Esquivias Assistant National Statistician National Censuses Service ISSN 0117-1453 FOREWORD The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) conducted the 2015 Census of Population (POPCEN 2015) in August 2015 primarily to update the country’s population and its demographic characteristics, such as the size, composition, and geographic distribution. Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density is among the series of publications that present the results of the POPCEN 2015. This publication provides information on the population size, land area, and population density by region, province, highly urbanized city, and city/municipality based on the data from population census conducted by the PSA in the years 2000, 2010, and 2015; and data on land area by city/municipality as of December 2013 that was provided by the Land Management Bureau (LMB) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). Also presented in this report is the percent change in the population density over the three census years. The population density shows the relationship of the population to the size of land where the population resides. -
Dire Rights Situation As Martial Law Continues in Southern Philippines
International fact-finding mission: Dire rights situation as Martial Law continues in southern Philippines 26 February 2018 (Quezon City, Philippines) – Under continuing Martial Law in the Mindanao island, in southern Philippines, farmers and indigenous peoples have experienced heightened cases of false charges, harassment, and even torture and killings. This is according to personal accounts of farmers, indigenous peoples and delegates of a recent International Solidarity Mission (ISM) who gathered at a forum today. Displacement, torture, killings Janry Mensis, a farmer from Compostela Valley in the Davao region, recounted how he and a minor “Jerry” was beaten, tortured and barely escaped murder by soldiers under the 71st Infantry “Kaibigan” Battalion (IB) of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP). The report of the fact-finding mission also found a grim situation in Compostela Valley: “Several families from Talaingod and other communities in Compostela Valley are evacuating because of hamletting and threats.” “There are around 60 families of Lumads who are now in the Sanctuary area, and still counting. This is due to the massive militarization happening in their ancestral lands prohibiting them to go to their farms,” the report of the ISM added. The report also described how the AFP, with foreign and local big business, “have instigated a brutal war against indigenous people’s communities in the SocSKSargends region, which resulted in the massacre of eight Lumad leaders in Lake Sebu, South Cotabato.” Adina Ambag, sister of one of the victims of the December 2017 Lake Sebu massacre,i decried the inaction of the local government and the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) during last Monday’s forum. -

Sespeñe†・Marla Maniquiz-Redillas・김이형・추연욱 Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Kongju National University Cheonan City, Korea (Received : 22 June 2016, Revised: 02 August 2016, Accepted: 02 August 2016) Abstract The Philippines is a naturally water-rich archipelago capable of sustaining its ecological goods and providing services and needs of its people. Several waterbodies have been declared as natural wetlands in the country supporting the needs of community like water and food. In this study, 65 natural wetlands were considered including six sites that were identified as ‘Wetlands of International Importance’ such as Naujan Lake National Park, Agusan Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary, Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary, Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, Las Piñas-Parañaque Critical Habitat and Ecotourism Area and Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park. There are 22 wetland types presented in this research categorizing the Philippine wetlands. Philippine wetlands are now facing tremendous challenges such as land use conversion, abuse of resources, pollution coming from domestic, industrial and agricultural activities, and climate change. This paper provides an overview of Philippine wetlands in terms of their characteristics and components, impacts in the ecosystem, and the challenges they are dealing with. -
South Cotabato's Strategies to Tourism Development
South Cotabato’s Strategies to Tourism Development A Presentation by: Governor Daisy P. Avance Fuentes to the Japan Council of Local Authorities for International Relations (CLAIR) An international Forum of Philippine-Japan Administration on “ADVANCING LOCAL ECONOMY THROUGH TOURISM DEVELOPMENT: THE ROLE OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS” PRESENTATION OUTLINE I. SOUTH COTABATO BRIEF PROFILE II. RATIONALE III. CHALLENGES IV. TOURISM PRODUCT PORTFOLIO V. DESTINATION IMAGE MANAGEMENT VI. OTHER STRATEGIES AND INITIATIVES VII. TOURISM IMPACTS VIII. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT LEARNINGS IN TOURISM DEVELOPMENT South Cotabato has a land area of 3,706 square kilometers and a population of 827,200 (2010 Census) The province is part of one of the country’s fastest development clusters known as SOCCSKSARGEN officially designated as Region XII which consists of 4 provinces: South Cotabato, Cotabato Province, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani together with 3 component cities: Koronadal City of South Cotabato, Tacurong City of Sultan Kudarat and Kidapawan City of Cotabato province, 2 independent cities/chartered cities: General Santos City and Cotabato City. SoCCSKSarGen Cluster 2 Blessed with almost even dry and rainy seasons (typhoon free) and fertile soil, picturesque landscapes, and very unique tri- people cultures which have been nurtured and preserved through generations we are greatly challenged with the negative peace and order perception of South-Central Mindanao that made our very own Filipino tourists shy away from including us as a tourist destination. 3 Great advantage – cultural endowments, which can be positioned to make us a premier tourist destination. It is our “sunshine” industry - Tourism will give us a greater economic stability, fund our environmental rehabilitation and protection programs, and provide us stimuli or incentives for our tenured migrants to sustain our conservation efforts. -
Limnology of Lake Wood: an Ancestral Lake of the Subanen Tribe
Philippine Journal of Science 150 (5): 1231-1243, October 2021 ISSN 0031 - 7683 Date Received: 14 Dec 2020 Limnology of Lake Wood: An Ancestral Lake of the Subanen Tribe Marjohn Y. Baludo1*, Rey Donne S. Papa3, and Francis S. Magbanua2 1Institute of Environmental Science and Meteorology; 2Institute of Biology University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City 1101 Philippines 3Department of Biological Sciences, College of Science; and Research Center for the Natural and Applied Sciences and the Graduate School University of Santo Tomas, Manila 1015 Philippines Relatively limited information exists on Lake Wood’s limnology and ecology, an ancestral lake of the Subanens. Here, we provide a limnological characterization of the lake – exploring its physical, chemical, and biological features. The data on lake morphometry were gathered using an echosounder; lower depth water samples were collected using a Niskin water sampler for physicochemical analyses while surface water samples were collected at five sampling sites for phosphate (PO4) analysis; and zooplankton samples were collected at several depths through vertical towing in March–April 2019. Lake Wood, located at 320 m above sea level, has an extensive surface area covering 7.38 km2 with a maximum depth of 85 m. Lake water comes from rainfall, small rivers, and groundwater and empties into the Dumanquilas Bay via its only outlet – the Biswangan River. Land use of the lake is predominantly cultivated land. Moreover, based on the trophic state index (TSI), the lake’s current trophic status is eutrophic. During the study periods, thermocline and oxycline formed at 15 m below the surface of the lake. -

This study highlights the major types of waste that are accumulating in a mine both surface and underground. The study also reveals what has been done by Renco Mine in dealing with waste associated with the mining of gold. It shows that little has been done in the reduction of waste generated by mining activities. The issue of waste management is correctly perceived to be a major issue for municipal councils and the manufacturing, construction and chemicals industries. There is less recognition, however, of the vastly larger quantity of solid wastes produced by the mining industry. The reasons for this are most likely due to the perceived relatively benign nature of mine wastes, remoteness from populations, apparent success in mine waste management, or other factors. Waste rock is generally the only waste type which could pose a significant long term environmental threat, as it could contain significant sulfide mineralization. This paper examines waste management challenges at Renco Mine (Zimbabwe) and makes several recommendations at the end. -

Genetic Diversity and Structure of Oryza Rufipogon Griff. Populations in the Philippines
Philippine Journal of Science 150 (S1): 17-28, Special Issue on Biodiversity ISSN 0031 - 7683 Date Received:27 Jul 2020 Genetic Diversity and Structure of Oryza rufipogon Griff. Populations in the Philippines Sandy Jan E. Labarosa1*, Neah Rosandra Sevilla2, Dindo Agustin A. Tabanao2, Nenita B. Baldo1, Helen L.V. Ebuña1, and Joy M. Jamago1* 1Department of Agronomy and Plant Breeding, College of Agriculture Central Mindanao University, Musuan, Maramag, Bukidnon 8710 Philippines 2Plant Breeding and Biotechnology Division, Philippine Rice Research Institute Science City of Muñoz, Nueva Ecija 3119 Philippines Oryza rufipogon Griff., or “Rufi” in the Philippines, was previously known to be found only in Lake Apo, Bukidnon. However, a new population was identified in Lake Napalit in the same province. A better understanding of the genetic diversity of both Rufi populations using molecular methods may be beneficial to further ascertain its usefulness in rice breeding and in the development of effective conservation strategies. Population genetic analysis was conducted to estimate the degree of genetic diversity and population structure of the two Philippine Rufi populations using 98 genome-wide simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. Four Oryza sativa indica and three O. sativa japonica cultivars were added for comparison. Results indicate that both Rufi populations exhibit low genetic diversity but with significant population structure and differentiation. Low genetic diversity suggests that both populations might be in a genetic bottleneck, perhaps due to observed unsustainable farming practices near their habitat and lack of awareness among locals of their importance. Also, geographical isolation that prevented gene flow between the two populations, as well as the unique climatic conditions between the two lakes might have contributed to the significant population structuring and differentiation. -
