Entomological investigations were conducted in four remaining lym- phatic filariasis endemic provinces of Panay Island, The Philippines to determine mosquito species present in these areas and to identify host preference and biting activity of Aedes (Finlaya) poicilius Theobald, primary vector of nocturnal periodic Wuchereria bancrofti in The Philippines. Sampling techniques targeted nocturnally active mosquito species using a carabao-baited trap (CBT) and human-landing collection (HLC), the latter taking place from 06:00 to 12:00 PM. A total of 25,536 mosquitoes comprising 42 species and 7 genera were collected from CBT, whilst HLC acquired 6,486 mosquitoes comprising 28 species and 5 genera. Three known or potential vectors of human filarial were collected, namely, Aedes poicilius, Culex quinquefasciatus and Mansonia uniformis. The peak landing (biting) activity for Ae. poicilius was between 09:00 and 11:00 PM. Comparisons between CBT and HLC yields showed this species to be more zoophilic. Based on observed mosquito behavior and interviews with residents, vector-host contact was promoted by the local practice of staying overnight in makeshift shelters in high risk areas without adequate protection against mosquito bites. Results of this survey will augment information for integrating vector control and mass drug administration into an island-wide lymphatic filariasis elimination program.

Report No. 3 – Population, Land Area, and Population Density is among the series of publications that present the results of the POPCEN 2015. This publication provides information on the population size, land area, and population density by region, province, highly urbanized city, and city/municipality based on the data from population census conducted by the PSA in the years 2000, 2010, and 2015; and data on land area by city/municipality as of December 2013 that was provided by the Land Management Bureau (LMB) of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). Also presented in this report is the percent change in the population density over the three census years. The population density shows the relationship of the population to the size of land where the population resides.

  • Requirements for Governance in a Poverty-Reduction Project
    CASE 2 REQUIREMENTS FOR GOVERNANCE IN A POVERTY-REDUCTION PROJECT LOCALIZING THE CIDSS PROGRAM IN BALETE, AKLAN Philip Tuaño 1. INTRODUCTION Many development practitioners hold that strong involvement of the community and of local governance institutions increases the effectiveness of poverty-alleviation projects. Community involvement is important because the community is usually better at identifying the main problems of its poor and pinpointing solutions. However, it is not as easy to recognize those aspects of local governance that result in better anti-poverty programs. In some cases, local governments might even hinder efforts to improve the living conditions of the poor, especially when corrupt or misguided local officials capture community institutions and use them for their profit. This case study discusses the experience of the municipality of Balete, Aklan Province, in running the Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services (CIDSS) program of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD). CIDSS is part of the so-called 'convergence strategy' for poverty alleviation.1 It belongs to a basket of projects that include Agrarian Reform Communities, certificate of ancestral domain communities, and other communities of the basic sectors such as farmers and fisherfolk. Aklan considers itself the first local government unit in the country to localize CIDSS implementation mainly through local funding. This study uses both primary and secondary data. The case study writer interviewed key informants from among local government officials, including the provincial governor, the provincial planning and development officer, the provincial social welfare and development officer, the municipal mayor, the municipal social worker, the municipal planning and development officer and the CIDSS worker.
