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.

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 Tulungatung, Zamboanga City

The real history of Tulungatung is gone with time. At present our only bridge to its antiquity is our elders. There were no written records whatsoever on our table that tell us about the past of our place. Our folks claim that they too, opened their eyes the place is made and is called its present name.

The name Tulungatung is a mystery to us. There are many guesses that suggest how our place got its name. However, none of those ideas were considered seriously. There were times in the past, administrations attempted to resolve our blank originality by offering some benefits or rewards to whoever can write a story about our origin, even though it is fictitious. But no one came up with such an attempt. Maybe during that time, the educational level of our constituents is the main factor that we have to consider why there was no such attempt.

Until one man of this present generation, originally from the place, got the nerve to write a story about how the place obtained its name.

The present members of the Barangay Council are showing interest on that short story on how our place took its name. Although all of them are aware that that story is fictitious, but there is no other choice. Some of them are even showing appreciative thoughts that such story already exists. The story although still on its final stage, the council is already considering it through.

The story on how our place got its name is entitled “Mang Atong”. This was written by a former member of the Barangay Council whose term of office was 1997-2002.

The summary of the story follows:

Long before the Spaniards came to our archipelago, some of the neighboring countries had already set foot in our land. The Chinese in particular have great influence.

One of the instrumental characters named Khua was one of the Chinese traders who set in foot in Manila (Maynilad then). He was on his early teens when he met Atong, a native who was mute then and was a beggar. Khua, who cannot speak the native tongue, and Atong, a mute, made a good team. They spent most of the time together.

One day, the uncle of Khua left him behind in Manila to watch the leftover trading goods while he went back to China to get some more for their business. Unfortunately his uncle met a tragedy on his way back that cost his life.

Khua and Atong reset their way of life by going to the countryside where they met a former Chinese trader named Chaw. Chaw is a family man had two sons and a native wife. He also owns a few acres of land which he obtained by trading goods from China to the parents of his wife.

The two stayed with Chaw for about a decade. They learned to till the land, planted several fruit trees and took care of domestic animals. One day, a group of Chinese merchants arrived in Manila. One of them was a wealthy man named Wang. He owns five ships with several crew and his ships were heavily loaded with goods that were not meant for trading. His group was heading for a new place to settle, and their intention was south of the archipelago.

Khua learned about their adventure and decided to go with them. He immediately informed Chaw about this idea and that he and Atong would like go with the group of Wang. Chaw on the other hand realized their ambitions and let the two go with the group of Wang.

On the first few days of their journey, they had smooth sailing ways. Wang told them that they will settle to a land upon their supplies last.

Few more days to go, out there in the sea, they saw thunderstorm ahead of them. Wang gave orders to his men to sail westward to avoid the storm. However, the storm was heading to their direction and they were caught flat footed. The storm destroyed all their ships and killed everyone on it except Khua, Wang and Atong. Wang later passed away because of head injury. Khua and Atong separately managed to hang among the wreckage. They survived and made it to the shore.

Khua was half-dead when found by the natives. He was treated well until he got cured. He went back to the place where he was found on the shore and named it “Dumagsa”, after the native word “dagsa”- meaning landing ground.

Atong on the other hand, just few kilometers away from where Khua was found, made it safely to the shore. He wandered through the bushes to get fruits to eat. He left behind his sling and the clay water jar on the shore-(the water jar, half-full, was the thing that saved his life when he was in the water, since he cannot swim). When Atong went back for it, he passed through a place where the natives were conducting some kind of ritual. He observed them from a distance and noticed some kind of sacrifices that he cannot conceive that gave him the impression that the natives were cannibals. Actually, the ritual is a kind that the natives do and believe to drive away evil spirits. With this impression of cannibalism in mind, Atong was afraid to show himself to the natives. He wandered through the hilly bushes and never showed himself to the inhabitants of the place.

After months of living alone on that place, Atong only ate all types of fresh fruits he could find on the forest. He never ate food that was cooked for fear that he will be noticed by the inhabitants. With these changes in his life, he noticed that he can already make some sounds. His vocal chord must have been working. He practiced and practiced hard to say something about himself to introduce himself to the natives; he knew that sometime in the future, he will be revealed to them.

One day, he saw native kids riding carabao fully loaded with toboggan. As it passed a rocky trail the toboggan got trapped between two large boulders. The kids were helpless since the rocks were too heavy for them to move. Atong thought that this could be the opportunity for him to show himself and help them make an impression that he is friendly. Instead, when he did, the kids ran away with fear as they saw him.

Atong ha0s grown very masculine with curly hair, heavily bearded and very dark. The kids thought him as a monster. They told their folks bad things about him maybe because of his physical appearance that doesn’t say much of a good individual.

When the native warriors went and checked the place, Atong was gone and they saw the boulders were moved for a wider road. They were surprised to see that the stones that were displaced were too heavy that all of them together cannot move even an inch.

Many close encounters of Atong and the natives brought worse images of him even though he left traces of good and help in those encounters.

In due time, Atong was being hunted. The warriors trailed him to the bushes and got him surrounded. When Atong was cornered, he uprooted an arm-size guava tree and threw at them.

Although those acts didn’t hurt anyone, the warriors run away frightened and never came back. One day, an old woman, a respected figure of the tribe called a meeting of the elders. They discussed all the encounters by the villagers to Atong. One by one they cited their individual experiences during their encounter with Atong. It seems none of those incidence brought bad fate to anyone of them. So the old woman decided that instead, they should make friends with the stranger.

The following morning, the elders headed by the old woman went to the place of Atong. They brought with them grains, meat, fruits and clothing, to offer him and make friends.

Atong was surprised upon seeing the crowd. He immediately realized that their coming is a friendly one. He faced towards them and waited for them to come closer. When they came face to face, the old woman made a gesture that those things they brought were for him. Then the woman introduced herself as Toyang Ale. She also made a sign that Atong understood she also expected that he will introduce himself in return.

Atong who never had a conversation nor say words before, aside from those words he was practicing, said to them “tulung atong” as he pressed his right palm against his chest. These words came out of his mouth since these are the words he was practicing to say in preparation for his offering of help to the natives. “Tulung” is a Tagalog word meaning help.

The natives nodded that they heard his name clearly. The crowds gathered around Atong and with sign languages invited him to the village. Atong could not refuse their invitation, went with them to the village.

At the village, the elders offer feast to the stranger. They were talking in sign languages like crazy, that neither Atong nor them understood each other. Atong realized that these people are friendly. From then on, he lived and worked with them. He taught them Chinese farming techniques which he learned from Chaw in Manila. He taught them how to plow the rice fields and plant vegetables during summer. At first, he was the one pulling the plow which he made out of hard wood. He then trained their carabaos to pull the plow.

The news of “tulung atong” spread far and wide. The other tribes came to see him and simulate his farming techniques. To them this stranger was a blessing that his teaching helped them so much that they no longer run out of supply the whole year round.

Khua also heard about “tulung atong”, a stranger on the neighboring village. He went there to see this stranger. At first glance, he didn’t recognize Atong, he had changed a lot. This man was five times bigger than Atong before when they were together, and this man can talk.

Atong didn’t notice Khua’s presence. He was busy working. However when Khua was about to leave, Atong noticed a person with white complexion among the crowd. He went nearer and recognized Khua. He shouted and ran towards him. They were so happy that they met again.

Atong and Khua lived together on that village. They never let the inhabitants down. The humanitarian services of Atong to the people continued until he died. The immediate generation of that village started to call their place Tulung Atong. And in due time, during the transition period from illiterate to literate, the word was written TULUNGATUNG.

Barangay's power and authority: A must read for all barangay officials

Gavel.jpg

This is the "Barangay Code of the Philippines".

Barangay anim 4500.gif
A Barangay Clearance is NEEDED in order to get a Business License.
So why is the barangay name not in most business addresses?
Ask your Barangay Captain/Chairman to create a Resolution to make it mandatory to put the barangay name in all Business addresses.
Every Government Unit in the Philippines is within a Barangay. The municipal hall, city hall, the provincial capitol building, and even the Malacañang Palace where the president resides is within a Barangay.

The barangay has power and authority over its domain. The improvement of the barangay rests on the barangay officials. The barangay chairman, the barangay council and the local businessmen forge the prosperity of the barangay. Not the president of the Philippines, senate, nor congress. Not the governor of the province, not the mayor nor council of the municipality or city. Poor barangays stay poor because of weak and/or ignorant(uninformed) barangay leaders.

When roads or any infrastructure need to be built, improved or repaired, all the barangay officials have to do is make a resolution and present it to the city or municipality council. The resolution will force the city/municipal council or responsible government office to hear the legitimate demands. "The squeaky wheel gets the grease."

Each city or municipality is represented by the "barangay association or federation". The elected president of the Association of Barangay Council and the President of Kabataan (SK) association each have a seat in the City/Municipality council. Their powers are the same and equal to the elected city/municipality councilors. They are there to help lobby the demands of the barangays. They are not there just to collect a big salary and rub elbows with the regular elected city/municipality council, but to also represent the needs of the barangays.
The duties of the barangay officials are specifically written in Chapter III(Punong Barangay) and Chapter IV (The Sangguniang Barangay). Read it..

Practically anything that has to do with the barangay, the barangay officials have a say on it and most likely the authority over it. The majority of the barangay officials are not aware of their duties and power. They depend on the city council or mayor. The elected barangay officials are afraid of the mayor and city/municipality's "Sangguniang Panlungsod". They are in fear of being ousted or removed from office. The truth is, the "Sangguniang Panlungsod" does not have the power to remove or suspend any elected barangay officials from office. Only the COURT OF LAW can do this (judicial branch of the government). Elected public officials can't be suspended by the DILG or the office of the president unless an official complaint has been filed, there must be proof and there must be due process. Republic Act 7160 chapter 4, Section 60. Information is power. Be informed. Do not be intimidated by the president, senator, congressman, governor, mayor, vice-mayor, or councilors. Do your job.

The control of traffic is not up to the city council or chief of police. It is controlled by the barangay. If the barangay needs traffic enforcers, the barangay can make a resolution to demand it from the city or municipality council. When the electric coop or the water district do not maintain their lines, the barangay can directly demand for the maintenance from the utility companies. No need to wait for city council.

The citizens also has the power to make demands to the barangay officials. In case the officials get blinded. Simply file an official complaint with the barangay secretary naming the Punong barangay as the respondent representing the barangay.

If the power lines are sagging, don't go to the power company, go to the barangay office. Ask the barangay for a DEMAND resolution against the power company.
If the water lines are busted, don't wait for the water company, go to the barangay office. Ask the barangay for a DEMAND resolution against the water company.
If the potholes in the road are not fixed, don't wait for the The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH), go to the barangay office. Ask the barangay for a DEMAND resolution against the DPWH.
Are you beginning to get the point?

Cleaning the shorelines, drainage systems, streets, rivers, and parks within your barangay is YOUR responsibility. You are accountable for this. It is not the responsibility of the City/Municipality officials. The citizens and officials of the barangay are responsible. Stop blaming others.

  • BUDGET: As far as the preparation for the budget expenditures, it starts at the barangay level, then moves on to cities, municipalities, provinces and regions. The barangays need to exercise their authority. They need to put their yearly budget together for their administration and future projects. The majority of the barangays leave this job to the municipality and city. This is so wrong. Then when the budget doesn't come or is lacking, they complain.
  • The budget for the barangays does go to the City or Municipality, but simply for holding and later distribution. The city or municipality DOES NOT approve the budget. It was already approved by congress. The city or municipality simply "distributes" the approved budget.
  • The bureau of internal revenue is in cahoots to subdue the barangays, municipalities and provinces. They call the rightful shares to the taxes collected as "Internal Revenue Allotment Dependency". It is not a dependency. It is the lawful and rightful share of the LGU as specified in "TITLE III, SHARES OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNITS IN THE PROCEEDS OF NATIONAL TAXES, CHAPTER I, Allotment of Internal Revenue Taxes, Section 284."
  • "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.
  • DURING ELECTIONS: Where do City and Municipality politicians go to campaign? They seek the support of the Barangay officials. They plead to the barangay folks for the votes. Even the candidate for president. But after the election they ignore you. Do not ever forget the power of the barangay.

Ignorance keeps the pinoys thinking that Manila rules. Be informed, be educated and make your barangay prosper.

  • Absolutely NO need for FEDERALISM. It is a ploy to give the Bangsamoro an Islamic State where the religion of Islam is financed by the Philippine government. Bangsamoro will be a HOMELAND not for all Filipinos but for only the Muslim Filipinos. It violates the constitution's "separation of church and state". Religion is always good for the people but it should never be embraced or financed by government. Tax exemption is not tantamount to financing. Every non-profit organization is tax-exempt.

Natural Resources of Tulungatung, Zamboanga City

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.

We have so much water in the Philippines and yet very little to drink.


Instead of relying too much on Diesel fuel and Coal to generate the majority of Philippine's Electrical energy Supply, we can concentrate more on renewable and sustainable source of energy such as: Hydro Power, Solar Power, and Wind Power and thermal energy conversion. We have too many black outs.
