Ecleos Castle?

This castle is located at the boundary between San Jose and Dinagat at the top of the mountain and accessible from San Jose.. I took this picture during our dinagat surigao tour with my relatives..

IMO, hindi masamang mag tayo ng sariling religion or whatever basta related sa ITAAS as long as maganda ang pakikitungo sa kapwa. But ndi natin ma sisi ang tao kung ganun nalang ang maiisip... like for eg. yumayaman ng husto ang mga ganyang tao dahil sa donations ng mga mananampalataya. Isa sa mga Auntie ko ang pinalad sa hindi magandang pag sali sa mga ganyang practices. Miyembro ang auntie ko sa organization ni ecleo at ayun nahihirapan ng ibalik ung yaman ng auntie ko dati dahil lang sa donate ng donate don sa kanila. Hindi masamang mag donate pero ang hirap ng ganung sitwasyon. Kaya sa mga taong matino ang pag iisip sana maging matino rin sa pagpili at sa mga desisyon sa buhay..hehehehe Wag basta basta paloloko...hehehe

RE: Holy Land, San Jose, Province of Dinagat Islands. You can actually go on a sightseeing tour there, just make arrangements with their tourism office.

All those landscaping, buildings and other structures were buil by free voluntary labor of the members of PBMA. "pahina" ila tawag. I had occasion to go there while it was still under construction, and the scene reminded of the slaves of Egypt while building the pyramids.:ohno:

I like the first one, mostly kasi sa mga seaports ay nasa urban area at magulong tingnan.:ohno:

yes, ports in urban areas are somewhat congested and unroganized, but it is very convenient specially for passengers within the city proper. Whereas, those ports located outside the urban areas, like the the one in Lipata, is not so convenient to passengers with lots of baggage, because they still have to travel a few kilometers just to reach the city proper. I dont know if public transportation from lipata to the city proper is a problem?

Guys, apil man diay ang bonok-bonok sa kahimunan.

Yes Reg, I just learned about it today. An champion sa bonok bonok 2008 represented Surigao City sa Kahimunan, pupils of Surigao West Central Elementary School. Nakadaog man daw. its the 2nd or 3rd straight victory of Surigao in Butuan daw.

The City has opted to participate in Kahimunan because of the exorbitant cost of participating in Sinulog considering the Bonok bonok foundation is a big failure. Magsalig ra sa LGU for financial assistance, on their own di makatindog.:bash:

@Mike nice pix.

Hi, eagle1974. SEPTEMBER 20's is the best for me kay siargao is hosting the international surfing cup because of bigger waves and summer sa US. Mas nindot an beach ani na time.MAs bibo kay haghang tourists local and foreign with lots of nightlife events..

Good that the planes were able to land despite the bad weather condition. Lat December 23, I boarded PAL express (2nd flight) to Surigao. We were already in the vicinity of Surigao City at aroud 6PM when the pilot announced that the plane will be diverted back to Manila because it could not land due to zero visibility brought about by a heavy downpour. The following day December 24), on a special flight (7AM), the plane finally was able to land. I took a video while the plane is approaching surigao city until it touches down the runway. Here's the link to that video.

A TRIBUTE TO THE PAST MAYOR OF SURIGAO

TAken from http://balatucan.wordpress.com/category/surigao-city/

GODING SERING, 83

Former Surigao City Mayor Salvador “Goding” Sering passed away last Saturday, December 27, 2008 due to cardiac arrest.

Mayor Goding was known as “The Builder” in Surigao City. He served as City Mayor for three terms until 1998. He was succeeded by his son, Roland Sering, who unfortunately died in an accident paving the way for the assumption of incumbent Mayor Alfonso Casurra.

Last May 2007 elections, the Serings make a comeback in politics through a son, Rico Salvador Sering who won as Vice Mayor. That victory though leave a sour note as it led to the separation of the Matugas-Sering alliance. Nitoy Matugas, Sering’s mayoral candidate accused the Sering camp of betrayal which resulted to the former’s defeat to Mayor Alfonso Casurra by a narrow margin.

Goding Sering could have played a major role in 2010 in Cocoy Sering’s candidacy for the city’s top post.

RP eyes alternative sources of fishes in Pacific Ocean
Economy
Written by Jennifer A. Ng / Reporter
Sunday, 04 January 2009 22:21


THE Philippines is planning to put up four fishing ports near the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the Pacific Ocean after Jakarta decided not to renew an agreement that grants fishing rights to Filipinos in Indonesia.

The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), an attached agency of the Department of Agriculture (DA), said the move is intended to encourage Filipino fishers to tap the Pacific Ocean EEZ.

“With the recent closure of Indonesian waters to our fishing vessels, we have to look for alternative fishing grounds, and the likely candidate would have to be the Pacific Ocean EEZ,” said BFAR director Malcolm Sarmiento.

The BusinessMirror tried to contact BFAR to find out why Jakarta decided not to renew the fishing agreement, but Sarmiento could not be reached by phone.

The fishing agreement for the 200-mile Indonesian EEZ in the Sulawesi Sea, which expired in 2006, had allowed Filipino fishers to harvest some 80,000 to 100,000 metric tons (MT) more tuna yearly.

The Philippines has been trying to renegotiate the agreement, but Sarmiento said earlier that the conditions laid down by Jakarta are proving to be “difficult” for the government.

Sarmiento said the Pacific EEZ could be a viable alternative. He noted that it is underutilized for three reasons: tuna and other tuna-like species are seasonal in the area, the design of Philippine fishing vessels are not suitable for operations in the Pacific, and there are no infrastructure facilities in the Eastern seaboard to serve Philippine operators who would decide to operate in the Pacific.

The fishing ports, BFAR said, will be constructed in Casiguran, Aurora; Infanta, Quezon; Tacloban City in Leyte; and Surigao City in Surigao del Norte.Sarmiento said these chosen sites for the four fishing ports share two common traits: their geographic location facing the Pacific Ocean and their proximity to existing airports.

The fishing ports will be patterned after the fishing port in Davao City which has piers, refrigeration facilities, ice plants and processing plants. These facilities in Davao City enable fishers to unload their catch, process them and export their products to local and foreign markets because of their nearness to airports.

Surigao City History
What is now the city proper of Surigao was formerly known as "Banahao", which contained a good port for ships called "Bilan-Bilan". Banahao was part of the old district of Caraga, which later on became the politico-military district of Surigao with Tandag (presently the capital of Surigao del Sur) as its capital. Caraga derives from the word Calagan which means "Land of the Brave" or "fierce people". The Italian adventurer Francisco Giovani Careri, who published a book of travel in the country, cited Francisco Combes, S.J. as a source in saying that Calagan is derived from the two Visayan words: kalag or calag which means soul or people and for land.

Surigao officially became the permanent residence of the Recollects on February 1, 1752 when all the canonical books were moved from Siargao to Surigao. The first canonical books bore the signature of Fr. Lucas de la Cruz. Previously, the place was just a "vista" of the parish in Caolo (Siargao). This date may be considered as Surigao's foundation day.

It was through Surigao Strait that the fleet of Ferdinand Magellan after a brief stay at the island of Homonhon, sailed into the Philippine Archipelago during the epic voyage of discovery and eventual circumnavigation of the world in 1521.

It was this body of water that the Battle of Surigao Strait was fought in World War II, from October 24-25, 1944 between United States, Filipino and Japanese fleets.

Surigao is named after the old province (district) of the same name (Surigao). There are many versions regarding the meaning of Surigao; how this was derived. Like Sulo, which means sulog or current. Surigao probably came from the Spanish Surgir, meaning swift water or current. With the division of Surigao into two provinces, Surigao del Sur and Surigao del Norte, the Municipality of Surigao became the capital of Surigao del Norte. It became a chartered city on August 31, 1970.

The City was severely affected by Hurricane Ike which hit the City in September 1984. This extract from The Times on 6 September 1984 reports on the aftermath:

While more than 300 people are now known to have died, Mr Salvador Sering, the deputy governor, believes 1,000 died in the provincial capital [Surigao City] alone. The city has run out of coffins and people are being buried in mass graves. Some 200 residents of the town of Mainit were reported to have drowned when a lake burst its banks. As the clearing up continues, cholera and typhoid vaccines have been flown to the devastated areas.

On September 10, 2007, the contingent from Bacuag, Surigao del Norte, was grand champion in the Bonok-Bonok Maradjaw Karadjaw Festival 2007 at the City Hall grounds in Surigao City. Bacuag defeated the other 6 contingents coming from Butuan City, Surigao del Norte National High School (SNNHS), Province of Misamis Oriental, Surigao City Pilot School (SCPS), Cabadbaran City and Municipality of Jabonga, by showcasing the Inuwak Festival, Bacuag's famous local festival. The contingent received P200,000 in cash and a trophy from the Bonok-Bonok Culture and Arts Association Inc., the organizer of the annual Bonok-Bonok festiva.

This news will probably affect the reopening of Nonoc Nickel mines:

BHP shuts Australian nickel mine 1/20/09

Mining companies have been hit hard by the global downturn
The world's biggest mining group, BHP Billiton, has said it will close its Ravensthorpe nickel mine in Australia due to poor profitability prospects.

In a statement, it also said it would cut production at its Mount Keith nickel mine, also in Australia.

In addition, the firm said it would cut some 6,000 jobs worldwide to cope with plummeting demand for its products.

The price of nickel, used mainly in the production of stainless steel, has dropped because of the global slowdown.

In Australia, 3,400 jobs will be lost, another 2,000 in Chile and 550 at the Pinto Valley copper mine in the US.

In the statement, BHP Billiton said it would immediately start "the safe ramp down and indefinite suspension of the Ravensthorpe Nickel Operation".

"In addition, the rate of mining at the Mount Keith operation will be reduced in order to preserve its economic viability."

However, the company said it would maintain nickel concentrate output.

"We fully understand the impact that today's announcement has on our employees, contractors and their families," Jimmy Wilson, BHP's stainless steel materials president, said.

"These decisions are never easy but are the consequence of our long held practice of continually reviewing all of our operations to ensure that they are competitive," he added.

The announced cuts - which represent 6% of BHP Billiton's global workforce - underscore a dramatic turnaround in the fortunes of mining companies as the global financial downturn is biting into the previously insatiable appetite for steel making, analysts say.

The price of nickel has dropped from some $51,000 (£36,700) per metric ton in May 2007 to about $11,550 (£8,300) per metric ton.

The historical institute should review their studies regarding the first hoisting of the Philippine flag. Our history has been in limbo since 1898 and now we are in limbo again with the first hoisting of the Philippine flag.

For now, let us not speculate further regarding that matter as it will only result to another senseless argument.

But, you know what guys, I don't believe that we had our independence in 1898. I believe that we truly had our independence when the Americans gave our independence after the World War 2. That's my opinion.

The historical institute should review their studies regarding the first hoisting of the Philippine flag. Our history has been in limbo since 1898 and now we are in limbo again with the first hoisting of the Philippine flag.

For now, let us not speculate further regarding that matter as it will only result to another senseless argument.

But, you know what guys, I don't believe that we had our independence in 1898. I believe that we truly had our independence when the Americans gave our independence after the World War 2. That's my opinion.

Let me just clarify that what was discussed here is the first hoisting of the Phil. flag in Mindanao only.

The senseless arguments are over actually, as I said earlier, the NHI has already validated that the event occurred in Surigao. In fairness to Butuan after the NHI came out with its final finding, they have ceased claiming and promoting the event already.

Thanks mike, nice pictures. Among the churches, I like the one in Del Carmen and Dapa. Kagana baja nan mga simbahan sa Siargao. I think the churches in Dapa & Gen. Luna are much older than the Cathedral, right? The Church in Brgy. Ipil is also beautiful and old, I hope someone can post a picture of that church here.

I'am also impressed with the interior of the Del Carmen Church. Do we have a church in Surigao that is similar in structure or design of the Malate Church.
