Collado Deputy Administrator Socorro D. Abejo Director III, Household Statistics Department ISSN 0117-1453 FOREWORD The 2010 Census of Population and Housing (2010 CPH) Report No. 1 is one of several publications designed to disseminate the results of the 2010 CPH. This report presents the population by province, city or municipality and barangay based on the 2010 CPH. This information will be useful for the formulation of the social and economic development policies, plans and programs of the Government. These are also important for purposes of the calculation of Internal Revenue Allocation, determination of number of congressional districts, and creation or conversion of various administrative geographic units. The 2010 CPH is the 13th census of population and the 6th census of housing that was conducted in the country since the first census undertaken in 1903. It was designed to take an inventory of the total population and housing units in the country and collect information about their characteristics as of the reference period May 1, 2010. The 2010 CPH data were gathered through house-to-house visit and interview of a responsible member of every household visited. The data processing of the results of the 2010 CPH utilized a combination of Optical Mark Reader (OMR) technology and data encoding. The 2010 CPH results on population counts underwent careful evaluation for reasonableness and consistency with expected demographic patterns and trends in accordance with evaluation procedures of international standards. Unusual changes and deviations of 2010 CPH population counts and related indicators from expected patterns and trends were field-verified. The successful completion of the 2010 CPH would not have been possible without the unwavering support and services rendered by the local and national officials, government and private agencies, media, and non-government organizations. We acknowledge with gratitude the census coordinating boards at the national, regional, provincial, city, and municipal levels in ensuring agency logistic support and assistance, the dedication of teachers from the Department of Education, the hired census personnel, and our very own NSO personnel who acted as census enumerators and supervisors, and the cooperation of the general populace. The NSO extends its deep appreciation of their support to this important undertaking. CARMELITA N.

This is the 13th census of population and the 6th census of housing undertaken in the country. Like the previous censuses conducted by the office, the 2010 CPH is designed to take an inventory of the total population and housing units in the Philippines and to collect information about their characteristics. Content and Coverage of this Report In this report, the population counts by province, city/municipality and barangay are presented. These population counts were declared official for all purposes by His Excellency President Benigno S. Aquino III under Proclamation No. 362 dated March 30, 2012. Authority to Conduct the 2010 CPH Commonwealth Act (CA) No. 591, approved on August 19, 1940, authorized the then Bureau of the Census and Statistics (now the National Statistics Office or NSO) to collect by enumeration, sampling or other methods, statistics and other information concerning the population and to conduct, for statistical purposes, investigations and studies of social and economic conditions in the country, among others (Section 2 of CA No. 591). Batas Pambansa Blg. 72, approved on June 11, 1980, further accorded the NSO the authority to conduct population censuses every ten years beginning in 1980, without prejudice to the undertaking of special censuses on agriculture, industry, commerce, housing, and other sectors as may be approved by the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA). Executive Order (EO) No. 121, otherwise known as the Reorganization Act of the Philippine Statistical System, which was issued on January 30, 1987, declared that the NSO shall be the major statistical agency responsible for generating general purpose statistics and for undertaking such censuses and surveys as may be designated by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) (Section 9 of EO No. 121). Presidential Proclamation No. 2028 “Declaring May 2010 as National Census Month” enjoined all departments and other government agencies, including government-owned and controlled corporations, as well as LGUs, to implement and Explanatory Note 2010 Census of Population and Housing execute the operational plans, directives, and orders of the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB), through the NSO, relative to this Proclamation. Coordination for the 2010 CPH Batas Pambansa Blg. 72 provides that the National Census Coordinating Board (NCCB) at the national level, and local boards at the regional, provincial, city, and municipal levels shall be created to ensure the successful conduct of the census. For the 2010 CPH, the NSCB was designated as the NCCB pursuant to NSCB’s mandated function specified in Executive Order No. 121 to establish appropriate mechanisms for statistical coordination at the different geographic levels. The Director General of NEDA was the Chairperson of the NCCB, and the Secretaries from other Departments were the Members. The NSO Administrator, who served as the Executive Officer of the NCCB, was mandated to formulate and execute plans for the 2010 CPH. In the field, the NSO Regional Director (RD) was the Executive Officer of the Regional Census Coordinating Board (RCCB). He/she was responsible for the coordination, monitoring, and supervision of the census operations in all provinces within the region. The RCCB was chaired by the Regional Director of the NEDA. The Regional Director of the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) served as the Vice Chairperson. The members were the heads of the following: Regional Development Council, National Statistics Coordination Board, Department of Agrarian Reform, Department of Agriculture, Department of Education (DepEd), Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Department of Finance, Department of Foreign Affairs, Department of Justice, Department of Labor and Employment, Department of National Defense, Department of Public Works and Highways, Department of Social Welfare and Development, Department of Trade and Industry, Department of Transportation and Communications, Department of Tourism, Department of Science and Technology, Department of Health, Commission on Population, National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP), and Office of Muslim Affairs.

  • Inclusion and Cultural Preservation for the Ifugao People
    421 Journal of Southeast Asian Human Rights, Vol.2 No. 2 December 2018. pp. 421-447 doi: 10.19184/jseahr.v2i2.8232 © University of Jember & Indonesian Consortium for Human Rights Lecturers Inclusion and Cultural Preservation for the Ifugao People Ellisiah U. Jocson Managing Director, OneLife Foundation Inc. (OLFI), M.A.Ed Candidate, University of the Philippines, Diliman Abstract This study seeks to offer insight into the paradox between two ideologies that are currently being promoted in Philippine society and identify the relationship of both towards the indigenous community of the Ifugao in the country. Inclusion is a growing trend in many areas, such as education, business, and development. However, there is ambiguity in terms of educating and promoting inclusion for indigenous groups, particularly in the Philippines. Mandates to promote cultural preservation also present limits to the ability of indigenous people to partake in the cultures of mainstream society. The Ifugao, together with other indigenous tribes in the Philippines, are at a state of disadvantage due to the discrepancies between the rights that they receive relative to the more urbanized areas of the country. The desire to preserve the Ifugao culture and to become inclusive in delivering equal rights and services create divided vantages that seem to present a rift and dilemma deciding which ideology to promulgate. Apart from these imbalances, the stance of the Ifugao regarding this matter is unclear, particularly if they observe and follow a central principle. Given that the notion of inclusion is to accommodate everyone regardless of “race, gender, disability, ethnicity, social class, and religion,” it is highly imperative to provide clarity to this issue and identify what actions to take.

  • Over Land and Over Sea: Domestic Trade Frictions in the Philippines – Online Appendix
    ONLINE APPENDIX Over Land and Over Sea: Domestic Trade Frictions in the Philippines Eugenia Go 28 February 2020 A.1. DATA 1. Maritime Trade by Origin and Destination The analysis is limited to a set of agricultural commodities corresponding to 101,159 monthly flows. About 5% of these exhibit highly improbable derived unit values suggesting encoding errors. More formally, provincial retail and farm gate prices are used as upper and lower bounds of unit values to check for outliers. In such cases, more weight is given to the volume record as advised by the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), and values were adjusted according to the average unit price of the exports from the port of the nearest available month before and after the outlier observation. 2. Interprovince Land Trade Interprovince land trade flows were derived using Marketing Cost Structure Studies prepared by the Bureau of Agricultural Statistics for a number of products in selected years. These studies identify the main supply and destination provinces for certain commodities. The difference between production and consumption of a supply province is assumed to be the amount available for export to demand provinces. The derivation of imports of a demand province is straightforward when an importing province only has one source province. In cases where a demand province sources from multiple suppliers, such as the case of the National Capital Region (NCR), the supplying provinces are weighted according to the sample proportions in the survey. For example, NCR sources onions from Ilocos Norte, Pangasinan, and Nueva Ecija. Following the sample proportion of traders in each supply province, it is assumed that 26% of NCR imports came from Ilocos Norte, 34% from Pangasinan, and 39% from Nueva Ecija.

  • CN Flores the CATTLE CARAVANS of ANCIENT CABOLOAN
    C.N. Flores THE CATTLE CARAVANS OF ANCIENT CABOLOAN (INTERIOR PLAINS OF PANGASINAN): CONNECTING HISTORY, CULTURE AND COMMERCE BY CARTWHEEL Caravan cultures throughout the world depict stories of real jour- neys, discoveries and exploits. They also account for the construction of local histories, territories and market societies. At best, caravan routes map the geoeconomic and the ethnohistoric trail of peoples on the road towards venture capitalism in the earlier centuries. But in the 21st century, the history of caravan cultures remain only in the people’s memory as artefact (or artifi ce?) and which has been romanticized into bioepics or heroic adventures of legendary men caught in the age of material adventurism from the 13th to 16th centuries. In this day of global network and cyber transactions, it is fascinating and at the same time remarkable how the caravan culture still persists in the Philippines. Its persistence as a vestige of feudal past in an era of intensifi ed commercialization and industrialization is indeed indicative of uneven modes of development, as it is symbolic of inter- secting diverse cultures where the rural locale ventures into the national and into the global with far reaching implications on issues of ethnicity and cultural import. The cattle caravans of ancient Caboloan continue to peddle their bamboo-based products from the province of Pangasinan to the highways of Metro Manila. These are the ubiquitous cattle-drawn carriages selling hammocks, bamboo chairs and bookshelves we see in front of SM Fairview, Commonwealth, East and C.P. Garcia Avenues. But not until recently when Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) agents found them illegally parked along national roads thereby considered obstruction to traffi c.

  • SERVICE DELIVERY of a WORLD HERITAGE CITY Florida U
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 9, Issue 11, November-2018 15 ISSN 2229-5518 SERVICE DELIVERY OF A WORLD HERITAGE CITY Florida U. Ursulom Abstract This survey was conducted in Vigan City to collect and generate relevant citizens’ feedback on local governments’ service delivery performance and on the citizens’ general satisfaction. Through multi-stage probability sampling, 27 of the 39 barangays were taken. From the 27 barangays, 30 spot areas were obtained with five respondents each totaling 150 respondents who were chosen using the Kish Grid and following the Starting Point-Random Start (SP-RS) control. This study specifically determined the housing profile of Vigan City residents in terms of 4Ps beneficiary, house occupancy, basic utilities, source of drinking water, source of electricity, source of information. and monthly income; the level of awareness, availment, satisfaction and importance of the service areas to the residents along health, support to education, social welfare, governance and response, public works and infrastructure, environmental management, agricultural support services, and tourism support services; and to cite the recommendations of the residents for better delivery services along the above-mentioned service areas. Findings reveal that the overall assessment on awareness, availment, satisfaction, and importance of all the service delivery areas showed a “high” level. Further, the fair level of awareness on agriculture is due to the presence of the great number of respondents who were not aware of the agricultural support of the City Government; the fair level of availment on education and governance and response, low on social welfare services, and very low on agricultural support is due to the great number of respondents who did not avail the said services of the City Government.
