The Philippines has been a "decentralized" form of government since 1991, contrary to what most Filipinos think. Ever since the creation of Republic Act 7160, each LGU is responsible for its own domain. Even the smallest LGU the barangay creates its own Budget. It is not dependent on handouts from the city, municipality or province. "IMPERIAL MANILA IS A MYTH!", it does not exist anymore. The Philippine budget formulation system is not centralized. "Budgetary planning has been DECENTRALIZED since 1991". It is the responsibility of each LGU to submit their budgetary needs for review. Failure to submit is the problem.

Sinunuc, Zamboanga City, Philippines

Location of Sinunuc, Zamboanga City

This barangay is located in the west coast of Zamboanga City and is about 9.4 kilometers from the City hall.

Sinunuc approximately has a total land area of 853 hectares.

History of Sinunuc, Zamboanga City

Story from the Sinunuc Barangay Office:

The word Sinunuc means "burned" in Tagalog. The story says that long ago, Sinunuc was once ruled by the hostile Moro of Jolo. There were also Christians in the vicinity. The moros occupied the "Bocana", the place at the mouth of the Sinunuc River. The Christians stayed in the interior where they cultivated extensive farms of corn and coconuts.

There was no peace during the early days. The Christians were either killed or kidnapped by the hostile tribes. The men were killed; the women were taken to the Datu to be his wives, while the children were sold as slaves to the Sultan of Jolo. As a result of these incidents, many lives were lost and ruined, property damaged and education in the barrio suffered much. No school was built to educate the youths.

But in 1896, some prominent folks in a Christian village constructed a schoolhouse in Pitogo. The response of the inhabitants was negative. The frightened Christians preferred to stay in the hills and mountainous areas because of the killings and kidnappings during those days. The school existed only for three months with ten pupils. The schoolhouse was burned and the Moros killed the teacher.

The barrio was still without a name and the Christians were not united despite of the unpleasant situation. Killing, kidnapping and arson became an everyday occurrence and terror reigned over the place.

One morning, while the Christians were celebrating their feast, the man shouted "The Moros are burning the Ermita (Chapel)!" and their homes along the sea coast. As there were only a few of them, they fled to the hills to save their lives.

The women cried and prayed and even the men raised their eyes to God for help as they saw their homes and farms burst into flames.

In the midst of the said destruction, a man called Mang Kikong shouted in Tagalog, "Ay Diyos ko, sinunug ang ating tahanan!" When the bandits left the barrio, the Christians returned to their place. They called for a meeting to rehabilitate the ruined barrio, and the Moros never returned after that.

May 18, 1900 was memorable for on this day, the first Thanksgiving Mass was celebrated with the blessed Lady of Peace and Good Voyage. The barrio became officially known as "Sinunuc" to remind them of those grim strife filled days.

Note: Many thanks to the writer of this brief history of Sinunuc.
