEHOLDERS, known in Filipino as "Aktibong May-taya. These are people who are actively serving Mother Nature not really because they are good and generous, but mainly out of wisdom and the knowledge that the stakeholders are rightfully the most concerned about the success of these conservation efforts and are mrightfully the most dependable in pursuing these efforts. Common sense and the minimum of human ethics dictate so.

  3. SALIKA is  composed of ACTIVE STAKEHOLDERS,  or "Aktibong May-taya, who are building up their own steadfastness as such. Determination is crucial in this process. So is the full utilization of all appropriate means and tools to pursue the cause, if these are already available, or the creation of new means and tools if these do not yet exist.

 a. You lack the knowledge that should be shared with other people? Study intently the reading materials being created for all of us, whether on paper or on the internet,  plus the fora and seminars that we conduct. Invite them to attend our Kamayan Forum and/or to read its KFJournal.

b. You lack in self-confidence in explaining things alone? Ask to be accompanied and helped; start with one-on-one sessions.

c. You lack time to spare?  Be more systematic in scheduling things you really want to do and those you just want to do; revisit your priorities. For one who really wants to do something, there are many ways' got one who is reluctant, the excuses abound! The backpage ad of one issue of Kamayan Forum Journal puts it this way: 

..

 

 

From the simplest ham- mer to the best-endowed Swiss knife, to the latest in information and com- munication technology, tools are moved and used by people who are motiv- ated to turn wishes into

purposes and work plans.

And success.

It may be for making your- self and others happy. It may be for making your- self and your loved-ones survive.

We don't really need any  tools to hibernate, to vegetate! 

We only need tools when we have the WILL POWER to work!

  4. SALIKA is  composed of ACTIVE STAKEHOLDERS,   who are self-replicating, recruiting others who would each recruit more and more others to be active stakeholders for the same cause.

          This is how the KF Journal Editorial put it ng July 2007:

WE CAN’T afford to maintain the current rate of dev- elopment of the green movement, more specifically of its snail-paced expansion.  We need to motivate the multitudes across the archipelago into mobilizing themselves as active stakeholders within and outside our parameters of organized action.

We have said exactly this in our editorial last month in the Kamayan Forum Journal. And we see a big need to repeat it, and this: “Let each member of each green organization go out of her/his comfort zone and undertake to motivate at least a dozen of her/his own family members, neighbors, friends and workmates to mobilize themselves to be active stakeholders and to mobilize, in turn, a dozen or so each.  It can be done.  It has to be done.

We cannot affo rd to wallow in defeatist hesitation on this! We have to melt the boundaries between the acknowledged environmental activists and the rest of the population and build bridges of effective

communication between these widely disproportionate sets of people.” Let us now stare at the gap we have to breach between the hundreds or thousands of committed environmental activists and the rest of the Filipino people numbering in their dozens of millions. These are the consciousness and the ethical values gap.

We have been straining our resources to address the information component of the consciousness gap. We have been holding activities and issuing primers and press releases to get our information printed and broadcast by the mass media and we have had reason to celebrate great and modest successes.

But the effects of the mass media, although very very important, have had to be filter through the people’s sphere of interest so that they would spot, read and finish the news reports that do get into the newspapers they actually buy, so that they would listen with interest and full attention to items aired on radio and television about our environmental stands and actions.

  5. SALIKA is  composed of ACTIVE STAKEHOLDERS,  or "Aktibong May-taya, who are synergizing among themselves, building up among themselves the close teamworks, the synergy that magnifies combined the power of separate individuals.

. 

The first challenge to SALIKA members who intend to synergize with one another is to stay connected, literally, and spiritually ("in spirit," really!). The complete system is now in place to enable all members to stay connected: there is face-to-face conversation, and a whole lot more of channels developed by modern technology: landline and mobile phones. texting, e-mailing, the social networks (facebook, friendster, etc.) and, yes, the good old post office is still there, selling stamps. Only those who do not want to stay connected can cut off themselves from other SALIKA members. 

 

Teamwork is the second challenge. In everyday language, "synergy" and the scientific and spiritual principle of "synergism" translate into teamwork and harmony. Efficient teamwork and exhilirating harmony.

.   Magsanib-lakas, Pilipinas!   

MAGSANIB-LAKAS, PILIPINAS!  Sa ganitong pagsasanib-sanib ng kahit magkakaibang mga kakayahan at gawain, basta't nagkakaisa sa layunin, nagsasalimbayan sa mga kilos, at may tinatanaw na pagsasalo at makatarungang pagbabahagian sa kakamtin, ang ibubunga pa rin ay paggaan ng gawain at pagdami pa nga ng mga mapapala.

Di ba't ganito nga ang dakilang Bayanihan, na umiral nang libu-libong taon sa ating pagtutulungan at pagmamahalan?

MATAGAL NA NATING PANAWAGAN ITO, laluna't dahan-dahang humina ang diwa ng Bayanihan sa ating mga pamayanan magmulang ang mga iyon ay simulang pagharian ng mga nanakop na dayuhan (kaiba sa naunang mga dayuhang patas na nakipagkalakalan). Namemorya nating "May Lakas sa Pagkakaisa" ngunit nalimutan nating ang totoo'y may pinaiibayong lakas sa pagkakaisa ng mga may sari-sariling lakas na kusang iniaambag sa sama-samang kakayahan ng kabuuan.

.'Nasa mga Aktibong May-tayâ ang pag-asa...

NASA MGA AKTIBONG MAY-TAYA ang Pag-asa ng Bansa. Kung buhay pa ba si Rizal ay tatalikuran na nga kaya niya ang anumang pag-asa ng bayan  na sinabi niya noon na "nasa kabataan"? Hindi naman!  Kung ang mga mga kabataan ay aktibong may-taya sa paglaya at pagkamit ng ginhawa ng ating mga pamayanan at mamamayan, o kung sa mga suliranin ng bayan ay aktibo sa paglutas sa halip na pag-iwas kahit mga nakakatanda man, sila at tayo ay nagbibigay ng tunay na pag-asa sa ating Inang Bayang Magiliw.

ANG KAILANGAN NG ATING KALIKASAN, kabuhayan, kaligtasan, kapakanan, ay maraming magkakasanib na kilos ng milyun-milyon nating mga Aktibong May-taya. Wala tayong mapanghahawakan kung walang higpit ang ating pagtangan, kung walang gasgas sa ating mga palad; walang mananatiling malusog sa ating buhay na tahanang kalikasan kung walang magpapatigil sa nagaganap na pamiminsala sa ngalan ng salapi at pagwawalang-bahala. Ang kapinsalaan ay dugtung-dugtong kaya't mahigpit ding magkakaugnay ang dapat mga galaw ng mga AkMa!  Kung marami ang patuloy na iiwas sa pananagutan, wala sa ating makakaligtas!

PATATAGIN, PARAMIHIN, MAHIGPIT NA PAG-UGNAYIN ang mga Aktibong May-taya! Kung tunay na aktibo, bahagi ng pagsisikap ang pagpapakatatag sa kalinawan ng isip at katatagan ng determinasyon, at sa tatag lamang ng determinasyon maisusulong nang totohanan ang mga pagsisikap, at marami tayong maiisip na paraan sa halip na pagdadahilan. Sino ang makapagpaparami ng mga AkMa?  Ang mga AkMa mismo ay walang-sawang nag-aaral upang makayanan na nila ang magpaliwanag, upang dumami ang mga kumikilos nang matagumpay, at upang dumami pa nang ibayo ang mga nagpapaliwanag at nagpapatatag sa iba.  Kung hindi naman mahigpit na nag-uunayan ang mga Aktibong May-taya, sayang na nga ang mabubuo sana nilang 'teamworking' o pagtutulungan, maaari pang magkaroon ng kumpitensya, salungatan at siraan sa kanilang hanay,
Patatagin, Paramihin at Mahigpit na Pag-ugnayin ang mga Aktibong May-taya sa Kapakanan ng Ating Bansa! !      MagSanib-Lakas, Pilipinas!

ANG PAMAYANANG SANIBLAKAS NG PILIPINAS ay isang mahigpit na bukluran ng mga nagmamalasakit sa kapananan ng kasalukyan at susunod pang mga henerasyon ng mga Pilipino, at malinaw nilang ipinakikita ang malaking malasakit na ito sa pamamagitan ng kanilang positibong ikinikilos sa araw-awaw.  Sinisikap ng bawat kaanib na sahahan ng Pamayanang ito na ang kani-kanilang samahan mismo ay maging buhay na mga paaralan ng aktibo at epektibong pagtulong sa taongbayan, sa iba-ibang larangan na kani-kanilang pinagtutuunan, na kayanin ng mga tao ang sama-samang pag-aangking-lakas upang ang sambayanan ay dahan-dahan ngunit matatag nang makabangon sa kasalukuyang mga kalagayan ng kawalan ng lakas, kawalan ng katarungan, kawalan ng malasakitan, at kawalang-pag-asa.  Ang Pamayanang SanibLakas ng Pilipinas, na pinagsasamahan ng pormalisado at di-pormalisadong mga bagagi nito, ay isang malawak na kilusan para sa ganap na pagpapakatao at pakikipagkapwa-tao.
