FOREWORD
The Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP) is a municipal document that embodies specific proposals for guiding, regulating growth and/or development
of Anini-y for a ten-year period from 2006 to 2015 anchored on its vision and mission, towards improved quality of life of its inhabitants and sustainable
development of its communities. The land use plan allocates and delineates different land uses in a community and the structures built upon them. The
term “comprehensive” means that the plan not only encompasses all geographical parts of the local government unit but also includes the different sectors
such as physical, environmental, social, economic, administrative and fiscal matters.
The municipality’s political boundaries including the component barangays delineate the planning area. As vital data are determined data gathering
followed whereupon data processing and analysis are based. Some data provided by line agencies and TWG members were put in matrices and projected
for 10 years. The initial phase of data gathering coincided with the rebuilding of the entire municipal hall, such that pertinent files and documents were
misplaced or destroyed by rains when the ceiling collapsed. Data validation, Technical Working Group (TWG) members” technical writing skills, 3
barangays maps which polygon did not closed, map preparation and absence of fishery data contributed much to the delay in bringing to completion the
various sectoral studies. All this were aggravated by the very limited funds of the municipality.
Plan presentation starts with an introduction followed by the historical development of Anini-y and then by its physical and demographic profiles. Sectoral
plans are presented thus: social sector and its sub-sectors (education, housing, health, social welfare services, sports and recreation, and protective
services); economic sector and its sub-sectors (agriculture, forestry, commerce, industry, and tourism); infrastructure and utilities sector (power, water,
transportation, and communication); land use and environmental management; and, local administration.
Each sector through its sub-sectors has its own profile, analysis and development needs. Sectoral goals and objectives were formulated with
recommended policy measures and corresponding strategies for its achievement. Finally, programs and projects are purposely identified.

TO MY BELOVED ANINI-YANS!
Today marks a new beginning for us all as we now have what we call our very own bible in the area of proper land use and sustainable
development.
The COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN is a product of earnest and sincere desire to develop Anini-y in a manner that is ecologically sound. In
other words, land usage that is attuned to the needs of our environment, thus making sustained development attainable.
This plan will serve as the beacon or the benchmark for our people to the proper utilization of our God given resources so that the succeeding
generations will also have the chance to enjoy what we have now. This document is also in answer to the “INCONVENIENT TRUTH” that what we have is
not infinite or inestimable resources ditto the problem with global warming.
Let this Plan guide us and the future generations of Anini-yans for a better tomorrow. Lastly, I would like to commend and congratulate the people
behind this land use plan whose dedication and perseverance made the Comprehensive Land Use Plan a reality and not a mere dre am as some critics
would dare say.

sectoral reports, municipal CLUP and the components of municipal CLUP. In the physical features, it includes the natural features like the geographic
profile, topography and slope classifications of the municipality. He said that Anini-y is basically uplands with 86.815% of its total land area of
6617.2180Ha is above the 18% slope. He then presented the slope classification and its recommended use. On the demographic characteristics, he
discussed on the factors of growth and trend, age groups, labor force and income, among others. Population and its characteristics serve as the base data
for the other sectors/sub-sectors in the estimation of needs/requirements of the population in the area. He then presented the different tables of each
sectors.
In the presentation of the tables for each sector, there was a suggestion that the sector be presented by the knowledgeable person or the head of
each respective sector and to be specific instead of municipal wide.

asked if this could be included in the Plan. She said that the municipality should make a representation from Tobias Fornier to return the said barangay to
the municipality.
Engr. Tamon said that the plans could not be changed but suggested that to add the new proposal and to reflect what the municipality had been
doing to recover it.

Ms. Huelar asked why Simsim was not included in Poblacion.
Mr. Raba replied that they got the date at the Assessor’s Office.

Mr. Raba said that to declare it as eco-tourism spot.
Next presented were the different maps. Several comments were also made like the shape of the slope, the forest area that does not jibe with the

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Land Use Planning in itself is a strategy to optimize the use of both public and private lands and to assist in resolving conflicts arising from the competition for
a share of the Local Government Unit (LGU) limited land resource arising from the continuous increase in population and development requirements. In
general, development planning of LGUs with agricultural resource base lies more in enhancing and preserving this asset. In areas where potential for growth
is nil, then the strategy that will be developed would focus on how to maintain and conserve the resource.
This guiding principle directed the planners to “aggressively exploit” its province-wide comparative tourism advantage and adapted the S-O Strategy: Anini-y
Tourism Polygon Establishment with Strong Fishery and Livestock-Focused Initiatives. Indeed, the agriculture base of Anini-y is not as extensive and as rich
as that of most of the Antique municipalities. Such realization of the inherent state of land and/or quality of the agricultural resources in Anini-y tested the
resilience of data gatherers and limits of imaginations of the planners and the resource persons in planning a sustainable agri-based municipal economy.
Notwithstanding, the study of this resource base identified the gaps and opportunities that will help in stretching its present capability.
Likewise, all sectors were scrutinized giving due consideration on development needs that impinge on projected development scenarios that revolves around
Tourism where the municipality enjoys the most in terms of comparative advantage over any other municipalities in Antique.
Data processing and analysis brought forth the following significant findings:
➢ DEMOGRAPHY
Population growth tapered down in the 90’s due to out-migration. Anini-y’s population in 1995 was 18,657 with annual growth rate of 2.0571 and
male-female ratio of 1:1. The 2000 NSO report of 19,623 Anini-y residents in 3,363 households (HH) validated the decreasing trend in population
growth, and reinforced by the 2004 Family Census by the Anini-y Rural Health Unit (RHU) of a municipal population of 20,611 in 3,799 HH. Both data
is way below the projected population of 20,657 for 2000 and 22,409 for 2004.
1
Poblacion –Anini-y’s urban center is the smallest in Antique by population and land area. Its retrogressing tempo of urbanization is due to the
establishment of bigger stores and the emergence of potential urban areas beyond its boundaries. Among the 23 Anini-y barangays, it ranks 13th
only in terms of HH population accounting only less than 4% of total population in 1995. It is least dense with 74 persons/ha. of built-up lands but its
average HH size is bigger than that at rural barangays with 5.64 compared to 5.54 HH members.
Anini-y is the third most densely populated municipality in Antique with 331 persons/ sq km in 1995 (Antique’s and national average population
density were 170 and 223 persons/sq km, respectively). Majority of its residents live in the eastern barangays where the big 3 (Magdalena-
Mabuyong-Casay) are located. About 14% lives in the 6 upland barangays. Magdalena continues to having the biggest population and Tagaytay
maintaining the smallest (2,387 and 233 residents, respectively in 2004) but Iba is most dense. Sagua and Poblacion’s gross urban density of 1,154
and 914 persons/sq. km highly qualify them for consideration as municipal urban areas.
An over-whelming majority of residents are Kinaray-a speaking. A considerable number, 3.05% is Cebuano and 1.66% is Ilonggo. More than four-
fifths of its HH population is Roman Catholic while the Aglipayans comprise a very small minority.
Literacy Rate of Anini-y is 92.70% as of 1990 and is increasing. For HH population 10 years old and over more females at 5,831 are literate than
5,702 males. Comparatively, the people living at the Poblacion are more literate at 95.05% than those residing at the rural areas at 92.59%. In 5
years time, the rate of population with no grade completed is drastically reduced by 38.16%. Pre-school pupils have almost doubled. Secondary
education is more accessible and affordable, more and more students are shifting to vocational courses, especially for the population 20 years plus
and there is also an increasing tendency to complete a college degree course.
Blindness is the most prevalent disability, especially among the senior citizens from 60 years old and over followed by orthopedic handicap usually
found among the very active groups of persons from 20 to 64 years of age.
2
The population is young with more than 50% are 24 years old and below thus, Total Dependency Ratio is high at 72.23% although there are more
members of the working population (58.06%) than the dependent population (41.94%). Almost 2/3 of the population 15 years old and above is in the
labor force. Unemployment becomes a concern for Anini-y residents at age 40 who tend to start to regress being economically active as soon as they
reached the age of 44 years. Unemployment rate is 26.75%. Data further showed every 3 income-earners have on the average 7 dependents.
More than 1/5 of the population derived incomes from farming as their main source of income. Next major sources are: various type of labor; fishing,
government employment; and, overseas employment.
Poblacion is first in commercial employment with Casay, Talisayan, and Nato on triple tie at second. Emerging areas are Butuan, Sagua and
Magdalena. Nasuli C prides itself of having the most number deriving income from industrial crafts, followed by San Francisco and Igpalge.
Mabuyong, Casay and Magdalena, are on service employment. Igtumarom leads in domestic employment, Sagua in overseas employment and
Casay, Poblacion, and Magdalena as commercial and activity centers lead in other self-employment.
Anini-y has 8,266 workers (56.13% male; 43.87% female). More than 1/3 of these workers consider themselves as self-employed, 1/4 worked in
private businesses and another group a little less than 1/4 owns their respective businesses and works without pay. Seventy-seven persons consider
themselves employer. The next numerous group of industry workers (27.34%) are the service providers (private business; domestic helpers; and,
government), more than half of which are females. The third most dominant industry group belongs to the 973 fisherfolks, 22.20% of which are
women. The other groups of industry workers are the traders (3.71%), the manufacturers (2.86%), the construction workers (1.89%), 16 electricians
and gas/water peddlers and 1 quarryman prevalently, as private businessman or as self-employed person.
3
In the 2000 NSO record, Anini-y figured the worst municipality in all the 6 employment categories.
Anini-y has 550 overseas workers (73.64% male, 26.36 females) in 1995. Most of them be it male or female are 25-39 years old. What is gratifying to
note is that a sizable number of individuals (25.27%) beyond 40 years of age still work on very demanding overseas duties.
➢ EDUCATION
Learning institutions in Anini-y (12 elementary, 6 primary, and 4 secondary) offers only elementary and secondary education. To get vocational/
technical education, manpower training and college education residents have to seek it outside the municipality.
In 2000, the district schools enrollment participation rate, EPR for primary pupils is 95.12%; intermediate -115%; and secondary 95.18%. Some did
not just quit. Due to poverty, they took domestic employment and transfer to other schools near their new residence. Freshmen girls and Junior boys
suffered most number of dropouts. Present enrollment is 2,889 broken down into 1,968 primary and 921 elementary grades pupils. For secondary,
total enrollment is 1,582 high school students. Enrollment has decreased.
The existing student-classroom ratio is 32:1 in elementary and 46:1 in secondary. Current classroom requirement is 50 pupils/ classroom. Anini-y has
extra rooms but almost 3/4 of the existing units demands immediate demolition or major repairs. Current classroom design can comfortably
accommodate 40 pupils in a room. For a 10-year period the district school needs at least 50 new or reconditioned units. The current teacher-student
ratio is 28:1 in elementary and secondary. By teacher requirements, Anini-y needs 2 new teachers every year in ten years. Schools are widely
dispersed that to lump pupils into the standard 50-pupil class is not practical.
Majority of the schools, both elementary and secondary have space problems and the school board should seriously consider possible options.
Establishment of new schools is not practical. Some existing structures may be unduly rendered vacant.
4
➢ HOUSING
Most settlements are not properly laid-out and many HH in the uplands are scattered that power and water amenities entail a huge sum to bring into
each home. The whole municipality is now energized with 2 upland barangays using alternative and renewable power sources. A blocking plan
should be prepared as soon as possible for the upland areas.
Due to lack of available home lots, many housing units encroached on the coasts of Talisayan, Butuan, San Roque and Iba and are exposed to risk
of tidal surges. Congestion has set in these areas and disaster personnel will have a hard time to implement rescue operations. Re-blocking as a
solution has to overcome major problems. Setting future settlement site is the better option.
The 1997 Social Reform Agenda (SRA) survey reported 722 families having problems on their very temporary shelters that are unacceptable to
standards of a decent home. These families must be identified and responded to before they become homeless. Housing projects for the poor must
not be government dole-outs. Its degree of success may be ensured by having the private sector run the program and not by politicians. Whenever
the LGU so decide to go into a housing program, the terms and conditions on any affordable loan package and the implementation scheme should be
thoroughly discussed and clarified with the beneficiaries in order not to repeat problems encountered under the core shelter project in Lisub B.
Garbage disposal is still manageable but is a potential problem. The 168 HH reportedly indiscriminate in their waste disposal habit must be identified
and sanctioned. LGU-run markets and resort facilities should set example in proper solid waste management. Nogas Island fiesta and its aftermath of
waste literally scattered in the island is a good battleground for environment enthusiasts. The situation in excreta disposal has improved. Households
with water-sealed toilets constitute more than 80% of the households. Others have unacceptable toilets and almost 13% still have no disposal facility.
5
➢ HEALTH
People getting sick are increasing per general medical consultation rate of 293 to ___/1000 population in 1999 vs. 2004 and hospitalization rate is
9.05 persons/ 1000 residents. Present realities demands the main health center facilities be upgraded and its services expanded into an emergency
clinic cum lying-in center. Technology and personnel are available and Anini-y is better serve now than before. Aside from the regular health stations,
San Ramon, Nato and San Francisco have each a midwife for their health needs. Private secondary schools have no medical service staff and no
government personnel are assigned to provide for this service delivery gap.
The municipal crude birth rate of 21 livebirths/1000 population is exceeded in 12 barangays but fertility (91 live births/1000 females) is declining. The
infant mortality ratio is way below that of the province. Two young child deaths were due to pneumonia. Maternal death is zero or under control.
Anini-y has high incidence of communicable diseases like Pneumonia, PTB, Parasitism and Diarrhea. Prevailing non-communicable diseases are
Heart Diseases, Hypertension and various forms of Cancer. Acute Respiratory Infection, ARI is the leading cause of illnesses in Anini-y since the last
decade followed by Pneumonia. Influenza has overtaken Skin Problems from the third spot. Injuries is fifth up to now. Musculo-Skeletal Disorder has
increased and is now sixth from ninth in the 90’s followed by Gastrointestinal Disorder, Bronchitis, Alveolar Abscesses, and at tenth by Hypertension.
Anemia, dog bites, allergy, diarrhea, and bronchial asthma are emerging illnesses. Anti-stray dogs and dog immunization programs should tie up.
Historically, 6 death-causing illnesses have figured since 1995 up to the first 3 years of the present decade. Pneumonia has always been the no. 1
killer disease followed by Hypertension, Cancer (all forms), Heart Disease and Pulmonary Tuberculosis and Accidents (all forms) at 6th place. These
are followed by Degenerative Osteoarthritis, Bronchial Asthma, Diabetes Mellitus and Wound. Liver Cirrhosis, Peptic Ulcer Disease, Malnutrition and
Acute Hemorrhagic Pancreatitis are upcoming death-causing diseases. Dengue epidemic awareness is up and people are more prepared for it.
6
Malnutrition is on the upswing. Almost 1 in every 3 pre-schoolers and almost 1 for every 2 school children weighed is malnourished. Barangay-level
nutrition data for children should guide LGU responses on this regard. Either manpower or funds are short to respond to this silent killer thus, a
community feeding program with substantial LGU financial support is necessary.
Households are more into curative than preventive medicine. More stress on community-level health education and preventive approach is needed.
There is a need for the introduction of a community socialization activity that is relaxing, invigorating and productive. Poverty situation (inadequate
food intake due to inadequate food supply, no CR and inadequate water supply, delayed consultation, adverse terrain and access to transportation)
aggravates immediate response for medical assistance.
➢ PROTECTIVE SERVICES
Anini-y is insurgent-free and the present force has control over the peace and order situation thus, Mabuyong police outpost is no longer maintained
as municipal crime rate is relatively low. The local PNP office is standard, their firearms are standard police issue and their service vehicle is relatively
new. However, police patrols are not equipped with handheld radios. Some have personal cellular phone, though. The 136-man barangay tanod
brigades assist local police authorities and the barangay officials in maintenance of peace and order. Each tanod from Magdalena, Casay and
Talisayan services at least 180, 137 and 130 persons, respectively. Police-Population standard requires at least 20 policemen in the year 2000.
There is no fire protection and control agency in Anini-y. A fire team lead by a police officer with fire-fighting training and experience, and selected
tanods and auxiliary volunteers with minimum standard fire fighting equipment and training could at least provide the services as housing structures
are beginning to get constructed close to each other due to limited space.
The Philippine Coast Guard maintains a clearing post in Anini-y and a lighthouse keeper is assigned at Nogas Island for its solar-powered lighthouse.
An earthquake monitoring station is likewise operated by the Department of Science and Technology at Sira-an.

➢ SOCIAL WELFARE SERVICES
It is observed that social welfare organizations last while free supplies last and that their activities are reactionary in character. Primarily, this is
because the beneficiaries are at the survival level. Secondly, field workers are in voluntary basis. Finally, the local government social welfare fund
allocation is limited as the paramount focus at every decision level is the installation of infrastructures.
If the actual needs of the indigents are considered and responded adequately, the whole municipal budget for the year will not suffice, all the other
sector’s development needs will be pending and the whole municipal employees will not receive any remuneration for the year.
In 1997 SRA-Minimum Basic Needs (MBN) survey, 1970 families have income below poverty threshold level, 722 cases of homelessness,
abandonment/separation in 87 families, violence within the family in 77HH, negligence of parental responsibilities in 75 families, man-made and/or
natural disasters in 58HH +93 fire victim families, and uncontrolled child bearing in 569 families. Most residents in 15 barangays have unmet MBN.
The MSWD Office lacks manpower, facility and technology to implement a people-led LGU assisted welfare program, notwithstanding the
commitment of the local volunteers and barangay based support. These recommendations are highlighted to somehow address this awesome task:
a. Day care and supplemental feeding activities are very responsive but expensive. The LGU needs bright ideas to expand daycare activities in
all barangays. Implementers, volunteers and program participants need more appropriate technical training.
b. Fund is half the problem in putting up daycare centers the other half is political intervention in the selection of daycare workers. A selection
process that minimizes or put politics at bay and parents mobilization in organizing and building their respective centers are needed.
8
c. Dole-out funds are always the first to be exhausted. The welfare funds may form the LCE’s social fund as part of the general fund, and the
development fund treated as investment fund for people-empowered programs, or else we end up breeding mendicant citizenry in our midst.
There is a need to segregate the social funds into social welfare funds and social development funds.
d. We can solve most of our welfare problems not by creating new bureaucracies but by correcting “how we do our thing” and reinvent for
effectiveness. We need more innovative and liberating method of extending welfare and medical care assistance than what is practiced.
e. We need to review the barangay and/or beneficiary selection and awarding process for all developmental programs and projects, so that only
the deserving and the achieving is given priority.
f. We need to optimize the use of other internal community resources before looking to outside grants.
g. Answering the basic questions, ” Who are poor? Why are they poor? Where are they now?” solves one-half of our poverty alleviation thrust.
We need to inventory and map them out their locations and determine the services applicable for them for an effective response.
➢ SPORTS AND RECREATION
Anini-y is a potential sports and wholesome recreation area but, nobody is assigned to take charge of the municipal sports program. At present, the
Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) federation president does not hold daily office and everyone expects that the SK Federation runs the local sports
program. Their sports program is seasonal, and fiesta-based, basketball summer leagues and disco derby-centered. In the short term, we need a
sports office and a coherent Municipal Sports Development Program with the major participation of the civil society and the business sector. Sports
and recreational facilities development, tourism, cultural and historical spots preservation should be made complimentary and integrative.
The most prevalent sports facility –basketball courts, paved or unpaved have multiple socio-economic functions. Playground is next prevalent and is
9
usually found in school campus or public plaza. However, children playgrounds need to be established in 5 barangays without school facility.
The swimming pool at Sira-an serves as the center of family/group-organized picnic and outings. The municipal plaza and parks serves as the
staging area for almost all municipal-wide activities. Both are LGU run. The unfinished structures like the new Sira-an pool and the multi-purpose gym
should be given budget priority considerations so that capital investments of the LGU can be put to use and the benefits be reaped by the populace.
Basketball is the municipality’s most preferred sports, followed by volleyball, then by swimming. Running is also favored by most elementary school
children. However, cockfight is heavily indulged both by the haves and the have-nots. Among indoor sports, billiards is becoming popular.
Anini-y meets adequately the space requirement standards for active recreations but not field sports that require 3,856 square meters more. It is
blessed with abundant sunshine, clean air and natural physical resources: pristine beaches, balmy sulfuric waters, beautiful diving sites, very
accessible and rich sport fishing grounds, natural scenic spots, rock climbing spires, potential 5 hectare camping ground, Bantigue cove, unexplored
enchanted cave, no fuming and effluent disgorging factories, and the only forest area among the southern towns after San Jose.
➢ AGRICULTURE
The unsustainable use of our productive resources is depleting their bearing capacity resulting to decreasing yield and harvest further reducing the
farmers’ income who in turn because of high cost of production inputs make do with low value-low yielding crops, some converting forestlands for
crop production purposes to produce more. The annual municipal agro-food industrial fair should showcase our potential products and services and
instill awareness on food security issues, poverty alleviation, and quest for progress. Budget, infrastructure support facilities and initiatives for
agricultural developments are inadequate.
10
– On Crop Production:
Anini-y is a rice importer. Only 14% of Anini-y’s total land area (6617.2108Ha) is ideal for mechanized farming and about 4,860 hectares (Ha) of
these municipal lands is arable. Most of the 3,219.4549Ha agricultural lands is marginal -its production low and soil productive capacity is decreasing.
Yet, its potential may still be maximized despite the narrow flat areas of Anini-y and limited suitable land for crop production through banana and
mango production. Selected bamboo varieties for handicraft production may also be cultivated. Total cultivated area is 3,145.3523Ha and
2,871.2700Ha of these are planted to 6 major crops: 2,034.67Ha -riceland; 409.90Ha -cocoland; 350.70Ha -cornland; 33.50Ha –banana field;
20.50Ha -mango areas; and, 25.00Ha -vegetables. Rice farming has encroached into the critical watershed while coconut production has dwindled as
matured trees are felled down for construction purposes with no systematic replanting efforts. Otherwise, initiatives were individual and not extensive.
Illegal conversion of agricultural lands to residential lands is also rampant.
Average size of riceland/HH is about 0.5Ha. Only about 5% of all rice lands is irrigated and the 2 communal irrigation systems are silted. Accessibility
problem affects 903 farming HH or one-fourth of all municipal HH. Most farmers still use the traditional farm implements except in threshing where the
mechanical thresher is used. We need mechanical drier to reduce the time spent for processing palay grains to rice.
– On Livestock and Poultry Production:
Anini-y was once the region’s best cattle growing community. The municipality’s uplands that constitute 86% of our land area should be viewed not as
a negative asset but as a challenge for us to turn into a goldmine through a viable livestock industry. The livestock industry involving 1466 swine
growers and 936 cattle tenders is out-and-out a backyard undertaking. Livestock are cared for primarily for educational needs of the children in the
family. Cattle fattening has been proven time and time again as one poverty alleviation measure that work. Yet, this agricultural commodity’s
profitability plus mango, banana and fighting cocks’ are not exploited to the maximum.
11
– On Fishery and Fish Production:
Anini-y has 17 coastal communities and fishing is one of its major industries. The arable lands are limited that there is also a need to make a strategic
study of the potential of its municipal water resources. The municipality at present has no means of determining the volume of catch by species
except for bangus fry. Commercial fishers’ encroachment continues. At least, 3 Iloilo fish port-bound fish delivery trucks haul the daily catch of local
fishers supplying about 40% of the port’s daily requirements. On their return trip they load ice blocks for sale to local fishers. As long as Iloilo’s ice
block production costs is lower than ours any cold storage and fish processing facility to be established in Anini-y will not become profitable.
A 35Ha fish sanctuary in Nogas Island needs to be expanded to 240 hectares to cover all coastal barangays. Fishes caught usually by pumpboat-
riding fisherfolks are panit, bantala-an, kantorayan, bagis, subingan, mamsa, lapu-lapu, malit, bisugo, bansi, alloy, etc while commercial fishers
usually catch panit, kantorayan, alloy, galunggong, bilong-bilong, olandes, marut, seguinia and many other species.
+Anini-y has several rich fishing grounds that are just several kilometers away offshore of the mainland. This resource can become the residents’
source of income from fishery and income from sport fishing. However, seawater pollution should be abated.
– On Supply vis-à-vis Demand:
- Cereal, Cereal Products, Fish, Meat and Poultry. Present supply is very short from required. If current effort, approach and support
inadequacy persists, actual demand deficit will expand further. New hybrid, high yielding rice varieties should be availed.
- Fruits. If ‘lomboy”, jackfruit, guava, and papaya are included in the count with banana and mango, Anini-y will have future surplus if present
plans are pursued.
- Vegetables. Current supply is terribly short of current demand. Demand from vegetable growing areas outside of the municipality will
definitely increase and Anini-y must think hard and evaluate its present food security approach.
12
- Starchy Roots and Tubers, Beans, Nuts & Seeds, and Eggs. There is big discrepancy in supply and demand. The incoming and outgoing of
these products should be monitored and analyzed, as soon as possible.
- Sugars, Syrups, Milk and Milk Products. All supplies are imported by the municipality. Local milk production is zero as local culture is not
supportive of cultivating available technology and livestock for this purpose.
The Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) involves 286.8146 Ha covered under various land acquisition and distribution schemes
benefiting 131 beneficiaries. Non-land transfer/ leasehold scheme involves 252.4966Ha and 156 beneficiaries.
➢ COMMERCE
Anini-y has 4 minor commercial business districts (CBD): Iba livestock auction market; Poblacion and Casay wet and dry markets; and, Magdalena
talipapa. A commercial strip is developing in priv ate lots along side the national road where the Poblacion public market is as market extension.
In 1999, Anini-y has 186 convenience outlets: 169 sari-sari stores and, 17 general merchandizing/groceries/dry goods stores 9 of which are more
affluent and from which most goods are available. Almost all sari-sari stores sell assorted very common medicine, sell soft drinks and liquors. In terms
of aggregate area and most variety of goods and services 5 areas figured: Poblacion; Iba; Casay Viejo; Magdalena; and Talisayan.
The presence of 7 welding/repair shops, gasoline station, pharmacy and a plastic wares outlet are welcome developments. Now, meat and pork are
more readily available. Employees, transacting publics, group learning and training activities, and budget-conscious customers have several eateries
to select from. Other professional services however, are limited to tailoring, beauty care, repair for electronics/air gun, funeral parlors and, small-time
contracting. Needs for modern farming machinery, construction equipments, sawmill, transportation and communication, and lights and sound
services are now available for rental or other special arrangements.
13
Anini-y is “exporter” of empty bottles. Trading activity is almost the same as 10 years ago except in liquor and soft drinks where selling is done
either on consignment or commission basis. Retailing involves sale or rental of displayed merchandise products that may not be for personal or
household consumption or use. Agents of companies from Iloilo or San Jose sell real estate in other municipalities, insurance services and
educational plans to their relatives or friends in Anini-y, especially families of seamen and oversea contract workers. Banking is done more in San
Jose than Iloilo and Anini-y residents are considered the biggest depositors, municipal-wise and aggregate-wise.
Factors that contributed to the growth of commercial activities in the municipality are: presence of infrastructure support facilities and services, such
as road concreting; private sector investments; increasing trend of consumable consumptions in the area; and employment of persons 15 years old
and over. Business continued operations depend on the management’s promotional skills, convergence of trading activities, enthusiasm of the
players, knowledge of equipment maintenance, return on investment, trained second-liners, and personal relationship of the proprietor. Business also
continues when IOUs, capital or personal diversions are minimal or controlled and proper bookkeeping and accounting is maintained.
Basic services became accessible as private sector investments in transportation and allied services have become profitable. Commercial activities
more than doubled near the terminal points. Coupled by local government investments on physical infrastructures, public markets have become
Iivelier as more residents are now doing their marketing within the municipality. More ambulant type of services sprouted thus, more money has
circulated making the underground economy alive. More 15 years old and over have available jobs. Those with some capital became self-employed.
Its commercial service centers are strategically located –Poblacion in the west and Iba in the east also covering 4 barangays of T. Fornier. Iba needs
a one stop shop for ease in power and water supply provision. Business can be more manageable, laws and ordinances more enforceable, and
garbage collection, solid waste management and traffic can be efficiently run. Iba needs flood prevention funds.
14
Geographically, the town is at great disadvantage vs. other Antique and Iloilo municipalities. Anini-y’s resources are its undeveloped uplands and its
marine waters, the skills of its residents and savings in banks. Commercial activities should focus on inter-barangay trading. Thus, future needs shall
be more on transport and communication services and support for exporting its excess fishes and meat, and infrastructure needs that will enhance its
strategic recreational advantage. When provided, only then those support services on enhancing small and medium scale industries shall be felt.
Many residents love to live a good life. Many have lived in Metro-Manila and other prime cities. A shopping center or a decent supermarket that
houses in one roof various commercial trading a nd service establishments and a rural bank will reduce their going to Iloilo City or San Jose for their
business chores. A rural bank is a felt need to serve the banking needs of the Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) and the businessmen.
a. On Source of Capital and Investments. All land-based and seafaring Anini-y OFWs, local and foreign pensioners coming home for good and the
proprietors of existing establishment needs to be encouraged to invest more. Several investment groups visited Anini-y with unknown results.
Knowledge on their demands, their chosen field of investments, and their infrastructure requirements should be taken up with the local trade and
investment board and to pursue their investment plan a team should be available to make them feel assured that we are interested.
b. Manpower. Many trips have been aborted due to engine troubles. Operators of land-based transports and pump boats need training on motor
engine preventive maintenance and trouble-shooting. Their women family members need training on fish and food processing technology, and
simplified bookkeeping and accounting. The construction sector workers need some orientations on basic construction techniques, carpentry and
measurements. Most peasants work in construction by experience and require only sheer muscle power from them. There is a need to improve
the quality, economy and efficiency of their works to enable them to branch out into woodcrafts and handicrafts.
15
c. Support Facilities and Incentives. Existing establishments are not power and water consumptives. Thus, economic development in the
commerce sector is not constrained by high cost of electricity or by availability of water. To enhance further commercial development, there is a
need to provide incentives to environment-friendly investments in the form of special tax offer, block the entry of pollution-enhancing businesses,
a clearer investment policy, a stable peace and order condition, and in most cases, subsidies for pioneering industries.
Commercial development is the way to the future. Comprehensive plans need to be finalized and integrated, and municipal thrusts re-oriented. The
present and future land requirements need to be calculated and corresponding lots earmarked for the commercial activity expansion.
➢ TOURISM
The “ANINI-Y TOURISM POLYGON” taken as a whole could become a fantastic Triathlon Gaming area. It possesses 8 of the 9 requirements to be
qualified as national eco-tourism destination:
1. Cresta del Gallo is a 21-hectare towering, steep-sloped granite mountains with spires shaped like a rooster’s crown –a very natural attraction
very tempting for adventure and ideal for camping, rock climbing, hiking, trekking, horseback riding, and game fishing. Its “unexplored” cave
has an aura of enchantment and good for spelunking. The “more scenic than the French Reviera” road and a “bridge spanning a fresh water
spring under the sea water” leading to it from Iloilo is a bonus panorama including the fantastic vista atop the mountain spires. Barely 30m
towards the sea is an 80m plunge –a challenge to deep-sea divers. Not far off the base of cresta is a spot that could serve well as the
administration center, with its own fresh water spring and natural cove for very private swim and spear fishing. It is very close to a historical
landmark, the Ten Datus from Borneo landing site. The waters between Nogas and Siraan is good for water sports and skiing and between
Nato and San Ramon is a mountain spring for fresh water swim –another stop over point during mountain trekking and horseback riding. Mt.
Aliwliw could be another stopover of cross country biking.

16
2. Sira-an Hot Spring has unique features that may be very interesting and educational for the visitors. It has a growing protrusion believed by
many as a baby volcano. To discover how and why it is growing is a scientific interest to student’s natural science class, care off on-site
3. PhilVolcs monitoring station. It is believed to date back Pre-Spanish time as the legend goes. Generations bathe themselves at its tubs to be
refreshed by the warm spring water said to contain curative elements to skin diseases.
The Century Old Baroque Simbahan ng Anini-y is conducive to educational and cultural experience for the tourists and travelers. Moreover,
Nogas Island has enough potential for marine biology and Coastal Resource Management (CRM) education and research.
4. Nogas Island is environmentally rich in terms of number of flora and fauna that includes 6 families of mangrove and 32 bird species and,
some endemic species and endangered wildlife.
5. The Underwater Garden treasures at Punta Bontog and the reef surrounding Nogas Island is threatened and may be destroyed by the
intrusion of commercial fishing vessels, their dragnets and their trawls and the grounding of passenger ships. The prevailing status of the
reefs surrounding the proposed sanctuary is “very good” with total live coral cover of 73.64% including soft corals. There is an excellent live
coral cover (79.40%) on the northern tip of the island and is an ideal divers’ haven, much better than Boracay’s diving venues. The Divers
Association of the Philippines has marked the area in their map.
6. Nogas Island, Gurong-gurong Creek, Lubay-lubay Creek, Puti Falls and Cresta del Gallo are part of the local legend on the Barter of Panay.
Hurao-hurao Island is part of the Humadapnun Epic. These are cultural attractions embodied in the provincial Binirayan Festival. Anini-y
Catholic Church is still the only church of Spanish vintage that remains standing and is the Antique’s oldest at more than a century old. The
17
municipality has 3 endemic dances that needs the assistance to be revived being part of the familial rituals and traditions. Pasungay and
Parumba-baroto are observed from time to time during barangay fiestas. Tourism could well enhance these native past times.
7. Anini-y is “off the beaten track.” Commercial tourists do not frequent the area and tourism business is LGU-operated. It could easily become a
community-operated venture.
8. Tourism could very well help in the preservation of the biodiversity or environment of Nogas Island considered by various Iloilo schools’
biology classes to have more diverse marine life than UP Visayas-run marine sanctuary and laboratory at Taclung Island in Guimaras.
9. For marine environment, the whole polygon is diverse in marine life. The Anini-y Underwater Gardens’ benthic life forms is “very good” with 4
species of sea grasses out of the 17 known species in the world; 21 species of seaweeds from 3 known phyla; and, 118 reef fishes belonging
to 27 families and a high fish biomass of 246.54 grams/square meter.
On funding. The LGU to get government funding support undergo the required processes in the development of its tourism destinations –conduct
an audit of the features peculiar to the area that may make this destination attractive and conduct Environmental Impact Assessment, EIA to identify
the positive and negative factors of development and propose measures that would reduce the negative impacts.
On plan implementation. Any major revisions to the master plan should be compatible to eco-tourism principles –observe the minimum impact
requirement, blending of structures with the environment, blending of facilities with native culture, and carrying capacity.
On adequacy of existing personnel. A professional tourism office with properly trained and motivated staff is a need that can provide the “ IT “ in
overall operation: tourism promotion, coordination and management, including monitoring of volume of visitors. Tourism as business venture needs
18
to be run as a business. By the size of its operation, Siraan is over manned but under serviced. A story telling session could enhance its magic and
enchantment. The Underwater Gardens are frequented by divers without proper coordination with the local authorities.
On sustainable development. A regular environment audit of the destination as to water quality, aesthetics, sewage, etc. must be observed.
On travel and tour guides. The LGU should make concerted promotion of these potential income generators. Many times when visitors are around
no volunteer has a specific task to accompany them around. Much more, no one is available who could act both as resource person and tourist guide.
Anini-y is richly endowed with natural attractions and has bright future in tourism. However, only when this dusty road section from part of Iloilo to this
site is paved with concrete will tourists from other province visit this natural wonder and, something has to be down for its tourism resources:
1. Cresta del Gallo should be maintained as it is –untouched. The management must have licensed mountain climbing experts, facilities and
equipment for this activity. As soon as possible, the LGU needs to make its best effort to follow through its official transfer from the
Department of Agrarian Reform including the 5-hectare rolling and undulating public land very ideal for hosting even regional scout camping.
2. Siraan Hot Spring facilities need more improvements, and its structures’ design should be thematic. The resort’s 6,012 square meters area
limits its vast potential as the local tourism hub and lot adjacent to it must be acquired.
3. The Simbahan ng Anini-y building is an enduring legacy of the historic past and the structure itself is the attraction. The local church officials
do not charge anything for these visits, but the visitors must make arrangement with the priest and donate for its maintenance for the privilege
of an ocular walk inside of the church. As a declared national heritage its maintenance may now be accessed from the national government.
19
4. Any structure allowed to be constructed in Nogas Island should not compromise its pristine state.
It also has activities and facilities that can draw, entertain and accommodate the tourists and travelers to the area:
▪ Siraan Hot Spring resort for picnic, educational and training activities;
▪ Periodic regional open sport fishing tourneys;
▪ Abandoned Mt. Aliwliw Communication Base as summer and spiritual retreat haven;
▪ Unique cultural practice indigenous to the area: Pasungay; Pista sa Nogas; Parumba-baroto; and, Urukay Festival.
▪ Potential come-ons are adventure sports, water sports, hiking, cross-country biking, horseback riding, fresh water swimming, and summer
spiritual retreat.
➢ INDUSTRY
The various family-owned industries in Anini-y are backyard in scope or micro industries according to capitalization. In 2000, the 8 mobile and 10
stationary rice mills constitute the most prevalent manufacturing establishment in Anini-y. Most are based in upland barangays. Food preparation and
processing is next prevalent with 11 cooked food manufacturer, 4 packed foods family ventures and 2 native food processors. There were 7 concrete
hollow block-pre-cast producers, 4 iron-grill manufacturers, and unspecified number of chain saw operators. The metal craft industry has 9
establishments into various types of metal products. Other craft establishments are 2 rubber flower makers,3 wood furniture makers and 2 bamboo
craft producers. There is no available data on production volume and value in all aforesaid industries. Based on number of employees, these
industries were micro-enterprises or cottage industries having no definite number of employees or less than 10 employees. These industries were
light industries having no pollutive/ non-hazardous effect to the environment.

Other on and off micro-enterprises are: Butuan pottery-making; Igtumarom and Talisayan smithery; Magdalena, Nasuli C and San Francisco
buricraft; Sagua RTWs; Mabuyong stuffed toys, upland’s bamboo fish traps, and the coastal barangays’ boat making. Bakery is an emerging industry.
Its present production capacity is far below the demand and the balance is supplied by delivery cars/ jeeps from other municipalities.
Past business failures were primarily due to mismanagement, minimal profit, lack of knowledge on preventive machine maintenance, no second-liner,
or limited capitalization. Other reasons are, proprietor’s PR and state of health, or not able to cope with latest craze or better models. The public has
become more discriminating.
The municipality has no metallic and non-metallic reserves of known commercial quantities. It is left with its natural beauties and products from its
uplands and marine waters. Analyzing their potential for manufacturing industry, ancillary activities like cooked food and native delicacies production
and handicrafts from bamboos and parts of coconut trees could revolve around community-based tourism.
Industry growth most likely will be severely hampered by the availability of raw materials, lack of training on product design and no linkage with other
industry players. All of them need entrepreneurial trainings on product labeling and costing, basic bookkeeping and accounting, and assistance on
market linkage. The economic conditions of the country will most likely dictate their existence.
➢ FORESTRY
Anini-y is more or less 87% uplands. Its total alienable and disposable (A&D) lands are 6,182.9021Ha (including 1,660.8643Ha of open brush lands
scattered all over the municipality). The rest of the municipal lands are 434.3087Ha forest lands broken down into: 309.5900 hectares of production
forests and 124.7187Ha of protection forest. It is estimated that about 400Ha of uplands within the watershed areas are tilled for agricultural uses.
There is a need for a municipal-wide energized reforestation, and protection program to address the water shortage problem during summer.
There is no Ancestral Domain Claim Areas in Anini-y. The 1996 DENR study found there are several endangered animals in Nogas Island.
21
➢ POWER SUPPLY
The Antique Electric Cooperative (ANTECO) is the main source of electric power in Anini-y. As a distribution center, it buys power from the National
Power Corporation, NAPOCOR and supplies Anini-y through its Hamtic sub-station. It services the 17 coastal barangays from Bayo Grande to San
Francisco. The Milagrosa and Igpalge uplands are connected from Mabuyong, and Nasuli C is connected from Iba. Electricity has reached all the
barangays –22 ANTECO-energized barangays and 2 barangays with power generated by solar cells. Only 52% of the household in year 2000 were
wired although 64% had applied. The 213HH wanting to be connected to the system cannot afford to buy the power meter.
Average annual consumption of residential users was around 71,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) for a total domestic consumption of 851,847kWh. Total
municipal consumptions were almost 1M kWh and the combined industrial users and public utility buildings grossed only 7.10% of it while the 23
commercial connections averaged only 105.29 kWh.
Anini-y is at the end of the distribution line and is the first to be cut off from system when overloading or power shedding occur. Power supply is not
very reliable during weekends and fiestas. Fluctuations and power shedding destroys household appliances. Facilities to inform the public of
impending/ brownout schedule is lacking or not working.
The trend in the use of electricity as lighting fuel is increasing although kerosene still ranks highest being used in almost 56% of all households, in
1999. Households may have electricity but they still use kerosene lamps after electric lights are put off during the night. Use of kerosene is prevalent
in the 3 upland barangays.
Wood/bamboo is most common fuel used for cooking. These still abounds in Anini-y and are being acquired by 73% of the households often at no
cost. It is more economical, convenient to use and more readily available. Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) is used though for emergency cooking. On
the other hand, the LPG-using households try to save cost too, by substituting it with wood and bamboo once in a while.
22
Barangay LGUs are seen as providers for maintaining streetlights out of its own funds and not as additional burden to individual households.
A lower electricity rate is a potent motivation for additional household consumers, as well as the growth of commerce and industry. The globalization
trend, E-Commerce and E-Governance push all LGUs to the communication mainstream. Such demand will be limited only by the availability of
stable and sufficient power supply, as all electronic communications gobbles up a lot of kilowatts of power. Anini-y being at the end of the power
transmission lines will be severely affected.
➢ WATER SUPPLY
Water supply from various sources in Anini-y is presently adequate for domestic use of its residents, although more densely populated and fast
growing areas have indications of experiencing supply insufficiency at certain period of the year. Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeño, Igpalge, Igtumarom,
Milagrosa, Salvacion and Tagaytay have enough water unlike Mabuyong, Magdalena, Lisub B, San Ramon and San Roque that need a lot of money
to rehabilitate their mismanaged waterworks and augment them with nearby water sources.
A blueprint is needed for the eventual establishment of a San Roque-Iba waterworks cooperative with waters tapped from Igtiring springs and the
adjacent Milagrosa springs. Nasuli C and San Francisco may need a joint water project with the local government of Nasuli A to tap the waters from
its Gigi Springs. If it is not possible, there is a need for the immediate delineation and rehabilitation of the watershed areas within these barangays to
induce more water flow from springs found in the area. Meantime, San Roque may be served by an extension from the Salvacion waterworks.
The emerging Butuan-Poblacion-Sagua-Talisayan-Lisub A urban cluster will have future water supply problem unless the Timbobog motorized-pump
well or the 45 cm San Ramon Spring with a capacity enough for about 6 barangays is tapped. This spring can be augmented with the Iyaga and
Sambuaya Springs yielding 5 inches of water even during summer season. Moreover, Poblacion can tap the waters of Tuno Spring of San Ramon.
23
The existing gravity-type waterworks systems service areas are limited by its present supply capacity, management viability, beneficiary households’
degree of clustering, distance from the existing pipelines, capacity and willingness of the beneficiaries to pay, and funds to buy the plumbing materials
and finance the systems’ maintenance. There is a need for an enhanced beneficiary involvement and the establishment of a municipal-level
partnership to improve and maintain and possibly integrate the systems.
On groundwater sources and pollution. Magdalena, Mabuyong, and Casay have very deep-lying aquifers. All the rest have shallow aquifers except
those of Bayo Grande and Pequeño, and Casay Viejo that is a little bit deeper, at 30-35 feet.
Butuan, Nato, Sagua, portions of Casay, Salvacion, and San Francisco, San Ramon, Tagaytay, and Talisayan have soil saturation level varying from
2 to 10 feet. Lisub A, Talisayan, and portion of Poblacion have about 12 feet saturation level. Over population pressure is bound to cause
groundwater pollution. The rest of the barangays have more than 15 feet except Mabuyong with 35-40 feet.
On surface water and its human use. Iboc, Nato, Nasuli, and Talisayan Rivers with 7, 6, 8, and 12 tributaries, respectively are the four major river
systems of Anini-y. Their tributaries of creeks, brooks and some surface waters could become an excellent source of irrigation water when properly
impounded. Waters in the upstream of all its surface water bodies are still of good quality. Another 17 creeks and brooks directly empty into the sea.
Surface waters quality deteriorates near the residential areas and rendered unfit for human use, except irrigation and watering purposes. Pesticides
and suspended solids from domestic garbage thrown into and, weak water flow, sand bar, and soil erosion have contributed immensely in its
deterioration. Anini-y’s rugged geography is its redeeming grace that periodically works for its advantage. When enough rain pours, these waterways
are immediately flooded and drains at no time all pollution into the bosom of the sea. A vigorous waste management program is urgently needed to
rehabilitate the most deteriorated Poblacion, Sagua, and Butuan creeks.
24
On water supply testing and quality. Sira-an Hot Spring used for bathing and swimming is classified as Class B or Recreational Water Class. All
foreshore areas in the municipality can qualify under Class B and C or good recreational areas for bathing, swimming and skin diving purposes.
However, Talisayan and similar fishing villages’ marine waters should have programs on control of spilling oil into their beaches started now. Class D
is used for agriculture, irrigation, livestock, watering, etc.
Significant units of shallow wells will continue to supply over 50% of the residents. Other shallow wells, especially in Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeño,
Casay, Casay Viejo, Igpalge, and San Roque have water tables beyond the 25 feet design depth of jetmatic pumps promoting the invasion and the
absorption of surface water other than those contained in the aquifer. Mabuyong suffers most having to dig 40-60 feet before water flow stabilize.
Water appeared reddish in some wells in 15 puroks while water tastes somewhat tart in some wells in another set of 15 puroks, but no incidence of
chemical poisoning. These wells may contain deleterious elements. All wells located in areas of low soil saturation level, when a unit is used by more
than 40 persons, when its water appear reddish or taste tart, or when located near the seashore or the farms must be periodically examined not just
for pathological organisms but also for mineral and economic values.
On improvement of existing unsafe water supply sources. Most of the 37 undeveloped springs serving a little less than 20% of the municipality’s
total households must be into improved springs or Level II facilities. Most of the 103 open dug wells are used by 1,336 poor residents. There is a
need to support them with concrete and plumbing materials to alleviate their needs for access to potable waters and prevent them from becoming
epidemic victims.
25
On denudation that affects water supply. Watershed areas of 14 barangays are considered critical for the municipality’s sustainable water supply
generation. The 12.25Ha watersheds at Casay, Iba, Igtumarom, San Francisco, and San Ramon are mostly denuded and in need of immediate
reforestation. Other watershed in Bayo Grande, Magdalena, Milagrosa, Lisub B, Nato, Salvacion and Mount Pogpog cover a sizeable area and also
need to be surveyed and delineated first before any reforestation activity is started. Existing watershed areas are the 2Ha Igdulit watershed of
Mabuyong, 2Ha Nasuli C watershed; 7-10Ha Mt. Banderahan watershed and 3Ha Talangban watershed at Tagaytay. Mount Pogpog also in
Tagaytay is bigger than the two sites.
There is a need for a more vigorous implementation of ordinances that prohibits stray animals, especially in watershed areas.. The 3 major rivers of
Anini-y have their headwaters in the San Ramon-Tagaytay-Igtumarom uplands and efforts must be exerted for this vast watershed area to be
reforested and prevent the resettlement of areas within critical distance from these sources.
➢ TRANSPORTATION
The 19.6034km long national road that connects Anini-y to T. Fornier and San Joaquin is only 25.6435% paved with concrete or asphalt at selected
populous section. The urban center, Poblacion has 1.3150km concrete roads and all barangay roads have a combined length of 39.4058km. By
standard, Poblacion roads are short by 0.5186km while barangay roads are below the required length of 74.0034 km. Based on the ideal rural road
requirement of 1.5 km/100 hectares Anini-y’s road inadequacy is equivalent to 34.5976 km.
Barangay roads inter-connections made the uplands more accessible. Only 3.4239 km of these is paved with concrete and needs re-grading to
reduce assent slope. Access roads connecting the uplands to the lowlands are prone to erosion, particularly, during the rainy season. The winding
Iba-San Francisco national road deserves immediate widening. The San Francisco-Samalague provincial road is left abandoned and impassable. By
type of administration, Anini-y has 3 concrete and 15 bailey bridges with a total length of 350.59 lineal meters and varying width of 3.94 to 7.00m
26
being maintained by Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH). It also has 2 concrete spillway bridges of undetermined length. The
provincial government has abandoned a 12.20 lineal meter timber trestle bridge at Bantigue but has constructed the 24.29 lineal meters Nasuli -C
Bridge. The 16 bridges identified need to be concretized and improved particularly, the approaches on both ends to avoid perennial erosion.
Sitio Minoro Ingga needs a bridge across Nasuli River to Nasuli C proper and its primary school while Milagrosa is separated by Iboc River from
Igplage elementary and secondary schools. Another bridge is needed to connect Magdalena to its upland sitios of Paet, Igcanipa and Cababaan
while a “foot bridge” is presently servicing the transport needs of its Sitio Panabigan residents.
The expansion of the urban area to cover possibly Butuan, Poblacion, Sagua, and Talisayan demands an urban road network of 10 .308km
(compared to existing road network of 7.285km) to 12.8952km in 2010 over a 10 year period. The drainage and sewerage system in the urban area
must be improved and installation of sewerage system may be considered.
There are 269 motorized land transport vehicles in Anini-y, in 1999. Bus and jeepney terminals are located at Iba and Casay Viejo. At the Poblacion,
tricycles use the road by the public market as waiting station. Other established waiting/embarkation points are Mabuyong-Milagrosa-national road
junction; Casay Viejo-Igpalge-national road junction; and, Iba-Nasuli C-national road junction.
Generally, traffic, traffic-related accident and flooding are not a problem at present, but as the urban areas expand could be a potential concern.
Access of the domestic tourists and regional traders to the municipality needs improvement, as this will boost tourism, commercial and industrial
activities in the municipality. Paving with concrete the entire Guisang-an-Tiolas section of the national road will bring Anini-y closer to bigger
population centers. It will skyrocket the development of the area as the regional tourism and livestock center. On the other hand, the repair,
maintenance and improvement of arterial roads connecting all the barangays, both coastal and uplands of Anini-y are the LGUs’ major responsibility.
This road factor will have enormous contribution to all barangays’ unimpeded march to progress.
27
➢ COMMUNICATION
The Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT), Philippine Telephone and Telecommunications, (PT&T) and Radio Marine used to offer
domestic and international long distance calls with Radio Marine specializing on ship-to-ship calls. These companies stopped operations by the onset
of Globe and Smart mobile phone services. Despite efforts by the LGU, data is not available if how many residents have cellular phones. When
service providers will have installed additional connect towers to cover the whole municipality the need for household level telephone system will
become obsolete. Areas beyond the present coverage of Globe and Smart have to make their respective antenna to make the connections.
The 1-man Municipal Telecommunications Office (TELOF) maintains telegraphic and pay telephone and free call services to government agencies/
entities within Antique thru Radio ICOM HF 705. The 4-man Philippine Postal Corporation (PhilPost) operates mailing and money order services
through its main post office at the municipal hall and Casay postal station. Demand for the services of both offices were increasing until the Globe and
Smart “invasion” rendered most of their services unnecessary. No one provides E-mail and Fax services.
The handset radios used by the barangays and the repeaters of municipal information office, Antique Integrated Area Development (ANIAD), and
Congressional District Office (CDO) were also rendered obsolete. Only Radio Kauswagan/ DYKA services its facility at the communication base in
Tagaytay while the local PNP still maintains its radio base. However, it is hoped that by and through a well-placed prediction by the Philvolcs’ Siraan
seismic monitoring station, the LGU can thus, readily inform the locality and react faster to emergency situations.
Entertainment and leisure has shifted from the live arena of the cockpit and the ballroom plaza but dailies and tabloids are still at bought at San Jose
or Iloilo City. Locally, a secondary school paper with limited circulation is published, at most twice a year. Most households’ transistors are glued more
to Iloilo AM/FM radio stations than the Antique stations, as only a few families with televisions subscribed to a local cable TV station. The demand for
electronic and canned entertainment shall greatly increase as soon as cable TV services become affordable and its quality improved.
28
➢ LAND USE
Anini-y is basically uplands with 86.815% of its total land area of 6617.2180Ha is above the 18% slope. Its economy is agriculture-based. Its
agricultural lands are 3,219.4549Ha while its built-up and forest areas are 73.5600Ha and 378.3087Ha, respectively. Special zones (grassland/
pasture, tourism, naval reserve, and roads and bridges) and other uses comprise a total of 3024.6085Ha and 64.1000, respectively. The existing
urban built-up area of 12.1628 hectares constitutes 15% of the Poblacion’s total land area of 87.3581 hectares. Its residential area is 6.0947Ha. The
town’s commercial area of 0.2401Ha is concentrated at the municipal public market. Its institutional area covers 3.25 hectares that includes Parks
and playground while municipal roads occupy more or less, 2.5780 hectares. Other land uses are agricultural –11.0953 Ha; naval reserve –27.2149
Ha; buffer zone/Nogas reefs/marine and easements –36.7851Ha and, wetland –0.1000 Ha. The municipality has no industrial area.
The present physical set-up of the municipality is a Linear Development type, but development trend points toward the establishment of Radial and
Circumferential System with radial and circumferential roads that connects the potential development corridors to the proposed urban center:
Poblacion and Sagua –the major growth center.
Analysis of the municipal development potentials and problems points to the establishment of the Anini-y Tourism Polygon whereby all other sectors,
especially livestock and fishery will be developed in support of local tourism development. Thus, the functional roles of the municipality of Anini-y with
regard to adjacent municipalities and other towns:
▪ main tourist destination in southern Panay;
▪ most prestigious stopover point in San Jose-Sibalom-Hamtic-TFornier-Anini-y destinations;
▪ fish exporting town of quality fishes.
▪ major fish supplier of Iloilo fish port.
29
▪ regular source of squids for adjacent towns.
▪ site for many regional sport fishing competitions,
▪ better options for divers coming from Iloilo and Boracay schools.
▪ major source of varied fishes in many city aquariums
▪ most number of seafaring men and the most deposits in San Jose banks.
The identified potential development corridors and their functional areas are:
1. The whole municipality, especially Butuan, Salvacion, Magdalena, Mabuyong, Milagrosa, Igpalge, San Ramon, Igtumarom, Tagaytay, Nasuli C,
Iba, Casay, Casay Viejo, and San Francisco as the primary livestock growing and fattening communities.
2. Nasuli C-Iba-San Francisco area as the eastern community-based tourism corridor
3. Iba is the transport terminal base.
4. Mabuyong will become the future livestock auction center.
5. Magdalena-Mabuyong boundary as new residential center
6. Casay as the growth center of the east.
7. Casay or Mabuyong periphery as the site of telecommunication’s facility expansion
8. Casay Viejo will host the memorial cum recreation parks.
9. Igtumarom-Igpalge-Milagrosa and Magdalena-Mabuyong uplands will become the high value crops-producing bread basket
10. San Roque is the bangus fry capital.
30
11. San Roque and Salvacion to constitute the east area for fish landing.
12. Magdalena will become the central food processing center for high value crops, fish and meat
13. Salvacion will host the ecology park-material recovery and ecological solid waste management facility and vegetable area
14. Nato as the tourism hub of the polygon; irrigation dam site as an alternative freshwater swimming area.
15. The trail up to San Ramon-Tagaytay radar site from Nagarip will be horseback riding, hiking or cross-country biking area.
16. Butuan-Poblacion-Sagua will be the dive launching area.
17. Poblacion is a national heritage center for “Ang Simbahan ng Anini-y”
18. Sagua-Talisayan-Lisub-Bayo area will be the home stay program hosts for sport fishing enthusiasts
19. Nato, Butuan, Sagua, Talisayan, and Lisub A&B constitute the rice granary of Anini-y.
20. Talisayan is the fish landing area in the west and seat of a cold storage facility
21. Bayo Grande and Bayo Pequeño together with Lisub B will become the coconut producing and bamboo handicraft area.
22. Poblacion and Sagua will be the municipal urban area and the major center.
The available land supply for urban expansion of 3511.7683 Hectares is enough to accommodate the planned development.
31
INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to RA 7160 of 1991, this municipality prepares its Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP) that shall be enacted through zoning ordinances that shall
be the “primary and dominant bases for the future use of its land resources.” Recent issuances/ legislations and innovative development approaches are
being incorporated to address the rational integration of different land use requirements consistent with the locality’s development needs, development
potentials and resource constraints. These are Republic Act 6657 otherwise known as the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Law of 1988; Republic Act 7279
or the Urban Development and Housing Act of 1992 (UDHA), MC 54. “Prescribing the Guidelines Governing Section 20 of RA 7160 Authorizing Cities and
Municipalities to Reclassify Agricultural Lands into Non-agricultural Uses”; and, EO 72. “Providing for the Preparation and Implementation of the
Comprehensive Land Use Plans of Local Government Units”, among other laws.
This CLUP involves municipal-wide or general land use planning that deals primarily with the non-urban large scale uses such as croplands, forests, pasture
lands, swamplands, with areas occupied by structures treated collectively as “built-up areas”; and, urban land use planning that is basically concerned with
the location, intensity and amount of land development required for the various space-using functions such as residential, commercial, industrial, institutional,
recreation and other activities found in the urban areas. The municipality’s political boundaries including the component barangays delineate the planning
area and because of the rural character and relatively slow pace of development in the municipality, a planning period of ten (10) years is being adopted.
The Office of the President in a memorandum order instructed to hasten CLUP preparation, review and approval and set December 31, 2000 as the deadline.
To speed up data gathering barangay officials and volunteers were trained and involved. The Antique Integrated Area Development (ANIAD) Foundation
Phase III Program Management Office and the PPDO helped out in training orientation of the Municipal Technical Working Group. To remedy the MTWG
members’ limitations in technical writing, volunteers from outside the municipality were sought to assist the MPDO Staff that is left with data consolidation,
32
validation, processing and evaluation and map preparation. Funds were not even enough to pay for the NGO services to prepare the maps. As soon as a
sectoral plan is completed, the concerned member of the Provincial CLUP Review Committee was requested to make an advance review and comment.
The barangay governments were apprised of the problems, issues, needs and concerns identified in the sectoral plans. As a response, barangay
governments were made to make a long list of proposed programs and projects through their Barangay Development Councils and endorsed through a
barangay resolution for MTWG’s evaluation of their consistency to municipal thrust and priorities. Furthermore, preliminary public hearings were conducted for
every barangays cluster grouped according to their functional roles vis-a-vis the municipal development strategic option. The Plan was only finalized after
series of revisions to include the result of the final public hearings conducted in all barangays, except those who found the initial cluster public hearing already
sufficed. The integration aims to harmonize development goals and objectives of all barangays in municipalities. It also identifies and reconciles
inconsistencies and incompatibilities in land use proposals among adjacent barangays.
The CLUP is being prepared for the following objectives:
a. To comply with the requirements of Article 41 of the Implementing Rules and Regulations of the Local Government Code of 1991;
b. To translate socio-economic policies into physical policies and plans;
c. To guide the orderly development of a municipality to promote health, safety, welfare and convenience of the population;
d. To promote sustainable development;
e. To preserve special natural features and environmentally critical areas and provide guidelines for the appropriate use of natural resources;
f. To allocate land for urban settlements, industries and other urban uses on land least suitable for agricultural and farming uses;
g. To serve as basis for reclassifying and converting land;
h. To reflect changes in the physical, social and economic characteristics of the community; and
i. To incorporate changes in the goals and objectives of the community.
This plan is flexible and is subject to periodic evaluation as to its status of implementation and may undergo redirection and revision according to future needs
and realities aimed to hasten the improvement of the quality of life of the residents and sustainable development of the municipality.
33
DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT
The Municipality of Anini-y is located at the lowest tip of Panay Island between 121 degrees 01’35” - 54’35” longitude and 10 degrees 24’50” - 28’38” latitude.
It has a total land area of 6,617.2108 has. The municipalities of Tobias Fornier and San Joaquin (Province of Iloilo) bound its mountainous north border
while stringed along its entire west, south and east are 17 coastal communities forming an arc against the sea waters of Panay Gulf. The rest of its 23
barangays are in the uplands. Anini-y is the place where you can find the beautiful Nogas Island. It is about 1 1/2 kilometers away from Poblacion. Going
south from the Poblacion, at about the same distance, lies the Sira-an Hot Spring. It is famous for its balmy and sulfuric waters believed to be medicinal and
have healing power. The geographic distance of the municipality from San Jose, the capital town of the province and Iloilo City is considered as a plus factor.
It has become the local tourism for visitors from municipalities of Antique up to far off municipalities of Iloilo Province for invigorating and balmy rest and
recreation.
Anini-y may be considered as having bright future for tourism development in the province, if not in the region. The municipality is endowed with tourism
resources characterized as natural attractions and a cultural practice indigenous to the area. It has started its quest for becoming the prime tourism
destination in Antique through the development of the potential tourist spot.
The Local Government Unit is now trying its hand to explore the efficacy of the principles of “Reinventing the Government” and focus its eyes on eco-tourism
as vehicle to progress. Through the year, the Municipality of Anini-y has managed to get closer to its niche in development and such development concept is
discussed and interpreted in the following scenarios with the expectation that the municipality will become a better and progressive place.
1. The agricultural area will be decreased with the expansion of the built-up and tourism areas and the recovery from tilled areas for forestry
purposes. The decrease however would not have a significant effect on agricultural production. Most of the reclassified lands have low
productivity and others are mostly planted to old coconut trees. Many conversions will come from idle and vacant lands declared as
agricultural but hardly one can see any productive plant.
34
2. Farm-to-Market roads interconnected all barangays in the upland area of the municipality for easy transport farm products to the market.
Anini-y has two (2) communal irrigation system Lisub-A, CIS and Nato-Butuan CIS. Lisub-A CIS draws its irrigation water from Talisayan
river and Lisub-A creek while Nato-Butuan CIS draws from the river of Nato The 118 beneficiary farms are those found mostly in Lisub-A.
Sources of water that springs from southern part of Barangay Tagaytay and Barangay San Ramon feeding the Talisayan and Nato rivers
are just enough for designed coverage up to second cropping. The proposed water system will be of great help to the citizens of Anini-y for
easy access to potable water. The project involves the construction of a reservoir where water will be impounded from the various water
sources. The water will be distributed thru a main pipeline where a series of artery like pipelines will be linked. The primary beneficiaries will
be the 8 coastal barangays of the municipality most especially the Barangays of Nato and San Roque which houses the Sira-an Hot Spring
and Health Resort and the proposed Hurao-Hurao Eco-Tourism Resort.
3. Swine appeared to be the favorite livestock for fattening and the most saleable commodity in the municipality. Goat is another upcoming
livestock that is profitable to care. This industry employs various arrangements between the capitalist and the farmer depending on the
relation of the parties.
In terms of income, it has been proved that income derived by a livestock farming family where the adult males care for the cattle and the
carabao while the women and children care for hogs, goats and poultry are more than enough for their daily needs.
Before, poultry raising was mainly done with native stocks. The Department of Agriculture’s Technical assistance of holding farmer’s class in
the past served as the means by which technology transfer was affected. Thus, many poultry growers now learn new techniques on poultry
raising and are growing relatively bigger-than-backyard poultry that maintains upgraded stocks as broilers or layers. This endeavor may be
upgraded into a medium scale industry to cater at least the local requirements of Anini-y in terms of eggs and white meat because as soon
these moments, the municipality is depending on imported poultry products from San Jose or Iloilo livestock farms.
35
4. Tourism industry is a means to improving the quality of life if well planned would eventually bring about increased employment opportunities,
creation of related industries as manufacturing, food processing, environment, physical infrastructure and even agricultural enhancement. It
has also impact in the natural resources of the area. It is a means to enhance the value of agriculture and forest resources and an
alternative to destructive agricultural, fishing and other resource extractive industries. It could likewise assume an integral role in
developing areas were traditional uses of land would only yield marginal produce and income. Given its natural tourism characteristic,
comparative tourism potential advantage over the rest of the municipalities of Antique and the neighboring towns of Iloilo, the Anini-y
Tourism Polygon when fully developed for purposive travel for cultural, education, historical, health, sports, adventure, ecological and
leisurely interaction will surely enhance progress in the midst of diversity. In fact, Anini-y is the strategic tourism municipality of Antique. In
the regional tourism plan, Anini-y is envisioned to serve as the southern leg of “Panay Tourism Triangle” with Boracay in the northwest and
Sicogon in the northeast corridors.
36
FUNCTIONAL ROLE OF ANINI-Y AND ITS BARANGAYS
The present physical development of the municipality is best described by a Linear Development type, owing to the geographic distribution of major
settlements. However, the development trend points toward the establishment of Radial and Circumferential System whereby the points of activities
are interconnected by radial and circumferential road systems which points are potential development corridors. Their identification as potential
development corridors and their functional areas designation are based on the following factors: the identified population needs and requirements for
various development purposes; land requirement in terms of adequacy of land for food production, settlement expansion, etc.; the location of different
land use categories; and recognized need to protect and preserve critical areas for conservation and preservation.
Anini-y as the main tourist destination in southern Panay at present will remain so as the adjacent municipalities both in Antique and Iloilo do not
have the features of Anini-y Tourism Polygon. The various travel packages in the drawing boards of the Provincial Tourism Office have made Anini-y
as its most prestigious stopover point in San Jose-Sibalom-Hamtic-TFornier-Anini-y destinations. This Polygon has the potential to satisfy
diverse tourism needs: cultural, educational, historical, health, sports, adventure, ecological, and recreational diversions.
The municipality’s strategic marine waters position vis-à-vis the teeming Tubhataha Reef and the tuna highway of Sulu Sea will always make Anini-y
as fish exporting town of quality fishes. As it had been for so many years, Anini-y will remain as the major fish supplier of Iloilo fish port. The
rich marine waters of Anini-y will still be the regular source of squids for adjacent towns as far as Patnongon. The very proximate fishing
grounds of Anini-y will be the site for many regional sport fishing competitions, and given the experience will hold national sport fishing games.
The underwater gardens among the marine areas of Anini-y will still be the better options for divers coming from Iloilo and Boracay schools.
Nogas Island in Aniniy will still be the major source of varied fishes in many city aquariums as poachers have always the means to elude the
Bantay-Dagat teams. As in the past, Anini-y will still have the most number of seafaring men among southern towns and consequently, Anini-y
having the most deposit in San Jose banks.

Consistent with the Development Option Formula of Anini-y, its 23 barangays will have vital functional roles to play, to wit:
1. The LGU has identified 547 hectares, more or less, in Butuan, Salvacion, Magdalena, Mabuyong, Milagrosa, Igpalge, San Ramon,
Igtumarom and Tagaytay and 955.63 Ha in the Strategic ARC Sub-Development Zone covering Nasuli C, Iba, Casay, Casay Viejo, and San
Francisco as the primary livestock growing and fattening communities. Practically, the whole municipality is. Anini-y, once the region’s best cattle
growing community has transformed its 82% rugged topography and marginal lands into something positive. The undulating and abruptly rising hills
and mountain with patches of flat lands at its slopes or tops will soon become a fertile pastureland and feedlot for its livestock fattening farmers. Anini-
y uplands will soon make the municipality as the prime destinations again of “viajeros” for the fattened livestock that after several weeks stay at some
Canlubang Farms are so marked. It is a fact, that this industry is many poor families’ passport to poverty alleviation.
2. The Nasuli C-Iba-San Francisco area will be the eastern community-based tourism corridor upon the activation of Cresta del Gallo Nature Park,
the scenic and unblock from view Iba-San Francisco “reviera” and Bantigue Camping Ground. Iba is its central node. It will draw in guests from
Western Visayas, and will cater to historical, adventure, recreational, and sports interactions of the tourists. Logically, Iba is the transport terminal
base.
3. The presence of livestock auction market situated at brgy. Iba with a total area of 1,100 sq. m. is one of the sources of income of the municipality
that contributed a lot. It plays an integral role to the above livestock industry areas because the livestock fattening farmers/hog raisers need not
transport their livestock to other neighboring municipalities in order to sell them. We are hoping that at the end of 2010 the development of its facilities
as one of the priority projects taken from 20% IRA will finish and that is by having a water system that includes the construction of water tank in the
area.
4. Above schemes strengthen Casay is one of the progressive barangays in the eastern part of the municipality. It caters commercial, institutional,
service including that of 4 Tobias Fornier barangays, the public market in the area is managed and maintained by the local government unit.
38
There are two schools in the barangay, elementary and secondary, the secondary is owned and managed by the Roman Catholic Church, one of the
sources of income of the barangay derived from the rentals of the barangay road that is used by the RTW vendors during market days. There is no
available space that can be used for residential purposes. Casay Viejo where the private cemetery is situated under the Parish of Sta. Theresa de
Avila. It was ascertained that the soil in the place is fertile and ideal for vegetables and fruit-bearing trees production.
5. The vast fertile valley and hills of the central barangays will soon be interconnected by branches of the central upland road trunk from Magdalena.
This Igtumarom-Igpalge-Milagrosa and Magdalena-Mabuyong uplands will become the high value crops-producing bread basket of Anini-y
through its combined 57.6Ha irrigated fields and other agro-forestry areas.
6. San Roque is the bangus fry capital of Anini-y. Together with Salvacion, these two fishing villages constitute the east area for fish landing.
7. Magdalena will become the central food processing center for high value crops, fish and meat from the surrounding barangays. Thus, Salvacion
will host the ecology park where material recovery and ecological solid waste management facility, and the municipal vegetable area will be
organically established. A penetration road will be established soon to connect the area from the lowlands public markets.
8. Nato remains as the tourism hub of the polygon. The irrigation dam site will be further developed into an alternative freshwater swimming area.
The trail up to San Ramon-Tagaytay radar site from Nagarip will be developed for horseback riding, hiking or cross-country biking. Butuan will and
Poblacion will be the dive launching area. Ang Simbahan ng Anini-y is a national heritage found in Poblacion. The Sagua-Talisayan-Lisub-Bayo
area will be the home stay program hosts for sport fishing enthusiasts that comes now regularly to Anini-y.
9. Nato, Butuan, Sagua, Talisayan, and Lisub A&B constitute the rice granary of Anini-y. While its production will not suffice the municipal needs,
use of the right inputs will enhance its output.
10. Talisayan is the fish landing area in the west. A cold storage facility as a support to fish processing industry will be established in the area. This
facility will support the fisherfolks’ need around the area from Nato up to Bayo.
39
11. Bayo Grande and Bayo Pequeño together with Lisub B will become the coconut producing and bamboo handicraft area of Anini-y.
12. All of the above developmental activities will be orchestrated in the municipal urban center –Poblacion and Sagua. As the major center, it will
serve as the administrative corridor and launching area of all actions towards the realization of the development option the municipality has decided
to embark into. It will also be the primary monitoring and evaluation point of the over-all development directions, aside from being the social,
economic, and service center for all growth corridors.
13. San Roque to become an Eco-Tourism Zone with its potential former island Hurao-hurao.
OBJECTIVE 1. To establish Poblacion as the urban center of the municipality of Anini-y, by the end of 2015;
OBJECTIVE 2. and the concreting of remaining unpaved portions of the national roads, by 2010.
Since the above development process would put pressure on the environment careful planning is thus, paramount so that whatever progress is in the
offing sustainable use of the resources is entrenched in the plan. Tourism Planning at the local level focus primarily on the identification of local
attractions or areas that have tourism potential to generate tourist traffic to these areas. While Anini-y does not fall within priority tourist areas, the
municipality must promote domestic tourism in view of downstream industries and multiplicity of activities connected with this industry that are good
sources of income, aside from generating employment for local residents. Tourism, when properly planned and managed can be an instrument to
enhance national pride in local customs and as venue to preserve or rebuild the physical environment. On the other hand, defining Tourism as a
purposive travel for cultural, educational and leisurely interaction, a defined tourism plan for any locality will surely bring about enhanced undertaking
in the midst of diversity.
In improving the quality of life of the people every possible tenet for income generation may be considered. Thus, sustainable growth demands that
LGUs should give due regard to resources’ carrying capacities for future generations and should protect all critical areas for conservation and
preservation. The concept of sustainability has grown out of the need to reconcile conflicts between economic development and the conservation of
environment. In Anini-y, the level of commerce and industry is deemed to expand in food processing.

42
OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND STANDARDS

On proposal affecting following concerns:
Population density is the standard used for classifying municipalities, cities or barangays into urban and rural. The national and provincial population
densities average 223 and 170 persons/sq km, respectively. By this standard, Anini-y LGU should declare Poblacion with 914 persons/sq km as its
municipal urban areas.
OBJECTIVE 1. To establish Poblacion as the urban center of the municipality of Anini-y, by the end of 2015.
Population distribution pattern of Anini-y is dictated largely by parentage/available home lots and ethnicity. Changes in population due to marriage,
not birth or death occur usually among “related,” barangays. Inflow towards west is observed as results of economic and political realities: physical
condition, occupation, presence of facilities/ utilities and civil position factor, whence incumbent and immediate past LCEs reside. Thus, population in
the 9 west flank barangays from Bayo Grande to Nato increased from 39.24% in 1995 to 39.56% at present. Population change due to literacy
concerns is negligible as educational facilities have strategic locations: Salvacion-San Roque-Magdalena population increased from 19.34% in 1995
to 20.72% now while the eastern flank –Mabuyong to San Francisco and the 6 upland barangays experienced a minus 0.57% and 1.14%,
respectively. The direction of physical growth is not very perceptible, though a little west-leaning. The presence of facilities and services in the
Poblacion-Sagua area makes it more favorable to residents while area geography greatly hampered other promising barangays. The availability and
or affordability of residential lots in the new urban center or near Poblacion have multiplied the effect of improved mobility of the residents.
In this regard, the LGU should ensure that physical infrastructures projects are duly dispersed and basic service delivery be brought closer to far flung
barangays, including the eventual administrative turn-over of Casay public market to Casay. Furthermore, infrastructure siting should be based on the
community’s development thrust, development constraints, available land for development, and concern for sustainable growth.
OBJECTIVE 2. To identify area in Iba where to establish the municipal transport terminal with its corresponding utilities and
amenities, by 2015;
43
OBJECTIVE 3. To allocate land and cause to expand telecommunication coverage of the remaining areas without signal, by the EO
of 2007 and the concreting of remaining unpaved portion of the national roads, by EO2015;
OBJECTIVE 4. To develop Casay as the growth center of the East with its corresponding utilities and amenities, by the end of 2010;
OBJECTIVE 5. To establish a ecological solid waste disposal and material recovery facility at Salvacion with its corresponding
utilities and amenities, by EO 2015;
OBJECTIVE 6. To identify area coverage of locally viable sustainable agricultural programs and fund its implementation, by 2015;
OBJECTIVE 7. To provide sufficient lands in strategic locations within or near the present markets and provision of critical support
services for future commercial expansions, and tourism concerns in Nato-San Ramon and Sagua-Talisayan-Lisub-
Bayo areas, by 2015;
OBJECTIVE 8. To establish a fish processing industry with cold storage facility and other amenities in Talisayan area, by 2015;
On proposed priorities in dealing with blighted or deteriorating areas:
Urbanization has set-in along the coasts of barangays Talisayan, Butuan, Sagua, San Roque and Iba and housing units are exposed to risk due to
tidal surges. Congestion and urban blight has occurred in these areas, Talisayan especially. Housing units in these settlements and portion of San
Roque are not properly laid out. Moreover, firefighters will have a hard time to penetrate the area in case of fire outbreak. The LGU should pre-identify
unproductive private lands that are compatible with the existing zones and where land valuation offered is low acquire some real property for its
housing program by funding for its acquisition under the 20% development fund of the municipality.
OBJECTIVE 9. To identify adequate and suitable lands and reserve them for future use as expansion areas of existing settlements
of each barangay, especially in Iba, Igtumarom, Nasuli C, Nato and Salvacion, by middle of 2015;
OBJECTIVE 10. To provide space relief, accessibility, basic services and facilities to congestions in Talisayan, Butuan, Sagua Iba
and San Roque, by the EO 2015;
OBJECTIVE 11. To fast-track the transfer of the DAR Administration Center and its 5–hectare Resettlement Site at Bantigue to the
municipal government, by the EO 2015;
On proposed areas, sites, or structures of aesthetic, architectural, historical, archeological, educational, recreational quality or
significance:
44
Anini-y has limited funds for the development of its tourism sites. Therefore, Anini-y LGU should encourage private sector participation and where
potential site is located, assist the barangay government and the lot owner to become active partners to joint tourism venture. The LGU resources
should be directed towards Siraan for having existing and developed tourist facilities.
The other potential tourism sites’ development rests on their being supplementary to this tourism hub and on how this hot spring resort’s facilities can
be optimized. The Anini-y Catholic Church’s belfry and other repair and maintenance need should be facilitated by encouraging the establishment of
a heritage center whereby donation and income derived from its operation may be used to fund such need.
OBJECTIVE 12. To develop the Anini-y Catholic Church Local Heritage Center, by EO 2015;
OBJECTIVE 13. To acquire administrative control of areas outside the lighthouse parameters and develop Nogas Island and its
marine areas as eco-tourism resort, CRM training center, dive site and recreation areas, by 2015;
OBJECTIVE 14. To map Cresta del Gallo and Mt. Aliwliw and establish their camping and adventure tourism features, by EO 2015.
OBJECTIVE 15. To acquire lands adjacent to Siraan Hot Spring resort as expansion area consistent with its master plan to become
the prime tourism center for science education, convention and recreation destination in Antique, by EO 2015;
On conservation, development, and utilization of natural resources including air, water, forests,soils, rivers and other waters, waterfronts,
shorelines, fisheries, wildlife and minerals:
Implementation of pertinent fishery laws and regulations that impinge on tourism, marine resource pollution and other illegal practices should solicit
active fisherfolks’ involvement through their BFARMCs by making the effort community-based and sustainable.The panorama along all open beaches
should be preserved by passing a legislation that prohibits the construction of permanent structures along these areas other than tourism facilities.
Establishment of private residences along the shores should strictly follow the offset restrictions set by law by conducting actual site visit before the
granting of building permits. A local tourism board should be activated as soon as possible by constituting NGA-LGU-CS partnership on building a
robust tourism industry in the municipality. National government agencies with programs related to tourism and sustainable development should be
invited for stakeholdership to be eligible for their fulltime support. The LGU as the major stakeholder in its tourism industry development should invest
substantially and should be financing its comprehensively-designed programs that specifically balances and ensures revenue generation and
ecological security.
OBJECTIVE 16. To delineate all beach areas affected by possible local measure that prohibits the construction of non-tourism
structures especially those that blocks the panorama, and invasive of the off-set restrictions set by law, by EO 2015.

HISTORICAL
DEVELOPMENTS
“ Hold fast to the strands of our glorious past. Let it serve as beacon of our quest for development,
a refuge in time of adversities and an inspiration for the young to achieve.."
46
Anini-y is one typical town of Antique that is imbued with historical facets and tourist attractions. Various myths and legends tried to explain how the town got
its unique name, "Anini-y" or "place of small rivers." This Spanish customary writing of Y instead of I spurred researchers to finding that once upon a time, in
the present area of the municipality, there existed a community called Igneini. It was cited to be the gateway into the prosperous Aninipay (old Panay)
kingdom of the mighty Ati king, Marikudo. However, cultural historians believe that "dash Y" in the name actually is "dash I" which is a Malayan suffix,
meaning "place/people of." This suffix is only used for a place that is very important or has achieve a degree of greatness, as in the case of Hantik-i which
later became Antique or used as in May-i believed to be the legendary old Manila.
Anthropological research reveals that Anini-y, specifically Sira-an hot springs, and Nogas Island, played a major role in the early civilization of Panay. Sira-an
hot spring, which is considered 'holy' by "manogbulong" or native medicine men, functioned as a quarantine station. Nogas Island's role was economic, as it
was here that "baking" or striped golden-yellow seashell used as currency in the kingdom of the Atis was abundant. As such, Anini-y was a garrison of sorts
with the multiple functions of "currency's minting plant" and as a guardpost for access to the kingdom's "headquarters." These strategic functions of what was
to be Anini-y resulted to pre-Hispanic "visitors" to Panay like the Chinese and Malayans staying north and a healthy distance from Marikudo's men in the
restricted area around Nogas Island. They settled outside of Anini-y causing it to remain very sparsely populated until the coming of the Spaniards.
Furthermore, the Santaren Papers declared that the landing of the ten Bornean datus took place in Embidayan. This is a rock formation at a beach that is
now part of Sinogbuhan but is claimed by local folks to have been part of Anini-y before but the leadership then failed to claim. Its mention is important, the
barter of Panay having historical significance. Said barter meeting took place under the "kadapdapan" which root word is dapdap -the old name of the last
barangay of Anini-y less than a 100 meter from the rock. Maragtas by Monteclaro also related that after the barter, the Atis went to the headwaters of
Igdaganas to live in Anini-y uplands. Anini-y started to blossom as a community with the coming of settlers from Asluman, Hamtik around 1630. Then came
people from Cagayancillo, an island southwest of Panay but a couple from Alimodian and Cuyo was identified to be the first non-Ati settler in Anini-y. This
explains Anini-y's intonation to be akin to Alimodian's.

47
Politically, Anini-y became an arabal of Dao -now T. Fornier, in 1840. The barangays of Casay, San Francisco and Sta. Magdalena were included under the
administration of Anini-y in 1848. As a political unit, its physical and social developments started under several capitanes in 1849 up to 1854 with the
construction of Dao-San Joaquin arterial road, Anini-y street system, schoolhouse and recruitment of teachers, and the first census of Anini-y.
It took a man of strong character, Fray Geronimo Vaquerin to manage and build the most enduring physical projects of Anini-y: the walls around the catholic
cemetery and the colonial baroque church, with an outside measure of 60x40meter and a three-storey campanario on a 10x10meter foundation. In 1895, four
brass bells arrived from Europe. These projects affirmed the fact that the people of Anini-y can accomplish outstanding feat, only if everyone contributed to
the effort as much as they could. The men worked on the walls and carried the heavy loads, while women and children brought the needed sand and stones
to the job site. There were hermanas who volunteered for food procurement and preparation.
The Spanish conquerors desired to achieve control, maintain peace and order, and facilitate tax collection. All community activities during the Spanish period
were put under the direct supervision of a priest, who in turn appointed or caused the election of a dominant local clan leader to act as the community's
capitan. The first capitan of Anini-y, Nicolas Magbanua, was elected in 1847. Those who followed and the year they started their tenure were Mariano
Magbanua (1849), Don Juan Grande (1850), Mariano Magbanua (1853), Lorenzo Asenci (1854), Victorino Suansing (1858), Lorenzo Asenci (1869),
Saturnino Erispe (1879), and Francisco Valle (1887). It was capitanes Catalino Magbanua, Saturnino Erispe, and Vicente Salcedo who helped Padre
Vaquerin most during the construction of the new church from 1890-94. Up to 1895, a capitan was elected or appointed every year and Gregorio Niervez was
the first capitan to govern for a period of four years. It was during his incumbency that the revolution heated up.
Conscription of Anini-y’s youth to the army to fight the moros or other Filipinos in other places, marauding moros, locusts devouring whole harvest,
intermittent poor harvest, hunger, earthquake as well as epidemic were reported in the chronicles to have troubled Anini-y in the past. The canonical books
had likewise reported that the people of Anini-y did not remain entirely subservient during all those years. With their “principales” leading, they were able to
expel a powerful Augustinian friar in 1875.
48
In 1900, the church and the convento of Anini-y were occupied and used by the Aglipayan community, as there was no priest in Anini-y during the revolution
until mid 1904. On the summer of 1908, church properties in Anini-y were returned to the Catholics.
The coming of the Americans at the turn of the 20th century and their introduction of democratic form of government reverted the status of Anini-y as an
arabal of Dao. Castor Belleza (1899-1900) and Enrique Fabila (1901-1902) were appointed consecutively as temporary presidents of the municipality, until
Catalino Salcedo (1903-1904) was formally elected president. Basilio Grande succeeded him as president and remained as such for several years. It was
during his term that the seat of the municipal government was transferred to Dao. This arrangement lasted beyond the Second World War. The 1940's
account of a very strong earthquake that caused land movements and sea retreating half a kilometer seaward remains in the senior citizen's psyche.
The Past Administrations
On August 5, 1949, President Elpidio Quirino signed EO 253 mandating Anini-y to cease from being an arabal of Dao and to become a separate municipality.
The late Juan C. Obaga was appointed its first mayor through the efforts of the late Antique Congressman Egmidio Nietes. Other appointed officials served
with him until 1951 when the regular election was held. The pioneer administration did little accomplishments as the town had meager revenue at its creation.
However, its population was very happy of their being independent from the mother municipality. The Obaga Administration of 1951-1954 improved a little bit
as shown in the increase in its revenues. Interestingly on the night of April 20, 1953, a group of Aglipayans, in an act of misplaced fervor, burned down the
new convent to protest against the marriage between an Aglipayan and a Roman Catholic held earlier that day. A quarrel, which surfaces in other form, from
time to time, has proven to affect many community relationships and processes, including rural development efforts.
Mayor Juan C. Draper became the chief executive in 1955. With assistance from Antique Congressman Tobias A. Fornier, chairman of the very powerful
Committee on Appropriations, the 1955-59 administration initiated plaza beautification, and improvements of municipal roads and public markets. In 1960,
Mayor Juan C. Ela who followed him instituted reforms and intensified tax collection resulting to police force augmentation, improvement/ expansion and
49
repair of old municipal building and increase of employees' salaries. It was under the Ela Administration that the fishery privilege of the town was bided at
higher prices.
Mayor Leon A. Sayo's reign started in 1964. Opening of new schools and new roads, construction of water and small irrigation systems, hiring of more
employees and police, and increases in salaries financed by rigid tax collection marked his administration. An avid Marcos man, he remained in office during
the martial law years after having been elected for three consecutive terms. Through a fiat, the addition of the ABC President and KB Federation President
as sectoral representatives expanded the membership of the Sangguniang Bayan. Since the positions are accorded the same privileges and remuneration
as the elected SB member, thence, sectoral elections became hotly contested.
It was during this period when communities and families were polarized into pro and anti Marcos factions with the disciplinarian and the stern, mostly the
parents, sided with the regime. Predominantly, the youths and the progressives were on the other side. Anini-y's distance from the capital town where the
opposition was strong, DYKA's weak signal and people listening more to Iloilo "sensational" stations, and absence of special projects and programs run by
Evelio's adherents espousing people empowerment left out Anini-y from the mainstream of social movements. The civil society's lackluster participation in
today's local governance and rural development efforts, even from coops that has survived for more than a decade is its result. In the first election after the
lifting of martial law, the people again supported Mayor Sayo. It was during his administration that Sira-an hot spring was developed as a tourism destination.
The longest reigning town chief's term ended with President Marcos overthrow at the EDSA revolt. When President Aquino took power, Virgilio T. Rendon
was appointed OIC, municipal mayor for two years. Briefly, Florentino M. Egida served for 2 months, more or less, as chief executive until the first post-EDSA
set of officers was duly elected. Mayor Rendon was elected into the position twice until 1995. The passing of RA 1760, otherwise known as the Local
Government Code of 1991 granted him and the local officials expanded powers and additional funds through increase in the local share from the internal
revenue allotment. His administration was characterized by the continuation of programs that was started under the previous regimen. The livestock auction
market became a good source of municipal revenue.
50
Nogas Island was given attention and a program was initiated to make it as another tourism attraction while preserving what is left of the island. During his
administration, the last of the upland barangays of Anini-y was connected to the main roads.
The immediate past LCE, Hon. Reynaldo B. Pollicar became municipal mayor during the second half of President Ramos' term, in 1995. His chief supporter
and project financier was then Rep. Exequiel B. Javier, Chairman of the powerful Committee on Ways and Means who briefly sat as the Antique governor for
one term then ran again and won his fifth term as Antique’s Lone Congressional District Representative. Like his sponsor, Mayor Reynaldo Pollicar completed
his 3 terms as the local chief executive of the municipality. The Pollicar Administration was marked by the very visible improvements in the infrastructure
sector and in the access to delivery of basic social services. Under his able leadership and close working relationship with then incumbent congressman and
later governor, the fondest dream of the people, which is the concreting of the national roads in the major barangays of Anini-y was realized.
The construction of 2 functional irrigation systems for Lisub A, Talisayan and Sagua, another for Nato and Butuan, and physical development of Sira-an and
municipal plaza, park and hall were also realized. Barangays that needed a permanent multi-purpose hall were provided access to this facility until he ran as
the town’s deputy and is presently setting as the municipal vice-mayor. Integrated coastal, upland and lowland projects deemed to bring economic
empowerment, socio-cultural developments and sustainable impact in the quality of life of the people of Anini-y were in various stages of implementation at
the end of his term, The holding of the 'URUKAY Festival" -a municipal agro-food industrial and cultural fair is dubbed to be a new direction in local
governance. It has provided the reason for the people to unite and celebrate as a community. All sectors have started to participate.
Another factor that should be mentioned in the glowing achievements of Mayor Pollicar is the all out support to his administration being provided by his Vice
Mayor Glenn E. Hernaez. Other incumbents are: Sangguniang Bayan Members Adviento Orlando P. Solis, Jessie Rey R. Cabasan, Efren D. Sumaculub,
Ariston V. Near, Serafin M. Formarejo, Bernabe E. Samones, Jr., Orlando O. Sumugat and Leticia Z. Fallar; ABC President Baltazar U. Aguillon and SKF

The Municipal Government of Anini-y serves as a general purpose government for the coordination and delivery of basic, regular and direct services and
effective governance of the inhabitants within its territorial jurisdiction. Such is carried out through a workforce of 57 regulars; 2 temporary employees; 26
casuals with plantilla; 49 job order basis; 11 local school board funded teachers; and, 23 volunteer day care workers receiving regular monthly honoraria.
Taking into consideration its service requirements and financial capability, the LGU has designed and is implementing its own organizational structure and
staffing pattern subject to the minimum standards and guidelines prescribed by the Civil Service Commission.
The Pollicar Administration is now trying its hand to explore the efficacy of the principles of "reinventing the government" and has set its eyes on tourism as its
vehicle to progress. Anini-y's geographic distance from San Jose, the capital town of Antique, and Iloilo City -the regional center is being capitalized as a plus
factor. It has become the local tourism mecca for visitors from municipalities of Antique up to far off municipalities of Iloilo Province for invigorating and balmy
rest and recreation. Add to this is the support provided his administration by his patroness (of tourism, arts and culture and other physical infrastructure), the
incumbent provincial governor –Gov. Salvacion Z. Perez.

Geographic Location
The Municipality of Anini-y is shaped like a cowboy’s boot with the now-annexed island of Hurao-hurao as its heel and the Nogas Island as its spur. It is the
southmost town of Antique and is located at the lowest tip of Panay Island between 121 degrees 01’35” - 54’40” longitude, and 10 degrees 24’50” - 28’38”
latitude. Anini-y’s jurisdiction stretches from Barangay San Francisco in the East and Barangay Bayo Grande in the west. The municipalities of T. Fornier and
San Joaquin (Iloilo Province) bound its mountainous north border while stringed along its entire west, south, and east coasts are 17 coastal communities
forming an arc against the sea waters of Panay Gulf. The rest of its 23 barangays are in the uplands.
Its urban center, the Poblacion is about 42 kilometers away from San Jose –the capital town of the province and 90 kilometers from the regional center, which
is Iloilo City. Casay, a fairly developed sub-urban center at the eastern half of the municipality is 10 kilometers away from the Poblacion. Fast developing to
become another sub-center between the aforesaid centers is the Magdalena-San Roque area. All of these areas are along the national road and are very
accessible by buses, jeepneys and motor vehicles, including bancas.
About one and a half kilometer away from the Poblacion is the 64-hectare Nogas Island. At present, a 420-hectare fish sanctuary has been established
around this island. Going south from the Poblacion, at about the same distance, just off Nato proper lies Sira-an Hot Spring. It is famous for its balmy and
sulfuric waters believed by many to be medicinal and have healing powers.
Climate
Anini-y experiences rainy season from the month of June to the month of October. It has the rainiest month in July where rainfall registers at 45.72 cm. Dry
season starts in November and ends around May. The driest month is April where rainfall is only 5.08 cm. Average rainfall throughout the municipality is
20.32 cm. The area is observed to be the driest in the region. It was severely affected by the draught brought about by the El Nino phenomenon during the
last years of this century.
56
Topography, Slope and Elevation
The municipality of Anini-y is basically uplands with 64.36% of its total land area above the 18% slope. In most part, its very narrow stretch of flat lands is
caught between a very rugged, mostly unproductive mountain ranges and a long stretch of coral –lined shorelines. In central barangays of San Roque,
Magdalena, Mabuyong, Milagrosa, and Igtumarom the landscape is flat to rolling to hilly to mountainous. On the other hand, major portion from south of Nato
up to Salvacion has a very narrow flat foreshore land and inclined steeply up to its summit. The winding shallow rivers and creeks in the municipality originate
from gullies formed on one side of erosive mountains and plateaus.
Mount Aliwliw is the highest point in Anini-y. A narrow and winding road from Barangay Fatima, T. Fornier leads to its peak that houses several
communication equipment and facilities. Its location is so strategic in the ASEAN region that the US Air Force attempted to establish a communication base
on its summit only that it was overtaken by the termination of the presence of American bases in the Philippine soil. Another peak worth mentioning is the
imposing Cresta del Gallo at Mount Nasug straddling the barangays of Iba and San Francisco. It is a potential tourist destination, if properly developed.
Geology and Geomorphology
The PHILVOLCS reports that a fault line traverses most of the municipalities of Antique, Panay Island being at the edge of the Philippine tectonic plate. This
plate is in “subduction” or lies over the huge Eurasian plate, which arrangement continuously raises Nogas Island and our beaches higher especially, when
plate movement occurs. This is the reason why in some fields and home lots 300 meters inland, local folks have uncovered shell and beach stone fossils
while digging their wells. This arrangement also explains the very steep mountains that abruptly rise from the narrow coastal plains. These steep sills can be
found at and extend from Lisub B to Tagaytay, Talisayan to Butuan and Iba to San Francisco or most of the west side of Anini-y. However, they have shown
to be hit a long, long time ago by series of landslides by the formation of hills at the foot of these extrusive masses. Sedimentary rocks make most of the
Earth’s surface in this municipality. The granitic Mount Nasug is generally, the older kind as it is so solid that it cannot be quarried unless it is drilled, blasted
with dynamite and then broken into smaller fragments with a pick or sledgehammer.
57
In Sira-an, scattered all over is basalt –a form of igneous rock. It is in this area where a bulge has been misconstrued as a volcano. A possible explanation of
the bulge is that molten matter from Earth’s interior is blocked by layers of solid rock in its path and has solidified forming a laccolith or the overlaying rock is
arched upward creating a hollow in between. Only the gases in the magma is escaping, thereby heating the water underground and pushing it aboveground
as mildly hot spring water.
Soils and Soil Fertility
The four (4) types of soils in Anini-y are: Alimodian Clay; Patnongon Sandy Loam; Magcalon Sandy Loam; and, the mountain soils that are not identified. The
decreasing volume of harvest from the rice fields signifies that many of the agricultural lands in the municipality are now acidic.
Slope Stability, Drainage, Tributary Patterns and Catchment Areas
Talisayan, Nato, Iboc, and Nasuli Rivers are Anini-y’s major rivers. Aforesaid rivers and other minor rivers, and their tributary creeks covering a total area of
115 hectares all empty their waters at sea. Hence, there is no lake in the area. Only rivulet remains of a stream that used to cascade about 100 feet down a
waterfall at Simsim Creek 300 meters upstream from a private school in the Poblacion. There are other cascades that have waters only during rainy season.
The winding shallow rivers and creeks in the municipality originate from gullies formed on one side of erosive mountains and plateaus.

A. DEMOGRAPHY
1. Historical Growth of Population/ Growth Trends
Anini-y is 20,599 strong in 2005. It took its people more than half a century to almost double their numbers from 4,541 in 1903 to 8,792 in 1960 and,
in a 10-year spurt (1960-70) increased by two-thirds that figure (TABLE DP1). Manila-based families were coming home. Comparatively, 1960
population (8,792) doubled after about 32.50 years only, in 1993 approximated at 17,616. Interviews revealed families leaving again for work outside
of Anini-y caused the population growth to sputter increasing only by 150 from 11,590 to 11,740 (in 1970-75). Then again, insecurities and hardships
in the cities in the late '70s stirred the people to seek peace and comfort of their homes in Anini-y for a 2.8026 average growth rate during the 1975-
1980 periods –the highest registered. The influx of Cebuano fisherfolks in 1980 up to 1990 sustained such increase by almost double than the
increase during the latter half of preceding decade but moderately slowed down after that to settle at a growth rate of 2.0921. The population grew by
2.3873% in 1990-1995, down again to 1.0096 at the end of the century and five years after in 2005, population growth level down to 0.9708.

2. Urban and Rural Household (HH) Population
Poblacion -the town's urban center has 150 HH with a population of 815 or 3.96% of 20,599 municipal residents in 2005. It is 13th in terms of
HH population. The transfer of Sitio Timbobog to Sagua and Sitio Bagumbayan to Butuan in the '60s greatly emasculated the population strength of
the capital barangay. Local institutions occupies 6 big blocks of the Poblacion leaving little area for residential purposes -a major factor to its having
small number of inhabitants. Overcrowded in present family lots, many new generation families constructed their houses just across the creek or the
barangay road making them residents of the next barangay.

Magdalena’s population of 2,241 is the biggest and Tagaytay has the smallest at 239, down from 252 residents 10 years ago. Presently, 8 barangays
have more than 1000 population now.

60
Of the town’s population: 8,246 or two-fifth lives at central-west cluster of Bayo Grande-Nato; 4,252 or one-fifth at Salvacion-San Roque-
Magdalena central cluster; 5,231or one-fourth at Mabuyong-San Francisco eastern cluster; and 2870 at the upland cluster (one-seventh or
14%). Other barangays which population has decreased from that of 5 years ago are Casay Viejo, Igtumarom, Lisub A, Mabuyong, Milagrosa and
San Ramon. TABLE DP2 indicated also the average urban HH size is bigger than that at rural barangays with 5.43 compared to 5.02 HH members.
3. Urbanization1/Distribution
TABLE DP2 further showed that the 2005 urbanization level of the Poblacion of 3.96% was very, very low compared to any of the
municipalities in Antique. Its growth rate had even gone down from a mere 1.8831 in 1995-2000 to 0.9035 in 2000-05. At the same time, the rural
area growth rate decreased from 0.9743 to 0.9736 during the same period -a clear indication of out-migration of residents from the municipality and
that the tempo of urbanization of the Poblacion was retrogressing as validated by the figure 0.9088 in 1995-2000 and minus 0.0701 in 2000-05
in the first matrix.
The availability and affordability of residential lots in adjacent barangays and those near Poblacion multiplied the effect of improved people’s mobility.
The slow growth tempo was due to the establishment of bigger stores outside Poblacion boundaries and the emergence of potential new urban
centers. The urban center was least dense among the barangays with 86 persons/ Ha of built-up lands due to its sections that are used for social
purposes with almost zero residents, followed by Casay. Both have big public elementary school grounds and secondary school campuses. On the
other hand, Casay hosts a big church and the second municipal public market (each standing in sizeable lots). Iba and Salvacion had the densest
built-up area at 1,835 and 1,338 persons/ square kilometers, respectively. Both are hemmed in by mountain and the sea and have nowh ere to build
but towards the mountains or up. Nasuli C, Talisayan, Bayo Pequeño and Nato are third to sixth most dense built-up areas, respectively.

Urbanization occurs when there is growth in the proportion of a population living in urban areas. An area's level of urbanization is measured by the percentage of urban population to the total
population of the area.

In TABLE DP4 below, Poblacion’s gross urban density is 1052 persons/ sq kilometer while Sagua had 1,309. The topography, accessibility and
the presence of facilities/utilities in the Poblacion-Sagua area were major factors for peoples' preference of these places for their residence.
Area topography greatly hampered other promising barangays. Casay, Iba, Butuan, Casay Viejo and Lisub B also exceeded the above 500 but less
than 1000 persons per sq. km. category. The rest was below 500. Tagaytay proved to be the most sparsely dense area at 80 persons/ sq. kilometer.
Anini-y is the third most densely populated town in Antique with 280 persons/ sq. km. The average provincial and national population densities in
1995 were 170 and 223 persons/sq. km. If population density is the standard used for classifying municipalities, cities or barangays into
urban and rural, then Poblacion and Sagua are highly qualified to be considered the municipal urban areas.

4. AGE AND SEX STRUCTURE
The 1995 age-sex distribution of Anini-y as plotted below tells the pattern of fertility, mortality and migration the population was subjected to in the
past and possible future course of the population. It showed more males than females in the young population of Under 1 to 4 and the opposite is
obtaining in the rest of the cohorts; young population as indicated by the proportion of 0-39 vs. the 40 and over brackets; and, the working population
has more members than dependent population. Generally, the constricted-based pyramid of Anini-y's population suggests declining fertility.
The 2005 Municipal Population Survey run by the MPDO was not able to capture the age distribution pattern according to cohorts designed by NSO.
However, the 1995 situation is more or less still obtaining in the municipality.

Last 2005, sex ratio of Anini-y is 10,309 males : 10,290 females or almost 1 male is to 1 female indicating there is a very slight male predominance in the
municipality. This is consistent with male predominance in Antique. Its child and youth population or those 5,757 children belonging to under 01-14 comprise
27.95% of the total HH population. Comparatively, the productive population (15-64 age brackets) at 13,089 workforces comprised 63.54% while the 7,294
dependents that are below 15 and over 64 years old completed the remaining 36.46%.

5. MIGRATION2 AND ITS MEASURES
The only available migration data for Anini-y is included here only for lessons that can be gleaned from it. In 1985-90 period, 668 persons including 44
balikbayans (4.51% total HH population) moved into town for an in-migration rate of 7/1000 population. This batch had more females than males and
came mostly from other towns of Antique or from unknown places. Many were women members of many fisherfolk families that in-migrated earlier.

6. MARITAL STATUS
Both the marital status and age-sex distribution when analyzed can indicate the fertility pattern in a locality. TABLE DP7 below indicated 10 years ago
in 1995, about 1.2% of the married couples in Anini-y exchanged marriage vows before they reached the age of 20. The number of married couples
peaked at the age bracket of 35-39. The age group with the highest number of married females was the 35 to 39 years old group.
7. MOTHER TONGUE
The mother tongue is the first dialect spoken by a person in his or her earliest childhood or the language/dialect that person learned to speak. TABLE
DP8 below showed the ethnic origins of the household population in the municipality categorized by mother tongue.

Migration is the movement of population, more exactly, the movement of people across a specified boundary for the purpose of residence. Along with fertility and mortality, migration is a
component of population change.

For 10 years old and over, TABLE DP11 showed 11,533 or 92.70% of Anini-y population was literate in 1990.
Among males, 93.20% of them were literate and 92.22% among females. However, for HH population 10 years old and over more females at 5,831
were literate than 5,702 males. Comparatively, the people living at the Poblacion were more literate at 95.05% than those at the rural areas at
92.59%. The data further showed more females than males in these age groups. Moreover, percentage-wise males were more literate than females
both in urban center and rural areas -consistent with the fact that the family opts to send to school the male than their female member when made to
choose. The 2005 MPDO primary survey revealed the literacy rate of Anini-y for 6 years old and above (16,526/18395) is 89.84%.

There was also an increasing trend at all groupings between those 5 years in the percentage of population in or have completed post-secondary
schooling. This showed that more and more students are shifting to vocational courses, especially for the population 20 years plus. There
was also an increasing tendency in the 20+ population to complete a college degree course. In 2005, the educational status is very, very
much improved. Those with secondary schooling compared to 15 years ago is 181.05% higher, the college undergrad has more than
doubled (208.9%) and those with academic degree has more than tripled (308.47%).

TABLE DP17 above shows the unemployment distribution of the 15 years old and over household population the analysis of which reveals that
34.78% or more than one-third of the unemployed labor force had completed only the various grades of elementary education especially those
belonging to the age 15-19 bracket. They were the worst affected by the unemployment problems followed by the high school graduates at 18.87% of
the labor force. Another 18.79% consisting of individuals with high school level education credentials were on the look out for possible jobs.
On stand-by were 6.14% of the labor force or 228 graduates waiting to be called or hired or just taking their vacation from long years of schooling.
The same unemployment scenario prevailed among unemployed female labor force. Among the males, almost the same situation existed except that
more individuals having incomplete secondary education were out in the cold than those who have completed at least their high school education.
TABLE DP18 indicated the 550 citizens employed (73.64% male, 26.36 females) overseas in 1995 were composed of the most numerous group of
college graduates (33.45%). They were followed by 156 post-secondary educated individuals (28.36%), 81 high school graduates, and 67 individuals
with elementary level of literacy credentials. Completing the circle of better paid workers were 31 high school and 27 college undergraduates hired for
overseas employment. It further showed most of the overseas workers, male and female, came from the 25-39 age cohort. It is gratifying to note is
that a sizable number of individuals (25.27%) beyond 40 years of age still work on very demanding overseas duties.

EDUCATION
84
“ The pace of our town’s progress depends on how much learning we get in education process.
Remember, that a little learning is not learning at all. ”
A. PROFILE AND ANALYSIS OF THE EXISTING SITUATION
1. Educational Institutions and School Facilities by Level
Learning institutions in the town of Anini-y offers only two levels of education, the elementary and secondary. The government purely administers the
elementary education in the municipality. Vocational/ technical education and manpower training institutions are not available in the locality.
However, 4 DepEd funded pre-school classes and 8 Parents-Teachers-Community Association (PTCA) funded pre-school classes are conducted in most
elementary schools of Anini-y school district. There are also 2 private pre-school classes offered by St. Andrew’s and another by the catholic parish of Anini-y.
Both private preparatory schools are located in the Poblacion.
Anini-y School District is composed of five (5) primary schools, thirteen (13) elementary schools, and four (4) secondary schools. San Roque-Ezpeleta
National High School (SRENHS) and Igpalge National High School (INHS) are public secondary schools while St. Andrew’s High School (SAHS) and St.
Therese’s High School (STHS) are privately run. The Aglipayans manage the first, the latter by the Roman Catholics.
All elementary schools are located in strategic population centers with each of the six (6) upland barangays having a school within their locality. Four of the
primary schools are in the highly dispersed uplands of Tagaytay, San Ramon, Milagrosa, and Nasuli-C while one (1) is in the lowland of Salvacion. These
eighteen (18) public schools occupy a total of 123,815 square meters or 12.3815 hectares. Casay ES has the biggest campus with 1.7086 hectares followed
by Anini-y CS with 1.3981 hectares and San Roque ES with 1.2387 hectares. Bayo-C.Unica MES, Igtumarum ES, and Igpalge ES are the 3 schools that
exceeded 1 hectare of school ground. Schools that have areas between one-half and one hectare are Lisub ES, San Francisco ES, Milagrosa PS, and
Magdalena. The remaining eight (8) campuses have less than one-half hectare area.

In terms of school facilities, clinics are established in the schools at Anini-y Central, Bayo-Crispin Unica, Casay, Iba, Igpalge, Igtumarom, Lisub, Silvino
Qubing, Magdalena, San Francisco, San Ramon, and San Roque. All ES have modified and improvised a classroom or a H.E. building into an administration
building. A classroom again is used for shop activities but is not called “shop” for it does not have the facilities and equipment of a modest shop. All ESs also
have a classroom called “learning resource center” but are not called library per se for some reasons. All schools have no laboratory, nor a sports center.
What the elementary schools have are some basketballs and at least, volleyball as sports equipment. Each school campus in Anini-y has a playground. All
schools have the comfort rooms. For other facilities, only Silvino Qubing MES in the lowlands has not constructed a stage due to acute shortage of school
ground. Moreover, all primary schools utilize their barangay stage for school programs, the same is also practice in all elementary schools in the uplands.
All secondary schools are likewise, strategically located. Igpalge National High School serves the secondary education such as Igpalge, Milagrosa,
Igtumarom and Nasuli-C while the central barangays, including San Ramon is covered by San Roque-Espeleta National High School. On the other hand,
western areas of Anini-y including the upland Tagaytay are served by St. Andrew’s High School, and the eastern portion by St. Therese’s High School. All
secondary schools occupy a total area of 20,978 square meters with St. Andrew’s having the biggest campus. All schools have science laboratory while only
St. Therese’s and INHS maintain a shop. All schools have Library, Administration Building and playground.
2. Total Population and School-going Age Population
The 1995 household population data by age-group and sex shows in Table D5 under the Demographic Sector the following information: age bracket 0-4
population for both sexes is 1,639; 05-09 is 2,310; 10-14 is 2,275; 15-19 is 1,911; and 20-24 is 1,605. Since the usual NSO groupings (5-9, 10-14, 15-19, and
0-24) are not suited to school-going age population for primary (6-10), intermediate (11-12), secondary (13-16), and tertiary (17-21) education programs
prescribed by the DepEd, school-going age population can be determined by applying the Sprague Multipliers6.
6
Using the Sprague Multiplier Method, the desegregation of an age bracket, for instance 5-9 years old into single-year estimates i.e., 5, 6, 7, 8, etc. is made possible.
87
This method yields 938 as the intermediate school-going age population, the secondary at 1,680 and the tertiary at 1,770. In this regard, the primary school-
going age vis-a-vis the total household population is 12.54%, intermediate at 5.03%, secondary at 9.01% and tertiary at 9.49% for a total of 36.07%
household population belonging to school-going age.
3. School-going Age Population and Present Enrollment
For academic year 2007-08, Anini-y School District enrolled 1,993 primary pupils and 840 intermediate pupils down from 2,224 and 1,074,
respectively of school year 1999-2000. These down turn is due to the slowing down in the population’s growth rate. These primary pupil-enrollees represent
99.18% of the total number of 1,942 children who are supposed to be enrolled in the primary grades. These data indicate that almost every 100 children aged
6-10 years, 99 are enrolled for an EPR2 of 99%. The remaining 16 children do not go to school primarily due to poverty or sickness. In some cases, there are
those who can not finish schooling for the school year for obvious reason and are considered drop out from the roll. Table E2 also indicates Nasuli-C has the
most number of enrollments for the primary schools and Anini-y CS for complete elementary schools. The 2 schools maintain that record for the last 5 year
period –2000-05. Enrollment in the second most populated ES –Magdalena is two-thirds that of the central school’s enrolment. Among the secondary
schools, STHS registers consistently the most number of enrollees during the period. SY2005 enrollment of 891at intermediate exceeded the 887 would
be-enrollee children for the particular year. This EPR of 100.45% means any of those children that have either dropped out of school primarily, for reasons
of poverty or sickness during the previous school year/s or are repeaters have re-enrolled. Furthermore, an enrollee beyond the intermediate school going
age may have returned to school and are included in the count. The presence of public secondary schools offering affordable tuition fees have encouraged
education.
Age 6 is computed: 1,639x-0.0080= -13.112; 2,310x0.2320= 535.92; 2,275x-0.0480= -109.2; 1,911x 0.0080= 15.288 for a total of 429. This method yields 455 for age 7; 472 for age 8; 490 for age
9; and, 492 for age 10. The total school-going age population for primary grade is therefore 2,338. If the interpolation technique is applied, assuming that each of the individual age in the age
bracket contributes equally to the total population of that specific age bracket, the total is 2,303. For purposes of this study the Sprague Multiplier Method will be used.
2
Enrollment Participation Ratio, EPR is a measure of the relationship of the number of enrollees by level over the number of school-going age population of relevant age level for every 100 school-
going age population.
88
Also, there are transferees from outside of Anini-y, especially from neighboring upland barangays of the municipality of T. Fornier and the children of
Cebuanos that have come lately to join their relatives that have made good lives in Anini-y. Any of these accounts contributed to the swelling of enrollment.

Due to unavailable data, only the INHS and SRENHS are being scrutinized in this study aside from the fact the aforesaid 2 schools are perceived to have the
most number of dropouts. Table E3a shows INHS annual enrollment trend is decreasing, though somewhat stabilizing by 1998. Freshmen girls and Junior
boys suffered the most number of dropouts. This validates the notion that when a family is made to choose, it is the female member of the family that is first
sacrificed. Furthermore, the family strives to send their male member to secondary school at least up to an age when he is old enough to go fulltime works in
the farms, in this case, starting the junior years.

Sometimes, they do not just quit. Due to poverty, they look for domestic household employment and transfer to other high schools near their new residence.
For school year 1996-97, 30 males and 38 females dropped out while only 6 males and 5 females quitted school for the subsequent year 1997-98. This is
very disturbing, as the numbers of quitters are already equivalent to 2 classes.
Table E3b has a story to tell. It indicates harder life for the families of SRENHS students during the school year 1996-97. Class 2000 had seen more students
have dropped out of SRENHS in that year compared to the other school years (1997 to 2000) they were in school with 34 dropouts as against 28, 30 and 24
dropouts, respectively. They witnessed a total of 116 quitters and the biggest batch of transferees in 1999 from a single school –21 SAHS Juniors students
whose families were mostly Talisayan fire victims and had moved to Hurao-hurao. Class 2000 composed of 60 males and 29 females entered SRENHS in
1996 and left its Alma Mater with only 36 males and 23 females for a record of 30 dropouts not completing their secondary education with them. This is a drop
out rate of 33.71%. Anyhow, the trend on dropping out is beginning to get better.
Most of those that stopped schooling were males: 25; 22; 22; and, 15 compared to 9, 6, 8, and 9 females, respectively –which result is opposite of what is
happening at INHS. Many quitters were entrants/ transferees from the 2 private schools. Their daily fares to SRENHS had tremendous effect on their family
91
budget aside from their absence from home chores while away that many decided to quit. According to some observations, many of these transferees have
had bad records in the private schools. Furthermore, these dropouts went back to the private school they once enrolled.

4. Literacy3 Rate
The 1990 NSO data under Table DP11 (Demographic Sector) reflects the literacy rate of Anini-y population for 10 years old and above at 92.70%. Among the
illiterates, 3.08% or 28 persons are in the Poblacion. The other 880 persons come from the 22 other barangays. The same data show more females are
literate than males as there are more female than male in this age group but percentage-wise, males are more literate than females. The same source Table
DP12 (Demographic Sector) in its comparative data for 1990 and 1995 for population 6 years and over by age and educational attainment placed Anini-y’s
literacy rate at 90.3% and 91.3 %., respectively. Overall, the literacy rate in the municipality is increasing.
5. Adequacy of Teacher/Classroom Facilities
3
Literacy is the ability to read and write a simple message. A person is literate when he/she can both read and write a simple message in any language or dialect. He is likewise considered illiterate
if he can only read and write numbers or his own name or if a person can read but not write.
92
Data show a general ratio of 1 teacher per 26 primary pupils (32 pupils 5 years ago) and 1 teacher for every 20 intermediate pupils (23 last 5 years).
Presently, an average of 27 pupils uses 1 classroom for their elementary studies in the municipality or a student-classroom ratio of 27:1.
All over town, 106 classrooms are being utilized for elementary education: 72 by the primary pupils and 34 by Grades V and VI pupils. The present pupil to
classroom ratio in the primary level is 27:1. The intermediate level also has 27:1 ratio.
Almost the same scenario 5 years ago is obtaining in the secondary schools: 57 secondary school teachers among the high schools in Anini-y (25 of these
teachers are in the public schools, and 32 are mentoring in the two private secondary schools). The general teacher to student ratio is one (1) teacher for
every 27 students and students to classrooms ratio at 44:1, down from 28:1 and 46:1 five years ago, respectively.
6. Condition of Existing School Buildings
The National Building Code of the Philippines has categorized school building according to types. Likewise, the DepEd sets standard requirements for
elementary and secondary school buildings, their adequacy, internal space, electrical facilities, including even its corridors.
Based on these standards and on the data reflected in Table E4 below, there are 56 Type III, 21 Type IV, and 48 Type V rooms and another 23 rooms of
various types that do not belong to any of the DepEd standard buildings. These are the result of local initiatives for repairs and maintenance, which have
altered the over-all appearance of these structures. Aside from these, prep classes are done in 6 PCTA funded/ initiated classrooms made of temporary
materials like bamboo, wood, and coconut shingles. Moreover, the 1 classroom in Igtumarom that is left unfinished in 2000 by a pakyaw contractor of the
DPWH is now completed.
93
The table further indicates 21 rooms that are very dilapidated and must be condemned as soon as possible. The next 40 rooms u rgently needed major
repairs. There are still 56 classrooms that are considered for rehabilitation and other minor repairs. Municipality-wide, of the 148 classrooms built in Anini-y,
only 31 of these are in better condition. These are schoolrooms that were recently constructed.

When examined per school, data show Nasuli C’s only multi-grade classroom is condemnable. Among schools with more than 1 classroom, Tagaytay
Primary School is in direst needs for new school buildings as almost 50 % of its classrooms are condemnable, followed by Igpalge ES with 33%, then by
Lisub ES, then Casay ES. Top among the schools with buildings that need major repairs are Bayo-C. Unica MES (62.5%), Iba ES (50%), and Lisub ES
(46.15%). However, engineering economics dictates it is better to demolish the structure than to make major repairs to dilapidated buildings. On the other
hand, only minor repairs and rehabilitation are the primary needs of San Ramon PS, Igpalge ES, Nato-Butuan ES. Most of the minor repairs however, must
be done to Anini-y Central School, Magdalena and Casay ES.
For the secondary level, state-owned Igpalge National High School is shown to have worst classrooms as 71.43% of its classroom buildings are in various
state of dilapidation and need to be condemned or undergo major repairs. The rest of the high schools have good classrooms.
95
B. DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND FUTURE SCENARIOS
The assessment of the development needs on education is an integral part of the study of the sector since the problems/ development needs serve as the
basis in goals and objective formulation as well as in programs and project identification for the sector.
B.1 Existing Needs
1.1 CLASSROOM REQUIREMENT
Using the data at Table E2, the information under Table E4, and the formula:
CURRENT STANDARD CURRENT DILAPIDATED

CLASSROOM = (CURRENT ENROLLMENT / CLASSROOM-STUDENT) – ( NUMBER OF – OR DAMAGE )
REQUIREMENT RATIO CLASSROOM CLASSROOM
By substitution, CURRENT CLASSROOM REQUIREMENT = [(2817 / 50) – (106 – 21] = -29
This formula tends to show Anini-y has 29 extra rooms. However, Tables E2 & E4 presented there are 148 classrooms in the whole municipality. But,
24 of these are used for administration, shop, library, H.E., and clinical rooms and Anini-y has 106 rooms used actually as classrooms. Since the 21
condemnable rooms are no longer utilized due to potential hazards it may bring, and considering the 23 makeshift types built through PTCA and other
96
Bayanihan efforts below DepEd standards are all condemnable, it will lead us to the conclusion that the district schools need 5 new classrooms for
immediate construction and a phase-by-phase construction of additional 40 new classrooms over a 10-year spread, as replacement units for those
that needs major repairs. It is also emphasized here, these schools are widely dispersed that to lump these pupils into 50-pupils classes is not
practical. On the other hand, classes are broken down into 2 when enrollees exceeded already the DepEd standard of 50-pupil per class.
For secondary level, INHS has one extra room used for administration purposes. However, it immediately need a new 1 unit- 2 classrooms building
and 3 of its 7 classrooms need to undergo some major repair jobs within the medium term. SRENHS has just enough classrooms but needs at least 2
more for administrative and library purposes. In the meantime, the 2 private high schools have no need for additional classroom.
1.2 TEACHER REQUIREMENT
The DepEd recommends a teacher-student ratio of 1:50 at the primary level in public schools, and a teacher-student ratio of 1:30 for kindergarten and
1:52 for primary grades for all private schools. A 1:50 teacher-student ratio is recommended further for private secondary schools. Using this
standard, data at Table E2, the information under Table E4, and the formula:
Current Teacher Requirement = (Current School Enrollment / Teacher-Student Ratio) – Current Number of Teachers
Anini-y has 37 extra primary grade teachers and another 27 intermediate grade teachers vs. the present crop of district public schools enrollees.
Likewise, the municipality’s national high schools and private secondary schools have extra teachers (INHS– 8, SRENHS– 4 and SAHS- 8, STHS- 5,
respectively). Somehow, the data could be deceptive as included in the information are teachers that do not handle any subject and are assigned to
administrative duties. Like the data in excess classrooms, this data if taken at its face value will result to wrong conclusions as the schools are
dispersed. Small number of students in one class is impractical to be fused with the other small number of enrollees in another distant school.
1.3 FACILITY REQUIREMENTS
97
a. Elementary Schools
Other than standard and sufficient classrooms, the Standards for Education require enough internal spaces for the school’s other basic
curricular and administrative needs.
Thus, Magdalena and Nato-Butuan Elementary Schools and the primary schools at Milagrosa, Nasuli C, Salvacion, Tagaytay, and
Talisayan badly needed the immediate establishment of a schools clinic while the school clinics in the rest of the schools need further
improvement of their facilities. Likewise, improvements are needed in all modified/ improvised administration buildings aside from the
sought after personal computers. They needed further modification to incorporate the guidance and counseling room, and storeroom.
All classrooms cum shop/home economics buildings are in dire need of at least the facilities and equipment of a modest shop or H.E.
They need to be modified to include lunch counters. All learning resource centers lack resource books, periodicals, encyclopedia set,
globes, maps, and dictionaries, etc. All schools have no laboratory, much more, a sports center. Most schools’ comfort rooms need to be
converted into sanitary types.
b. Secondary Schools
Anini-y has meager agricultural potential you can count in one’s finger the number of agricultural students from its ranks. Its young male is inclined to
prefer more the finer things in life and going to maritime colleges. Furthermore, service as a source of income (See Demographic Profile) and is
becoming more attractive to them. It is observed also that many households would like to have family service vehicles considering the municipality’s
distance from the regional and provincial centers. In this regard, Anini-y secondary schools need more the Metal, Mechanical and Electrical Trades
Shops than Farm Mechanics/ Machinery Shops and Fish Capture/ Culture/ Preservation Shop. Secondary schools in the municipality have modest
98
educational facilities and only Girls Trades/Homemaking, Practical Arts/ Technology and Home Economics, and Drafting/ Drawing shops are among
the secondary shops facilities present. Classroom and science laboratories are mandatory requirements for instructional and administrative spaces.
The 4 high schools need Guidance Counseling Rooms and Medical/ Dental Clinics, more books for their existing libraries and more apparatuses for
their laboratories.
1.4. NON-FORMAL EDUCATION
The male dropouts and out of school youths need training on Automotive, Radio and Electronics, Refrigeration, Carpentry, and Driving while the
women groups have been accessing assistance on food preparation, handling and preservation, and basic animal husbandry training.

2.2 CLASSROOM REQUIREMENT FOR THE PLANNING PERIOD
Table E5 projected there will be 2817 and 3118 school-going age primary pupils for the years 2005 and 2010, respectively. At the intermediate level,
there will be more or less 1127, and 1246 pupils respectively for the aforesaid years. Using the district’s current student-classroom ratio of 32 pupils
per classroom in the Anini-y School District both at the primary and intermediate levels, the municipality’s classroom requirement at the start of school
101
years 2005-06, and 2010-11, respectively are 123, and 136. Since the 2005-06 enrollment data is now available, this projection is short by 7
classrooms as 106 rooms are actually used as classrooms and 24 are used for administration, shop, library, H.E., and clinical rooms.
Another trend for consideration is the decrease in the number of school-going age population such that only 1,926 and 891 school-going
age primary and intermediate pupils instead of 2817 and 1127, respectively for SY 2005-06.
Considering there are 21 rooms that are condemnable and another 40 rooms that need major repairs of the 106 current classrooms available, by
2007 the municipality urgently needed 45 new or reconditioned classrooms aside from the 31 good classrooms and the 56 classrooms that require
minor repairs. Moreover, for the years 2010 and 2015, Anini-y Schools District will need 13 additional plus 10 new classrooms respectively. If funds
will not warrant, the municipality needs to institute measures that will require transferring some pupils to be relocated to the nearest school.
2.3 TEACHER REQUIREMENT FOR THE PLANNING PERIOD
In 2000, there were 71 primary and 47 intermediate class teachers for a 31:1 and 23:1 student-teacher ratio in the municipality. Applying the same
analysis/ approach and ratio of 32:1 in this regard, the municipality’s need shall be 123 and 136 teachers for school years beginning 2005 and 2010,
respectively. Anini-y needs 5 new teacher items by 2005 and 10 new teacher items by 2010 for an average of 2 new teachers every year up to 2010.
As of SY 2005-06, there are 76 primary and 45 intermediate (2 have retired) class teachers and a 26:1 and 20:1 student-teacher ratio. As
stated, every year up to 2015 the school district needs 2 new-teacher items.
For the most austere measure, the municipality will at least need 7 new teacher items up to year 2010 by having at least 40 primary pupils per class –
the most number that can be comfortably accommodated in a room as current classrooms are designed for 40 pupils/ room.
B.3 Space Requirements
102
School site size is largely determined by the level of education, enrollment size, type of curriculum offered and the location of the school -urban or rural. Per
DepEd Standards for Education and as presented at Table E6 above starting year 1999, Anini-y CS needs an additional area of about 1.5 hectares, not
withstanding its annex Marcos site. Under standard requirements, Casay and Lisub ES each needs to acquire 1.5 while Igpalge and Igtumarom ESs need to
acquire 0.5 hectare each. Their present school areas respectively qualify under special considerations, though.

Under the general rule, some schools will not be required to acquire additional areas as their pupils’ enrollment as projected will not exceed 500 up to
the end of planning year, which is year 2015. These are Bayo-C.Unica Memorial ES and Milagrosa PS. However, other schools urgently needed
additional grounds. Per standard requirements and even under special circumstances, the elementary schools at Iba, Nato-Butuan, San Francisco
and San Roque have areas that are less than required. Under the same predicament are the primary schools of Nasuli C, San Ramon, Tagaytay and
Talisayan. These 8 learning centers need additional school grounds.
For special mention are Magdalena and S. Qubing Elementary Schools and, Salvacion Primary Schools. They are in extreme need of expansion
areas for their school grounds are extremely inadequate as required.
Based on Table E7, Bayo Pequeño is more qualified than Casay Viejo to avail of the latest “school in every barangay program” of the national
government at least the first 2 grades while Butuan, Sagua, and Lisub B are more than qualified. However, these barangays need lots where their
school building may be constructed. Furthermore, this issue needs more thorough assessment so as not to render some existing structures in
existing school centers may be unduly rendered vacant.
105
C. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

GOALS: Increased literacy rate in the municipality
OBJECTIVES: By the end of 2015,
1. To provide adequate grounds to schools which have not complied the minimum space requirements.
2. To provide adequate classrooms for the elementary school children.
3. To upgrade existing school facilities, equipment and teaching techniques to meet the challenges of the new century.
D. SECTORAL PROPOSALS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
D.1 Policy Recommendations and Strategies
1.1 SPACE ADEQUACY AND CREATION OF NEW SCHOOL
a. The LGU should assist in financing school site acquisition of barangays with appropriate lots and when funds is inadequate, a criteria should
be set that will include among others the ease by which the transaction is consummated, affordability, urgency and location.
106
b. Where additional lot acquisition for elementary school is difficult, enrollment should be dispersed by creating an annex campus in the feeder
barangay for lowest grades pupils and the existing campus use should be maximized by resorting to construction of double-storey classroom
building and having intermediate pupils use the upper level.
c. When a qualified barangay is ready with its appropriate lot to avail of the “school in every barangay program”, the LGU should act cautiously
by considering thoroughly the issue of unduly rendering vacant some existing structures in the affected schools.
1.2 CLASSROOM AND TEACHER ADEQUACY
a. The LGU should be ready to exploit every opportunity that offers affordable fund-sharing scheme for classroom building and other facility
acquisition program by setting an infrastructure equity block fund and by convincing funding donors of our extreme needs and sincerity in the
joint undertaking. In the case of TEEP or SEDIP, the LGU should be ready to take on the extra cost that is way beyond allowable program
limits. In the event of classroom shortage, measures that will require relocating some pupils to the nearest school should be thoroughly
studied to minimize culture shock effect and family budget dislocation that may be brought about by this transfer.
b. The LGU should select the best among local teacher applicants. In the event of teacher shortage, the LGU should fill the need by hiring the
services of these applicants on honorarium basis out of the school board fund and giving them bonus points in the ranking.
c. The LGU should lobby for new teacher items and classrooms by having the PTCA Officers petition for the benevolence of national leaders.
1.3 FACILITY ADEQUACY AND CURRICULUM RELEVANCE
Formal and non-formal education shall be institutionalized as a tool for municipal development through better facilities and well-trained
teachers. In this regard, Anini-y secondary schools should promote vocational subjects complimenting the development needs of rural
107
households by focusing on electives relative to small and medium-scale industries based on locally available materials and resources.
Furthermore, secondary schools should improved its standard as a learning center by having among its top priorities the
institutionalization of guidance counseling, improving its laboratory and research facilities, and the provision of basic medical and dental
services to its students.

“Lack of access makes a household a squatter in its own country”
A. PROFILE AND ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING SITUATION
An overview of the housing situation is culled through a review of the 1995 Census of Population and Housing and the result of the Social Reform Agenda 2nd
Semester Minimum Basic Needs Survey for 1997 in the municipality. A reconnaissance survey of the municipality was also conducted by the MPDO Staff
assisted by the MEO and ABC Staff, and participated in by selected barangay officials of Anini-y. This is to validate NSO statistics and to plot-in new roads
and other developments not previously reflected. Perceived problem areas such as squatters, slum areas, etc. were duly recorded. Impressions and
observations made were likewise, reflected on the map. The outcome of said reconnaissance survey is shown on Map 1 below using the 1:10,000m scale.
The HLURB has established guidelines and standards in the assessment of the housing sub-sector. Each household or family should have a housing unit of
acceptable quality. All “barong-barongs” or makeshift housing units using mostly makeshift/salvaged/ improvised materials, as well as dilapidated houses are
considered unacceptable and therefore should be upgraded. Housing units destroyed by calamities like typhoon and fires should be replaced. Building of
114
mixed materials should not be entirely demolished, as only unacceptable portions should be replaced. Finally, houses not equipped with facilities, like flush
toilets or piped water, are not considered for replacements. Rather, the needed facilities should be provided.

(1990censal year: -3,085 total housing units; 2,969 occupied; 116 vacant.
By interpolation, the computation yields the following: an estimated 3,620 housing units with 3,502 units occupied and 118 unoccupied for 1999. However, the
very recent Family Survey for 1999 conducted by the Municipal Health Office yields a total household of 3,517 with a population of 19,522 for an average
household size of 5.5508. This is somewhat bigger than the 1995 survey result of 5.5453.
The 118 housing units that are vacant do not necessarily mean these are deteriorating houses and are probably unsafe for occupation. These units are
usually rest houses constructed by the side or near to concrete houses that prove to be very hot during daytime and the family-occupants desired/need
another shelter that is more comfortable without necessarily expanding its electricity bills. This is confirmed by the “only” 4 vacant units registered last 1970
census, after which the construction binge in Anini-y begun.

A.2 Occupied housing units, households, household population by type of

building Table HO2 presented at the left indicates Anini-y has no
multi-unit residential building.

The NSO classified and defined the types of building as follows:
There’s one commercial/residential building occupied by 4HH members and an institutional living quarters where lives 9 household population. Furthermore,
the ratio of the 1.014 households to a housing unit indicates the existence of doubled-up household or two households occupying the same housing unit.
It also signified a shortage of 41 housing units due to doubling of households. Moreover, 5.674:1 being the ratio of household population to occu pied housing
units showed there were 5.674 household members per occupied housing unit which was more than the average household size of 5.5508 discussed earlier.
A.3 Occupied housing units by construction materials of the outer walls and roof
Of the 2,969 occupied units, 77.47% constitutes units with outer walls made of bamboo or sawali, cogon or nipa. Those with strong materials such as
concrete/brick/stone, wood, galvanized iron/aluminum or a combination of any of these constitute 21.42% and the rest (1.11%) needs replacement. Further,
1,612 (54.29%) units have cogon, nipa or anahaw roof. Housing units that have roofs made of strong materials like galvanized iron/aluminum, tile, concrete
tile or clay tile, and wood or any combination of these constitutes 30.89% and those that need replacement of their roofs are the remaining 14.82% or 440
units. We can conclude therefore that in 5 years time, at least 1,554 units need major repair and or replacement of their outer walls and roof, and 2,300 units
need repair or replacement of their outer walls only. Table HO3 below indicates the construction materials the housing units in the municipality are made of.

A.4 Occupied Housing Units by Condition (State of Repair) of the Building, Year Built
The NSO classified and defined the current condition of the building/house as reflected in Table HO4 below. The year built referred to the year when
construction was completed and ready for occupancy and not when construction began. Data indicated that 72.08% of the occupied housing units as of 1990
needs no repair, or if at all, needs only minor repair. This was proportionately high when compared to those that need immediate attention.
It is worth to note that 16.40% needed major repair and the 121 units reported as dilapidated should be immediately abandoned or prevented access from
people. Further, a 4.65% on-going construction and a 1.86% on-going repair for a total of 6.51% total construction activity indicated a modest boom in the
infrastructure development sector. The data also indicated that more than half, at 53.96% of the houses were recently built, that is after 1980.

A.5 Floor Area of the Housing Unit
As defined by NSO, the floor area refers to the space enclosed by the exterior walls of the housing unit. Table HO5 below grouped the housing units by floor
area ranges against the number of occupants. The data showed that housing units occupied by 5 persons registered the most number and housing units
occupied by only 1 person tally the least number. In terms of floor area, housing units with floor area ranging from 10-19 square meters were the most
occupied units. This was because most houses are small and just made of temporary materials as shown in Table HO3 above. On the other end, housing
units with 120 and over floor area range were the least occupied. The table also indicated 8.42% of these occupied units (less than 10) offered a very
cramped living condition to its occupants. Census results showed that 92.22% had floor area of 69 square meters and below. Only 7.78% or housing units
that have spaces of 70 square meter and above were spacious units.

A.6 Households by Type of Building and Tenure Status7 of the Housing Unit
Table HO6 below indicated the household owns majority of the units or 95.28% and 99.93% of these units were single houses. It also presented
other information that could be used in determining the need when developing a housing project in the municipality.

The NSO defined and classified the tenure status of the housing units as follows: Owned/ Being Amortized – the HH is the owner and has legal possession of the housing unit, or the household
claims to own it; Rented – the occupants actually pays rent either in cash or in kind; Being Occupied for Free With Owner’s Consent –the HH occupies the housing unit with owner’s permission and
w/out paying any rent in cash or in kind to the owner, tenant/leasee; and, Being Occupied for Free Without Owner’s Consent –theHH occupies the housing unit without the permission or knowledge
of the owner.

A.7 Owner-Households in Occupied Housing Units by Tenure Status of Lot8
Majority or 64.23% own the lot where their housing unit was erected while 9 HH squatted on lots found outside of Poblacion (Table HO7). What was
disturbing is that, more than a third, or 35.77% of the housing units were built on lots that were not owned by the household. Therefore, most if not all of these
structures were very temporary in nature, except maybe for units that were erected on lots that the household will inherit in the future, thus required frequent
repair.

The NSO classified and defined the tenure status of lot as follows: Owned/BeingAmortized – ownership of land in rural areas includes mere occupancy of any public land. This also includes house
owners paying the land on installment basis or holders of certificates of land title under the land reform program or house/lot awardees of housing loans from PAG-IBIG, SSS, GSIS, or commercial
banks. Rented– a fixed amount is paid by the occupants in cash or in kind. Occupied for Free With Owner’s Consent– the household occupies the lot with the permission of the owner and without
paying any rent in cash or in kind to the owner, tenant/leasee; Occupied for Free Without Owner’s Consent– the household occupies the land without the consent or knowledge of the owner.

Sanitation improved dramatically during the Ramos Administration through SRA (Table HO8 above). From a little less than 50 % of the housing units that had
water-sealed toilet in 1990, figures almost double to 80.90% in 1999. Households with unsanitary toilet facilities, like the pit type have gone down to 6.46%
121
while those without disposal facility at all are reduced to 12.78%. This is probably due to the reduced number of very temporary households or its residents
have moved out of the municipality as indicated by the reduced total number of households in the municipality per the primary survey conducted by the MHO.

From 406 HH with access to community piped-water system in 1990, there were 660 HH or 18.17% getting water from Level 2 and 3 water facilities.
Households served by deep and shallow wells had increased in number, from 46.44% to 65.81% causing a decrease in the households deriving water from
unsafe open dug wells. However, there were 13 HH with doubtful sources of water for domestic use.
A.10 Number of Households by Kind of Fuel Used for Lighting

Anini-y was and is still under-served by ANTECO. Only 16.5% of the total households were the ones benefited by electricity last 1980, 32% in 1990, and
44.24% in 1999 -a significant increase from 1980 to 1999. Houses served by electricity doubled in a decade and almost trebled in 20 years. The remaining
households -76.97% in 1990 and 55.76% in 1999, used kerosene and maybe other types of lighting materials for their lighting. On the other hand, those
using kerosene for household lighting decreased from 83.5% to 68% to

No household was using liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), oil or other energies for lighting. Observation reveals that, while households had electricity they still
use kerosene lamps after the electric lights shall have been put out to sleep during the night.
A.11 Number of Housing Units in Danger Zones
Presently, no housing units are in danger from any infrastructure project implementation. No units are also subject of court eviction or any other legal means.
What could probably be subjected to danger are those structures located along the seashores as Anini-y’s 17 barangays lay along the coasts of the
124
municipality. Particular mention is the barangays of Talisayan, Butuan, San Roque and Iba. During the height of tidal surges, especially during the stormy
months from June to November very temporary housing units are exposed to risk as waves tends to overflow low-lying areas and erode the soils whereupon
these structures are erected. Household-owners however, have learned to cope with the situation. They have established cheap wave breakers made up of
bamboo trunks. The government could ease their concerns if a dike could be constructed along these coasts.
A.12 Blighted/ Squatter Areas
The uncontrolled influx of Cebuano fisherfolks with their families to this part of Antique in search for fertile fishing grounds resulted to blighting the areas
where some locals allowed them to have their shelters erected. Specifically in Talisayan where they have literally encamped, their housing units were so
cramped and their settlement unblocked that firefighters found it hard to penetrate their area to succor them in putting out the fire. Fast developing into sort of
a slum is that part of San Roque where some victims of a fire tragedy in 1998 have moved their families. Again, the new settlement is haphazardly planned
that their very temporary shelters will soon be candidates for another fire mishap. Only 25 families where extended core shelters by the DSWD and Anini-y
LGU.
B.1 Problems and Development Needs
B.1.1 ACCESS AND DISASTER RELATED PROBLEMS
125
a. Many housing units along the coasts of barangays Talisayan, Butuan, San Roque and Iba are exposed to risk due to tidal surges. There is a
need to relocate them to safe areas about 100 meters inland. However, due to home lot unavailability problem there is a need to construct
dikes along these coasts as this project could also prevent further encroachment on the seashores.
b. Talisayan, Butuan and Sagua are the more densely populated areas in Anini-y and congestion has set-in, especially in Talisayan. The LGU
needs to open up immediately housing areas to relieve their residents of the congestion they are experiencing. Housing units in these
settlements are not properly laid out. There is the need to provide the necessary access roads. Moreover, firefighters will have a hard time to
penetrate the area in case of fire outbreak. There is a need to prepare a re-blocking plan for these areas, including Nato and Lisub B. It is
also necessary to identify and set aside portion of these areas for future settlement site expansion.
B.1.2 LACK OF HOUSING FACILITES
a. Three upland barangays and several other inaccessible Anini-y puroks are not served by ANTECO. There is a need to identify sources of
alternative and renewable power sources for these areas and set aside the lots necessary for the purpose. Other problems relative to power
supply access are discussed under the Power Supply Sub-sector of this study.
b. There are 13 households with doubtful sources of water for domestic use. There is a need to prioritize them in any LEVEL 1 water supply
project of the government and ensure year-round access to the facility.
B.1.3 CURRENT HOUSING DEMAND
Using the results of the 2005 MPDO Primary HH Survey and the formula:
( total total ) ( total no. total ) ( total unacceptable barong )

CURRENT HOUSING DEMAND = ( HH – housing ) + ( of families – HH ) + ( housing units or 5% H.U. – barong )
( 2005 units2005) ( 2005 2005 ) ( made of mixed mat’ls )
126
current housing demand for 2005 = ( 4093 – 3856 ) + ( 4343 – 4093 ) + ( 5% of 722 – 4 )
= 237 + 250 + 32
= 519
These structures may be established in areas that are up for sale like the lot at the back of St. Andrew’s High School at the Poblacion, the Ezpeleta
Estate at San Roque or at the Department of Agrarian Reform’s 5-hectare Resettlement Site at Bantigue, San Francisco.
B.2 Shelter Needs Assessment
B.2.1 PRESENT HOUSING NEEDS: NEW UNITS DUE TO BACKLOG
Adequacy of the current provisions for housing and projection of new housing units determine the shelter needs. The first is based on one dwelling
unit per household, minimum requirement for basic services and facilities, habitability of existing households, etc. and the latter is based on the
formation of new households.
Per the above presentation, Anini-y needs 519 housing units to fill its doubled-up housing units back log. Furthermore, Anini-y needs additional 30
core shelter units for its fire victims as the LGU was able to assist only 25 families. The municipality also needs to respond to portion of those 1612
housing units in 1990, in which 722 families probably occupying part of the number, reported during the 1997 SRA survey to be having problems on
their temporary shelters that are unacceptable to standards of a decent home. These 722 families will soon become homeless.
B.2.2 FUTURE HOUSING NEEDS: DUE TO POPULATION GROWTH
The future housing demand for Anini-y is computed using the MPDO’s 2005 housing unit data and the formula:
rxt
FUTURE HOUSING DEMAND = X.e
127
where: X = housing units at the latest census 3536
e = 2.71828 (a constant)
r = rate of increase of housing units between two censal years
t = time interval between latest housing censal year and projected planning years
and, r = ln (Housing Units in 2005 / Housing Units in 1990 ) = ln ( 3856 / 3085 ) = 0.01487
2005 – 1990 15
Future Housing Demand (2010) therefore is 3856 x 2.71828 raise to the power of (0.01487 x 5 ) = 3856 x 1.0772 = 4154 units. The current ratio of
households to the no. of housing units is 1.062:1 or 6.21% of the households still double up each year as the case of new mar riages that continue to
stay with their former families. Thus, 93.79% of the housing units may be provided for or Anini-y FHD 2010 is only 3897 units.
The total residential area of the municipality per latest tax revision done last 1998 is 59.3631 hectares. Therefore, its Residential Density (1999) is
equal to its 1999 projected population of 20,229 divided 59.3631 hectares or 341 persons per hectare of residential area. Reckoned against the 1999
municipal average household size of 5.5508 this residential density gives us a Household Density of 341/ 6 equals 56.8333 households per hectare
of residential area for an Average Lot Size per Household of 175.9532 square meter per household in 1999. The table below indicates the home lot
areas that the respective barangays need to be identified and reserved.

B.2.3 UPGRADING NEED
The household owns 95.28% or majority of the units each is respectively occupying and 99.93% of these units are single houses. The 1998
Talisayan blaze solved for the municipality its problem with regards to tenure improvement need. On the other hand, the infrastructure improvement
needs of 670 HH with unsanitary or without toilets, 403 HH with potable water problems, and 2013 HH unserved by ANTECO were each discussed
under the Health, Water Supply, and Power Supply Sub-sectors, respectively.
What the municipality is presently confronted with is the structural improvement needs of 722 households that registered during the Social Reform
Agenda survey of not feeling secured with their current abode due to material and construction infirmities. This number includes those units
identified during the 1990 NSO Census on Population and Housing having need for major repair, are dilapidated and, partially completed.
B.3 Affordability
The farming-fishing-laborer-unemployed segment of Anini-y society that the Demographic Profile of Anini-y showed to be about 2,500 households
could be the logical target income groups. Taking into consideration lessons learned from the LGU core shelter project at Lisub B, the best option
based on what these households can afford is the upgrading of their present dwelling.
It took most of the fire victim families about a year, more or less, to complete the core shelter alone. This is because a typical poor household rarely
set aside a percentage of its income on shelter-related expense. In this regard, whenever the LGU so decide to go into a housing program, there is
a need to review and further improve the terms and conditions on the affordable loan package and the implementation scheme used in the core
shelter program.
129
B.4 Resources Needed for Housing
B.4.1 LAND AND INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS FOR HOUSING
The municipality has very limited land assets: the lot where the town hall and the plaza and park are established, the areas where its municipal
markets are situated and the lot where the livestock auction market stands. It needs to acquire some real property for its housing program. It needs
also to fast-track the transfer of the DAR Administration Center and its 5–hectare Resettlement Site at Bantigue to the municipal government.
On the other hand, barangays San Ramon and Milagrosa have set aside home-lots from barangay site purchased out of the Countryside
Development Fund of the Congressman. In this regard, the municipality needs to assist its barangay governments to access financial assistance
from the district representative for their socialized housing projects. Furthermore, many local families have set portions of their properties for their
children’s future home-lots. The LGU needs to identify these family-reserved areas and mark them as part of the proposed housing lots of such
barangay. Otherwise, it needs to pre-identify unproductive private lands that are compatible with the existing zones and where land valuation
offered is low and program them for acquisition under the 20% development fund of the municipality.
The Implementing Guidelines of RA 7279 have provided standards for the Inventory and Identification of Lands and Sites for Socialized and Non-
Socialized Housing. In furtherance of the provisions of the same act, lots deemed suitable for housing have been identified and marked for
immediate and future needs of the underprivileged and homeless in the urban and “urbanizable” areas.
As mandated by Urban Development and Housing Act of 1992, the LGU needs to provide the basic services and facilities in the marked areas that
will include potable water, power and electricity, adequate solid waste disposal systems and access roads.
130
B.4.2 FINANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR HOUSING
After thoroughly examining all government housing programs and projects enumerated under ANNEX 4, the LGU has hardly any means to go into
any housing program for its residents. Most likely under LOCAL GOVERNMENT PABAHAY PROGRAM, to respond to 722 households, which soon
will have dwelling units unfit for habitation it will need Php 18.05M just to extend core shelter loans of Php 25,000.00 each household. Under
COMMUNITY MORTGAGE PROGRAM to re-block 5 barangays presently suffering from congestion, it will need a minimum of Php 27.50M for lot
acquisition, basic services and other forms of assistance.
B.5 Resources Available for Housing
Hard problem needs innovative solution, like the one used by the Habitat Philippines Foundation. This approach will require massive community
and resource mobilization in partnership with volunteers from all sectors for the benefit of marginal households. In this regard, the LGU needs to
mobilize young CMT and college volunteers’ free labor for construction, hollow block manufacture and shingles production. On the other hand, LGU
officials need to tap the services of members of engineering associations for engineering supervision or conduct of training- seminars on house
building. Likewise, they need to or could access the Php 1M per district Congressional Fund for the housing program.
131
GOAL: To improve the housing conditions particularly the middle and low-income family households.
OBJECTIVES: By the end of the year 2015,
1. To identify adequate and suitable lands for economic and socialized housing in 5 barangays.
2. To assist middle and low-income families’ access to decent shelters that conforms to acceptable standards.
3. To reduce congestion in the 5 barangays.
4. To provide basic services and facilities to the housing/ settlement areas.

132
D.1 Policy Recommendations and Strategies:
a. Municipal and barangay governments should progressively take over the planning, implementation and management responsibility of
housing projects in their localities by acquiring suitable foreclosed/ low-value real property assets through fund accessing and equity
sharing, and participating in joint venture housing projects with higher-level government agencies with maximum private sector participation.
b. The LGU should construct housing units within the affordability level of target beneficiaries by promoting self-help housing whereby low-
income families shall have access to subsidized building material packages, and with the corresponding financial aid, in order to construct
dwelling and continuously improve them by their creative efforts.
c. The municipality should ably respond to the basic housing service needs of the community by requiring every barangay’s disaster
preparedness plan to highlight their respective critical housing facility requirements.
d. Housing projects for the poor must not be a government dole-out. Its implementation’s degree of success should be ensured by having it
run by private volunteer organizations and not decided by politicians, and by improving on the terms and conditions on the ‘loanable’ portion
of the package being used for the core shelter program.
D.2 Targets:
1. Future settlement site expansion for all barangays identified by EO 2008
2. Home lot areas that the respective barangays need identified and reserved by EO 2008

19. Alternative and renewable power sources for 3 upland areas not served by ANTECO (refer to Infrastructure Sector Plan) by EO 2010
20. 50% of the remaining 2013 housing units served by ANTECO (refer to Infrastructure Sector Plan) from EO 2008-2013
E. PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
E.1 Identification of Programs and Projects
134
Actual land allocations for shelter in the land use plan may vary depending on total urbanizable land and the LGU’s prioritization for land allocation
for urban uses. In the face of limited resources, manpower and other constraints not all identified programs and projects can be programmed. They
are therefore, prioritized for implementation within the planning time frame taking into consideration the relative urgency, feasibility, percentage of
population to be served, and conformity to national programs.

HEALTH
“Human Development and a better quality of life for all Filipinosare the
overriding goals of the Medium Term Philippine Development Plan(MTPDP)”
136
Health status of the municipality such as fertility, mortality and morbidity are determined through general health indicators: Fertility is measured through the
Crude Birth Rate9 (CBR) and Total Fertility Rate (TFR); morbidity indices consist of the General Medical Consultation Rate (GMCR) and Hospitalization
Rate (HR); and, mortality indicator includes the Crude Death Rate (CDR), the Swarrop-Uemura Index or the Proportional Mortality Ratio (PMR), Infant
Mortality Rate (IMR), Young Child Mortality (YCM) and Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR). The aforesaid required data for the study of the health conditions in
a municipality must be the most recent and duly validated. Anini-y is somewhat fortunate that the Municipal Health Office has just completed their Family
Health Survey. In this regard, the data that will be used in this discussion are the result of that survey.
A.1 Fertility Indices
The RHU Report has no barangay breakdown but its 2005 Family Health Status Information System (FHSIS) indicates 305 live births for an average
of 15 live births per 1000 population; male –156 and female –149; male-female ratio is 1.05:1.place of deliveries are: home –241 and hospital –64;
types of pregnancies: normal –257 and risk –46. This CBR is down from 21 reported in 1999 (Table H1).
Five years ago, Magdalena and Talisayan both register 38 –the most number of live births. Salvacion had the highest crude birth rate at 30.79% (higher by
10.27% than the municipal average of 20.50%) and Bayo Grande the lowest 5.59%. Talisayan with 22 males has the most number of male new born while
Magdalena with 24 females has the most number of female new born (Table H2). No child died at birth that year. Using year 1999 projected child bearing
female population (15-44 years of age) of 4584, Anini-y’s present fertility rate, TFR is 66.54 or 67 livebirths for every 1000 females in childbearing ages.
9
Crude birth rate, CBR is the ratio between number of live births and the number of individuals in a specified population and period of time often expressed as number of live births per one
thousand populations in a given year.

A.2. Morbidity Indicators10
It is reported that 8,270 residents reported for medical consultation in 2005 for a GMCR of 402 for every 1000 population up from 293 (5,915
residents) in 1999. This indicates more residents are getting sick (29.24% in 1999 to 40.15% in 2005) or a 10.81% increase.
In 1999, most consultation then came from Magdalena (1,090) followed by Butuan (579) with Tagaytay the lowest. However, Igpalge incurred the most
number of consultations per 1000 population. For every 1000 residents of Anini-y, 9 people were hospitalized based from the reported 183 cases of
hospitalization in 1999 for a municipal hospitalization rate, HR of 9.05. Most people hospitalized came from Magdalena and Talisayan. Bayo Pequeno
registered the highest HR, Tagaytay in close second. Tagaytay and Bayo Pequeno folks had their sick members undergone medical consultation when
their patients were already very ill. This can be attributed to poverty. Aggravating Tagaytay’s predicament is their accessibility and distance “from
civilization”.
10
Morbidity Indicators such as general medical consultation rates (GMCR) and hospitalization rates (HR) reflect the morbidity situation.
139
A.3 Mortality Indicators11
The same 2005 FHSIS reported 108 deaths: 53 males and 55 females died that included 1 infant and 2 stillbirths. Anini-y PMR is 834 as indicated
by 90 deaths belonging to those ages 50 years old and above. This means that for every 1000 deaths in 2005 due all causes, all ages, 834 deaths will
belong to the age group 50 years old and over. This PMR is higher than 773 in 1999 when only 35 males and 40 females died last year at age 50 years old
and above. Table H3 below shows 2 females: 1 from Bayo Grande and 1 Poblacion died at the age of 92 years, the oldest recorded for 1999. The youngest
died in Nasuli C at age 50 years, a female. Most deaths (11) occurred at Casay while no one died at 50 years old and above in Bayo Pequeño and
Tagaytay.
For 2005, Anini-y’s crude death rate, CDR12 is 5.2430, up from 4.8445 of 1999 but is lower than the provincial’s 5.75. This means Anini-y has an
estimated average ratio of 6 deaths per 1000 population for the year 1999. Table H4 further shows the most deaths occurred at barangays of Casay and
Magdalena with 11 deaths each. More males died than females.
Infant Mortality Ratio, IMR is the number of deaths to infants under 1 year of age per 1000 livebirths in a given year or it is the risk of a child dying before
reaching his/her first birthday or during infancy. IMR is computed as the ratio of the number of infant’s deaths to the total number of livebirths in a year,
multiplied by one thousand for any given area. It is often a good indicator of the socio-economic development of a given area. A high infant mortality rate is
usually associated with poor economic situation, inadequate medical facilities, and a generally low educational level of the population.
Young Child Mortality, YCM is the number of deaths, all causes of children aged one to four (1-4) in a calendar year per 1000 population. TABLE H6 below
showed Anini-y has a YCM of 4 X 1000/ 1778, the projected population for 1999 of those belonging to 1-4 age bracket or 2.25%. This means that the
mortality of young children aged 1-4 in 1999 was at 2 deaths per 1000 population. Furthermore, all these young children died due to pneumonia.
11
Mortality indicators include the crude death rate and the proportional mortality ratio of age 50 years and over, current infant mortality, young child mortality (1-4 years) and maternal mortality.
Using the Swarrop-Uemura Index or the proportional mortality ratio (PMR), deaths in age 50 years and over in a calendar year per 1000 deaths, all causes, all ages in the same year may be
computed.
12
Crude death rate is the number of deaths/ 1000 mid-year population of a given area.

From Tables H1 & H4,5,6 above, the IMR is 9.84 for Anini-y in 2005 –way below the 7.23 in 1999 and the provincial IMR of 16.94. Table H5 below,
showed Lisub A, Nato and Tagaytay incurred 1 death each, all males for infants less than 1 year old. The death in Nato was clearly caused by financial
hardship.

A.4. Causes of Mortality and Morbidity
Historically, 5 death-causing illnesses have figured since 1995 up to the first 5 years of the present decade 2005. Pneumonia has always been the
no. 1 killer disease followed by Cardio-Vascular Arrest due to Hypertension. In this decade, Cancer (all forms) overtook Heart Disease and Pulmonary
Tuberculosis to be at third. While Accidents (all forms) remained at 6 th place in 2005, in the last 3 years it is out of the top 10 death-causing items.
Myocardial Infarction also did not figure much in 2005 but is No. 6 killer for the last 3 years. Wounds and GI Bleeding – PUD have been inflicting death
regularly from 2003-05 to earn the seventh and tenth slots. In 2005, Degenerative Osteoarthritis and Bronchial Asthma tied at 7 th and 8th rung. Diabetes
Mellitus persisted and is still in 9th place while an increase in peace and order problems raised Wounds to 10 th place –which figured only since 1999.
The rest of the upcoming death-causing diseases during the last 3-year period are Liver Cirrhosis, Diarrhea, and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
Seven out of 11 diseases from the last century are still around except for Malnutrition, Congenital Diseases, and Glomerulo-Nephritis.
13
Maternal Mortality Rate, MMR is the number of women who died as a result of child bearing in a given year per 1000 births in that year. Maternal deaths are those caused by complications of
pregnancy and childbirth.

Statistics show Acute Respiratory Infection, ARI and Pneumonia as the leading cause of diseases in Anini-y since the last decade. ARI is computed to be
followed by Pneumonia that brought discomfort to 4,421 denizens from 2001-2004. Influenza has overtaken Skin Problems from the third spot with 2,586
and 2533 cases, respectively during the same period. Injuries -fifth last decade is slated again as fifth overall for the 4 year study period endangering 1,817
lives.
From 9th in the 90’s Musculo-Skeletal Disorder is now rank 6th with 1,404 cases, and followed by Gastrointestinal Disorder at 7 th with 1,319 cases. Bronchitis
is now down to 8th place with 1,171 cases. Alveolar Abscesses figured only in 2002 and 2004 but the 1,028 affected populations put it to ninth. It is rounded
off at tenth by Hypertension with 982 cases. It is worth to note Anemia has emerged and even figured in 2003 as no. 9 leading causes of diseases. Dog
Bites have broken into the scene and cases are steadily increasing. Other causes of discomfort: allergy; diarrhea; and, bronchial asthma lurk just behind.
ARI led as cause of morbidity in Anini-y for the 3 year period 1997-1999 (Table H8C) closely followed by Pneumonia. Skin Problem and Influenza were the
regular third and fourth placer. Injuries overtook Bronchitis as fifth and sixth leading causes. The rest of the ten leading causes of morbidity were Parasitism
(seventh), Gastro-Intestinal Disorder (eight), Muscolo-Skeletal Disorder (ninth) and Hypertension (tenth). It is worth to note that Dog Bites had broken into
the scene before the century ended. Diarrhea did not figure on last 2 years. It just lurks in the corner though, with another emerging ailment, Anemia.
A.5 Epidemic Occurrence for the Last Five (5) Years
148
Only Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (Table H9 above) bothered the municipality in epidemic proportion. Last 1998, dengue plagued Antique and Anini-y was
not spared. Seventy-one (71) cases were reported but only 1 died out of it. When it returned the next year the people were already prepared for it and only 3
cases erupted. Consequently, no life succumbed to it. After the 1998 incidence, no epidemics disturbed Anini-y up to today.

"Operation Timbang" reported 571 or 25.46% of the 2, 243 children 0-Under 6 Years Old in 2005 are malnourished. Four barangays with severe cases-
Below Normal-Very Low category of malnutrition are Magdalena -6 cases, Talisayan -2, Casay Viejo -1 and Sagua -1. Top 5 barangays where most of the
malnourished children came are: Talisayan -10.33%; Mabuyong -8.23%; Iba -7.88%; Magdalena -7.71%; and, San Roque -6.65%. Tagaytay has the lowest
malnutrition for pre-schoolers. The Below Normal data actually include 13 boys and 10 girls that are above Normal in weight. Of those weighed 1170 are
boys and 1073 are girls. Those 10 kids with severe cases 5 are boys and 5 are girls.
Compared to the situation obtaining in 1999, the malnutrition rate among pre-schoolers is better now. Of the 2,827 entire pre-schoolers population
weighed by the BNS then, 30.35% of them (858 children, Table H10a) were reported malnourished: first degree -82.58% or one-fifth {25.04%} of the total
preschoolers; second degree -17.02%; and, third degree -0.47%.
Malnutrition data for children 6-14 years old by barangay is not available since 1999. Instead, their nutritional status is monitored through the district school.
In 1999, DepEd nurses reported of the 3,187 school children weighed 1,483 (46.53%) were malnourished: 1st degree –64.60%; 2nd degree –34.12%; and,
3rd degree –1.28%. The 5 schools with highest malnutrition incidence had 56% to 75% level and are located in Anini-y uplands except for Talisayan:
Milagrosa was top at 75%, Igpalge -62.16%, San Ramon -58.49%; Talisayan -56.41% and Nasuli-C -55.56%. By total number of school children weighed,
the following first 5 schools with highest incidence of moderate and severe malnutrition are: Igpalge and Casay ES, and Milagrosa, San Ramon, and
Nasuli-C PS.
These data pointed out the five schools that have the highest incidence of malnourished children {except for Talisayan) were also the ones that had the
highest rate of moderate and severe malnutrition. While the average rate of malnourished children belonging to the 2 nd and 3rd degree brackets was only
16.27, the case of the 5 upland barangays could be a cause of alarm during that time.
151
The Consolidated Nutritional Status Record per Grade Level during the last quarter of SY 2005-06 is presented below. Of the 3,008 elementary school
going age children weighed a quarter after 2005 in the Anini-y School District, 78.05% and 82.70% have normal weight and height respectively.

Table H10b concludes the nutrition status of elementary school going age children is better now than those of children 5 years ago, especially from S.
Qubing MES, Talisayan PS, San Roque-Ezpeleta ES, Anini-y CS, and Iba ES, in that order. High degree of malnutrition is registered in Tagaytay PS at
55%.
The barangay nutrition scholars, BNS who are financed by the barangay but are technically under the supervision of Municipal Nutrition Action Officer in
coordination with catchment midwives regularly undertakes “Operation Timbang” to assess malnutrition among children 0-Under 6 years old. The barangay
health workers (BHW) under the supervision of the midwives facilitate de-worming and giving of micro-nutrients (Vitamin A and ferrous sulfate to prevent
conditions such as night blindness, anemia and goiter) and promote the use of iodized salt, complete breast feeding and proper meaning of food. They also
supplement/ assist in supplemental feeding of 2nd and 3rd degree malnourished children.
The day care workers (DCW) under the MSWDO provide for nutrition education on the right type and amount of food needed by the family and facilitate
supplemental feeding through the day care parents association. The OMA through its Home Management Technician is involved in the nutrition program via
their food production program and giving of seed. On the other hand, the DepEd is conducting regular feeding activities in the classrooms for the school
children. Due to its very limited funds, the Anini-y LGU has provided for medicines for de-worming and allowances to DCW as service providers.
A.7 Health Resources, Facilities and Services
The service organized and delivered by the local health care delivery system greatly influences the level of health. Therefore, it is imperative to analyze the
health resources so that adjustment could be made in the municipal health intervention vis-à-vis the DOH health programs/projects in the light of RA 7160.
Anini-y expects to hit 21,716 residents by the end of year 2010. It is presently served by a rural health physician, 2 nurses, 8 midwives –five regular plus 3
casuals, 1 dentist, a rural health inspector, and 2 casual clerks (refer to Table 11). Their services are augmented by the BNS in each barangay. A “botika sa
barangay” operates in the municipality through its BHWs.
153
But, it operates beyond what is allowed of it that the absence of a pharmacist is noted. The RHU also coordinates with other NGAs as in the DILG-LGU
Clean and Green Program. It maintains and updates regularly statistical data, conducts community survey, and supervises community organizations. It has
technical supervision over the 113 BHW-volunteers and 44 Trained Birth Attendants.
The health and sanitation services in the municipality are carried out through the main Health Center in the Poblacion, 5 Barangay Health Station (BHS) and
a recently opened sub-station at Igpalge. For accessibility and better service, the 23 barangays of the municipality are grouped into 5 catchment areas with
a midwife to man a health center in each catchment. The 5 health centers and its catchment areas are:
1. Lisub B Health Center - Barangays Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeno, Lisub A, Lisub B and Tagaytay;
2. Poblacion Health Center - Barangays Talisayan, Sagua, Poblacion, Butuan, and Nato;
3. Magdalena Health Center - Barangays Salvacion, San Roque, Magdalena and Mabuyong;
4. Casay Health Center - Barangays Casay, Casay Viejo, Iba, Nasuli C, and San Francisco;
5. Igtumarum Health Center - Barangays Igtumarum, and San Ramon, and,
6. Igpalge Health Sub-Station - Barangays Milagrosa and Igpalge.
Table H11 below indicates the services rendered by the various health centers. The whole municipality is covered through regular schedules in Lisub B
(Tuesdays), Magdalena (Wednesday) and Casay (Thursday) Health Stations. The RHP field schedules are timed with market days for Casay and
Magdalena and the upland barangays are serviced wherever is the nearest 3 aforesaid stations, including the main center at the Poblacion during Mondays
and Fridays.
154
Two physicians privately operate on certain days in the municipality –a government retiree and 1 government physician connected with the provincial
hospital but are on-call when they are home during weekends and holidays. The dentist in the rural health center reports once a week –every Tuesday but
the district schools’ dentist is now promoted to the Antique Schools Division Office. However, she is also operating privately during off office days. Likewise,
the functions of a medical technician relative to sputum examinations and other lab tests are on limited basis being done by trained midwives in the
Poblacion and Magdalena Health Centers. Laboratory examinations include Hemoglobin Determination, Pap Smearing, Sputum Examination, Pregnancy
Testing, and Iodine Testing. Special activities include quarterly cataract screening under the Eye Care Program, quarterly conduct of dental services in
coordination with the Antique Dental Society, Operation “Tule” during summer time, and Blood Typing and Bloodletting through PNRC.

A.8 Waste Disposal
The proportion of households with access to sanitary manner of garbage disposal provides knowledge of the environmental living conditions essential for
the formulation of plans and programs to improve general health conditions. Table H12 below signifies that servicing of garbage by trucks/cart is not yet
practiced in Anini-y. Indicated are the usual manners by which the respective barangays and their households in Anini-y dispose of their garbage:
1. Dumping in Individual Pit (not burned) – garbage is thrown in pits whether inside the yard or vacant lots and left to decay.
2. Burning – garbage is dumped in open space or pit and burned.
3. Burying – the garbage is thrown in a pit and covered with soil.
4. Composting – garbage is allowed to decay and the composted materials are collected later for use as soil conditioner or as fertilizer.
5. Feeding to Animals – the garbage is fed to animals.
6. Others – kitchen garbage is disposed in a manner different from those mentioned above (thrown in seashores, vacant lots, rivers, etc.)
The majority of the households (62.11%) burn their garbage while almost a quarter of them (24.89%) practice dumping their gar bage on individual open pit.
Only 80 households, all in Magdalena responded to be feeding their waste to the animals. But, there were still a number of household, in this case 168
households that were indiscriminate in their waste disposal habit, especially in the barangays of Igtumarom, Casay and San Francisco.
It cannot be denied that garbage while emerging will not become a substantial problem of the municipality in 5 years time. The temporary municipal
dumping area at the annex public schools ground in the Marcos Pre-fab school building site back of the Poblacion proper is now closed and a material
waste recovery facility has been established. At the seaside corner of Casay public market, a garbage pile was an eye sore to the community but the LGU
has acted already on the problem. In most barangays, local ordinances are in-place relative to this menace and respective councils are scouting for
appropriate disposal areas. There are no industrial companies present in Anini-y but wastes from fishing activities are beginning to mount in the form of
styrofores and discarded nets.

Nogas Island Fiesta is celebrated after the religious fiesta at the Poblacion. Its aftermath is always plastics, bottles, cellophane wrappers and leftover foods
literally scattered all over the island. Sometimes, materials made of iron like cooking paraphernalia are left to rut in the island.

The Social Reform Agenda of the Ramos Administration drastically improved the use of sanitary disposal facilities. Households using water-sealed toilets
increased from just over 50% in 1990 to 80.90% in 1999. Households with unsanitary type of toilet facilities, like the pit type have gone down to 6.46%
while those without disposal facility at all are reduced to 12.78% (refer to Table H13). By 2005, the percentage of households with sanitary toilet
facilities has gone up to 84.44%. This is probably due to the number of very temporary households are also reduced or its residents have moved out of
the municipality as indicated by the reduced total number of households in the municipality per the primary survey conducted by the Municipal Health Office.
While there is no hospital operating in Anini-y, the waste as a result of treating the patients in the health centers are either burned or buried.

TABLE H14 above shows the inventory of cemeteries or burial grounds in the municipality. The 4 existing cemeteries with a total land area of 1.326
hectares are presently observed to have the capacity to absorb the number of burials at its present rate. For 1999, there wer e 98 deaths in the municipality
for an average of between 8 to 9 deaths in a month. The one owned by the municipal government is still very sparsely occupied and given the correct
management and program could be a revenue booster for the local government unit.
160
B. DETERMINATION OF DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND SCENARIO BUILDING
B.1 Problems and Development Needs
B.1.1 MEDICAL/ HEALTH CARE PROBLEMS
a. Anini-y has high incidence of communicable diseases like Pneumonia, PTB, Parasitism and Diarrhea. Causes can be environmental or work
related. To a certain extent these are very preventable. Over crowding, polluted environment, and sudden changes in atmospheric temperature
contribute to this predicament. There is a need to implement a more vigorous environmental sanitation program to help arrest this situation through
identification of sufficient and potable water sources, especially in the 2 growth centers and the construction of water and toilet facilities.
Dog Bites broke into the 10 leading causes of morbidity last 1999. To arrest this disturbing development, a spirited implementation of local
ordinances against stray animals, especially dogs is needed. Furthermore, there is a need to tie this action with the program on dog immunization
against rabies.
B.1.2 CLIENT-BASED PROBLEMS
a. Prevailing non-communicable diseases are Heart Diseases, Hypertension and Carcinoma. Emerging are diabetes mellitus, liver cirrhosis, peptic
ulcer disease and kidney disease. These diseases are due the individual’s prone-to-disease heredity, too much stress, unhealthy lifestyle, unhealthy
personal disposition (like prone to dispute, carelessness, non-compliance to treatment protocols, and shame) and addiction to tobacco and alcohol.
Furthermore, there is no program that caters for the 50 years old and above. There is a need for the introduction of a community socialization
activity that is both relaxing, invigorating and productive.
b. Dole-out mentality and resistance to change are taking a heavy toll on the living conditions of the residents and the municipal health budget. There
is a need for guidance counseling approach and treatment regimen which implication is fully understood by the client.
c. Accidents and wounds as one of the 10 leading causes of death have adverse implication on safety, peace and order situation in Anini-y. Ergo, its
eco-tourism development and the people’s productive endeavors somehow, will be hampered thus, inducing poverty. Poverty situation (inadequate
161
food intake due to inadequate food supply, no CR and inadequate water supply, delayed consultation, adverse terrain and access to transportation)
aggravates immediate response for medical assistance. Therefore, there is a need for some barangay-based police measures to address this
problem. Furthermore, it is imperative to provide year-round access to the upland areas.
d. The nutrition status has improved during the last 5 years and the locus has shifted from the uplands to the lowlands. But, a necessary focus of effort
should be given by the affected families and the concerned institutions as substantial figure among the pre-schoolers and the grade school children
are still malnourished. Given the necessary focus, about 4/5 and 2/3 of them, respectively belonging to first degree can be easily rehabilitated into
normalcy. Seemingly, there is lack of proper nutrition for pre-schoolers and much more in school-going-age children in the affected barangays.
There is need for immediate barangay-based inventory of malnourished children and an aggressive supplemental feeding program with substantial
financial support from the LGU and community households.
B.1.3 OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS
a. At Program Level, medicine inadequacy for priority health problems is aggravated by lack of funds and lack of awareness on various illnesses and
diseases, unsanitary waste/excreta disposal, poor food preparation and inadequate nutrition education – indicative that households are more into
curative than preventive medicine. There is a need for more stress on community-level health education and preventive health approach.
b. At Systems Level, school nurses cover only the public elementary and secondary schools. No government personnel provide nutrition service
delivery for private secondary school students. The present scheme expects the private secondary schools to provide for their own medical service
personnel. There is also need to monitor their nutritional status for wholistic nutrition program.
On MANPOWER AND FACILITIES, there is a need for an additional barangay health unit to supplement existing units in the catchment areas.
162
- Lack of basic laboratory facility and personnel who will man these devices continue to hound the LGU health response mechanism. Despite
these, present initiatives need to be sustained and coverage areas expanded to address present demand for health care and services.
Dental equipment, weighing scales, nebulizer, and the services of a nurse, dentist, medical technologist and a utility aide are the immediate
need.
- Improve KSA and team building activities for existing and proposed personnel, members of the local health board and community volunteer
workers are needed to minimize unfavorable response against demand for additional output without corresponding incentives/remuneration.
- The emerging trend of non-communicable disease prevalence overtaking on communicable disease incidence among the 10 leading
causes of morbidity and mortality brought about the expensive hospitalization of ordinary residents yet, technology and skills for their
illnesses are available among the incumbent service providers. To address this, the main center needed within the medium term, the
installation of a clinic and 5 additional beds for lying-in patients (1 bed : 2000 population is the normative standard), e.g., maternity and
degenerative disorders.
- Anini-y is always at the receiving end of the existing power system’s power shaving measures. There is a need for a round the clock
alternative power supply for medical equipment/ devices that are run by electricity. Likewise, extreme emergency case requires two-way
radio sets to alert the third level hospitals to make the necessary preparations in advance prior to the arrival of the patients.
- The 3 growth centers in Anini-y have an emerging problem on proper solid waste management. The municipality needed at least 0.65
hectare to accommodate the present volume of trash that is produced in these centers.
Health problems are special problems as life is involve or at stake. This matter requires different approach and priority considerations. Presented below is
the ranking made by the MHO staff on various health/ disease problems using special criteria.

B.2 Manpower Requirement
B.2.1 FOR OUT-PATIENT CARE AND RHUs
The frequency of clinic consultation is assumed at 2.88 times and duration of each visit or consultation is about 15 minutes, more or less, depending on the
type of disease. However, recording is cumbersome that only 5915 as the total number of consultations in one year is available. The number of man-hours
required in Anini-y is = (number of cases x frequency of visit x duration in min.) / 60 min/hr or approximately 1479 man-hours. Since the physician’s
productive time for out-patient treatment is about 4 hours and there are 272 working days in a year, the manpower requirement or need for Anini-y is
2.01 MHOs. The Standards in RHU Personnel Population require 1 MHO, 1 PHN, 1 RSI per 20,000 populations and 1 RHM per 5,000 populations but local
geography demands a special configuration of barangay health clusters and corresponding personnel assignments.
167
C.1 Goal 1. To establish a sustainable and adequate health delivery system for and with the people in the
municipality.
C.1.1 OBJECTIVES: To be able to:
a. Upgrade the quality of existing health facilities and add where they are presently needed, by the EO 2007.
b. Strengthen the two-way referral system between levels of health care delivery system.
c. Augment manpower compliment of the unit with the right work habits, by the EO 2010.
d. Expand coverage and sustain the operational performance of the unit on health services delivery by 2006-15.
e. Monitor health status of the population through early detection and possible prevention and, diagnosis and treatment by
2006-15.
C.2 Goal 2. To enhance the quality of health condition of the people in the communities.
C.2.1 OBJECTIVES: To be able to:
a. To reduce the incidence of communicable and non-communicable disease annually by 20% by 2006-15.
b. To improve the nutritional status of malnourished children with ages 0-14 from 70 to 90%, by 2006-15.
c. To improve the general environmental sanitation of the communities to satisfactory level, by EO 2006.
168
1. The communities have the primary responsibility of maintaining the quality of their health and safety. The LGU and other principal actors
should promote active client participation in the programs/ projects planning, implementation and evaluation by introducing innovative
approaches on community mobilization –like barangay-focused “program-beneficiary-resource matching” and, dole-out reduction.
2. The LGU in implementing comprehensive and integrated health services should focus on preventive health by insuring basic environmental
sanitation infrastructures are provided, and applicable sanitation laws and sanitation-related activities are strictly enforced.
3. The LGU should actively seek the improvement of its existing facilities and enhancement of health program management by capability and
team building for health service board, providers and clients, MIS modernization, augmenting present health workforce when additional
budget warrant and, by accessing both from within and outside of the communities.
4. Appropriate curative services should be extended to population who are already suffering from health inadequacies and deficiencies by fully
implementing the restructured rural health care delivery system and the establishment of its hierarchical levels with corresponding effective
two-way referral system by ensuring year round access to health care services.
5. The LGU should have full administrative control over the implementation of health services and should establish strengthened coordination,
networking and partnership with other health districts, other LGUs and resource agencies concerned with the provision of health services

SOCIAL WELFARE
“LIFE is becoming more difficult to live by

and the difficult role of leader protector- welfare provider has shifted from the Godfather to the Local Government”
181
A. PROFILE AND ANALYSIS OF EXISTING SITUATION
A.1 Social Welfare Organizations/ Instrumentalities and Location
Table 1 below shows the 7 various organizations that act as government instrumentalities at the barangay level. These groups act as participants and
stakeholders to the respective programs and projects and activities the government is extending to various sector of the locality.
The Day Care Parents Association (DCPA) of the family heads of member-children facilitates the implementation of day care services and supplemental
feeding program for their pre-school wards. The Senior Citizens Association (SCA) or those in their twilight years participates as stakeholder to the senior
citizens care program of the government. The women have also their Barangay Women’s Association (BWA) to cater for gender issues affecting their
sector.
Recently, the Barangay Protection for Welfare of Children Program was launch to respond to children’s right issues and participating sectors were organized
into a council and called as Barangay Children Protection and Welfare Council or BCPC. Beneficiaries were organized also into SEA-Kaunlaran
Associations (SEA-K) to facilitate funding assistance for self-employment endeavors and group economic actions. The out-of-school youth organized
around Pag-asa Youth Movement through their associations (PYA) that facilitates reaching out into their sector. Even the disabled have organized
themselves into a barangay level organization, the Association of Persons with Disabilities or APWD to make their grievances more felt by the society.
Being the most recent among the government programs for the poor, the BCPC is the most prevalent instrumentality having 274 adherents with established
groups in 23 barangays. Each BCPC has membership of 12 family heads and women except Tagaytay having 10 family heads only composing this council.
On the other hand, the SCA is the most prolific group among MSWDO-assisted groups having established organizations in all barangays with 737 members
in the whole municipality, notwithstanding Casay Viejo’s non-reported clientele or members. Casay elderly appears the most sociable having the most
members followed by Magdalena. It is reported, Magdalena and Igtumarom elderly have not received any assistance from among the services surveyed.

For the year 2000, Tagaytay has serviced only 1 clientele, while 5 others in Igpalge received assistance and, San Roque and Milagrosa served 3 clienteles
each. San Francisco, San Roque and Sagua have no Day Care Parents Association. Thus, the DCPAs operate only in 20 barangays benefiting 646 children
most of whom came from Mabuyong- 52; Talisayan and Magdalena- 50 each; Iba, Nasuli C and Salvacion –46 each and, Bayo Grande- 35.
The PYA exists only in Bayo Grande, Butuan and Casay with a total membership of 55. The SEA-Kaunlaran Associations have accessed financial
assistance for their chapters in Bayo Pequeño, Butuan, Nato, Poblacion, and Talisayan benefiting 150 women-members. Lisub A’s group of 25 women is
the only women’s association that was not able to accessed SEA-K funds but some of them received AICS assistance. One hundred sixty-four persons with
disabilities have raised their voices in the barangays of Bayo Grande, Butuan, Casay, Casay Viejo, Iba, Lisub A, Lisub B, Magdalena, San Roque, Tagaytay
and Talisayan by forming an association to represent their sector. Of these groups, the PWDs of Casay Viejo, Lisub B and Talisayan for the year 2000 have
not received services enumerated at
186
Table SW1. In terms of the number of social welfare organizations, Butuan is found to have the most number with 7 organized groups. Sagua and San
Francisco have the least number with only the senior citizens’ groups and the recently launched BCPC organized. However, the number of children
beneficiaries is not reported.
A.2 Number of Social Workers and Type of Services and Facilities
The RA 7160 effectively devolved the functions of the DSWD to the local government. In this regard, the three-man office of the local social welfare services
agency is provided ample support by 20 barangay-based volunteer day care workers who are receiving a minimal allowance from the local government.
Each of them covers a certain barangay and coordinates the implementation of various social welfare programs under the supervision of the MSWDO. All of
them are trained to implement all the programs.
Sagua, San Francisco and San Roque have no day care workers. The services provided to their organized groups are facilitated through the MSWDO.
Previously, San Francisco has a volunteer worker but left the service due to political intervention. Volunteerism in most cases is good only for short duration.
Table 1 also indicates the various services offered by the respective day care workers. It shows that all barangays except Igpalge, Sagua and San Roque
have availed of Family Life Education and Counseling Services benefiting 728 people. Acceptance of Family Planning practices is being motivated in the
same barangays by referring 693 clienteles to the health centers or service point officers.
From among the aforementioned 20 barangays with day care parents associations, only 12 barangays are into supplemental feeding program by the end of
2000. This is conducted though, irregularly. It is observed that there is a need to expand its implementation by the concerned barangay LGUs this is
however, subject to need-resource-participation matching at their level. All barangays have gained access to medical care assistance program although
Magdalena is supporting very well their elderly as no assistance was sought by the barangays for its senior citizens. For other senior care services, Bayo
Pequeño, Igtumarom, Magdalena and Salvacion reported no assistance was extended in this regard.

187
The Talisayan fire victims are being resettled in a lot donated by the provincial government. Twenty-five of the affected families were provided with core
shelter housing assistance at Lisub B. For 2000, only a limited number of families from all barangays except Igpalge and Igtumarom have availed of AICS
or assistance to individual in crisis situation. It is usually the families of senior citizens that benefit from this type of dole-out.
In terms of facilities, the activities of the senior citizens associations utilize their respective barangay halls or the barangay health station in places where the
municipal health office has its facility. The association meets once a month attended by barangay representative. Thereafter, the latter is responsible to
echo concerns/ issues to its members of coverage. Lately, the meeting was conducted irregularly because of the discontinuance of the giving of allowances
to the municipal chairman/ president wherein transportation expenses of the participants is taken from the said amount.
Twenty barangays have established their daycare center. However, structural conditions of these centers are not all permanent. All of them hold their social
welfare related activities in these facilities. The existing barangay health stations in the catchment centers and the newly opened sub-center doubles as
medical health center for beneficiaries of several social welfare programs.
As mentioned in the foregoing discussions, it is observed social welfare organizations last while free supplies lasts and that their activities are reactionary in
character. Primarily, this is because the beneficiaries are at the survival level. Secondly, field workers are in voluntary basis. Lastly, local government social
welfare fund allocation is limited as the paramount focus at every decision level is the establishment of infrastructures.
A.3 DSWD Clientele System
The clientele system refers to a system of categorizing the recipients of the service of the DSWD. A client is categorized as follows: a) Families in especially
difficult circumstances (EDC); b) Communities in especially difficult circumstances; c) Women in especially difficult circumstances; d) Children and Youth in
especially difficult circumstances; e) Senior Citizen; f) Persons with disabilities; and, g) Victims of natural and man-made disaster.

Source: Social Reform Agenda 2nd Semester ’97 Primary Survey/ MSWDO
Table SW2 shows 661 (19.66% of the 1995 total household of 3,363) is being served by MSWDO as cases of families in especially difficult circumstances
(EDC). These cases can be found in all barangays. Primarily, these families find difficulty in meeting their minimum basic needs due to poverty. A lot others
are waiting to be served as these cases represent only 33.55% of the total families that are in dire need. The Social Reform Agenda survey of 1997
indicated there are 1970 families in all barangays of Anini-y that have income below poverty threshold level. The same survey reported 722 cases of
homelessness and having very temporary houses that contributed to their difficult situation. Other causes are cases of death of spouse or abandonment or
separation in 87 families, violence within the family in 77 households, negligence of parental responsibilities in 75 families, manmade or natural disasters in
58 households excluding the 93 Talisayan fire victims, and uncontrolled child bearing in 569 families.
190
Furthermore, the MSWDO is servicing 43.48% or 10 barangays out of 23 barangays in the municipality as communities in especially difficult circumstances.
If DSWD guideline is to be followed, Anini-y shall have 15 communities in EDCs. Such coverage limitation is due to limited budget available for their relief.
Other communities that must be serviced are Milagrosa, Nato, San Ramon, San Roque, and Tagaytay. These are the barangays where 50% or more of
their population is unable to meet their minimum basic needs having incomes below the subsistence threshold level. There are 15 communities with
unresolved survival, security and enabling needs. Among them Igpalge, Magdalena, Milagrosa, Nasuli C, and San Ramon should be programmed for more
potable water supplies. Furthermore, projects on sanitary toilet facilities should be focused on Casay Viejo, Igpalge, Milagrosa, Nasuli C, Nato, San Ramon,
and San Roque. Iba and Talisayan are two better off communities that may be included under the sanitary waste disposal program. All aforesaid
communities have averages that are above national average of 15% of the households with potable water and 23% of the households with sanitary toilets.
Some of these barangays do not have complete elementary schools (see Education sub-sector for discussions).
Of the 417 persons reported to have disabilities, the MSWDO serviced 222 of them for 53.24% coverage. Meanwhile, it was projected that by end of 2000
there will be more or less 6,036 women 15 years old and above and 1,824 senior citizens that are 60 years old and above. In this regard, the MSWDO last
2000 serviced only 4.39 % of the 265 women considered in especially difficult circumstances and 40.46 % or 738 elders.
Moreover, the SRA survey reported there were 216 pregnant and lactating women that lacked full iron supplementation, 129 pregnant women without anti-
tetanus vaccine, and 58 deliveries that were not assisted by any health personnel or trained hilots. It has also serviced 600 children and youth that are
projected by the end of 1999 to be 8,892 children 0-18 years old and 5,229 youth 19-35 years old. This is equivalent to only 4.25 % of the children and
youth population. The same survey result reported 185 infants not fully immunized and 202 children with more than 1 diarrhea episode. Moreover, the SRA
survey reported there were 216 pregnant and lactating women that lacked full iron supplementation, 129 pregnant women without anti-tetanus vaccine, and
58 deliveries that were not assisted by any health personnel or trained ‘hilots’.
191
It has also serviced 600 children and youth that are projected by the end of 1999 to be 8,892 children 0-18 years old and 5,229 youth 19-35 years old. This
is equivalent to only 4.25 % of the children and youth population. The same survey result reported 185 infants not fully immunized and 202 children with
more than 1 diarrhea episode.
Education-wise, it pointed out 900 children 3-5 years old not attending daycare or prep classes, 457 children 6-12 years old not enrolled in elementary
grades, and 682 children 13-16 years old not in high school. Furthermore, 180 children were involved in hazardous occupation and 75 children were left
unattended. There is no available data for youth in especially difficult circumstance.
A.4 On-going Programs/ Projects Concerning Social Welfare
Table SW3 below enumerates various programs and projects embarked by the municipality even though operations are in a tight purse string. Not at all
affected by this predicament is the pre-marriage counseling program for the young and the “young once” who have decided to tie the knot.
Among the LGU social welfare projects, the Assistance to Individual in Crisis Situation is the most sought after project as it involved the granting of financial
assistance on families or individuals in immediate need of cash for being very ill or hospitalized. Fund allocation for this dole-out is the first to be exhausted
and the officials have to seek counterpart funds from the province. This project has alleviated the emergency needs of several family heads, distressed
women, but most beneficiaries are the senior citizens and the disabled from 21 barangays. Igpalge and Igtumarom folks were not able to avail of the said
services because they were not organized. The MSWDO advocated the need for them to be part of such privilege. Recent information reveals they organize
among themselves. Another project that is very responsive but is expensive if done regularly is the daycare program and supplemental feeding program.
Malnutrition is the number one cause of mortality and morbidity in the municipality that many barangays endeavored to put up their own daycare center no
matter how temporary just to avail of the program. Parents helped each other in areas were there are no daycare workers. It is during the parents meeting
that they are lectured on responsible parenthood and family planning.
192
Municipal social welfare budget though goes more on the mobility allowances or honorarium of the 20 barangay-volunteers. Five groups of daycare parents
association and women’s group have availed of special livelihood assistance for being actively involved in community development affairs. They have
likewise undergone basic skills training relative to their livelihood project. But, there is a need for a follow up on their activities. It was observed that these
groups’ activities started to die down after loans were extended to them.
For 1999, funds allocated for children and youth assistance and educational assistance were reprogrammed to augment the miniscule emergency
assistance budget. This allocation went to the 93 Talisayan fire victims to assist them in starting a new lease of life with their respective families. However,
they were found to be taking their time on constructing their core shelter housing. There is also a need to review the grantees of the core shelter program
and may be a new priority listing is prepared in consultation with the beneficiaries, barangay and municipal officials.

A.5 Social Reform Agenda (SRA) Convergence Areas
Former President Fidel V. Ramos has chosen Antique as one of the nineteen (19) provinces and other priority geographical areas to be the Convergence
Areas for the SRA Convergence Policy. The Comprehensive and Integrated Delivery of Social Services (CIDSS) became one of the flagship programs
identified for convergence. In Anini-y, the 3 barangays of Butuan, Nato and Talisayan were chosen as initial CIDSS areas of the municipality. Lisub B, Bayo
Grande and Bayo Pequeño are earmarked as expansion barangays.
194
Outside of the CIDSS convergence areas are the five agrarian reform communities of Casay, Casay Viejo, Iba, Nasuli C, and San Francisco. These
barangays availed of other assistance under the ARC program. The rest of the barangays in the municipality are non-CIDSS barangays. The following
projects were implemented with their corresponding budget:
A.6 Source of Funding/ Manpower Requirements
The social welfare and development needs of the municipality and its projected population of 20,791 by the end of year 2000 is under the direct supervision
of the MSWD Officer assisted by a municipal-based day care worker and a casual clerk-typist. For the year 1999 the Sangguniang Bayan of Anini-y
allocated a total budget of Php 300,004.00 under the General Fund and a total amount of Php 219,000.00 under the 20% Developm ent Fund of the Internal
Revenue Allotment. Respectively this is equivalent to 2.18% and 7.96% respectively, of the local funds. These are not enough to service the basic needs of
the residents. If all the actual needs of the indigents are considered and responded adequately, the whole municipal budget for the year will not suffice and
all the other sector’s development needs will be pending, much less the rest of the municipal employees will not receive any remuneration for that year.
The MSWDO sorely lacks the manpower, mobility, communication facilities and advance technology to implement a people-led but government- assisted
welfare program, notwithstanding the commitment of the local volunteers and barangay-based support.
195
B.1 Existing Problems and Development Needs
B.1.1 DAY CARE
a. In 1999, 646 children attended Daycare Program of the barangays in Anini-y (34.18% coverage) out of more or less, 1890 children of age 03-06
years old. These are from Age Group 01-04 children (projected at 1778) and Age Group 05-09 children (projected at 2506) expected to be admitted
in Day Care. The LGU needs to expand daycare activities in all concerned barangays. Day care and supplemental feeding programs are very
responsive but are expensive, if done regularly. Malnutrition is number one killer and harbinger of morbidity in Anini-y yet supplemental feeding for
the children is an on and off activity due to high program maintenance cost. Only 12 centers were into it irregularly in 1999.
b. Fund is just half the problem in putting up a barangay daycare center. Officials and parents cooperate just to avail of the program. The other half is
political intervention in the selection of daycare workers. Sagua, San Francisco and San Roque need such a selection process for volunteer worker
that minimizes or put politics at bay to mobilize the parents of children and spur them to organize and start building their respective centers. As of
this writing, 9 DCCs in Poblacion, Talisayan, Lisub A, Bayo Pequeño, Casay, Nasuli C, Butuan, Nato and Lisub B need center improvement works
though they are already utilized by their barangays. Bayo Grande, Sitio Pait (Magdalena) and San Francisco daycare structures are unused, as
major completion works are needed. About 8 others need to be rebuilt of concrete materials (Magdalena, Mabuyong, San Roque, Iba, Casay Viejo,
Milagrosa, Salvacion, and San Ramon) subject to need-resource-participation matching at their level and in accordance to the requirements set by
DSWD. The other 3 barangays have volunteer day care workers but do not have day care centers and sorely needed a lot on which to construct this
facility (Igpalge, Igtumarom, Tagaytay).
196
B.1.2 SENIOR CARE CITIZEN CARE CENTER
RA 7876 mandates Senior Citizens Center establishment in all municipalities and appropriating funds therefor through the DSWD and in collaboration with
the LGU concerned. Its implementing rules and regulations refers not just the establishment of the structure but also the recreational, educational, health
and social programs and other facilities designed for the full employment and benefit of the senior citizens in the municipality. To realize the construction of
this center and the availment of the rest of the benefits that comes with it, the elders’ past initiatives need a follow through from the LGU.
At EO 1999, 1824 senior citizens that are 60 years old and above was projected for Anini-y. For the said year, MSWDO assisted 738 elders for a 40.46%
municipal coverage. Their 23 barangay-SCAs had 737 total membership excluding unreported Casay Viejo’s associate roll. Data showed only elder-
members were extended services at municipal level and service is almost nil in some barangays. There is a need for membership expansion, in this regard.
This sub-sector of population utilizes barangay halls or barangay health centers when their organizations meet. The officers were then having regular
monthly meeting as this activity served as their socialization and the MSWDO’s service entry point. However, the discontinuance of their municipal chair’s
allowance that was used to refund the participants’ transportation expenses during their municipal meeting disrupted their frequent meetings and severely
affected their other activities. There is a need to reconsider the move, as it is to the interest of this sector that their chairperson’s allowance be restored.
B.1.3 FUNDING AND RESOURCES
The annual budget for the whole social welfare needs is not enough to service even the basic needs of the residents. Dole-out funds are the first to be
exhausted. Most of the 1999 municipal social welfare and development budget (Php 300,004 or 2.18% of the General Fund; Php 219,000 or 7.96% of the
20% IRA Development Fund) went to the salary of the employees and more on the mobility allowance of the 20-barangay volunteers. Its children and youth
assistance and educational assistance budget component were even lumped with the emergency assistance for the Talisayan Fire victims.
197
The LGU fund allocation for social welfare is limited as it is biased more on the establishment of infrastructures. There is a need to segregate the social
funds into welfare funds and development funds. The welfare funds may form the local chief executive social funds as part of the general fund, and the
development fund treated as investment fund for people’s empowerment –or else we end up breeding mendicant citizenry in our midst.
The MSWDO sorely lacks the manpower, mobility, communication facilities and advance technology to implement a people-led but government-assisted
welfare program, notwithstanding the commitment of the local volunteers and barangay-based support. The problem is systemic and there is a need to build
on their capacity and heighten their ability to provide empowering services to its clientele.
B.1.4 OTHER FACILITIES AND SERVICES
Anini-y’s was excluded from DSWD’s Early Child Development Program when fire victim families-beneficiaries for Lisub B resettlement project took time on
constructing their core shelter housing, which early completion was the pre-condition set by the agency. To avoid repeating this mistake, there is a need to
review the barangay and/ or beneficiary selection and awarding process for all developmental programs and project, so that only the deserving and the
achieving should be given priority.
The primary reason for big gap of number of beneficiaries actually served and the number of families and individuals that need immediate assistance is
limited funds. However, there is need to optimize the use of other internal community resources before looking to outside grants. We will not solve most of
our problems by spending more or spending less, or creating new bureaucracies but by correcting “how we do our thing” and reinvent for effectiveness.
a. Of the 93 Talisayan fire victim households, only 25 benefited from the core shelter project and 30 resettled on its own in Hurao-hurao for 59.14%
coverage. Another 58 households-victims of man-made/ natural disasters and 722 cases more of homelessness/having temporary houses
contributing to their difficult situation were reported. We need to monitor their situation for any possible assistance.
198
b. The 1997 SRA data identified 10 communities with unresolved survival, security and enabling needs. All 10 barangays that have averages above
the national average of 15% of households with potable water and 23% of households with sanitary toilets
- need more potable water supplies for Igpalge, Magdalena, Milagrosa, Nasuli C, and San Ramon;
- additional sanitary toilet facilities be focused on Casay Viejo, Igpalge, Milagrosa, Nasuli C, Nato, San Ramon, and San Roque;
- sanitary waste disposal program for two better off communities of Iba and Talisayan; and,
- some of these barangays do not have complete elementary schools (see Education sub-sector for discussions)
c. In 1999, DSWD prescribed 15 Anini-y communities in especially difficult circumstances but the LGU covered only 43.48% (10 out of 23 barangays)
of EDC communities. Same data source established there were 1970 out of 3363 families (58.58%) in the whole municipality that have income
below poverty threshold level but the municipality served only about one-fifth out of 33.55% of the 3363 EDC families. Furthermore, not all of the
communities with 50% or more of their population (Milagrosa, Nato, San Ramon, San Roque, Tagaytay) unable to meet their minimum basic needs
for having income below the subsistence threshold level) were covered due to mobility limitations. In this regard, there is a need to immediately
launch tried and tested income-generating projects in these barangays that are acceptable to the beneficiaries, have endemic and available raw
materials in the area, and using mature technology.
d. Of the projected 6,036 women 15 years old and above by EO1999, 265 of them were considered in EDCs and only 4.39% of these women wer e
served during the year. Poverty-induced situations identified during the 1997 SRA survey are the uncontrolled child-bearing in 569 families and 58
deliveries that were not assisted by any health personnel or trained “hilots”. Other cases are 216 pregnant and lactating women that lacked full iron
supplementation, 129 pregnant women without anti-tetanus vaccine, cases of death of spouse or abandonment or separation in 87 families, and
violence within the family in 77 households. Since these matters remained not substantially addressed, there is a need to conduct a check on these
women and establish some kind of monitoring of their present status for priority consideration in applicable programs.
199
e. Only 600 children & youth (4.25%) population were served during the year. Those children 3-5 years old not attending daycare or prep classes and
children 6-12 years old not enrolled in elementary grades or high school are increasing in numbers. Furthermore, only Bayo Grande, Butuan and
Casay have Pag-asa Youth Association with 55 total memberships. While every barangays have organized Council for Protection and Welfare of
Children, participation of family heads and women are limited to 12 only. Such cannot respond to cases of negligence of parental responsibilities, of
infants not fully immunized or left unattended, children with more than 1 diarrhea episode or with hazardous occupation. Anini-y is projected to have
more or less, 8892 children 0-18 years old and 5,229 youth 19-35 years by EO 1999. To make them effective, there is a need to train them on
advocacy for children rights, for the establishment of early childhood development resource center and a strong lobby for the immediate inclusion of
Anini-y to the Early Child Development Program or the CPC-V Program and providing equity funds for it.
f. For 1999, coverage is only 53.24% of persons with disabilities. Eleven barangays organized their PWDs with 164 members. It is not established
who among and what are these persons’ service requirements since a handicap does not necessarily mean a person is completely disabled. As in
Item E, there is a need to map out their locations and determine the services applicable for them for an effective response.
g. There is a need to reach out to more clientele of the various services offered through Family Life Education and Counseling Services and
strengthening our barangay service points for effective Acceptance of Family Planning motivation.
h. There is a need for a more innovative and liberating method of extending medical care assistance and AICS than what is presently practiced.
B.1.5 TRAINING
It is observed that social welfare organizations last while free supplies lasts. Their activities are reactionary in character as most if not all, beneficiaries are at
the survival level and the field workers are in voluntary basis. After Bayo Pequeño, Butuan, Nato, Poblacion, and Talisayan accessed SEA–K fund for their
daycare parents and women’s income-generating project and the basic skills training for the said project, their group activities started to die down.
200
What were once active groups in community development affairs is nowhere heard now after loans were extended to them. In this regard, there is a need
for more appropriate technical training for implementers, volunteers and program participants.
B.2 Projection of Future Needs
Using the participation rate method, the projected clientele for 1999 is 2,585 or computed as equal to 12,012 residents projected to be below poverty line
multiplied by the current MSWDO clientele of 2,383 divided by the current population below poverty line which is 11,074. This brings an annual increase of
202 people to contend with depending on the rate of increase of the population.
201

families, by the EO2005.
3. To catalyze income producing ventures for 300 poor families of the community, by the EO2005.
202
D.1 Policy Recommendations
D.1.1 PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
- Service delivery should be liberating -its managers providing the direction and freeing the creativity of the community to help themselves.
D.1.2 FUNDING AND RESOURCES
- The local government of Anini-y should use innovative, imaginative and catalytic approaches in the implementation of its social welfare and
development program and projects by investing more on people empowerment. Dole-out should be discouraged at the extent most possible
by using the “food/ cash for work” approach for grant assistance. It should be inculcated to the residents that there is no “free ride” in
development endeavors.
- The MSWDO staff should be re-directed towards a people-led but government-assisted welfare program by introducing them to a shift in
development paradigm and good planning, and providing them with appropriate office equipment for up-to-date management information
system, mobility support, and communication facilities.
D.1.3 FACILITIES AND SERVICES
- Services of barangay daycare volunteers receiving mobility allowances should be enhanced through institutionalization of performance
contracts or similar means geared towards coverage expansion by providing them adequate supervision from the MSWDO.
203
- The private secondary schools’ nutrition service delivery should jointly be covered by school nurses and MSWDO by a special agreement
between the municipal government and the Department of Education since no government personnel is assigned to provide for this gap.
- Efforts for accessing very much needed facilities like daycare, senior care, and early child development centers and other beneficial parts of
the package should be focused and concerted by instituting a strong lobby backed-up with equity funds and barangay active support.
- The local administration should tap the services of well-meaning partners from the civil society and with good track records in the
implementation of people empowerment activities by making them handle the conscientization, organizing and income-generating projects.
D.1.4 AREA AND BENEFICIARY SELECTION
- Selection process should consider more the need-program-resource-participation matching technique at the field level and less on political
considerations to make the poverty response sustainable, in accord with DSWD requirements and in close consultation with the
beneficiaries.
- Persons on especially difficult circumstances among many qualified beneficiaries should be given priority in the target setting.
D.2 Strategies
1. Partnership Building
2. Networking and Resource Accessing
3. Local Resource and Community Mobilization
4. Community-based Information System
5. Responsibility-focused Process Documentation

D. DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND FUTURE SCENARIOS
B.1 Existing Problems and Development Needs
B.1.1 DAY CARE
b. In 1999, 646 children attended Daycare Program of the barangays in Anini-y (about 34.18% municipal coverage) out of more or less, 1890 children
of age 03-06 years old. These are from AGE GROUP 01-04 children (projected at 1778) and AGE GROUP 05-09 children (projected at 2506)
expected to be admitted in Day Care. The LGU needs to expand daycare activities in all concerned barangays. Day care and supplemental feeding
programs are very responsive but are expensive, if done regularly.
211
Malnutrition is number one killer and harbinger of morbidity in Anini-y yet supplemental feeding for the children is an on and off activity due to high
program maintenance cost. Only 12 centers were into it irregularly in 1999.
c. Fund is just half the problem in putting up a barangay daycare center. Officials and parents cooperate just to avail of the program. The other half is
political intervention in the selection of daycare workers. Sagua, San Francisco and San Roque need such a selection process for volunteer worker
that minimizes or put politics at bay to mobilize the parents of children and spur them to organize and start building their respective centers. As of
this writing, 9 DCCs in Poblacion, Talisayan, Lisub A, Bayo Pequeño, Casay, Nasuli C, Butuan, Nato and Lisub B need center improvement works
though they are already utilized by their barangays. Bayo Grande, Sitio Pait (Magdalena) and San Francisco daycare structures are unused, as
major completion works are needed. About 8 others need to be rebuilt of concrete materials (Magdalena, Mabuyong, San Roque, Iba, Casay Viejo,
Milagrosa, Salvacion, and San Ramon) subject to need-resource-participation matching at their level and in accordance to the requirements set by
DSWD (refer to Annex ___). The other 3 barangays have volunteer day care workers but do not have day care centers and sorely needed a lot on
which to construct this facility (Igpalge, Igtumarom, Tagaytay).
B.1.2 SENIOR CARE CITIZEN CARE CENTER
RA 7876 mandates Senior Citizens Center establishment in all municipalities and appropriating funds therefor through the DSWD and in collaboration with
the LGU concerned. Its implementing rules and regulations (see Annex 2) refers not just the establishment of the structure but also the recreational,
educational, health and social programs and other facilities designed for the full employment and benefit of the senior citizens in the municipality. To realize
the construction of this center and the availment of the rest of the benefits that comes with it, the elders’ past initiatives need a follow through from the LGU.
212
At EO1999, 1824 senior citizens that are 60 years old and above was projected for Anini-y. For the said year, MSWDO assisted 738 elders for a 40.46%
municipal coverage. Their 23 barangay-SCAs had 737 total membership, excluding unreported Casay Viejo’s associate roll. Data showed only elder-
members were extended services at municipal level and service is almost nil in some barangays. There is a need for membership expansion, in this regard.
This sub-sector of population utilizes barangay halls or barangay health centers when their organizations meet. The officers were then having regular
monthly meeting as this activity served as their socialization and the MSWDO’s service entry point. However, the discontinuance of their municipal chair’s
allowance that was used to refund the participants’ transportation expenses during their municipal meeting disrupted their frequent meetings and severely
affected their other activities. There is a need to reconsider the move, as it is to the interest of this sector that their chairperson’s allowance be restored.
B.1.3 FUNDING AND RESOURCES
The annual budget for the whole social welfare and development needs is not enough to service even the basic needs of the residents. Dole-out funds are
the first to be exhausted. Most of the 1999 municipal social welfare and development budget (Php 300,004 or 2.18% of the General Fund; Php 219,000 or
7.96% of the 20% IRA Development Fund) went to the salary of the employees and more on the mobility allowance of the 20-barangay volunteers. Its
children and youth assistance and educational assistance budget component were even lumped with the emergency assistance for the Talisayan Fire
victims. The LGU fund allocation for social welfare is limited as it is biased more on the establishment of infrastructures. There is a need to segregate the
social funds into welfare funds and development funds. The welfare funds may form the local chief executive social funds as part of the general fund, and
the development fund treated as investment fund for people’s empowerment –or else we end up breeding mendicant citizenry in our midst.
The MSWDO sorely lacks the manpower, mobility, communication facilities and advance technology to implement a people-led but government-assisted
welfare program, notwithstanding the commitment of the local volunteers and barangay-based support. The problem is systemic and there is a need to build
on their capacity and heighten their ability to provide empowering services to its clientele.
213
B.1.4 OTHER FACILITIES AND SERVICES
Anini-y’s was excluded from DSWD’s Early Child Development Program when fire victim families-beneficiaries for Lisub B resettlement project took time on
constructing their core shelter housing, which early completion was the pre-condition set by the agency. To avoid repeating this mistake, there is a need to
review the barangay and/ or beneficiary selection and awarding process for all developmental programs and project, so that only the deserving and the
achieving should be given priority.
The primary reason for big gap of number of beneficiaries actually served and the number of families and individuals that need immediate assistance is
limited funds. However, there is need to optimize the use of other internal community resources before looking to outside grants. We will not solve most of
our problems by spending more or spending less, or creating new bureaucracies but by correcting “how we do our thing” and reinvent for effectiveness.
i. Of the 93 Talisayan fire victim households, only 25 benefited from the core shelter project and 30 resettled on its own in Hurao-hurao for 59.14%
coverage. Another 58 households-victims of man-made/ natural disasters and 722 cases more of homelessness/having temporary houses
contributing to their difficult situation were reported. We need to monitor their situation for any possible assistance.
j. The 1997 SRA data identified 10 communities with unresolved survival, security and enabling needs. All 10 barangays that have averages above
the national average of 15% of households with potable water and 23% of households with sanitary toilets
- need more potable water supplies for Igpalge, Magdalena, Milagrosa, Nasuli C, and San Ramon;
- additional sanitary toilet facilities be focused on Casay Viejo, Igpalge, Milagrosa, Nasuli C, Nato, San Ramon, and San Roque;
- sanitary waste disposal program for two better off communities of Iba and Talisayan; and,
- some of these barangays do not have complete elementary schools (see Education sub-sector for discussions)
214
k. In 1999, DSWD prescribed 15 Anini-y communities in especially difficult circumstances but the LGU covered only 43.48% (10 out of 23 barangays)
of EDC communities. Same data source established there were 1970 out of 3363 families (58.58%) in the whole municipality that have income
below poverty threshold level but the municipality served only about one-fifth out of 33.55% of the 3363 EDC families. Furthermore, not all of the
communities with 50% or more of their population (Milagrosa, Nato, San Ramon, San Roque, Tagaytay) unable to meet their minimum basic needs
for having income below the subsistence threshold level) were covered due to mobility limitations. In this regard, there is a need to immediately
launch tried and tested income-generating projects in these barangays that are acceptable to the beneficiaries, have endemic and available raw
materials in the area, and using mature technology.
l. Of the projected 6,036 women 15 years old and above by EO1999, 265 of them were considered in EDCs and only 4.39% of these wo men were
served during the year. Poverty-induced situations identified during the 1997 SRA survey are the uncontrolled child-bearing in 569 families and 58
deliveries that were not assisted by any health personnel or trained “hilots”. Other cases are 216 pregnant and lactating women that lacked full iron
supplementation, 129 pregnant women without anti-tetanus vaccine, cases of death of spouse or abandonment or separation in 87 families, and
violence within the family in 77 households. Since these matters remained not substantially addressed, there is a need to conduct a check on these
women and establish some kind of monitoring of their present status for priority consideration in applicable programs.
m. More or less, 8892 children 0-18 years old and 5,229 youth 19-35 years are projected for Anini-y by EO1999. Only 600 children & youth (4.25%)
population were served during the year. Those children 3-5 years old not attending daycare or prep classes and children 6-12 years old not enrolled
in elementary grades or high school are increasing in numbers. Furthermore, only Bayo Grande, Butuan and Casay have Pag-asa Youth
Association with 55 total membership. While every barangays have organized Council for Protection and Welfare of Children, participation of family
heads and
215
n. Women are limited to 12 only. Such cannot respond to cases of negligence of parental responsibilities, of infants not fully immunized or left
unattended, children with more than 1 diarrhea episode or with hazardous occupation. To make them effective, there is a need to train them on
advocacy for children rights. There is a need for the establishment of early childhood development resource center. There is also a need for a
strong lobby for the immediate inclusion of Anini-y to the Early Child Development Program or the CPC-V Program and providing equity funds for it.
o. For 1999, the LGU served 222 of the 417 persons with disabilities for 53.24% coverage. Eleven barangays organized their PWDs with 164
members. It is not established who among and what are these persons service requirements since a handicap does not necessarily mean the
person is completely disabled. Like in ITEM E, there is a need to map out their locations and determine the services applicable for them for an
effective response.
p. There is a need to reach out to more clientele of the various services offered through Family Life Education and Counseling Services and
strengthening our barangay service points for effective Acceptance of Family Planning motivation.
q. There is a need for a more innovative and liberating method of extending medical care assistance and AICS than what is presently practiced.
B.1.5 TRAINING
It is observed that social welfare organizations last while free supplies lasts and that their activities are reactionary in character. It is ascribed to the fact that
most if not all, beneficiaries are at the survival level and the field workers are in voluntary basis. After Bayo Pequeño, Butuan, Nato, Poblacion, and
Talisayan accessed Self Employment Assistance –Kaunlaran fund for their daycare parents and women’s income-generating project and the basic skills
training for the said project, their group activities started to die down. What were once active groups in community development affairs is nowhere heard
now after loans were extended to them. In this regard, there is a need for more appropriate technical training for implementers, volunteers and program
participants.
216
B.2 Projection of Future Needs
Using the participation rate method, the projected clientele for 1999 is 2,585 or computed as equal to 12,012 residents projected to be below poverty line
multiplied by the current MSWDO clientele of 2,383 divided by the current population below poverty line which is 11,074. This brings an annual increase of
202 people to contend with depending on the rate of increase of the population.
E. SECTORAL GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
GOAL: To improve the quality of life of individuals in especially difficult circumstances and the living conditions of the least privileged
families belonging to the 30% bottom.
OBJECTIVE: 1. To increase the municipal coverage of various services of the various disadvantage groups from CY2003 to CY2010:
j. Families in especially difficult circumstances from 33.55% to 36.65% or 661 low income to 772 out of 1970 families
k. Communities in especially difficult circumstances from 43.48% to 65.22%; or 10 out of 23 to15 out of 23 barangays
l. Women in especially difficult circumstances from 4.39% to 9.43%; 265 to 569 women out of 6036 projected number
m. Children (03-05 years old) 34.18% to 45.40% and Children (06-12 years old) 0.00 to 46.53% or 1483 & 3187
n. Youth (13-21) from 1.64% to 30.00%; (656/1890) to (858/1890) and 55 to 1127 out of 3756
o. Persons with Disabilities from 53.24% to 60.00%;
p. Senior Citizens from 40.46% to 50.00%; (738/1824) – (912/1824)
q. Indigenous People in especially difficult circumstances from unspecified to 100.00%; and,
217
r. Distressed/ Displaced Families from 59.14% to 86.02%; (fire victims 55/93 to 80/93 = 86.02)
2. To enable the 5 communities (senior citizens, women, youth, daycare parents, persons with disabilities) and their POs and
other members of civil society to implement programs and projects that will alleviate poverty and empower disadvantage
individuals and families, by the EO2005.
3. To catalyze income producing ventures for 300 poor families of the community, by the EO2005.
D.1.1 PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
- Service delivery should be liberating -its managers providing the direction and freeing the creativity of the community to help themselves.
D.1.2 FUNDING AND RESOURCES
- The local government of Anini-y should use innovative, imaginative and catalytic approaches in the implementation of its social welfare and
development program and projects by investing more on people empowerment. Dole-out should be discouraged at the extent most possible
by using the “food/ cash for work” approach for grant assistance. It should be inculcated to the residents that there is no “free ride” in
development endeavors.
- The MSWDO staff should be re-directed towards a people-led but government-assisted welfare program by introducing them to a shift in
development paradigm and good planning, and providing them with appropriate office equipment for up-to-date management information
system, mobility support, and communication facilities.
218
D.1.3 FACILITIES AND SERVICES
- Services of barangay daycare volunteers receiving mobility allowances should be enhanced through institutionalization of performance
contracts or similar means geared towards coverage expansion by providing them adequate supervision from the MSWDO.
- The private secondary schools’ nutrition service delivery should jointly be covered by school nurses and MSWDO by a special agreement
between the municipal government and the Department of Education since no government personnel is assigned to provide for this gap.
- Efforts for accessing very much needed facilities like daycare, senior care, and early child development centers and other beneficial parts of
the package should be focused and concerted by instituting a strong lobby backed-up with equity funds and barangay active support.
- The local administration should tap the services of well-meaning partners from the civil society and with good track records in the
implementation of people empowerment activities by making them handle the conscientization, organizing and income-generating projects.
D.1.4 AREA AND BENEFICIARY SELECTION
- Selection process should consider more the need-program-resource-participation matching technique at the field level and less on political
considerations to make the poverty response sustainable, in accord with DSWD requirements and in close consultation with the
beneficiaries.
- Persons on especially difficult circumstances among many qualified beneficiaries should be given priority in the target setting.

SPORTS AND RECREATION
“A healthy balance between work and play makes Citizen Juan brighter, productive and free”
226
Sports and Recreation Sector is one field where no one in the municipal government takes charge. The required data needed for a responsive and relevant
sport program could be hardly found in one office as DECS limit their sphere on sports activities of school going children. Out-of-school youth sports
activities are included in the regular Pag-asa Youth Association Camporees while DILG thru its LGUlypics or “Palarong Bayan” caters to the sports
development needs of the local officials and the above-SK age population. At most, this sector is lodge with the barangay Sangguniang Kabataan and their
municipal federation.
However, the SK chairperson or their federation president does not hold daily office. Their sports program is also seasonal, fiesta-based and mostly limited
to basketball and volleyball summer leagues. Therefore, planning for this sector is primarily focused on area identification available for the establishment of
sports and recreation facilities in the municipality. Likewise, the relevance of sports and recreation sector in relation to other sector is scrutinized.
A.1 Existing Sports and Recreational Facilities
Table SR1 identifies 24 Basketball Courts occupying a total of 10,215 square meters of ground, more or less. It is the most prevalent sports facility and is
found in every barangay indicating that the people of Anini-y, especially the youths are also basketball-crazy like the rest of the country. Two are found in
private lots: 1 in Casay Viejo and, 1 inside the St. Andrew’s High School campus. Located at or near the local administration centers, all courts have multiple
socio-economic functions. It can become a volleyball court, a dance court, a place for people’s assembly, a grain-drying pavement, copra dryer, etc.
The Playground is the second most prevalent social facility, especially for children’s recreation. This recreational space covers 57,476 square meters of
ground in 18 Anini-y barangays. These are established in 18 public schools campus, 4 secondary school grounds and plaza’s of Casay, Igpalge and,
Milagrosa. The barangays without this open space are Bayo Pequeño, Lisub B, Sagua, Butuan and, Casay Viejo. These are barangays that have no school,
too.
227
These spaces are temporary as the areas are sometimes planted to short-term cash crops during rainy months.
The 4 secondary schools’ libraries serve also as recreational areas for their respective students and alumni who do some cour se-related researches.
Magdalena has a reading center that doubles as barangay info center. These Libraries/ Public Reading Centers occupy 220 sq. m. Nasuli C considers its
multi-purpose hall as recreation center being a natural reading or chatting place for barangay folks whiling their time away. Tagaytay considers their
barangay center as a recreation center for the same reason. These 2 facilities add another 352 square meters for various small-time recreations.
A private consortium manages the Anini-y cockpit located in a private lot at the periphery of the Poblacion. It covers more or less 1,000 square meters –just
enough for a decent cockpit’s seasonal operations. Talisayan boasts of the 15 square meter billiard hall, the only one in the municipality. Another privately
run recreation area is the very natural Look Beach Resort in Magdalena where people can have a picnic and swim, though it is not developed at this
moment. The two most prominent religious sects in the municipality maintain its respective dance court. On the other hand, Lisub B and San Francisco
reported that they are also maintaining their children’s Play lot of 100 and 225 square meters, respectively. Nato reports also it has a 575 square meter
Badminton Court.
On the other hand, Anini-y LGU operates a swimming pool of sulfuric waters at the Sira-an Hot Spring Development Complex. The swimming pool including
its cozy bath tubs covers more or less, 100 square meters of the resort area. As a picnic resort, this complex is in tandem with the Nogas Island that hosts
an island fiesta once a year. All of these resorts cover 647,412 square meters with Nogas Island offering the widest lot. Anini-y’s other recreational area is
its Municipal Plaza and Park -the staging area for most, if not all, municipal-wide activities. It has a basketball court, a dance court, a covered stage and an
amphitheater. Located along side the Anini-y Catholic Church Plaza and Park, both facilities cover 16,537 square meters.

Volleyball is next most favorite sport. Many of its 3,453 adherents (17.07%) are elementary pupils (30.41%). Casay and Igpalge are most attuned to this
game. It turned out the Professionals also preferred volleyball more than basketball (244 vs. 152) however, 470 of them indicated they love swimming most.
232
Among the 2,664 swimmers surveyed, their numbers add up to another group of 49.44% elementary pupils and high school students, all avid beach and
sea lovers that go swimming at the sea every time there is an opportunity. In the whole municipality, a coastal barangay (Iba) and an upland barangay
(Igpalge) volunteered to love swimming more than the rest of the barangays.
Running is another outdoor sport that has earned 756 adherents among the population and is more popular in Tagaytay and Bayo Pequeño. On the other
hand, Softball has remained as an alternative sport in the barangays of Nato, Sagua and Milagrosa only during summer.
Among the indoor sports, Pool is popular in Casay Viejo, Nato and, Tagaytay. Magdalena reportedly would like to excel on table tennis while only Milagrosa
reported to prefer playing Chess than indulging on other indoor recreations. Last but not least, Tagaytay is the only barangay to have enjoyed Boxing.
Finally, there are 1,198 residents under the groups surveyed that do not prefer any of the sports under study but likewise, have not specified the type of
sport or recreation they prefer.
A.3 Adequacy/ Inadequacy of the Facilities
Children are very active kind. They need enough space to spend their seemingly inexhaustible energies. At present, there are 57,476 square meters of play
area available for 2005 children population of 7,393 belonging to 1-18 years of age and 5,542 young children from 1-14 years old. This is equivalent to
0.7774 Ha/1000 population and 1.0371Ha/1000 population, respectively. For the space requirement of 13,089 older children and adults whose ages range
from 15-59 years, an additional open space of 2.9472Ha from plaza and parks, basketball/volleyball/dance/badminton courts, swimming pool, and play lots
are available for a total of 8.6948 hectares equivalent to 0.6643 Ha/1000 population. These data indicate Anini-y has met adequately the space requirement
standards for active recreations. The ideal size of space required for active recreations is likewise adequately meet if Nogas Island area and the more than
20 kilometers of Anini-y beaches are included. However, there is a need to establish playgrounds in 5 aforementioned barangays without a school facility.
233
Field sports activities require 0.4 hectares per 5000 population for tennis, outdoor basketball and other courts. Anini-y has only 0.3047Ha/ 5000 population
to show of. Anini-y must establish 3,856 square meters more of various courts to meet this standard. However, the space requirements for other field sports
activities are adequately meet. For 1 outdoor pool/ 2,500 populations the municipality has only 100 sq. m. pool at Sira-an but the shores of Anini-y are more
than enough compensation. Moreover, the municipal government shall be completing its additional competition–size swimming pool at the resort very soon.
While boating is an ordinary fare in Anini-y, the standard requirement of 40.5Ha/50,000 population for major boating activities is not a problem. The
municipality is a coastal town with a protective and very accessible Nogas Island. Furthermore, Anini-y has ample hiking/horseback riding areas as
mountains are just around the barangay built-up areas. Finally, the municipality hosted once a southern district camping for boy scouts but the camping
ground was closed thereafter. The 64-hectare Nogas Island would also suffice as a camping ground or place for nature study, the island being declared
recently as fish sanctuary. This island together with Sira-an Hot Spring and Look Resort are more than enough to meet the requirement of picnicking.
Golfing and other passive recreations like water sports and zoos are absent in the area. Like indoor recreation center, these are amenities that while
desirable are expensive to establish and maintain. The LGU though, must establish parking areas at recreation centers –a doable and income generating
endeavor.
A.4 Potential of Natural Physical Resources
Anini-y is blessed with abundant sunshine, pristine beaches, clean air and natural beauty spots. Its rugged physical feature is a blessing in disguise. It has a
narrow coastal plain hemmed in many places by abruptly rising mountains and the clean blue sea. There is no “fuming and effluent disgorging factories” in
the areas so that air is guaranteed clean. It has “Cresta de Gallo” -only natural scenic spots in the region. Moreover, Anini-y is noted for its many small rivers
and streams with their many small cascades that can become a luxury for tired mind and body, a haven for idyllic relaxation. The forests and the mountains
is now slowly thickening with trees becoming a haven for disappearing wildlife. Within this forest zone lie several cool springs that aside from its domestic
234
and irrigation purposes can become the seat of a mountain resort and cut flowers project. In the periphery of this forest lies the 100-foot Busay Falls in
Poblacion.
This part of Antique has been observed to have the longest dry season in the region. Thus, swimming at its ever-welcoming beaches becomes a natural
past time for cooling off the warmth generated during summer months. A small Bantigue beach cove offers a more private swim and natural retreat. Much
more, Anini-y has the balmy waters of Sira-an sulfuric spring. Its rocky promontory commands a romantic panorama of the placid waters between Nogas
Island and the mainland, especially during sunset. The protective length of Nogas shields from the waves the sparkling black-gray sands stretching from
Poblacion to Nato, making it the safest place to swim in the whole municipality. Moreover, this strip has the potential of becoming a modern beach resort.
On the other hand, long stretches of coastline from Salvacion up to San Francisco, Sagua to Bayo Grande and, around the island is rimmed with coral reefs.
Off shore of Sira-an to Nogas to the sea off the former Hurao-hurao Island lies several hectares of coral reefs that is considered by some divers from
Boracay is better than where they are diving in that world-famous resort.
Above these natural and physical attributes of the place, the “Anini-y Tourism Polygon” of Sira-an Hot Spring, Nogas Island and its diving area, the old
Catholic Church and the soon-to-be-established Nasog Resort is expected to contribute much for the economic development of Anini-y. Very soon, eco-
tourism, sport fishing and other water sports could become a lucrative business and worthwhile recreation of Anini-y. Providing concrete access road to the
municipality, keeping the commercial fishing boats beyond the 15-kilometer limit, strict enforcement of other fishery laws and, mitigating open-sea garbage
dumping by ships plying the ‘tuna highway’ will hasten the process.
A.5 Potential Areas for Wholesome and Healthful Recreational Development
Among the potential areas in Anini-y listed in Table SR3 below, Nasog’s unique mountain spires pose as a very promising spot for rock climbing sports.
Aside from a minimal site development costs, its potential as revenue generator is enormous. Rock climbing has become a new pad that nature lovers
235
would find very tempting to try. Integrated with the Bantigue Cove and the adjacent 5-hectare resettlement site as camping ground, it could be easily
developed into a fulltime eco-camping and retreat area. San Francisco’s sunset viewing from its play lot is not far away.

The development and health potentials of beach resorts in Butuan, Nato, San Roque, Magdalena, Talisayan, Lisub A and Lisub B are next in the line up.
Other ecology-friendly and wholesome recreational areas are the mangrove plantation growing around Nogas Island and the coastal areas covering 12
236
barangays from Salvacion to San Francisco, in Sagua, Lisub B to Bayo Grande. As rehabilitation and protection of these areas have been started several
years back, different varieties of fish have started to come back, this will soon start to attract the tunas (that abound off shore) and the sport fishing
enthusiasts. Bugtong Rock, off shore of Sagua and very proximate to Nogas Island could easily become another sport fishing area.
The open spaces in the upland barangays of Igtumarom, Milagrosa, Igpalge and Nasuli C are good “pasungay” grounds during special occasions. This
recreation will likely spur more livestock farmers to plant more shrubs for an intensified animal breeding and fattening in search of good materials for this
sport, thus improving environmental condition, their economic lot and invigorate local revenue generation.
The water springs and mountain trails of Tagaytay and San Ramon, Poblacion Busay Falls and the Magdalena Puti Falls could be integrated into a
mountain resort for hiking, horseback riding and fresh water swimming.
Last but not least, the unutilized DepEd lot at the Poblacion and the school ground of SRENHS could be converted into some Sports Fields.
237
B.1 Current Problems and Needs
B.1.1 SPACE AND FACILITY REQUIREMENTS
➢ Need to establish playgrounds in Barangays Bayo Pequeño, Lisub B, Sagua, Butuan and, Casay Viejo that have no schools although
the municipal-wide space requirements for open spaces and playgrounds are adequately met.
➢ Need to establish 3,856 square meters more of various courts and playing fields to meet the standard of field sports activities that
require 0.4 hectares per 5000 population for tennis, outdoor basketball and other courts.
➢ Need to complete immediately the additional competition–size swimming pool at the Sira-an resort complex to comply with 1 outdoor
pool/ 2,500 population standard requirement.
➢ Need to establish parking areas at recreation centers.
➢ Need to provide concrete access road to the municipality.
B.1.2 SPORTS PROGRAM AND MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE
➢ Need to niche on sports where Anini-y once excelled:
a. softball especially in Nato, Sagua and Milagrosa;
b. running especially in Tagaytay, Bayo Pequeño and other upland barangays; and,
c. boxing in Tagaytay and other barangays.
238
➢ Need to complete the 1000-seat covered court as staging area for the municipal-wide activities and festival especially during rainy days.
➢ Indoor sports adherents (like Pool in Casay Viejo, Nato & Tagaytay; Table Tennis in Magdalena; Chess in Milagrosa) need support.
➢ Need for a sports office and a coherent year-round sports program.
B.1.3 OTHER SPORTS AND MEASURES
➢ 1,198 residents have not specified the type of sport or recreation they prefer. They may need the more passive type i.e., picnicking as
water sports and zoos while desirable are expensive to establish and maintain. However, Siraan HSHR can no longer accommodate
the influx even of local tourist. In this regard, control and management of Nogas Island as a nature refuge and picnic groove need to be
acquired by the local government from DOTC/ Coast Guard immediately.
➢ Need to keep the commercial fishing boats beyond the 15-kilometer limit, strict enforcement of other fishery laws and, mitigate open-
sea garbage dumping by ships plying the “tuna highway”
➢ Need of Deed of usufruct to be secured for play courts established on private lots as in the case of Bayo Grande, Casay Viejo and,
Tagaytay and other courts that may be established in the future to make their public use more permanent.
B.2 Future Needs
a. Funds, facilities and expertise to exploit the potentials of diving sports off shore of Sira-an and around Nogas towards the sea off the former
Hurao-hurao Island -considered by some divers from Boracay as better than where they are diving in that world-famous resort.
b. Need to integrate and develop Mount Nasog’s unique mountain spires, the San Francisco’s sunset-viewing deck, Bantigue Cove and its 5-
ha. resettlement site into a full-time eco-camping and retreat area.
239
c. Need to develop beach resorts (in Butuan, Nato, San Roque, Magdalena, Talisayan, Lisub A and Lisub B) and mangrove plantation (around
Nogas Island and the coastal areas covering 12 barangays from Salvacion to San Francisco, in Sagua, Lisub B to Bayo Grande).
d. Bontog Rock, off shore of Sagua and very proximate to Nogas Island could easily become another sport fishing and diving area.
e. Need to promote “pasungay” in the upland barangays of Igtumarom, Milagrosa, Igpalge and Nasuli C.
f. Funds, facilities and expertise to develop and integrate the water springs and mountain trails of Tagaytay and San Ramon, Poblacion Busay
Falls and the Magdalena Puti Falls into a mountain resort for hiking, horseback riding and fresh water swimming.
g. Memorandum of joint undertaking for the municipality and DepEd to convert the unutilized DepEd lot at the Poblacion and the school
ground of SRENHS into some Sports Fields.
Goals : To promote the physical well being of all residents of the community.
Objectives : a. To establish a sports and recreation program by the end of 2007, and
b. To provide adequate facilities for the physical development of the community residents by the end of 2015.
240
a. It shall be the policy of the municipal government to continuously conserve and develop recreational resources to satisfy the social and
health goals of its residents.
b. The LGU should be highly selective in financing the construction of its sports facilities by having higher priority consideration to those that
promote cultural and wholesome family entertainment, income generating and environment-friendly.
c. Sports and recreational facilities development, eco-tourism, cultural and historical spots preservation programs should be made
complimentary and integrative by putting the management of these various concerns under one office for budgetary efficiency and
programmatic impact.
d. The municipal government should encourage the major participation of the civil society and the business sector in the municipal Sports
Development Program by appointing sport enthusiasts among its residents as local consultants and managers at no cost from the LGU and
by establishing an inter-sectoral sports commission.

A. PROFILE AND ANALYSIS OF THE SITUATION
A1. Existing Peace and Order Situation
By the end of 2005, a Senior Police Officer 2/ OIC and fifteen (15) males and one (1) female police officers of various ranks have direct supervision over the
peace and order situation of Anini-y’s 20,599 residents for a 1:1,212 police force to population ratio. The local PNP contingent had a regular police inspector
leading a 16-man unit 5 years ago and had a better 1:1,124 police to resident ratio but, the current force is younger force and more professionally equipped.
Presently, its unit holds comfortably its local headquarters at one of the most recently built PNP building in Antique, almost triple its 48 square meter office at
the former RHU building. It has a receiving area, inspector’s office, radio room, comfort room and a kitchen. The receiving area has a rattan sala set to offer
comfort to its clientele and a television to keep them awake while on duty and a karaoke stereo. Furthermore, the office has the necessary tables, chairs,
and a manual typewriter for report writing. It has a steel cabinet and a wooden cabinet for filing and safekeeping of reports and other valuables.
The local peace-keeping force is operating with less provision than it was 5 years ago. For communication support, it is now operating one (1) base radio,
down from 2 in 2000. It is also maintaining a transmission tower to boost its signal. Its 4 non-operational two-way hand-held radios gave way to the modern
personally-owned and subscribed cellular phones. For mobility, the police force has one (1) patrol car (not at all times reliable) and a motorcycle available
for rapid deployment and response. The mayor has also allowed them the use of available municipal trucks on times of emergencies. It can no longer use
the sidelined and scrapped municipal ambulance nor the unserviceable 2 NIDC patrol boats for sea-borne operations due to lack of maintenance funds.
They are now armed with 13 caliber 5.56 M16 rifles, 5 9mm Pistols (Beretta), 3 cal 38 Revolvers, 2 cal 38 Pistols, and 1 cal 380 Pistols. Formerly they were
provided with 17 M16 rifles, 10 .38 caliber revolvers/ pistols, 3 9mm caliber pistol and ammunitions for aforesaid firearms. Today, it reported each of them
personally buy the ammunitions of their assigned firearms.

The municipality maintains a holding cell at the PNP building. For jail management purposes, Anini-y detainees are kept at T. Fornier detention cells where
they remain unless otherwise ordered to be brought to San Jose Rehabilitation Center or released.
Tanod brigades are organized to assist the local police authorities and the barangay officials in the maintenance of peace and order in their respective
areas. Table PS1 above indicates each of Magdalena tanods have their hands full servicing an average of 187 persons, followed by those of San Roque
and Casay with 149 and 134 persons, respectively. Tagaytay tanods served at least 24 persons on the average. Trained disaster and rescue operations
volunteers in the municipality are inactivel but if necessary, their groups may be activated to action. Other volunteer groups such as traffic auxillary or
barangay aides are not yet needed in the municipality.
The Philippine Coast Guard maintains a clearing post manned by a lighthouse keeper assigned at Nogas Island. For emergency warning, the Coast Guard
maintains a solar-powered lighthouse to warn and guide the ships of their route and likewise, to beacon the local deep-sea fishermen of the way home. No
private security guard is presently employed in Anini-y nor a security agency and detective services. The Philippine Air Force radar station in the area is at
present abandoned.
Another monitoring devise located and abandoned in Anini-y is that owned and operated by the DOST to locate earthquakes’ epicenter as Panay is located
along the Negros Trench and the Philippine fault line. For disaster and relief operations and rehabilitation, the schools are always reserved for the purpose.
247
2. Incidence of Fire
San Jose and Sibalom fire fighting personnel and equipment (41 and 51km. away, respectively or one-hour away, more or less) responded when the June
1999 fire (the only for the last 6 years) broke out in Talisayan. Five neighboring barangays also responded. Fire trucks response from Miag-ao and San
Joaquin, all of Iloilo Province arrived very late and the fire was already put under control. Said fire was due to negligence but no one was persecuted.
Presently, the LGU can not afford to establish and maintain fire personnel and facilities. What is on stand by is the cart-mounted municipal fire pump with a
water hose and water tank but, without an assigned operator.
3. Incidence of Crime
Out of 82 crime incidence since 1995 until 1999, 68 offenses or 82.93% of these crimes falls under crime vs. persons and 14 offenses or 17.07% falls
under crime vs. property, chastity, moral and order, and other classification of crimes.
Data showed the incidence for crime against chastity, moral and order was increasing with 1 in 1996, 2 in 1997 and 3 in 1998. This could be caused by
the loosening of morals brought about by lewd scenes in the television and those videos brought home by the seafaring oversea workers. The
awakening of the sense of human dignity and human rights being advocated more openly nowadays resulted also to the reporting of this crime which
then are better kept secret and remained unreported. Crime against property while fluctuating in the first 3 years has stopped in the fourth year. The
total crime incidence however, was highest during that year. Most of these crimes were against persons with the 1998 figure registering more than
double of the 1997 incidence.
This increase in crime rate maybe attributed to a number of factors such as lack of transportation and inadequacy of a number of policemen that can be
fielded due to topographical characteristics of Anini-y and location of population areas (Refer to Table PS3 below).

4. Number of criminal complaints investigated and filed
Generally, Anini-y is a very peaceful town if not the most peaceful town in the province anytime from 1999 up to the present in terms of the percentage
resolution by the police of the crimes reported. Likewise, crime incidence has drastically dropped from 23 in 1998 to 14 in 1999 for a 40% dive. Crime
against chastity dropped by two-third. This fact is validated by the number of local tourists from the adjoining municipalities and even tourists from the
adjoining province of Iloilo coming to Anini-y for their well-deserved rest and recreation.
The tightening of economic activities are not attributed to the peace and order situation but to many micro and micro factors, one of which is the prevailing
peso-dollar and other foreign currencies exchange rate. The number of small businesses that have sprouted is just an indication that Anini-y is well on its
way toward peace, socio-economic progress and improved human and ecological security.
249
1. Population Demand for Policemen when based on minimum standards requires Anini-y to have at least 20 policemen by 2006.
2. Presence of a fireman in the force who could have directed the responding tanods and other volunteers from the 5 barangays during the fire
incidence could have reduced the number of family victims. A fire team with the minimum standard fire fighting equipment and training requirements
is needed as housing structures are beginning to get constructed very close to each other due to limited space. The same team may be utilized to
lead the disaster preventive and co-ordinative action and response.
3. Defective and non-operating handheld radios are not repaired. Patrolmen and mobile patrols are not equipped with this radio set.
4. Construction of separate male and female detention/ holding cells.

AGRICULTURE
“ Whoever can make the grasses grow two blades at a time is greater than all politicians combined “
253
Planning the agriculture sector needed a minimum set of data, information, and especially maps as bases for subsequent activities. All information that is
considered relevant was gathered painstakingly at the start of the process to efficiently assess the existing situation of the agricultural sector.
1. Crop Production
1.1 AREA DEVOTED TO AGRICULTURAL CROP PRODUCTION
In Table A1, the 6 major crops grown are rice, corn, coconut, banana, mango and vegetables in Year 2000. These occupy 2,871.27 hectares or 43.39% of
6,617.2108 Ha - the total land area of Anini-y. Compared to the total agricultural land area of 4,231.7000 hectares (based on the Municipal Assessor’s
Office 2005 records) the 6 major crops are cultivated at 67.85% of all agricultural lands and only 59.08% of total arable lands of 4,860 hectares (based on
the Bureau of Forest Development records). Total cultivated area of Anini-y for all crops is 3,145.3523 hectares.
Rice plantation makes up 63.20% or 2,034.67Ha, followed by area planted to coconut at 406.90 Ha. Corn is planted in 350.70 Ha. It is usually noted that the
fields planted to corn are also those that are planted with rice. Hence, the figures above may indicate that of the 2,165.27 hectares planted to rice, 350.70
hectares of these are planted to corn after the former is harvested. Previous observation revealed that rain-fed areas planted to rice are usually planted with
corn in between rows. However, this pattern is found to be a bad practice. Thus, corn now is planted after the rice harvest season. But this practice again, is
observed to cause rapid soil fertility deterioration. Hence, mongo becomes the alternate crop after rice is harvested.
Looking deeper into the data on Table A1 below, mono-crop pattern is still prevalent considering that only 17.24% of the rice fields is planted to corn. This is
considering that same rice fields are also used as cornfields. Moreover, the data do not even cite mongo as an alternate crop after rice.

1.2 AREA AND PRODUCTION, BY MAJOR CROPS
Based on 40 kg/cavan palay measure, average production/Ha on communally irrigated rice field is 80 cavans. The privately irrigated lands have, more or
less, the same production yield. However, rain-fed areas yield an average of 75 cavans/Ha. This is more than double the 30 cavans average yield per
hectare in upland areas. For the average, non-irrigated rice field production is 32.00 cavans/Ha. –40% that of the irrigated lands. This annual palay harvest
of 3,512.33 metric tons (1 MT = 1000 kg.) is worth Php 26,342,475 at Php 300/cavan. Likewise, Anini-y produces annually 42.08 MT of corn equivalent to
Php 134,656 at Php 3.20/kilo. For other crops, total coconut production amounted to 605.52 MT worth Php 6.3172 Million, banana and mango yield 335.00
MT and 150.00 MT, respectively worth Php 4.5586M and Php 5.4431M while various vegetables weigh 7.50 MT worth approximately Php 0.1710M at Php
25.00 per kilo. Not included are other crops produced during the period as data are not available.
255
1.3 KEY GRAIN AREAS AND COMMERCIAL CROP AREAS
Anini-y due to its small land area dominated by lands with more than 18 percent slopes was not considered by the Department of Agriculture as one of its
Key Grain Areas. It neither identified the municipality as one of its Key Commercial Crop Areas under the Key Production Areas Development Approach.
However, on its own, the municipality identified Barangays Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeño, Butuan, Lisub A, Lisub B, Mabuyong, Magdalena, Nato,
Poblacion, Sagua, San Roque, and Talisayan as its Key Grain Areas. Barangays Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeño, Lisub B, Mabuyong, Magdalena and San
Roque were identified as its Key Commercial Crop (coconut and bamboo) Areas.
1.4 AGRICULTURAL SUPPORT FACILITIES (Pre and Post-Harvest Facilities)
a Irrigation Facilities
Anini-y has 2 communal irrigation systems (CIS). The Lisub-Anini-y CIS has two dams: the first draws its irrigation water from Talisayan River; and, the
other dams the Lisub Creek’s water. The 118 beneficiary-farms are those found mostly in Lisub A. One lot on the Lisub B side and 2 lots at the
Talisayan side have availed of the irrigation water from this system. Capacity-wise, spring waters from southern part of Tagaytay feeding Talisayan
River is just enough for designed coverage up to second cropping but the Lisub Creek emanating from the foot of Mt. Aliwliw is somewhat limited as
flow tends to diminish during dry months. Water flow stabilizes starting July to November, just enough for second cropping and affords some farming
household to “triple” when planting season comes early. While it is programmed to irrigate 23.7617 hectares of farmland, it had been reliably serving the
needs of 25 hectares during first cropping season. The extra hectarage came from a farm in Lisub B. During the second cropping, from the Lisub Creek
water can barely sufficed for the needs of 44 regular member-farmers in the 11.0787-hectare farms. Only 3 hectares near the Talisayan River dam were
serviced for third cropping and 2 hectares were operated in the other dam for water supply system efficiency rating of 215.05%.

Lisub Creek dam is constructed lower than the canal level thus, earthen ditch about 150meters from the dam appeared weak, is easily silted and the
levees periodically breached causing erosion and damage. The earthen ditch needs regular de-clogging –an indication that continuity or reliability of
irrigation water supply is questionable in the long run. Frequent silting is a sign of fast denuding watershed. Efforts must be exerted to improve the water
delivery by paving the ditches with concrete. Design and structural improvement in the second dam must also be considered.
The second public irrigation facility is Nato-Butuan CIS serving 46.25 Ha of rice lands out of the projected irrigable area of 22.9061 Ha of farmlands in
Nato and Butuan for a water supply efficiency rate of 201.91%. (Please note that service area is multiplied twice when it is used for second cropping).
Its water source – Nato River is serviced by springs including a 45cm spring located within the perimeter of Nato just off the foot of Mt. Igdacoton, San
Ramon. It can reliably irrigate double that of the present coverage up to the second cropping only as the source is reduced during summer months.
During rainy months NBCIS can water even the rice fields at the Poblacion, if a siphon is built across Simsim Creek and the canal is extended. The
almost 1 kilometer long earth canal however, needs concrete lining to improve over-all system’s efficiency. The present condition of the watershed at
the headwaters of this irrigation facility is fairly forested but protective measures must be in place as there is human settlement immediately beyond this
area. Anyhow, its continuity and reliability depends on how the present membership of the system maintains this facility.

Table A3 shows 130.6Ha were irrigated by various small irrigation facilities. Twenty-five (25) small inexpensive irrigation structures (SIIS) irrigate
44.87%; 40 gasoline or diesel powered pumps cover 37.52%; 3 private and 1 public small farm reservoirs (SFR) water 7.66%; and 4 small diversion
dam (SDD) 9.96%. A public small farm reservoir located in Sagua irrigates 4Ha for 3.02%. The rest is irrigated by private, small water irrigation facilities.
Some farmlands have privately owned shallow wells or ponds from where water is pumped to serve their own particular rice fields.
259
In few areas where rivers are near the fields, pumps are also used to irrigate the lands. Such portable pumps of various capacities irrigate 49 Ha in 12
barangays in the municipality. Most of the SIIS can be found at Milagrosa. This facility irrigates 58.6 Ha in 11 barangays of Anini-y. On the other hand,
Magdalena, Milagrosa and Poblacion have 1 SFR each irrigating 8 hectares with the Poblacion facility irrigating 75% of these areas. The only public
SFR found in Sagua waters 2 hectares while the lone SDD covered 1.0 hectare in Casay. An SSD unit in Lisub A services an area as large as the
service area of the other 2 units in Talisayan which service areas total to 6 hectares.
b Support Facilities/ Post Harvest Facilities
All barangays are now interconnected by farm-to-market roads. Yet, year-round accessibility to markets of upland barangays remains desirable. At
times roads are impassable to public utility transports and traveling on foot is very trying as footpaths are very slippery when wet by rains. Residents
have to use “carosa,” which again, contribute further to road’s deterioration -usual problem in the Tagaytay-Igtumarom-San Ramon area, Igpalge,
Milagrosa and Nasuli C where traffic flow is very irregular, if not nil. Furthermore, the new Magdalena-Igtumarom penetration road is very narrow. In
many sections, the road width is 3 meters, more or less. Its improvement will depend largely on availability of funds to buy additional lands for road
widening as the farmers have previously donated portions that will allow just a single traffic flow.
In most cases, the farm-to-market road established in an area traverses only the main puroks and there are barangays having districts that are far
from these access roads. The 41 affected sitios/districts are Kalabnogan in Bayo Grande; White Plains and Green Valley in Casay; Durog in Casay
Viejo; Apog-apog in Iba; Bungsod and Igdilaterio in Igpalge; all puroks outside of Igtumarom proper; Purok III in Lisub B; 5 sitios in Purok III of
Mabuyong; 9 puroks outside of Magdalena proper and Look; all 3 puroks in Milagrosa; Datag and Nagluay in Nasuli C; Sira-an, Kansilayan and
Durog of Purok III in Nato; Takas in Salvacion; Igaub of Purok I and Layab-layab of Purok IV in San Francisco; all puroks in San Ramon; and,

Source: New IRAP/ MPDO Secondary Data
This inaccessibility problem affects 903 farming households or more than one-fifth of all municipal households. This figure increases tremendously
during rainy season. Some sitios are very near the barangay proper but those in the uplands suffer the same problem of distance from the markets
or middlemen. The longest walk for travel to barangay proper alone takes from within a minute to 75 minutes.
Of the 23 barangays of Anini-y, 7 of them are not experiencing this accessibility problem but within these 7 barangays there are farmers whose
farms are located in one of the 16 barangays with access problems. However, data are not available on how many farming households are affected.
Three (3) sitios in Table A4 are identified as minor agricultural producers of rice, but these areas are also good coconut-growing farms.
To alleviate the flight of the affected barangays, their local council allocates a certain amount from their annual IRA allocation, although very
miniscule, for maintenance of their respective farm to market access road. Likewise, most of them submit their respective barangay resolution to the
mayor or the provincial governor or the district representative to the Philippine Congress for funding support from the 20% development funds of the
unit’s Internal Revenue Allotment or countryside development fund, as the case may be. There are also those that request road project funds from
the senators’ pork barrel allocation. Sometimes, the provincial government lends out its road maintenance equipment to the barangays for free on
conditions that the locals pay for food allowance of the equipment operators and buy the lubricants, fuel and oil of said equipment. In most
instances, the barangay residents are made to render “dagyaw” for road rehabilitation, especially when barangay fiesta is approaching to enable the
sound system transport vehicle and the local priest reach their locality. The succeeding discussions focus mainly on rice/ palay production patterns
and facilities as these are the concerns that are given emphasis by most farmers.
262
About 18 hand tractors locally called “bao-bao” service the plowing need of some irrigated lands. However, most farmers still use the traditional
wooden or iron plow drawn by a carabao while weeding is mostly done by hand during the land preparation. Modern techniques using hand tractors
for land preparation may serve the needs of non-irrigated farms. Hand sickle or “garab” is the sole harvest equipment used.

Looking back into Table A1 figures where 43.89% of the total agricultural lands devoted to crop production is non-irrigated rice lands, one could just
surmise how extensive is the use of traditional farm implements in Anini-y. Nevertheless, mechanized threshers in 19 barangays eased the
separation of palay seeds from the stalks. Farmers from adjacent barangays used to rent threshers from neighboring barangays. Surely, this is the
mechanized farm implement that has almost totally wiped out the traditional threshing by foot using the “linasan”. Per MAO’s record 65 threshers
are available in the municipality. What is sorely lacking is the mechanical drier that would surely reduce time spent for processing of palay grains to
rice. None has found its way in Anini-y, yet.
The average size of riceland per household in Anini-y is only 0.4971 hectare. Many families have to sell immediately their harvests as cash is
always needed for a certain purpose. In this regard, it is impractical to establish a large-scale warehouse within the municipality. The prevailing
practice by the farmers is to keep the harvest inside bamboo-woven containers called “aranyan, tabungos” or “malindog.” Every farming household
always has a “damisag” that serves as storage house or room for the grains.
For drying palay grains “sawali or amakan” is used. Data in Table A5 shows there are 7 multipurpose drying pavements in Anini-y. Three can be
found in Bayo Pequeño, Lisub A and B in the western part of the municipality while 2 are in the eastern part –in Casay and Casay Viejo. The other 2
are in upland Milagrosa and Nasuli C. Extra harvests from bigger land holdings are brought to San Jose for sale.
264
In 2002, 18 rice mills (kiskisan or baby cono) served the municipality’s milling needs. Five of the 7 baby conos are mobile and they move around the
coastal barangays of Anini-y up to part of T. Fornier. The 2others stay in Mabuyong and Milagrosa. On the other hand, 11 kiskisan –the old model of
milling equipment, augment the service for Anini-y’s milling requirements. Three of these are travelling kiskisan while 8 are static or in-placed.
Anini-y experiences a dwindling of coconut bearing trees as matured trees are felled down for construction purposes. Seemingly, there’s no
extensive and systematic coconut tree replanting. Copra production is done only by some farmers who do not really own a great number of coconut
trees.
Only Lisub B has an LGU-run copra drier. Other copra drying facilities in Anini-y are privately-owned like that in Butuan. Many smaller-scale copra
producers use the multi-purpose pavements available in their barangays including the concrete roads. The usual product, the dessicated copra
finds its way to copra buyers, through the middlemen, in San Jose or Iloilo City. To reduce copra production costs, especially on labor and hauling,
many producers are now contented with selling their nuts raw to local middlemen who have coconut gatherers, other manpower and transportation
facility. In most cases, the purchase costs are exploitative.
As for bananas and mango, these products find their way into local markets. Those that can not be absorbed locally are usually brought to Iloilo.
This is especially true for mango as its production is likely a potential source of income. An estimated 50 hectares for mango plantation is identified
that a focused approach and correct technology application would surely boost the farmers’ productivity level. On the other hand, there is an
estimated 100 hectares suitable for banana plantation. The 33 hectares shown in Table A1 are just cumulative hectarage of banana trees that are
usually planted by
265
hills. So far, there is no record of substantial banana farming. Again, it would augur well for farmers to look into this aspect for more profitable
farming venture with future plans for forward economic activities, e.g., processing.
Access to markets facilitates the conversion of agricultural products into cash. In Anini-y, products is sold within the barangay by peddling them
house to house, sold to middlemen or brought to the public market for sale. In most cases, middlemen who are always on the alert go to prospective
producer who has harvested his crops. When the product volume is small, it is usually the farmer who brings his harvest to the middlemen within or
the adjacent barangays.
In a way, Table A5 identifies barangays that have surplus products, types of their products and the manner it is marketed. It also shows the degree
of utilization of the public markets, which are all along the national roads and are located in major economic centers of the municipality.
The 2 Bayos had no product surplus on agricultural crops. If ever they had these were kept by the respective households for their own use. Butuan,
Iba and Salvacion sold only 25% of their produce indicating a meager surplus, which could be due to limited agricultural land area. During the
period more than 50% of the barangays in Anini-y had utilized the public markets for selling their extra harvest, another 50% had made their
marketing through middlemen while a liitle more than 25% prefers to sell their produce to their ‘kasimaryo.”
c. Communication Facilities
Agri-business information, e.g., price trends, technology, etc. keep the farmers abreast with time and economic issues. In terms of price trends, it
seems that information through word by mouth is still the prevailing means. Radio as info source serves as the common communication facilities.
The presence of television in many households can also be a potential facility. However, it is noted that only one or two channels show
agribusiness-related information.
266
Most often, they do not attract many viewers. In Anini-y, the Antique Integrated Area Development Foundation (ANIAD) has provided NICS
Multipurpose Cooperative –an agrarian coop a radio handset to monitor the production and marketing aspects of its partnership’s special projects
under the sustainable crop and livestock industry program. Likewise, every barangay has its own handheld radio communication but it is solely for
barangay governments’ transactions.
d. Agricultural Credit Support and Technical Assistance
Agricultural technicians of Anini-y are each assigned a specific area of concern, namely: grains production; livestock and poultry; fishery; home
management; and nursery development. Two provincial technicians detailed to the municipality work for high value crops and, critical area
protection /micro-watershed projects. The local DAR Office facilitates agrarian community development concerns in agrarian reform areas in the
municipality. In terms of credit facility, Table A6 indicates Casay Credit Cooperative extends loans on fertilizers and other farm inputs to their
farming members. Taytay sa Kauswagan – an Iloilo NGO extends loans to any farmers’ cell of 5 in the municipality.
Anini-y has provided a window under its 20% IRA development funds for agricultural development whereby any sector initiative in the field of
agricultural development may be accessed. This intends to maximize scarce municipal resources which when tapped is expected to yield returns in
terms of projects or development programs

Anini-y during the KKK days was once the region’s best cattle fattening community. Its undulating and abruptly rising hills and mountain with patches of flat
lands at its slopes or tops serves as fertile pastureland and feedlot for its livestock fattening farmers. The LGU identified 547Ha more or less, in Butuan,
Salvacion, Magdalena, Milagrosa, Igpalge, San Ramon, Igtumarom and Tagaytay as its Key Livestock Development Area plus 955.63Ha in the ARC Sub-
Development Zone covering Nasuli C, Iba, Casay, Casay Viejo, and San Francisco -basically primary livestock growing and fattening communities.
Table A7 shows no large-scale livestock producers locally, but backyard growers maintaining 1 or 2 heads. Some households grow 2 heads of livestock
while in in others, 2 family members tend only one. Due to the very small-scale nature of livestock industry in Anini-y almost all families are into livestock
breeding/ growing and fattening. In 2000, Anini-y had 1,357 farming households growing 1,819 total heads of cattle and had 1,253 carabaos tended by 936
livestock farmers (about 317 of them cared for 2 carabaos) in the same year. Bayo Grande had the most number of “vaqueros” while San Ramon had the
most number of cattle. Igpalge’s 78 carabaos was the highest number among those kept in a barangay. Igpalge also had the most number of water buffalo
caretakers.
Anini-y average of at least 10 heads for every 4 growers in 2000 (3,333 swine among 1,466 growers). Casay Viejo had the highest average at 6.25 swine/
grower. Swine fattening proved to be a good source of income then until now, especially for those living near the livestock auction market. Casay had 98
swine growers –the most number in a barangay but, Magdalena had the most number of swine. For goat-raising, 806 goat tenders grew 1,481 ruminants.
San Francisco and Magdalena kept 190 and 140 of these animals, respectively but Magdalena had the most number of caretakers in Anini-y. In all livestock
categories, Poblacion had the least numbers of livestock and livestock growers. In most cases, there are no available spaces as livestock lot in the
Poblacion. Furthermore, its cattle farmers got most of their feeds from farms outside of the barangay as there are no pastures within its boundary.

Table A7 further shows there were 30,569 heads of chicken raised by 2,390 fowl growers in the municipality. Magdalena had the most numbers of chicken
and growers but averaged only 8.57 chickens per farmer. San Francisco’s fowl growers were the most prolific with 25.29 chickens per farmer average.
Complete opposite of this was Milagrosa with 8.08 chickens per farmer. It is not surprising to see many chicken growers in Poblacion, more than in many
barangays but most of them were growing cocks for recreational purposes. Another poultry product in Anini-y was turkey. Turkey-raising was and is not very
popular. There were only 62 fowl growers who raised 142 turkeys in 2000 in the barangays of Lisub A, Poblacion, Sagua, San Francisco, and Talisayan.
Most growers were from San Francisco. Two farmers at Lisub A raised an average of 6 turkeys for each of them.
In the recent survey for livestock and poultry production, data showed cattle, carabao and goats –all ruminants animals’ population has increased while
swine has declined. ”Increasing inputs’ costs and live weight cost remaining constant or sometimes decreasing has affected the swine raising industry while
better access to good forage created a positive impact. Other animal populations gathered are 16 horses, 3,509 dogs, 259 ducks and 1,396 game fowls.
Marketing of these poultry and livestock uses again the mode of selling for cash within the barangay, through middlemen, and via the livestock or public
markets. Table A8 shows about two-thirds of cattle raised in Anini-y were sold in live weight. The rest were cared for as breeder or if butchered was for
consumption either during fiesta or special family occasions. Of the 66.36% heads of cattle sold, 59.93 % was done in the livestock auction market. This
figure indicates that the municipality does not generate revenue from 40 heads of cattle for every 100 heads sold.
Swine appeared the favorite livestock for fattening and the most saleable commodity in Anini-y as 77.39% of all swine were sold in 2000. Of this figure,
64.61% were sold at the auction market or almost 2 out of 3 swine sold the municipality had earned from the transaction. Goat sold at 52.00% is another
upcoming livestock that is profitable to care. Ten barangays reported to have sold this commodity compared to 14 barangays that raised poultry for profit.
An inventory of livestock and poultry farms to determine grazing areas is not available. This industry employs various arrangements between the capitalist
and the farmer depending on the relation of the parties. No specific employment is discernible in these arrangements.

It has been proven time and again, that incomes derive by a livestock farming family where the adult males care for the cattle and the carabao while the
women and the children care for hogs, goats and poultry are more than enough for their daily needs. In fact, livestock are cared for primarily for educational
needs of the children in a family. Many poor families have sent their children to college and are now sending their parents and siblings monthly allotments
as most preferred seaman’s job abroad.
2.2 PASTURE LANDS
As cattle and carabao are grown on a backyard scale, grazing method is either by forced feeding or by grazing in fields and open grasslands. The animal is
tied allowing it to fend for grasses at a radius of more or less 5-10 meters. Otherwise, the grower guides the animal until the animal gets full feeding and tie
the animal down to graze on its own. It is estimated there are 1,144.7438 hectares of pasturelands and open lands in Anini-y. San Francisco has the largest
at 218.1256Ha, San Ramon is next with 130.2999Ha, and Magdalena, Butuan and Igpalge with 90.8291, 76.9772 and 76.6146 hectares, respectively. The
rest ranges from 52.5598 to 6.0483 hectares. Only Poblacion has no pastures. Above data do not include Milagrosa as data is not available.
2.3 EXISTING TECHNOLOGIES
The DA’s technical assistance of holding farmers’ class in the past served as the means by which technology transfer was effected. Thus, many poultry
growers now learn how and are growing relatively bigger-than-backyard poultry that maintains upgraded stocks as broilers or layers. Before, chicken
growing was mainly done with native stocks. These endeavors may soon graduate into medium scale industries to fill at least the local requirements of
Anini-y in terms of eggs and white meat as at the moment these are imported from San Jose or Iloilo livestock farms. Another offshoot of technology transfer
classes for poultry production worth mentioning because of its potential commercial value is on the raising of fighting cocks. Anini-y is noted as one of the
municipalities with many oversea Filipino workers. Its seamen’s past times are cock fighting and are always invited during cockfight derbies. There is always
a local demand for this produce and supply is wanting.
273
3. Fisheries
3.1 KEY FISHERIES DEVELOPMENT AREA
Anini-y has fishing as one of its major industries. At a closer look, the arable lands of the municipality are limited that there is a need to make a strategic
study of the potentials of its water resources, specifically its municipal waters. It is so rich that several Taiwanese fishing fleets and commercial fishing boats
have been apprehended while illegally plying their trade within Anini-y waters. Three cargo trucks deliver to Iloilo fish port daily the catch of local fisherfolks.
3.2 FISHING GROUNDS/ FISHPONDS/ FISH CAGES
Anini-y has no inland water and the Hurao-hurao bangus-fry hatchery is no longer operational but its fishing grounds remains abundant with variety of
fishes. Some of these fishing grounds are “ Baragisan and Ginobatan in Lisub A; Mangadlitan and Turo-turo in Lisub B; Bukaw-bukaw, Kadingin, and
Parangapak in Sagua; and Durolawan, Manolan, Pagirim, and Pasurip in Talisayan to name a few. The senior citizens observed that starting from Marcos’s
time fish catch has started to decline. They still lower fish cages in Bogtong, drift squid jiggers off Hurao-hurao, but, “punot” off Nagarip and Casay gibongan
are no longer viable. Much more, the LGU no longer implements its NIDC-run multi-agency multi-sector program that supervises and maintains the fish
sanctuary at Nogas.
Our fishing boats have a combined total annual catch volume of 804.672 metric tons. The motorized bancas made 92.16% of the total catch or an average
monthly catch of 300 kg per boat; and non-motorized boat averages 18 kg per month for the remaining 7.84%. This data do not include the catch volume
made by illegal caught fishes and those captured by itinerant commercial fishing vessels. Above info also do not segregate fishes that are caught within and
outside of the municipal waters. OMA estimates the beach seine annual output during its 4 months yearly operation could supply all Anini-y residents’ per
capita fish protein requirements for a month. At present has no means of determining the volume of catch by species except for bangus fry as it is monitored
closely by the fisherfolk’s coop and the authorities. Bangus fry catch recorded for the period March-July 2000 by 415 sweepers is about 4,572,928
fingerlings.
274
3.3 FISHERY RESOURCES/ FACILITIES
The passage of the 1991 Local Government Code brought about the establishment of the Nogas Island Development Council (NIDC). This body was
instrumental for the establishment of a 35-hectare fish sanctuary in Nogas Island, which coverage is now expanded to 240 hectares to cover all coastal
barangays. It is intended that fish sanctuaries are also established along its coastline.
Anini-y has 1,053 local fisherfolks, of which 350 are full-timers and 703 part-timers. They represent 5.94 percent of the total population of 17,729 in the
coastal barangays. Actually, this information does not include uplanders that have fishing as their alternative livelihood as they indulge into it as needs
arises. The fishing gears by type and number used by our fisherfolks are 1,053 hook and line units, 79 gill nets, 25 beach seines, 5 bamboo fish cages, 48
squid jiggers, 52 arrows or baslay, 415 sweepers, and 25 other gears that include among others petromax, bolo, and simple “bunit.”
The OMA on its latest survey identified 498 fishing boats in the municipality, of which 206 are motorized and 292 are non-motorized. The fish species
usually caught by these pumpboats are panit, bantala-an, kantorayan, bagis, subingan, baulo, mamsa, lapu-lapu, malit, bisugo, bansi, aloy, etc. On the
other hand, the commercial fishing vessels usually catch panit, kantorayan, aloy, galunggong, bilong-bilong, olandes, marut, seguinia and many others.
As mentioned earlier, the 3 Iloilo fish port-bound fish delivery trucks that haul the daily catch for several Manila-based fish brokers, on their return trip are
loaded with blocks and blocks of ice for the styrofores and consumption of their fishermen-clientele. Individual boat operators stored their daily catch into
this fragile containers boxed in a wooden crate that are easily marked and trans-loaded into the cargo hold of these trucks. As long as the production costs
of these blocks of ice is lower than that produce in Iloilo, any cold storage and fish processing facility to be established in Anini-y will not be profitable.
Other fishery facilities include 2 patrol boats: 1 inboard fiberglass and 1 outboard motor boat, 1 motorbike for mobilization and a set of base radio
communication and handheld radio sets.
275
3.4 OTHER FISHING ACTIVITIES
Myriad of marine resources, mangroves, nesting and hatching place of rare sea turtles and tabon birds can be found throughout the coastline of Nogas but
the surrounding water is also known for colorful coral reefs, fishes and shells. Shell gleaning had for a time become profitable that in one short spell, one
can hardly see sea shells anymore. This activity is now prohibited under the coastal resource management program of the municipality. The cultivation of
algae or seaweed has been mulled over for several years now but after a series of training on technology transfer, a limited number tried it locally.
The Antique Development foundation (ADF) was once very active in its community development effort in Anini-y. It was responsible for the organization of
several people’s organizations that were into bangus fry industry. Before the industry’s downturn, fry collection concession was awarded at a subsidized
cost of P200,000.00 to the Alliance of Cooperatives and People’s Organization in Anini-y (ACOPA). ADF on their part extended assistance on financial
management, interest-free bridge financing, resource accessing for ACOPA and assistance on fry marketing. Once a major source of local revenues,
bangus fry industry is no longer that lucrative. At present, no concessionaire seems interested to join the bid.
3.5 FISHERIES TECHNOLOGY
The people have been observed to acquire bigger lucrative business and motorized boats to enable them to fish on deeper seas as the catch from within
the municipal waters have dwindled and barely could compensate on expenses. The regular fishermen cast their sustainable fishing gear away and turn to
more sophisticated but risky ventures as demands increased. The Cebuano-speaking migrants were encouraged by local folks to live in Anini-y. These
locals are financing their trade for instant increase in earnings. Others are financing them to learn from the Cebuanos who are adept on modern fishing
technologies, both offshore and deep-sea fishing. Another thing, both local and encroachers have resorted to fast-tracking the exploitation of the municipal
fishery resources through poisoning, high-powered lights and similar means but the most destructive of all, through use of explosives, though it has been
severely minimized. Live corals were destroyed and mangroves were cut for fuel and decorative purposes –a lucrative business in Manila and Japan.
276
The beaches of Anini-y are still pristine, although what was once a good swim in Talisayan beach is no longer wholesome as the waters in this area seems
to be oily and flotsam is abounding. Even the shores are littered with cellophane, broken pieces of styrofore and, length of nylon ropes. Such litters are
pronounced around Nogas Island as aftermath of its annual island celebration. It is likewise reported that some cargo and passenger vessels passing by
municipal waters dump their ship waste just between Antique and Iloilo provincial water boundary at San Francisco.
4. Network of Protected Agricultural Areas (NPAAS) or Network of Agricultural Areas for Development (NPAAD)
The Department of Agriculture has identified the areas reserved for agricultural activities to effectively ensure food security and the success of an
agricultural and farmer-oriented development strategy. Agricultural lands classified as protected areas are identified in the Bureau of soils and Water
Management (BSWM) Map of Protected Agricultural Areas, as follows:
a. All irrigated areas and potentially irrigable lands;
b. All alluvial plain lands that are and or can be devoted for food production and are highly suitable for agricultural production as determined by
BSWM;
c. All lands that are sustainable traditional sources of food;
d. All croplands that support the economic scale of production required to sustain the economic viability of existing agricultural infrastructure
and agri-based enterprises in the province or region;
e. All production lands in the low calamity-risk areas that are suitable for the production of economic trees and other cash crops;
f. All agricultural lands that are ecologically fragile and whose conversion will result into serious environmental problems;
277
Figure A2 identifies the actual location of the NPAAs in the municipality and the area covered by barangay. Agricultural lands classified as Protected Areas
are grouped into 3 Levels of Conversion, namely:
I. HIGHLY RESTRICTED –these are the most efficient agricultural land and are the traditional sources of food and cash crops (Codes 1.1,
1.2, 2.1 on BSWM’s Map of NPAAs). These are the most suitable cropland and can be grown to a wide range of crops with minimum to
moderate level of farm management requirement. High investments in infrastructure are usually located on these lands. These include the
irrigated paddy/ terrace ricelands, rainfed paddy ricelands, efficient diversified cropland and presently agro-industrial lands located on the
level to nearly alluvial plain and gently slopping/ terrace lands and the highlands presently planted to or have potential for the production of
high value semi-temperate crops (Codes 2.2, 3.1, 5.1 on BSWM’s Map of NPAAs)
II. MODERATELY RESTRICTED –these are the moderately efficient lands within 8-18% slope presently planted to agricultural crops but
need higher farm management and input levels. Various land characteristics and qualities limit its use to a narrower range of crops and are
more suited for agro-industrial crops. Conversion to non-agricultural use will depend on comparative social benefit-cost analysis vis-à-vis
grasslands and shrub lands within 10% slope with none to slight soil limitation and have potential for agricultural uses. (Codes 3.2, 4.0 on
BSWM’s Map of NPAAs)
III. CONDITIONALLY RESTRICTED -these are lands considered less suitable for agriculture use and more suited for agro-forestry. For
agricultural use, these lands will require a moderate to high level of farm management for sustainability of production. Conversion to non-
agricultural use (built-up area) requires intensive analysis on environmental impact particularly on the stability of the upland and the effects
on the lands situated below. These include grasslands/ shrub lands within 30% slope with slight to moderate soil limitation, existing and
developed pasturelands and fishponds/ salt beds. (Codes 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 on BSWM’s Map of NPAAs)
278
5. CARPable Areas/ Lands
Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) Law provides that all alienable and disposable lands of the public domain devoted to or suitable for
agriculture shall be covered by the CARP, taking into account ecological, developmental and equity considerations. CARP, which land distribution is a major
component, is a comprehensive program encompassing all agricultural lands and the distribution of tenure lands to 3.0 million farmer beneficiaries, the core
population of the Philippine society. Actual tillers of rice and/ or corn lands are awarded title to their tillage if the lands are covered by Presidential Decree
No. 27, in excess of 7 hectares. Agricultural lands covered by Republic Act No. 6657, in excess of 5 hectares regardless of crops, fruit produce and tenurial
arrangement, shall be awarded to farmers and regular farm workers who are landless.
Table A9 determines the CARPable lands/ areas in Anini-y up to the barangay level. The total area covered by the Program under the various Land
Transfer Schemes are: PD 27 - 0.0000 hectares; Settlement – 238.7445 hectares; Government Financing Institution (GFI) –40.8399 hectares; and,
Voluntary Offer to Sell – 7.2302 hectares. These areas can be found only in San Francisco and San Roque.
Aside from lands voluntarily offered by some landowners that are of poor soil quality anyway, that of the San Francisco area was the former Cojuangco
Estate swapped to government lands in Busog Island, Palawan during the Marcos era. It was distributed as settlement lands to farmers in San Francisco,
Nasuli C and Iba. The other area is a foreclosed rain-fed land mortgaged by the Alcalen’s to the Development Bank of the Philippines and are now in the
hands of its previous 28 tenant-tillers secured with Certificates of Land Ownership Award (CLOA). Beneficiaries of the Espeleta’s Estate are farmers from
San Roque and Salvacion.
The Non-Land Transfer Scheme better known as the Leasehold Program involves 252.4966 hectares involving 156 beneficiaries in 15 barangays. Sizable
areas under this program are in Tagaytay and Magdalena constituting 109.7568 hectares or 43.47 % with a total of 61 beneficiary-farmers.

6. Conversion
The DAR Municipal Office thus far has not received any application for conversion of agricultural lands to non-agricultural. However, conversions of
agricultural lands for other uses are very rampant and many have not passed the usual legal process. Aside from the process being cumbersome and
tedious for ordinary residents, many have the notion that the government can not stop them any way as they have no other lot to construct their houses.
Even those land sale transactions, which have to pass the legal process to make the transaction binding, many means that are very temporary are resorted
to in order to circumvent payment of some fees and related charges.
7. Reclassification
Some lands may no longer be subject to reclassification. These are the agricultural lands distributed to agrarian reform beneficiaries, agricultural lands with
a Notice of Acquisition already issued or voluntarily offered for coverage under CARP, and agricultural lands covered by Office of the President
Administrative Order No. 20, series of 1992, declaring these as non-negotiable for conversion. However, there is no such land in the municipality.
8. Agrarian Reform Communities (ARC)14
Nasuli C, Iba, Casay, Casay Viejo and San Francisco were declared as the NICS ARC last 1990. At present, the beneficiary farmers and their families, with other
non-CARP beneficiary individuals have been organized into the NICS Agrarian Reform Beneficiary Multi-purpose Cooperative. This ARB organization is
presently engaged in farm input financing to its members, cooperative store management, livestock growing assistance and limited meat processing.
14
ARC is a geographical area composed of a barangay at the minimum, or a cluster of barangays where there is a critical mass of farmers and farm workers awaiting the full implementation of
agrarian reform. These areas are the manifestation of the joint effort of the CARP Implementing Agencies, NGOs, POs, in bringing about change in the life of the farmer beneficiaries and their
families through increased productivity and income. The ARC Development Strategy will enable to pool all the resources of the implementing agencies in strategic priority areas and/ or rural
growth points in order to deliver support services to the communities where there are substantial numbers of agrarian beneficiaries. Likewise, ARCs shall be the main conduits in carrying out the
Key Production Areas strategy of the Department of Agriculture.

DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND FUTURE SCENARIOS

B.1 Agriculture
B.1.1 MARGINAL AGRICULTURAL LANDS
Municipal data shows that Anini-y has 86% of its land area with slope of more than 15%. Based on this, only about 14% of the municipal lands is ideal for
agricultural crop production where modern farm machinery maybe effectively used. Yet, data shows that almost 60% of the total 4860 hectares arable lands
have been used already for production of six major products. Of the lands devoted to crop production, 94.364% (2968.0823 out of 3,145.3523 ha.) of this is
non-irrigated. Most of these lands classified as Alimodian Sandy Loam is observed to be highly porous, which is not good for paddy rice culture.
Furthermore, the area experiences long dry months. It is considered one of the driest in the region, if not the driest.
The area potential can still be maximized despite the narrowness of the town’s flat areas and limited suitable land for crop production. The challenge is on
the identification of the combination of right crops and the right technology that is most acceptable to the people.
B.1.2 LOW LEVEL OF AGRICULTURAL CROP PRODUCTION
a. Average palay yield from 91.29% of the area devoted to rice farming is only 32.00 cavans per hectare. Only 8.71% is able to yield 160 cavans/ha.
Mono-crop pattern is prevalent as only 16.90% of the rice field is planted to corn or other crops during off season of rice production. For 2005, data
on rice supply (2,002.91MT at 65% recovery) and demand (2,585.77MT) showed an average deficit of about 582.86MT or 14,571.50 cavans of rice.
285
b. Corn production is 0.50 tons per hectare, which is very, very low at 11.11% of the 4-5 tons per hectare ideal corn production. As the main purpose is
forage, corn production becomes a complimentary activity to livestock raising.
c. Mature coconut bearing trees are rampantly cut for building purposes and production is dwindling. Over the years, there’s no extensive and
systematic replanting of coconut. Inter-cropping in cocoland is still wanting. Cocolands comprising 6.15 % (406.9000 ha) of the total municipal land
remain unutilized for other crops except for coconut.
d. Vegetable production is also limited. Anini-y is known for importing supply of vegetables outside of the municipality. Yet, there are areas still that
can be developed as they are potential for specific vegetable production.
B.1.3 ENCROACHMENT OF RICE FARMING INTO CRITICAL WATERSHED SITES
About 440Ha upland areas are recovered from rice farming. Awareness has slowly crept into many uplanders’ psyche on sustainable agriculture practices. If
intensive use of these lands had continued, more water depletion shall be expected. To date, only 5.51% of the agricultural lands is irrigated because of
inadequate water sources. Critical watershed areas should be delineated and fully protected to ensure protection of whatever water resources are left.
B.1.4 INADEQUATE INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT FACILITIES AND INITIATIVES FOR AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENTS
a. Limited local fund has been invested for agricultural development. Despite the widely available pastureland and the much known experience of
farmers in livestock limited support has been given to livestock development. The on-going activities in Nasuli C, Iba, Casay and San Francisco
(NICS) areas can very well augur a special agricultural growth in the municipality if given due attention and support.
b. Year-round market access of uplands remains desirable. Sixteen (16) barangays have 41 districts/ puroks far from these access roads affecting 903
farming households or 1/4 of all households. In many cases, agricultural products are carried manually by farming women and children to the
market.
286
c. Information access is inadequate as training fund assistance and credit facilities initially provided by the municipal government were not accessed.
d. Agricultural institution is far from Anini-y and access is difficult for the community, especially the youth. Transfer of technology is inadequate.
Farming is still rice-focused in spite of several other agri-products opportunities that can be produced in the municipality, e.g.: mango and banana.
B.1.5 SILTED IRRIGATION SYSTEM
Irrigation waters can supply the second cropping needs. However, irrigation structures silt easily causing periodic levee breach/damage, erosion and, partial
maximize use of irrigated land. CIS need regular de-clogging and concrete ditches to improve water delivery. Frequent silting indicates the critical state of
watersheds. To date, the CIS watershed status ranges from eroded to fair watershed condition. Only about 7% of the area devoted to crop production is
irrigated. There is a need for municipal-wide area identification whereby small-scale irrigation facilities may be constructed economically to boost production.
B.1.6 DECREASING PRODUCTIVE CAPACITY OF AGRICULTURAL SOIL
The trend of rice production per hectare over 5 years is increasing in a negligible rate in spite increasing use of farm inputs. Over all, the farmer is at the
losing end, to increase production one has to invest higher for fertilizer. This further degrades the soil’s productive capacity. Planting of mongo as an
alternate crop after rice will enable the soil to maintain its nitrogen-fixing capacity.
B.1.7 NON MAXIMIZATION OF AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES AS PROFITABLE VENTURE
a. Livestock raising remains at the subsistence level. Successful livestock raising remains small scale just enough to answer the immediate cash
requirement for education and health. San Francisco has the best potential with 218.1256 hectares of pastureland. San Ramon is next with
130.2999 hectares. Magdalena, Butuan and Igpalge have 90.8291, 76.9772 and 76.6146 hectares, respectively. The rest ranges from 52.5598 to
6.0483 hectares. Planting of peanuts shall be considered not on the cash value of the nuts but on the leaves as feeds to livestock.
287
b. Poultry industry has grown relatively bigger-than-backyard poultry with upgraded stocks as broilers or layers. However, some of the ventures have
stopped operation due to cash liquidity. Raising of fighting cocks has potential commercial value, has local demand and supply is wanting.
c. The estimated 50 hectares available for mango plantation in a focused approach and correct technology application would surely boost the farmers’
productivity level and income earning capacity.
d. Furthermore, the estimated 100 hectares suitable for banana production could be another booster. To date, banana production is 10 metric tons/
hectare. The full production potential of and profitability of banana is yet to be achieved. Banana farming venture must be coupled with future plans
for forward economic activities, e.g., processing.
B.1.8 RAMPANT ILLEGAL CONVERSION OF AGRICULTURAL LANDS TO RESIDENTIAL LANDS
Observation indicates rampant conversion of agricultural land for other uses. The legal process for conversion of agri-lands to non-agricultural is not
observed because the ordinary residents felt it is cumbersome and tedious. They also have the notion that government can not stop them any way as they
have no other lot to construct their houses. Irrigated and potentially irrigable lands shall be protected from being converted into other uses.
B.2 Fishery
B.2.1 INADEQUATE MONITORING OF FISH CATCH WITHIN THE MUNICIPALITY
a. Fish delivery from Anini-y to Iloilo fish port is regular and done daily. Available data do not segregate fishes caught within municipal
waters or outside nor specify volume of catch by species including bangus fry that was once monitored closely by the fisherfolk’s coop
and authorities.
288
b. Fishery supply and demand showed deficit in fish production in the current year. Recent survey reported a decline on fish catch by non-
motorized boats while fish production of motorized bancas has increased. This increase is attributed to the increased number of
fishermen that own motorized boats. Seemingly, fishing has been pushed further the sea that necessitates owning motorize boats.
B.2.2 ENCROACHMENT OF COMMERCIAL FISHING VESSLES IN THE MUNICIPAL WATERS OF ANINI-Y AND OTHER ILLEGAL PRACTICES
a. Frequent apprehensions of Taiwanese fleets and commercial trawls fishing within municipal waters these past 2 years are yielding
positive results. But, encroachment continues on much less scale and our fisherfolks within municipal waters have to contend with
these intruders.
b. There is no data on catch volume of illegally caught fishes and those captured by itinerant commercial fishing vessels. Aside from
encroachment other exploitative practices are poisoning, use of high-powered lights and illegal cutting of mangroves.
B.2.3 SEAWATER POLLUTION
Talisayan beach is no longer wholesome for swimming as oils and flotsam are abounding. Shores are littered with cellophane, broken pieces of styrofore
and, length of nylon ropes. Litters are also found around Nogas Island as aftermath of its annual island celebration and likewise because of garbage coming
from the mainland and passing ships. There is a reported dumping of garbage and wastes by some cargo and passenger vessels passing by municipal
waters between Antique-Iloilo water boundary near San Francisco.
289
B.3 Projected Requirements
B.3.1 SUPPLY AND DEMAND PROJECTION
Table A10 shows Year 2000 yields and the production/ supply projection of 6 major agricultural products. Since Table A1 data do not capture the distribution
of where the decrease in upland rice areas had shifted, the Year 2000 data on “Other Crops” is used for 2006-10 considering that other crops may not be
bearing fruits within the 5 year period, except for banana. The computation assumed no expansion for irrigated lands, production output changes to be
insignificant/ almost the same for CY 2002 to 2006 and average yield is projected to increase starting year 2007 with irrigated rice fields from 3.3 up to
3.6MT by 2010. Likewise, rain-fed fields will remain the same in land area but production output will start to increase by 2007 with 3.1MT per hectare up to
3.20 MT/hectare by 2010. Upland rice areas will not be allowed to expand and efforts will be exerted to bring it down (less by 440 hectares especially those
that encroached into the watershed) but its annual production output will be increased from 1.22MT in 2007 to 1.30MT in 2010. All increases in yield or
compensations in the reduction of areas tilled will be brought about by improved varieties, inputs and techniques, such as in corn.

Other assumptions are:
• Corn and coconut areas to remain the same. More intensive planting in these areas will bring about increase in vegetable production.
• 10 hectares expand banana plantation in 2007; another 20 hectares in 2008; 30 hectares more by 2009; and, the last 40 hectares by 2010
complete the available 100 hectares for banana production.
• Past and recent initiatives in mango production will start to improve production of this fruit by 2008. Further increases will occur by 2010.
To compute the volume of fish that remained in the municipality and consumed by its residents the following are assumed:
• All 18-kilograms catch of the 292 non-motorized boats are sold and/or consumed locally amounting to 63.072MT.
• Annual beach seine estimated output is equivalent to 1 month protein per capita requirements of all residents.
• Commercial fishers stay at least 4 months; at least 150 kilos of fish 3 times/ wk are unloaded from these boats as barter or goodwill to
locals.
291
• 206 motorized boats with 300 kg average catch monthly; 4 trips a month on 8 fine weather months, twice the remaining months; at least 3
man-crew; each crew gets an average of 2 kilos of fish as individual family consumption share; laborers at least get 3 kilos share for
assistance extended; “pantings” buy an average of 6 kilos for local vending; and some “mananabo” buy an average total volume of 5 kg.
Estimated fish vol. consumed locally = fish catch from beach seine, non-motorized and motorized boats + commercial fishing boats’ goodwill catch
= 20657 x 54/12 + 63.072MT + [206 {(3 x 2) + 3 + 6 + 5} {(4 x 8)+(2 x 4)} kg] + (150 x 3 x 52/3)
= 92.957 + 63.072MT + 164.800MT + 7.800MT = 328.629MT

B.4 Demand Projection for Agricultural Products 3528.1
B.4.1 DEMAND VS. SUPPLY
On Cereal & Cereal Products, present rice supply of 2002.91MT (from 3,081.40 MT palay production x 65% recovery) augmented by 31.92MT (49.10MT
corn x 65% used as cereals and recovery) is short of about 550.94MT or 13,773.50 cavans for the present demand of 2,585.77MT. By 2010, this deficit will
go down into 399.52MT or 9,988 cavans. Anini-y must avail of the newly introduced hybrid rice varieties for the irrigated farms to cover-up for the supply
deficit.

On Fish, Meat and Poultry, supply totals to 712.359MT from 328.629MT fish + 383.73MT meat and poultry. This is very far from the present demand of
1126.06MT for a total deficit of 413.701MT. Assuming the same support, approach and effort and unless something is done on the practice of exporting
most of the fattened livestock and locally caught fishes and unbridled entry of commercial trawls, our fish, meat and poultry actual demand deficit will
expand into 460.301MT by 2010.
293
On Fruits, present municipal supply from banana and mango are 335.00MT banana and 150.00MT mango respectively for a total of 485MT
fruits. This excludes other local fruits such as “lomboy, langka, bayabas, kapayas,” etc. This is short by 98.88MT out of the present
demand requirements of 98.88MT fruits. By 2010, Anini-y will enjoy a surplus of 291.95MT from just these 2 fruits if present plans are
pursued.
On Vegetables, current demand of 813.27MT is very much beyond supply output of 7.50MT of locally produced vegetables as these are planted
for family consumption only. Supply projection of 12MT is negligible compared to 846.92MT needed by year 2010. Demands from
vegetable growing areas outside of Anini-y will definitely increase and Anini-y must have to do some hard thinking and evaluation of its
present food security approach.
On other nutritional needs like Starchy Roots and Tubers, Dried Beans, Nuts & Seeds, and Eggs: the present supplies are very small
compared to the demands. Future supply can not be projected as data on production volume of locally grown crops that may supply
such needs are not available. The incoming and out-going of these products should be monitored and analyzed, as soon as possible.
On Sugars and Syrups, municipal demand may be supplied by using the muscovado sugar being a health food.
On Milk and Milk Products, local culture on this regard does not cultivate the use of this available technology in spite of the number of heads of
available livestock for this purpose. Future shortage will cause a heavy toll on the pockets of the have-nots segment of the population.
294
VISION: Vibrant Anini-y agri-fishery communities, in “kapit-bisig” with energized local bureaucracy managing sustainable and viable endeavors

296
D1. Policy Recommendations and Strategies
D.1.1 AGRI-FISHERY DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES AND FUNDS
a. The municipal government as the major stakeholder in its agricultural development should invest substantially and should be financing its own
locally designed programs that specifically ensures food and ecological security.
b. Implementation of pertinent fishery laws and regulations on commercial fishers encroachment, marine resource pollution and other illegal practices
should solicit active involvement of the fisherfolk through their BFARMCs to make the effort community-based and sustainable.
c. Irrigated and potentially irrigable lands in 14% of the municipal lands that is ideal for effective use of modern farm machinery should be conserved
and protected from being converted to other uses.
D.1.2 FOOD SECURITY
Fish export volume, including those netted by commercial fishers should be regulated by the establishment of fish quota for domestic sale and
institute institute measure to ensure meat, poultry and dairy supply to address the nutritional needs of the residents.
D.1.3 CRITICAL AREA PROTECTION
Critical watershed areas should be delineated and fully protected and recovered from rice farming encroachment.
D.1.4 CROP PRODUCTION
a. Grains
297
– New hybrid varieties (the 12 tonner type) should be acquired and made accessible to selected irrigated land owners/ local seed growers to
boost grains production and close the gap between cereals and cereal products supply vs. demand.
– Organic farming and other approaches to sustainable agriculture should be re-introduced to the farmers by the establishment of demo farms
– In areas where mono-crop pattern is prevalent, a strategic study should be conductive for corn growing as cereal, feeds, forage, and cash crop
(young/ sweet corn) to attain its full potential.
b. Coconut
– Intensified crop production, highly selective cutting and systematic hybrid coconut replanting should be promoted in cocolands.
c. Vegetable
– Vegetable growing projects should be immediately launched in partnership with schools and the community to boost local production and be
intensified in areas potential for specific vegetable to close the wide gap between vegetable supply vs. demand.
d. Banana and Mango
– Full production potential of and profitability of high value crops, like banana and mango should be widely promoted and extensively supported to
achieve high economic return and improve family income. The thrust should be coupled with future plans for forward economic activities, e.g.,
processing and other ancillary industries.
D.1.5 PRODUCTION OF OTHER CROPS
a. Other crops that enable the soil to maintain its nitrogen-fixing capacity, such as Mongo should be promoted as an alternate crop after rice. Planting
of peanuts should be considered not on the cash value of the nuts but on the leaves as feeds to livestock.
298
D.1.6 LIVESTOCK, POULTRY AND DAIRY
a. The LGU should actively assist in the collective marketing of the agricultural products until the farmer’s marketing cooperative is functional to
achieve higher income for the farmers.
D.1.7 INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT
a. The LGU should aggressively pursue irrigation of potentially irrigable areas and provide active support in improving irrigation water delivery.
b. Number of farming households, product volume and role of women/children in agriculture should be the priority consideration in locating farm to
market road construction.
D.1.8 TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER
a. The LGU should actively ensure appropriate technology transfer and focus its approach in the identification of the acceptable right crops
combination and right technology application in increasing the farmers’ productivity level and income earning capacity.

A. PROFILE AND ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING SITUATION
To better lay down the implementation plan for Tourism15 in the Municipality of Anini-y, basic considerations are taken into account to paint the comprehensive picture
of the present tourism potential. The process begins with identification of tourist spots/ attractions in Anini-y along with the area of each tourist spot, facilities
and services offered; the frequency and number of visitors; and, possible income generated. Data on existing traditional/ cultural activities are also identified
and analyzed. An analysis of the eco-tourism potential is also discussed as its benefits cut across the other related information.
1. Inventory of Tourist Spots/ Attractions
Tourism resources can be characterized at two levels: the first level of tourist resources are the natural and cultural characteristics indigenous to an area; the
second level are the attractions, activities and facilities needed to draw, entertain and accommodate the tourists and travelers to the area. Areas that offer both
should be high in the priority list of tourism development.
Anini-y is one of the towns of Antique that may be considered as having bright future for tourism development in the province, if not in the region. The
municipality is endowed with tourism resources characterized as natural attractions and a cultural practice indigenous to the area. It has started its quest for
becoming the prime tourism destination in Antique through the development of the Sira-an sulfuric springs into a government-run resort. Other attractions are
Nogas Island’s eco-tourism come-ons, the centenary and oldest Spanish Church in the province and other local ruins, the potential lure for adventure sports
15
Tourism as a purposive travel for cultural, educational and leisurely interaction, a defined tourism plan for any locality will surely bring about enhanced undertaking in the midst of diversity.
328
through the proposed Cresta del Gallo’s camp and hideaway, underwater beauties of Anini-y. The LGU aims to integrate these “eco-tourism polygon” into a
blockbuster source of pride and local revenues via the “URUKAY” Festival.

a. CENTURY OLD SPANISH CHURCH
“It took a man of strong character, Fray Geronimo Vaquerin to manage and build the most enduring physical project of Anini-y -the colonial baroque
church. The men worked on the walls and carried the heavy loads, women and children brought the needed sand and stones to the job site while
hermanas volunteered for food procurement and preparation. This project affirmed the fact that the people of Anini-y can accomplish outstanding feat,
only if everyone contributes to the effort as much as they could.” Thus, should read the epithet for this pride of Anini-y. This enduring legacy of the
329
historic past is conducive to educational and cultural experience for the tourists and travelers, both local and foreign. This massive coral white building
has an outside measure of 60x40meter and a three-storey “campanario” on a 10x10meter foundation.
Its 4 brass bells that arrived from Europe in 1895 are all broken and no longer toll for the people to gather but no activity and facility are needed to draw
sightseers to this site as the structure itself is the attraction. It is the only church of Spanish vintage still existing in the province. As one of Antique’s
oldest, the building has withstood earthquakes and outbursts of man and nature. The century-old Spanish Church is located at the catholic plaza, which
is situated at the heart of the Poblacion like most of the community plazas established during the Spanish Period. The plaza amidst a well manicured
lawn and lined with various shrubs intermingled with timber and fruit trees covers an area of more than a hectare.
The designer of the world heritage church in Miag-ao, Iloilo was the same designer for this baroque church. Likewise, it was master crafted by the
same craftsmen from Igbaras who led the building of the Miag-ao edifice. The 1-meter thick side and back walls are made of coral stones stacked
above each other and held together by a special blend of “apog” and straw. The facade, massive columns, and blocks where figures and designs were
sculpted are specially hewn blocks from big coralline stone.
The Poblacion is very accessible from the regional center or the provincial capital. Seven local buses plying the Iloilo Anini-y route provide daily
transport service to the area. While a lot of improvements and concreting works have been done to the Anini-y–Tiolas Section of the national road,
local visitors from Iloilo Province would travel more leisurely if those portions that remain unpaved are regularly maintained.
In 1999, there were 12 public utility jeepneys that ply daily the San Jose-Anini-y route, but as of this writing the number has increased to 22 units.
Moreover, 53 tricycles operate within the municipality and are also available even at nighttime on special arrangement. The DPWH has preserved the
Guinsang-an–Anini-y road section as a first-class gravel road. This paved the way for many tourists whose number and comings remained
330
unrecorded and some unnoticed, to visit the site directly and without passing the local government office. Observably, there are at least 3 educational
tours to this place in a year. The local church officials do not charge anything for these visits, but the visitors must make arrangement with the priest for
ocular walk inside of the church.
b. ANINI-Y UNDERWATER GARDENS
Anini-y has the third longest coastline province-wide. The whole stretch from San Francisco to Bayo Grande and around the island of Nogas is a sight to
behold for underwater enthusiasts. It is aptly called the “underwater gardens.” Old fisherfolks of Anini-y identified about 961 hectares, more or less of live
“bahura” or “takut” located within the municipal waters. Three hundred hectares can be found around Nogas Island, 280 hectares in the vicinity of San
Roque and Hurao-hurao, 200 hectares in San Francisco, 130 hectares in Lisub B and Bayo, and 51 hectares in Iba. Not far-off Hurao-hurao is the breeding
ground for mother “sabalo.” This natural bounty must be protected, cared of and preserved while being appreciated.
The underwater gardens are very rich in marine and fishery resources. The DENR’s Marine Resource Assessment Report of the Proposed Nogas
Island Marine Sanctuary of June 1997 concluded: “from the overall data on benthic life forms, prevailing status of the reefs surrounding the
proposed sanctuary is ‘very good’ with total live coral cover of 73.64% including soft corals. The same report indicated there is an excellent
live coral cover (79.40%) on the northern tip of the island and is ideal for marine sanctuary establishment. It also noted there is a very good
assemblage development based on computed development index. Divers from Boracay who happened to take a plunge underwater not far
from the island has commented that it is much, much better than where they have been diving. Even the Divers Association of the
Philippines has marked the area in their map.
331
Said DENR study identified 4 species of sea grasses in the waters off Nogas, out of the 17 known species in the world. Their inventory includes
Cymodocea rotunda, Thallasia hemprichii, Halophila ovalis and, Halodule pinifolia that covers 31.05% of the area surveyed. This bed of
sea grasses promotes grazing, spawning and breeding of marine organisms such as but not limited to fishes, seashells and other
invertebrates. This marine vegetation also protects marine habitat not to be destroyed, protect mangrove communities from strong wave
movements, creates marine biotic diversity, and promotes nutrients necessary for the growth and reproduction of marine grazing
organisms.
The diving area is also rich in seaweeds. About 100 hectares or more of seaweeds are found in Nogas Island, San Roque, Iba, San Francisco and
Lisub B. Moreover, there are 21 identified species of seaweeds in the area from 3 known phyla.
Another source of education and entertainment to enjoy while diving down the sea are major commercial species of fishes found in the dive area.
There are 118 reef fishes identified belonging to 27 families with a total of 5,219 individuals or a high fish biomass of 246.54 grams per
square meters per the 1997 survey. Among these are tuna (skip jack, yellow fin and aloy), shark, subingan, bansi, bisugo, lapu-lapu,
marut, galonggong, baulo, mamsa, dilis, milk fish and other pelagic fish. The presence of schooling juvenile reef fishes influenced the high
fish biomass in the reef of the proposed marine sanctuary.
There are also minor sea products other than fish. These are octopus, sihi, bulalo, buskay, sikad-sikad, samong, balat and, manlut.
The area is very accessible with the municipal fiberglass boat and the patrol boat. These dive sites are actually unmanaged that divers from Iloilo
and those that have made arrangement with enterprising individuals in San Jose go straight to these dive sites without coordinating with
the local authorities. Many of these divers sleep at the cottages in Sira-an where they register not as divers but just plain tourist passing-by.
332
c. CRESTA DEL GALLO
Straddling across the Iba and San Francisco farthest west is Punta Nasog with its “Cresta del Gallo” – cited in secondary school’s history books by
Gregorio Zaide as the only natural scenic spot in the region. It is a landmark of granite rock with spires shaped like a rooster’s crown. The mountain is
believed to be rich in mineral deposit. Towering over the national roadside the silvery brown mountain covered more or less an expanse of 21
hectares. There is barely an activity on this place aside from small group picnics. The place is “untouched” as no development had been done to the
area and there There is no room, lodging and food to speak of.
Cresta del Gallo offers a potential site for rock climbing, mountain trekking and then camping at its summit where the view is breathtaking. When
developed, the management though, must have tents for rent. Its rocky walls and spires invite adventurers to be climbed and its apex named. Until
now, nobody has conquered it. Again, the management must have mountain climbing facilities and equipment for this activity.
The future hideaway is 78 kilometers from Iloilo City and 52 kilometers from San Jose –the capital town of Antique. Foreign tourist who happened to
passed by the road section from Iba to San Francisco (about 2 kilometers before the site from Iloilo) averred that the area offers a view more scenic
than the French Reviera. Along this section is the former administration center of the Department of Agrarian Reform that has been left rotting and
unattended. When the area is turned over to the local government, this facility is very convenient to become the administration center of this proposed
adventure camp and hideaway. At the back of this center is a cove that offers a place for very private swimming and spear fishing. Not very far from
this, is a 5-hectare rolling and undulating public land very ideal for hosting even regional scout camping.
Along this road one can find also the unique bridge without river as it spans the chasm caused by wave action on the rocks. Another wonder it holds is
that fresh water gushes out of the sea bed rock under the bridge. Barely 50 meters from this is a 100 meter plunge down to the sea where up to now,
nobody dares to explore, really very ideal for deep-sea diving enthusiasts. However, only when this dusty road section from part of Iloilo to this site is
paved with concrete will tourists from other province visit this natural wonder.
333
d. NOGAS ISLAND
Anyone talking of Anini-y will never miss the mention of the 64-hectare Nogas Island. It is 1.5 kilometers away from mainland Poblacion and is
accessible by motorized and non-motorized bancas. This is about the same distance from Siraan. Sea travel will take 10-15 minutes
depending on the capacity of the motor engine of the pump boat. The municipal government is presently maintaining a fiberglass boat and
a patrol boat for easy access and year round availability. It will take anyone one hour, more or less, to walk around the irregular oblong-
shaped island.
By virtue of a presidential decree Nogas became a naval reserve and is used to be under the care of the Philippine Coast Guard. However, RA
7160 of 1991 provides the legal basis for the municipal government to lay its claim to the island. Notwithstanding, the said claim is still
pending Presently, its control is under the Department of Transportation and Communication where the coast guard services had been
transferred. At the middle of the island is a lighthouse that is maintained by 2 PCG employees. These persons are also responsible for
safeguarding Nogas.
This tourist facility belongs to both the first and the second level of tourism resource. But the coming and going of tourists to the island remain to be
log as there is no administration center here. There is no tourism facility in the island except the station house for the lighthouse keeper
and a cistern for rainwater, which are off limits to travelers. In most cases, only the helper will meet the visitors at the beach. A pathway
completely under a canopy of “calachuchi” and lined with coral rocks leads to this place from the “durungkaan” or embarkation point. A
lighthouse that will take – steps up to its viewing deck stands near the station house. The lighthouse by itself is an attraction as it is solar
powered –a non-conventional source of energy and environment friendly. However, the visitors are not allowed to stay at the island after
5:00 p.m. it being a military reserve.
334
Surrounding the island is a white beach and a wide continental shelf of coral reefs. This used to be the “minting plant” for shell money by Datu
Marikudo due to different species of seashells and mollusks abounding in the area. As such, it was then heavily guarded. At the closing decade of
the last century, the island teemed with birds and verdant trees. Six identified families of mangrove are found in Nogas Island. These are
mangrove trees that belong to families rhizophoraceae, axicenniaceae, sonneratiaceae, lythraceae, myrtaceae and meliaceae.
There are also 32 species of birds inhabiting Nogas namely black-naped tern, tern plovers, sandpipers, common sandpipers, greenshank, green-
becked heron, cattle egret, curlew, white-collared kingfisher, river kingfisher, brown shrike, pitta, barn shallow, house martin, pipit, common
coucal, pied chat, tree sparrow, chestnut manikin, olive-becked sun bird, plain-throated sun bird, Malaysian fantail, Philippine turtle dove,
Philippine bulbul, yellow-vented bulbul, Philippine glossy starling, and pink-necked green.
The local tabon, a flightless bird that used to lay their big eggs in the island is on the verge of extinction as it could be hardly seen anymore in the
island. The sea turtle or pawikan that likewise used to make their nests in the fine sands of the island are rarely seen prowling around the
island.
The LGU is presently implementing a Nogas Island Development Council (NIDC) run multi-agency and multi-sector CRM program. It is designed to
conserve and preserve the bio-diversity of Nogas Island and the rest of municipal waters, protect the rare and endangered species and their habitats,
provide areas for: research on environment and ecology; training and education; and tourism and recreation. It aims to enhance proper utilization of
marine resources, maintain maximum sustainable yield of the sustenance fisher folks, and increase people’s productivity and income. The water
surrounding the island is protected as a conservation area. Thus, no fishing activity is allowed. For study of the sea bed much of the coral reefs
surrounding the island have been destroyed by destructive fishing method. Thus, to give time to the coral reefs to regenerate only scuba diving is
allowed as this place is said to be ideal for this recreation activity.
335
e. SIRA-AN HOT SPRING AND HEALTH RESORT
The Siraan Hot Spring at Barangay Nato is another natural tourist spot in Anini-y that is around 1.5 kilometer from the Poblacion. A 1 meter
square by half meter deep basin, more or less, collects the warm sulfuric water that profusely gushes out from solid rock crevices for
hundreds of years believed to date back the Pre-Spanish times. Here, generations bathe themselves to be refreshed by the warm spring
water said to possess curative elements to skin diseases. Currently, a concrete semi-circular perimeter fence delineates the 6,012 square
meter resort where a junior-size contemporary swimming pool and several bathtubs were built to receive the warm water channeled from
the original, small ancient tub.
Frequent visits by foreigners and local tourists spur its development into a complex. It has 8 bamboo-built shed houses and one concrete
shed. There is also a permanent structure for toilets and shower rooms provided with fresh water. On the second floor of this amenity is a
one door “cabana” with sala cum dining area. It has a quarter with a double bed, its own toilet and cooking-washing area –ala town house
and is best for more intimate stay.
Alongside the solid rocks is a growing protrusion, which is believed to be an inactive volcano. The surroundings are being landscaped to
create an aura of pleasantness. Beside the “volcano” is a reception hall that serves as the entrance to the site. This doubles as the
administration office of the resort for here stays the personnel running the complex. A private restaurant on a lease contract with the local
government serves food and drinks in the area. A pavilion that can accommodate 50-60 persons is the latest additional structure built for
conferences and meetings. From time to time, weeding reception or debut celebration is held in this facility for a fee. Another venue for
conference but is suited more for training of medium sized class is also available beside this pavilion. An 11-room guesthouse offers very
cheap accommodation for a couple. Furthermore, a duplex rest house is best suited for groups composed of boys and girls or a family with
couple who likes to sleep apart from the children.
336
From the registry of entrants to the Siraan Hot Spring there are about an average of 22,287 visitors that enjoy the scenic beauty and other
services of the resort. These visitors are usually coming from Iloilo and other towns of Antique, aside from local guests from the various
barangays of Anini-y. Siraan is more or less 42.5 kilometers from San Jose. An 88-kilometer trip from Iloilo City would take around two
hours. About 20 kilometers of the trip traverse the dusty portion of the road network and 7 kilometers of this is somewhat bumpy. This road
network connects Anini-y to Iloilo City and the rest of the Province of Antique. About the same length of dusty road will be encountered by
anyone from San Jose when going to Sira-an but the ride is smoother as the road section better maintained. Based on
the record of the municipal government an average annual income of P387,707.50 is earned as gate receipts and rental fees for the use of
its facilities such as: entrance fee, rental of cottage, pavilion and rest houses/rooms, and user’s fee for bathing in the swimming pools.
In a nutshell, Siraan Hot Spring is considered the signature tourist spot of Anini-y. Anyone who goes to Anini-y in a moment of leisure and
escapade from daily routine would surely find herself-himself with but one reason – spending time for a warm dip at Siraan Hot Spring.
2. Traditional/ Cultural Activities
a. URUKAY FESTIVAL
Anini-y has a long cultural history to speak of. The place where the present municipality is established was according to anthropologists
and cultural history writer was once peopled by the Igneine tribe and believed to be Marikudo’s. When the Bornays came they brought with
them their religion and traditions. Some of these cultural practices are still observed by some families presumed to have “sorondon” or
such a tradition. These practices are captured in movements and dances very endemic to Anini-y. Volume IV of the Philippine Book of
Music and Dances details 3 indigenous dances from this municipality. These are: the Liki -a courtship dance, the Sorhano –a betrothal
dance, and the Urukay –a wedding dance.
337
As proof of this, certain clan has its own lead babaylan or native priest who presides during family rituals. These rituals aspire and pray for fertility, peace
and prosperity for the couple and the family. Since these themes also embody the aspiration of the people of Anini-y the planners and cultural enthusiasts
of Anini-y integrated the 3 “sayaw” or movements into one continuous dance depicting a story line, which has evolving into the municipal Urukay Festival. It
has since then integrates the issues on the unsustainable use of our productive land and sea resources and the depletion of its bearing capacity resulting
to decreasing yield and harvest. It has the central and legendary figures of Anini and Nogas and the kataw representing the environmental world.
As its first step towards addressing present realities, the LGU holds periodic local food and industrial promotions and participates in trade exhibitions to
promote investments in the municipality’s rich natural and scenic resources by local and outside investors. This fair showcases Anini-y’s best food and
agricultural products, handicrafts and other local resources that when sold raw or processed, could augment the people’s income to afford them to buy
foods that are not found/ available in their farms. This product promotion activity is hoped to bring to the people’s attention the state of our resources vis-a-
vis our activities as a response to the present crisis, food security and poverty alleviation, and quest for progress.
Another step is to harness Anini-y’ rich marine and fishery resources, its human resources (among the most literate and skilled in Antique) and its over-
sea workers’ money deposits in banks that are not invested in the municipality. This festival therefore, intends to lure local capitalists and other
businesses to start small and medium scale industries in Anini-y or possible ventures in eco-tourism.
b. NOGAS ISLAND FIESTA
Nogas Island is quite frequented during summer. It has become a local tradition for the people of Anini-y to come to the island a day after the
town’s religious fiesta. It has become an imposition upon their selves to bring to the island their fiesta guests for a one-day frolic, drinking
338
and beach partying. Each group brings their packed “baons” usually food prepared for the fiesta but was not consumed. This activity
becomes an opportunity for family or clan reunion, at the least, a class reunion. It has assumed a community religious festival undertone
when an annual mass and a fluvial procession around the island were introduced more than a decade ago. The island could well serve as
the take off point for a festival or a sports event like triathlon considering that it fulfills the distance required, aside from the swim being an
island crossing contest.
3. Ecotourism16
The aforesaid “Anini-y Tourism Polygon” to get the proper government support must be officially declared as an eco-tourism destination. It
possesses 8 of the 9 requirements to be qualified as one:
10. Anini-y is “off the beaten track.” Commercial tourists do not frequent the area and tourism business is LGU-operated. It could easily become a
community-operated venture.
11. Cresta del Gallo is a very natural attraction and is very tempting for adventure: ideal for camping, rock climbing, hiking, trekking, horseback
riding, and game fishing. It has an aura of enchantment. Its underwater and on-land caves are unexplored. The road leading to it from Iloilo is a
bonus panorama including the fantastic vista atop the mountain spires. It is very close to a historical landmark, the Ten Datus from Borneo
landing site. Nogas and Sira-an offer placid waters for water sports and skiing. Between Nato and San Ramon is a mountain spring that could
be tapped as mountain resort and as another stop over point during mountain trekking and horseback riding. Mt. Aliwliw could be another
stopover. Taken as a whole, the polygon could become a fantastic Triathlon Gaming area.
16
Ecotourism is an environmentally sound tourism activity in a given ecosystem yielding socio-economic benefits and enhancing natural and cultural diversity conservation. It is traveling with
particular attention to nature’s wonders and leaving them as you found them. It is basically tourism that contributes to conservation of the world’s natural resources and cultural heritage thru
minimum environmental stress and sustainable development. Without careful planning, the carrying capacity of an area could easily be exceeded, especially in places that are quite accessible from
crowded metropolitan areas. Cutting down of trees and disappearance of mangroves to give way to tourism infrastructure damages the ecosystem thereby cutting off the life system of the
environment. As everyone maximizes his harvest of commonly owned resource through unregulated gathering of shells, materials from threatened wildlife species and tourist trade its depletion
becomes irreversible.
339
12. Nogas Island is environmentally rich in terms of number of flora and fauna that includes some endemic species and endangered wildlife.
13. The underwater treasures at Punta Bontog and the reef surrounding Nogas Island is threatened and may be destroyed by the intrusion of
commercial fishing vessels, their dragnets and their trawls.
14. Nogas Island, Gurong-gurong Creek, Lubay-lubay Creek, Puti Falls and Cresta del Gallo are part of the local legend on the Barter of Panay.
Hurao-hurao Island is part of the Humadapnun Epic. These are cultural attractions embodied in the provincial Binirayan Festival. Anini-y
Catholic Church is still the only “standing” church of Spanish vintage and is the Antique’s oldest at more than a century old. Anini-y has 3
endemic dances that are needs the assistance to be revived being part of the families’ tribal rituals and traditions. Pasungay is observed from
time to time during barangay fiestas. Tourism could well enhance this native past time.
15. For marine environment, the whole polygon is diverse in marine life.
16. Sira-an Hot Spring has unique features that may be very interesting and educational for the visitors. It has a growing protrusion believed by
many as a baby volcano. A PhilVolc monitoring station sits by its base. To discover how and why it is growing is a scientific interest to student’s
natural science class. Moreover, Nogas Island has enough potential for CRM education and research.
However, the LGU has not undergone the required processes in the development of its tourism destinations. It has not conducted an audit of the
features peculiar to the area that may make this destination attractive. It has not conducted likewise, the very important Environmental Impact
Assessment whereby it identify the positive and negative factors of development and propose measures that would reduce the negative impacts. This
was not done prior to any physical or infrastructure development activity, as in the case of Sira-an HSHR.
The DOT had helped in the preparation of Sira-an master plan for its development as a resort but the LGU had made major revisions to the plan not
compatible to eco-tourism principles. It has not observed the requirement on minimum impact, blending of structures with the environment, blending
340
of facilities with native culture, and carrying capacity. The LGU has yet to tap technical guides-cum resource person of the participants. Lastly, regular
environment audit of the destination as to water quality, aesthetics, sewage, etc. is not observed.
However, Barangay Nato is happy about the physical development that transformed Sira-an to what it is now –prime attraction for local tourists and top
grosser among local revenue sources. That is because the community derives benefit from it and until now, has not caused any inconvenience for
them. It regularly gets a share from the gross receipts of the resort. They celebrate Sira-an Day every year –a day after their barangay religious fiesta.
1. The SWOT Matrix
The SWOT Matrix for Tourism Sector in the succeeding page is a big help to the planner and the decision-makers in generating feasible alternative
strategies for the sector. Focus is given to such concerns as the development of the areas that have tourism potential to attract tourists to
the municipality and provision of requisite tourism support facilities. With SWOT analysis, Anini-y’s present development role in tourism is
established.
2. Identified Problems, Needs/Demand
a. ON TRAVEL AND TOUR GUIDES
There is no tourism program to speak of but Sira-an Hot Spring Resort. Domestic and foreign tourists may have visited the Century-Old Catholic
Church, Nogas Island, Cresta del Gallo and the underwater gardens but they could have heard of them by word of mouth. Sadly, no determined effort
had ever been conducted by the LGU for a concerted promotion of these potential income generators. No office is tasked to handle tourism
341
promotion, coordination and management. Furthermore, the local tourism board is not organized. At times when visitors are around no volunteer has a
specific task to accompany them around. Much more, no one is available who could act both as resource person and tourist guide.
b. ON ADEQUACY OF EXISTING PERSONNEL
There is a need for a professional resort manager that can provide the “ IT “ in its operation. Sira-an as business venture needs to be run as a
business. By the size of its operation, Sira-an is over manned but under serviced. The staff at Sira-an is assigned only for collection of fees and
minimal maintenance works. Moreover, the staff needs to be introduced to tourism and undergo training on interpersonal relationship and team
building.
342

- Roads going to and from the ‘polygon’ is terrible
- Inadequate transport after 5pm
- Limited support from the national tourism agency
- PCG will not yield its control over Nogas Island ESTABLISHMENT
NETWORKING
- No regular external fund support
AND OF FULL-TIME
- Continuing commercial fishers intrusion
- Weak barangay ordinance implementation RESOURCE PROFESSIONALLY-RUN
- Many resorts are sprouting ACCESSING TOURISM OFFICE
- Politicking involved & policy and priority change
- Land next to Sira-an complex is non-negotiable
- Lack of residents’ capital for entrepreneurship
343
c. INADEQUACY OF FACILITIES
- As a picnic area, Sira-an facilities are in some aspect, inadequate. More playing ground and elbowroom are needed by the kids to run
around. It lacks indoor sports facilities to make the stay worthwhile when visitors are not keen on swimming. Sheds are adequate and
affordable. But, additional water faucets need to be provided to enable washing of utensils by different groups to be done
simultaneously and a solid waste disposal program initiated. More greens and pocket gardens need to be introduced and cultivated in
the area.
- As a health spa resort, its sulfuric pool and tubs are no longer enough for the volume of visitors. Basic pool regulations are not observed
that for some swimmers, a public swim in the crowded pool has become unhealthy. There is a need to provide a facility for fun
swimmers and another for spa enthusiasts. The source need to be fenced off and protected from contamination. Likewise, there is a
need for a smart scheme to increase the available water for swimming thus, enabling the increase in the size or number of pools.
- As a mini-convention center, Sira-an lacks the basic audio-video facilities and presentable tables. A mini-shop needs to be introduced in
the resort for souvenir items. Visitors for their communication requirements sorely need a cellular phone antenna. A more secure
parking area is a must. Rest rooms need improvement and day-round maintenance. In cases of emergency, no service vehicle is
readily available.
- As an educational center, the PhilVolcs’ facility in the area is not utilized to become another attraction.
344
d. ON FOOD FACILITIES AND SERVICES
A proprietor with exclusive right to operate a restaurant within Sira-an complex offers the same menu as a regular restaurant in the provincial capital
or in the city do. But, these food items are sold at a higher price than those offered by other establishments in Anini-y. The resort needs to offer
special native menus that could become a by-word to the Sira-an publics. It can become also an attraction in itself and add a new feature to the
resort. There is a need to review the terms of reference and condition of its operation and its rental fees accounted and audited.
e. ON LODGING FACILITIES AND SERVICES
Sira-an lodge in most times of the year has no customer. Local tourists come to Sira-an only to swim at its sulfuric pool and leave the resort
before night falls. Those who stay and lodge for a night or two are mostly training participants to conferences or human resource
development at Sira-an. There is a need for a standby power supply and potable water for the night’s guests. The price for lodging
should be made affordable for the locals to entice them to bring their family or friends to stay at least for a night.
f. ON PEACE AND ORDER SITUATION
While Nato tanods presently provide nighttime security, there is a need to implement the “police in the block” program to insure police visibility
and discourage potential trouble and crimes. Detailed officer needs to be respectable and drunkards need to be escorted outside of the
venue to maintain tranquil ambience of the resort. The perimeter fence needs to be established to insure proper fee collection and
prevent future break-ins.
345
g. OTHER ENHANCING FACTOR
A thematic architectural designs need to be established for the desired structure blending and sustainable development concept and upon which,
any development to be introduced needs to conform. The LGU needs to finance the relocation of PhilVolcs building between the pavilion and the
guesthouse. Likewise, the restaurant terrace needs to be turned 90 degrees around and moved between the pavilion and the restaurant’s kitchen.
These improvements are proposed to provide larger observation area for the sea-island scenery in the background. In their places may be erected
the children’s playground. This will also enhance the support of regional tourism planners.
The rocky promontory and pockets behind the Bubog Tree need to be developed maybe for rock climbing and other fun. Visitors’ wellbeing
however, needs to be considered primarily in their designs.

2. Strategies and Policy Recommendations
a. ON GOVERNMENT INCENTIVES TO TOURISM PROJECTS
Anini-y is not assured of financial assistance for the development of its tourism sites. Therefore, Anini-y LGU should encourage private
sector participation and where potential site is located, assist the barangay government and the lot owner to become active partners to joint
tourism venture. It should follow the processes involved in eco-tourism destination development to be eligible for any NGA assistance.
b. ON EFFORTS AND RESOURCES
- Efforts on implementation of pertinent fishery laws and regulations that impinge on tourism, marine resource pollution and other illegal
practices should solicit active fisherfolks involvement through their BFARMCs by making the effort community-based and sustainable.
- The LGU resources should be directed towards Sira-an for having existing and developed tourist facilities. The other potential tourism
sites’ development rests on their being supplementary to this tourism hub and on how this hot spring resort’s facilities can be optimized.
c. ON SUPPORT MECHANISM
- A local tourism board should be activated as soon as possible by co nstituting NGA-LGU-CS partnership on building a robust tourism
industry in the municipality. National government agencies with programs related to tourism and sustainable development should be
invited for stakeholdership to be eligible for their fulltime support.
- The Anini-y Catholic Church’s belfry and other repair and maintenance need should be facilitated by encouraging the establishment of a
heritage center whereby donation and income derived from its operation may be used to fund such need.
351
d. ON PROMOTION AND AWARENESS CAMPAIGN
The municipal government as the major stakeholder in its tourism industry development should invest substantially and should be financing
its comprehensively-designed programs that specifically balances and ensures revenue generation and ecological security. Thus, a tourism
promotion fund should be allocated that will generate an awareness of and interest for domestic tourism by initially subsidizing educational
travel and tours. A certain percentage of income derived from Sira-an operations should be set aside as promotion -cum expropriation fund
by passing some legislation to that effect.
e. ON POTENTIAL TOURISM DESTINATIONS
The panorama along all open beaches should be preserved by passing a legislation that prohibits the construction of permanent structures
along these areas other than tourism facilities. Establishment of private residences along the shores should strictly follow the offset
restrictions set by law by conducting actual site visit before the granting of building permits.

A. PROFILE AND SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS
A.1 Existing Commercial Establishments
Anini-y has no major Central Business District17 or a neighborhood center18 to speak of but has 4 minor CBD19 with “Market” as main feature. One market
type is a livestock auction market in Iba. The other centers are the wet and dry market in barangay Casay –10km. from Poblacion; the talipapa type in
Magdalena -7 km. from Poblacion but 3 km. away from Casay; and, the one in the Poblacion. While there are stalls maintained and operated daily, a day is
fixed and considered the market day for these centers: Wednesday for Magdalena, Thursday for Casay, and Friday for Poblacion. The livestock auction
market becomes an extension for Casay as Thursday is also its market day.
Presently, a commercial strip20 has been observed to be developing in the private lots on the other side of the national road where the Poblacion public
market is situated as market extension. Traffic is becoming a potential problem in the area because of this development. Three buildings for commercial
space needs are available also for rent in the Poblacion. While the data on the aggregate area occupied by various establishments in the whole municipality
Anini-y is not available, it can be easily concluded that Poblacion has the biggest in terms of aggregate commercial area. Poblacion being the capital
barangay is logical to have the most variety of goods and services available for the consuming publics with 33 different businesses in 2002.
17
Major Central Business District is a shopping and service area containing the largest department and variety stores and specialty shops as well as business and professional offices, hotels,
theaters and other entertainment facilities. This is generally found in first class cities and towns, planned and developed in a sizeable parcel of land. It provides on-site parking in relation to
shops
and offices and open spaces with extensive greenery. Megamalls or Big Shopping Malls fall within this category.
18
Neighborhood Center is the source of staple and convenient goods and services for the village/ neighborhood and is built around a Supermarket to serve as the principal retail service center
complimented by several Convenience Stores. It may serve a population of between 7,500 and 20,000 in the immediate neighborhood.
19
Minor Central Business District is the shopping and service area found in less developed or lower class cities and municipalities with the Market as its main feature, complemented by shops and
offices as well as recreational and transportation facilities. Noticeable in its character is the quasi-residential-commercial or mixed-use development in strip fashion at times amorphous. It is
generally located in the Poblacion, which services as the town center. It is further classified as:
3.1 Wholesale Market is (in the periphery of the town with rail sidings, road access and canals that skirt the town) intended for wholesale especially to shop owners and traders.
3.2 Wet and Dry Market is where merchandise is retailed directly to the consumers and is usually located in town centers. A TALIPAPA serves as wet and dry market in some barangays.
20
Commercial Strip is an extension of the CBD and is prevalent in most cities and municipalities, which also houses wholesale and retail stores, professional offices, services shops,
entertainment/
recreational facilities and other types of commercial establishment.

Iba and Casay Viejo are the next busiest commercially (Table C1 above) with 26 and 25 kinds of businesses, respectively. These barangays being the bus
and jeepney terminals have varying goods and services, especially provided by 2 auto supply outlets at Iba and a general merchant at Casay Viejo that sells
also auto supplies, among other goods and services. Tied at fourth place were Magdalena and Talisayan with 13 types of trading and service
establishments.
Anini-y’s 186 convenience outlets are broken down into 169 sari-sari stores and 17 bigger than the sari-sari establishments, that is, capital-wise. Nine out of
the 17 general merchandizing/ groceries/ dry goods stores are the more affluent stores from which most convenience goods are available, such as school
supplies, ice cream, RTWs, agro-industrial/construction supplies, etc. The 5 candy-and-other-confectionery stands were operating near the school
premises.
While convenience goods are beginning to be sold locally, 18 bar-BQ stands had emerged along the national road. Its presence helps the local livestock
and poultry industry as they provide the demand for native and locally bred chicken and livestock. The establishment of a gasoline station at the Poblacion
is a welcome development in the municipality. It is however, projected to affect the operation of other 7 “very small” fuel-oil-lubrication outlets in the
municipality. The pharmacy at the Poblacion public market is another welcome development. Residents fell more secure knowing a drugstore is within their
“arms length.” Assorted “very common medicine-for very common ailments” are also available in most sari-sari stores, which also sell soft drinks and
liquors. In a lesser degree, the establishment at the Poblacion of a specialty store for plastic wares has alleviated lack of access to household articles due to
high cost of chinaware and other metallic items. Moreover, an appliance dealer has no display center but is very prolific in her house-to-house “hard sell
approach.”
In general, the municipality in 2002 had 7 packed foods vendors, 10 rice retailers, 81 fish vendors and outlets (mostly found in Talisayan), 20 tuba vendors
(2 of them supplying vinegar in bottle), and 6 handicraft business operating at “order basis.” Among the many stores, 3 catered for fishing supplies, 3
359
catered for agricultural supplies and another 8 stores provided poultry supplies. Furthermore, Anini-y residents were served by 5 local bakeries aside from
breads and pastries delivered through various transports from outside Anini-y. Only one of these local bakeries was producing cakes and pastries. Only 1
store acknowledged to be selling muscovado sugar.
Meat and pork were more readily available locally, unlike before when residents wait for Saturday marketing at Dao to buy these goods or buy them from
the capital town of San Jose. At least once a week, the 6 meat and pork dealers were butchering livestock regularly. Two restaurants operated at Poblacion
primarily serving the LGU employees and the publics transacting at the government administration center. The same establishments were engaged in food
catering services for group, learning and training activities usually held at the Poblacion or at Sira-an resort. On the other hand, 9 small time eateries served
for budget-conscious customers. Other professional services were those provided by 18 tailoring shops, 2 beauty shops, 2 electronics shops, 2 airgun repair
shops, and 2 funeral parlors. Also available were the services of 3 small-time contractors.
In the fields of agriculture and SME, most service providers have no permits to operate. Anyhow, several pre and post harvest facilities now available (for
rental or other special arrangements) locally are 14 rice mills, 16 threshers, 2 kuliglig, 1 bao-bao, and 7 water pumps for limited irrigation. Most of the
farming and fishing groups associated into 10 cooperatives intended to provide themselves with organizational support services are not functional. For the
residents’ building construction support, 3 circular saw mills and 19 chain saws are available at per board foot basis. It is worth noting that the presence of 7
welding and repair shops in Anini-y signals that some form of industrialization is emerging in the municipality.
In the fields of transportation and communication, 6 PUJs and 6 cargo trucks provided transport services while 5 telephone operators and 41personal
cellular phones serviced the residents’ communication needs. The presence of 8 vulcanizing shops in the municipality provided ample support to the fast-
growing transport sector. Their proliferation however, signified the urgent need to pave with concrete the remaining unpaved portions of the Villavert
Jimenez - San Francisco road section and the rest of the Bailey bridges converted to concrete deck and girder structures.
360
Sira-an Hot Spring primarily provided the rest and recreation needs of the local tourists and residents. Other recreation and entertainment amenities
available in Anini-y were 2 VCD rental stores and 3 KTV sing-along joints. For social needs, 6 sound systems operated in Anini-y. They also serviced the
light and sound needs for social functions in nearby barangays of T. Fornier.

a. WHOLESALE TRADE
It is readily observed that the trading activity in Anini-y is almost the same as 10 years ago. There are no scrap metal, waste and junks dealers. No
wholesaler assembles physically, sort and grade goods in large lots and redistribute in smaller lots or stores. It seems that the time for assemblers, buyers
and cooperative associations engaged in the marketing of farm products has not yet come. The only wholesale trading involves liquor and soft drinks done
by only 4 proprietors, 2 of which are in Poblacion, 1 in San Roque and another in Casay Viejo. With this kind of business, we can easily conclude that Anini-
y is exporter of empty bottles.
b. RETAIL TRADE
Table C2 presents the retail trade establishments operating in the municipality duly registered with the Mayor’s Office. Per type of goods and services
offered, Table C2 below shows several minor trading activities in the locality. The most prominent type is the Sari-sari store found in all of the barangays. A
cooperative is present at Barangay Casay. However, the retail services it offers is still retailing of consumer goods as groceries, grains and commercial agri-
input as pesticide and fertilizer. In recent years, 2 gasoline stations were established, 1 at Casay and another at Poblacion. Out of the 140 operators with
permits to ply their respective businesses, 115 of them operate sari-sari stores. Furthermore, 6 operators manage each a dry goods-general merchandizing
store while each of the 77 proprietors run a liquor outlet. There exist also 17 rice retail establishments and 3 bangus-fry buying outlets.
Two bakery proprietors do not only bake breads but each operates a bread supply outlet. Same with the 2 hollow block proprietors. Each produces and sells
hollow blocks. Raw pork and/or beefs are available in 2 stalls while plastic wares are sold in another 2 stores. Two more entrepreneurs are each into
362
vegetables retailing and another 2 are each into candy retail business. On the other hand, an ice cream corner, a fish trading outlet, copra trading venture,
poultry supply, pharmacy, hardware, kitchenware, and a fuel, oil and lubrication station are each operated by single proprietors. Above retail activity involves
sale of personal or household consumption or utilization by shops, convenience stores, stalls, gasoline filling stations, and consumer’s cooperatives.
It also involves sale of displayed merchandise products that may not be for personal or household consumption or use. Furthermore, sale also includes
renting of goods to the general public for personal or household use, except amusement or recreational goods, such as comics and books, motorcycles and
bicycles. Repair and installation services rendered by establishment mainly engaged in retail trade are included under this category. Most retailers take title
to the goods they sell, but some act as agents for a principal and sell either on consignment or on a commission basis.
c. BANKING AND FINANCE, INSURANCE AND EDUCATION PLANS, AND REAL ESTATE
The municipality has no bank, pawnshop, investment and holding company, security dealer and commodity exchanger. However, Casay Credit Coop is into savings
and credit service. Anini-y residents do its banking more in San Jose than Iloilo. The bank executives in the capital town will readily volunteer the information
that municipal-wise and aggregate-wise, the depositors from Anini-y have the biggest money in their banks. On the other hand, agents of companies from
Iloilo or San Jose come to this municipality to sell insurance services or educational plans to their relatives or friends from this place. Most local people
approached are the families of seamen and oversea contract workers. There are also those that come to sell real estate in other municipalities as many
affluent residents of Anini-y put special priority to land acquisition after their children’s education.
d. SERVICE
Owners of 41 private cellular phones that have installed their own antennas mostly serve the public’s communication needs on arranged rates. Only 5 calling
stations are legally operating in Anini-y, though. On the other hand, the operators of 6 trucks, 6 public utility jeeps, and 25 tricycles provide transport
services for goods and passengers with 8 vulcanizing and 7 welding shops supporting their operations. Limited irrigation services may be source-out from
363
owner-operators of 7 water pumps. Furthermore, local service providers can amply served the farming requirements on tilling, threshing, and milling needs
in the locality. Likewise, needs for sawing lumbers and felling of coconut trees are readily available –with permit or no permit. Other service enterprises
include photocopying, building contracting, gun repair and electronics equipment repair.

Establishments operating 4 “karaoke” televisions, 6 sound systems, 2 videocassette and disks rental outlets, and 1 local cable television provide the
recreational services under the audio-video category. Sports and leisure services may be accessed from a gaming group operating a cockpit, 2 resorts and
1-billiard hall. There are other pool halls but they are the “now you see me, now you don’t” type. Some types of service establishments not available locally
and are not on demand are on martial arts, travel and tour, review class, pension house, printing, printing press, media arts, lending, surveying, pawnshop,
computer, video coverage, freight forwarder, portage, medical clinic, iridology clinic, optical clinic, and dental clinic. Existing personal service establishments
includes 2 resto-caterer, 9 refreshment parlors, 2 funeral and 2 beauty parlors. Eight barangays have tailoring services while overnight lodging need of
visitors and transients are provided solely by the LGU at Sira-an HSDC.
A.2 Previous Commercial Establishments
In the past, billiard tables were operated in the Poblacion. Even individuals own pool tables as recreation facilities. However, the sustainability of these facilities
seemed to puzzle the operators. Somehow, the management lacks promotional skills and it appeared that enthusiasm of the players for this game seemed
to wane after some time, so that the maintainers opted to discontinue as such facilities have become unprofitable. What could be best studied is the closure
of countless sari-sari stores all over the municipality. Most of those interviewed shared that the long list of IOUs or Utang of friends and relatives that could
not be turned down spelled the demise of their enterprise. Absence of bookkeeping and accounting has contributed immensely as the liquidity of the
business is not easily established. Many of these sari-sari store businesses also closed down when the storeowner were forced to spend the income
including the capital for health, and educational needs of immediate family members. A number closed shop when the owner in his cockpit and other
gaming sorties used the business capital and lost.

365
In 1980, a development mapping was conducted. It established Casay Market as having the greatest convergence of trading activities, even greater than
Poblacion’s. The reason could be the availability of livestock auction market services in Casay that drew traders from the neighboring barangays in the
adjacent municipalities of T. Fornier, Antique and San Joaquin, Iloilo.
In the past, many establishments operated without business permit to operate. The LGUs are just starting to realize its implication to resource generation and local
development. Hence, concrete data is not presently available to assess the growth of commercial activity, in terms of rate of increase in number of
establishments. However, there are factors that could be cited to have contributed to the growth of commercial activities in the municipality:
a. Presence of infrastructure support facilities and services
b. Private sector investments
c. Increasing trend of consumable consumptions within the municipality
d. Employment of persons 15 years old and over
Anini-y saw the paving of selected sections of the national road with concrete this last decade of the 20th century, which triggered the construction binge of
concrete residential buildings along and adjacent to that portions. Private sector responded by investing on several commercial outlets for construction
materials generating bandwagon effect as access to these materials is now provided. It provided opportunities for those in the labor sector to find short term
employment. Ancillary industries like hollow-block making, baluster making, and welding shops for roof truss making among several others, are established.
In due time, basic government services offered in Poblacion became accessible as private sector investments in transportation have become profitable.
Transport support services sprouted. More jobs are available to employ people 15 years old and over and those with some capital became self-employed.
Iba and Casay Viejo became the municipal terminal points and commercial activities more than doubled near the parking areas. Coupled by local
government investments on physical infrastructures, the 3 public markets have become livelier as more residents are now doing their marketing within the
municipality. More ambulant type of services sprouted thus, more money has circulated making the underground economy alive. Establishments that were
366
established are not power and water consumptives. Thus, economic development in the commerce sector was not constrained by the high cost of electricity
or by availability of water. The aggregate result of this development spurt is the increase in domestic tourism demand.
B.1 Present Needs
The current commercial service centers are strategically located. The west section has Poblacion as service center. Iba is the geographic center of the 8 eastern
barangays of Anini-y from Mabuyong to San Francisco and the 4 adjacent barangays of T. Fornier: Danawan, Camandagan, Nasuli A, and Samalague. Iba,
which is also the municipal transport terminal, cater to the service needs of eastern barangays. The central barangays service their needs either way.
Poblacion market is LGU-owned and houses most of the service establishments while that at Iba is scattered, individually and privately owned.
There is a need to provide a service center in Iba under one roof by allocating a space preferably, opposite or adjacent the present auction-market. This way, power
and water supply needs could be easily provided. Business activities can be more manageable, and laws and ordinances more enforceable. Furthermore,
garbage collection, solid waste management and traffic can be efficiently run. The government will have more reasons to provide funds for flood prevention
and Nasuli riverbank’s erosion, which could endanger lives and properties in the area.
B.2 Future Needs
Geographically, the town is at disadvantage vis-à-vis other municipalities of the province and Iloilo. Furthermore, consider Anini-y’s resources lies more in its marine
waters and its undeveloped uplands, the skills of its residents and those savings in the banks. In the future, Anini-y commercial activities will focus on
trading between and among its barangays. Thus, future needs shall be more on the transport and communication services and support for exporting its
367
excess fishes and meat, and infrastructure needs that will enhance its strategic recreational advantage over the adjacent municipalities. When provided,
only then those support services on enhancing small and medium scale industries shall be felt.

B.3 Problems/ Needs and Demands
a. FINANCING SOURCE
All Anini-y OFWs both working land-based and seafaring are potential source of investments as everyone realizes that working abroad is not forever and that
while the going is good their incomes must be properly invested. Other “probables” are local retirees that have been granted retirement pension. Long shot
investors may come from the ranks of American pensioners who have gone home for good. Most of all, the proprietors of existing establishment needs to be
encouraged to invest more.
Several investment groups have visited the municipality but whatever transpired in their visit remained a secret. Knowledge on their demands, their chosen field
of investments, and their infrastructure requirements should be taken up with the local trade investment board that needs to be constituted and made
functional. Should there will be a need to pursue their investment plan a team is available to make them feel assured we are interested.
b. MANPOWER
Most of the 17 coastal barangays now need their pump boat operators to be trained on marine motor engine preventive maintenance and trouble-shooting. Many
fishing trips have been aborted due to engine troubles. On the other hand, their family members need training on fish and food processing technology, and
simplified bookkeeping and accounting. Similarly, there is an increasing demand on motorized vehicle repair and maintenance as more land transportation ply
the Anini-y trading and service centers, and the Anini-y-provincial and city terminals.
It has been observed that many wood-carpenters, masons, steelmen and peons need some orientations on basic construction techniques, carpentry and
measurements. Most peasants are into the construction sector by experience and require only sheer muscle power from them. There is a need to improve the
quality, economy and efficiency of their works to enable them to branch out into woodcrafts and handicrafts.
339
Majority of the residents is also into livestock and poultry production, most of them without any training. It is about time that the agricultural sector’s productivity and
profitability are improved not only for their family income’s sake but also for the revenues that could be generated during marketing of their products.
c. SUPPORT FACILITIES
Access of the domestic tourists and regional traders to the municipality needs improvement, as this will boost tourism, commercial and industrial activities in the
municipality. Paving with concrete the entire Guisang-an - Tiolas section of the national road will bring Anini-y closer to bigger population centers. It will
skyrocket the development of the area as the regional tourism and livestock center. On the other hand, the repair, maintenance and improvement of arterial
roads connecting all the barangays, both coastal and uplands of Anini-y are the LGUs’ major responsibility. This road factor will have enormous contribution to
all barangays’ unimpeded march to progress.
Many of the residents love to live a good life. Many have lived for a long time in Metro-Manila and other prime cities. There is a need to establish a shopping
center or a decent supermarket that houses in one roof various commercial trading and service establishments. This will reduce their going to Iloilo City or San
Jose for their business chores. It is also a felt need to establish at least, a rural bank in the municipality to serve the banking needs of the OFWs and the
businessmen. This bank could be located within this shopping center.
All this building infrastructure support will not serve its purpose if power and water supply are not adequate and reliable. There is a need therefore, to provide
alternative power source for these installation and the municipal-wide water utility company be established to manage the development and distribution of
potable water within the municipality.
340
d. OTHERS
To enhance further commercial development without necessarily sacrificing our environment, there is a need to provide incentives to investors in the form of special tax
offer, a clearer investment policy and in most cases, subsidies for pioneering industries in the municipality. All pollution-enhancing industries need to be
blocked out of the area while there is a corresponding need to minimize and control pollution brought about by the use of agricultural chemicals and battery
additives. There is also a need to inculcate household level solid waste management while the garbage volume is still manageable.
Commercial development is the way to the future. Comprehensive plans need to be finalized and integrated, and municipal thrusts re-oriented. The present and future
land requirements need to be calculated and corresponding lots earmarked for the commercial activity expansion. There is no development if there is no peace
and order in an area. Thus, there is a need to maintain or further improve the present level of harmonious relationship that prevails in the various strata of
Anini-y society.
341
C.1 Goals: Promotion of the growth of commercial activities in 2 development corridors in the locality, by EO 2010.
C.2 Objectives: 1. Provision of sufficient land in strategic locations within or near the present service centers for commercial development with
due regard for future expansion by EO2007;
2. Mobilization of local capital to finance the establishment of new commercial ventures by EO2008;
3. Organization of local entrepreneurs and other business group to take active participation in their sector development by
EO2008;
4. Provision of relevant and critical support services to the sector by EO 2009; and,
5. Provision of business atmosphere conducive to the development of strong government-private sector partnership by 3Q2009.
342
D.1 Commercial Activity that Needs Expansion
Presently, Anini-y has 140 trading and 95 service establishments’ proprietors and most of them are located in more densely populated barangays. Percentage-wise,
76% (107 out of 140) and 59% (56 out of 95) trading and service proprietors own establishments within the municipal growth centers22. Population growth and
physical development are occurring mostly in these barangays for several years now.
The eastern cluster is bannered by the Casay public market and the relocation of the municipal livestock auction market from Casay to Iba caused also the movement
of livestock trading towards this direction. This growth corridor now serves as the poultry and livestock trade center whereby “viajeros” from other municipalities
and local poultry and livestock growers are converging weekly. It is this commercial activity that needs local support for expansion. It is recommended that the
improvement should be double-pronged:
a. sufficient supply of fattened stocks; and
b. auction market facility development with ‘clean and green’ component;
The western cluster is bannered by Poblacion market. When more fish landing are done at Talisayan, fish trade has also shifted from Salvacion into this barangay.
However, daily trading activity occurs outside the market infrastructure and the desired revenues are not properly generated. It is this commercial activity that
needs LGU support for expansion. Support should come in the form of:
a. construction of cold storage facility within or adjacent to the market; and
b. improved sea disaster response mechanism
22
The eastern growth corridor has 55 (Iba- 8, Casay Viejo- 5, Casay- 18, Mabuyong - 27) proprietors; central growth corridor has 34 (Magdalena- 24, San Roque-10) and the
western growth corridor has 74 (Butuan- 15, Poblacion- 28, Sagua- 7, Talisayan- 24) proprietors, respectively.
343
Both expansions to become viable will demand timely provision of vital support services, in terms of Socio-Economic Infrastructure Building and Support
Physical Infrastructure Building under a favorable business atmosphere. Socio-Economic Infrastructure Building covers the organization of the livestock and
poultry growers and the organization of the fisherfolks and their families to promote their respective sector’s interest. Such people’s organization building should
be coupled with relevant training and other educational inputs that will improve their productivity and profitability. It also involves the mobilization of resources
and capital for their economic enterprises. The Municipal Agriculture and Fisheries Council and the Municipal Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Council must
be strengthened correspondingly to be able to assist in these endeavors. These councils should lead in the promotion of complimentary municipal land-use
policies and relevant municipal ordinances. On the other hand, the Support Physical Infrastructure Building component covers the concreting of access roads
towards this markets/ cold storage facility. It also involves the provision of adequate and reliable power and water supplies to these facilities. Transportation,
enough parking space and communication facilities should be made available in these areas, finally.
The central cluster has the barangay-owned public market where trading of agricultural products from its uplands becomes a weekly affair. It is in the central
cluster that enough lands suited for high value crop and crafts production may be tapped for agro-industrial development projects. See the Industry Sector Plan
for more discussions in this regard. The 3 growth centers will need other support group participation in its commercial activities like those coming from the
transport and construction sectors. Hence, they should also be included in the socio-economic infrastructure building program. See the Industry Sector Plan for
discussions also in this regard.
D.2 Site for Future Commercial Development
Considering hereunder the site selection criteria for commercial areas and markets/ trading centers with corresponding requirements for parking and loading
space, it is recommended that the lots adjacent and east of the present Poblacion public market should be acquired for these needed future market expansion.
As discussed earlier, lots adjacent to the present auction market or opposite it is ideal for the proposed market expansion at the eastern cluster. Otherwise, the
future expansion will take the form of vertical development of the present Casay public market.
344
a. SITE SELECTION CRITERIA FOR COMMERCIAL AREA
- The site must be located in the most desirable general area as established by the economic survey;
- The site must be owned or controlled by the developer, or offers the possibility of acquisition;
- Land must be in keeping with the overall economic consideration;
- Existing zoning must permit shopping center development or reasonable likelihood of rezoning must exist;
- The site must contain sufficient land to permit construction facilities to meet the sales potential;
- The land must be in one piece, free of intervening roadways, right-of-way, easements, major waterways, or other obstacle that would
force development in separated portions;
- The topography and shape of the site must permit advantageous planning and reasonable construction;
- The surrounding road pattern and accessibility must allow full utilization of the business potential;
- The structure must be visible from major thoroughfares;
- The surrounding areas must be safeguarded against blight;
- Retail facilities should be exposed to maximize foot traffic;
- Various mechanized traffic types and foot traffic be separated and distinct from one another;
- Maximum comfort and convenience for shoppers and merchants should be provided for; and
- Orderliness, unity and beauty should be achieved.
b. SITE SELECTION CRITERIA FOR MARKETS/ TRADING CENTERS
- It should be in urbanized area;
- There should be relatively developed economic and servicing activity, and an established link with other key areas of the municipality;
345
- On the basis of market potentials it should be along major arteries and with more than one line of access.
- It should be in strategic and convenient locations preferably along existing and proposed land and other modes of transportation to
facilitate communication and distribution of goods to other areas dependent on this center for their shopping needs; and,
C. PARKING AND LOADING SPACE REQUIREMENTS
The recommended distances expressed in travel time on foot or kilometers are as follows:
- 750 meters or maximum of 15 minutes travel time on foot from residential zones to neighborhood center;
- 12 kilometers maximum walking distance or 15 to 30 min ride by public transport service from residential zones to minor CBD;
- 5 minutes minimum ride or 15 minutes on foot from recreational zones to any shopping center;
- 15 minutes minimum ride by public transport from educational center;
- 300 meters or 10 to 20 minutes minimum ride from health center/ hospital;
- 5 minutes travel time from police station;
- 3 to 5 minutes travel time from fire station; and,
- 5 to 10 kilometers or 15 to 20 minutes travel time of garbage truck.
D,3 Policy Recommendations and Strategies
a. It shall be the policy of the municipality to adopt a private sector led but government initiated approach to commercial development. It should
vigorously pursue the establishment of mass-based commercial activity around the eastern, central and western commercial development
corridors by mobilizing low-income households for undertaking livelihood projects and providing funds to small entrepreneurs.
b. The LGU recognizes that commercial activities will not expand unless its access roads are not paved. Thus, it should exert utmost efforts to
source out funds for the concreting of its national roads by renaming its national road as the President Diosdado Macapagal Highway in
346
honor of the only president of the country who ever walks its road. Likewise, it should submit a resolution to Her Excellency Gloria Macapagal-
Arroyo for her assistance in the funding of said project.
c. The LGU should take commercial development as its primary responsibility by pump priming necessary market infrastructure facilities
construction and the acquisition of lots for its expansion.

INDUSTRY
“Industry development must not be left alone to the entrepreneurs

as people will still buy poisons as long as it is properly packaged and advertised.”
349
A. ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING SITUATION
A.1 Inventory of Existing Industrial Establishment
Almost two-thirds of the 8 mobile and 10 stationary rice mills are mostly based in upland barangays. It is the uplands’ respond to food security and is
the most prevalent manufacturing establishment, yet Anini-y is a rice-importing town. Food preparation and processing is next prevalent with 11 into
cooked food manufacturing, 4 families venturing into the packed foods industry (bakery included into the count) and 2 responded as native food
processor. From time to time, NICS ARBMPC tries meat processing. Many more are into food industry only that they are not producing regularly.
There was a construction mini-boom in Anini-y in 2000. At least, 7 concrete hollow block-pre-cast products and 4 iron-grill manufacturers, aside from
chain saw operators provided services for lumber production. For sometime now, metal craft industry has started in Anini-y. Nine are into various types
of metal products but 2 establishments specialize on tricycle sidecar production and 3 on thresher making. Interestingly, 2 proprietors tried flower
making from rubber and recycled styrofores, 3 groups produce wood furniture while 2 craftsmen venture into bamboo craft production.
The industries present in Anini-y may be considered as backyard in scope or micro industries according to capitalization. As to ownership, all of these
are considered family enterprises. Hired hands are considered family helpers as no formal employer-employee relationship exists in reference to the
two. There is no available data on production volume and value in all aforesaid industries.
Data is also not available on Bayo Grande bamboo craft artisans. Other existing industries but that no information is available: pottery-making at
Butuan; smithery at Igtumarom and Talisayan; buricraft at Magdalena, Nasuli C and San Francisco; RTWs at Sagua; and, stuffed toys at Mabuyong.
Moreover, it is common knowledge that bamboo fish trap making is flourishing in Anini-y uplands while boat making, though not regularly also is a
source of income at coastal areas.

Also noted and considered as nascent industrial establishment is bakery. There is one located in Sagua. This could be classified as an emerging
industry as its present production capacity is far below the demand. This observation is based on the fact that there are still a number of delivery cars/
jeeps that supply sari-sari stores with bread coming from other municipalities even as far as those coming from San Joaquin, Iloilo.
The mobile rice mills have always been in the local scene since the 60’s. Many came and went. Most of these are primarily due to mismanagement,
minimal profit and inadequate knowledge on preventive maintenance, like that traveling rice mill at Lisub A. The advent of much better mill models
forced many more to retire their traveling units that usually produced inferior finished rice grains as the public has become more demanding. Those
with limited capitalization also folded up.
Two entrepreneurs (1 in Poblacion, 1 in Talisayan) rode with the “hot pan de sal” craze during the 80’s and experienced instant boom. Both branch out
into bread and cakes. When the fad subsided they also went weighed down by mismanagement. Two other tailoring shops that were operating in
Poblacion also closed. The first was due to the death of the master cutter-owner. No family member was ready to take over, as his children were not
apt to this line of endeavor. The second master cutter–proprietor left for Mindanao as his drinking spree has caused him some enemies. The one in
Casay and another in Lisub B stopped operation when the master cutter-tailors became sickly. Some latecomers tried also their hands in tailoring and
dressmaking. Again, the advent of the “ready to wears” and the designer jeans craze dampened their enthusiasm and eagerness. The one that persists
up to now is operated by a fellow from Iloilo.
Based on number of employees, these industries were micro-enterprises or cottage industries having no definite number of employees or less than
10 employees. These industries were light industries having no pollutive/ non-hazardous effect to the environment.
352
The municipality has no metallic and non-metallic reserves of known commercial quantities. It is left with its natural beauties and products from its uplands
and marine waters. Analyzing their potential for manufacturing industry, ancillary activities like cooked food and native delicacies production and
handicrafts from bamboos and parts of coconut trees could revolve around community-based tourism. Anini-y’s bamboo is also considered one of the
sturdiest being constantly bombarded by salt water spray from the sea is good for handicraft production. Moreover, fattened cattle is good raw material for
meat processing and the abundance of fish on certain periods can be utilized for production of fish meals and fish paste as a support to the local livestock
industry
B.1 Present Needs
The hollow blocks - pre-cast concrete product factories need adequate supply of gravel and sand. The source of good sand and gravel is between 50
to 60 kilometers away that the industry has to use sands along selected shores. Since quarrying is now strictly regulated by the provincial government,
big orders of these product items may be facilitated if they can get sand and gravel in Sibalom. Anyhow, most orders are in hundreds.
The wood furniture makers, handicraft artisans using bamboos, buri, metals, rubbers etc., potters, blacksmiths, stuff toy and RTW makers need product
design training to be able to compete in the bigger market. Boat makers subsist only on order basis and needs no permanent space to maintain or start
up capital. Rice millers should be link to bakeries to be able to make money from the rice hulls. They need preventive maintenance and minor repair
trainings while the food processors need to be trained on sanitary food handling. All of them need entrepreneurial trainings on product labeling and
costing, and basic bookkeeping and accounting. Finally, all of them need assistance on market linkage.
353
B.2 Future Needs
Considering the current trend, these industrial activities shall remain micro enterprises. The economic conditions of the country will most likely dictate
their existence. Actual land area allocation for future industrial development will not be a problem. If ever any of these will prosper and becomes big,
industrial land will be its primary requirement. But, actual demand shall be governed by its impact on the environment, traffic, and the provision of
services and utilities like sewerage collection system, water and power, telecommunications and access to service roads and transportation. The
municipality must also adopt measures and safeguards against pollution and devise means to preserve its natural ecosystems in consonance with the
approved standards on human settlements and environmental sanitation as required by the Local Government Code.

C. FORMULATION OF GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND TARGETS
GOAL: By the end of 2015, resource-based and labor intensive cottage industries supportive of the community-based tourism program
shall have been operational within the municipality.
OBJECTIVES:
1. To double the investments of the present micro-enterprises every 2 years, to start by the end of 2007.
2. To attain a 100% increase in local industry employment by the end of 2008
3. To develop a number of industries to produce key commodities particularly those that process local raw materials and enhance
their technology capability, by 2009.
4. To conduct area-wide information dissemination campaign on how to start small and medium scale industries, by 2010-15.
TARGETS:
a. manufacturing industry inventory and mapping updated by the end of 2007;
b. all decision-makers acquainted and apprised with industry situation and needs by the end of 2007;
c. local commerce and industry development team and council organized by the Q3 of 2007;
d. individual industry profile established by the middle of 2008;
e. government tax incentives, entrepreneurial training and other assistance granted to pioneering industries starting 2008;
f. local ordinance on fish supply management and monitoring passed by 2008;
g. native delicacies and other food processing industry operations by 2008;
356
h. fish processing industry operations by 2009;
i. meat processing industry operations by 2009; and,
j. handicraft cottage industries operations by 2010-15.
a. On government policy and incentives to industry players. The unwritten policy of “ensuring all public expenditures generate in return income
for the LGU” has profound implications to the industry sector growth. The LGU is short of development funds and business is being left to the
private sector. But, this should not deter the administration to extend whatever incentive to the industry sector that could pump prime
manufacturing activities. Therefore, Anini-y LGU should promote government-initiated, private sector led program and where potential
enterprise that uses local raw materials may be located, assist the barangay government and the investor to become active partners or initiate
joint ventures.
b. On development direction and cluster functions. The LGU should niche on its strategic tourism advantage over the rest of Antique and
coordinate with adjacent towns to generate extension visits to destinations within the municipality. Fish processing endeavors should be located
within the Fishery Cluster; meat processing ventures at the Livestock Cluster; the handicraft enterprises at the Service Cluster; Upland Cluster
remains as the production area; while the Tourism Cluster as the hub of commerce and industry consolidates tourism-supportive efforts. A solid
waste management program should supplement any package. Production should be at family level while marketing should be at community
level.
357
c. On support mechanism. A local commerce and industry council with the municipal economic development team should be activated as soon
as possible by constituting LGU-Business Sector partnership. National line agencies with related programs may be invited as stakeholder to get
their fulltime support.
d. On promotion and awareness campaign. The municipal government as the major stakeholder in manufacturing industry development should
initiate efforts and should be financing its program to create enthusiasm and entice local investors to start their cottage industries. Thus,
awareness should start at the decision-makers level, i.e.; the local politicians and barangay leaders.

Almost 10% of the total municipal land area is in Magdalena. Its A&D lands is the biggest in the municipality, San Francisco is second and San Ramon and
Igtumarom, third and fourth respectively. With Nogas Island treated as naval reserve, Poblacion’s A&D lands emerge the smallest, then those of Sagua and
Casay Viejo. The last two barangays are known to have been parts respectively, of Poblacion and Casay in the old days thus, their small areas.
Anini-y’s 6182.9021 hectares of A&D lands comprise 93.4367% of the municipal total land area of 6617.2108 hectares, based on the DENR report to DBM which is
being used by the latter as basis in computing the local IRA share of Anini-y. By the end of the century, 4578.0378 hectares of these lands were used either
as built-up areas, pasture and agricultural lands. The remaining 1660.8643 hectares are roadways, wetlands, marine and easement areas, open shrub
lands, etc. scattered all over Anini-y. These data further signify that more or less, 80% of these A&D lands can be found in slopes of 18% or over. This
confirms the findings under the Agriculture Sector of this Plan that our watershed areas in the forestland are now tilled for agricultural uses.
2. Forestlands24
23
A&D Lands are lands which can be titled. These are lands of the public domain below 18 percent in slope that are classified and determined not to be needed for forest purposes and are
available
for disposition under Commonwealth Act No. 141, as amended by the Public Land Act. This Act also specifies that lands 18% in slope or over that have been declared as A&D lands shall be
reverted to the classification of Forestlands to form part of the forest reserves.
24
Forest Lands are lands of public domain classified as such and declared as needed for forestry purposes. These areas inherently produce more benefits and give better service than when
converted to agricultural lands or other uses such that those lands are not titled. Forestlands include Production and Protection Forestlands.
360
Table F1 further shows 6.5633% of the total municipal lands of Anini-y equivalent to 434.3087 hectares are Forestlands. These are broken down into 309.5900
hectares of production forests and 124.7187 hectares of protection forest25.
25
Protection Forests are categorized into NIPAS Areas and Non- NIPAS Areas. NIPAS Areas are either strict nature reserve, natural park, natural monument, wildlife sanctuary, resource reserve,
natural biotic areas, protected landscapes and seascapes, and other categories established by law. Non- NIPAS Areas are greenbelt/ bufferstrips, reserved second growth forests, mangroves,
freshwater swamps/ marshes, and un-proclaimed watersheds

a. PRODUCTION FORESTS
These forestlands are managed primarily for the production of timber and other tree products like firewood. These include the Integrated Social
Forestry (Agro-Forestry); residual dipterocarp forests; rangelands for grazing; watersheds; and other forestlands for special uses like the
radar facility at Mt. Aliwliw. The 2 other forestlands but are not found in Anini-y are the areas for Community Forest Program and pine forests
for logging. Based on slope classification, production forests are those with slope of 18% to 50% regardless of forest cover.
Specially delineated for ISF Program are 65.5700 hectares in Lisub A, 134.4300 hectares in Tagaytay and 109.5900 hectares in Talisayan. These
areas constitute 4.6786% of the total municipal land area. A listing of the ISF Program participants is attached as Annex F1.
b. PROTECTION FORESTS
Protection forests include the National Integrated Protected Areas Systems (NIPAS) and the Non-NIPAS Areas. These areas are maintained
primarily for their beneficial effects on soil and water and in the environment, in general. The remaining forests of the municipality and those
that will be developed in the future are no longer subject to conversion into other land uses, or into excessive and illegal cutting, as well as to
various forms of exploitation not within a prescribed management plan. Protection forests need to be conserved/ protected/ preserved:
1. to maintain the desired ecological balance and area characteristics;
2. to protect the integrity of sensitive/ critical ecosystems;
3. to preserve their natural or unique characteristics
4. to allow degraded resources to regenerate themselves; and
5. to protect the human populace and all living things from environmental degradation.
363
NIPAS areas are habitats of rare and endangered species of plants and animals and, cover the biotic zones and related ecosystems, whether
terrestrial, wetland or marine. RA 7586 provides for NIPAS establishment and identified 8 categories of protected areas. No NIPAS area is
proclaimed in Anini-y however, the 1996 DENR study found there are several endangered animals in Nogas Island.
As in the NIPAS areas, equal importance should be accorded to non-NIPAS areas in terms of conservation and sustainable development. Table F1
indicates 1.8848% of the total municipal land area, equivalent to 124.7187 hectares is classified as protection forest. Bayo Pequeño and San
Ramon have both 9.5254 hectares of unproclaimed watersheds as protection forests while Poblacion has the whole 27.2149 hectares of
Nogas Island as mangrove areas (claimed also by the PCG as naval reserve). The DAR-Antique has likewise delineated 22.4530 hectares
comprising Mt. Nasog as natural monument and excluded it from its areas of CARP coverage.
3. Existing Programs and Projects
The PENRO/CENRO Offices in Antique has not granted any forest concession within Anini-y area such that any revenue generated from forest activities is very
minimal and is at household level only. Furthermore, while there are aborigines in the locality there is no Ancestral Domain Claims filed within their level.
Among the various programs and projects on forest rehabilitation/ reforestation of ENRO is the Integrated Social Forestry Program (ISFP) 26 availed of by the
municipality through the designation of MENRO as partner in the implementation of forest management program.
26
The ISF Program aims to transform forest occupants from instruments of forest destruction to forest conservation. The program aims to address the problems of deforestation, poverty and
landlessness through the issuance of the Certificate of Stewardship Contract to upland occupants over parcels of denuded forestlands with the condition that
reforestation (agro-forestry included) and other livelihood activities be undertaken.

B. DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND PROJECTED NEEDS
1. Encroachment of Rice Farming into Critical Watershed Sites
About 440 ha of uplands are utilized for rice farming. This is not supposed to be practiced, as these are critical sources of water supply. If intensive use of
these lands continues, more water depletion shall be expected. To date, only 5.51% of the agricultural lands is irrigated because of inadequate water sources.
Irrigation waters can supply the second cropping needs of Lisub A. However, irrigation structures silt easily causing periodic breaching of levees, erosion and
damage, and minimal use of irrigated land. The systems need regular de-clogging and concrete ditches to improve water delivery. The frequent silting
indicates the critical state of Anni-y watersheds. To date, the watershed status of these irrigation systems ranges from eroded to fair watershed condition.
2. Very Limited Municipal “Clean and Green” Program
3. Other Decision Zones
a There is a need to identify and delineate the following areas:
• kaingin activities regularly conducted in some forestlands during Black Fridays of the annual Holy Week
• some protection forestlands without forest cover
• some production forestlands without forest cover
• existence of pasture lands within protected areas
• other production land uses within protected areas

366
• unmanaged forestlands
• silting/ sedimentation of river systems

1. Goals:
I. Enhanced community education and actions on proper utilization of forestlands.
II. Well-protected and productive forestlands.
III. Partnership on gainful forestry-based resource tourism.
2. Objectives by the end of the year 2015:
I. 1. To increase adherents/ stakeholders among local decision-makers from 1 to 8 officials by the end of 2007 (refer to Agriculture Plan)
2. To increase the percentage share of CAP/agro-forestry budget from 20% IRA/ municipal development fund by 100% in 2008 to 150% in
2009, 200% in 2010 and thereafter, and
3. To increase the number of POs/coops actively involved and participating in community-level activities from 0 to 2 by the end of 2008
II. 1. To rehabilitate 30 hectares of micro-watershed and develop agro-forestry areas of 10 hectares (refer to Agriculture Plan)
2. To increase adopter of soil and water conservation from 25 to 50 farmers (refer to Agriculture Plan)
3. To assist actively in the provision of agro-forestry business ventures to 200 Farmers
4. To increase annual transactions of livestock auction market from 2000 to 2500 heads (refer to Agriculture Plan)
5. To increase chicken meat production from 68 MT to 90 MT (refer to Agriculture Plan)
6. To increase market access of upland farmers from 232 to 300 farmers (refer to Agriculture Plan)
367
III. 1. To organize/ re-organize local partnerships on:
a. Sustainable critical area protection program by the end of CY 2007
b. Nogas Island mangroves and underwater garden by the end CY 2008.
c. Mt. Aliwliw nature resort and Mt. Nasog Nature’s Camp by the end of CY 20010
1. Policy Recommendations and Strategies
1.1 CRITICAL AREA PROTECTION
a. Critical watershed areas should be delineated and fully protected and recovered from rice farming encroachment to ensure protection of
whatever water resources are left.
b. The lessons of Milagrosa tree-planting initiative should be replicated municipal-wide under an adequately funded “Clean & Green” program.
1.2 AGRO-FORESTRY DEVELOPMENT
a. Initiatives and Funds
– The municipal government as the major stakeholder in its forestry development should invest substantially and should be financing its
own locally designed programs that specifically ensure potable water availability, ecological security and revenue generation.
– Implementation of pertinent forestry laws and regulations on mangrove resource pollution and other illegal practices should solicit active
involvement of the upland farmers and their families to make the effort community-based and sustainable.
368
b. Banana, Mango and Bamboo
– ---------*---Full production potential of and profitability of high value crops, like banana and mango should be widely promoted and
extensively supported to achieve high economic return and improve family income. The thrust should be coupled with future plans for
forward economic activities, e.g., processing and other ancillary industries.
– Anini-y grown bamboo is observed to be tougher and stouter than those produce in other towns. Bamboo craft business needs the year-
round raw material supply availability. Its attendant product marketing should be determined and properly put in place before it is started.
c. Livestock, Poultry and Dairy
– The LGU should actively assist in the collective marketing of the agro-forestry products until a farmer’s marketing cooperative is
functional to achieve higher productivity and profitability for the farmers.
1.3 INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT
– Number of farming households, product volume and role of women/children in agro-forestry should be the priority consideration in
locating upland farm to market road construction.
1.4 TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER
– The LGU should actively ensure appropriate technology transfer and focus its approach in the identification of the acceptable right crops
combination and right technology application in increasing the farmers’ productivity level and income earning capacity.
1.5 MANPOWER
- Creation of MENRO that would take the responsibility of enveironmental protection and conservation.

E.2 Implementing Mechanisms
A Clean and Green Task Group shall be created (composed of the Clean Team and the Green Team) from among selected persons and local Offices whose
tasks and functions have to do with health, nutrition and sanitation, environment and natural resources protection and development. One personnel shall be
designated by the LCE through a special order who shall provide fulltime staff work on ENR concerns.
374
The programs and projects enumerated below shall be coordinated and implemented by the Green Team. This task group and the listings of said programs
and projects serve as the mechanisms by which the municipal goals and objectives will bring about forestry development leading to the prevention of the
rapid depletion of forest resources and massive forest destruction. This mission with enough, on-time appropriation and staff with correct motivation can be
easily realized. This is envisioned to contribute to improved quality of life of the residents of Anini-y. As practiced, the OMA shall take the lead in activities
identified under the Agriculture sector development.
E3. Monitoring Mechanisms
The Forestry Plan expects to attain its over all goals and objectives at the end of CY 2015. Presented below are various report forms containing indicators
and the means that point out where are the implementers now in the process of attaining the desired ends. This will guide the implementers and the policy
makers in finding out if the program/ projects shall bring about the expected goals/ objectives. Furthermore, it shall provide the telltale sign if the strategies
and policies are acceptable to the people and are reflective of their aspirations – the improvement of the people’s quality of life. Reports shall be prepared and

A. PROFILE OF EXISTING SITUATION
1. Urban and Rural Household Population
Only 3.78% of the town’s populace reside in its Poblacion- the urban center. Incidentally, there is clear indication that the urbanization tempo of the
Poblacion is retrogressing while the rural area growth rate is increasing. Be that as it may, this area compared with the other areas or centers remains more
or less busy most time of the year due the presence of local institutions -especially educational, medical, administrative and religious institutions.
Compared with other municipalities in the province, jeepney and bus companies do not establish their waiting station within the vicinity of Poblacion as most
of the residents are outside of it. One-fifth of the rural populace lives west of the Poblacion from Sagua to Lisub B. Another one-fifth settles east of Poblacion
from Butuan to San Roque. One-fourth lives farther in the central-eastern cluster barangays of Magdalena to Casay. The fact remains for Anini-y that
84.57% of its households (15,811 persons) lies in areas along the national road. Its six upland barangays plus San Francisco that lies farthest east while
accessible to transportation are not well traveled most time of the year affecting its 3,959 residents.
2 Land Transportation
a. Road Network
a.1 Inventory of Roads
Anini-y has no railroad network. Cut horizontally across from Bayo Grande to San Francisco (PBM 1 at San Joaquin: 57631.78 - 93553.59} N85 -
52W; MBM 30 at Anini-y & Dao: 58501.18 - 81518.87} Anini-y is 12.06608 km. at its widest breadth. As of 2005, the 19.6034 km. national road
traversing it is only 25.6435% paved with concrete or asphalt. It remained so since 1997. DPWH private contractors maintain the remaining dusty
road sections. Ditching, graveling, earth filling, grading and sometimes, rolling are the standard maintenance works.
The 3.6520 km. concrete road sections start from Lisub B to Nato and is breached by 0.210 km. on both sides of Butuan Bridge. Other sections are
within San Roque, 0.1300 km.; in Magdalena, 0.2970 km; and in Casay, 0.1800km. San Francisco boasts of 0.7680 kilometer asphalt road section.
383
The winding Iba-San Francisco stretch deserves immediate widening work, especially those sections that have dangerous blind horizontal curves
and bordering on deep cliffs.

The 1.3150 km. municipal roads are all located in Poblacion and 40 meters of these remain to be unpaved. But, most are in dire need of major
repairs. Only T. Fornier Drive and portion of Nepomuceno St. conform to the DPWH standards. Barangay roads’ total length is 40.2808 km. Nato
has 0.1000 km. –the shortest and Igpalge has 7.5000 km. –the longest. The cumulative length of concrete barangay roads is 3.4639 km. The rest
consists of gravel and earthfill. Bayo Pequeño, Poblacion and Salvacion have no barangays roads.
385
Access roads are inter-connecting some upland barangays. Particularly, San Ramon and Igtumarom are connected to Tagaytay, which can also be
reached via the gravel road from the coastal barangay of Fatima, T. Fornier. Other upland barangays that are connected with the coastal barangays
are: Milagrosa from Mabuyong; Igpalge from Casay Viejo; and Nasuli-C from Iba. On rainy months these barangay roads get eroded or muddy
making these impassable for any transportation plying these routes. The Igpalge-Casay Viejo road has a section that violates the horizontal and
vertical curve limits standards. Nato–San Ramon and Bayo Grande–Tagaytay FMR have been neglected and are closed temporarily to vehicles.
San Francisco is also connected to a road network with the town of T. Fornier via Barangay Samalague, now badly eroded and deteriorated.
a.2 Drainage and Sewerage System
Canals on both sides of the roads serve as drainage and waterways. In the absence of rivers cutting across roads, or where bridges are not
feasible culverts are built buried across the road to cause water to flow into canals and rivers. However, the road grade level of Bayo Pequeño is
low and the present road canal is very shallow and cannot accommodate the sudden gush of waters from the fields.
Anini-y’s rugged landscape actually works on its favor. Its drainage pattern follows the course of its major rivers, tributaries and streams. The run-off
waters in the forested uplands and grasslands of Tagaytay-San Ramon-Igtumarom area are widely distributed to more than one-half of the coastal
area of Anini-y while those from the other upland areas of Igpalge-Milagrosa-Nasuli C are safely scattered on the remaining section. Generally, lose
of life and damage to property in the municipality are caused by river currents that momentarily surge and abruptly subside due to big difference in
elevation from uplands to low-lying areas in short distances. Other cause is tidal surge along the coastlines especially when high tide meets the
flooded river disgorges. The long stretch of coral reefs along the shores takes care of this in most places, except Butuan and Nato.
The existing drainage system of the municipality is adequate to meet the present requirements and is not much of a problem to infrastructure, its
built-up areas and agricultural lands. However, drainage in front of the municipal hall at Poblacion should be studied now.

Twenty-three rivers and brooks cut the national road passing the coastal barangays of Anini-y into several sections.

a.3 Inventory of Bridges
Bayo Pequeño reinforced concrete box culvert (RCBC) at 2 lineal meters -the shortest bridge in Western Visayas serves such purpose. But, present
reality demands that a two-lane unit should be built in its stead. Talisayan, Lisub and Nato have reinforced concrete deck girder (RCDG) bridges
while Magdalena and Nasuli C have Steel I-Beam Bridges. Spanning Iba and Casay Viejo, the 54.88 lineal meters Nasuli Pre-Stress Bridge is the
longest concrete bridge. The next longest is Iboc between Mabuyong and Casay, which concreting is on-going. The rests are bailey bridges. The
Sira-an Bailey Bridge needs immediate conversion to RCDG and re-orientation of its approach from a sharp curve. Mention is being referred to the
“bridge without a river” in Nasog as it could be easily converted to RCBC. Its abutments rest on solid rock.
Sitio Minoro Ingga, Nasuli C needs a bridge for its children to go to primary school at Nasuli C Proper, elementary at Iba and secondary education
at St. Therese’s in Casay or Igpalge NHS. Milagrosa needs the same –a bridge to span the river separating it from Igpalge and its elementary and
secondary schools. Two Bailey Bridges are needed to connect Magdalena to Panabigan and its upland sitios of Paet, Igcanipa and Cababaan and
their agricultural products. A “foot bridge” is presently servicing the transport needs of Sitio Panabigan residents, though.
By type of administration, the bridges may be classified as national, provincial, municipal and barangay. Table T3 shows this classification with data
on the number, length and percentage to the total length.

b. Trends in traffic volume
While the people are getting more mobile now, traffic in Anini-y will still be very manageable in 10 years time, unless the main traffic route to Iloilo
via the fast deteriorating mountain pass is re-routed via Anini-y, whence traffic will become busy.
At present, vehicular trips have become more regular and available every 30 minutes. Any delay in travel will be due the passengers, periodic
breakdown of vehicles and those that will be caused by regular road maintenance and new road concrete pavement projects. It is anticipated by the
local residents that as soon as the national road going to San Jose is paved with concrete, many households will be buying their own vehicle for
private or public utility as there are many locale that can afford this luxury and necessity. By this development, it is projected that trips to San Jose
will be available every 15 minutes by 2008.
c. Inventory of Transport Vehicles/ Mode of Transportation Plying the Locality
c.1 Iloilo – Anini-y and vice versa
Five passenger buses of the school bus type ply the T. Fornier - Iloilo via Anini-y route now. These buses sleep either at the Antique Bus Terminal
in San Pedro, Molo in Iloilo City or at various points at T. Fornier and Anini-y where its drivers reside. These buses pick up or unload passengers,
baggage and/ or transported goods along the way, thus while Iloilo could be conveniently reached in 2 hours, travel time usually lasts for 3-4 hours.
These buses leave on a scheduled basis and make one trip per day. If a bus leaves at dawn or early in the morning for Iloilo -the earliest at 5 AM, it
goes back in the afternoon arriving Anini-y anytime from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM. A bus that leaves the city in the morning -the earliest at 6 AM, arrives
Anini-y between 9 to 10 in the morning and goes back anytime between 12:00AM to 1PM. Last trip for Iloilo in the morning is at 7:00 while the last
bus leaves Iloilo at 3:30 PM. This tail ender reaches Anini-y at about 7 o’clock in the evening.
389
c.2 San Jose – Anini-y and vice versa
The Anini-y-San Jose via Casay route is now served by 23 passenger jeepneys of various made and sizes. The sector has organized the Anini-y
Jeepney Operators and Personnel Association, AJOPA to put order in their operations but only 3 units of the Millares’ 5 jeepneys have joined. The
other 2 units operates as “jokers” choosing the “best times of the day” when plying their return trips to Anini-y. The AJOPA schedules a trip to the
capital town every 15 minutes and 30 minutes interval for trips back home.

c.3 Within Anini-y
Tricycle is Anini-y’s main transport service for travels inside and outside the town. Several units are stationed either in Poblacion or at barangays
where the operators/ owners reside. Other than passenger vehicles, trucking services in the municipality are provided by six-wheelers to haul
sand and gravel, bamboo poles, cement, palay, hog, cattle and other livestock, and other bulky materials. For ease, comfort and expeditious
mobility private cars and motorcycles are operated exclusively for the owners’ use.
3. Marine Transportation
Motorized and non-motorized bancas for fishing are in some occasions used to transport passengers and goods. Nogas Island’s excursionists would rent
a pump boat to get to the island especially every May 17 -the one-day Nogas fiesta during which time rental of pump boats becomes a prolific activity.
Periodically during the fishing season from October to March, Salvacion becomes “anchorage” to 20 or more commercial fishing boats as “lanchas”
converge not far from the shoreline to gather provisions or stay to refuel for some fishing trips before returning to Manila. There are no other types of
transportation nor any available marine transportation facilities and services present in the municipality, e.g., shipping and ports, railroad and air
transportation, and there is no big potential for developing such means of transportation, hence no discussion is hereto made.
4. Other Transport Facilities
The passenger-goods movement in Anini-y follows that of the established road network. The established waiting/ embarkation points are: Junction Fatima-
National Road (outside of the planning area); Mabuyong-Milagrosa-national road junction; Casay Viejo-Igpalge-national road junction; and, Iba-Nasuli C-
national road junction. Bus and jeepney terminals or parking area may be identified in the vicinity of Poblacion Public Market and the privately owned
cockpit.
It is observed that vehicles double park along the roadside, thereby creating congestion on this road section where people are also crowding, especially so
when cock derby is timed with market day. Unless police action is initiated, probable accidents may come on the way during market day in this area.
391
ANINI-Y COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN 2006-
2015
In the absence of terminal and parking facilities, it is obvious that local truckers, bus companies and jeepney operators somehow have spaces used as
terminal areas. However, these lots are limited in sizes that they used the roadsides adjacent to their residences as extension areas for their vehicles to
park.
5. Land Area/ Uses
Local roads adequacy is determined vis-à-vis the area of Anini-y in terms of existing arable or agricultural lands and built-up areas compared to road
standard of 1.5km of roads/100 hectares of arable land. Per the LAND USE SECTOR, the total arable lands and built-up areas are 4860.00 and 73.56
hectares (Table T5), respectively. Based on these figures versus the existing road length in Table T1, Anini-y has rural road-arable land ratio of 0.8288
km. per 100 hectares (using the formula: Existing Rural Road x 100/ Arable Land x 100 = existing rural road-arable land ratio). Anini-y’s roads are short
by 0.6712km per 100ha based on standard. This road inadequacy is equivalent to 32.6203 km in length.
Using the formula: Existing Urban Road Length x 1000 divided by Urban Population x 1000 = the number of kilometer/1000 population the existing urban
road-urban population ratio is 1.7212/1,000 population. Compared with the ideal 2.4 km. per 1000 urban population ratio, Anini-y urban area is short of
0.6788 km/1000 population or a total of 0.5186 km. in length.

During the 3-year period 2003-05 vehicular accidents averaged 21 incidents every year, up from the last century average of 8-9 accidents. These 63 road
accidents occurred in the streets of 19 Anini-y barangays involving 24 vehicle to property incidences; 20 vehicle to vehicle mishaps; 18 vehicle to pedestrian
accidents and 1 vehicle to animal accident. Three upland barangays are spared from any vehicle mishap and a barangay along the national road –Mabuyong.
Over this 3-year period, accidents had happened in all barangays along the highway especially during April, May and January. Nato, Poblacion, Talisayan and
Magdalena each registered an identical number, 8 accidents -the highest number of accidents by barangay. These barangays are considered waiting areas for
tricycles. August with 1 accident is least accident-prone. Siraan with 6 road accidents established a record as to specific area where these accidents happened
during the period.
Table T7 displays the flood prone areas in Anini-y. However, flooding caused by reasons indicated do not necessarily cause a delay in traffic but just a slowing
down at the affected points. While they are recurring annually, the DPWH response through its regular road maintenance program has always been more of a
temporary measure. Anyhow, the whole stretch of San Francisco – Guinsang-an Road is on due for concrete paving by 2008. The table further shows there is
no record of flooding that occur periodically every 5 or 10 or 100 years.

B. DETERMINATION OF DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND

PRESENTATION OF PROJECTED OR FUTURE SCENARIOS
1. Present Development Gaps and Needs
Analysis of the present conditions prevailing in the municipality relative to transportation, the following gaps and development needs are:
a. The existing length of urban roads at 1.3150km. is short of 0.5186 km. based on the standard road-population ratio of 2.4 km/1000 population
b. The present total length of barangay roads (40.2808km.) in the municipality is below the required length of 74.0034 km. when based from the ideal
rural road requirement of 1.5 km per 100 hectares.
c. Access roads connecting the upland barangays to the lowland/coastal barangays are prone to erosion, particularly, during the rainy season making
these roads impassable for vehicles.
d. The system of earthfilling and re-graveling of dusty national roads without corresponding passes of roller seemingly becomes impractical as fills just get
carried away by rains and make travel difficult and inconvenient.
e. The 16 bridges identified need to be concretized and improved particularly, the approaches on both ends to avoid perennial erosion.
f. The canals on roadsides need to be improved as flooding occurs during heavy rains that overflow into the roads.
g. The drainage and sewerage system in the urban area must be improved and installation of sewerage system should be considered.
397
h. Inadequate length of river control structure at Barangay Nato allows the flood water from the river to inundate the low-lying residential areas of the
barangay.
2. Future Scenarios
a. The expansion of the urban area to cover the barangays of Butuan, Poblacion, Sagua and Talisayan demands an urban road networ k of from 10.308
kilometers (compared to existing road network of 7.285 km. ) to 12.8952km. in 2010 over a 10 year period.
b. The paving with concrete all barangay and national roads would ease erosion and facilitate faster transport of goods and services and reduce
maintenance expenses of transport vehicles.
c. The improvement of the canals, drainage and sewerage systems would eventually minimize the flooding problem, which while not really be a present
problem, could be a potential concern as urban areas expand.
1. Goals: By the end of 2015,
An efficient movement of people, goods and services brought about by an improved road network and other transport related systems.
2 Objectives: To achieve its main goal, the LGU shall:
398
a. Re-classify, improve and expand existing road network by 2006-015.
b. Facilitate the concreting of national, urban and rural roads by 2008-10.
c. Improve and install appropriate drainage and sewerage system by 2009-15.
1. Policy Recommendations
a. It should be the role of the LGU to establish linkages with national agencies in fund sourcing for the needed capital investment to improve the
present conditions of the municipal transport facilities and services.
b. The municipal LGU shall at all times work hand in hand with the barangays LGUs in the identification of development needs related to
transportation as well as in funds generation and project implementation.
2. Strategies
a. Construction of a central road trunk to which farm to market roads in the uplands are interconnected
b. Detail/ designation, training and equipping of PNP personnel that will serve as traffic management unit
c. Improved traffic management measures and strict enforcement of traffic rules and regulations
3. Targets
399
a. 100 % of national road concretized by year 2010.
b. 50 % of rural and access roads improved by year 2012.
c. Build at least 58 km. of additional rural roads by 2015.
d. All barangay and national roadsides provided with adequate drainage system by 2015.

A. PROFILE AND ANALYSIS OF THE EXISTING SITUATIONS
A.1 Telecommunication Service27s and Facilities
a. TELEPHONE SERVICES/ TELEPHONE FRANCHISE
27
The telecommunication services included telephone, telegraph/ telex/ telegraphic transfer service, meteorological and other telecommunication services.
402
The Telephone Office (TELOF) used to implement the Municipal Telephone Act that mandates the LGU to provide telephone services for paying public and free calls to
government agencies or entities in other towns is now transferred to Aklan. The other 5 public pay phone stations in Anini-y are also gone. They used to send and receive only
long distance calls for and of their clientele’s national or international audience. PT&T and 3 Radio Marine units were then installed in the franchise holders’ houses. Radio
Marine service then was more on shore-to-ship calls. Their services were limited by the absence of office branch in areas where calls are being sent and by the availability of
Antique Electric Cooperative (ANTECO) power supply.
Only PLDT then has a stand-by power generator. It was renting its 25 sqm. office space at P1000/mo. in one of the “carenderias” in Poblacion. The public preferred them over
the others due their more personalized and localized service, and lower call rates: P27-33 for the first 3 minutes and P4-6 per additional minutes within the Philippines,
depending on the area called. International calls were made not lower than P500, again using the prevalent P50 to a dollar exchange rate. Additional charge per call was for the
10% value-added tax. Repairs and servicing of these facilities were on case to case basis and were extended by their Iloilo branch technicians. PLDT was regularly conducting a
quarterly check-up service of their local branch. The establishment of cell sites in the municipality by the 2 telecommunications giants – SMART International
Telecommunications (2003) and the Globe Telecommunications, Inc. (2004) covering more than ½ of the municipal area drastically revolutionized the local telecommunications
scenario.

b. POSTAL SERVICES
The Philippine Postal Corporation (PhilPost) in Anini-y operates through its main post office at the municipal hall and the 2-room community postal station at
Casay Community Center. An Officer-In Charge heads the office and is assisted by 2 letter carriers. Casay extension office services the 9 easternmost
barangays of the municipality. It is manned by 1 of the 2 letter carriers. Mail distribution is done daily and up to barangays within 5km from the 2 stations. Mails
for the uplands are sent through person of their confidence from that barangay or in the case of money order the addressee is contacted through couriers to
pick up their mail from the office. Nobody has yet to report any loss of mail due to mail pilferage. Any delay in mail delivery could be caused by weather or
mechanical trouble from the provincial or regional delivery vans. At times, the OIC Postmaster himself facilitates letter distribution chores. The present PhilPost
staff reveals a downturn in volume of transactions. It was only in 1999 when an increasing trend in the number of letters, packages and money orders sent and
received was noticed. Then, monthly average receipts rose to 2,178 letters, 27 packages and a total of 219 money orders in year 2000 from 2009 letters/mo.,
16 packages/mo., and 182 money orders.
The letter carriers still use 3 motorcycles, weighing scale for

monitoring office manned by 2 technical staff, but later pulled out their facilities at Sira-an Hot Spring.
d. Other Telecommunication Services
At present, 4 mobile cellphone services are available in Anini-y, especially in western barangays up to parts of Salvacion. Moreover, Lawigan cell site covers
San Francisco. Other barangays have located and marked specific areas within their locality with telecommunications signal. With the advent of mobile
cellphone those who can afford have bought their personal cellphone and install their respective antenna to make the connections. Despite efforts by the
LGU, no data is available if how many of the residents have this personal facility. All facilities listed under column 2000 are no longer operational.

No local radio or television station operates in the municipality. However, almost all households have transistor radios and stereos. Many houses have TV
and some of them subscribe to a local cable TV station run by a private corporation. These modern amenities link the people with the local, national and
international scenes and events. As there are no local broadcast media in the municipality, the broadcasts come from stations located in the capital town 40
kilometers away, from other parts of the region and Manila.

Panay News and other tabloids are national and regional newspapers published either in San Jose de Buenavista, Iloilo or Manila City.
407
B. DETERMINATION OF DEVELOPMENT NEEDS
AND PRESENTATION OF PROJECTED OR FUTURE SCENARIOS
B.1 Current problems and requirements:
a. The municipality is out of E-mail and Fax services way. Something has to be done about these.
b. The reliability of telephone station service is dependent on ANTECO whose record on supplying power needs is not much to be desired.
c. Operating a household level telephone service is not viable by present.
d. Majority of the public does not use or have heard of the telegraphic transfer service. Existing franchise holders served this requirement through “padala
gram” or “peragram” service.
e. The number of letter carriers currently employed is enough per the present letter carrier-population ratio of one per 5,000 population. Moreover, access
to direct voice contact through use of cellular phones rendered most of their services unnecessary.
B.2 Projected Scenarios and Future Requirements
a. Time has come for the LGU lobby for Anini-y’s inclusion to Globe’s and SMART’s expansion phase by passing a Sanggunian resolution to requesting for
the coverage of the eastern barangays. Moreover, the need for household level telephone system shall have been rendered obsolete when cellular
mobile phone will become an affordable personal and household amenity.
408
b. The present manpower on communication services while below the standard requirement of 1 letter carrier per 5,000 population is observed to be
adequate even for the next 10 years. However, the need may be felt onwards so that additional manpower may be needed only after the 5 th year. Again,
the need for them shall be greatly reduced once there is a municipal-wide signal available for mobile phones. This shall be when service providers will
have installed their satellite cellular site antennae to cover the whole municipality. In this regard, the municipality must lobby for the inclusion of Anini-y in
these establishments’ expansion priorities.
c. The present rate of increase in population and increasing economic status of the residents, Magdalena-San Roque area being a rapidly progressing
population center will have urgent needs for public calling stations and postal services and facilities in the future. This is the area that has no long
distance pay phone and postal extension station. The opening of the Magdalena-Igtumarom stretch of the central trunk of the proposed municipal road
system will likewise increase the demand for these services and facilities in this area.
d. The present trend towards globalization, E-Commerce and E-Governance will push all LGUs to be connected to the communication mainstream to
enable them to cope up with fast changing technologies and response on development. Such demand will be limited only by the availability of stable and
sufficient power supply, as all electronic communications gobbles up a lot of kilowatts of power. Anini-y being at the end of the power transmission lines
will be severely affected.
e. Entertainment and leisure has shifted from the live arena of the cockpit and the ballroom plaza to the living and music rooms of the households. The
demand for electronic and canned entertainment shall greatly increase as soon as cable TV services become affordable and its quality improved.
409

WATER SUPPLY
“The MURMUR of a gentle brook is but a stern warning to man:

“Abuse us and time will come when a ton of your gold can’t buy even a droplet of my pure water”
413
1. Levels of Water Supply
In every barangays of Anini-y, there is always at least one facility that supports the water needs of the community to last them over the longest drought that may occur.
The 3 levels of water supply service in the municipality are namely:
• LEVEL I – These are point sources generally found in rural areas where houses are thinly scattered to justify a distribution system;
• LEVEL II – communal faucet systems, generally for rural areas where houses are densely clustered enough to justify a piped
distribution system providing a number of households with faucets; and,
• LEVEL III – individual supply typical model system for 3 levels of water supply service, generally found in bigger communities the
capacity of which source is enough to supply the needs of the residents in the area.
a. Waterworks System or LEVEL III
Eight (8) barangay-level waterworks systems are in various state of being today in Anini-y. Their respective barangay councils run those of Bayo
Pequeño, Igpalge, Igtumarom, Milagrosa, Salvacion and Tagaytay. Magdalena and Casay barangay water associations manage theirs. All
systems derive waters from springs within their barangay and are of the full gravity type. While other sources are available, only those listed
in Table WS1 below are tapped. However, the systems service only a limited number of households in the 14 puroks out of 38 puroks found
in these 8 barangays. All waterworks being barangay level type has only the spring/collection box and distribution box aside from the
pipelines as facilities. Milagrosa uses lines of hoses instead of the usual pipes. Four (4) households in Casay and 1 in Igpalge that have the
means to buy electric pumps utilize this modern device to enable them to avail of the water from their waterworks system.

The Caniogan Spring in Igtumarom is the smallest among Level III water sources producing only 3,400 liters/ day of water. The Igtagubang Spring of
Bayo Pequeño yields the biggest at 54,000 liter per day. The 2 Iguhag Springs of Casay come close with 48,000 and 47,300 liters per day
yield.

TOTAL
From these utilities a total of 1,638 household residents benefit daily. What cannot be quantified are the number of users, guests and visitors of the resort but
it is estimated that the total consumption of all users in barangays with Level III system amounted to 79,263 liters of water per day.
416
Magdalena waterworks has the biggest area coverage having 99 household connections but supplies less than the required 60 li/capita/day. Each household
was paying P12 monthly maintenance fee. It is now reduced to P8.00. Next is Salvacion utility that services 44 households. Each pays P10 monthly dues.
The Mabuyong waterworks stopped after 1999 but was serving all of its 3 puroks with 35 domestic water connections. Due to non-payments of their P10
monthly maintenance contributions the management was not able to provide the needed services when some sections of the distribution lines were
damaged. Casay and Tagaytay waterworks cover the least number of connections, 9 and 6 respectively. Municipal-wide, 272 households are connected to
these various waterworks system. Also listed are the 6 households at Bayo Pequeño that uses water for their small ice water and ice candy business.
b. LEVEL II System
Twelve (12) Level II systems operate presently in Anini-y excluding the Bayo Grande project that is on-going as of this write up. Ten of them tap
waters from spring by enclosing them with concrete boxes that collect the spring water, which are then piped to the barangay settling cum
distribution tank. From this tank a system of distribution lines are installed where communal faucets are connected. This is commonly called
the full gravity type.
Moreover, 6 out of the 8 utilities listed in Table WS1 above are the same system under this category for having sections in their distribution
system that provide communal water faucets to the beneficiary households for their domestic and other needs. For Bayo Pequeño, the
combined spring output of Lawihaw and Igtagubang Springs services the needs of additional 295 people in its 3 puroks. Casay through its
12 communal faucets served 186 more Casaynons from Greenhills, Blue Ridge, White Plains and Greenland Subdivisions. On the other
hand, the Lawihaw and Libtug Springs further augment Caniogan Spring to serve 223 more residents of Igtumarom while Tinaba Spring
augments Mt. Banderahan’s output to serve 188 uplanders of Tagaytay. In Salvacion, a second spring at Dapog Brook is tapped to service
the domestic needs of 300 more barangay residents while an additional 275 household population of Igpalge became happy when Bungol
Spring was tapped to augment the Igdila source.

Iba and Lisub B systems are purely communal respectively benefiting 463 and 443 locals. The first find its water source from Mt.Banderahan and the
latter get theirs from Imbukalan.Spring. The private restaurant within Siraan Hot Sring Resort and the resort itself get free commercial
connections and water services from the utility the LGU has established for the resort. The same system provides free water for the
domestic use of the staff of Philvolcs –an institution in the area. This Sira-an waterworks is not benefiting any household in Nato barangay.
The remaining 2 communal water systems are privately owned. These utilities likewise use pumps to suck water from the wells and lift it an elevated
tank or container from where, water is distributed by pipes to nearby family members’ households. These can be found in Timbobog, Sagua
and San Francisco. Both systems served 10 and 21 persons, respectively. Capacity-wise, Timbobog unit is the biggest at 38.58 li/sec.
Nato’s is far second with 2.77 li/sec barely nosing that of Iba that varies from 5.40 to 0.20 li/sec depending on the season. The rest have
capacities between 0.22 and 0.74 li/sec. All systems benefit a total of 2,539 household residents in 27 puroks of 11 barangays through more
than 89 communal faucets.
c. LEVEL I System
Shallow wells are the most prevalent among various levels of water supply systems in the whole municipality. Scattered all over Anini-y are 754 units
benefiting 10, 395 household populations or equivalent to 51.39% of the projected Anini-y population. Butuan has the most number of
shallow wells closely followed by Sagua and Lisub A. Igtumarom, Magdalena, San Roque and Tagaytay reported to have no shallow well.
Milagrosa has just a single unit followed by San Ramon with 3 and Salvacion 8 units. It is noted that all residents of Butuan, Lisub A,
Poblacion, and Talisayan are 100% served only by shallow wells. Sagua has 10 of its residence being served by a Level II facility that is
actually a modified shallow well. On the other hand, the 12 deep wells that are still functional service the needs of 389 local residents while
29 improved springs provided water to another 1,596 people. Mabuyong, Milagrosa and San Francisco are the barangay with the m ost
numbers of deep wells –an indication that water is somewhat difficult to access in these areas.

However, there is always spring water as alternative source. Mabuyong has available 7 improved spring sources to service its need that could be
integrated into a waterworks system. Salvacion has a source in Purok 1 that serves all the barangay residents during summer months in
case water in other spring sources gets scarce.
d. Other Water Sources
Table WS5 below indicates 37 undeveloped springs served the need of 592 household populations in Casay, Casay Viejo, Igpalge, Mabuyong,
Nato, Sagua, San Francisco, San Ramon, and Tagaytay. These sources must be studied and determined whether it can be developed
economically into improved springs or may be converted either into communal type or the waterworks system greater number of
beneficiaries in a wider coverage area.
Like the undeveloped spring, open dug wells are very susceptible to impurities and contamination, thus highly recommended for immediate study
and improvement. In Anini-y, there are 103 units of open dug wells benefiting 1,336 residents. These people can easily become carriers of
vector diseases as the sources can become the breeding places for mosquitoes and similar insects. These facilities are found in Butuan,
Casay, Casay Viejo, Iba, Igpalge, Igtumarom, Mabuyong, Nato, Salvacion, San Francisco, San Ramon, San Roque, Tagaytay, and Talisayn.
The most numbers of open dug wells are in Igpalge and San Francisco with 24 and 23, respectively followed by Igtumarom with 17 units and
San Ramon with 13 units of them.
Table WS5 further identifies the areas where water is scarce some time of the year. This access problem is indicated by barangays using rainwater
collection tanks. In the case of Anini-y, 28 persons in Casay make use of rainwater collected by their 5 tanks while Igpalge has 3 rainwater
tanks, benefiting 19 household residents. It was likewise observed that some years ago, there were water peddlers in Magdalena Proper but
the construction of their Level III waterworks made them obsolete.

2. Other Water-related Data
a. Watershed Areas
The emerging urban center of Anini-y – Butuan-Poblacion-Sagua-Talisayan-Lisub A cluster will have future problem on water supply. These barangays
clusters are located in the coastal area of the municipality and do not include within its perimeter a watershed area. Other barangays that have not identified
their watershed area are Bayo Pequeño, Casay Viejo, Igpalge, and San Roque. Of these 4 barangays, only Casay Viejo is a legitimate coastal barangay and
has no watershed area. The other 3 barangays have existing or at one time have piped water system and therefore should delineate their respective
watershed areas.
427
The Watershed Data indicates 14 barangays that have identified watershed areas they considered as critical for their sustainable water supply generation.
The area of watershed of Casay (0.25), Iba (1.50), Igtumarom (5.00), San Francisco (4.00), and San Ramon (1.50) equivalent to 12.25 hectares presently
need an immediate and massive reforestation as they are mostly denuded. Bayo Grande, Magdalena, Milagrosa, Lisub B, Nato, Salvacion and Tagaytay (in
Mount Pogpog) Watershed cover a sizeable area and likewise need to be surveyed and delineated first before any reforestation activity is started. In one of
the Salvacion watershed a landslide has occurred damaging their spring box.
Among the existing watershed areas, the 2 hectares Mabuyong Watershed at Igdulit has trees that are growing robustly but some animals that happened to
graze in the area destroyed many small trees. Another 2-hectare watershed at Nasuli C has small trees recently planted on site. The more advance and
much wider are the watershed of Tagaytay –Mt. Banderahan Watershed is 7-10 hectares wide and the Talangban-Tagaytay Watershed is 3 hectares. Mount
Pogpog also in Tagaytay is bigger than the two sites.
b. Potential Water Sources
Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeño, Igpalge, Igtumarom, Milagrosa, Salvacion and Tagaytay indicated to have enough water and are presently not concerned with
this problem. Unlike Lisub B, Mabuyong, Magdalena, San Ramon and San Roque, they have water sources that can supply them a lot of water but they
need also a lot of money to rehabilitate their mismanaged waterworks and augment them with nearby water sources.
The future urban cluster barangays southwest of the municipality can tap the privately owned modified shallow well at Timbobog, Sagua that can be
easily converted into a waterworks or tap the 45-cm. San Ramon Spring with a capacity enough to supply the needs of approximately 8 barangays. This
spring can be augmented with the Iyaga and Sanbuaya Springs yielding 5 inches of water even during summer season. On the other hand, Poblacion
can tap the waters of Tuno Spring of San Ramon while San Roque can be serviced by an extension from the Salvacion waterworks .
428
Barangays Casay, Casay Viejo, Iba, Mabuyong, Nasuli C and San Francisco viewed as long shot the tapping of Camandagan and Nasuli A (Gigi) Springs,
both in the municipality of T. Fornier for their water supply needs. These springs as estimated, can provide them more than enough water if, they have
enormous sum of money to finance the construction of the waterworks system. Individually, Casay, Casay Viejo, and Mabuyong can develop the Talisay
source that has a 2-inch diameter spring. Moreover, the 6-inch diameter Igtiring Spring in Milagrosa could likewise augment their need but they must install a
4-kilometer pipeline from the source to the coverage area. This spring source when developed in tandem with adjacent springs in Milagrosa could well
supply the need of this populated barangay clusters including Magdalena. San Francisco, Nasuli C and Iba are nearer to Gigi Springs that has a 1li/sec
capacity and another adjacent with a 3-inch diameter volume.
c. Groundwater Pollution
It has been observed that when homeowners construct their wells, water starts to ooze at a certain depth. This soil saturation level varies from
barangay to barangay. According to studies, aerobic bacteria are active up to the depth of 10 ft. Thus, water supply sources that have water
tables less than 10 feet deep are prone to pollution and promotion of the growth of bacteria. In this regard, Barangays Butuan, portion of
Casay, Nato, Sagua, Salvacion portion of San Francisco, San Ramon, Tagaytay, and Talisayan must be extra careful in the construction of
their water facilities. The reported saturation level of these barangays varies from 2 feet up to 10 feet. Lisub A and portion of Poblacion,
especially near the shore must also be cautious being somewhat densely populated as reportedly, some of their areas are found to have
about 12 feet saturation level and over population pressure is bound to cause groundwater pollution.
The rest of the barangays have more than 15 feet to dig before the ground starts to get wet. Mabuyong reported to reach 35-40 feet before the soil
began to produce water. All shallow wells in Nato and Sagua, and portions of Butuan, Casay, and Salvacion have water tables within 10
feet deep.
429
They must be examined for pathological organisms especially those that exceed their maximum drawdown or when more than 40 persons are using a well.
Talisayan with 12-feet water table may also be considered for testing due to their overcrowding. Wells in these areas found to be near the farms are prone to
groundwater pollution due to use of agricultural chemicals that can easily percolate underground. They must be examined also for chemical pollution.
Shallow wells in Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeño, Casay, Casay Viejo, Igpalge, Mabuyong and San Roque find difficulty in pumping water out of their wells as
they have water tables more than 25 feet, which is the design depth for most jetmatic pumps. Among thse barangays, Mabuyong suffers most as they have
to dig 40-60 feet before water flow stabilize.
3. Water Resources
a. Surface Water
Iboc, Nato, Nasuli and Talisayan Rivers are four major river systems of Anini-y. Their tributaries of creeks, brooks and some surface waters served
these rivers. Into Iboc River flows the Casay Brook, Sapa Panta, the brooks of Pilihan, Talisay, and Bongol from Igpalge, Lanas Spring
waters also from Igpalge stream into this river. The Iguhag Spring that produces the Iguhag Falls, likewise winds its way into Iboc.
Nato River originates from parts of San Ramon and is feed by the creeks of Igdacuton and Marakil. The river is augmented inside Nato by the waters
flowing from the creeks of Kansilayan, Sambuaya, Iraya, Durog, and Iyaga. Nasuli River has its feeder creeks of Nagluay, Gurong-gurong,
Igbalogo, Sapa Ate, and Layab-layab. Into it flow also the Pedro Timon Creek, the Ilawod Turo-turo, and Iraya Turo-turo of Casay Viejo.
Talisayan River headwaters emanate from the Tagaytay spring waters of Durog, Cueba, Tinaba, Igbasya, Banderahan, Talangban, and
Tagaytay. Upstream flows into it the Santol, Igbasya, and Intigban Creeks of Lisub B while Igtugas and Igtatabo Creeks of Talisayan
meander into it downstream.

However, some creeks and brooks directly empty themselves into the sea. These are Bayo Grande’s Bucao-bucao Brook, the 4 brooks of Butuan,
Lisub Creek in Lisub A, Imbahuyan Creek in Lisub B, Siraan and Tinigbasan Creeks of Nato, Poblacion’s Simsim Brook, Bungol Brook of
Sagua, Dapog and Igdaganas Brooks of Salvacion, the 4 creeks of San Francisco There are also surface water sources that are potential for
impounding structures but only the irrigation water and facilities of the irrigation projects of Lisub A, Lisub-Talisayan, Nato-Butuan, and the
Igtugas project are presently found in Anini-y. In some Sagua farms where aquifer is very shallow that waters just flow out of the ground
during rainy months, 4 wells with large openings had been constructed for irrigation purposes. A unit of this type of surface water can each
be found also in Casay and Mabuyong but were improved with concrete pipe culvert or old metal drum. Talisayan has another unit that is so
wide that others call it a swimming pool.
• Water Quality
Waters found in Sira-an Hot Spring has mineral contents and that by classification falls under Class B or Recreational Water Class. It is used for primary
contact recreation such as bathing and swimming, the area being a tourism destination. All other surface waters found in Anini-y fall under the
classification Class D. Its uses are for agriculture, irrigation, livestock, watering, etc.
• Groundwater Sources
Anini-y is cut into small sections by rivers and streams. From this network of water bodies lie water-providing influents into the aquifers. Table WS6
indicates all barangays has aquifers with abundant waters except that some areas have very deep-lying aquifers, i.e.; Magdalena, Mabuyong,
and Casay. All the rest have shallow aquifers except those of Bayo Grande and Pequeño, and Casay Viejo -little bit deeper, at 30-35 feet.
However, since the 3 major rivers of Anini-y have their headwaters in the San Ramon-Tagaytay-Igtumarom uplands, efforts must be exerted for
this vast watershed area to be reforested and prevent the resettlement of areas within critical distance from these sources.
433
Waters in the upstream of all surface water bodies are still of good quality. Cascades in the source zones promote absorption of dissolve oxygen
into the streams. Downstream, saline water intrusion up to this point in time is not a problem. The aquifers from which wells derived their waters
have no problems as to harmful level of colliform count. However, waters appeared reddish in some wells in Bayo Pequeño (Purok 1); Casay
(Districts 2, 4 & 5); Casay Viejo (Durog); Mabuyong (Purok 1 & 3); Nasuli C (Centro, Nagluay, Apog-apog and Iraya); Nato (Purok 2); San
Francisco (Purok 1); and, San Roque (Purok 1& 2). On the other hand, water in some wells taste somewhat tart such as Purok 2 in Bayo
Pequeño; District 5 in Casay; Durog in Casay Viejo; Purok 3 in Iba; Centro and Bungsod in Igpalge; Purok 3 in Mabuyong; Centro, Nagluay,
Iraya, Apog-apog and Igbalogo in Nasuli C; Purok 2 in San Francisco; Purok 5 in San Roque; and, Purok 1 in Talisayan.
It is generally observed that surface waters near its human settlements or when they pass by residential areas, quality deteriorates and renders unfit for
human use, except irrigation and watering purposes. Pesticides, suspended solids from domestic garbage thrown into and soil erosion have
contributed immensely in its deterioration. The rivers became shallow that only very small freshwater fishes survive. The weak flow of water due
to its small volume cannot overcome the sand bar deposited by the waves thus, deterring the waters to freely empty into the sea. Water
temperature as this point is much higher than its source.
The creeks of Poblacion, Sagua, and Butuan are observed to be the most deteriorated. The Poblacion’s Simsim Creek had been a good bathing place
with a continuing flow of clear water and a good source of freshwater fish. Presently, less than 100 meter from the point where the water from
the 100-feet Talotog Waterfalls collects in a pool, water from irrigation carrying agricultural chemicals and domestic wastes from Timbobog re-
enter the stream. Moreover, human waste from the transient Aetas, and residents plus effluents from piggeries along the riverbanks render the
water body no longer suitable for fishing and bathing purposes. A privately owned small water irrigation structure greatly reduced its volume. In
most time of the year, it stagnates just near the seashore where the course closes.
434
The Bongol Creek of Sagua are doomed to similar fate. After receiving the pesticide and other agricultural chemical waste-bearing waters from the farms
and effluent from the nearby restaurant and market, it passes by a cemetery. After the height of rainy season when there are no more run-off
waters from the farms, the waterway also closes just near the shore due to wave action. The creeks of Butuan only have to contend with
domestic and agricultural wastes, weak flow and sand bar.
However, Anini-y’s rugged geography is its redeeming grace that periodically works for its advantage. When enough rain pours, these waterways are
immediately flooded and drains at no time all pollution into the bosom of the sea. It is also worthwhile to note that all foreshore areas in the
municipality can qualify under Class B and C or good for recreational areas for bathing, swimming and skin diving purposes. However, Talisayan
and similar fishing villages’ marine waters should have programs on control of spilling oil into their beaches started now.
435
1. On Water Sufficiency/ Insufficiency
a. Water supply from various sources in Anini-y is presently adequate for domestic use of its residents, although the more densely populated and fast
growing areas of Magdalena, Mabuyong and Casay have indications of experiencing supply insufficiency at certain period of the year. There is a need to
prepare a blueprint for the eventual establishment of a waterworks cooperative to service these areas with waters tapped from Igtiring Spring and other
adjacent springs of Milagrosa. This system could be extended up to San Roque at its southern end and Casay Viejo at its other end.
b. In the future Nasuli C, Iba and San Francisco may need to tap from Gigi Springs of Nasuli A. There is a need to study the possibility of a joint water
project with the local government of the said barangay. If this is not possible, there is a need for the immediate delineation and rehabilitation of the
watershed areas within these barangays to induce more water flow from springs found in the area.
2. On Expansion of Services by Existing Waterworks
Service areas of existing waterworks systems are limited by its present supply capacity, management viability, beneficiary households’ degree of
clustering, distance from the existing pipelines, capacity and willingness of the beneficiaries to pay, and funds to buy the plumbing materials
and finance the systems’ maintenance. There is a need for an enhanced beneficiary involvement and the establishment of a municipal-level
partnership to improve and maintain and possibly integrate the systems.
436
3. On Water Supply Testing and Quality
a. Waters coming from shallow wells, significant units of which have water tables within 10 feet deep or used beyond maximum drawdown capacity will
continue to supply over 50% of the residents. Other shallow wells have water tables beyond the design depth of 25 feet for jetmatic pumps promoting the
invasion and the absorption of surface water other than those contained in the aquifer.
There is a need for a closer and periodic monitoring of water potability considering our culture to construct houses (with modern toilet facilities using
more water) very proximate to point source and, homelots scarcity. Over population pressure is bound to cause groundwater pollution
especially near the seashores areas where saturation level varies from 2 feet up to 12 feet. There is a need for extra care in water facility
construction in these areas.
b. Water appeared reddish in some wells while in some, water tastes somewhat tart. While there is no reported incidence of chemical poisoning these wells
may contain deleterious elements. There is a need therefore, to subject all of these wells into chemical test not just for its potability but for its mineral and
economic values.
4. On Improvement of Existing Unsafe Water Supply Sources
a. There is an urgent need to convert most of the 37 undeveloped springs serving a little less than 20% of the municipality’s total households into improved
springs or Level II facilities.
b. Open dug wells are very susceptible to impurities, contamination and become the breeding places for mosquitoes and similar insects. The 1,336
residents poor enough to afford concrete pipe linings and jetmatic pumps mostly use this facility. There is a need to support them with concrete and
plumbing materials to alleviate their needs for access to potable waters and prevent them from becoming epidemic victims.
c. Wells found in areas near the farms are prone to groundwater pollution due to use of agricultural chemicals that can easily percolate underground. They
must be examined also for chemical pollution.

437
5. On Denudation that Affects Water Supply
a. The emerging Anini-y urban center (Butuan-Poblacion-Sagua-Talisayan-Lisub A cluster) has very negligible watershed areas within its perimeter. It will
have future water supply problem unless, the privately owned motorized-pump well at Timbobog is tapped and converted into waterworks or the 45-cm.
San Ramon Spring with a capacity enough for approximately 8 barangays is tapped. This spring can be augmented with the Iyaga and Sambuaya
Springs yielding 5 inches of water even during summer season.
b. Majority of the barangays considered their watershed areas as critical for their sustainable water supply generation. The watersheds in most of the
barangays presently need an immediate and massive reforestation as they are mostly denuded. However, these areas need to be surveyed and
delineated first before any reforestation activity is started.
c. Some animals are grazed in the watershed and destroyed small trees that are growing robustly. There is a need for a more vigo rous implementation of
ordinances that prohibits stray animals.
d. The 3 major rivers of Anini-y have their headwaters in the San Ramon-Tagaytay-Igtumarom uplands. Efforts must be exerted for this vast watershed
area to be reforested and prevent the resettlement of areas within critical distance from these sources.
6. On Surface Water and Its Human Uses
a. Irrigation water re-enters the stream carrying agricultural chemicals. After the height of rainy season when no more waters run-off from the farms, the
waterway closes just near the shore due to wave action, weak flow and sand bar. Moreover, creeks and surface waters are becoming deteriorated
especially from the point near human settlements. Agricultural, domestic and human wastes plus effluents from piggeries along the riverbanks render the
water body no longer suitable for fishing and bathing purposes. A vigorous waste management program is urgently needed to steam this trend.
438
b. Anini-y’s rugged geography is its redeeming grace that periodically works for its advantage. When enough rain pours, these waterways are immediately
flooded and drains at no time all pollution into the bosom of the sea. It is worth noting that all foreshore areas in the municipality can qualify under Class
B and C or good for recreational areas for bathing, swimming and skin diving purposes. Fishing villages’ marine waters need to have control programs
on oil spill started into their beaches, now.
1. GOALS: By the end of 2015,
a. Provision of adequate, uninterrupted and potable water supply to all households in the municipality, and
b. Enhanced quality of surface waters in Anini-y as a support to municipal tourism goals (see SPORTS AND RECREATION).
2. OBJECTIVES: By the end of 2015,
1. To physically improve various water supply facilities existing within Anini-y;
2. To construct new waterworks systems or facilities where needed and feasible; and
3. To efficiently distribute potable water to the various barangays within the municipality.
439
1. Policy Recommendations and Strategies
a. Water is a basic human need and it is the LGUs primary responsibility to make available to its constituent water of sufficient quantity and of good quality.
Regards this, the LGU shall prepare a municipal-wide integrated water supply system master plan, fund its early implementation and endeavor to gain
control of the sources and exercise direct supervision on the use of this commodity by implementing all pertinent laws.
b. Enhanced coverage and efficiency of existing waterworks shall be promoted by establishing a multi-sector local water body with strong beneficiary
participation that shall develop and manage the delivery of this basic service.
c. Potable water quality shall be safeguarded by monitoring closely the construction of structures that can promote invasion of contaminants to water-
bearing layers or aquifers and imposing strict penalties on violation of applicable ordinances and laws for its wise use.
d. It shall be the policy of the LGU to provide water supply services to all households in the barangays especially those that cannot afford to improve their
facilities that do conform to health standards due to poverty by providing them preferential option to available water project assistance and funding
support.
e. Cognizant of the fact that an area’s watershed condition is directly proportional to available water supply, the LGU shall take the lead in the protection of
what is left of its watershed and promote its rehabilitation by establishing a critical area protection program and providing ample funds for its
implementation.
f. The LGU shall establish a holistic waste management program to preserve the pristine condition of its beaches and to rekindle life to its rivers and
streams pursuant to its eco-tourism and wholesome community objectives.
440

POWER SUPPLY
“He who has the monopoly of power controls the future of a nation.”
443
In studying the power sector, certain information is considered as basis for determining the needs and opportunities to be able to come up with analysis and conclusions.
The ensuing discussions, thus, include data on the number of households; sources of power and their uses; and, the facilities that generate power supply. To a
greater extent, particular focus is done on the study of electricity as the main element of power supply. This information forms the bases to determine the
community demand for electric energy considering the rapid growth of population, expanding commercial activities and the setting-up of needed industries.
Identification of other energy sources will also guide in determining the energy saving schemes, alternative lighting and fuel sources, and other decisions related
to fuel and energy use and conservation.

In 2000, Kerosene for lighting was ranked the highest had 2,013 household users (55.76%, Table 1 above). The remaining 44.24% were using electricity
registering an increase of 15.5% from the 1990 period. This information is validated by the results of the new Integrated Rural Approach Program (IRAP) survey
in year 2000 as more than 50% of the households in Anini-y were still using kerosene for their household lighting. Use of kerosene was still prevalent in the 3
upland barangays not served by electricity. No household was using liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), oil or other energies for lighting. Observation revealed that,
while households had electricity many still use kerosene lamps after the electric lights shall have been put out during the night for sleeping.
2. Fuel Used for Cooking
Table 1 further showed the kinds of fuel used for cooking and the number of users. Actual observation indicated that wood/bamboo is still the most common fuel
used for cooking as these are acquired most often at no cost. Majority of the households at 72.96% found it more economical and convenient to use readily
available wood/bamboo. Some of these households were observed also to resort to using LPG fuel for emergency cooking only. Electricity, kerosene and
charcoal (very negligible at 0.06% users) are not used commonly by many as wood and bamboo still abounds in the locality. Furthermore, the local leadership
has discouraged the populace to buy charcoal from the “Aetas and the kaingineros” –the usual source of this type of fuel. This way, disastrous use of our forest
resources was minimized, if not eliminated. The LPG was used for cooking in 845 households (23.41%) that were considered financially capable. These LPG-
using households tried to save cost too, by substituting it with wood and bamboo once in a while.
3. Electric Service
a. HOUSEHOLD SERVED AND UNSERVED
The 2000 NSO data indicated Anini-y had 3,610 HH with a population of 19,623 and 779 of this population resided in 139 households at Poblacion. In
2005 municipal survey, the population has increased to 20,599 with 4,093 HH. The population in the urban area likewise increased to 815 in 150 HH.

ANTECO’s 3 sub-stations are strategically located at Hamtic and Sibalom in the south and Culasi in the north. Hamtic sub-station served Anini-y 36 km
away. The facilities and equipment of ANTECO include those that are needed as an electric power distribution center. Every house connected is
provided with a meter by which electric consumption is determined and power bill computed. The household connections are presumed to have a 220-
240 volts power supply. A main switch is installed in every house to control the inflow of current from the main distribution line into the household.
The 2 teams of service crew maintains a combination stake truck with an automatic drill and boom to lay down lines and install electric post. It has
several service vans with on-board high power lights for immediate reaction when called, night or day. ANTECO has several power lines classified as
follows: single phase -242.7 km; V phase -54.015 km; 3 phase -257.26 km; double circuit -1.42 km; under-built -350.529 km; and, open circuit -257.53
km. The 13,200 volts distribution lines are strung on electric posts at 25 meters intervals, sometimes beyond this distance.
It is observed power interruptions in the municipality usually take place on Saturdays or Sundays as weekends are clean up and maintenance days for
ANTECO. Furthermore, during peak hours in the whole system, the Anini-y connection is always the first to suffer the brunt caused by power outages to
avoid systems overload anytime of the day. The practice also of some sound systems to tap direct connections from the distribution lines during fiesta
months is another contributing factor to service interruptions. Thus, there’s a lot more to be improved in the service offered by the utility as some power
outages happened and fees charged that could not be explained by its office that to the minds of the consuming public is shortchanging them. The
policies and systems efficiency likewise, deserves a thorough review to reduce enormous power losses.
d. Existing Number of Connections by Type of Users and Average Consumption
Table PS4 below reveals there were 1,282 domestic or residential users with an average annual consumption of 70,987.25 kilowatt-hour in 2000. Total
domestic power consumption amounted to 851,847 KW-hr. This was 89.84% of the total 948,186 kW-Hr consumption of Anini-y. Furthermore, the 23
Commercial Connections utilized 29,061 KW-hr. for an average annual consumption of 105.29 KW-hr for the whole municipality.

e. The Retail Rate Schedule
On February 17, 2004, the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) approved the rate unbundling of ANTECO. The approval came after the regulatory
evaluation and public hearings. As prescribed by the ERC, the new ANTECO rates for Domestic/Residential per kilowatt-hour in Pesos are as follows:

Antique is considered as having the second highest rate of electricity in the entire country. Common feed backs are most often heard that this is one of
the major reasons that discouraged industrial investors to come to Antique to put up their businesses. Another reason is the 24-hour availability of power
supply as “periodic” and unannounced outages could wreck havoc to consumables that requires refrigeration.
f. Efficiency of the System
The frequency of power fluctuations confirms the distribution system’s inefficiency. Houses using ordinary fluorescent lamps switch on their household
lamps at about 5:00 in the afternoon or else, these electrical units will not light, if done later. At most, these lamps will just flicker or blink until 11:00 at
night when they will fully light as most of the houses now has go or about to go to bed. Some people would interpret this as power shedding to save on
energy consumption. This is good for the electric cooperative but bad to the residential consumers. Many will not be able to use the minimum 10 kilowatt-
hour but still pay the basic monthly dues. Furthermore, use of low voltage than that required destroys electrical appliances in the long run.
B. DEVELOPMENT NEEDS AND PROJECTED FUTURE SCENARIOS
B.1 Identification of Existing Problems and Development Needs
a. Facilities and Equipment
➢ Anini-y is at the end of the distribution line and the municipality is the first to be cut off from system when overloading occurs.
➢ Power supply is not very reliable especially during weekends and fiestas. Fluctuations and power shedding destroys household appliances.
➢ Facilities to inform the public of impending/ scheduled brownout is lacking or not working.
450
b. Service Area
➢ Three upland barangays have not been energized. Their households are widely dispersed. Poverty is prevalent in the area.
➢ There are 3,610 households that are potential consumers of electricity. By the end of 2005, most of the households that were not served
cannot afford to buy the power meter.
➢ Streetlights have not been formally registered with ANTECO.
c. Retail Rate Schedule
➢ ANTECO’s charges/ fee is second highest in the country. High/ prohibitive cost of power discourages entrepreneurs to start even small and
medium scale industries.
➢ Power source is very far and power supply has to pass through submarine cables twice. The resultant power losses are pass on to the
consumers.
B.2 Future Needs
a. An alternative source of energy for electricity is desirable for the 3 upland barangays of Tagaytay, Igtumarom and San Ramon.
b. Barangay LGUs are seen as providers for maintaining streetlights out of its own funds and not as additional burden to individual households.
c. The lowering of electricity rate is a potent motivation for additional household consumers, as well as the growth of commerce and industry.

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
C.1 Goal
1. To provide affordable and reliable electric power to all barangays of the municipality
2. To improve the services rendered by the electric cooperative.
C.2 Objectives
1. To provide electric power to the areas not presently serviced by the electric cooperative by 2007-15.
2. To provide accessible and better facilities and services to all consumers by 2008.
3. To promote clustering of homes for efficient power service delivery by 2010-15.
453
SECTORAL PROPOSALS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The rural electrification program should be fully supported by the LGU. As such, it should actively search for alternative means of supplying
power to less viable areas.
2. Consumers are coop owners, thus have the primary responsibility of maintaining good service delivery. The LGU should promote active
member-consumer participation during election of district representative to the ANTECO board and their attendance during public hearings.
3. The barangay governments should make prior request to the cooperative operations management for priority considerations during fiestas or
special occasions to spare them from any power interruptions.
4. A system to inform the public for any impending or scheduled repair that will affect any area within the municipality should be put in place to
enable the residents to prepare for contingencies.
5. The LGU should actively facilitate the provision of assistance to the needy household for their early connection to the power system.
D.2 Strategies
1. Negotiate with the Congressman for a partnership to provide the local equity fund requirements by the electric cooperative.
2. Facilitate for the acquisition of barangay sites in areas where houses are scattered to enable the clustering of household beneficiaries.
3. Seek DILG-DOE and academe assistance for possible alternative and renewable power sources for unserved and less viable areas.
4. Coordinate with the NAPOCOR and the ANTECO for the extension of power distribution facilities to areas still without electricity.
5. Require beneficiary counterpart in cash and in kind
D.3 Targets
454
1. To energize the remaining three (3) barangays without electricity within the next 3 years.
2. To replace damaged cable wires and decaying electric posts with new units starting the year 2006.
3. To organize barangay-level association of electric consumers in each of the unserved barangays.
4. To provide access to electricity to one-third of those who cannot afford to buy their power meters.

I. NATURAL FEATURES, LAND USE AND OTHER PHYSICAL DATA
A. NATURAL FEATURES
456
Anini-y is the southernmost town of Antique and is located at the lowest tip of Panay Island between 121 degrees 01’35” - 54’40” longitude, and 10
degrees 24’50” - 28’38” latitude. It is bounded in the north (where the 6 upland communities are located) by the municipality of T. Fornier and by San
Joaquin (Iloilo Province) in the northeast. Its entire west, south, and east perimeters are bounded by coastal waters of Cuyo East Pass.
Local topography is very rough. The portion east of Nato up to Salvacion has very narrow flat foreshore lands caught between a very rugged
mountains and a long stretch of coral-lined shorelines. In many parts from Bayo Grande to Lisub B to Tagaytay, Talisayan to Butuan, and Iba to San
Francisco, very steep mountains abruptly rise from the coastal plains. Hills are formed at the foot of some of these extrusive masses. On the other
hand, the central-eastern landscape from San Roque to Iba and up to Milagrosa-Igtumarom area is flat to rolling to hilly to mountainous with Mount
Igdulit as is its highest point. Most barangays are highly bisected by not less than 53 bodies of surface waters of various sizes and length. About
one and a half kilometer away from the Poblacion is the 64Ha Nogas Island separated by the southern reaches of the Cuyo East Pass.
Anini-y is basically uplands with 86.815% of its total land area of 6617.2180Ha is above the 18% slope. Its slope is categorized, thus:

Mount Aliwliw Mount Aliwliw is Anini-y’s highest point. Its location is so strategic in the ASEAN region that the US Air Force attempted to establish a
communication base on its summit only that it was overtaken by the termination of the presence of American bases in the Philippine soil. Another peak
is a potential tourist destination –the imposing Cresta del Gallo at Mount Nasug straddling the barangays of Iba and San Francisco.
Rainy season in Anini-y begins in June up to October. Dry season starts in November and ends around May. Average rainfall on the rainiest month of
July is 45.72 cm and April the driest month only 5.08 cm. Average rainfalls throughout the municipality is 20.32 cm. The area is observed to be the driest
in the region. It was severely affected by the draught brought about by the El Nino phenomenon during the last years of this century.
The four (4) soils types of Anini-y are: Alimodian Clay; Patnongon Sandy Loam; Magcalon Sandy Loam; and, the mountain soils that are not identified.
Rice harvest volume is decreasing indicating many agricultural lands have become acidic. Sedimentary rocks make most of the Earth’s surface in this
municipality. Mount Nasug is generally the older kind of granite. Scattered all over Siraan is basalt –a form of igneous rock.
There is no lake in the municipality. Its 4 major rivers (Talisayan, Nato, Iboc, and Nasuli) with their 33 tributaries, 17 other minor rivers and their tributary
creeks, and other small surface water bodies covering a total area of 115 hectares flow directly into the sea. These drainage channels could be tapped
as source for irrigation when tapped at their head waters. Identified watershed in 8 barangays covers around 30 hectares. Much bigger than these are
the watershed areas of another 6 barangays.
The municipality is near the Negros Trench and PHILVOLCS reported that a fault line traverses not only Anini-y but the whole province of Antique.
Panay Island is at the edge of the Philippine tectonic plate “subducting” over the huge Eurasian plate, which arrangement continuously raises Nogas
Island and our beaches higher. All barangays has aquifers that hold abundant waters except that some areas have very deep-lying aquifers, as in the
case of the plains of Magdalena, Mabuyong, and Casay. All the rest have shallow aquifers except those of Bayo Grande and Pequeño, and Casay Viejo

that are a little bit deeper, at 30-35 feet.
458
B. INFRASTRUCTURE FACILITIES
Inventory of Municipal Roads
Almost 85% of the households of the 17 coastal barangays is clustered around the national road. Its 19.6034 km length is only 25.6435% paved
with concrete or asphalt. The 3.6520km concrete sections start from Lisub B down to Nato breached by about 0.210km on both sides of Butuan
Bridge. Other sections are within San Roque, 0.1300 km.; Magdalena, 0.2970km; and Casay, 0.1800km. San Francisco has 0.7680km asphalt road
section. The rest, 14.5764km gravel road have tortuous stretch that needs immediate concreting and widening works.
All the 1.3150 km municipal roads are in the Poblacion. Only 40 meters of these roads is unpaved. Most sections need major repairs. Only T.
Fornier Drive and portion of Nepomuceno Street conform to DPWH standards. A 3km gravel road found in San Francisco is part of the provincial
road that connects the eastern uplands of T. Fornier to Anini-y.
Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeño, Poblacion and Salvacion have no barangays roads. The remaining 19 barangays have a combined length of 39.4058
km barangay roads. Nato has the shortest at 0.1000km and Milagrosa the longest road with 5.2000km. The 3.4239km cumulative length of concrete
barangay roads is found in Butuan, 100m; Casay, 643m; Casay Viejo, 350m; Iba, 192m; Lisub A, 250m; Lisub B, 100m; Magdalena, 775.8m; Nato,
100m; Sagua, 200m; San Francisco, 425m; San Roque, 188.1m; and, Talisayan, 100m. The rest is either of gravel or earth fills. The Igpalge-Casay
Viejo road has a section that violates the horizontal and vertical curve limits standards.
All upland barangays are connected with each other or at least to a coastal barangay. However, 40 puroks or districts of Anini-y still need to be
connected at least to their barangay center. Local roads adequacy base on standards indicates Anini-y is short by 0.7013km per 100Ha arable land.
This road inadequacy is equivalent to a length of 34.5976km of roads. Based on the study conducted by the Municipal Engineer’s Office and the
Municipal Planning and Development Office, out of this 34.5976 km. of proposed barangay road requirement, only 6.3 kilometers was met that
includes: Casay-Igpalge Brgy. Road, Milagrosa-Igtumarom Brgy. Road and Salvacion-San Ramon Brgy. Road.
459
The remaining proposed brgy. road requirement was not met due to some portion which are very steep, non-passable, hilly and susiptible to
possibility of landslides. Based further on the ideal 2.4 km. per 1000 urban population ratio, Anini-y’s urban center has a short fall of 0.6788 km. per
1000 population or a total of 0.5186km of roads.
Inventory of Bridges
The DPWH maintains 18 bridges (3 concrete and 15 bailey with a total length of 350.59 lineal meters and varying width of 3.94 to 7.00m) and 2
concrete spillways of undetermined length in Anini-y while the provincial government has the 24.29 lineal meters Nasuli C Bridge and the
abandoned 12.20 lineal meter timber trestle bridge at Bantigue. Talisayan and Lisub have reinforced concrete deck girder (RCDG) bridges. The
reinforced concrete box culvert (RCBC) in Bayo Pequeño has a single lane width that demands that a two-lane unit should be built instead. The 15
bailey bridges need to be concretized. Furthermore, Sira-an Bridge’s approach be re-oriented the curve being sharp and short.
Sitio Minoro Ingga needs a bridge across Nasuli River to Nasuli C proper and its primary school while Milagrosa is separated by Iboc River from
Igplage elementary and secondary schools. Another bridge is needed to connect Magdalena to its upland sitios of Paet, Igcanipa and Cababaan
while a “foot bridge” is presently servicing the transport needs of its Sitio Panabigan residents.
School Buildings
Anini-y School District has 146 elementary and 35 secondary schoolrooms. These 146 schoolrooms are classified into 56 Type III, 22 Type IV, 45
Type V rooms, and 23 rooms of various types that do not belong to any of DECS standard buildings. Of the 146 rooms 24 are ver y dilapidated, 48
need urgent major repairs, 50 for rehabilitation/other minor repairs, and 24 are in better condition or are recently constructed. Nasuli C’s only multi-
grade classroom is condemnable. Almost 50% of Igtumarom ES and Tagaytay PS classrooms are condemnable, followed by Igpalge ES with 33%,
460
then by Lisub ES, then Casay ES. Top among the schools with buildings that need major repairs are Casay ES, Bayo-CUM ES, Iba ES, Lisub ES,
and Igtumarom ES, in that order. San Ramon PS, Igpalge ES, Nato-Butuan ES, and Anini-y Central School need only minor repairs/ rehabilitation.
Anini-y has 13 extra classrooms but this is negated by its 72 existing classrooms that need immediate demolition or major repair. Anini-y school
district needs 11 new classrooms for immediate construction and a phase-by-phase construction of additional 48 classrooms over a 10-year spread.
State-owned INHSl has one extra room used for administration purposes but immediately needs 2 new rooms and 3 of its 7 units need to undergo
major repairs within the medium term. The rest of the high schools have good classrooms but SRENHS needs one each for administrative and
library purposes. The 2 private high schools have enough classrooms for the planning period.
Other Facilities for Elementary Schools
All elementary schools are located in strategic population centers. The 6 upland barangays has each a school. These 18 public schools occupy a
total of 123,815 sq. m. or 12.3815Ha of land. Only 6 schools stand over a hectare land with Casay ES having the biggest campus at 1.7086Ha
followed by Anini-y CS with 1.3981Ha and San Roque ES with 1.2387Hectare. Bayo-C.Unica MES, Igtumarum ES, and Igpalge ES are the other 3
that exceeded 1 hectare of school ground. Per DECS Standards for Education, Anini-y CS needs 1.5Ha additional area (not withstanding its annex
Marcos site), Casay and Lisub ES each needs 1.5Ha to acquire while Igpalge and Igtumarom ES each need 0.5Ha each. Magdalena ES, S. Qubing
ES and, Salvacion PS are in extreme need of expansion areas having extreme inadequacy.
Magdalena and Nato-Butuan ES and the primary schools at Milagrosa, Nasuli C, Salvacion, Tagaytay, and Talisayan each need a school clinic
while those already established in the rest of the schools need further facilities improvement. Aside from computers, all improvised administration
buildings needed further modification to incorporate the guidance and counseling room, and storeroom. All classrooms cum shop/home economics
buildings need at least a modest shop/ H.E facilities and equipment and be modified to include lunch counters. All learning resource centers lack
resource books, periodicals, encyclopedia set, globes, maps, and dictionaries, etc.
461
All schools have no laboratory, nor a sports center. What the elementary schools have are some basketballs and at least, volleyball as sports
equipment. Each school campus in Anini-y has a playground and comfort rooms. However, most CRs need to be converted into sanitary types.
S. Qubing ES has no school stage and utilizes the barangay stage for school programs. Moreover, all PS and all ES in the uplands utilize the same.
All secondary schools are also strategically located: INHS services the uplands of Igpalge, Milagrosa, Igtumarum and Nasuli C; SRENHS covers the
central barangays, including upland San Ramon; SAHS covers all coastal barangays western of Siraan, including upland Tagaytay; and, STHS the
eastern barangays from Magdalena. All secondary schools occupy a total of 20,978 square meters with St. Andrew’s having the biggest campus. All
schools have science laboratory while only STHS and INHS maintains a shop. All schools have Library, Administration Building and playground.
Other Facilities for Secondary Schools
The high schools need more the Metal, Mechanical and Electrical Trades Shops than Farm Mechanics/ Machinery Shops and Fish Capture/ Culture/
Preservation Shop. Secondary schools have modest educational facilities and only Girls Trades/Homemaking, Practical Arts/ Technology and Home
Economics, and Drafting/ Drawing shops are among the secondary shops facilities present. The 4 high schools need Guidance Counseling rooms
and Medical/ Dental Clinics, more books for their existing libraries and more apparatuses for their laboratories.
Clinics and Health Centers
The following are the government health centers and their coverage in Anini-y: the Poblacion Health Center for Talisayan, Sagua, Poblacion,
Butuan, and Nato; Lisub B Health Center for Bayo Grande, Bayo Pequeno, Lisub A, Lisub B and Tagaytay; Magdalena Health Center for Salvacion,
San Roque, Magdalena and Mabuyong; Casay Health Center for Casay, Casay Viejo, Iba, Nasuli C, and San Francisco; Igtumarum Health Center
for Igtumarum, and San Ramon, and, Igpalge Health Sub-Station for Milagrosa and Igpalge. Three new additional service areas where opened:
462
Nato, San Ramon and San Francisco, but the health personnel assigned do their tasks in the barangay halls. There are 4 private clinics in the
municipality operated on certain days by a government retired medical practitioner, two physicians that are connected with the provincial
government hospital, and a dentist. There are 4 private clinics in the municipality operated on certain days by a government retired medical
practitioner, two physicians that are connected with the provincial government hospital, and a dentist.
Irrigation Support
The Lisub-Anini-y communal irrigation system (CIS) is of 215.05% efficient. Its 2 dams draw irrigation water from Talisayan River and Lisub Creek.
Water flow is stable from July to November, just enough for second cropping and affords some farming household to plant for the third time when on
set of planting season is early. Capacity-wise, the Tagaytay spring waters feeding the Talisayan River is just enough for designed coverage up to
second cropping. It is programmed to irrigate 23.7617Ha but it can reliably serve 25Ha during the first cropping season. During the second cropping,
water from the Lisub Creek dam can barely suffice for the 11.0787Ha farms. The Lisub Creek dam is constructed lower than the canal level making
the ditch easily silted, causing periodic breaching of the levees, causing erosion and damage. The earthen ditch about 150meters from the dam
appeared to be weak and silting frequently occurs that needs regular de-clogging. This is an indication that continuity or reliability of irrigation water
supply is questionable in the long run. Frequent siltation is a sign of fast denuding watershed.
The second public irrigation facility -the Nato-Butuan CIS serves 46.25Ha of rice lands out of the projected irrigable area of 22.9061Ha farmlands in
Nato and Butuan for a water supply efficiency rate of 201.91%. Its water source – the Nato River is serviced by springs just off the foot of Mt.
Igdacoton. It can reliably supply irrigation water to double that of the present coverage up to the second cropping only as the source is reduced
during summer months. Extending its canal, the system can even supply the Poblacion rice fields. A kilometer long earth canal needs concrete
linings to improve over-all system’s efficiency. The present condition of the watershed at the headwaters of this irrigation facility is fairly forested but
463
protective measures must be in place as there is human settlement immediately beyond this area. Anyhow, the continuity and reliability of this
irrigation depends on how the present membership of the system maintains this facility.
In terms of small-scale irrigation facilities, 130.6 hectares of farmlands were irrigated by various small irrigation facilities: 25 small inexpensive
irrigation structures (SIIS) irrigate 44.87%; 40 gasoline or diesel powered pumps cover 37.52%; 3 private and 1 public small farm reservoirs (SFR)
water 7.66%; and 4 small diversion dam (SDD) 9.96%.
Fish ports
Anini-y has no Fish port. At present, there is a fish landing wharf situated at Salvacion which was not finished due to lack of funds. The Local
Government Unit is planning to pursue the project by extending the wharf from the shoreline to a deep portion of the sea and placing stairways on its
sides so that the fishing boats can easily dock on it especially during low tide. The local officials are hoping to finish the said wharf through fund
sourcing on or before 2015.
Water Supply System
The 8 gravity-type barangay-level waterworks systems of Anini-y serve 1,638 residents through 272 household connections in Bayo Pequeño,
Igpalge, Igtumarom, Milagrosa, Salvacion, Tagaytay, Magdalena, and Casay. All systems have limited capacities. Not all households of 14 puroks in
38 puroks are served. Systems facilities are spring/collection box, distribution box and the pipelines aside from Milagrosa that uses instead a long
hoseline. Four Casay HH and 1 in Igpalge with the means use electric pumps to draw waters from their waterworks system. The Caniogan Spring
output is 3,400 li/day-the least, the Igtagubang Spring’s is biggest at 54,000 li/day followed by the 2 Iguhag Springs with 48,000 and 47,300
liters/day. Magdalena waterworks supplies less than the required 60 li/capita/day but has the biggest area coverage at 99 household connections.
Next is Salvacion utility with 44 HH. Mabuyong waterworks was serving all its 3 puroks with 35 domestic water connections but stopped after 1999
due to management and maintenance failures. The total consumption of all Level III systems, excluding Siraan resort is estimated at 79,263 li/day of
464
water. Anini-y has 12 Level II systems (excluding Bayo Grande project that is on-going during the write up). Ten are gravity-type communal water
systems and 2 are privately owned at Timbobog, Sagua and San Francisco that use pumps to draw water from the wells and lift the same to an
elevated tank or container whence water is distributed by pipes to households that are near to each other. Both systems served 10 and 21 persons,
respectively. Among the 12 systems are 6 of the 8 Level III utilities for having communal faucets in its distribution lines. The combined Lawihaw and
Igtagubang
Springs output serve an additional 295 people in Bayo Pequeño’s 3 puroks. Casay’s 12 communal faucets serve 186 more Casaynons from
Greenhills, Blue Ridge, White Plains and Greenland Subdivisions. Lawihaw and Libtug Springs augment Caniogan’s for 223 more Igtumarom folks.
Tinaba Spring augments Mt. Banderahan’s output to serve 188 more Tagaytay uplanders. Salvacion’s second spring at Dapog Brook serves 300
more barangay residents. Bungol Spring augments Igdila for an additional 275 Igpalge household population.
Mt. Banderahan serves 463 Iba residents. Imbokalan.Spring serves 443 Lisub B folks. Both are purely communal. The municipal government’s
Siraan unit serves only the restaurant and the Philvolcs for free.
All Anini-y water systems are either limited by its source’s output or by available funds. Output-wise, Timbobog unit is the biggest at 38.58 li/sec.
Nato’s is far second with 2.77 li/sec barely nosing that of Iba that varies from 5.40 to 0.20 li/sec depending on the season. The rest have capacities
between 0.22 and 0.74 li/sec. All systems benefit a total of 2,539 people in 27 puroks of 11 barangays through more than 89 communal faucets.
Scattered all over Anini-y are 754 shallow wells benefiting 10, 395 people or more than half of Anini-y population in 1999. Butuan has the most
numbers closely followed by Sagua and Lisub A. Milagrosa has just a single unit followed by San Ramon with 3 and Salvacion 8 units. Igtumarom,
Magdalena, San Roque and Tagaytay have none. All residents of Butuan, Lisub A, Poblacion, and Talisayan are served by shallow wells. The 12
deep wells are still used by 389 local residents while 29 improved springs provided water to another 1,596 people. Mabuyong, Milagrosa and San
Francisco are the barangay with the most numbers of deep wells indicating that water is somewhat difficult to access in these areas.
465
However, Mabuyong has available 7 improved spring sources that could be integrated into a waterworks system. Salvacion has a source in Purok 1
that serves all barangay residents when water is scarce.
There are 37 undeveloped springs that serve 592 residents of Casay, Casay Viejo, Igpalge, Mabuyong, Nato, Sagua, San Francisco, San Ramon,
and Tagaytay. There are also 103 units of open dug wells benefiting 1,336 residents. These facilities are found in Butuan, Casay, Casay Viejo, Iba,
Igpalge, Igtumarom, Mabuyong, Nato, Salvacion, San Francisco, San Ramon, San Roque, Tagaytay, and Talisayn. The most numbers of open dug
wells are in Igpalge and San Francisco with 24 and 23, respectively followed by Igtumarom with 17 units and San Ramon with 13 units of them.
These sources are very susceptible to impurities and contamination and must be determined if it can be developed economically into improved
springs, improved wells or converted either into communal type or the waterworks system.
Dikes, Drainage, Sewerage and Flood Control
The prevailing natural drainage system of the municipality is adequate, except in Poblacion that lacks a drainage system. Likewise, there is no
sewerage system in any of the thickly populated barangays.
The road networks in the municipality are provided with canals on both sides serving as drainage and waterways. Water from ricefield, rains and
household drains find their way into these canals emptying into rivers. Where bridges are not feasible culverts are built buried across the road for
ease of water to flow into canals and rivers. However, the road grade level of Bayo Pequeño is low and the present road canal is very shallow and
cannot accommodate the waters from the rice fields.
Anini-y’s drainage pattern follows the course of its major rivers, tributaries and streams. Its winding shallow waterways have levees high and wide
enough to accommodate the volume of torrential rains. The run-off waters in the forested uplands and grasslands of Tagaytay-San Ramon
Igtumarom area are widely distributed to more than one-half of the coastal area of Anini-y while those from the other upland areas of Igpalge-
Milagrosa-Nasuli C are safely scattered on the remaining section.

466
Generally, lose of life and damage to property in the municipality are caused by river currents that momentarily surge and abruptly subside due to
big elevation difference from uplands to low-lying areas. Other cause is tidal surge along the coastlines especially when high tide meets the flooded
river waters. The long stretch of coral reefs along the shores takes care of this in most places. All the major river systems have experienced some
abnormal flooding due this phenomenon. Thus, some stretch of these rivers are in need now of river dikes to stem the on-rush of swelling
floodwaters, specifically near Casay ES and upper Iba proper. Nato’s river control project have withstand many floods but its upper end need some
extension. The Local Government is planning to extend the wing wall in the upper stream portion to prevent water from overflowing and hoping to
materialize it on or before 2015.
467
C.3 LAND USE
EXISTING GENERAL LAND USE
Anini-y is basically an agriculture economy. Its agricultural lands constitute 47.5329% of the total municipal area of 6,617.2108 hectares while its
built-up and forest area are 1.1116% and 4.6786%, respectively. Special zones (grassland/pasture, tourism, naval reserve, and roads and bridges)
and other uses comprise a total of 19.0179% and 25.5008%, respectively.

The built-up area of Anini-y is only 73.56 hectares, which is the area occupied by settlements in the barangays. The typical pattern in the coastal
areas is strip development along the national highway. Aside from Poblacion where a network of municipal roads is laid out, large settlements can
also be seen in Magdalena, Mabuyong, Butuan, Casay, San Francisco and Iba that have their own network of barangay roads. Exceptional dense
population concentration is found in Talisayan that has no lattice of barangay roads.

468
Agricultural areas occupy 3,145.3563 hectares. A big percentage of these are planted to rice: 1,313.8056 hectares in the lowland; and 1017.6191
hectares in the uplands. Corn land constitutes 367.28 hectares; coco land is 410.8091 hectares; cane land is 0.1261; bamboo plantation is 20.2633;
buri area is 0.9592 hectare; and, orchard is 14.4899 hectares. Mango, banana and vegetables are planted within these croplands. The remaining
area in southern towns with forest covers is in Anini-y.
Forest Lands are lands of public domain classified as such and declared as needed for forestry purposes. These areas inherently produce more
benefits and give better service than when converted to agricultural lands or other uses such that those lands are not titled. Forestlands include
Production and Protection Forestlands. 4.6796% of the total municipal lands of Anini-y equivalent to 309.59 hectares are Forestlands. This forest
area of 309.59 hectares can still be found in the mountains of Tagaytay, Talisayan, Lisub A, Nogas Island, San Francisco, Bayo Pequeño, and San
Ramon. If we include the forested easement areas (about 56 hectares) on both sides of the rivers, these will total to 434.3087 hectares.
Special Use
Grassland/Pasture
It is estimated that there are 2,915.6636 hectares of pasturelands and open lands in Anini-y. San Francisco has the largest at 218.1256Ha, San
Ramon is next with 130.2999Ha, and Magdalena, Butuan and Igpalge with 90.8291, 76.9772 and 76.6146 hectares, respectively. The rest has a
total of 2,322.8172 hectares. Only Poblacion has no pastures.
Tourism
The municipality is endowed with tourism resources characterized as natural attractions and a cultural practice indigenous to the area. It has started
its quest for becoming the prime tourism destination in Antique through the development of Sira-an Hot Spring & Health Resort located at Barangay
Nato, Anini-y, Antique with a total area of 0.6012 ha. The 22.4530 ha. Cresta del Gallo’s camp and hideaway and underwater beauties situated at
Iba, Anini-y, Antique.
469
Wetlands
An entire irregular shaped area bounded by the marine easement line along the Poblacion coastlines from the mouth of Simsim Creek at Poblacion
up to the Ibarro Boundary extending towards the sea up to the ends of the coral reef.
Naval Reserve
A certain portion of Nogas Island with a total area of 64.00 ha. where the lighthouse is situated.
EXISTING URBAN LAND USE
The existing total built-up area of 9.8627 hectares in the Poblacion constitutes 40.6240% of its total land area of 24.2780 hectares. Its residential
area of 6.0947hectares is found mostly on both sides of the processional roads. The biggest concentration clusters at both side of Obaga Street
within the Grande-Obaga-Sayo Boulevard area and the Obaga-National Road-Simsim Creek area. As usual, many sari-sari stores can be found all
over the Poblacion but, the town’s commercial area of 0.340 hectare is concentrated at the municipal public market. Six big blocks of the town
center are occupied by the Roman Catholic Church ground, the municipal administration center, Anini-y Central School, the DepEd’s Marcos school
site, the St. Andrew’s High School-RHU area, and the smaller Aglipayan Church ground. Together, these areas constitute the institutional area that
covers 3.428 hectares. Parks and playground are found within these institutions’ lot perimeters. Roads are computed to occupy more or less,
2.5780 hectares.
Other uses of land in this urban center are broken into: agricultural –11.0953 hectares; and, wetland –0.1000 hectare. The municipality has no
ndustrial area.
470
NPAAs or NPAAD areas are reserved for agricultural activities and food security concerns. The most efficient agricultural lands and those that are
the traditional sources of food and cash crops are highly restricted for conversion and marked with Codes 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2, 3.1, 5.1 on BSWM Map
(277.4925Ha). Moderately efficient lands within 8-18% slopes are also moderately restricted (474.8977Ha). Other lands marked 3.2, 4.0 5.2, 5.3, 5.4
maybe converted depending on comparative social benefit-cost analysis vs. grass/shrub lands within 10%-30% slope (471Ha). Conversion to built-
up area requires intensive analysis on environmental impact particularly on upland stability and the effects on the lands situated below.
CARP Law provides that all A&D lands covered by Program, both under its land acquisition and distribution and non-land transfer components
cannot be converted to other uses. Igpalge, Lisub A, Poblacion, Sagua, Salvacion, San Ramon, and Talisayan are not covered by any of the CRP’s
schemes. The total CARP program areas in Anini-y are 539.3112 hectares.
Production and protection forestlands are needed for forestry purposes. These areas inherently produce more benefits and give better service than
when converted to agricultural lands or other uses such that those lands are not titled. Protection forests are either strict nature reserve, natural
park, natural monument, wildlife sanctuary, resource reserve, natural biotic areas, protected landscapes and seascapes, and other categories
established by law (NIPAS Areas), or greenbelt/ buffer strips, reserved second growth forests, mangroves, freshwater swamps/ marshes, and
unproclaimed watersheds (Non- NIPAS Areas). Total coverage is 309.59 hectares but best for forest purposes amount to 1269.1811 hectares.
Using the formula: Land Supply for Urban Expansion, LSUE = Total Land Area of 6,617.2108Ha minus the sum of protection, preservation,
conservation, and built-up areas of 539.3112 Ha, 1223.3902Ha, 1269.1811Ha and 73.56Ha; the available LSUE is 3511.7683 Hectares.

Introduction
Local Administration includes analysis of the organizational/ fiscal management and regulation/ legal controls of the municipal government. In the light of the
Local Government Code of 1991(RA7160), it is treated as a planning sector and as an integrating system for prioritization and eventual implementation of all
identified development activities/ projects with the locality. Section 2 of the Code provides that every municipality as a territorial and political subdivision of
the State shall enjoy genuine and meaningful local autonomy to enable it to attain fullest development as a self-reliant community. As a policy, the State
shall provide for a responsive and accountable local government structure through a system of decentralization whereby LGUs are given more powers,
authority, responsibilities and resources.
Under the Local Administration Sector, zoning ordinance, local development investment/capital improvement program (LDIP/ CIP)-related ordinances and
rules and regulations or other related legal and fiscal measures are considered tool for plans implementation. The organizational structure of the
municipality by income class is patterned after the staffing recommended in the Code.
It is seen that Local Administration plays an important role in delivering basic services and in ensuring the general welfare of the people. The municipality
must be organized in a manner that is responsive to people’s needs so that it must become a dynamic organization with a detailed comprehensive structure
and pattern and well-defined functions of each component. In this regard, the structure and the corresponding functions of each office/ unit, their respective
personnel together with their duties and functions are scrutinized here vis-à-vis the provisions of RA 7160.
479
II. SECTORAL PLAN
A. PROFILE AND SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS
A.1 EXISTING LOCAL ADMINISTRATIVE SYSTEM, ITS PROBLEMS AND POTENTIALS
The organizational structure of the municipal government of Anini-y is patterned after and complies with the provisions RA 7160. The Mayor, a
Liberal heads the local government’s executive department. He is young and very energetic. He has sound sustainable development orientations
and is raring to prove his worth. His Lakas-CMD deputy, an ex-mayor is popular (and heads the legislative department) during which tenure,
employees considered him straightforward and humane. No administrative or judicial proceeding was instituted against any local or national official
or employee in the municipality who may have committed an offense in the performance of their official duties.
Both are first-termer, both are neither new to the world of politics. In previous terms, both belong to the same group and occupy each other’s
position. Presently, the mayor enjoys the support of the incumbent Governor while the vice-mayor is point man to the incumbent Congressman of
Antique’s Lone Congressional District. Both local officials have solid backing from among their supporters. Such balance of strength bodes
unhealthy partisanship, gets in the way of smooth inter-personal relationship and a hindrance to development. However, should both rises to the call
of statesmanship, such balance of strength ushers a double time march to unprecedented progress and peace for Anini-y.
The appointed officials of this executive department are the municipal treasurer, assessor, acting municipal accountant, budget officer, planning and
development coordinator, engineer/ building official, health officer and the civil registrar. Other officials are the municipal social welfare and
480
development officer and the municipal agriculturist –heads of optional devolved units that were absorbed by the LGU, and the municipal information
officer-designate. All duties, functions and responsibilities of these different offices conform to the provision of the LGC.
The Administration’s first 100-day accomplishments are indicative of its leader’s progressive thinking and desire to correct past inequities and
weaknesses. Its Development Administration effort is directed towards generating policy advocacy through pro-active civil society participation in
planning and implementation, strengthened local development bodies, and making the LGU transactions transparent and service delivery efficient.
While it has concretized and institutionalized ANIPAY as a municipal festival and initiated a potential tourism attraction through Sport Fishing, it has
not match its desire to make Anini-y the prime tourism destination in the province by not establishing a full time tourism office.
On Socio-Economic Development, specifically finance and resource generation it is making headway in improving fees collection efficiency from its
economic enterprises. It has continued the previous administration’s policy of mobilizing the local fishers in anti-commercial fishing intrusions. It has
mobilized various stakeholders in its environmental protection endeavors: an inter-agency, inter-sector forum for its marine eco-system problem with
the Sulficio management; and, the student organizations for watershed rehabilitation. It is also trying to make a dent on dole-outs mentality by
reducing its allocation for welfare assistances to individuals in various situations and assistance to barangay projects is strictly on counterpart-basis.
It has been aggressively bringing the government closer to the people by intensifying extension efforts in livestock and poultry industry. On the other
hand, it has completely left the development of commerce, and small and medium scale industry to the private sector.
It is in Infrastructure Development that the people perceive a slow down in fund releases and actual project implementation. Its desire to complete
the existing unfinished projects is severely hampered by its loan amortization obligations and equipment maintenance.
Pursuant to the provisions of the law, the LCE exercises general supervision and over-all control. He implements all approved policies, programs,
projects, services and activities of the LGU and is responsible for the human resource development and staff management. This Administration’s
481
enforcement of all laws and ordinances and its exercise of corporate powers provided for under Sec. 22 of the Code are encouraging except in
taxation, livelihood generation, fishery and stray animals. Moreover, it relegates in the background the issue on who has administrative control over
Nogas Island. Thus far, it has continued also the previous Administration’s treatment of Local Tax Ordinance of 1993 –partial implementation. The
Ordinance’s real property aspect and tourism resources are yet to be fully exploited pending new initiatives on resource and revenue generation. Its
human resource potential is just partially tapped. At present, there is no parallel move leading to stray animal control. It has yet to tighten its property
and supply management. Its performance on repair and maintenance of vehicles/ equipment (donated or locally acquired) has started right but has
missed the cleanliness of municipal roads other than those surrounding the town plaza and park. Such could bring considerable impact on the clean
and green program and raise its current standing from being the second to the last in the province.
The LCE is mandated to chair all local special development bodies but, due to political demands of his persons and compound nature of his duties
and functions, the chair cannot oversee all of them. Through its recommendatory powers, local special bodies assist the LCE in his policy-making
chores. Most of these LSBs meet when need arises, some when evaluators are coming. Consistent with its thrust on people empowerment, this
Administration has provided though minimal, funds for these LSBs operation. As a result, development programs and priorities are now identified
and approved by the MDC and endorsed/presented to the sanggunian for adoption. Thus, approved projects can no longer be realigned,
reprogrammed or sidelined by the mayor and the sanggunian without due consultation with the MDC. This process is not expedient but it promotes
consistency of development thrusts and direction. Other special bodies enjoy the same treatment. Tried and tested in the past, by force of
circumstance the MDCC has functioned well during emergencies, even without funds.
The LGC-mandated local special bodies (LSB) presently established in the LGU are:
1. Municipal Development Council (MDC);
2. Qualifications, Bids and Awards Committee (BAC);

482
3. Local School Board (MSB);
4. Local Health Board (MHB); and,
5. Local Peace and Order Council (MPOC)
Other special bodies were created through department orders, circulars and decrees such as:
1. People’s Law-Enforcement Board (PLEB);
2. Municipal Agriculture and Fisheries Council (MAFC);
3. Municipal Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Management Council (MFARMC);
4. Municipal Disaster and Coordinating Council (MDCC); and,
5. Clean and Green Program Council.
Other bodies were created through provincial directives and ordinances like:
1. Municipal Historical Committee
2. Municipal Council for Culture and the Arts
3. Municipal Tourism Council.
A.2 EXISTING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, ITS PROBLEMS AND POTENTIALS
a. Organization
The municipal government of Anini-y serves primarily as a general purpose government for the coordination and delivery of basic, regular and direct
services and effective governance of the inhabitants within its territorial jurisdiction. Taking into consideration its service requirements and financial
capability, this local government unit is designed and is implementing its own organizational structure and staffing pattern subject to the minimum
483
standards and guidelines prescribed by the Civil Service Commission and RA 7160. Its elective positions, which are common to all municipalities,
are a municipal mayor, a vice-mayor, and the SB members.
▪ OFFICE OF THE MUNICIPAL MAYOR
As Local Chief Executive, the mayor is responsible for the human resource development and overall management of staff and personnel of the
LGU. His Office exercises supervision and control over all programs/projects and other governmental activities/concerns pursuant to the
provisions of the law. Such responsibility is so broad a casual is designated as Municipal Information Officer and assigned in his Office to
communicate to the publics his policies, programs, projects and activities. This MIO serves as technical assistant, who prepares drafts for
proposed resolutions and other documents. The same staff is also assigned to manage all economic enterprises of the municipal government
including the LGU-run Sira-an Hot Spring Resort. Furthermore, all utility workers get from him instructions on general services-related works.
The Mayor’s Office’ staff compliment of 40 personnel: 12 permanent; 2 casuals; and, 25 job orderlies is assigned to the following units:
1. Administrative and Personal Staff
2. Livestock Auction and Public Markets
3. Sira-an Hot Spring Resort
4. Human Resource Development
5. Municipal Information Office
6. Permit and Licensing
7. General Services
The local government machinery is top heavy and there is over concentration of tasks on one unit which defies the management principle on
span of control. Such arrangement could result to inefficiency, ineffectiveness and uneconomical governance. It is common observation the
484
personnel assigned to general services tasks and Sira-an Resort are not fully utilized. Generally, the same observation applies to another 40 job
order basis personnel assigned in various departments.
▪ OFFICES OF THE MUNICIPAL VICE MAYOR AND THE SANGGUNIANG BAYAN
The Office of the Vice-Mayor is a one-man office. RA 7160 makes him the sanggunian presiding officer and a man-in-waiting. As a body, the
Sangguniang Bayan enacts ordinances, approves resolutions and appropriate funds for the general welfare of Anini-y and its inhabitants. It also
exercises the LGU’s corporate powers pursuant to LGC provisions. The Secretary to the Sanggunian assists this law-making body. This
Sanggunian is composed of the presiding Vice Mayor, 8 elected SB members (4 from each opposing political camps) and 2 ex-officio members:
Liga ng mga Barangay president and, Pederasyon ng mga Sangguniang Kabataan chairperson -both perceived to have separate camp
leanings, such that deliberations have become exhaustive before vital and necessary resolutions/ ordinances are passed. Many “division of the
house” on politically sensitive issues clearly show partisan positions. The LCE’s lobby for his programs and projects during sessions does not
guarantee but sometimes facilitate its passage in the legislative mill.
Nevertheless, the legislative body is earnest in its duties and responsibilities in passing vital and necessary resolutions and ordinances for the
improvement of basic services delivery. The SB members in many cases attend special bodies’ meetings and other executive, policy-making
and social activities, both at the municipal and barangays levels. Thus, local policies and laws are easily implemented at the 23 barangays.
485
▪ OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY TO THE SANGGUNIAN
The Secretary takes charge of the SB secretariat services, attends sanggunian meetings, keeps a journal of its proceedings, acts as safe
keeper of the LGU seal, and affixes the same with her signature to all ordinances, resolutions, and other official acts of the sanggunian. The
Secretariat ably supports its legislators’ regular activities and has performed commendably considering that the Secretary doubles as Human
Resource Management Officer and its steno-aide doubles as mayor’s secretary. Among its functions, the translation into dialect and caused the
publications of all ordinances and approved resolutions is not practiced regularly unless so demanded as this activity requires appropriate
budget. As HRMO, she receives an honorarium for this very tedious job. A casual worker presently assists the secretary on this matter.
▪ MUNICIPAL TREASURY OFFICE
This office’s operational components are tax education and information, field inspection of private, commercial or industrial establishments,
disbursements and cash receipts. The municipal treasurer acts as the LGU’s chief financial officer, advises the mayor, as the case may be, the
SB and other local and national government officials concerned, regarding the disposition of the local government funds, and on such other
matters relative to public finance. Under the technical supervision of the Provincial Treasurer, the Office takes custody of and exercises proper
funds management and takes charge of the disbursements of all government funds and all other such funds the custody of which may be
entrusted to this office by law or other competent authority. Its staff inspects private commercial and industrial establishments within the
jurisdiction of the LGU in relation to tax ordinance implementation, pursuant to the provisions of the LGC. This Office maintains and updates the
tax information system of the LGU. This Office also performs functions for supply and property management.
486
An OIC/ Assistant Municipal Treasurer currently runs this very sensitive LGU unit. The following staff provides her assistance: Cashier II,
Revenue Collection Clerks, Miscellaneous Clerk and a Market and Slaughterhouse Collector. The Office is only partially implementing the
provisions of the 1993 Local Tax Ordinance.
▪ MUNICIPAL ACCOUNTANCY OFFICE
This office preserves proper check and balance in the financial operation of the municipal LGU. The accounting services and the internal audit
services that are the operational components of this Office are presently the responsibility of an accounting officer-designate who is a clerk from
the treasury office. He receives less than that accorded to a unit head being a casual and the SB has been lenient on him for untimely
submission of financial reports for its members’ guidance, especially in use, lease and grants of municipal properties and resources as basis for
its decisions in prescribing the terms and conditions for its operation. Two permanent and 2 casual personnel currently man the Office.
▪ MUNICIPAL ASSESSMENT OFFICE
The Office’s operational components are tax mapping, real property valuation and assessment, real property identification and accounting, field
surveys for the assessment rolls, and assessment records and reports. The assessor acts as the real property tax officer. Under his supervision,
the Office ensures that all laws and policies governing the appraisal and assessment of real properties for taxation are properly executed. It
initiates reviews and recommends changes in policies and objectives, plans, and programs, techniques, procedures and practices in the
evaluation and assessment of real properties for taxation purposes. It also establishes a systematic method of real property assessment.
487
It can maximize its revenue generating capacity by initiating moves for policy recommendation on how the millions worth of ANTECO posts and
electrical lines, DOTC and other communication towers could possibly pay real property taxes in the municipality. The Municipal Assessor has
the Local Assessment Operations Officer II as his only permanent staff. Currently, a casual and two job order employees assist them.
▪ MUNICIPAL BUDGET OFFICE
Budget integration and reports preparation as its operational domain, this Office is responsible for preparing forms, orders, and circulars that
embodies instructions on budgetary and appropriation matters for the signature of the Mayor. It assists the Mayor in the preparation of the
budget and during budget hearings. It studies and evaluates budgetary implications of the proposed legislation and submits comments and
recommendations thereto. The budget officer may exercise such other powers and performs such other duties and functions as may be
prescribed by law and ordinances. This Office has one permanent staff –the budgeting assistant with one casual employee. The Budget Office
under its inter-office coordination and assistance on budget preparation function is still to observe the process of reviewing the budget and
discuss them with the respective heads of every department and offices of the local government unit in a staff session with the local finance
committee before budget proposals are consolidated and submitted to the Sanggunian for approval.
▪ MUNICIPAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT OFFICE
This Office takes charge of the planning and coordinating development works. Specifically, the MPDO is tasked to formulate integrated
economic, social, physical and other development studies/plans and policies for the Local Development Council’s considerations. It ably
integrates and coordinates sectoral plans and studies undertaken by different functionaries, groups or agencies, however it has not thoroughly
488
monitored and evaluated the implementation of the different development programs, projects and activities. Its staff is not proficient to conduct
continuing studies, researches and training programs necessary to evolve plans and programs for implementation, thus its comprehensive plans
preparation and other development planning document took long to complete. Its income and expenditures patterns analysis, and fiscal plans
and policies formula for consideration of the LGU are all verbally recommended.
On the other hand, this Office absorbs all other concerns that are not presently being covered by a local or national office operating within the
municipality. Such responsibility areas are:
a. resource generation and liaison works
b. tourism, trade and industry, investments and promotion
c. arts and cultural affairs, and historical committee works
d. disaster coordination
e. mobility and accessibility at the national and provincial roads
f. secretariat works for various special development bodies
g. zoning and map preparation
h. environment and natural resources management, excluding coastal resource management
i. gender and development, child-friendly movements and Country Program for Children
j. special events, consultancy and many other odds and ends
Giving assistance in the integration of plans, programs, policies and guidelines is 1 Project Development Assistant who is frequently requested
to do stage decorations and streamers while a clerk from the mayor’s office extends time to provide office filing and encoding functions. Lately, a
casual assists the MPDC in coordinating the conduct of the Urukay Festival.
489
▪ MUNICIPAL ENGINEERING OFFICE
The Office takes charge of the engineering sector with the municipal engineer acting as the Local Building Official. It initiates activities, reviews
and recommends changes in policies and objectives, plans and programs, techniques, procedures and practices in infrastructure development
and public works of the LGU, in general. It also advises the LCE on infrastructure, public works and other engineering matters. It administers,
coordinates, supervises and controls the construction, maintenance, improvement and repair of roads, bridges and other engineering and public
works projects of the municipal government.
This Office has yet to prepare a municipal drainage plan and advise the LCE on what to do with the worsening drainage problem at the
Poblacion. The MEO has no permanent staff but utilizes the services of two casual employees.
▪ MUNICIPAL HEALTH OFFICE
The Municipal Health Officer heads this office that implements the health programs, projects and activities while giving special concern on the
prevention and control of disease. The Office promotes and maintains health sanitation of the community, participates in the planning and
evaluation of the health for the community, oversees public health administrations, and regulates proper environmental sanitation. Likewise, it is
expected to be in the frontline of health service delivery, particularly during and in the aftermath of man-made and natural disasters and
calamities. This Office has the most number of clientele and is second to the mayor’s office in terms of number of staff.
▪ MUNICIPAL CIVIL REGISTRY OFFICE
Headed by the Municipal Civil Registrar, this Office takes charge of the civil registration program of the LGU. It develops plans and strategies,
particularly those that have to do with civil registry programs and projects. Upon approval of the LCE, it implements said program which the
mayor is empowered to implement, and which the sanggunian is empowered to provide for as mandated by RA 7160. The civil registration
490
activities include registration of births reported to this Office delayed or within the reglamentary period and keep, preserve and maintain and up-
date records in the registry of births, court orders/ decrees, register of founding and register of legal instruments. Also, the Office takes charge of
the registration of marriages and death as reported. The three casual clerks are supervised by the MCR for these activities.
The optional offices are those of the municipal social welfare and development and municipal agricultural services –devolved from the national
government. The social welfare and development officer and the municipal agriculturist hold unit level ranks. They receive full compensation
commensurate to their positions. A permanent and a casual worker assist the MSWDO while 5 agricultural technologists presently assist the
municipal agriculturist in the delivery of agricultural services. The MAO and position for two agritechs are vacant. Due to government thrusts and
priorities, these Offices have become reactive, instead of being preventive and holistic in their approach to basic service delivery. These Offices are
constrained to operate within limited budget, which further limits their field presence.
▪ MUNICIPAL AGRICULTURAL SERVICES OFFICE
Extension of the agricultural services is its primary concern. It develops plans and strategies and upon approval implements these agricultural
programs and projects ensuring maximum assistance and access to resources in the production, processing and marketing of agricultural and
aqua and marine products are extended to farmers, fishermen and local entrepreneurs. This Office must be in the frontline of basic agricultural
service delivery, particularly those needed for the inhabitants’ survival during and in the aftermath of man-made and natural disasters.
491
▪ MUNICIPAL SOCIAL WELFARE AND DEVELOPMENT OFFICE
This Office takes charge of the social welfare and development services. It is concerned with the implementation of the municipal welfare
programs for the disabled, elderly, women, children, youth and, victims of drug addiction, abuse and exploitation. It is tasked to prevent juvenile
delinquency and such other activities that could eliminate or minimize the ill effects of poverty. It is made responsible for supporting welfare
programs for the youth, senior citizens and persons with disabilities and it initiates such programs when there is none. It is expected to be in the
forefront of service delivery particularly those that have to do with immediate relief during aid assistance in the aftermath of man-made and
natural disasters and natural calamities. Majority of its funding is focused on assistance to individuals in crisis situation

b. Staffing
TABLE LA1 details the LGU workforce composition. Its current organizational chart (refer to Figure __) clearly defines the valuing relationship of the
different offices, their functional connection and their inter-dependence to one another. The 72 plantilla positions are broken down into 12 elective,
45 permanent, 2 temporary, and 13 vacant plantilla positions.
• ON SYSTEM OF PERSONNEL RECRUITMENT
The Personnel Qualification and Selection Board that is mandated to observe the Civil Service Commission’s standards and criteria for career
positions, as mandated by RA 7160 and other pertinent laws and regulations is not functional. As observed, the LCE serves as the talent scout
(as it is inherent in the position’s “hire and fire” function), selects, and hires. Moreover, the 13 vacant positions are not published so that many of
the most qualified, talented and idealistic residents have not applied and are not hired. Perhaps, funds inadequacy is not the reason as a
corresponding number of casual and temporary employees were hired to augment deficiency in personnel numbers sacrificing technical
requirements for expedient service delivery. On top of this, 25 job order office employees were hired as augmentation to clerical staff and
medical extension aides. Another 40 job orders including the 6 Sira-an caretakers that work in shift, 11 market cleaners and 23 day care
workers are also fielded in public markets and barangay day care centers, respectively.
• ON PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
The SB Secretary, concurrently the municipal HRMO administers and supervises personnel management and career development. These
responsibilities except for recruitment and selection, include performance appraisal, merit and promotion, pay and classification, as well as,
leave administration. However, this task overload is causing improper personnel performance appraisal-related activities, thus productivity
bonus is given pro-rata as no viable tool is available within the system to be used as basis for granting proper incentives.
493
• ON TRAINING AND PERSONNEL RELATIONS
Budget allocation has sacrificed the holistic capability building and staff development programs for all personnel geared towards better work
performance in favor of wages for political appointees. On the other hand, employees and officials attend training and seminars relevant to their
responsibilities and necessary to their positions especially those prescribed by pertinent memoranda and issuances from line agencies. It can
be assessed also that technical expertise and knowledge gained became more personal than organization-oriented because these are not
shared in the light of collaborative direction setting and integrated approach for the overall optimum performance of the local government in
basic services delivery to the constituents. Employee relations are made more personal than professional as work efficiency is viewed as having
to finish the work within the targeted time. At times, it is viewed in terms of office hours of duty.
• PAY AND POSITION CLASSIFICATION
Anini-y is classified as fifth class municipality. However, its career employees are benefiting a pay scale belonging to fourth class LGUs but at
several steps lower. There are however, those that receive honoraria for extra duties assigned to them, such payment are duly enacted through
pertinent SB resolutions. Still there are two workers that are given technical chores yet, are not accorded bonus for their extra efforts.
TABLE LA1 also details the personnel distribution and utilization. The table shows the organization is top heavy. If the job orderlies are taken out, it
would appear that the Mayor’s Office still has the most number of employees with 16, followed by the Sangguniang Bayan and its Secretariat with
14 , the rural health with 9, the treasury and agriculture with 7 and 6, respectively. Of the 135 current employees, 89 have either reached college
level or are college graduates, 38 have spent years in high school or are graduates of a secondary school and vocational schools, and 7 are
elementary graduates. Only 13 are first grade eligible, 44 second graders and no third grade eligible. Among the unit heads, the acting accountant is
very vulnerable to undue pressures being not eligible to the position. The rest of the department heads can stand toe to toe with the other LGU’s.
However, their respective support staff needs more technical and skills training.
494
c. Information and Monitoring Services
Office automation and computerization is deemed important for convenience is achieved in recording of important data and program preparation,
performing office works and monitoring project planning and implementation. To realize this, all offices are computerized except the Municipal
Agricultural Services Office but information on the current and various activities, programs and projects of the municipality, particularly of these
agencies with computers are still not accessible to most of the constituencies as printing of these information remain prohibitive. Also, the
information on barangay level programs/activities is not, at all times updated. The two-way radio system established to support communication
dissemination purposes is not functional. In limited scale, program dissemination and monitoring are done during meetings and visitations.
The municipal Project Monitoring and Evaluation Committee had been instituted for this purpose. However, its existence and function is short-lived.
This committee is supposedly tasked to serve as the coordination and communication unit in project implementation, to see to it that implementing
agencies function as programmed, that the project is implemented accordingly as well as, to identify the gaps in project implementation and
recommend how to correct these gaps. No information is available for the cause of its inaction.
d. Project/s Implementation
An executive policy was enunciated with the ABC in session: “municipal financial assistance requires corresponding equity fund from the requesting
barangay and only projects that are not brought to completion due to lack of funds are eligible.” This policy requires the barangays to submit their
long list of programs, projects and activities that are included in their respective medium-term barangay development plans. Out of these listings a
495
short list is prepared under the infrastructure, economic, social and, development administration sectors. From the respective sectoral groupings,
beneficiary barangays are chosen according to municipal project priorities, barangay equity participation, project’s practicality and responsiveness to
current situation, and availability of lot, if needed. Such policy is seen to eliminate little by little, dole out mentality.
Implementation of projects under the approved 20% development fund is subject to the imprimatur of the LCE. However, project implementation will
be on track if the concerned unit identified in the AIP Form 1 as implementer or project supervisor make proper initiatives, such as submitting the
purchase requests as early as possible to the LCE office to remind him a project is on stream for implementation.
The equipment loan of the LGU has caused undue shortage of available development funds that people perceived this Administration has minimal
projects. More than 55% of the development funds went to loan amortization, equipment maintenance and operations. Project funds are very limited
that the municipality sought fund sharing programs at all levels. This resulted to the construction of several TEEP/SEDIP school building and other
school facility projects and other programs. Big-funded but unfinished projects like the new swimming pool in Sira-an, multi-purpose covered court,
and the Salvacion fishing port remained untouched due to fund shortage. Other projects promised by the province are not yet released, some due to
documentary requirements while others are of unknown reasons. Early release of funds requires fulltime follow up by somebody close to the
provincial agencies and another very close to the powers that be. National projects are also slow in coming/deferred or re-aligned/reprogrammed as
the national government is likewise short of funds and other hosts of reasons, political or otherwise. There is a need to have contacts at the agency
that shall facilitate documentary and fund release requirements. Only the fertilizer grants were hastily released.
496
e. Local Government Fiscal Management
• ANNUAL BUDGET
The Provincial Local Finance Committee found that the municipal Annual Budget for FY 2004 with appropriations of PhP22,643,232.00 under
Appropriation Ordinance No. 2003-04 showed among others an appropriations for LEAVE CREDITS MONETIZATION, MAYOR’S INTELLIGENCE FUND,
and HONORARIA and that PERSONAL SERVICES limitation was exceeded. Notwithstanding the above findings, the budget showed apparent
compliance with the provisions of RA 7160.
Appropriation Ordinance No. 2004-06 set PhP22,620,738.00 as CY 2005 Annual LGU Performance Budget and specified BEGINNING BALANCE
and GRANTS AND AIDS as Zero. General Fund is expected to come from OPERATING AND MISCELLANEOUS REVENUES (PhP813,174.53) and TAX
(Php21,807, 513.47). These funds are programmed, to wit: PERSONAL SERVICES = PhP13,966,623; MOOE = PhP2,995,500; CAPITAL OUTLAY =
PhP400,000; NON-OFFICE = PhP23,000; 20% DEV’T FUND = PhP4,104,148; 5% BUDGETARY RESERVE = PhP1,131,037; and UNAPPROPRIATED
BALANCE = PhP430.
• REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES
Among local revenue sources, OTHER LOCAL TAXES listed consistently the highest. REAL PROPERTY TAX and MUNICIPAL BUSINESS TAX came in 2nd
and 3rd but, both showed decreased collections last year. Income from MARKET and PERMIT FEES collections was up last year –showing potentials
as other major sources of local revenues. Generally, incomes for CY 2002-2004 see-sawed: PhP21,413,948.43 in 2002; PhP23,044,879.49 in
2003; and, PhP22,479,291.94 last year.
497
For the last 3 years, SALARIES AND WAGES for regular and casual employees averaging Php8,862,366.16 per annum is the major expense item.
Other personnel related expenses (PERA, ACA, RATA, LOCAL TRAVEL ALLOWANCE, CLOTHING ALLOWANCE, TERMINAL LEAVE BENEFITS, BONUSES,
HONORARIA, HAZARD PAY, LONGEVITY PAY, OVERTIME AND NIGHT PAY, and CASH GIFT amounted to: PhP5,574,895.85 in 2002; PhP5,517,560.47 in
2003; and PhP6,925,401.24 in 2004) averaged PhP6,005,952.52 during the period. Moreover, the total personnel contributions, i.e.; LIFE AND
RETIREMENT INSURANCE; PAG-IBIG; PHILHEALTH; and, ECC averaged annually to Php1,165,457.76. Total expenditures for last 3 years averaged
PhP21,929,662.50 and is steadily increasing by 15.55% in 2003 and another 4.51% in 2004. The LGU exceeded again the Personal Services
Limitations of 55% prescribed by the Local Government Code by 23.11%.
• TAXES COLLECTED
Anini-y is 93.54% IRA-dependent. Its IRA averaged PhP20,494,038 these last 2 years. Its TOTAL GENERAL COLLECTIONS (business tax, fees and
charges, economic enterprise and internal revenue allotment amounted to PhP21,934,063.78 for 2003 and PhP21,884,485.82 for 2004)
averaged PhP21,909,274.80. Its other revenue source comes from real property tax, with increased collections from Php538,736.12 in 2003
and PhP739,054.00 in 2004. Comparatively, business tax collection is down –(PhP)773,745.32 in 2003 to 255,029.57 in 2004. Fees & charges
is down a bit from (PhP)491,807.47 to 489,917.45 but economic enterprise almost tripled from Php206,254.99 to 613, 718.80.
498
B. DETERMINATION OF EXISTING NEEDS AND PRESENTATION OF PROJECTED AND FUTURE SCENARIOS
B1. LOCAL GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATION
The leader’s progressive thinking and desire to correct past inequities and weaknesses and the desire to complete the existing unfinished projects is
the current Administration’s assets/potentials. Its sectoral development initiatives are steps on the right development directions. Its strategies and
actions are positive and are gaining inter-agency, inter-sector support. At this stage, it has accomplished many Firsts in local governance.
However, it has this short list of organizational development needs to address:
➢ Need for reorganization to meet future demands in tourism, investment promotion and small and medium scale industry services
➢ Need for internalization and communication of agency’s development thrusts and direction consistency to optimize benefits from limited
funds
➢ Need to institute proper performance monitoring and control in all project and ordinance implementation activities
➢ Need to institute effective budgetary preparation process, internal control, and property and supply management
499
B2. LOCAL FISCAL MANAGEMENT
Needs/ problems on local finances are identified as follows:
➢ Need to make new initiatives on resource and revenue generation in the light of inadequate financial resources burdened by loan amortization
and need to finance increasing cost of basic service delivery
➢ Lax implementation of rules and regulations and methods of revenue collection, inefficient budgeting of finances and inability to obtain capital
investments
C. FORMULATION OF GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
GOAL: “To develop a pro-active and an efficient and effective municipal government organization responsive to the development needs
of the locality.”
OBJECTIVES: By the end of of 2014,
a. To re-engineer the current municipal government management structure for effective and efficient
implementation of programs/projects and responsive basic service delivery.
▪ Establishment of the Enterprise Development and Management Section under the Mayor’s Office
▪ Establishment of the Tourism, Investment and Trade Promotion Section under the MPDO
▪ Establishment of the Environment and Natural Resources Section under the Municipal Agricultural Services Office
500
b. To improve the local fiscal management system as a tool for adequately meeting the present and future financial needs of basic service
delivery.
D. PROPOSALS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
D.1 POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS and STRATEGIES
1. ON CHECK AND BALANCE.
The balance of forces running the local government is a vital ingredient for a vibrant democracy. Such balance when used for ulterior ends is
anti-development and unhealthy. Both camps should rise to the call of statesmanship and usher a double time march to unprecedented
progress and peace for Anini-y by individually initiating moves yet complementing/supplementing endeavors that will maximize the drawing in of
assistance and projects for the general welfare of the municipality and its inhabitants.
2. ON THE USE OF THE 20% DEVELOPMENT FUNDS.
To promote consistency of development thrusts and direction, a 3-year executive agenda should be delineated with the MDC and legislative
actions should be promulgated correspondingly whereby development programs and priorities, including loans and other amortizations are
identified and approved by the MDC and endorsed/presented to the sanggunian for adoption. MDC-approved projects can no longer be
realigned, reprogrammed or sidelined by the mayor and the sanggunian without due consultation with the MDC.
3. ON HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT AND STAFF MANAGEMENT.
Expenditures for direct public services should be given higher priority over administrative expenses by making public the 13 vacant positions so
that only the most qualified, talented and idealistic resident applicants are hired thereby realizing savings for more development projects.
501
• SYSTEM OF PERSONNEL RECRUITMENT
The Personnel Qualification and Selection Board that is mandated to observe the Civil Service Commission’s standards and criteria for
career positions should be made functional by giving it the reason to exist –effective screening and selection not a rubber stamp.
• ON PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT, PAY AND POSITION CLASSIFICATION
The designation of added responsibilities to someone currently holding a critical fulltime assignment should only be done when the new task
is within the ambit of his current duties and functions. Otherwise, an incentive package should be accorded the designate, such as extra
yearend productivity bonus for extra efforts.
Disproportional load assignment has overburdened some personnel perceived to be intelligent and diligent and resulted to dismal use of
available human resource potential for better basic services delivery. In this regard, a separate and fully qualified fulltime Human Resource
Management Officer should be appointed to administer and supervise personnel management and career development.
Over concentration of tasks on one unit could result to inefficiency, ineffectiveness and uneconomical governance. Such arrangement that
defies the management principle on span of control should be restructured by creating compartmentalized work units or by transferring
excess personnel to other units. Unit creation should put emphasis on those that are revenue generating.
• ON TRAINING AND PERSONNEL RELATIONS
The holistic personnel capability building and staff development programs may be sacrificed in favor of employees and officials’ training and
seminars that should generate a return on any amount invested in the form of projects or technical assistance. Otherwise, technical
expertise and knowledge gained should be shared to the organization by requiring trainees of post-training reports during staff meetings.
502
4. ON ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT.
The Project Monitoring and Evaluation Committee28 should be made functional by re-organizing the body and providing funds for its operation.
Furthermore, a regular unit head meeting should be conducted with the LCE presiding to ensure smooth planning and project implementation
especially those under the approved 20% development fund, such meeting should make project implementation on track by having the
concerned unit identified in the AIP Form 1 as implementer or project supervisor submit the purchase requests as early as possible to the LCE
to remind him a project is on stream for implementation.
A separate and independent accounting and internal audit service unit should be established by designating a full-pledge fully compensated
accountancy staff to preserve proper check and balance in the financial operation of the municipal government.
Budget preparation and review should be made participatory by having the local finance committee conduct one on one discussion with the
respective heads and staff of every department especially the LGU extension service offices before budget proposals are consolidated and
submitted to the Sanggunian for approval.
The two-way radio system that links the barangays and the government center and, supports information and communication dissemination
purposes should at all times be made operational. Otherwise, the LGU should exert best effort for network coverage expansion to presently
unreachable areas by coordinating closely with telecommunications companies.
The LGU should tighten its general services/property and supply management by establishing a general services section29.
28
The Project Monitoring and Evaluation Committee is instituted to serve as the coordination and communication unit in project implementation, ensure that implementing agencies function as
programmed and that project are implemented accordingly as well as, to identify the gaps in project implementation and recommend how to correct these gaps.
29
The General Services Section shall have Records Management; Security and Janitorial Services; and, Property and Supply Management as its operational domain. Janitorial services include
the cleanliness of municipal roads other than those surrounding the town plaza and park. Property management includes repair and maintenance of vehicles/ equipment (donated or locally
acquired) and buildings while supply management includes the monitoring of the in and out of all supplies including construction materials while
503
5. ON RESOURCE AND REVENUE GENERATION.
• REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES
Revenue collection strategies especially on Real Property and Municipal Business Taxes should be reviewed and improved to maintain an
increasing trend in income generation while a cap on Personal Services should be set to provide a balance between administrative
expenses and direct public extension support service expenses. Furthermore, the LGU should maximize its revenue generating capacity by
initiating moves on how ANTECO, DOTC and other communication property owners can be made to pay real property taxes in Anini-y.
The 1993 Local Tax Ordinance should be reviewed by a study group to determine which provisions are for full implementation, retained or
amended before it undergo the legal process of amending a tax ordinance.
Personnel loan repayment and contributions, i.e.; Life and Retirement Insurance; Pag-IBIG; Philhealth; and, ECC should never be used for
other purposes except for the purpose it was collected or withheld as it compounds the burden of the personnel affected.
• TAXES COLLECTED
Anini-y is 93.54% IRA-dependent. Its total general collections should be improved by promoting and having a direct hand in public and
private economic enterprises development and management and intensifying business tax and, fees and charges collections..
6. ON PRO-ACTIVE CIVIL SOCIETY PARTICIPATION.
The thrust on people empowered growth and development at all levels from program planning, implementation, to monitoring and evaluation
should be purposive and continuously pursued by strengthening the local development bodies. LSB strengthening meant not just providing
funds for their operation and active participation but also by integrating concerns that are attended to by the same personalities, i.e.: the local
Historical Committee, local Council for Culture and the Arts and the Municipal Tourism Council may hold the same meeting where their
respective problems, issues, needs, and concerns may be discussed and responded to in one setting.
504

The Administration should show the necessary political will to respond to the following issues:
o administrative control over Nogas Island
o solid waste management, absence of drainage system in the urban center and cleanliness of municipal roads

municipal social gathering ever and the most successful generating 68% attendance from all its residents and all out support from all sectors. The
Festival put Anini-y in the regions cultural calendar and map. Thus, the Provincial Government has selected Anini-y to represent Antique in the
Western Visayas’ most prestigious cultural festival –a manifestation of the Governor’s full thrust and confidence in the LGU’s capabilities.
511
Human resource can accomplish untold feats, if properly motivated and directed.
a. MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Taking into consideration its service requirements and financial capability, the LGU has designed and is implementing its own organizational structure
and staffing pattern subject to the minimum standards and guidelines prescribed by the Civil Service Commission. Its Organizational Chart is shown
below:
(3) Financial Status
a. PARTNER NGOS AND ORGANIZATIONS
The Hernaez Administration has instituted significant reforms. Its local development council is now represented, aside from the Punong Barangays, by
the various sectoral organizations with municipal-wide constituencies, such as: OFWs, Philippines Veterans Associations, Anini-y Chapter; Federation of
Senior Citizens’ Associations; SK Federation; Anini-y Cutflower’s Association/ Womens Group; Anini-y Irrigator’s Association; Anini-y Cooperative
Development Council; Anini-y Public Schools Teachers Association; Anini-y Tricycle Drivers’ Association; MAFC; and, MFARMC. Development
programs and priorities are now identified with the LCE, endorsed by the development council in session and is sponsored at the Sanggunian by the
Chair, SB Committee on Appropriation –a regular MDC member. Thus, approved projects can no longer be realigned, reprogrammed or sidelined
without due consultation with the MDC. This process while tedious promotes consistency of development thrusts and direction.
Member NGOs are the Taytay Sa Kauswagan and the AFON represented by the Antique Development Foundation.
Aside from the Mayor who heads the local government’s executive department and his deputy -the vice-mayor, other appointed officials of this
department are: the municipal treasurer, assessor, acting municipal accountant, budget officer, planning and development coordinator, engineer/
building official, health officer and the civil registrar. Additional officials are the heads of optional units devolved from the national government (municipal
social welfare and development officer and the municipal agriculturist), and the municipal information officer-designate.
This Administration envisions a “God-centered, People-empowered Haven” for Anini-y. It has adopted “Community-based Tourism-Oriented
Sustainable Integrated Area Development” as its strategy to achieve this. For ease of recall, it has spelled its governance thrust as GLENN:
G - for God-centered Governance with the following elements:
512
i. Good management of bureaucracy that is effective, efficient and responsive
iii. Improved service delivery
iv. Efficient revenue generation and management
v. Thriving participatory democracy
L - for Liberating Livelihood
E - for Empowering Education and Socio-Cultural Development
N - for Necessary ‘Nfrastructures
N - for Nurturing ‘Nvironment and Eco-Tourism

in the fields of __, __, __, and __. However, upon close scrutiny, it has minimal actions relative to ___, ___, ___, and ___ concerns. This can be
attributed to members’ individual capacities, experience, educational backgrounds and extent of committee works.
Private sector participation in development planning and implementation is minimal
Most prominent among national line agencies operating in the area is the DepEd’s School District’s Office. The other offices are the PNP, Philpost,
Phivolcs, Municipal Agrarian Reform Office, and Commission on Elections. Each of the DILG, DOH, the Philippine Coastguards, and Bureau of
Telecommunications has a representative to provide daily presence in Anini-y. The BIR agent is available twice a week; the Popcom Worker at least
once a week; a DENR team visits monthly; while the PCA technician comes irregularly.
The co-equal legislative department -Sangguniang Bayan has the vice-mayor sitting as its presiding officer. Its regular members are: SB members
Romeo C. Raba, Sr.; Virgilio M. Rendon, Jr.; Serafin M. Formarejo; Alberto A. Ayson; Bernabe E. Samones, Jr.; Elani D. Ople; Orlando O. Sumugat;
and, Eusebio S. Senanin. Ex-officio members are Liga ng mga Barangay President Baltazar U. Aguillon and, the Pederasyon ng mga Sangguniang
Kabataan Chairperson Silvius Jude E. Samones. An appointed official –the Secretary to the Sanggunian ably assists this law-making body.

➢ On CONTROL

i. OFFICE OF THE MUNICIPAL MAYOR

As LCE, the mayor is responsible for the human resource development
is responsible for overall management of staff and personnel of the local government
exercises supervision and control over all programs/projects and other governmental activities/concerns
The local government machinery is top heavy over concentration of tasks on a unit defies span of control principle resulting to inefficiency,
ineffectiveness and uneconomical governance. Personnel assigned to general services tasks and Sira-an Resort and most job orderlies are not
fully utilized
ii. OFFICES OF THE MUNICIPAL VICE MAYOR AND THE SANGGUNIANG BAYAN
Many “division of the house” on politically sensitive issues clearly show partisan positions.
The LCE’s lobby for his programs and projects during sessions does not guarantee but sometimes facilitate its passage in the legislative mill.
iii. OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY TO THE SANGGUNIAN

the Secretary doubles as Human Resource Management Officer its steno-aide doubles as mayor’s secretary translation into dialect and
publications of all ordinances and approved resolutions is not practiced regularly unless so demanded requires appropriate budget and
additional hands
515
iv. MUNICIPAL TREASURY OFFICE

This Office also performs functions for supply and property management.
However, only an officer in-charge (and not a full-pledge treasurer) runs this very sensitive unit
The Office is only partially implementing the provisions of the 1993 Local Tax Ordinance.
v. MUNICIPAL ACCOUNTANCY OFFICE

- preserves proper check and balance in the financial operation of the LGU
- accounting/internal audit services is lodged on an accounting officer-designate who is a clerk from the treasury office
- he receives less than that accorded to a unit head being a casual
- the Sanngunian has been lenient on him for his untimely submission of financial reports
vi. MUNICIPAL ASSESSMENT OFFICE

enable LGU to maximize its revenue generating capability, this Office has yet to initiate moves for policy recommendation on how the millions
worth of ANTECO electrical posts and lines, and the DOTC and other communication towers could possibly pay their real property taxes in
Anini-y.
vii. MUNICIPAL BUDGET OFFICE

under its inter-office coordination and assistance on budget preparation function is still to observe the process of reviewing the budget and
discuss them with the respective heads of every department and offices of the local government unit in a staff session with the local finance
committee before budget proposals are consolidated and submitted to the Sanggunian for approval.
viii. MUNICIPAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT OFFICE

it has not thoroughly monitored and evaluated the implementation of the different development programs, projects and activities staff is not
proficient to conduct continuing studies, researches & trng programs necessary to evolve plans/programs for implementation comprehensive
plans preparation and other development planning document took long to complete income & expenditures patterns analysis, and fiscal plans
and policies formula for LGU consideration are all verbally recommended.
absorbs all other concerns that are not presently being covered by a local or national office operating within the municipality.

and promotion; disaster coordination; mobility and accessibility at the national and provincial roads; gender % dev’t ; secretariat
works for various special development bodies; zoning and map preparation; environment and natural resources management,

ix. MUNICIPAL ENGINEER’S OFFICE
-advises the LCE on infrastructure, public works and other engineering matters
-administers, coordinates, supervises and controls the construction, maintenance, improvement and repair of roads, bridges and other
engineering and public works projects of the municipal government.
This Office has yet to prepare a municipal drainage plan and advise the LCE on what to do with the worsening drainage problem at the
Poblacion. The MEO has no permanent staff but utilizes the services of two casual employees.
x. MUNICIPAL HEALTH OFFICE
xi. MUNICIPAL CIVIL REGISTRY OFFICE
A permanent and a casual worker assist the MSWDO while 5 agricultural technologists presently assist the municipal agriculturist in the
delivery of agricultural services. The MAO and position for two agritechs are vacant. Due to government thrusts and priorities, these Offices
have become reactive, instead of being preventive and holistic in their approach to basic service delivery. These Offices are constrained to
operate within limited budget, which further limits their field presence. On the other hand, a casual is designated the municipal information
officer but still receives the casual’s salary rate.
xii. MUNICIPAL SOCIAL WELFARE AND DEVELOPMENT OFFICE
This Office takes charge of the social welfare and development services. It is concerned with the implementation of the municipal welfare
programs for the disabled, elderly, women, children, youth and, victims of drug addiction, abuse and exploitation. It is tasked to prevent juvenile
delinquency and such other activities that could eliminate or minimize the ill effects of poverty. It is made responsible for supporting welfare
programs for the youth, senior citizens and persons with disabilities and it initiates such programs when there is none. It is expected to be in the
forefront of service delivery particularly those that have to do with immediate relief during aid assistance in the aftermath of man-made and
natural disasters and natural calamities. Majority of its funding is focused on assistance to individuals in crisis situation.
xiii. MUNICIPAL AGRICULTURAL SERVICES OFFICE
Extension of the agricultural services is its primary concern. It develops plans and strategies and upon approval implements these agricultural
programs and projects ensuring maximum assistance and access to resources in the production, processing and marketing of agricultural and
aqua-cultural and marine products are extended to farmers, fishermen and local entrepreneurs. This Office must be in the frontline of basic
agricultural service delivery, particularly those needed for the inhabitants’ survival during and in the aftermath of man-made and natural
disasters.
