The official poverty monitoring system (PMS) in the Philippines relies mainly on family income and expenditure surveys. Information on other aspects of well-being is generally obtained from representative health surveys, national population and housing censuses, and others. However, these surveys and censuses are (i) too costly to be replicated frequently; (ii) conducted at different time periods, making it impossible to get a comprehensive profile of the different socio-demographic groups of interest at a specific point in time; and (iii) have sampling designs that do not usually correspond to the geographical disaggregation needed by local government units (LGUs). In addition, the implementation of the decentralization policy, which devolves to LGUs the function of delivering basic services, creates greater demand for data at the local level. The Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS) seeks to address these gaps by providing data at the local level appropriate for diagnosing the cause and extent of local poverty, formulating appropriate policies and programs, identifying eligible beneficiaries, and assessing the impact of policies and programs. It also supports the decentralization process by capacitating the LGUs to collect, analyze, and use data in local planning, budgeting, and program implementation. This second volume of statistical tables and poverty maps of seven provinces generated through the CBMS methodology represents part of what we hope will be a series of publications that will emerge from the collaborations between the CBMS Network Coordinating Team and its partner-LGUs. These partnerships have been in place for several years now, and these partner-LGUs are finally enjoying the fruits of their hard labor. The CBMS poverty maps will identify who and where the poor are as they provide a comprehensive picture of the different faces of poverty in different parts of the country. They will also aid in identifying the most pressing needs of the community, assist in prioritizing interventions to address these needs, and facilitate the targeting of programs for those who need the assistance most. The provinces featured in this volume are Agusan del Sur, Dinagat Islands, Marinduque, Oriental Mindoro, Palawan, Sarangani, and Southern Leyte. The statistics presented in this report are based on the CBMS surveys conducted in these provinces during a 4-year period–from 2005-2008. The work leading to the publication of this book owes much to the unwavering support and commitment of our partners both at the local and national levels. For so many months now, we have worked hand-in-hand with them in consolidating databases and validating our survey findings. And now, with their consent, we are sharing their data to a wide range of CBMS stakeholders all over the country – indeed a glowing testament of their dedication to make their development planning processes more efficient and effective! Tremendous thanks are therefore in order to all our partner LGUs, national government agencies, non-government organizations, donors and other development partners for making this possible. It is hoped that this publication will provide the necessary data to facilitate evidence-based decision-making toward improving local governance and reducing poverty in the country.

The Many Faces of Poverty (Volume 2) i INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION

Considered a foremost legislation that ushered in a new era of local governance, the Local Government Code (LGC) of 1991 has paved the way not only for greater autonomy but also for increased expenditure responsibility and revenue authority of local government units. Since then, the local government units (LGUs) have assumed a greater role in local government management and service delivery. The devolution is substantial not only in the magnitude of responsibilities that were shifted to LGUs but also in the amount of resources now at their disposal to effectively discharge the devolved functions. Today, LGUs have access to multiple revenue sources, chief of which is their share in the national internal revenues—the Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA). For the period 2006–2009, the average IRA per year is P172.4 billion (see Table 1).

Table 1. Internal Revenue Allotment of Local Government Units, 2006–2009

Amount Year (in P billion) 2009 201.3 2008 169.9 2007 183.9 2006 134.5 TOTAL 689.6 Ave. per year 172.4 Source: DBM

While experts agree that local governments are not awash with cash, the P689.6 billion worth of IRA that the LGUs have received over the 4-year period is certainly a big amount. This underscores the importance of making sure that LGUs are equipped with the right tools, systems, and procedures to ensure the effective use of these public financial resources. One way to do this is by providing them access to comprehensive socioeconomic data, on the basis of which they can craft their development plans and budgets.

Statistical Issues and Concerns at the Subnational Level

With decentralization, the types of data demanded by a wide range of users—policymakers, program implementers, civil society, and others—are changing. Data disaggregated to correspond to the different levels of government are needed by LGUs to adequately assess their local situation. Moreover, longitudinal data are needed to track welfare changes over time. Household-level data are also needed to identify eligible beneficiaries of different programs. In 2005, 14 years after the LGC enactment, the ADB-WB released a report highlighting statistical issues and concerns at the subnational level. It said: “The most comprehensive and consistent comparative subnational data is at the regional level although this is simply an administrative level of government that has no responsibilities for delivery of social services. More data is gradually becoming available at the provincial level, but not at lower levels, which are at the frontline of efforts to reduce poverty.”1

The Many Faces of Poverty (Volume 2) 1 Local Poverty Monitoring Systems Rise up to the Challenge

Owing to still unresolved statistical issues and concerns at the subnational level, an increasing number of LGUs all over the country have taken the initiative to establish their own Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS). As of August 31, 2010, CBMS is being implemented in 60 provinces (32 of which are implementing the system province-wide), 698 municipalities, and 45 cities, covering a total of 18,269 barangays. Data generated by CBMS have so far been used in diagnosing the nature and extent of poverty in their localities, identifying appropriate interventions, identifying eligible beneficiaries of poverty reduction programs, and assessing the impact of some of these programs. National government agencies have likewise taken notice of the CBMS initiative. Today, CBMS is recognized as a tool for (i) building the capacity of LGUs on poverty diagnosis and planning, (ii) localizing the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), and (iii) generating local poverty statistics for evidence- based development planning and budgeting. Parallel with efforts to establish databanks at each geopolitical level, an initiative on building the national repository of CBMS data has also been jumpstarted with the installation of the repository at the National Anti-Poverty Commission (NAPC) and at the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG). The national repository is envisioned to facilitate data sharing across government agencies, the private sector, donor agencies, and other relevant stakeholders. Specifically, the national repository will (i) facilitate the access and use of the integrated CBMS database by national entities in their advocacy work with key decisionmakers, (ii) support government and non-government funding sources in strengthening evidence-based planning and monitoring and in aligning their interventions to national priorities, and (ii) facilitate the implementation of targeted programs.

Concluding Remarks

Public statistics will increasingly shape public agenda at the local level as more and more LGUs establish their own monitoring systems to make their development planning processes more efficient and effective. In this scenario, local poverty monitoring systems such as the CBMS will have an extremely important role to play. The country’s experience with local-level poverty monitoring systems clearly demonstrates that there can be a comprehensive picture of the poverty situation. Very few, if any, national surveys collect information on the different dimensions of poverty. There is a survey on income and expenditure, another on health, another on education, another on employment, another on nutrition, and others. As the samples and the reference periods are different, there is no comprehensive picture of the poverty status of the population at any point in time. This is where CBMS can make a difference as it addressess these gaps through its set of core indicators relating to the different dimensions of poverty.

A. CBMS Core Indicators

The statistical tables and poverty maps presented in this volume pertain to the CBMS Core Indicators (also known as Core Local Poverty Indicators1), which were generated using the CBMS methodology.

Box 1. Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS)

The CBMS is an organized way of collecting ongoing or recurring information at the local level to be used by local governments, national government agencies, non-government organization (NGOs), and civil society for planning, budgeting, and implementing local development programs, as well as for monitoring and evaluating their performance. It is a tool for improved local governance and democratic decisionmaking that promotes greater transparency and accountability in resource allocation.

It involves the following steps: Step 1 – Advocacy/organization Step 2 – Data collection and field editing Step 3 – Data encoding and map digitization Step 4 – Data consolidation, database-building and poverty mapping Step 5 – Data validation and community consultation Step 6 – Knowledge (database) management Step 7 – Plan formulation Step 8 – Dissemination, implementation, and monitoring

The CBMS Core Indicators are a set of carefully selected indicators that capture the multiple dimensions of poverty. They define the basic criteria for attaining a decent quality of life and correspond to the minimum basic needs covering (a) health, (b) nutrition, (c) housing, (d) water and sanitation, (e) basic education, (f) income, (g) employment, and (h) peace and order. Together, these indicators provide information not only on how poor a community is, but also on who in the community is poor, and where.

The CBMS Core Indicators are presented in Table 1. Meanwhile, the poverty and food thresholds used are presented in Table 2.

1 The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) has issued Memorandum Circular 2003-92 (April 2003) to set policy guidelines for the adoption of the 13 core local poverty indicators, for planning and Memoradum Circular 2004-152 (November 2004) to encourage LGUs to intensify efforts toward the achievement of the millennium development goals (MDGs). The latter circular also enjoins LGUs to use monitoring systems such as MBN-CBIS, CBMS, IRAP, etc., to monitor and diagnose the nature and extent of poverty in their respective localities. CBMS was adopted by the DILG as the data collection and processing system for the CLPIMS which was the tool adopted to monitor the MDGs for LGUs.

B. Authority for the Survey

The National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) has issued Resolution No. 6 (2005), which recognizes and enjoins support to the CBMS as a tool for strengthening the statistical system at the local level. It also directs the NSCB Technical Staff to initiate and coordinate an advocacy program for the adoption of the CBMS by the LGUs, through the Regional Statistical Coordination Committees (RSCCs), the technical arm of the NSCB Executive Board in the regions.

The NSCB has also approved the CBMS Survey Instruments (NSCB Approval No. DILG-0903- 01)

C. Survey Operations

All survey operations were undertaken under the supervision of the CBMS Technical Working Groups (TWGs) at the provincial and municipal Levels. They identified the local personnel who were trained as enumerators and field supervisors. Technical assistance was provided by the PEP-CBMS Network Office, the Bureau of Local Government Development (BLGD) and Regional Office IV-B of the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), National Anti-Poverty Commission (NAPC), National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Regional Office IV-B, and the Institute for Democratic Participation in Governance (IDPG).

Training is mainly conducted at two levels. The first level training (Training of Trainors) is conducted for members of the TWGs. This is usually conducted by members of the research staff of the PEP-CBMS Network Office and CBMS-accredited trainors from the DILG, NAPC and NEDA. Meanwhile, a second level training (Training of Enumerators) is conducted for enumerators--usually composed of barangay health workers and students. Members of the TWG act as trainors in this training.

The Many Faces of Poverty (Volume 2) 5 D. Data Processing System

The CBMS Data Processing System includes the CBMS Data Encoding System, Statistics Simulator (StatSim) and the CBMS-Natural Resources Database (NRDB).

The CBMS Encoding System uses CSPro (Census and Survey Processing), a software developed by the United States Bureau of Census for entering, editing, tabulating, and disseminating data from censuses and surveys. The CSPro-based Encoding System converts survey data into electronic data. It produces text files (ASCII) described by data dictionaries, which adds flexibility to the output data. This feature facilitates the interface between the CBMS data and other database systems and statistical softwares.

The CBMS-NRDB is capable of creating and storing spatial (shapefiles) and non-spatial (texts and numbers) data as well as generating maps, reports and graphs ideal for presentation and analysis of poverty attributes in the community. This has significantly addressed the need for a simple yet powerful and free geographically-oriented database.

The CBMS Mapping system employs the Natural Resources Database2 (NRDB) for CBMS- based poverty mapping and for storing and displaying household- and individual-level information.

The data presented through poverty maps using the CBMS-NRDB are processed using the CBMS StatSim which has been developed by the PEP-CBMS Network Office to address the particular need of LGUs to harness outputs from the CBMS Database such as custom tables, reports, case lists and queries. The StatSim simulates simple computations and tabulations usually done through statistical software or other tabulation applications, and also exports indicators and statistics for use in dissemination, such as tables and maps.

These software are provided for free to CBMS-implementing LGUs.

E. CBMS Poverty Maps

The poverty map for each indicator is prepared at two levels. The first level is the provincial map disaggregated by municipality while the second level is the provincial map by barangay.

A simple color scheme is used for the poverty maps. Green, light green, pink and red represents the four ranges of data for each indicator. Each indicator, however, used a different range relative to the national data (Table 2). Color ranges used for the maps are common for all the data of all the provinces in this publication for comparison purposes.

2 The NRDB was developed by Mr. Richard Alexander, a British volunteer who spent three years working for the Bohol Environment Management Office through the assistance of the Voluntary Service Overseas (vso.org.uk).

F. Limitations of the Data

While observations are taken from the entire population, the user of the data presented in this report should bear in mind that due to some difficulties, the CBMS census could not be carried out in Silago, Southern Leyte; one barangay in Maasin City, also in Southern Leyte; and 4 barangays in Malungon, Sarangani. Data for some of the barangays in the following city/municipalities in Palawan were also not available: Puerto Princesa City, Araceli, Balabac, Bataraza, Narra, Roxas, Taytay, and Kalayaan.

Estimates on poverty and subsistence incidence may also be affected by under- and/or over- reporting of income or reluctance on the part of the respondents to reveal their true levels of income. As in other surveys, the CBMS enumerators may also have encountered interview non- response and item non-response.

Message

It is indeed my great honor and pride that the Provincial Government of Dinagat Islands has finally come up with comprehensive results of the first Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS) of its 7 municipalities and 100 barangays.

In 2006, Dinagat Islands was once a part of the Province of Surigao del Norte, which was ranked number 5 among the poorest provinces in the country. With the conviction to address the poverty situation in our young province, the Provincial Government then initiated the implementation of CBMS as our initial yet sure way of fighting poverty among Dinagatnons.

Out of 21,274 households surveyed in 2008, 68.1% have income below the poverty threshold and 54.5% have income below the food threshold. Water and sanitation is also a problem that needs to be addressed with urgency and commitment by the LGUs and our partners. Mining is the major industry in the province, and we feel that there are more local natural resources needed to be explored and to be developed to provide households with gainful sources of livelihood to increase their income. In support of President Benigno Simeon Aquino III’s job- creation agenda, the Provincial Government of Dinagat Islands will seriously work on the growth of our agriculture, fishery and eco-tourism industries in the province to make the islands predictable, reliable and efficient for investors.

As the youngest province that needs to be nurtured, we are fostering stronger partnership with the private sector and all stakeholders. We also solicit any form of assistance that is wholeheartedly offered to the people of Dinagat Islands to pursue poverty reduction efforts and improve their quality of life.

This is indeed a great challenge for all of us - a challenge we will bravely take!

Maraming Salamat Po!

The Many Faces of Poverty (Volume 2) 61 Faces of Poverty in Dinagat Islands

POPULATION Dinagat Island had a total population of 96,779 in 21,274 households The 2008 Community-Based Monitoring System (CBMS) survey covered the province’s seven municipalities and 100 barangays. Among all the municipalities, San Jose is the largest in terms of population with 23.8% (23,051 individuals) while Tubajon has the smallest with only 6.4% (6,216 individuals) of the province’s total population. Of the total population, 41.3% belongs to the age range of 16 years old and below.

HEALTH AND NUTRITION One in every 100 children 0–4 years old died Among children 0–4 years old in Dinagat Island, about 1.0% died during the period covered by the survey. This corresponds to a total of 114 child deaths among children 4 years old and below. The highest death rate is recorded in Cagdianao where 1.5% of the children died, which represents 26 cases. Barangay Kanihaan in Libjo recorded the highest death rate at 10.0%. However, in terms of magnitude, Barangay Plaridel in Libjo reported the highest number where eight children 0–4 years old died during the period.

Six in every 1,000 pregnant women died due to pregnancy-related causes About 0.6% of pregnant women in the province died due to pregnancy-related causes. This corresponds to 11 cases of women deaths. At the municipal level, Dinagat had the largest proportion of women deaths at 1.0%, which means that one woman died for every 100 pregnant women. The municipality of Libjo had no reported cases of women deaths due to pregnancy-related causes. At the barangay level, the municipality of Catadman recorded the highest proportion (1.0%) although it only refers to one woman death. One death was reported in each of the 11 barangays while the rest had no cases of pregnancy-related deaths among women.

About 6 in every 100 children 0–5 years old were malnourished Of the children 0–5 years old, 6.4% were malnourished. This translates to 6 malnourished children for every 100 children 5 years old and below. Dinagat recorded the highest proportion at 12.6%, which corresponds to 157 malnourished children out of its 1,243 children within that age range. However, in terms of number, the municipality of San Jose topped the list with 228 malnourished children during the period. Among all barangays in the province, Barangay Justiniana Edera in Dinagat recorded the highest proportion (26.9%) followed by Barangay Gomez (26.0%), also in Dinagat.

HOUSING About 5% of households were living in makeshift housing; 2% were informal settlers In terms of housing, data revealed that aside from the presence of households living in makeshift housing, there are also a few households who were considered as informal settlers. In particular, 1 in every 20 households in the province was living in makeshift housing. On the other hand, 1 in every 50 households was considered a squatter or informal settler. There are also a few municipalities that recorded higher rates or worse conditions. For instance, San Jose had 9.7% households living in makeshift housing, followed by Libjo and Basilisa with 5.2% each. Living in makeshift housing is a great concern for some barangays in the province. For instance, 28.6% of households in Barangay Luna in San Jose were living in makeshift housing.

Meanwhile, informal settlers are more prevalent in the municipality of Tubajo than in other municipalities where 4.2% of the households are informal settlers. Among all barangays, Barangay Magsaysay in Dinagat recorded the highest with 12.3% of the households considered as informal settlers,based on the results of the survey.

WATER AND SANITATION

The Many Faces of Poverty (Volume 2) 62 Access to safe water supply and sanitary toilet facilities is still a concern for some of the households Based on the results of the survey, 18.8% of households in the province had no access to safe water supply, corresponding to 1,437 households. Basilisa had the worst condition in terms of safe water accessibility as 33.7% of its households were reported to have no access to safe water supply during the period. It is followed by Dinagat with 22.8%, and Libjo with 19.2%. Disaggregated data further revealed that there are 10 “waterless barangays”1 in the province out of it 100 barangays. The highest proportion was recorded in Barangay Ferdinand in Loreto where 94.7% of its households did not have access to safe water supply. It was followed by Cab-ilan in Dinagat and Cuarinta in San Jose with 91.0% and 79.1%, respectively.

Meanwhile, 20.1% of the households in the province did not have access to sanitary toilet facilities. This means that 2 in every 10 households experienced this problem. Access to sanitary toilet facilities is a great concern for Tubajon where 35.3% of the households did not have access to such facilities. This is also a concern for Libjo, which recorded 34.3%. Meanwhile, barangay level data showed that the absence of sanitary toilet facilities is a very huge concern for some barangays. For instance, Barangay Santa Monica (84.1%) in Basilisa, Barangay Magsaysay (71.6%) in Libjo, and Barangay Roxas (67.7%) in Tubajon recorded very high proportions of households without sanitary toilet facilities.

BASIC EDUCATION Of children 6–16 years old, 9.7% were not in school Results of the survey showed that 17.6% of children 6–12 years old were not in elementary, 38.2% of children 13– 16 years old were not in high school, and the rate of school non-attendance among children 6–16 years old is at 9.7%. This means that almost 1 in every 10 children 6–16 years old were not enrolled in school. The highest estimate was recorded in Libjo at 10.6%. However, in terms of magnitude, San Jose (10.6%) is on the top of the list of municipalities with children 6–16 years old not attending school, followed by Tubajon (10.4%), and San Jose (10.2%). At the barangay level, higher school non-attendance were reported in some barangays in the province. Some of them include Barangay Kanihaan in Libjo (26.4%), Barangay Legaspi (24.5%) in Cagdianao, and Barangay Geotina (22.5%) in Basilisa.

INCOME AND LIVELIHOOD At least 6 in every 10 households were income poor Income poverty is a huge concern for the province as reflected in the very high poverty rate. In fact, 68.1% of households were living below the poverty line. This corresponds to 14,485 households in the province. Among all the municipalities, Basilisa had the worst condition in terms of income poverty as it exhibited the highest poverty rate at 79.6%. This means that about 8 in every 10 households were considered income poor. High rates of poverty were also estimated in the remaining municipalities. For instance, Tubajon recorded 78.7% while Libjo was at 77.3%. Barangay level data showed even worse condition. Barangay Justiniana Edera in Dinagat recorded a poverty rate of 94.9%. This means that almost all households in the barangay were income poor. It may be noted that there were 86 barangays (out of 100 barangays) where at least half of their households were considered income poor.

Of the households, 54.5% had no sufficient income to satisfy their nutritional requirements More than half of the households (54.5%) in the province were considered as food poor. In other words, these households had no sufficient income to satisfy their basic nutritional requirements. Food poverty is more prevalent in the municipality of Basilisa (68.2%), followed by Libjo (65.8%) and Tubajon (65.8%). Again, Barangay Justiniana Edera in Dinagat exhibited the highest food poverty rate at 88.9%. It should also be noted that there were 76 barangays (out of 100 barangays) where at least half of their households had no sufficient income to satisfy their basic nutritional requirements.

1 “Waterless barangays” refer to villages with less than 50% (safe) water supply coverage.

The Many Faces of Poverty (Volume 2) 63 Of the households, 5.2% experienced food shortage Despite the high food poverty rate, a relatively small proportion of household suffered from hunger during the 3- month period prior to the survey. Provincial data showed that 5.2% of the households experienced food shortage. This means that about 5 in every 100 households suffered from hunger during the reference period. Food shortage can be considered a huge concern for Basilisa where 13.9% of its households experienced hunger during the period. Meanwhile, there were four barangays where at least a quarter of their households experienced food shortage, with Barangay Columbus in Basilisa having the largest proportion at 27.5%.

Unemployment rate is relatively low at 1.3% Results of the survey showed that there were 29,991 individuals who are members of the labor force representing 31.0% of the province’s total population. Data showed that only 1.3% or 397 individuals were unemployed. Across municipalities, San Jose (2.5%) recorded the highest unemployment rate followed by Tubajon (1.8%) and Libjo (1.7%). Unemployment rate in Dinagat is very low at 0.2% as compared to other municipalities. Meanwhile, some barangays had unemployment rates higher than the provincial estimate. Barangay Navarro in Tubajon, for instance, had an unemployment rate of 8.8%, which is the highest rate among all barangays in the province.

PEACE AND ORDER The province had a crime rate of 1.7% Data on peace and order showed that there were 1,610 individuals who have been reported as victims of any type of crime. This represents 1.7% of the total population in the province. The highest crime rate is recorded in Dinagat with 2.4%. At the barangay level, crime rate is highest in Barangay Catadman in Basilisa where 9.4 % of the population had been victims of crime, followed by Justiniana Edera in Dinagat with 9.1%.

CBMS COMPOSITE INDICATOR Of the 13 basic needs2, 1.9 were not satisfied by households, on the average Based on the composite index, the households in Basilisa had the worst condition in terms of meeting the basic needs across all municipalities as it recorded an index equivalent to 2.4. This means that at least two basic needs, in general, were not satisfied by the households in the municipality. On the other hand, the smallest composite index is recorded in Loreto at 1.2. Some barangays exhibited worse conditions. Barangay Kanihaan in Libjo, for instance, had a composite index equivalent to 3.3, recorded as the highest, followed by Barangay Puerto Princesa (3.1%), and Barangay Coring in Basilisa.

2 This refers to household basic needs as reflected in the 13 CBMS core indicators that cover the following: (1) children 0-4 years old who died; (2) women who died due to pregnancy-related causes; (3) malnourished children 0-5 years old; (4) households living in makeshift housing; (5) households who are informal settlers; (6) households without access to safe water supply; (7) households without access to sanitary toilet facilities; (8) children 6–16 years old not in school; (9) households with income below the poverty threshold; (10) households with income below the food threshold; (11) households that experienced food shortage; (12) unemployment; and (13) victims of crime. A higher index would mean more unmet needs and hence, worse condition for the households.
