Chapter 5 Existing Conditions of Flood and Disaster Management in Bangsamoro
Comprehensive capacity development project for the Bangsamoro Final Report Chapter 5. Existing Conditions of Flood and Disaster Management in Bangsamoro CHAPTER 5 EXISTING CONDITIONS OF FLOOD AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT IN BANGSAMORO 5.1 Floods and Other Disasters in Bangsamoro 5.1.1 Floods (1) Disaster reports of OCD-ARMM The Office of Civil Defense (OCD)-ARMM prepares disaster reports for every disaster event, and submits them to the OCD Central Office. However, historic statistic data have not been compiled yet as only in 2013 the report template was drafted by the OCD Central Office. OCD-ARMM started to prepare disaster reports of the main land provinces in 2014, following the draft template. Its satellite office in Zamboanga prepares disaster reports of the island provinces and submits them directly to the Central Office. Table 5.1 is a summary of the disaster reports for three flood events in 2014. Unfortunately, there is no disaster event record of the island provinces in the reports for the reason mentioned above. According to staff of OCD-ARMM, main disasters in the Region are flood and landslide, and the two mainland provinces, Maguindanao and Lanao Del Sur are more susceptible to disasters than the three island provinces, Sulu, Balisan and Tawi-Tawi.

Mitigating Localized Conflict in Mindanao and Sulu Through Rapid Response of Local Non-State Actors
Mitigating Localized Conflict in Mindanao and Sulu through Rapid Response of Local Non-State Actors QUARTERLY REPORT January 1, 2010 to March 31, 2010 (Cooperative Agreement No.: AID 492-A-00-08-00008-00) Submitted by 36 Lapu-Lapu Avenue, Magallanes Village Makati City, Philippines May 3, 2010 Mitigating Localized Conflict in Mindanao and Sulu through Rapid Response of Local Non-State Actors This report covers activities from January 1, 2010 to March 31, 2010 under the ―Mitigating Localized Conflict in Mindanao and Sulu through Rapid Response of Local Non-State Actors‖ Program of The Asia Foundation. The project is supported by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) under Cooperative Agreement No. AID 492-A-00-08- 00008-00 and runs from October 1, 2008 to September 30, 2010. I. Project Background In the conflict-affected areas of Mindanao and the Sulu archipelago, violence is a frequent, unpredictable, and often highly localized phenomenon. The region has multiple insurgent movements, including the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), Moro National Liberation front (MNLF), New People’s Army (NPA—the armed wing of the Communist Party of the Philippines), and the Rebolusyonaryong Partido ng Manggagawa sa Mindanao (Revolutionary Party of Workers in Mindanao or RPMM). The presence of these insurgent groups poses a serious threat to stability in the region, and the heavy military presence in the region is a response to this threat. Although the Muslim separatist conflict dominates the media, research supported by The Asia Foundation shows that clan violence (or rido) in Mindanao is actually more pertinent in the daily lives of the people. -

The government Tsucceeded in capturing the most strategic camps of the MILF. The rebels, having been signifi- cantly weakened, were forced to retreat and to negotiate for peace. Ceasefire declarations from both the Moro Islamic Liberation Front and the Philippine Armed Forces followed soon after the signing of a General Framework for the Resumption of Peace Talks in March 2001. This end to the hostilities also signaled the end to the displacement of entire communities that were caught in the crossfire. Further agreements on the mechanics of the cessation of hostilities were also forged to manage tensions in the field between the still heavily-armed contingents of the MILF and the government troops. This encouraged the return of displaced populations to their homes and made it feasible to start the rehabilitation of communities even as a stable peace settlement was still being worked out. -
Introduction
Republic of the Philippines Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION Division of Maguindanao-I Shariff Aguak, Maguindanao CHAPTER 1: BACKGROUND OF MAGUINDANAO-1 DIVISION EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT PLAN (DEDP) ( as of March, 2017) Introduction History of Maguinadano Maguindanao means “people of flooded plains”. It is also refer to its native inhabitants, many of them living along the river banks. Mindanao itself was derived from the word “danao” meaning “foundation of a river, lake or sea. Shariff Mohamad Kabungsuan, (the first Sultan of Maguindanao) of Johore, a Malaysian state, located at the Southern portion of Peninsula Malaysia is one of the most developed states in Malaysia. Shariff Mohamad Kabungsuan introduced Islam in Maguindanao (Mindanao) at the end of 15th century. He subsequently married to a local princess from Iranon tribe of Malabang and Maguindanao Province, and established the Sultanate of Maguindanao. The Cotabato Valley formed the sultanate’s heartland but its influence extended to Zamboanga Peninsula, Sarangani Bay and Davao. The Spaniards launched expedition to subdue the area throughout the colonial era but they never gained control of the region until the middle of the 19th century. During the American period, Cotabato became a district of Moro Province created in 1903 and the province of a Department of Mindanao and Sulu in 1914. In 1942, the Japanese Imperial forces entered, what is now Maguindanao. In 1945, Maguindanao was liberated by Allied Philippine Commonwealth Troops and Maguindanao Guerilla units led by its valiant and invulnerable Datus and warriors. Decades passed by, the name Mindanao became popular than Maguindanao. In Central Mindanao, Cotabato province once known as Cotabato Empire became progressive and known of its vast and fertile valleys and plains. -

It is widely recognized, in both poor and wealthy nations, that government health services alone cannot adequately address the problem of tuberculosis. The active participation of the communities themselves can help improve case detection and treatment compliance, particularly in difficult and hard-to-reach rural and urban areas.
