Wars of ancient history were about possessions, territory, power, control, family, betrayal, lover's quarrel, politics and sometimes religion.

But we are in the Modern era and supposedly more educated and enlightened .

Think about this. Don't just brush off these questions.

  • Why is RELIGION still involved in WARS? Isn't religion supposed to be about PEACE?
  • Ask yourself; What religion always campaign to have its religious laws be accepted as government laws, always involved in wars and consistently causing WARS, yet insists that it's a religion of peace?

WHY??

There are only two kinds of people who teach tolerance:
  1. The Bullies. They want you to tolerate them so they can continue to maliciously deprive you. Do not believe these bullies teaching tolerance, saying that it’s the path to prevent hatred and prejudice.
  2. The victims who are waiting for the right moment to retaliate. They can’t win yet, so they tolerate.

History of Pangasinan, Philippines

article from:www.nscb.gov.ph

Created in 1850 by Governor General Ronquillo de Penalosa, Pangasinan was the earliest political and administrative unit in the Philippines. It was officially conquered and colonized by D. Martin de Goiti in 1571. At that time, its territorial jurisdiction included the present province of Zambales and parts of La Union and Tarlac. Lingayen was designated and remained up to the present the provincial capital.

By middle of the 19th century, the northern towns of Agoo to Bacnotan were separated from Pangasinan and became parts of the province of La Union.

In 1975, its territorial boundaries were further diminished when Panique and other municipalities south of it were affixed to Tarlac.

At present, the province is bounded in the North by Lingayen Gulf, La Union and Benguet, in the Northeast by Nueva Vizcaya, in the East by Nueva Ecija, Tarlac in the South and Zambales and the China Sea in the West. It is approximately 170 kilometers North of Manila and 59 kilometers Southwest of Baguio City.

Below is a history article from the LGU of Pangasinan:

Pangasinan was among the earliest political and administrative units in the Philippines. It was officially conquered and colonized by D. Martin de Goiti in 1571. On April 5, 1572, Pangasinan was made an encomienda by the Spanish royal crown to receive instruction on the Catholic Faith, which means that Pangasinan was organized under one leadership and has identity before the Spanish royal court.

Eight years later, in 1580, Pangasinan was organized into a political unit under an alkalde mayor who at that time has authority as head of the province or provincial government with judicial function indicating that Pangasinan has become a province. To commemorate the day when Pangasinan became an encomienda and the year it became a province, Pangasinan celebrates April 5, 1580 as the official founding day of the Province of Pangasinan. At that time, its territorial jurisdiction included the Province of Zambales and parts of La Union and Tarlac. By the middle of the 19th century however, the northern towns of Agoo to Bacnotan were separated from the province and became parts of La Union. The provincial territory was further diminished in 1875 with the annexation of Paniqui and other towns south of it to Tarlac.

Pangasinan, derived its name from the word "panag asinan", which means "where salt is made", owing to the rich and fine salt beds which were the prior source of livelihood of the province's coastal towns.

Tagalog is simply one of the many dialects of the Philippines. Keep your dialects but learn and be fluent and proficient in ENGLISH.

Natural Resources of Pangasinan, Philippines

Protect the environment

It is sad but true that as of the year 2012 the rivers of the Philippines continue to be the #1 Sewer Systems of the Philippines.

Protect & Save the Rivers. Do not let your sewer drain into the river. Your community can be the first to initiate this project.
Build your riverbank protection with a built-in gutter system. Reforest within Ten Years - Guaranteed!

Let us plant more trees in every barangay in the entire Philippines. It does not make any difference if the barangay is urban, partially urban or rural; we need more trees. Trees will prevent erosion, provide oxygen, prevent green house effect, and even a place of business for the shade tree mechanic.

The Philippines is a tropical country and practically anything will grow. The DENR has the planting trees project that goes on every year. Lots of picture taking for the media. Planting trees one by one is the "human" way of doing it. This individual planting of trees is good if done to "line" the roads and highways with trees or along fences or property divisions, or if you have a plantation.

To reforest the nation of the Philippines we have to plant trees the "mother nature" way. Sow the seeds during the rainy season. Go deep into "bald" forests and plant trees by sowing seeds. If there's not enough volunteers to do this, use the military helicopters to fly over the designated areas and sow the seeds.

Guaranteed within a few years, The Philippines will be lush again. >>Read More

We are using our rivers as our sewer system. If you ask a Filipino, "Are the Filipinos a clean people?" The answer is an automatic, "Yes!". However, the Filipinos are suffering from the same disease or attitude as most people do, and that is the "NIMBY" disease or "NIMBY" attitude. (NIMBY) Not In My Back Yard. So it is OK to dump my garbage and sewer there. Not mine! Someone else will take care of it.

This attitude is killing our rivers. Your great-grandparents, grandparents or parents were once proud to tell the stories of how they enjoyed swimming in the river behind your house or nearby. However, you can't say the same or tell the same stories to your kids or grand kids. Why? Because your generation is killing the river.

  • The Capitol Building - designed by eminent American architect Ralph Harrington Doane, the Pangasinan Provincial Capitol has seen much of the province's history unfold. The building was constructed from 1917-1918 during the term of Pangasinan's 7th Governor, Daniel Maramba (1916-1922). Its inaugural in February 1919 featured a Pangasinan exposition which focused the attention of the entire nation on the province, its agricultural and industrial products, its achievements and potentials. During this time, it was considered to be the most beautiful provincial building in the country, admired and copied by other provinces. Under the administration of Governor Amado T. Espino, Jr. (2007-present), the Capitol Building was further refurbished while all other provincial government buildings in the Capitol Complex underwent general facelift, renovation and restoration works. . The Capitol Building now houses the Offices of the Governor, the Vice-Governor and the Provincial Board Members, and several provincial government departments. These intensive rehabilitation projects, with the Capitol Building reclaiming its reputation to be the most beautiful Capitol in the country today, have transformed the Capitol Complex as an alternative tourist destination and the pride of Pangasinenses.
  • The Sison Auditorium - the edifice was constructed in 1926-1927 during the term of Teofilo Sison, the 8th Governor of Pangasinan who also served as Senator of the Republic of the Philippines from 1928-1932 and was thereafter appointed as Secretary of Interior and Labor, and as Secretary of Justice and National Defense, earning him a distinction as the first Pangasinense to become a cabinet member. The Sison Auditorium was originally built as part of the Pangasinan Academic High School, the first secondary school in the province (now better known as Pangasinan National High School). Popularly known as “Assembly Hall”, or the “Grand Provincial Auditorium”, or simply the “Aditorium”, it became the place of major social functions in the province. It also served at one time or another as a sports venue, as the Provincial Library, and as Office of the Vice-Governor and the Provincial Board. The Auditorium underwent general facelift, renovation and restoration works in 2008-2010 under the administration of Governor Amado T. Espino, Jr., with the vision to make it the Cultural Center of Pangasinan, to showcase the Pangasinense culture and artistry and the province’s rich culture of indigenous songs, dances and other artistic expressions.
  • The Colegio del Santissimo Rosario - erected along the Agno River in Lingayen in 1890 by the Dominicansas an exclusive school for girls, the Colegio del Santissimo Rosario had a dormitory for the ninas, a clausura for the madres and a chapel. It served as barracks of American soldiers for two (2) years during the Filipino-American war and was damaged from the bombings that came with the Lingayen Gulf Landings during World War II. In 1947, the Columban sisters opened the St. Columban's Academy at the Colegio, following Bishop Mariano Madriaga's offer to use it as school for children in Lingayen. The school, now named St. Columban's College, moved to its present location beside the Catholic church in 1954. When the Dominican sisters constructed another school in San Manuel town, they retrieved materials from the Colegio and used them for their new school building, thus leaving its ruins.
  • The Casa Real - constructed in the 1840s, the Casa Real was a royal house where the Alcalde Mayor resided and held office as the Governor and the Judge of the Court of First Instance. It became the station of the Spanish soldiers and their native recruits who helped fought the Katipuneros during the revolutionary war against the Spanish rule. At the end of that century when the Americans colonized the province, it was named Capitol and served as the Office of the Governor. After the Taft Commission organized Pangasinan as a civil province on February 16, 1901, Judge William Howard Taft and his commissioners went to Lingayen and were given a grand reception in Casa Real. In World War II, the building was used by the Japanese as office during their invasion of the country and was partly damaged by the American naval bombardment in 1945. This 1,728 sqm. - public edifice served at one time or the other as the office and residence of the Alcalde Mayor and the Gobernador Civil, the courts of the judiciary, public elementary school and government offices. It was declared a National Historical Landmark by the National Historical Institute in 2002.

Mayor says flooding no longer a huge problem in Sta. Barbara, Pangasinan

STA. BARBARA, Pangasinan, July 31 (PNA) -— Mayor Carlito Zaplan here said that flooding is no longer a huge problem in Sta. Barbara because of the continuous dredging and diking of the Sinocalan River.

Zaplan said this in his State of the Municipality Address (SOMA) on Wednesday where he enumerated what he has done from July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014.

“I feel that the greatest reward for doing is the opportunity to do more”, said Zaplan before some 2,000 residents.

He said flooding is no longer a big problem and is confined only among the lowest barangays of the town as a result of the continuous dredging of the Sinocalan River that drains into the town and the construction of dikes along its banks.

He said he already requested from the Department of Public Works and Highways for the repair and rehabilitation of dikes covering six barangays costing P120 million which were damaged during the onslaught of typhoon "Maring" last year and his request was already validated by the DPWH regional director officer-in-charge.

"If the request is granted, the flooding problem in 29 barangays will be finally solved," said Zaplan.

He said most of the other infrastructure projects completed by his administration are in public and elementary schools such as the concreting of pathways at Daniel Maramba National High School (DMNHS), West Central School, repair of school canteen of Maticmatic National High School, installation of galvanized iron sheets and concrete flooring of Balingue Elementary School gymnasium;

Expansion of stage roofing at East Central School, extension of the five-classroom building of Maningding Elementary School, construction of concrete flooring at Botao Elementary School, backfiling for the proposed site of three units of school building at DMNHS, repair of principal’s office at Dalongue Elementary School, repair of two classrooms of Tuliao Elementary School and repair of four classrooms at Sonquil Elementary School.

Aside from these, the municipal government used part of its calamity fund for the construction and extension of Multi-purpose gymnasium-evacuation center in Nilombot Elementary School (P1 million), Malanay Elementary School (P1 million), Banaoang National High School Phase II (P600,000) and Sonquil Elementary School Phase II (P600,000).

Zaplan said that “we have to help our schools because our children study there and the teachers on the other hand sacrifice a lot for the welfare of our children”. He also said that the gymnasiums are parts of the disaster preparedness plan of the town as these will serve as evacuation centers in case of floods. He attested the readiness of the town for disasters as the 15 barangays already have their respective evacuation centers. “The Regional Evacuation Center is on the way and as for our relief goods and rescue equipment, those are in the store house, ready to be used anytime when needed”. Meanwhile, the local chief executive vowed to call another public hearing in preparation for the budget of 2015 which will be deliberated by the Sangguniang Bayan in September. “We will once again ask our people especially the barangay officials for specific projects or concerns that they want to be included in the allocation of 2015”, said Zaplan. At the same time, he promised to give laptops to the 35 school heads in the town and to develop barangay Maningding where the new municipal hall is located. “Once developed, Maningding will be the new face of the town later," Zaplan said.
