Your will be learning the representative folk arts and designs from the islands of Panay, Negros, Guimaras, Siquijor, Bohol, Cebu, Leyte, and Samar. What’s In Visayan Islands, also called Visayas or Bisayas, island group, central Philippines. The Visayan group consists of seven large and several hundred smaller islands clustered around the Visayan, Samar, and Camotes seas. The seven main islands are Bohol , Cebu , Leyte , Masbate , Negros , Panay , and Samar. These islands and their smaller neighbours make up the central group of the Philippine archipelago. High mountains characterize most of the Visayan Islands with the exception of Samar and Masbate, which are exceedingly hilly. Panay has extensive eastern plains where sugarcane and rice are farmed. Negros has large western plains on which sugarcane is grown. Corn (maize), coconuts, bananas, tobacco, abaca, and root crops also are widely grown, and fishing is also important in the Visayas. The densely populated Visayan island group constitutes an ethnolinguistic region defined by the dominance of the three major Visayan languages: Cebuano (which is the mother tongue of about one-fifth of the Philippines’ population), Hiligaynon, and Waray-Waray. Cebuano speakers live mainly on Cebu, Bohol, eastern Negros, and western Leyte. The Hiligaynon are concentrated on Panay, western Negros, and Masbate, while the Waray-Waray are found mainly on Samar and eastern Leyte. The two major Visayan urban centres are Cebu City on Cebu and Iloilo City on Panay. 7 A short glimpse from the past The Visayas was first visited by the Europeans in 1521 when Ferdinand Magellan landed in the Philippines. He befriended the raja of Cebu but failed to win allegiance of Lapu-Lapu in the nearby island of Mactan.

It has been reported primarily from only four main islands of the Philippine archipelago. We have studied it extensively for the past three decades. Using data from 1991 to 1998 as best representing the current status of the species on the island of Mindanao, we estimated the mean nearest-neighbour distances between breeding pairs, with remarkably little variation, to be 12.74 km (n = 13 nests plus six pairs without located nests, se = ±0.86 km, range = 8.3–17.5 km). Forest cover within circular plots based on nearest-neighbour pairs, in conjunction with estimates of remaining suitable forest habitat (approximately 14 000 km2), yield estimates of the maximum number of breeding pairs on Mindanao ranging from 82 to 233, depending on how the forest cover is factored into the estimates. The Philippine Eagle Pithecophaga jefferyi is a large insufficient or unreliable data, and inadequately forest raptor considered to be one of the three reported methods.

Less than 250 adults in the wild, populations highly fragmented and declining; IUCN 2009) (last assessed Range: Philippines in 1996). Taxonomic Status The Philippine crocodile was described in 1935 by Karl Schmidt on the basis of a type specimen and three paratypes from the island of Mindoro (Schmidt 1935, 1938). Schmidt also described the closely related New Guinea freshwater crocodile (Crocodylus novaeguineae) in 1928 and later made a comparison of morphological differences between C. mindorensis, C. novaeguineae and C. porosus, maintaining C. mindorensis as a separate species (1956). However the Philippine crocodile has long been treated as C. novaeguineae mindorensis, a sub-species of the New Guinea crocodile, by other authorities. Hall (1989) provided new evidence of the distinctness of the Philippine crocodile and nowadays C. mindorensis is generally treated as a full species endemic to the Philippines. Figure 1.

Students of Southeast Asian history have had little to say about the historical role played by the Chinese mestizo in that region. Although studies of the Chinese in Southeast Asia have devoted some attention to the position of native-born Chinese as opposed to immigrant Chinese, the native-born Chinese of mixed Chinese- native ancestry is rarely singled out for specific treatment. Perhaps this is because in most parts of Southeast Asia the Chinese mestizos (to use the Philippine term for persons of mixed Chinese-native ancestry) have not been formally and legally recognized as a separate group — one whose membership is strictly defined by genealogical considerations rather then by place of birth, and one which, by its possession of a unique combination of cultural characteristics, could be easily distinguished from both the Chinese and the native com­ munities.

    International Journal of Development and Sustainability ISSN: 2186-8662 – www.isdsnet.com/ijds Volume 8 Number 9 (2019): Pages 532-543 ISDS Article ID: IJDS19032401 Postharvest assessment of rice production in Northern Samar Philippines Marcos E. Bollido * Department of Agriculture and other related Programs, Northwest Samar State University, Barangay Erenas, San Jorge, Samar, Philippines Abstract The study conducted to determine the rice harvest for 2011-2012 agricultural season, harvest contribution to the food availability of the households until the next harvest, identified the main constraints facing by the farmers during the season and assess mitigating factors to overcome constraints. Survey revealed that 59% of farmers were land tenants, tenants families were the subsistence farmers belongs to marginalized group, while 20% of farmers indicated they were landowners of the land they cultivated and 21% of farmers were landless group like the laborer, carpenters, tricycle drivers and other works. The average production per hectare was 20.71 bags. The main factors that has contributed to very low production was the attack from pests and diseases (84%), the major pests are black bug and rats. Inadequate farming technique were farmers still applying traditional farming system (trampling) due to lack of appropriate training, lack of capital to pay for proper plugging and irrigation, crop maintenance and fertilization. Farmers own produced palay were lasted only an average of 6 months. Other source of food were among the strategies to allow farmers to live up to the next harvest were purchased local food in the market or store (71%), domestic laborer or daily worker (49%), taking debts from relatives (37%), selling of livestock (15%), relaying on gift (9%) and consume the seeds intended for planting (9%).

  • Summary of National Fact Finding Report on the Killing of Fr. Cecilio Lucero on 6 September 2009, Fr. Cecilio
    Summary of National Fact Finding Report on the Killing of Fr. Cecilio Lucero On 6 September 2009, Fr. Cecilio P. Lucero, 48 years old, a Roman Catholic priest of the Diocese of Catarman in Samar, was killed by 4-5 unidentified armed men. While travelling in a Toyota van from the town of Allen to the town of Catubig in Northern Samar, Fr. Lucero together with his police escort Police Officer Eugene Bation and an electrician named Isidro Miras were ambushed by at least five persons armed with high-powered rifles at 8:30 in the morning. Isidro Miras was wounded and still in a state of shock while Police Officer Eugene Bation emerged from the ambush literally unscathed. Cecilio Lucero was the ninth child and the youngest son among the twelve children of Francisco Lucero and Milagros Pelito both from Northern Samar. He finished his college degree at the Sacred Heart Seminary in Palo, Leyte and then proceeded to the San Carlos Seminary in Cebu for his theological studies. He was ordained priest on 14 September 1987. He then was assigned as administrator of San Roque Parish before becoming parish priest of another parish in the Diocese of Catarman. Two of Fr. Lucero's brothers chose the path of politics. Wilmar Lucero became Northern Samar representative to the Lower House of Congress and Antonio Lucero is the incumbent vice-governor of Northern Samar. Fr. Cecil, as he was fondly called by his parishioners and friends, was known to be a serious and disciplined person, and very vocal with his views.
