UNO AV ACTWL 1080 THE OBSERVER, EWorld report Gays 'qopilpt Muslimplans ttor offensive from ROBIN SMYTH in The Hague ithwarted in Philippines UNSPOILED areas of the Third World which have long been paradise for discerning homosexuals are being strewn with human wreckage as hordes of gay tourists search for exotic sex. This charge was made last week by Spartacus, an international travel guide for male homosexuals, whose tenth annual edition 600-page paperback printed in four in Amsterdam 4s now appearing in; the windows of Europe's, sex shops. In a rare piece of self-criticism a travel guide, its British editor, John D. from BRIAN EADS In Jolo Island admits some re After- had rfr ported back to gay -publica, tions in-their countries the stream of became ea mighty flood from the- United States, France and Scandinavia. Filipino families with their' small children out for a family shopping expedi tiori were confronted by the sight, homo; sexuals and' petting-small boys, in' sidewalk cafes and public Stamford Pimps' have moved in on the.

Philippine scene arid the call-boy system has become cbriiriiercialised. Discos and bars have sprung up and come the centre of the drug-traffic. Boys have been per suaded to spend their profits on drugs; 'H. Stamford says 'I personally seen some 20, delightful voung men re-diiced to 'dsreh'ct wrecks' of hiuhanity year by-selfish tourists. i In other World countries' traditional tolerance towards -jhombsexualityr is threatened by the- be havibur-v ort gay John -Stamford feels he-has a duty to speak about gay -piracy because he has an enorinous audience, among tthe, international homosexual; coni munity.

His guide lists hotels, saunias, -gay advice groups cruising grounds; London to the excepj tiori of the United StaOej; covered its own 'guides. f. Biardly. had tiie new guide appeared ''than he received phone calls' from, readers who had cancelled their Philippine, bookings and' asked where' to go instead. 3 I refused to; tell says' Stamford, who is deter-minedvto ration his guidance in future.

'There are still a few unspbiled places left in-the world? But: not even my. own friends are going, to get the names out of BRIAN An image of peace off Jolo Island, where' troops are esting after a pre-emptive; strike against Muslim rebels. GENERALS of the Philip--fPine Army's 1st Division the indefatigable guardians of Jolo' are again donning their scuba gear and frolicking in the azure waters of this centre of JWuslim secessionist rebels-lion. At the end of March they "Concluded a five-week opera-tion through the length of ithe Sulu archipelago which j. they say thwarted Moro rebel for an offensive before 'next month's Islamic conference in Islamabad.

-l The generals won't talk boirt casualties, body counts or prisoners. If I can use the analogy of a plant, said 2nd Brigade commander, Brigadier -General Salvador Mison, lunching on mangoes land roasted tuna at his -Jungle HQ, before the roots swere many and. shallow, the was abundant. We've cut some of the roots and there are fewer leaves. But the roots that remain have grovn It was here on Jolo in Sulu 600 miles south of "Manila, that troops of the -Moro National Liberation Trout captured their first provincial capital six years ago and shattered government complacency.

Most of Jolo town Is re-Jbuilt, but here and there the jwcJanarked skeleton of a TBuilding testifies to the Vehemence of the fighting ihat drove them back into the Ihills after 48 hours. The experience was the consequence "of decades of neglect, jnal-'adzninistration and exploitation by Manila. Government strategy here has been much same as in other areas. coveted by ihe-Moro Tawj Tawi group of islands to the southwest, Basilah islands to the-north-east, and die western half of the vast Mindanao island, 40 minutes' flight, away. Some 40 per cent of the armed forces are deployed in the south, supplemented by a para-military constabulary, and tens 1 of thousands of newly recruited Home Defence Force militia.

Added to this might is the promise of development, and a dash of Muslim involvement in the civil administration of two southern regions. The generals to successes. Tired dispirited rebel groups have been tempted from' the hills with offers of jobs, loans, land and cash. Talks are going on herewith a 100-man unit. Thousands of families have left 'contested' areas: for the relative security of Government-controlled The Army exploits dan-loyalties and economic rivalries to drive wedges between competing rebel bands.

A few- years ago, the generals say, there were about 3,000 armed rebels operating on Jolo. Now, rhey say, there are fewer man 1,000. It's no easy matter to check claims, but the daily realities agree with Catholic Archbishop Francisco Cruces in Zamboanga on the western tip of Mindanao.

Saudi sponsibility for unleashing a mighty -flood' of wealthy pedophiles on the Philip--pines. As a result, Stamford says' in an editorial entitled The Rape of the Third the welcome of the Filipino population for homo sexuals has been so poisoned by easy money, drugs arid broken promises of a new life -in the West for boys that, a dozen gay visitors have been murdered in the past year. Others have been mugged or robbed. The new guide contains, a warning chat gays should keep away from the Philippines unless prepared 'U to behave: with discretion and respect. LdMfle wonder that those fortunate do live in the few unspoiled, gav paradises in the world wnte: to Spartacus pleading with us to keep the gay txmrist writes Stamford.

He- recalls that the stampede to die Philippines began after he wrote a glowing repotit of his first visit there in the 1976 guide: found a place where homosexuality and bisexuality were accepted as a part, of life, where friendly, smiling, happy people gave of themselves tor the pleasure of -their foreign As OTOri' as the guide! was out, flyjng: to fire agreement signed in Tripoli in; 1977, are anything more than a pretence. They have no legislative power arid little, moneytb spend. Since' the Second War Muslims have become a troops are lectured on respect for local customs arid culture. But Jolo remains 95 per cent Muslim and the troops come1 from the Christian north. The hostility is 'almost, palpable.

i Around Jolo town the Army has a ring of ambuscades to intercept couriers carrying food, medicine, arms and ammunition to the rebels. About once a week an Army, patrol somewhere is ambushed.
