During their exploration they passed through the central portion of Tayabas in his march across Laguna Province to Paracale. The following years, Salcedo led his famous expeditions around the northern coast of Luzon and has visited the towns of Casiguran, Baler and Infanta. In 1574, Father Diego de Oropesa who found a group of natives with their own culture and government, founded the municipality of Gumaca, then called Bumaka. The territory which now constitutes the province of Tayabas was at one time under the jurisdiction of various provinces. In 1585 the southern and central portions, were under the jurisdiction of the province of Bonbon, sometimes called Balayan (now Batangas). The northern portion on the other hand was divided between Laguna and Nueva Ecija, while the other portion was divided into the provinces of Mindoro, Marinduque and Camarines. 3 In 1591, Tayabas was created into a province under the name of Kalilayan. Its capital was the ancient town of Tayabas, now a barrio in the town of Unisan where ancient tombs and artifacts can be found. However, by the middle of the ancient century the provincial capital was moved to what is now the municipality of Tayabas. The year 1595 marked the spiritual birth of Quezon Province with its incorporation into the Diocese of Nueva Caceres. The first Catholic Bishop of the Province was Fray Francisco Ortega, an Augustinian Friar, while its Alcalde Mayor was Don Semion Alvarez, who served from 1625 to 1655. In September 7, 1946, President Manuel A. Roxas, by virtue of Republic Act Number 14, renamed the province to Quezon in honor of the late President Manuel A Quezon, the most illustrious son of Baler, formerly part of Quezon. A. LOCATION/ LAND AREA Quezon Province is the largest in size in Southern Tagalog and sixth largest province in the Philippines. It has boundaries extending as far as the province of Aurora in the North and Camarines Sur in the South. It is bounded on the north by the province of Aurora, on the west by the province of Laguna and Rizal, on the south- west by the province of Batangas and on the south-east by the province of Camarines Norte and Camarines Sur. Tiaong is the first town via the Manila South Road about 89 kilometers from Metro Manila, while Lucena City the province’s capital is about 137 kilometers by road and 183 kilometers by railroad. The land area of Quezon province is about 870,660 hectares. B. POLITICAL SUBDIVISION The province has 40 municipalities which are divided into four (4) 4 political districts and one (1) urbanized city, the City of Lucena. It has 1,233 barangays with Lopez having the most number of barangays with ninety-five (95) while Jomalig has only five (5) and Patnanungan with only six (6) barangays. C. TOPOGRAPHY The Sierra Madre runs along the entire length of the province with Mount Banahaw, an active volcano, towering about 7,382 feet above sea level as the most prominent peak of the range. Other mountain peaks within the range from 1,500 to 6,000 feet above sea level can be found in the Bondoc Peninsula with Polilio Island, Jomalig and Alabat Island with an altitude of about 1,000 feet. E. CLIMATE The Climate of Quezon is classified as second, third and fourth type.

  • Agrarian Reform and the Difficult Road to Peace in the Philippine Countryside
    Report December 2015 Agrarian reform and the difficult road to peace in the Philippine countryside By Danilo T. Carranza Executive summary Agrarian reform and conflict in the rural areas of the Philippines are closely intertwined. The weak government implementation of the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program, inherent loopholes in the law, strong landowner resistance, weak farmers’ organisations, and the continuing espousal by the New People’s Army of its own agrarian revolution combine to make the government’s agrarian reform programme only partially successful in breaking up land monopolies. This is why poverty is still pronounced in many rural areas. The rise of an agrarian reform movement has significantly contributed to the partial success of the government’s agrarian reform programme. But the government has not been able to tap the full potential of this movement to push for faster and more meaningful agrarian reform. The agrarian reform dynamics between pro- and anti-agrarian reform actors create social tensions that often lead to violence, of which land-rights claimants are often the victims. This is exacerbated and in many ways encouraged by the government’s failure to fulfil its obligation to protect the basic human rights of land-rights claimants. This report outlines the pace and direction of agrarian reform in the Philippines and its role in fighting poverty and promoting peace in rural areas. It emphasises the importance of reform-oriented peasant movements and more effective government implementation to the success of agrarian reform. The report also asserts the need for the government and the armed left to respect human rights and international humanitarian law in promoting the full participation of land-rights claimants in shaping and crafting public policy around land rights.

GALLOWAY! 1Australian Geological Survey Organisation Canberra, ACT, Australia 20ffice of Energy Affairs, Makati Metro Manila, Philippines Abstract: During March-May 1992, the Australian Geological Survey Organisation and the Philippine Office of Energy Affairs conducted a cooperative marine seismic, gravity, magnetic, bathymetry and geochemical "sniffer" survey in four offshore Philippine basins: NE Palawan, Cuyo Platform, Tayabas Bay and Ragay Gulf. The project was funded by the Australian International Development Assistance Bureau. The survey work was conducted using the Australian Government's geoscientific vessel, Rig Seismic. The cruise achieved all its objectives and was a major success. Of the four survey areas, the Ragay Gulf is of particular interest, with complex structures, multi-phase tectonism and massive sediment infill. It was in this region that many geochemical "sniffer" seeps were located. The geochemical "sniffer" data and its C-13 and C-14 isotope analyses have indicated the presence of significant source rocks. These seeps are thermogenic in origin and have reached sufficient maturity to generate significant quantities of hydrocarbons. In the near future, the geochemical data will be integrated with the seismic data to provide clues for hydrocarbon migration. The preliminary seismic interpretation have revealed the existence of five sedimentary sub-basins with 2.5 - 5 seconds of Eocene to Recent sediments.

Findings show that in the region, Brunei has the greatest comparative advantage in oil while Indonesia and Malaysia have an advantage in animal, vegetable fats and oils, cleavage products and similar products. The Philippines is advantageously placed in electrical and electronic equipment and Singapore has a distinct advantage in organic chemicals. Among all the ASEAN6 countries, only Thailand enjoys an advantage in vehicles other than railway, tramway.

  • Site Suitability Analysis of Diversion Dams in Quezon, Philippines Using Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis and GIS

Baltazar1, Ronaldo B. Saludes1, Moises A. Dorado1, Pompe C. Sta. Cruz2 1Agrometeorology and Farm Structures Division, IAE, CEAT, UPLB 2Institute of Crop Science, CAFS, UPLB Email: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] KEY WORDS: GIS, MCDA, SSA, Irrigation, Dams ABSTRACT: Philippines as an agricultural country remains as a net importer of rice due to its lack of irrigation facilities and structures. With the prevailing effects of climate change, tremendous damage to rice production sector is inevitable if not addressed properly. Development of diversion dams and other small-scale irrigation projects is one of the adaptive measures being implemented by the government to overcome negative effects of climate change on agricultural productivity. However, diversion dam development is influenced by different factors including environmental and social factors. Also, during the site selection process for diversion dam, large volumes of environmental and geospatial data sets and information must be handled and analyzed. Hence, in this study, Multi- Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) and GIS were used to conduct site suitability analysis of diversion dams for rice irrigation in Quezon, Philippines. MCDA was employed to facilitate the decision-making process for dam site selection involving 10 criteria that were grouped into agrometeorological, physical, and economical factors. Moreover, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and consultation with experts from academe, industry, and institutions were used to determine the weights of each factors and criteria.
