  • Bulacan's Old Brick Train Stations: Reminders of a Century Past
    Bulacan's Old Brick Train Stations: Reminders of A Century Past Before the advent of all light rail transits in the metro (MRT 3, LRT1, LRT2, MRT 7), there was the Ferrocaril de Manila-Dagupan first, a heavy railway that runs from Tutuban in Manila all the way to Dagupan, Pangasinan. This railway was opened during the latter part of the Spanish Occupation in November 1892, just when the revolution against the Spanish authority is about to break out. Ferrocarril de Manila-Dagupan, Bulacan Section. The province of Bulacan, as well as its citizen benefited much from this railway because the transportation became easier for them, and traveling to Manila or up north until Dagupan, became much more comfortable. The movement of products from the province to other neighboring provinces, towns, and cities also became much more fluid. Seven stations were built in Bulacan, starting from Meycauayan, then Marilao, Bocaue, Bigaa (Balagtas), Guiguinto, Malolos Y Barasoain, and finally Calumpit. For so many decades, these railway and train stations became part of Bulakenyo's life and consciousness. Everyday, the trains would pass by and people from the towns where stations can be found hustle around riding or alighting from the train. Some of them are busy offering their goods to the passengers around the stations while some are just loitering around to watch the trains and people come and go. Now, after more than a hundred year, only the brick train stations of the railways remains. In Bulacan, there are still 5 remaining stations of which one (1) is totally in ruins while 4 are still mightily standing (whole, or in part).

  • Opposing Statements to Senate Bill 1842: a Briefer
    Opposing Statements to Senate Bill 1842: A Briefer Senate Bill 1842 is an attempt at exempting municipalities or cluster of barangays with locally generated income of at least 250 million pesos from the population and land area requirement prescribed in the 1991 Local Government Code. The Bill was not even on the 01 August calendar of the Senate but it was wedged in and approved on 2nd reading without objections. The Bill will open doors for massive conversion because any municipality or cluster of barangays that does not meet the conversion criteria will only need to file an exemption bill to do so. Smaller and IRA-dependent cities to suffer more The “mad rush” of municipalities converting into cities has negative impact on the resources of cities and greatly affects the cities’ ability to deliver basic services to their constituents. Senate Bill 1842 will open doors for massive conversion because any municipality that does not meet the conversion criteria but with large local income will only need to file an exemption bill to do so. Based on 2016 figures, there are nine (9) municipalities that could readily apply for cityhood and three (3) that are down to a few millions.1 Based on the simulation conducted by the League, the conversion of an additional city will cost existing ones roughly three (3) million pesos. As such, cities could lose more or less forty million pesos immediately upon the passage of the Bill into law. Such an estimate does not even include wealthy barangays. Cluster of Barangays May Secede and Form their Own City The Bill also has expected backlash to bigger cities (even provinces) as it allows affluent barangays to cluster together to achieve the 250 million income requirement, secede, and form their own city (not town).

  • Than Four Years Ago, a New York City-Based Environmental Group Listed the Marilao-Meycauayan-Obando River System in Bulacan As Among the 30 Dirtiest in the World
    Opinion More than four years ago, a New York City-based environmental group listed the Marilao-Meycauayan-Obando river system in Bulacan as among the 30 dirtiest in the world. The finding, made by the Blacksmith Institute, even singled out the Marilao River as the fifth dirtiest on the planet—next only to the Yellow River in Lanzhou, China; Buriganga River in Bangladesh, Yamuna River in India, and the dirtiest of them all—the Citarum River in Indonesia. The environmental group described this particular river system as “extremely polluted,” into which tons upon tons of industrial and household waste were being dumped indiscriminately on a daily basis. It’s easy to imagine that much of the mind-boggling tonnage of filth and toxic effluents are being regularly barfed into the Manila Bay by this internationally notorious river system. The people of Bulacan—particularly those in Marilao, Meycauayan and Obando—had long been aware of this stark reality. They didn’t need some environmental group from New York to tell them how indescribably filthy their rivers are. But nonetheless, when the Blacksmith Institute came out with its comparative rankings of the world’s far-gone rivers—they, and the rest of the nation as well, were taken aback and embarrassed. Initially, our Department of Environment and Natural Resources was in denial. Its immediate reaction was to question Blacksmith’s survey methodology. It was a knee-jerk reaction, an apparent attempt at suggesting Blacksmith’s findings may be misleading or inconclusive. It did not take too long, however, before it realized that there was no use in trying to belittle the problem.
