CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
I. HISTORY
Zamboanga Sibugay was created on February 24, 2001 during the term of
Congressman George T. Hofer by Republic Act 8973. The creation of ZamboaNga Sibugay
as a province had a long history. It started in the 1960s when several bills were filed in the
congress such as House Bill No.17574 by the late Rep Vincenzo Sagun, HB No. 8546 of
Congresswoman Belma Cabilao, HB No. 341 thru Congressman Vicente M. Cerilles and
the Batasan Parliamentary Bill No. sponsored by parliament members (Antonio Ceniza,
Manuel M. Espaldon, Hussien Loong, Kalbi Tupay, and Minister Romulo Espaldon). All of
these bills were relegated to the recesses of the archives.
The Zamboanga Sibugay Provincial Police office was activated as a type “C” Police
Provincial Office effective September 17, 2001 pursuant to General Orders Nr. DPL 01-04
dated September 17, 2001. It was formally organized on October 16, 2001 with PSUPT
ARNULFO DEL ROSARIO PEREZ as its first Police Provincial Director.
Zamboanga Sibugay is the 79th province created in the Philippines, when its
territories were carved out from the third district of Zamboanga del Sur in 2001. Hence, the
fourth newest province, being before now-defunct Shariff Kabunsuan (October
2006), Dinagat slands (December 2006) and Davao Occidental (2013).
The province of Zamboanga Sibugay was created on November 17, 2000 pursuant
to RA 8973 comprising of sixteen (16) municipalities with 389 Barangays. It has a total land
area of 3,363.22 square kilometer or 336,332 hectares. The province is divided into 2
provincial districts. Based on the 2006 Census, the total population of the province is 572,
343 inhabitants.
Among the municipalities, Tungawan is the largest in terms of land area followed by
Siay and Titay while the smallest is Talusan. Out of the sixteen (16) municipalities, Ipil is the

only municipality classified as 3rd class and more than half of the municipalities are
considered under the 5th class category while the rest are either 4th or 6th class.

GEOGRAPHY
A. LOCATION
B. SIZE
Among the 16 municipalities, Tungawan is the largest in terms of land area which
has 47,328 hectares, followed by Titay with 35,044 hectares. The smallest municipality is
Talusan with an area of 5,816 hectares.
C. TOPOGRAPHY
1. Relief
The tallest peak in the province is Mount Silingan in Ipil reaching to about 893
meters above main sea level. Other mountains include Mount Lacauwan in R. T. Lim, Mount
Sibuguey and Tamaraw Mountains in Payao, Mount Kabasalan, Diplahan Mountain, and
Mount Logona and Mount Kalabis in the Municipality of Alicia. The major valleys in the
province are Titay Valley and Sibuguey Valley.
2. Drainage
There are 13 river channels and seven (7) marine bays or fishing grounds in
the province. Marine water stretches to about 3,664 kilometers of shorelines. This benefited
the 13 coastal municipalities with 113 coastal barangays.
Sibuguey Valley is the major flood prone area in the Province of Zamboanga
Sibugay due to the narrow and irregular characteristics of the Sibuguey River. In addition
to this, the denuded watershed in the area causes siltation in the drainage and irrigation
facilities. A proposal has already been formulated for the Integrated Flood Control Project
of Sibuguey Valley to properly manage and control flooding.

Complex, Panabotan Clay and Mountain Soil undifferentiated. Each municipalities of the
province have its own distinct soil types and composition.
Out of the total land area of the province, croplands cover 169,013.3600
hectares; forest lands cover 143,862.9700 hectares; open lands cover 42.11%; wetlands
cover 0.44% and built-up areas cover 1.89%. Generally, crop lands are planted with corn,
rice, bananas and other crops and vegetable products. Rubber, coconut and other fruit

6. Urban Areas
Built-up areas of the province cover only 7,030.8271 hectares of the total provincial area.
Included in this class are the urban centers, commercial, residential, industrial and
institutional areas. The capital town Ipil, has the most built-up areas, being the center of
trade that possessed considerable big number of establishments for commercial and other
economic activities. Other town centers of the different municipalities constitute the built up
areas of the province.
7. Strategic Areas
sanctuary and for illegal loggers and miners to expand their illegal activities. These forest
lands on the other hand could be a vast source of income for the province if properly utilized.
The long stretch of coastal area of the province is also considered as strategic
area since it could be a rich source of marine products that could provide good income.
These coastal areas could also be venues for different illegal activities like piracy, illegal
fishing, extortions, and these could be used as entry and exit points of the different threat
groups especially the Southern Philippines Secessionist Groups like the MILF, MNLF and
the ASGs. These could also be entry and exit points of smuggled goods and illegal drugs.
Another strategic area is the municipality of Ipil which is the provincial capitol
of the province. Ipil is the fastest growing municipality of the province in terms of
development becoming the commercial center of the province. Ipil is located along the
national highway going to the cities of Zamboanga, Dipolog of Zamboanga del Norte and
Pagadian City of Zamboanga del Sur.
Zamboanga Sibugay climate is moderately normal (climate type III). Annual rainfall
varies from 1,599 to 3,500 millimetres (63.0 to 137.8 in). Temperature is relatively warm and
constant throughout the year ranging from 22 to 35 °C (72 to 95 °F). The province is situated

CHAPTER III
ECONOMY
The leading industries are in the areas of semi-processed rubber, rice and corn
milling, ordinary food processing, wood and rattan furniture making, dried fish and squid
processing, and home-made food processing. New industries include concrete products,
garments, wax and candle factories, lime making, and other home and cottage industries.
Major crops produced include rice, corn, coconuts, rubber, fruit trees, vegetables,
tobacco, coffee, cacao, and root crops. Livestock and poultry productions are predominantly
small-scale and backyard operations. Coal mining in large and small scale and precious
metal mining in small scale category are likewise present in some areas of the province.
The local government is pushing for the extension of the fish port in Taytay Manobo
in the municipality of Naga in order to expand its mariculture and fishing industries. The
local economy is conducive to extensive mariculture, which is the farming of aquatic plants
and animals in salt water. Thus, mariculture represents a sub-set of the larger field of
aquaculture, which involves the farming of both fresh-water and marine organisms. The
major categories of mariculture species are seaweeds, mollusks, crustaceans, and finfish.
As of early 2009, The Philippines has 40 Mariculture Parks in operation and out of
the 11 in Mindanao, one is located in Tungawan, Province of Zamboanga Sibugay.
Mariculture parks operate much like industrial estates on land, with investors setting up or

renting fish cages to grow high-value marine species such as bangus, lapu-lapu, siganids,
seaweeds and other high-value aquatic organisms. Mariculture parks are not only practical
and economical but are also ecologically friendly. There is no need to cut a single mangrove
tree in raising bangus, in a sea cage, and is also more economical because it would cost
only about P150,000 to put up a sea cage while development cost for a hectare of fishpond
would reach about P1 million, according to a recent Philippine Senate hearing.
Additional Senate data encourages that mariculture yields can reach as much as five
tons in a 10x10x 5 meter-sea cage inside a mariculture park, which is the same as in a one-
hectare fish pond. With production cost of P70.00-P75.00 per kilo, a fish farmer could easily
earn some P90,000.00 per cropping per cage or a total of P 180,000.00 for two cropping
periods per year. Additionally, to further increase earnings, a fish farmer can also grow
danggit or samaral in sea cages in tandem with bangus under a system called aqua-
polyculture. After one cropping with 1,680 pieces fingerlings, the danggit catch could reach
an estimated 100 kilos, which could easily fetch an additional cash of P8,800.00.

Sibugay is a jewel to behold. Like a shimmering pendant with fantastically shifting hues,
seemingly dependent on the mood of Mother Earth, beautiful Olutanga ornaments the
western tip of the province’s rich vast land. Its beaches are fantastic. Pulo Laum beach is
a major attraction in the island. The snake sanctuary taken care of by Manong Tero has
been visited many times by adventurous tourists in the past. Its vast sea is also rich with
marine resources like fishes, lobster, oyster, the famous taclobo and many more.
Olutanga was formerly a regular barangay of Alicia municipality, but was elevated
into a municipal status on Nov 17, 1957 by virtue of EO # 274 enunciated by the late
President Carlos P Garcia. Then on May 18, 1967, it was created into a municipality by
virtue of RA 4876. The first mayor is Hon Eufemio Quijano who only served for one term.
The name Olutanga was attributed to an ethnic group, the Samals (Lutaos) who
called themselves “Lutangan”. As the years went by, the tribe multiplied in numbers. Traces
of their existence can still be found today along the strategic seashores of the island. Before

the Spaniards came, the place was inhabited by a native tribe, under the leadership at
Panglima Santikan and his wife Indah Dindah. This tribe were known as “LUTANGAN”, the
origin of the name of the island Olutanga. The main economic activities of this tribe was
fishing and some “slash and burn” farming. The island then was dominantly covered with
virgin and verdant forest. The Lutangans, because of their nomadic character and love of
the sea, wondered from coast to coast around the island in search of rich fishing grounds.
It was only during the Spanish era, that the Lutangans had started to live semi – permanently
along the sea shores. Then as years passed, the Tausogs, Samals and the other tribes
came to live in the island, which was later named Olutanga after the Lutangan tribe. The
first Christians who came to the island were hunters in search of wild life such as wild boars,
deer, tamaraws, etc.
It composed 19 barangays with a total land area of 11,330 hectares. A fourth class
municipality and partially urban, Olutanga has a total population of 33, 671 as of 2015

MUICIPALITY OF TITAY
According to the annals of Titay’s history, the ray of progress dawned on this town in
1935 when three Ilocano families from Nueva Ecija settled in the clearing that they made in
the forests here. Upon their return to their hometown they invited friends and relatives to
their newfound home that abounded with fertile lands and lush vegetation. Words spread
out to neighboring settlements on the opportunities available in the valleys of Titay.
Thenceforth, settlers from both neighboring and far places came to settle and farm in the
area. The place became known as Sitio Taytay. The term “taytay” means bridge to the
Subanen and Kalibugans which they used to refer to foot paths which were then commonly
seen in front of the huts of the natives. The name Taytay was later shortened to Titay. Titay
was created as a municipality of the Province of Zamboanga del Sur on May 24, 1960
through Executive Order No. 395 which was issued by the president at that time, President
Carlos P. Garcia. It was declared as a separate municipality on May 24, 1959 by virtue of
EO No 395.

J, ASSESSMENT
WMRPC thru its MRGU will continue to assists all the GFs in their
IPO/Recovery Works. They will sustain their intelligence gathering and initiate propaganda
mileage to counter the series of surrender of YM including its supporters and sympathizers.
They will remain evasive from the government operations in their respective
GF operational areas. Since their merging with the MRGU, no reports have been monitored
on their presence in their previous mass base for five months (May-September 2019),
because they cannot sustain their activities with their current strength of 6 members.
But still they will continue their IPO works as members of MRGU since they
cannot stand on their own as a Guerilla Front.
GF-13 will continue to re-establish mass bases in the areas of Titay, ZSP.
They will sustain their recruitment activity.
The group of GF 13 will still be waiting for further assistance from the other
GF or MRGU of WMRPC. They might be merging with SYQ “KALAW” while, the area of GF
FELICIANO B is vacated and GF 13 is now on its recovery efforts with the Pltn KALAW of
MRGU in the same areas.

2. Perform an Assessment for each Factor. Determine how each factor can have an
impact on CMO. What will happen if issues in this factor do not get resolved? How
can CMO mitigate the potential negative effects of these issues?
With cautious optimism, Zamboanga Peninsula treads toward its most logical
destination of evolving into a major player in the national economic arena. The province is
eyeing at making a more significant contribution to the country’s Gross Domestic Product
(GDP), having a bigger participation in the export market, and firming up stronger trade links
with other regions and with the economies of Southeast Asia.
Over the next decade, the overall development agenda for the Province of
Zamboanga Sibugay entails a more serious investment on physical infrastructures and
human capital, the first being aimed at forging greater physical and economic integration of
the region’s cities and provinces with the rest of the country; the second, being geared at
building people’s competencies and capabilities to face new market challenges, adapt to
changes in technology, and contend with higher technical manpower demands of a growing
economy.
With the given area study on the Province of Zamboanga Sibugay, there are six (6)
identified factors which makes the province rich in diverse culture, progress and
development such as geography, economy, sociology, political factors & peace and order.
With its vast area, it is expected that there are lots of communities situated in far-
flung areas which might need attention from the government to address the issues which
are prevalent in their respective areas. These IP communities are vulnerable for recruitment
through agitation, organizing and mobilizing strategy of the Communist Terrorist Groups
(CTGs). If this cannot be resolved, there will be more exploited masses who may join in
their armed struggle fighting against the government. Thus, through intensified CMO efforts,
we could bridge the gap regarding delivery of the basic needs of the community from the
concerned agencies in the government amd other stakeholders. With this manner, we could
isolate the IP community from the propaganda of the CTGs.
and small scale and precious metal mining in small scale category are likewise present in
some areas of the province.
With the said economic activities of the province, CMO has a big role in protecting
the labor workers from different industries or businesses from CTGs infiltration in order to
isolate the labor workers from AOM strategy of the CTGs. If the CTGs are successful in the
organization of the labor workers, there would be a big possibility that the or business
companies in the province will be shut down due massive protest rallies and strikes of the
labor workers. Thus, intensified stakeholder’s engagement from the business owners,
workers and other stakeholders is the key to prevent the infiltration of the CTGs in the
different business establishments in the province.
With the given situation from current and previous years, there is a development on
poverty incidence in Zamboanga Sibugay. The challenge is the sustainment of the
downtrend of poverty incidence in the said province for a bigger sustainable development,
thus, there is a huge possibility that the constituents of Zamboanga Sibugay especially the
marginalized sectors will join the armed and legal struggle. Thus, CMO activities should be
intensified to avoid this thing to happen by engaging inter-agency coordination in order to
immediately address the concerns of the constituents of Zamboanga Sibugay through their
respective Local Government Units (LGUs).
On political factors, the Provincial Governor being the province chief executive
exercises administrative control and supervision over the provincial affairs. In support to
the national development efforts the provincial government has been sending
representatives to attend and participate in development training, seminars, conferences,
and the likes. The Governor as the Chief Executive heads the Provincial Government, and
the Vice-Governor heads the legislative body. As a local government unit, the Provincial
Government is made up of 16 offices/departments with distinct functions and
responsibilities.
It is imperative for the CMO operators to engage the local chief executives (LCEs)
from provincial to barangay local government unit within the Area of Responsibility (AOR)
in order for them to collaborate with the programs and services intended for their
constituents especially the communities situated in a Geographically Isolated and
Disadvantaged Areas (GIDAs). CMO operators should do their best efforts that the safe
delivery of programs and services will be given to the affected sectors based on the issues
and concerns of the community during the immersion of the soldiers being part of the
Community Support Program of the Philippine Army. With collaborative efforts from the
government agencies, LGUs, and other stakeholders, there will be a lot of developments in

conflict affected areas to achieve the aim of the AFP and Filipino nation as well to end the
local communist armed conflict.
On peace and order, there was a Zamboanga Sibugay Provincial Police Office (ZSP
PPO) which is tasked to address the several criminalities in the province such as illegal
drugs, theft, murder, robbery, kidnapping and other crimes. Likewise, the police force
supports the AFP in eradicating the communist terrorists. The prevailing peace and order
situation in the province of Zamboanga Sibugay is normal and peaceful despite the threats
posed by the Communist Terrorist Group (CTG) and Criminal Gangs (CG). Aside from
these, there are also groups considered as Groups of Special Concern due to the existing
peace talk with the government, these were the 113 Base Command, Western Mindanao
th
Front of the MILF and the Zamboanga Sibugay State Revolutionary Committee of the
MNLF.

To term that people accept any government programs could be another way
of saying that Cooperation among civilians and government is key for a Sustainable Societal
Development. Social science as a discipline recognizes in global principles, the importance
of understanding how cooperation uplifts and positively affects people within groups,
whether in small groups, organizational, and societal. Reasons and factors behind the
possibility of people to cooperatively accept any government program include the following
conditions: (1) When they are provided with a clear blueprint and program which promotes
equity and inclusivity. When people coming from all walks of life come together and promote
equity and inclusiveness in communities, they get to provide balance and empowerment for
the marginalized and excluded members in the society. As government and people work
together, resources may be allocated equally and accordingly to all parties involved in
achieving the program’s objectives. Inclusivity can also mean helping the least-regarded
classes in the society to engage and allow them to see themselves as vital in this process.
In this way, they also provide value and recognition to their rights and needs, which are only
enjoyed by people with privilege.; (2) The greater good within the societal scope. People
cooperate and accept the government’s programs when they feel secured, as well as
providing a sense of “societal responsibility”. When people value and recognize that
programs are not only for their own personal welfare but are in a way or another, either
building or breaking communities together, they see abiding and obeying to public mandates
as a serious societal engagement that includes something that is bigger than themselves.
Establishing and maintaining the common good require the cooperative efforts of some,
often of many, people.
With greater effort provided for dialogues and cooperation, each and everyone
can effectively play a successful sustainable development which is rooted in a principle of
strong, inclusive and integrated partnerships from all partners (Ki-moon, 2017).
2. What is the possibility that the people will be recruited in the following:
a. Insurgency
There are terrorists who do not seek a much excellent political system but
rather one that provides them empowerment through authority or power, or on the contrary,
gives them more liberation to do things on their own. They then turn into insurgents because
their needs don't seem to have been fulfilled by some existing affairs of the states. For this
simple yet profound reason, insurgencies are found not only to be political, but can also
result in deep and highly psychological reasons of unmet psychological needs, which
happens to be more powerful and useful than for political disciplines.
b. Violent Extremism
A huge study and literature scope on terrorism exists yet some of the most
prolific authorities on the topic express discontent on generally poor state of data and
methodology in the field. It’s proper and definite meaning remains a speculation, unknown,
or just full of uncertainty provided its scope and limitation.
Yet however, numerous risk and protective factors alike were thought to be
associated with radicalization and in more extreme means, Violent Extremism. In some
cases, these risk factors and protective factors emerged from analyses that compared
individuals who had engaged in extremist violence with control groups of individuals who
had not. In these cases, there is evidence that in the absence of protective factors, it is more
likely to be associated with violent outcomes, and vice versa with risk factors.
To answer the question, there are two lenses in seeing why people engage in
Violent Extremism: Individual and Contextual Factors.
The individual may engage in such act as s/he is experiencing the following:
Identity Conflict which by being drawn to a strong group identity can be resolved, Feeling of
lack of meaning in life where s/he they are provided with a fresh perspective on being invited
to attract to a belief system which may provide answers, Wanting Status which gets resolved
by opportunities being provided to prove oneself to be strong, brave and heroic, Wanting
company and to belong by being in a tight-knit group, Desiring adventure by joining
dangerous or illegally violent activities, Having experienced trauma by being drawn to
vulnerability with people who have same desires of wanting revenge, and Having strong
religious beliefs which can be drawn by those who claim to be guided by religion but is
actually otherwise embedded by a faith who doesn’t do justice.
Some shared reasons and factors may include the following: Stressors,
Societal discrimination or injustice by being promised of recompense against those who
discriminate or enable oppression, exposure to violent extremist groups where they view
violent extremists as less extreme because of proximity which causes less serious regard
for conscience and a faith that does justice.
c. Crime Syndicate
The nature of people who are usually recruited and engaged in such activities
may come from various reasons and motives, but may usually fall within one of the following:
(1) Identity or Recognition-to be part of an organized crime allows members to achieve a
level of status s/he feels unreachable outside the gang culture, provided the moral which
gets boosted coming from the feeling of being part of something bigger than themselves;
(2) Protection-many people, most especially young ones, join they gang area and is
therefore subject to violence by rivals. By becoming part of the pack, they are guaranteed a
sense of support in case of attack and retaliations; (3) Brotherhood-Majority of Syndicate

members provide a social function to the group as though they are an extension of the family
and provides each member a sense of companionship in the headquarters environment; (4)
Some just really get provided particular feelings of psychological support when they engage
in narcotics activities and benefit from the group’s profits and companion. While for many
reasons they get to participate in Crime Syndicates, any criminal groups would also more
likely attract people who seek for intellectual stimulation. This also initiates criminal activities
against wealthy personalities in target identified municipalities, for the sake of wealth and
profit.
