The Province of Apayao is one of the six provinces of the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR). It is located at the northwestern part of Luzon. It is bounded on the East and North by the Province of Cagayan, on the West by the Province of Ilocos Norte and Abra, on the South by the Province of Kalinga. (Figure 1 Regional Location)
 
==History of Apayao, Philippines==
Despite being one of the first areas reached by the Spaniards in the Cordilleras, Apayao, inhabited by the Isneg tribe, remained mostly beyond Spanish control until the late 19th century. The Dominican friars established a mission in the present-day town of Pudtol as early as 1610. In 1684, they made unsuccessful attempts to convert the locals and built a church in what is now Kabugao. The remnants of these early churches in Pudtol and Kabugao still stand as silent reminders of the unsuccessful Spanish occupation of Apayao.
 
In 1891, the Spanish authorities established the comandancias of Apayao and Cabugaoan, which covered the western and eastern parts of present-day Apayao. However, these comandancias did not exert complete control, and the Spanish government maintained only loose authority over the area.
 
On August 13, 1908, the Americans created the Mountain Province through the enactment of Act No. 1876. Apayao, along with Amburayan, Benguet, Bontoc, Ifugao, Kalinga, and Lepanto, became sub-provinces of this newly formed province. Prior to this, Apayao had been part of the Cagayan province.
 
During World War II, Japanese Imperial forces occupied Apayao starting in 1942, and the province remained under their control for three years. In 1945, Philippine Commonwealth Army troops, along with the military forces of the USAFIP-NL 11th and 66th Infantry Regiment supported by Cordilleran guerrillas, liberated Apayao from the Japanese occupation.
 
After almost six decades, on June 18, 1966, the vast Mountain Province was divided into four provinces under Republic Act No. 4695. The four provinces were Benguet, Bontoc (renamed Mountain Province), Kalinga-Apayao, and Ifugao. In 1972, Kalinga-Apayao, together with Ifugao, became part of the provinces comprising the Cagayan Valley region.
 
On July 15, 1987, the Cordillera Administrative Region was established, and Kalinga-Apayao became one of its provinces. Finally, on February 14, 1995, with the enactment of Republic Act No. 7878, Kalinga-Apayao was divided into two separate provinces.
 
The combined outlines of Apayao and Kalinga resemble a bust resembling the likeness of former President Ferdinand Marcos, known as the "Great Profile" during the Marcos Era, gazing towards his home province of Ilocos Norte, as described by the media.

and the Arts</font></b></p>
              <p align="JUSTIFY"><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000080">The Isnegs,
Ilocanos, and Itawits form the majority of the people living in the province of
Apayao.</font></p>
              <p align="JUSTIFY"><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000080">The Isnegs are
the indigenous people of the province and are interchangeably referred as
Apayaos. The term &quot;Isneg&quot; was derived from a combination of &quot;<i>is</i>&quot;
meaning &quot;recede&quot; and &quot;<i>uneg</i>&quot; meaning
 
&quot;interior&quot;. Thus, it means people who have gone into the interior. The
Ilocanos inhabit the river valleys and plains and most migrated into the region
in the last fifty years.</font></p>
              <p align="JUSTIFY"><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000080">Up until
recently, the Isnegs were slash and burn agriculturists. They have increasingly
abandoned the practice and have adopted intensive rice cultivation in stead. The
Isneg are noted basket and mat weavers and the womenfolk trade their products
for cloth, pots and materials from Ilocano traders.</font></p>
              <p align="JUSTIFY"><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000080">Isneg<b><i> </i></b>women
have been known to favor colorful garments for their traditional costumes, which
consist of both small and large wrap-around pieces of cloth called the <i>aken</i>.
The smaller piece is used as everyday wear, while the large one is reserved for
ceremonial occasions. They also wear the <i>badio</i><b>,</b> a short-waisted,
long-sleeved blouse, which is either plain or heavily embroidered. Menfolk, on
the other hand, are traditionally clothed in dark-colored (often plain blue)
G-string called <i>abag</i><b>,</b> which on special occasions is adorned with
an <i>iput</i> – a lavishly colored tail attached to the back end.</font></p>
 
              <p align="JUSTIFY"><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000080">Isneg oral
tradition is rich with folk riddles. Many of these structurally simple but
elegant two liners with a few syllables and rhymed at the end, present a riddle.
Some Isnegs possess skills in traditional and oral arts, such as the <i>magpayaw</i>
(shouters), the singers of the <i>oggayam,</i> and the debaters who joust with <i>anenas</i>
(oral poetry). There are others held in esteem as musicians such as those who
display prowess in playing the difficult <i>gorabil</i>, a bamboo violin.</font></p>

==Trade and Investments of the Apayao Province==
:source: www.oocities.org/lppsec/pp/apayao.htm
<p align="JUSTIFY"><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000080">Apayao's
development rests upon the foundation of its rich natural resources. Forests
cover around 66% of its total land area, and produce timber, rattan and bamboo.
About 19% of the province's land area is dedicated to agricultural production.
Palay, coffee, corn, root crops and vegetables are the primary crops, while
fruits such as citrus, bananas and pineapples are the main commercial crops. The
province also raises swine, carabao, cattle, goat, chicken and duck. There are
untapped deposits of gold and copper, phosphate, siliceous sand and shale. The
total employable work force is numbered at about 43,000.</font></p>
              <p align="JUSTIFY"><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000080">The provincial
capitol, [[Kabugao%2C_Apayao%2C_Philippines|Kabugao]], is accessible from Cagayan, Ilocos Norte and Kalinga via an
86-kilometer system of roads. The Municipal Telephone Project Office provides
international and domestic telephone services. Local power cooperatives
distribute power to nearly all the municipalities of the province and water is
supplied by communal water systems, deep wells and dug wells. The Land Bank of
the Philippines and a rural bank provide credit facilities within the province.</font></p>
              <p align="JUSTIFY"><font face="Arial" size="2" color="#000080">Apayao is
anchoring its economy on its resource base but needs investments in key areas
like communication, transportation, power generation, banking, and
infrastructure. Agriculture remains the province's main potential. Marketing
agricultural inputs, such as fertilizers, farm machinery, seeds and feeds offer
a profitable opportunity for investors. Agriculture related manufacturing, such
as food processing, can make use of the abundance of raw materials since the
province produces banana, squash, corn, peanuts, beans, fruits and vegetables.
Handicraft manufacture can also take advantage of the availability of forest and
mineral resources like <i>rattan, nito</i>, bamboo, wood, marble and gemstones.
The mineral resources of the province are also open to small and medium scale
mining operations. The province's rivers can also be tapped for bottled water
operations since most are classified as A-1 in purity. Apayao's tourism
potential is hardly explored but given the natural beauty of the province, as
well as the unique culture and heritage of the people, Apayao can cash in on
eco-tourism ventures, adventure sports promotions and cultural tourism.
Developing the nascent tourism industry in Apayao will need investments in
hotels, restaurants, and tourist support services.</font></p>
