Guevarra1 Kyle Pierre R. Israel1 1 Institute of Renewable Natural Resources, College of Forestry and Natural Resources University of the Philippines - Los Baños 2 College of Architecture University of Santo Tomas Abstract The years 1946 to 2020 saw the gradual dwindling of Santa Rosa City, Laguna’s agricultural land, from 96% to 15.4%. Meanwhile, the city’s urbanization catapulted to 84.5% by 2013 from just below 4% in 1946. Under the regional development plan of the Aquino Administration designating Region IV-A, Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon (CALABARZON) as the industrial hub of the country, and driven by the increased access with the construction of the expressway in the 1980s, Santa Rosa City’s manufacturing industry rose from 746 in 1980 to 5,201 in 2013, a near 700% increase.

  • Effects of Hospitality Development to the Community of Sta. Rosa, Laguna: Inputs to Sustainable Tourism Development Plan Clarice Leigh C
    LPU-Laguna Journal of International Tourism and Hospitality Management Vol. 4 No. 2 October 2019 _____________________________________________________________________________________ Effects of Hospitality Development to the Community of Sta. Rosa, Laguna: Inputs to Sustainable Tourism Development Plan Clarice Leigh C. Dela Cruz, Liezel Joy A. Andal, King Joshua R. Antiporda, Christian C. Aguado [email protected] Lyceum of the Philippines – Laguna ABSTRACT This study is an interdisciplinary research since it is a combination of the expertise of International Hospitality Management and Tourism Management programs assessing the effects of hospitality development to the community of Sta. Rosa, Laguna in order to propose inputs for a tourism sustainable plan. Indeed, the study is a combination of quantitative and qualitative research. Survey questionnaires were utilized to know the effects of hospitality development to the host community. Then, to further intensify the result, key informant interview technique was used to know the strategies of the local government. The study revealed that in terms of the positive side, the environmental effect brought by hospitality development was significantly noticed by residents because of various programs launched by the city government in connection with ecological care. On the other hand, the residents felt the economic negative effect because of factors that they have experienced with relation to expenses. The study also showed that in terms of positive effects, the perception of the respondents has to do with their age, occupation, and length of residency. In terms of negative effects, however, demographic factors like occupation and length of residency affect their views. The local government of Santa Rosa developed different programs that helps maximize the positive effects of hospitality development as well as programs that can mitigate negative effects.

Project Summary The project is entitled “Urban and Suburban Land Distribution, Population Density and its Contribution to Problems in the CALABARZON”. This study aims to provide an analysis of the urban populations in CALABARZON and some consequences which are brought about by overpopulation and excess land conversion. Overpopulation in a city can bring many unwanted side problems. These problems include: increase in needed space, increase in garbage amounts, increase in unemployment rate and many more. Conversion of agricultural to commercial land is a consequence of overpopulation in cities. This study can help the people realize what is happening to the provinces of CALABARZON. This study can also be applied to other areas not only in the Philippines but also other overpopulated regions of the world. III. Objectives This study aims to: 1. provide rational solutions to problems brought by overpopulation and excessive land conversion, and My Community, Our Earth Geographic Learning for Sustainable Development Philippine Science High School Southern Mindanao Campus 2. give an idea of what is happening to overpopulated areas of CALABARZON.
