  • P18-B Panay River Basin Project to Be Funded by China Nation by Louine Hope U
    P18-B Panay River Basin project to be funded by China Nation By Louine Hope U. Conserva Correspondent Business World, Posted on January 10, 2017 ILOILO CITY -- The proposed Panay River Basin Integrated Development Project (PRBIDP), estimated to cost P18 billion, will be bankrolled by a soft loan from China, according to the new National Irrigation Administration (NIA) head. NIA Administrator Peter T. Laviña, who visited Iloilo City this week, said the PRBIDP, considered as the biggest irrigation project within the next three years, was among the big- ticket items presented by President Rodrigo R. Duterte during his official visit to China in October 2016. Mr. Laviña said the Chinese expressed eagerness for the project and the terms of the loan, which will be based on the completed feasibility study, is now being assessed. “But if this will be funded by China, most likely this will be very low interest rates loan or concessional loan,” he told the local media here. NIA-Western Visayas Regional Irrigation Manager Gerardo P. Corsiga said the feasibility study has already been endorsed by the Provincial Development Council of Capiz. “We will elevate it (feasibility study) to the Regional Development Council (and) we will submit it to the National Economic Development Authority central office for further evaluation,” Mr. Corsiga said. The PRBIDP, to be located in the town of Tapaz, will be bigger than the South Korea-funded P11.2 billion Jalaur River Multi-Purpose Project Phase II in Calinog, Iloilo in terms of coverage area. It will have two dams -- the Panay High Dam and Panay Afterbay Dam; a high line canal; and a floodway component.

  • Bulabog Puti-An National Park Tour Package
    The BPNP covers the municipalities of Dingle and San Enrique, Province of Iloilo. It was proclaimed under Presidential Proclamation No. 760 as a National Park in 1961 by President Carlos P. Garcia. The park is known for its unique geological formation and is the only limestone mountain formation in Iloilo Province. It is also known as the location of the "Cry of Lincud" which started the Philippine Revolution in Iloilo in 1898. The BPNP is home to 30 remarkable caves. However, only four of these caves are occasionally trekked/explored by tourists because others may either have small openings or found alongside cliffs. These are Tuko Cave, Maestranza Cave, Guizo Cave, and Lapus-lapus Cave. It is named as such because of the number of tukos or geckos inhabiting it. It is a small cave of elegant stalactites and stalagmites formations. It is considered a historical cave declared by the National Historical Institute because it served as the hideaway for Filipino guerillas, with the presence of inscription inside the cave wall that reads "Los Republicanos Juran Morir Antes Que Entregarse" or "The Republicans Swear to Die Before Surrendering". The cave is also a cultural and religious site for Roman Catholics who visit the place every Holy Week to do "via cruzes" or "way of the cross" BPNP also houses many endemic species such as black tarantula, snail, millipede, tailless whip, scorpion, Philippine orange tarantula, flying fox, pit viper, etc. The Moroboro Dam of the Jalaur river is also another tourist spot in the park. It is built in 1955 to provide additional water supply, improve irrigation in the Province of Iloilo, augment electric power supply through a hydroelectric plant and enhance flood mitigation measures which serves the towns of Dingle, Barotac Nuevo, Dumangas and Zarraga..

ADB’s Integrated Flood Risk Management Sector Project 03 3. Using EO data to provide an Inundation Monitoring Service to the ADB 04 4. Capacity building 06 1. INTRODUCTION Earth Observation (EO) data has significant potential to support climate resilience planning, design and implementation. Since 2019, The European Space Agency’s Earth Observation for Sustainable Development Climate Resilience (EO4SD CR) cluster has worked with several International Finance Institutions (IFIs) to apply EO-derived data and services to support real-world climate resilience projects. One such collaboration is with the Asian Development Bank (ADB), where EO data was provided to improve the flood risk management related to its projects in the Philippines. As part of this collaboration, the EO4SD CR cluster developed an Inundation Monitoring Service (IMS) for the Jalaur River Basin, on Panay Island. The IMS is a satellite-based tool that detect both seasonal fluctuation of water bodies and long- term changes. The maps provide by the IMS show the extent of flooded areas over time, which helps the ADB to build a more detailed understanding of the flood response in a particular area. As well as delivering the IMS product, the EO4SD CR cluster has also provided a capacity building programme to support ADB staff to better understand and use EO-derived data and services in their work. About ESA’s EO4SD Climate Resilience Cluster Since 2008, the European Space Agency (ESA) has worked closely with International Financing Institutions (IFIs) and their client countries to harness the benefits of EO in their operations and resources management.

All regions exhibited positive performance in 2017, led by CAR, Davao Region, Western Visayas, SOCCSKSARGEN, ARMM, Cagayan Valley, CALABARZON, MIMAROPA and Caraga. Growth in the regions has been broad‐based and benefited largely from the remarkable improvement in the agriculture sector. Favorable weather conditions and sufficient water supply supported strong yields of major crops. Palay and corn production grew by 16.2 percent and 9.6 percent in 2017, from previous year’s contraction of 4.5 percent and 4.0 percent, respectively. Swine and fish production grew, albeit, at a slower pace while chicken production rose amid high demand for poultry products in Eastern and Central Visayas, Zamboanga Peninsula and Caraga regions. However, cattle production contracted in 2017 due to typhoon damage, incidence of animal deaths, less stocks available, and unfavorable market prices, among others.
