V. RATIONALE/OVERVIEW OF THE ACTIVITY

Our national hero, Dr. Jose P. Rizal once said that “Ang Kabataan ang Pag-asa ng Bayan”,
which emphasized to believe that with the active and holistic participation of the youth in the
society it can obtain significant movements that supports the development and success of the
nation as a whole.
The Municipality of Bulalacao is a 3rd class municipality hounded with financial constraints
which is located at the southernmost tip of the province of Oriental Mindoro, it has municipal
government that is responsive to the needs of the locality and effectively manages its
resources to sustain growth and development.
The importance of livestock in the economics of developing countries can be measured in
terms of human health, contribution to gross domestic product, pathway out of poverty, and
buffer against unforeseen disasters often faced by small-holder farmers. In addition to the
direct financial benefits it provides, animals play various roles for the benefit of small-holder
farmers such as: it provides food, manure as a soil amendment, traction, serves as savings
mechanism, and somehow uplift social status.
The Municipality of Bulalacao is one of the identified areas in the Province of Oriental
Mindoro that has high number of Out of School Youth (OSY). A greater percentage of its
population is dependent on farming as the major source of income to support their family.
Despite of insufficient fund, the proponents are actively operating such activities that supports
youth employment of this municipality like providing breeding animals available to the farmers
especially to the OSY. For the development and sustainability of this activity, the proponents
are leading towards the implementation of the Project KaKaBaKaBaKa (Kabuhayan para
sa Kabataan sa pag-aalaga ng Baboy, Kambing, Baka, Kalabaw).
The proposal is that five (5) selected youth of Bulalacao will be provided livestock animals
to disperse. Consequently, each will be given memorandum of agreement for the rules and
regulations of the project and entailed to take seminars and trainings for proper livestock
farming.
