Lala, a Booming and Promising Place in LDN

Way back 1950’s Lala was known to populate with mangroves and other big trees which look
like a forest. It was inhabited with less population and uneducated individuals. However Lala is bounded
with coastal areas but still underdeveloped. Three decades after Lala gradually improve and
continuously developed until it become progressive nowadays.

Lala town has a big development improvement because of widening of national highways,
cemented rural streets and additional construction of farm to market roads. Abundance of commercial
and agricultural productions also contributes to the development of the town. For public safety the local
government employed traffic aid, Barangay tanod and all barangays along the highway.

Of all the barangays in Lala, Maranding is the most famous and progressive place due to
commercial and business establishment like, Jollibee, Mang Inasal, Chowking and other fast food chains.
Likewise it is also the biggest population due to many establishments of schools and hospital and other
public services.

In the coastal part of the town are widely developed fishponds and other fishing projects. Most
of the people living there are earning much for their livelihood. More likely the production of prawns
and crabs has been exporting to other Asian countries.

The produce coming from the upper part of the town such as root crops, corn, vegetables and
fruits also helped better livelihood of the locals. On the lower part of the town is suited for rice and
livestock productions and other income generating projects. Consequently, these all enhance the
livelihood of the people.

Who would expect that this small town of Lala become the number one highest income in the
province of Lanao del Norte and more likely becoming a promising city in the province of Lanao del
Norte. Due to concerted efforts of all local government units and incorporation of the public and private
entities has contributed to the good development and peace and order of this municipality.
