  • Manaragat Festival : Preserving Culture, Sustaining Society
    MANARAGAT FESTIVAL : PRESERVING CULTURE, SUSTAINING SOCIETY 1. Context Catbalogan city is a former fishing village, established in 1596 by Jesuit missionaries, located in western Samar, one of the tree provinces of the island of Samar, Philippines’ third largest island. More broadly, the island is part of eastern Visayas region, whose capital is Tacloban city, in Leyte island. In 1616, Catbalogan became the capital of the whole island of Samar. Its central geographic location contributed to turning the city into a political, institutional, economic, cultural and historical centre and an ideal gateway to Samar island. Spread over 274,22 sq.km, the city is divided into 57 villages, 24 1 of them being urban, 12 coastal, 10 islands and 11 uplands. It became a formal city only in 2007, and recently celebrated its 400th year anniversary as Samar’s capital. As of 2015, Catbalogan’s population reached 103 879 inhabitants, with 60 000 additional visitors during day time, mostly coming from nearby municipalities for trade or studying. 2. Catbalogan and culture Small cities like Catbalogan are no less vulnerable to climate change than others, regarding not only the destruction of physical structures, but also the deterioration of cultural identity and heritage. Cultural resilience, similarly to disaster-resilience, must involve all actors to be effective and ensure the continuity of programmes. In 2004, the first culture and arts council was set up by the municipality. The City ordinance No. 2011- 004, (January 19, 2011), mandates the creation of the city tourism council while city ordinance no. 2015- 014 (May 06, 2015), mandates the creation of the Catbalogan city culture and arts council.

That growth continued into the first quarter of 2013, with a 7.8 percent year-on-year increase. The growth rate is projected to stay at about six percent or higher in 2013. • Government and consumer spending fueled the growth. On the production side, the service sector drove the acceleration, with the industrial sector (primarily construction and electricity/gas/water supply) also contributing to growth. Remittances by Overseas Foreign Workers (OFW) continue to be a major economic force in the country’s economy. GDP-per-capita has risen to about $2,600. • The national government’s fiscal deficit ended 2012 at 2.3 percent of GDP, below the programmed 2.6 percent-to-GDP ratio but up from two percent in 2011.
