INTRODUCTION Vision and Mission The aspirations of the citizens of General Santos City are articulated in its vision and mission statements, as follows: Vision: “Gensan, the Green City of the South, the Financial Center of Region XII, Regional Agri-Industrial and Transshipment Hub of SOCCSKSARGEN, and Model of a Harmonious Multi-cultural City; blessed with a healthy, disciplined and educated citizenry; driven by diversified, competitive and resilient economy; endowed with a balanced, sustainable and well-managed environment; equipped with efficient, hazard-resistant, and world class infrastructures and governed by a responsive, participatory and transparent leadership.” Mission: To pursue a stable local economy supportive of development and growth, environmental protection, and security for all people in General Santos City. The vision of the Generals (as the citizens of the city are called) espouses a city that is globally competitive where people enjoy high quality of life in the form of good health, education, sense of responsibility, and participation in governance. The mission of the city emphasizes productivity and responsibility by undertaking quality interventions that pursue public welfare. The city‗s aspiration emphasizes the importance of efficiency, productivity, quality of life and environment, fairness and equity. Any intervention that the city pursues must therefore be anchored on these ideals. And in the process of identifying these interventions, the different stakeholders or the citizens themselves should get involved or granted the opportunity to participate for the city to realize its aspirations. In support of the city‗s vision and mission, five (5) equally important goals were crafted, as follows: (i) Improve road safety; (ii) Improve public transport quality; (iii) Reduce air pollution from transport; (iv) Reduce traffic congestion; and (v) Enhance transport equity. The proposed sustainable public transport plan for the city of General Santos that is embodied in this document intends to address the above stated goals leading to its vision and mission for a better quality of life for the Generals in the near and far future. In 1 | GSC LOCAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT ROUTE PLAN 2017 so doing it is necessary to adapt the paradigm in sustainable urban transport planning about, ―planning for the people rather than vehicles. The Department of Transportation through DOTr Department Order No. 2017- 011, otherwise known as the ―Omnibus Guidelines in the Planning and Identification of Public Road Transportation Services and Franchise Issuance‖, shifted the determination and provision of public transportation services from the private sector to the public sector. Therefore, local government units such as the city of General Santos shall do the planning, designing and implementing of the local public transport routes which should be consistent with the developmental plans of the city. Since the CLUP anticipates the growth of the city and it defines the potential growth or expansion areas for certain land uses, It is therefore necessary to adapt the concept of Sustainable Urban Transport in future land use planning. Therefore a paradigm shift is noted from the previous operator driven routes to the developmental plan driven route in determining the potential routes for public transport. There are a number of possible ways of viewing the concept of sustainability, all of which in some way or another point to the need for a lasting solution to the city‗s transport needs: Environmentally sustainable: non-polluting, using low carbon technology, and sensitive to the scale of the local street environment; Financially sustainable: able to generate sufficient revenue to cover costs, while still being affordable for the majority of users; Socially sustainable: able to provide for the transport needs of most sectors of society, both now and in the foreseeable future; easily adaptable to future needs and supported by a wide range of stakeholders. It is therefore the intention of this plan to adapt the principles of sustainable development that includes the following complimentary elements: Integrated urban land use and transport planning: Urban transport plans should be integrated with urban land use plans to support more efficient approaches to planning urban expansion and redevelopment, limit trip lengths, make sustainable transport modes convenient for users, and optimize system integration. Public transport systems: These are needed to provide urban populations with safe, secure, accessible, rapid, efficient, and user-friendly transport, and to reduce pollution, congestion, and accidents. 2 | GSC LOCAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT ROUTE PLAN 2017 Profile This section describes the geographic, demographic, and economic condition of GSC. Geography Figure 1: Location Map of General Santos City GSC lies at the southern part of thePhilippines. It is located between 125°1‘ and 125°17‘east longitude and between 5°58‘ and 6°20‘ north latitude. The city is south of Manila and southwest of Davao. The municipalities of Alabel, Malungon, and Maasim of Sarangani province and the municipalities of Polomolok and T‘boli of South Cotabato surround the city. With the new Reorganization of Administrative Region in Mindanao based on Presidential E.O. 36 approved on 19 September 2001, GSC became part of Region XII or SOCCSKSARGEN (South Cotabato, Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani, and GSC) in 3 | GSC LOCAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT ROUTE PLAN 2017 Central Mindanao. SOCCSKSARGEN now comprises 45 municipalities, with four provinces (North Cotabato, Sarangani, South Cotabato, and Sultan Kudarat) and five cities (GSC, Cotabato City, Koronadal City, Kidapawan City, and Tacurong City). GSC is part of the First Congressional District of South Cotabato. It is a chartered city and not politically part of any province. The city has 26 barangays with 12 urban and 14 rural barangays. Demography Based on the Philippine Statistics Authority census of 2015, the total population of the city is recorded at 594,446. The total number of households is estimated at 144,987 with an average household size of 4.1. Compared to the 1995–2000 population growth rate of the city at 5.05%, the NSO population census of 2010 marked a sharp decrease in annual growth rate at 2.71%. For the five-year period of 2010–2015, the city‗s population showed an annual increase of 1.9%. Of the city‗s 26 barangays, Calumpang (75,342) and Fatima (66,460) ranked highest in terms of population with a share of approximately 13% and 11%, respectively, in 2015. Labangal had a population of 61,713, which accounted for 10%. Lagao, with its population of 50,789, had a share of 9% of the total population of the city. Urban and rural populations accounted for 97% and 3%, respectively. Economy GSC is an important agro-industrial area in SOCCSKSARGEN (Region XII). The major economic activities are anchored in agro-industry and fishing industry. The city produces corn, coconut, pineapple, asparagus, banana, rice, other fruits, vegetables, and cut flowers. It is also a major producer and supplier of livestock, such as cattle, swine, and poultry. The major exports are fresh/canned pineapples, fresh bananas, coconut/ crude/ Cochin-type coconut oil, copra pellets, cut flowers, asparagus, okra, and abaca pulp. It is the largest producer of sashimi-grade tuna in the Philippines and is the Tuna Capital of the Philippines. Commercial fishing continues to be a major agro-industry of the city which accounts for the second-largest daily total catch of fish in the country next to Navotas City. The total daily capacity of GSC is 750 MT of fish catch. The Fish Port Complex has modern facilities that comply with international standards on fish catch landing. Aside from fresh/frozen tuna, GSC exports canned tuna, produced by seven canned tuna processors located in the city. Other fishery product exports are frozen octopus and shrimps, and other fish and aquaculture products. 4 | GSC LOCAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT ROUTE PLAN 2017 Aside from being a major food supplier, GSC is also the main service hub for exports and imports for the SOCCSKSARGEN Region. The quantity of exports from the GSC Seaport ranged from 395,000 MT in 2009 to 504,000 MT in 2011. Export value ranged from USD419 million to USD659 million. The quantity declined slightly by an average of 3.5% during a five-year period, but the value increased by an average of 12%. As the fastest growing metropolitan area in the region, GSC has become a major trading point for agricultural products in the region. In 2011, the city registered 1,365 new medium to large enterprises, valued at PHP1.202 billion.

  • Chapter V Buayan to General Santos: More Than Just Physical Change
    CHAPTER V BUAYAN TO GENERAL SANTOS: MORE THAN JUST PHYSICAL CHANGE This chapter deals with the post-war changes of the settlement area of Koronadal Valley found in the Municipal District of Buayan until it became a city two decades after the end of World War II . Discussed in the early part is the initial phase of recovery made difficult by NLSA’s failure to provide leadership during these difficult times and a calamity of unbelievable proportion which befell Cotabato province lasting for almost a decade. Amidst the challenges of the post-war period, Buayan, propelled by its inherent geographic advantage and the established pattern of peaceful interaction between the Christian settlers and the original inhabitants, was able to recover sufficiently to start the process of qualitative growth and development. Nonetheless, the continuous pouring in of Christian settlers into the area led to the transformation of the hitherto extension of the Magindanao world into a predominantly Christian territory. While generally peaceful, any change is usually accompanied by tension. But as of the sixties, land conflicts, bombings, kidnappings, and the like that characterize 21st century reality were not part as yet of the Mindanao horizon. In the South Cotabato world, the period after the war until 1967 was characterized by optimism expressed by the term "boom-town-in-the-making." Such upbeat tempo of the former Buayan was the mode of the day despite the tremendous difficulties faced by the inhabitants of the area immediately after the war. A. Buayan : Intrigues, “Daga, Balang,at iba pa”, 1946 - 1954 The post liberation period found Koronadal Valley in shambles just like the rest of the country.

  • CHAPTER IV the JAPANESE INTERREGNUM, 1942-1945 A. The
    CHAPTER IV THE JAPANESE INTERREGNUM, 1942-1945 This chapter deals with the Japanese occupation of Koronadal Valley. An alien invading force would radically change the direction of developmental process in Koronadal Valley, particularly Buayan. From an envisioned agricultural settlement serving a major function for the Commonwealth government, Koronadal Valley was transformed into a local entity whose future direction would be determined by the people no longer in accordance with the objectives for which it was established but in accordance with the dynamics of growth in response to changing times. It is ironic that an event that was calamitous in itself would provide the libertarian condition to liberate Koronadal Valley from the limiting confines of Commonwealth Act No. 441. But more than structural change, the Japanese interlude put to test the new community. The sudden departure from the scene of the two titans of the community - General Paulino Santos and Mayor Abedin - raised the urgent need for the people left behind to take stock of themselves and respond to the difficult times sans the guiding hands of its leaders. A. The Southward Thrust of Japan to Mindanao To the people of the valley, the war was received with shock, fear and trepidation. It was like a thief in the night coming when everybody was unprepared. One settler recalled: “We were afraid when we heard over the radio that the Japanese are coming. We immediately evacuated and left behind our farms and animals. We hid in the mountains of Palkan, proceeding to Glamang and then to Kiamba. Our hunger drove us to dig sweet potatoes from the farms that we passed by.

  • Proximity Indexing of Public Transport Terminals in Metro Manila
    sustainability Article Proximity Indexing of Public Transport Terminals in Metro Manila Krister Ian Daniel Roquel *, Raymund Paolo Abad and Alexis Fillone Civil Engineering Department, De La Salle University, Manila 1004, Philippines; [email protected] (R.P.A.); alexis.fi[email protected] (A.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Despite the extensive transit network in Metro Manila, intermodal connections between public transportation services are still fragmented. In response, authorities proposed various mul- timodal transport terminals around the periphery of the metropolis. However, there is a need to understand how these proposed terminals will impact existing transportation infrastructure and services as well as the current travel demand. This paper proposes a method that quantifies the nearness of any subject to any metric of interest, or in this case, the location of the terminal based on its proximity to existing transit supply and demand at different points in the transport network. It involves a simple methodology that requires only the spatial distribution of relevant transport planning data (e.g., public transport services, public transport passenger activity). It was found that the spatial distribution of the transport terminals in the study area is more closely related to the transit supply. Using the same methodology, several potential locations in Metro Manila (e.g., central terminal, terminal along a major junction) were assessed to see whether these are viable sites for a multimodal terminal. One scenario configuration was found to be better integrated with where trips start and/or end, while another seemed to improve integration of the existing railways.
