* HISTORY OF THE BARANGAY

(Barangay Tayamaan, Mamburao, Occ. Mindoro)
The name of the barangay came from a medicinal plant called tayam which grew abundantly in this place during the early days. To cure chest pain and cough, the medicine man of the indigenous people used to boil the roots of the said plant and tell the sick person to drink the solution when asked as to where did he get the medicinal plant, the medicine man would answer from tayamaan . Due to the inward shape of the coast of this place which made it a good harbor, the Chinese bartered goods with the indigenous people living in this area during the pre-Spanish era. They avoided pirates who also sought at the coast of Tayamaan during stormy weather. When the pirates made Mamburao as their headquarters during the height of their piratical activities in the Philippines, they used to unload in Tayamaan the goods they have forcibly taken from the places they raided.

The indigenous people left Tayamaan when the pirates as harbor for their vintas with the exception of its coast, the wide plains of this place became a forest again. Since the sea near from Tayamaan is a good fishing ground, a few families from Lubang, Romblon, Panay, and Cebu decide to settle in this place. They built hut along the coast. Aside from fishing, they engaged in logging and farming. Despite the presence of malaria, they stayed in this settlement until the Japanese soldiers occupied Mindoro in 1942. The people evacuated to their places, to avoid foreign invaders. When peace was restored, the families who evacuated to other places returned to Tayamaan. Years later, families of Ilocano and Bicolano farmers also migrated to this place. The community grew until it became a sitio of Mamburao. In 1949, the people in Tayamaan requested the Municipal Council of Mamburao that their sitio created as barrio. The request was granted. Tayamaan was elevated to the status of a barrio in 1950. Sario de Luna was elected as the first teniente del barrio In order that their children would not walk kilometers to be able to attend classes at Mamburao Elementary School, the parents requested to the government authorities to open a Public school in Tayamaan. The department of Education granted this request. In 1960, an elementary school was opened in this place.

Due to benevolence, active service and good relationship with the people, Teniente del Barrio de Luna served as the leader of Tayamaan for twenty five long years. He retired in 1975, during martial law. He was succeeded by Barangay Captain Rolando Rosales. During Martial Law period, when Honorable Cesar Servando served as Municipal Mayor of Mamburao, a concrete pier was constructed in Tayamaan. The number of sea vessels which loaded and unloaded goods and passengers in this pier increased. During the administration of Barangay Captain Segundo Maguad, a number of school buildings were constructed in Tayamaan. It include the building donated by the officers and members of Filipino-Chinese Chambers of Commerce. In 1998, a tragic incident happened when Barangay Captain Michael Quintos of Tayamaan and his brother Paul, both sons of Assemblyman Richardo Quintos, were killed by undentified armed men in a party which they attended. A group of men, together with a well-known politician of Occidental Mindoro were tried before the court and sentenced with the maximum penalty allegedly the crime. The case is presently on appeal before the Supreme Court.

Aside from the aforementioned leader, those who served as Barangay Captain of Tayamaan were Silvero Taroma, Salus Sanchez, Domingo Umerez, Tita Aguilar and Noberto Inmenzo. The leader of the Barangay at present is Barangay Captain Rocky Gupilan.

METHODOLOGY

CHAPTER III

HOW DID YOU UNDERTAKE THE RESEARCH?

Its Friday afternoon, the first day we started to survey, we went to the first target household, they refused to face us. Someone shouted that they have no time. It was the very first day and we already taste refusal, we felt we were busted, but still, we went on to the next target household, at last someone face us, then a man shouted to our interview to mind first her child before the nonsense survey were doing, but still she stayed with us; at the end of the very first day of our survey we gathered forty eight data from the household we surveyed. Until the next day came, another shameful but a bit exiting work to be done. On that sunny day, we went from house to house, for the second time around we encountered households who are interested for the questionnaires we brought for them and there are also some who remained idle, but we were happy because we accomplish the second day having another eighty seven surveyed households. As we interviewed then they seriously answered the question like it was an examination, but there are some who took it only to filled their mouth with laugh and judgment, they answered it just for fun, but still we accepted their answers because we needed it. On our moment of pissed from that idle respondents, we approach by a woman, she got one questionnaire from us, while answering it she commented good and encouraging words which filled our vinegar-like gnawing stomach and derived us to continue to continue surveying.

We stop for a while to have some rest and eat our launch. After maybe an hour we started again, begun in a shanty, we didnt knew who lived, a little boy approach us and give us five peso coin and said thats all we have . (Maybe they thought we were soliciting, ) we laugh for that matter. Until that second day ended, were still laughing for that funny day. Our last day, was not that hard because most of the respondents cooperate actively and we saw in their face that they are very eager to participate. But on our way to a house then another house we saw mountains of soft things its kind a irritating, but we still went on until we gathered date from the needed numbers of respondents. On that survey we've done though we had encountered such bad moments but we still learned much as we go.

KIND OF RESEARCH:

We used Descriptive Research, a widely used research design. This study had undertaken a design called descriptive research, for the reason that this design aims to describe the nature of a situation in the existing time of the study; due to the fact that the main objective of our study is to obtain information by exploring the causes of a particular phenomena which is waste disposal. Another reason is, the fact that we had undertaken a survey for an objective of seeing a general picture of the population under investigation, in terms of socially and economically characteristics opinions and their knowledge about and behavior towards proper waste management. Questionnaire, personal interviews and observation also made it reliable that descriptive research had made this study.

FEELINGS AT FIRST:
Were hearing the word Thesis before, we heard that its too difficulty; the most difficult activity which is necessary matter to be done to utterly accomplish the degree your taking up. We heard this from junior college students, the way they pronounced the word difficult is very intense; you would feel it even youre not the one doing it, and yes we certainly felt it. Thats the reason why the word Thesis was glued into our mind; we should be ready! Then suddenly, not expecting we was astonished with what we heard from our professor, Mrs. Resa T. Suarez; she said that we are going to have a Thesis. Wow! What a word? Thesis? Then immediately, with just only a wink of an eye, the five W questions revolved into our mind: What? When? Where? Why? How?. I thought it is done only by those junior college students, we are only a freshmen students, then why? How we can? We dont have any idea about it.(we are wondering). These were the reactions of mine we are so much surprised with our professors given work. Were kind a nervous and alittle bit excited with it.

TOOLS

OF

RESEARCH:

The tool used in this study is Statistics because of the interpretation of the data represented by a graph. Statistics also mean Interpretation.

INSTRUMENT USED:
We used to collect information in our survey using Questionnaires as an instrument. We used it to supply the necessary informations to complete this research study.

It is commonly used as informative survey studies and in measurement of attitudes and opinions, in other words a Questionnaire is simply a set of questions, which should be answered properly by a required number of proper selected respondents. We used this instrument, due to the fact that it is a commonly used in behavioral research or social research which are both took by us, the researchers. We had conducted a questioning method because for all we know, it is the most effective technique in the survey approach. We made the questions more reliable which are structed beforehand. The sample questions needed for the research problem which is about proper waste management.

RECOMMENDATION AND
CONCLUSION

SUGGESTION /

CHAPTER V

SUGGESTION / RECOMMENDATION
Based on the findings, it was further recommended that every barangay government should conceptualized an advocation focusing on the waste products produced by the activities done by its people and from its people also. In some ways Barangay officials of Barangay Tayamaan should have proper implementation of policies concerning the proper way of disposing waste products. Multa sa Bawat Maling Patatapon ng Basura strictly and effectively is a project which is further suggested. Barangay officials should do their maneuver in encouraging their people to practice garbage segregation as well as disposing it. It was also further recommended that SK Members especially the SK Chairman should assemble the youths vigilance on their community and fellowmen. Projects such as placing trash cans with labels-Biodegradable, Non-biodegradable and recyclable in each sideways in their Barangay; Oplans-Linis with youth participation or youth participants and placing posts showing proper waste disposal are further suggested.

Based on the tally results most of the households interviewed said and answered that Barangay Tayamaan has public toilets but womens are not separate from mens toilet, ergo, a further recommendation is accounted that it is better to have separate public toilets for different gender for safety and for the better. As an addition Barangay Officials should visit this public toilets even once a week for the assurance, that it is a properly used and cared by the resident when using it. Residence should invoke to the Barangay Government or on the Municipal Government for Garbage Collectors for the collection of garbage's of every household, for them to avoid burning it to minimize Global warming, of course. it was also further recommended that households in the focused Barangay should continue the maintenance of cleaning their toilets always. The head of households also continue inducing their children to the practice of right manner of disposing wastes. It was found out also that most of the households practice garbage segregation but they should still be responsible in the proper disposal of the segregated garbage's. This is not a knotty matter if only people would make the initiative act.

It was highly further recommended that this kind of research should be done also by some other Barangay in any other Municipality for the know-how, satisfaction cleanliness and progress of all.

CONCLUSION
It was therefore concluded, that proper waste management has become ambiguous; which are the act of just throwing waste in a garbage can or any garbage place, and the other one is the manner of disposing, monitoring, collecting, transporting, managing and processing garbage in any appropriate way. It was ergo concluded, that waste management can be done by such ways like proper segregation whether it is Biodegradable or Non-biodegradable and recyclable. The right manner of practicing waste disposal render possible effects; we, as a human, would be vested with a safe and healthy life and a wonderful community free from perilous diseases and illness; the community itself for having an eco-friendly environment and satisfied residents. The animals with tier existence would feel really at home in an environment plenty and fresh air; and also the most important beneficiary, the next generation for the assurance of having safe, clean and green environment, as an addition would taste the real essence of existence; living in an environment free from danger of early death (because of disease), cause of pollution in the coming years as what theyre longing for.

It was also concluded that making our own simple ways showing the proper manner of waste disposal would give invaluable change for the whole, every single persons simple moves about the matter are the most accounted for a stunning community. It was further concluded that cleaning are own house is a highly recommended way to make every society cleaner, for the reason that cleanliness should start from yourself, from your own home, it would reflect who you are and your Barangay. It was determined and further concluded that every community has the potential to acquire a healthy and clean environment as well as its residents, every Barangay is considered eco-friendly, if it has what it takes to be safe and green environment, discipline people are those who are responsible especially in their communitys cleanliness.

A further conclusion should be bear, that Global community development as well as its cleanliness always starts in the smallest unit of society (household) with their weapon of Proper Waste Management.
