  • Mat Weaving in Apalit and Vicinity, Province of Pampanga，Luzon
    113 Mat Weaving in Apalit and Vicinity, Province of Pampanga，Luzon By R ic a r d o E. G a l a n g Although mat-weaving is not considered to be one of the most important industries in the Philippines, yet in some towns of the provinces it is the chief occupation of the women. In Apalit, a town in Pampanga, mat-weaving is the chief occupation of the women. It is widely spread in every barrio (village) of that town. The material used in this industry is the young leaves or shoots of the buri palm. It is not available in that town but it is obtained from the neigh­ boring provinces. The vendors load their bancas with buri shoots and visit the town every Saturday. The ordinary price of one hundred shoots of buri is 1.25 peso (1917). There are two processes in preparing the material for weaving. One process is the ordinary preparation of the material, i.e. the leaves are separated from one another and are dried in the sun for about four or five days. We know that the leaf of buri is a compound leaf, i.e. it is composed of little leaves. Each of these little leaves is torn from its midrib by a knife. These leaves are rolled up in order to make each leaf smooth. Then they are placed in one corner till the cutting process takes place. The other process of preparation is by boiling the leaves in a can of water containing vinegar and alum in order to whiten the leaves.

    06 JANUARY 2021, WEDNESDAY Headline STRATEGIC January 06, 2021 COMMUNICATION & Editorial Date INITIATIVES Column SERVICE 1 of 2 Opinion Page Feature Article DENR to give out shredder-composter machines to 178 Manila Bay LGUs in 2021 By DENRPublished on January 5, 2021 Industrial-grade shredder-composter machines QUEZON CITY, Jan. 5 -- The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) is targeting in 2021 to provide each of the 178 local government units (LGUs) within the Manila Bay region with industrial-grade shredder-composter machines to help them comply with Republic Act 9003, or the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000. DENR Undersecretary for Solid Waste Management and LGUs Concerns Benny D. Antiporda disclosed this during the turnover of the first batch of shredder-composter equipment to Pampanga LGUs—San Fernando City and the towns of Apalit, Candaba, Guagua and Magalang. The Manila Bay region is comprised of the National Capital Region and eight provinces from Regions III and IV-A, namely, Bataan, Bulacan, Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, Tarlac, Laguna, Rizal and Cavite. During the recent turnover ceremony held at the DENR Central Office in Quezon City, Antiporda said the agency will continue to provide LGUs the necessary support to ensure their compliance with RA 9003. “Sad to say, compliance is slow particularly where LGUs lack the means for full and prompt compliance,” Antiporda lamented. “This is where the DENR steps in, in line with its mandate to provide technical assistance and other capability-building assistance to LGUs,” he added. A shredder-composter set includes a brand new composter that can process one ton of compost material within 24 hours, and a brand new shredder with the capacity to process two tons of organic waste per day.
