Fraternal Order In The Philippines

The Fraternal Order or the fraternity has been part of the Philippine institutions since the end of Filipino-American War, but the first ever brotherhood that is recorded in history is the KKK or simply as the Katipunan led by Andres Bonifacio. Hazing has been also part of some institutions in the Philippines when the Fraternal Order was introduce, some of these institutions are the universities, colleges, and police/military academies. In those times, fraternities care and protect their new members and in the initiations even if the initiation is deadly. Since then, fraternities were not the same again because of the continuing proliferation of fraternity hazing activities, that has caused senseless deaths to many victims, it is imperative

Sometimes the only solution to an unresolved conflict of both sides is just don’t by their appearance and according to Iska Dalangin, the National Chairperson of the Student Council of the Philippines (July 1,2014) stated the “fraternities and sororities are really honor societies. Just like normal organization, it’s just a group who have beliefs and principles, and common goals they want to achieve. But the problem is their initiation rites and how they recruit. There are a lot of honor societies who are not this extreme.” In this case, that not all groups should be blamed but blame those groups who violate the law. To support this, according to lawyer Theodore Villanueva, that all fraternities, sororities and other organizations should be registered and those groups that are not registered or they are underground groups will
