Globalization and its accompanying processes point to a paradigm about
development (Pongsapich, 2003). Globalization is built on the belief that
development can be achieved through rapid economic growth, made possible because of economic integration (Cavanagh, Mander & IFG, 2004). As a growth- oriented model of development, it looks into GDP as indicator of success.

Competing Development Paradigms. A development paradigm is an idea of
prescribed path to attain development through certain set of activities, according to a defined vision (Bellb, 2011). Below is a quote from Datu Kaylo Bontulan, a Manobo leader. He talks about a proposed business investment in their ancestral land that will displace indigenous communities.
"If this (investment) happens, we cannot cultivate our lands anymore. We
cannot grow local crops on our ancestral domain. They will only force us to evacuate and use the military who will not think to kill us twice if we stop their project."
Salugpongan To Tanu lgkanugon, Datu Koylo Bontulan, Talaingod (Velez, 2018)
What are your thoughts regarding two competing paradigms of development —development by building business in the ancestral land and development from the point of view of indigenous people?
