as it is on these forum. i would not take serious consideration on the detail of words relayed by a journalist, you cannot be sure on typo errors.

the reality will tell you by the amount of investment poured in is approxinately the level of condence on between davao city and cdo by ayala corp



Then I wouldn't seriously consider either your very subjective rationale here. I just state the REALITY NOWADAYS in this Mindanao island. ^^

For the benefit of everyone, I'd like to say that there are certain aspects that every city here in Mindanao has its own share when it comes to being the most important. No need to prolong my statement here that again, Davao is the most important city in Southern Mindanao since it has market influence to the cities that I mentioned earlier, while CdeO is the most important city in Northern Mindanao since the city has market influence too to the cities I mentioned. DAVAO in PRESENT never gain the entire market of Mindanao since there is CdeO in the north. :cheers:

main office pewor have to be ther as most of major plants souce are in iligan city but all of the others are relative bec these are largely influenced by politics and does not speak of market and economic activitiy. unless i missed something, weather station is in davao and station for seismic monitoring

MinDA, Ombudsman, Central Bank, UP Mindanao, Development Academy of the Philippines, PBSP, commercial banks Minda HQ (AFAIK BPI, BDO, Citibank, UCPB, HSBC One Network, Metrobank), SM City to name a few are more indicative of what the City's influence is over the island and again this is not taking away anything from other Cities, in example CdeO as the HQ of power generation in the island and NorMin's anchor economy. This gap is not a big one like what we can observe in Luzon and Visayas and that's what makes Mindanao better as we can see a more equitable distribution of wealth.

lol ha? you're declaring something then you're basing in your personal source? well sorry afaik it's based on your opinion , nothing more and nothing less.

again "elementary my dear" in GDP 101, Bigger Population bigger Economy , it doesn't mean Zambo "surpassed" Davao because it's GDP increases, but between Zambo and CDO which are virtually the same population, what do you think? are you familiar of Ratio and Proportion?


How about Davao's generating income and allotment revenue compared to CdeO's generating income and allotment revenue when it comes to ratio and proportion too? You will really know that it's JUST because of Davao's population and land area, it gains the bigger pie when it comes to internal allotment revenue than CdeO. But generating income wise? Hmmm... You will find it hard to believe. Do you know how to compute? Show the stat first if you have and you will know the truth. :)

dont ask question that leads to your anwer you hope for is accurate. in mindanao, davao city has the greatest share of influence. can you say its cdo? ergo, davao is dominant


Again, this is your very subjective rationale. I don't need to elaborate your statement. The readers here in SSC are not dumb enough. @Fahd is one of the SSC forumers to know the PRESENT SITUATION in this island. I won't force you to agree with me. So don't push me or the rest here to agree with your very subjective rationale too. :cheers:

this qoute just show us that you can't substantiate your claim, it's a sign of shallowness.

in my end i don't require , the burden of proof lies on you, afaik Davao is the most important city in Mindanao.

Okay that's your VERY SUBJECTIVE rationale too just like your die-hard comrades. 70's-mid 2000 promotion about Davao, I'm sure to agree. But nowadays, there are already two great Mindanaon cities. Well, I respect your statement. :cheers:

Then let it be. But let me emphasize again. THE REALITY nowadays will tell us that there are already two great cities having their own respective markets in this island. :)

what reality you pushing in to believe. perception. objective answer - ncsb figure will tell you disparity of vital stats between davao and cdo city

income generation. subract the ira share of you income and cdo will be wiped off the billion mark list. not with davao cty


Common sense will tell you that CdeO is dwarfed by Davao's population and size of land area. So Davao has the biggest share when it comes to internal allotment revenue. If I'm right here that Davao even has the bigger share than Cebu City when it comes to internal revenue allotment. But I'm not bothered if CdeO will be wiped off the billion mark list. But how about generating income in ratio and proportion? You will surely know the truth that CdeO's generating income is quite big for its size and smaller population. Then compare the city's generating income to your city's generating income since I know this is your style that you love to compare. LOL :)

It's your burden anymore to seek for that info. :)


Anyway, cheers to our cities for having their own respective market influence. This is the REALITY nowadays. :cheers:

davao city and the northern mindanao region more like it

Good discussions guys. At least no more personal attacks. I suggests that each would present FACTS. Lay down the cards kung baga.

Sus ka trivial oi, simple ra man..ang proposition is kay Davao City is the most important city in Mindanao..dili man ginasulti nga is the only important city in Mindanao. Overall DAvao man jud, ngano pugson man ug i ratio and proportion, dili man ang gi storyahan kay pound per pound most important city in Mindanao :lol:

So pangutan-on tamo kung dili Davao unsa man diay?

davao city and the northern mindanao region more like it

why not specifically cagayan de oro city?

is the city not in the same league as davao city?

if my understanding is right, many things that davao can offer, cdo can now offer too. if im near cdo and i want to shop, why would i go all the way to the south when cdo has the same malls and shops that davao has?

mindanao is still big enough for two cities to dominate...

enjoy! :cheers:

No question about it :cheers: dili lang kay 2 but IMO 4 cities jud (ayaw pud intawon ninyo kalimti ang Zambo and GenSan)

But of the 4, which is most dominant economically? Simple ra man kaayo na isyu ba, mu base ra gud ta sa kamatooran ug dili ipa cloud ang atong judgement based sa atong mga biases

again, the whole mindanao market is big enough for 2 (or 4 cities) to dominate. each has its own market. (unless mudako ang sprawl sa cdo and davao na magtupad na cla, kana competition jud! :lol:)

And so is the resistance to the claim :cheers:

Mao gani back to basics lang ta ug wala nay pa char char pa,

very right! Look what happened to Manila. We wouldn't want to see a deja'vu scenario in one city in Mindanao like what Manila is experiencing. Better to spread/distribute all the services throughout the island of Mindanao. Each city in Mindanao has what it takes to offer. It's rightfully better to improve these and the entire Mindanao island willingly takes them! :)

Sad to say, many people here can't accept the PRESENT situation that the island is no longer dominated by one city that is Davao. Trying to push hard by lingering again on their very old promotion and want to claim that Davao is the most important city (which is so good for the sake of promotion and wants to remain the crown) when in fact many cities are contributing in this island. CdeO alone in the north has gained the market influence, which is at par with Davao's market pie, if not bigger than Davao's market influence.


When you speak about Mindanao nowadays, you can't really determine which is the center of economy or the most important city like Manila in Luzon and Cebu in Visayas since Davao is no longer the sole city of everything. There is CdeO which is very accessible to many cities in this island. To say that Davao nowadays is still the MOST IMPORTANT is nothing, but a very subjective statement or reason.


Are these kind of people have an imperialistic mentality and attitude like typical Manileno because for decades they enjoy the status of being the premier city in this island and since Davao's land area is big and so is the population, but VERY opposite to what is today? ^^


Hala! Padayon sa inyong garbong agila! :cheers:

mao na ang naka maau sa mindanao kay wala ga focus sa isa lng ka lugar.:)

I hope nga someday, naay mga issue diri nga instead lalisan, magtinabangay unsaon pag build -up ug better Mindanao. Sayang ang ka-bright sa mga forumers kung di magamit ug sakto.



And we can start by breaking barriers brought about by regional pride :okay: example would be by accepting facts kung mao jud ang tinood instead of resisting kay sakit sa garbo.. For example, if someone says nga Zamboanga is the most historically important city sa Mindanao, mu agree ko tungod sa ka rich sa history sa Zamboanga. Dili ko mu kontra and say ah but daghan pud history ang Davao since nahimo syang little tokyo tung panahon sa hapon kay I accept nga maskin naay rich history ang Davao, if ang city na pinaka rich in history sa Mindanao ang storyahan, Zamboanga ang pinaka

Question: What makes Davao the MOST important anyway? Again, is it like Cebu and Manila which is the center of everything in their respective regions? :)


Does Davao now gain the entire market of Mindanao like Cebu and Manila; that's why Davao is the MOST important?


Or just an another VERY SUBJECTIVE rationale, which is opposite to the PRESENT REALITY or PRESENT TREND, sticking to the very old 70's to mid 2000 promotion out of pride like the flight of an eagle? ^^

no city have gained the entire markets of Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao...not Manila, not Cebu, not Davao. That statement is far too ignorant, I'm sorry.

And the claim that Davao is most important city in Mindanao is not only subjective, but objective definitely. Check where Davao belongs in studies from reputable institutions. Davao was even named most competitive city a few years back, and placed in a higher category than CdO. In fact, Davao and Cebu are the only two cities in that category.

Don't get me wrong, to say that Davao is most important city in Mindanao is no way a knock at your City. It is just what it is, deal with it.

You want an objective discussion? I propose we lay down all the cards to answer the proposition in an objective manner..wala lay initay ug ulo and wala lay personalan..lets keep it the discussion CIVIL and OBJECTiVE.

Which city has most financial institutions? better infrastructure? stats? numbers? basta objective discussion lang to end the debate once and for all, Im sure if we keep the discussion civil wala naman problema

the question on which is the most important city is subjective. to someone from normin, davao might not be important because to him, what cdo can provide is more important than any city far far away. to someone in iloilo, cebu may not be as important to him as his city.

that's why i said the question can be answered by saying all cities (2 or four in particular) are important to the island and the question is irrelevant because subjectivity and pride always get in the way.

but ask me what city has the biggest economy in mindanao island and i can give you a straight, factual answer.

davao city is the most important city of mindanao and 3rd in the country, followed by cagayan de oro city. the end.

Its not subjective at all, the example you are giving is from an individual standpoint (not you as the individual but more on from a smaller perspective) and yes when we look at it that way even Digos can be more important than Davao to a person living in Digos..

However, what we are talking about is the dominance of the city with respect to its overall (not just economically speaking) contribution to the island..

Take an international bank for example, why did HSBC decide to locate to Davao instead of elsewhere in the island? What does the huge central bank regional complex in Davao say about the city's position as the financial center of the island? Or the airport, why is DIA's terminal the biggest in the island? tourism? size of airplane riding market?Why, even is its newer by almost 10 years, Laguindingan is smaller? Why is UP's main campus in Mindanao located in Davao? This is looking at importance from a wider point of view. These are big ticket questions that are bigger than trivial bragging rights like having the most number of JOllibees, fist Mcdonalds etc

When you speak about Mindanao nowadays, you can't really determine which is the center of economy or the most important city like Manila in Luzon and Cebu in Visayas since Davao is no longer the sole city of everything. There is CdeO which is very accessible to many cities in this island. To say that Davao nowadays is still the MOST IMPORTANT is nothing, but a very subjective statement or reason.


Are these kind of people have an imperialistic mentality and attitude like typical Manileno because for decades they enjoy the status of being the premier city in this island and since Davao's land area is big and so is the population, but VERY opposite to what is today? ^^


Hala! Padayon sa inyong garbong agila! :cheers:
because you think your signature speaks the truth

What makes Cagayan de Oro now BOOM, BLOOM and BLOSSOM?


The Adventure Capital of the Philippines/
davao is a known destination if one wants to climb mt. apo., zipline adveture, wide range of facilities for aqua sports, botanic and wildlife parks, golf and more nature adventure, whiterwater rafting is also in the CITY.

[B/]Mindanao's Convention Capital/

Davao city is on top 5 destination in number of visitors in the philippines. no cdo on the top list

Mindanao's Main Transhipment Hub/Center of Land Transportation in Mindanao/

Davao has 750 bus trips daily. cdo? it pales in comparison to shipping activity in the davao sea port, it pales in cargo performance of davao internationl and passengers traffic is nearly double the volume of that in cdo

Mindanao's Industrial Hub/

not true. truth is the region is a host to industries. plants that are concentrated more in iligan city and other parts of the region. davao city is quiet not hyped which also hosts to a lot of like industries more on manufacturing.

The Melting Pot of Mindanao/

the evolution of davao style dialect is a true manifestation of melting pot. not the claim of people in cities with prevalence of pure strong accent

Mindanao's Fastest Growing Urban Center
Tagum city is charging forward it is the fastet if we go by your perception war. but davao city holds the statistics

/Mindanao's Biggest Recipient of Investments/
are you serious? ayala mall and ayala land? , sm malls and sm land, filinvest, sta lucia properties, dmc, landco properties, and major local investros. wheres the place of cdo there

The Capital of Mindanao's Most Dominant Regional Economy
cdo is thecapital of northern mindanao. its the main center of the region. thats all of it

Okay! Go on @Mtapo to your very subjective claims like my signatures. Funny ha. :)


As what I said you can't determine nowadays which city is the most important in this island. Is it Davao or CdeO? Well, all I can say again is that each city has its own market influence. Is it clear? Don't turn around the bush by your still very subjective claims. I can't force you if you still linger to your very old promotion just to remain the precious crown as the SOLE city of everything in this island which in fact nowadays there is already CdeO in the north. ^^

figures are telling me to lay those claims.

IMO the stigma of "imperialism" is not an issue in Mindanao, unlike in Luzon and Visayas esp when one notices the glaring imbalance of infrastructure in those areas compared to neighboring regions as well as their complaints. Most Mindanao cities however are progressing together and are given their fair share and in fact Davao had made moves supporting its neighboring cities in relation with the BIMP-EAGA masterplan, and it even came as a shock when some accused Davao (instigated by non-mindanaoans) without valid reason and turned out they didn't know any better. It's just a fact and practical reality that a certain city undeniably dominates because it was a choice by those gravitating towards making it as such, and only the disillusioned and in denial will contradict that Davao City is dominating in Mindanao.

It's just that some mindanaoans had unwittingly allowed themselves to be swayed by mere hype and false propaganda to hilariously pull down Davao to prove their point, lacking in discernment that it was perpetrated by some non-mindanaoans with seeming anti-Mindanao intent to cause divisiveness to the island's cities due to insecurity of what Mindanao cities, when given their full potential, can achieve.

;74315755']Its not subjective at all, the example you are giving is from an individual standpoint (not you as the individual but more on from a smaller perspective) and yes when we look at it that way even Digos can be more important than Davao to a person living in Digos..

However, what we are talking about is the dominance of the city with respect to its overall (not just economically speaking) contribution to the island..

Take an international bank for example, why did HSBC decide to locate to Davao instead of elsewhere in the island? What does the huge central bank regional complex in Davao say about the city's position as the financial center of the island? Or the airport, why is DIA's terminal the biggest in the island? tourism? size of airplane riding market?Why, even is its newer by almost 10 years, Laguindingan is smaller? Why is UP's main campus in Mindanao located in Davao? This is looking at importance from a wider point of view.


then let's be more specific. broad kaayo ang question. if you ask me, i don't know because i don't care about cities in mindanao because they are not important to me.

what is the financial center in mindanao? that's a question which you can get an objective answer. magoogle man ang facts and figures ana.

For me , the most important city in Mindanao is Iligan because it's where I live. :lol: This is a valid answer because the question is subjective.

It's really hard to rank cities in terms of importance if there is no specific standard.

Okay! Go on @Mtapo to your very subjective claims like my signatures. Funny ha. :)

Anyway, despite my serious query which is flippantly replied to only means one thing. Some people does not really want an above board discussion and i'm not going to wait for it either just like that "davawenyo-kuno" who promised to PM me his answer to my queries on why he keeps criticising or just for the sake of increasing his post count and to make him look cool...

I think we better move on to another topic.

From the discussion here one can glean that there are two schools of thought prevailing, one calls for objectivity and the other beats around the bush by hiding behind subjectivity..

thats all :)

Its unfortunate that to some, regional pride just gets in the way of recognition of the truth..:(

^^ I think this discussion just came to a stalemate. Let's just have it again when better minds collect.

;74315109']You want an objective discussion? I propose we lay down all the cards to answer the proposition in an objective manner..wala lay initay ug ulo and wala lay personalan..lets keep it the discussion CIVIL and OBJECTiVE.

Which city has most financial institutions? better infrastructure? stats? numbers? basta objective discussion lang to end the debate once and for all, Im sure if we keep the discussion civil wala naman problema



I'm not debating here in the first place. My intention is to show the REALITY nowadays or PRESENT situation if you speak about which city is the most dominant, premier, etc. in this island. I just answered @MC2X post because it seems that he couldn't swallow his eagle's pride.


And to answer your questions, you can't compare the two. It doesn't mean that Davao is the most important city because Davao has the most financial institutions than CdeO. Most of thus banks in Davao serve the people not only Dabawenyos but people of thus cities that I mentioned under the city's influence. While CdeO's banks serve not only the people of the city but also people of other cities under CdeO's market influence if they like to do so. And which city has better infrastructures? Well, let's say that even CdeO is catching up, this doesn't mean that Davao is still the most important. Are we Cagayanons or Butuanons and other Mindanaons directly benefited from your city's awesome infrastructures? It's you people of Davao who have benefited your infrastructures well. Even stats for e.g that Davao has the bigger pie of internal revenue allotment because of its size and population, which dwarf all cities in this island including CdeO, won't either tell the difference. Question such as how about when it comes to generating income of the two cities by using ratio and proportion? Which city has the bigger share when it comes to generating income? ^^


Now the real score nowadays again is that why will you insist and your die-hard comrades that Davao is still the most dominant in this island, most important or still premier when in fact Davao never gain the whole market of Mindanao? Do you get my point? On the other side, CdeO has the bigger market pie too in this island and in fact most of the investors nowadays no longer only choose Davao, but CdeO as well. Are you a keen observer of this REALITY that is happening nowadays in this island when it comes to investments and market influence? Unlike in the regions of Visayas and Luzon which is so pretty obvious that Manila and Cebu are the premier cities in their respective regions. Now can you tell that Davao is still the premier or most important when in fact the other big pie has been gained by CdeO in the north? ^^

i do know that mindanao cities are important to their respective regions and to mindanao as a whole. isn't that significant? :lol:

You are not debating but you are contesting, isn't that one and the same meaning with a different spelling?

You keep using the word REALITY but you don't seem to understand what it is just basing on your sig and the way you argue here.

PERCEPTION is the word. That's the only real thing here so far, your PERCEPTION.

Ahh but the question is, which sole city gets the biggest pie? nobody is denying that CdeO is progressing and that it has its significant contribution to the island..but the question is, which city has the most? got it?

Davao has never had solo dominance anyway, even before ka share na man niya ang Cdeo, Gensan and Zamboanga..mao dili man na ang question.The question is which has the biggest contribution? Sure Cdeo has its own share of big investments but kinsa ang pinaka? Mao ra man ang issue

Simple ra man kaayo why are you avoiding the question?

see? :lol:

10 can be claimed as the most valuable but not as the most important.

Unsa ba oi..... Davao City is the 3rd major city in the Philippines its no brainer. Davao has better infrastructure, bigger income and more popular than other cities in Mindanao.

@Way, bisag gamay or dako ug value, same ra ang importance mao nga dili angay lalisan.

importante ang tanang syudad sa Mindanao and each have their unique role to play, mao nga dili na angay lalisan, I agree with you

usahay non-mindanaoan man mag-instigate sa lalis making unfounded hype ang naka-apan padala pud dayon tong dali ra intawon mauto.

which is the most important city in mindanao?

UYYY... dili oy.. ang 5 centavos pinaka importante kay kung walay 5 centavos...walay 10.. 25, 50, 75, 1.00 etc. etc....:lol:

see its very subjective.....

maypag mag one heart na ta... naa kog puerto princesa karon and daghan kog na meet nga mga travellers from europe and they said mindanao is not a safe place to go... wala sila kaila og davao and cdo. ingon sa ilang embassy kay dont travel in mindanao. na shock ko kay diri sa puerto princesa daghan kaau sila... ga lakaw2 ra sa mga streets... maypag mao na atong i suggest sa atong DOT sa mindanao nga makig meet sila sa mga embassy... :bash: i feel sad nga wala sila kaila sa akong city...

According to this site...

http://www.cebu-philippines.net/philippine-cities.html

Davao City

The City of Davao is the largest city located on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines. It is also one of the most progressive Philippine cities. Its international airport and seaports are among the busiest cargo hubs in the southern part of the Philippines.

Davao City is also one of several cities in the Philippines that are independent of any province. The city serves as the regional center for Davao Region. It has a population of 1,363,330 (2007 census) and is named by the Foreign Direct Investment Magazine as the 10th "Asian City of the Future".In recent years, Davao City has emerged as the business, investment and tourism hub for the entire southern Philippines. The city boasts of some of the finest beaches and mountain resorts in the country and its proximity to the Philippines’ most captivating diving spots as well as its highest peak, Mount Apo. Davao City is the premier City and hub of Mindanao. It is a "Crown Jewel" of Mindanao in terms of economic activity. It is the most important economy on the island and the third most important urban center of Philippine cities


These are their perception.

But for me, everyone has their own realities and perception but it does not mean we all have the same realities.

As an example, some people have perception as far as this...

And for other people, their perception is as wide as this...

Both are real but still not the same.

Its sad how people try to complicate their answers just to avoid answering a simple question due to pride? :ohno:

i have talked to some tourists and they know camiguin and siargao but not davao!! sad but true...:ohno:

And yet Davao is among the top tourist destinations in the country :cheers: galing anoh? But yeah, a little more exposure would surely help

^^our local DOT should meet those embassies nga ga ingon og beware mindanao...

anyway, unsaon man pagkabalo ang number of tourists entering the city? is it based to # og flights and passengers that are coming in?

Murag dili tingali kay dako baya ang difference between passenger arrivals compared sa tourist arrivals nga number..My guess is sa hotel occupancy sa mga DOT accredited hotels :)

Actually nang travel advisory mas ok na gani karon kay mas specific na sya and usually exempted na ang safe places

http://www.sunstar.com.ph/davao/japan-canada-lifts-travel-ban-davao

DAVAO City is no longer included in the travel advisories issued by at least two embassies on its citizens planning to travel to Mindanao.

Travel advisories issued by Japan now explicitly say that while travel to Mindanao is still strictly discouraged, it recommends to visit the center.

In Mindanao, aside from Davao, the city of Cagayan de Oro is exempted by the Japanese Embassy from their travel advisory as well.

The Canadian Embassy, for its part, states that it "advises against all travel to the Autonomous Region for Muslim Mindanao, the Zamboanga Peninsula, Saranggani, Lanao del Norte, Davao del Sur, South Cotabato, North Cotabato, and Sultan Kudarat (excluding the urban areas of Davao City)."

Ayala to build new hotel in Davao
By Doris Dumlao
Philippine Daily Inquirer
First Posted 16:06:00 01/20/2011




MANILA, Philippines—Property giant Ayala Land Inc. is investing in a new 148-room boutique hotel in Davao City, a center of trade and industry in Mindanao, as part of its growing interest in Philippine tourism.

The new hotel—envisioned to "redefine the hospitality industry" in this booming metropolis by providing "cozy" and "stylish" setting when it opens in mid-2012— is a joint venture between ALI's subsidiary Ayala Hotels and Resorts Corp. and leading Mindanao business group Anflo Management and Investment Corp. (Anflocor).

The nine-story hotel project in Davao is the second in a series of hotel properties in key cities of the Philippines which will be operated by an Ayala Land subsidiary. It is part of ALI's 10-hectare mixed-use development Abreeza, which includes a mall, an office facility designed for business process outsourcing (BPO) firms and traditional offices and subsequently a residential tower.

^^ Wow! such trivialities gi research pa jud nimo :lol: in the name of pride nga naman :)

4. REGIONAL CENTER OF PHILIPPINE SOUTH
The City is host to regional centers and headquarters of government and private agencies whose scope of operational jurisdiction covers Southern Philippines or the island of Mindanao. This is the reason why many organizations consider the City as the de facto capital of Mindanao.

It is considered as the financial center of the Mindanao Island with more than 1,200 institutions classified as banks, non-bank financing, and lending agencies.

The City is also the center for learning, education, and trainings in Mindanao with 40 tertiary education institutions classified as universities (including the University of the Philippines-Mindanao), colleges, and technical schools that regularly supply the City of needed expertise and manpower.

Another one (davao lang ang na mention sa Mindanao)

http://www.expatforum.com/category/articles/cities



Kailangan pa bang i over analyze at dibdibin yan? :lol: besides, yung Queen City of the south eh title naman talaga ng Cebu..pwede ba wag masyadong mag analyze ng mga bagay na di masyado dapat inaanalyze :lol:



Hala another very old promotion. Panahon pa ba yan ni Mamfor? Bitaw as what I said never linger on the very old promotion because even a big investor such as Ayala proudly said that Davao is A..... I believe you are a keen observer. Have you observed personally that Davao no longer gain the ENTIRE market of this island and even most of the investments, unlike in Cebu and Manila, because there is CdeO, which has gained the half market pie if not more?


Sige @way, padayon sa imong imperialismong pangutok og attitude na STILL now, Davao is the only sole de facto capital or most important in Mindanao. Ipadayon ang very subjective na promotion for the sake of retaining the crown. :cheers:

DOST ADVISES THE PUBLIC NOT TO BELIEVE IN HOAX MESSAGES
by Science and Technology Information Institute (DOST) on Monday, March 14, 2011 at 4:20pm
Emergency Response Bulletin No. 2

Department of Science and Technology Secretary Mario Montejo said the public should not believe in rumors that the alleged nuclear meltdown at “Fukuyama”, or some other places in Japan, threatens to affect other places with radiation.
The advice that people should stay indoors and to wear raincoats if they go outdoors has no basis and did not come from DOST or the Nationl Risk Reduction Management Center.
DOST CLARIFIES THAT THERE IS NO IMMEDIATE DANGER OF NUCLEAR RADIATION IN THE PHILIPPINES<span>.</span>
DOST advises the public not to believe these rumors currently spreading through text messages, emails, the Internet, and other means of communication.
DOST also advises the public not to entertain these rumors and to stop forwarding said messages in order not to sow panic among the people.
DOST maintains a 24/7 link-up with the International Atomic Energy Agency, the highest authority on nuclear matters, for advice on the current situation of the Fukushima Daiichi plant. Available data do not indicate any immediate threats to the Philippines.
DOST is committed to bringing accurate, reliable, and timely information regarding the Fukushima event and its possible effects to the Philippines.
For more queries, pls. call DOST-PNRI Emergency Response Center at (632) 929- 4719 or 920-8738.

...for your INFO (http://tinyurl.com/4oye7vr)

^^wag kaagad maniwala sa di dapat paniwalaan...
kay basin ikaw ang nituo maoy atakihon sa kasingkasing
mas mauna pa matigbak...:bash:

Okay...THanks for the info:) More Progress Mindanao!

because there is CdeO, which has gained the half market pie if not more?
But your claim is equally, if not more, subjective anyway..Surely those earlier claims had their basis..How about yours? Any numbers to show?

Take financial institutions for example.

BSP's regional hq is in Davao,
for BDO, Davao =17 , CdeO = 9..
Metrobank Davao = 13 (including regional office) Cdeo = 7
BPI Davao = 16, Cdeo =8
CHinabank Davao = 7, CdeO = 4
Hotels? Davao remains the only city to have a 5 star hotel, and currently the only city to have an international hotel.
BPO? which city hosts the most number of BPO locators?

So what is your basis? I have given you part of my list and I could go on with the list if you want to..

;74319705']You say you dont care yet your past posts clearly reflect otherwise? :)

backtracking, perhaps.

;74320009']BSP in Mindanao :cheers:


Lagi kamo ang main PERO unya kay naa man banko nga branch sa Cdeo ang BSP, so pupunta pa ba ng Davao ang taga CdeO or taga Malaybalay and even Butuan para dun lang magdeposito? Or ang taga Zambo pupunta pa ba ng Davao para didto gyud magdeposit? :nuts:


As what I have said before, CdeO has main offices too both gov't and private, but this doesn't mean that CdeO is the most important or premier because Davao has main offices too.

Okay...THanks for the info:) More Progress Mindanao!

Im not denying that..and please include the cities of Zamboanga and Gensan too. The argument was which city was most dominant and I laid my case thru numbers (i.e. number of financial institutions)

Guys, better visit those cities mentioned para makita gyud personally ug unsay mga actual ug current nga panghitabo o development. Do not just rely on what is being reported or published kay kamo ray gaingon nga dagdag bawas ang mga information ana. Usahay karaan na nga stat, ginagamit pa guihapon kay tapulan mo-research.

davao city is the most important city of mindanao and 3rd in the country, followed by cagayan de oro city. the end.

I think after Davao, Zamboanga would be the next major city in Mindanao, hindi nga lang gaanong mahilig sa hype unlike the other that even their news articles seem so redundant in using hyped words to the point one can't help but question its credibility.

Zamboanga already have more established links with neighboring countries particularly Malaysia, Indonesia while CDO is into domestic. CDO's international container port is yet to prove itself because it registered negative figures recently. Zamboanga also has a larger population. It would be interesting to know how those cities really fared based on its income to attest what's really the next major Mindanaoan city (not region), although it also cannot be denied that CDO plays a major role in the north of the island.

Mindanao should work in harmony instead rather than allowing itself to be meddled up by those forumers who are outsiders from mindanao with seemingly ulterior anti-mindanao intent to cause divisiveness in its cities.

Anyway further reading on Regional performance according to PDIC

http://www.pdic.gov.ph/files/Regional%20Profile%20of%20Deposits_June%202010.pdf

Areas Outside NCR
For areas outside of NCR, Region 7
(Central Visayas) had the highest
average deposit size per banking unit
at P0.44 billion. Followed by CAR at
P0.38 billion, Region 11 (Davao) at
P0.37 billion, Region 6 (Western
Visayas) at P0.32 billion, and Region 8
(Eastern Visayas) at P0.30 billion.
Region 4-A which has the highest total
deposits outside of NCR is only eighth
with only P0.28 billion average
deposit per banking unit as it has the
highest number of banking units
among the regions at 1,187.

Which is exactly why Davao is the more dominant city..Alangan naman i ratio and proportion mo pa yan? Unless your objective is to compare against instead na comparison para lang malinawanagan sa issue..Ang population gani ang isa sa factors, syempre if gamay lang ang population sa Davao then less sab ang iyang influence..

Even if i ratio and proportion mo, how sure are we nga if ma half ang population sa Davao mu half pud ang numbers or if i double mo ang population sa CdeO mu double pud ang numbers?

Yah for the sake of info. But for the sake of info again, I think every forumer has the right to know the info regarding real score too. If they want the truth behind the stats, then I-per capita nila mismo if they like and see the real score. :cheers:

kaya nga
how come na mas madami kameng nakokolect na revenues, pero banks namin konti lang unlike sa inyo
it means mas great ang economic activity dito sa amin
^^

:lol::lol::lol::lol: jai back to zambo thread na tau baka maging mindanao war thread na to not na mindanao development if sasali pa tau^^

This is dependent on the number of banks in a region... More banks mean smaller deposit per unit... :-)

http://i52.tinypic.com/1zob2vd.jpg

seriously,ngano i insist man jud na per capita? :lol: like say if we compare metro manila with davao ignon ba nato nga "oi , i compare pud per capita oi"? :lol: The way I see it, ang pag per capita only serves the purpose sa mga competitive kaayo and dili lang jud papildi..unsaon ta man nga mao man ang numbers?

interesting, bakit kaya

could it be due to age-old culture as Zamboanga is a city rich in heritage? hindi kaya imbes na sa bangko magdeposit ng value of assets ang ibang Zamboangeno, they invest in gold instead?

just asking :dunno:

Wala naman kinalaman ang mga bangko dito in the first place. Get it? :)


IRA is a national government's distribution of wealth to the cities if I'm not mistaken. :)
^^
what ba talaga minimean mo?
yung nakokolect ng city o yung binibigay ng nation gov't sa city?

uhm... ok. :lol:

^^
yeah
tama
:okay:

talaga ha

naisip ko kasi our Muslim brethrens are often noted for their gold jewelries and crafts, then Zamboanga being a famous Spanish port during colonial era must have carried with them the tradition of their forefathers, and Zamboanga's history of trading with our other Asian neighors since olden times.

very interesting for Zamboanga :okay:

galing, pero hindi kayo nagpa-hype or make exaggerations or acting like mere sidekick to non-mindanaoan agenda and that's even worth appreciating more :cheers:

if such were the case then Zamboanga indeed is the next major city after Davao, with added rich heritage and civility :rock: :cheers1:

pcrp and AIM said cdo belongs to the group too



Don't feel the heartache at your age right now for CdeO simply kicks your pride well. Anyway, just read Ayala's lips again and again, don't linger to your very old promotion, and be a keen observer for you to know the REALITY nowadays that Davao is no longer the sole premier or the most important. ^^


Just my two cents for you crab mentality and imperialistic mentality and attitude! :cheers:

Mindanao provinces record highest employment rate
By Jun Pasaylo (philstar.com) Updated March 15, 2011 04:44 PM

MANILA, Philippines – The National Statistics Office (NSO) announced today that the country’s highest employment rates in January were recorded in Mindanao provinces.

Zamboanga Peninsula registered a 96.9 percent employment rate while South Cotabato, Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani and General Santos City were at 96.8 percent.

On the other hand, the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) was at 96.1 percent employment rate during the first month of 2011.

But overall, the number of Filipinos without jobs rose by 7.4 percent amid the record breaking economic growth last year, the NSO noted.

The NSO said the data translated to more than 2.9 million jobless Filipinos in January this year compared to last year’s 2.8 million.

The 7.3 percent economic growth last year, which is the highest in 34-years failed to generate more employment, the NSO added.

The National Capital Region (NCR) had the lowest employment rate at 88 percent.

Don't let emotions take over bai, this is only a disccussion. Wala may mapildi or mahutdan ug kwarta nato dire. Let's do it lang na walay personalan kay daghan maapil nga dili unta gusto mo apil, mo samok-samok nalang pud unya dire.

Natural lang man na. Don't take it so seriously here though.

P2.5-billion establishment to rise in Cagayan de Oro
Tuesday, March 15, 2011

MANILA -- Mindanao’s gateway city Cagayan de Oro will soon be home to a boutique hotel and posh shopping mall as AyalaLand Hotels and Resorts Corp. (AHRC) has jumpstarted the projects recently.


Set to be operational by 2012, the 150-room hotel is part of the 3.7-hectare mixed-use development area called Centrio.

The project is made feasible in partnership with the Floirendo-led Anflo Management and Investment Corp. (Anflocor), which has a stake in fruit export, real estate, hospitality and financing, among others.

AHRC said the shopping mall aims to address basic needs of the residents, as well as offering a fresh retail and entertainment concept for those who frequent the bustling city.


Initial investment is estimated at P2.5 billion for the mixed use land, which is expected to generate 10,000 jobs for Mindanao’s premiere economy.

“The hotel has been designed to offer a stylish and warm hotel experience. At the same time, it will provide easy and convenient access to restaurants, shops, cinemas and other retail outlets,” Ayala Land Inc. (ALI) vice president Al Legaspi said of the eight-storey boutique hotel.


Some of the amenities also include function and meeting rooms, an executive lounge, a business center, indoor and al fresco restaurant, a fitness gym and swimming pool. (Virgil Lopez/Sunnex)

Culture + Adventure = Mindanao (http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/309078/culture-adventure-mindanao)
By Jacky Lynne A. Oiga
March 13, 2011, 2:14am

Skim boarding in Dahican beach, Davao Oriental (photo by VINCE G. LOPEZ)
MANILA, Philippines – For what it’s worth, Mindanao probably has the most beautiful places in the Philippines – a beauty shrouded with so much discrimination and fear.

Blessed with rich-biodiversity, exotic wilderness, and rousing cultural heritage, Mindanao has all the makings of a world-class destination. But the long-standing travel advisories restricting foreign visitors to take so much of a peep to this island region has discouraged even some Filipinos to travel down south.

Recently, though, several tourism-related promotions have stirred up enough awareness to attract domestic tourists and foreign visitors to visit to some provinces of Mindanao. Culture and adventure are the vital pegs for the tourism pitch in the region and these aspects will be the Department of Tourism’s (DoT) main thrust to increase tourist traffic to the area.

With the country’s participation in the Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Philippines – East ASEAN Growth Area or BIMP-EAGA, DoT is optimistic to promote Mindanao not only for tourism, but also for tourism investments.

“DoT is currently seeking direct flights to Davao from its BIMP-EAGA neighbors and is eyeing Zamboanga for greater sea access from the aforementioned countries,” said DoT Undersecretary for Tourism Regulation, Coordination and Resource Generation, Ma. Victoria V. Jasmin.

The tourism department is also looking into agricultural tourism and ecotourism as supplementary products in Mindanao, particularly in Bukidnon. Known for its vast pineapple plantations, Bukidnon may also benefit from spill-over tourism form the MICE destinations of Cagayan de Oro and Davao.

Security issues, however, is still a big concern for tourism in any country. For this matter, Jasmin reiterated that except for a few isolated areas, peace and order in Mindanao is intact and ready for tourism.

On the other hand, the tourism development project, ‘Biyahe Ta Mindano’ (Let’s Travel to Mindanao) aims to encourage Mindanaons to explore the potential tourism hubs in their own island and later become promoters of these destinations to the rest of the country and the world.

Initial coverage of the campaign promotes the provinces of Bukidnon, Cagayan de Oro, Oroquieta, Ozamis and Dapitan. Key destinations include Seagull Valley in Budda, Bukidnon with its overwhelming scenery and freezing weather; Gloria’s Fantasyland, the so-called Disneyland of the Philippines, and the historical place of Jose Rizal’s exile in Dapitan City.

@ taegon

his sig seems reeking of hype and propaganda lacking in truthful basis intending to mislead those that read it

and if the excuse is that it's just an opinion then what an irresponsible opinion



To prove my sig,

1) Okay, let's begin with CdeO as the fastest growing urban center in this island: http://www.philippine-builder.com/news/top-stories/215-cagayan-de-oro-remains-the-fastest-growing-urban-center-in-mindanao.html

In fact CdeO is the fastest growing city even in entire Philippines according to NEDA in 2009 or 2010 if I'm not mistaken. Interested to find an article about this? Well, this is your burden anymore. Many times before I posted an article here in SSC.


2) CdeO being the capital of Normin as the most dominant regional economy in Mindanao: http://www.mindanaoan.com/2010/01/28/region-10-becoming-mindanao%E2%80%99s-dominant-regional-economy/


3) CdeO as the main transhipment hub: Well, the main transhipment hub when it comes to trading to Visayas and Luzon and East Asian countries. CdeO has airport, Oroport (soon to be RORO port) which is the largest domestic and international seaport in Mindanao if I'm not mikstaken and Mindanao Container port. Oroport and Mindanao Container Port are said to be the most modern here in Mindanao. Does this need a link? :)


4) CdeO as the melting pot of Mindanao. Being the center of land transportation in Mindanao and having opportunities to offer with its very stable peace and order, CdeO has become the melting pot. Does this need a link again? :)


5) CdeO as Mindanao's Industrial Hub. CdeO hosts number of industrial plants. Don't forget that PHIVEDIC or Cagayan de Oro Industrial Park is within CdeO's satellite town. Don't forget that Hanjin will build a 2 billion dollar shipyard soon according to the latest press release in CdeO's industrial satellites. Does this need a link again?


6) CdeO as the Center of Land Transpo in Mindanao. CdeO has 2 bus terminals. In fact there is a bus travel from CdeO-Tacurong, CdeO-Cotabato, vice versa. Does this need a link again? :)


7) CdeO as the Biggest recipient of investments. What do you think? :lol:


8) CdeO hosted numerous conventions and other big events since 2007. Want link again? If I'm not mistaken, CdeO hosted 1,500 national conventions in 2007. ^^


9) CdeO as the Adventure Capital of the Philippines. CdeO is well known not only to white water rafting (which makes CdeO as the Adventure Capital of the Philippines according to the article that I have hard time to find now at net.), an entry point of Dahilayan zipline which is the longest in Asia, but also CdeO is well-known of other extreme adventure sports and eco-tourism destinations. :)

Anyway, I don't give a damn if these people will continue calling me like that since it only means that they are so angry or hate me so much. Well, I don't care if they use to be like that. :lol:

Nat’l Tourism Group Picks CdeO To Host Tourism Forum
by Rubelyn B. Yap/city Information Office

A national inter-agency body that actively works along the promotion of the country’s tourism industry identified Cagayan de Oro as one of the areas in the country with strong tourism investment potentials.

The Tourism Investment Promotions Group (TIPG) based in Manila led by the Department of Tourism and is composed of different national line agencies that works on investment and promotions in the country chose Cagayan de Oro as one of the three key cities in the country where a tourism investment forum will be held. The TIPG will hold the Tourism Investment Forum, in the city tomorrow, November 8, 2007 at the Mallberry Suites Business Hotel. The regional tourism office will host the said forum that aims to enhance the awareness and understanding of both the public and private sectors of the benefits of a booming tourism industry, as well as capacitate and prepare the participants for a more proactive involvement in investment promotion. The city is the third beneficiary of the said forum after Naga and Iloilo cities. Around 80 tourism key players from private and public sector all over the region are expected to participate in the said forum. Among the topics to be discussed are investment climate of the city and the region, Cagayan de Oro tourism, tourism investment loss, investment plan, Special Economic Act and lending programs and credit facilities. City Tourism Officer Imma Rae D. Gatuslao who will represent the city government in the forum said that the city government welcomed the said move. Gatuslao said that while it takes a lot of work to do it, but with the full support of City Mayor Constantino G. Jaraula, the local tourism industry will certainly become an international tourism destination. Records from the DOT show the city hosted a total of 30,832 conventions and seminars for the first six months of 2007. Of the said figure, 1,555 are national conventions while the city’s hotel occupancy rate showed an increase from 79 percent in the first quarter to 84 percent in the second quarter and 96 percent in the first two months of the third quarter.

What else do you want me to prove regarding my sig? LOL

Anyway, other sigs of mine again don't need links. I already explained them. They are pretty understandable. :)

I had a hard time when I searched that article. So hard to find at net nowadays, but for the benefit of your doubt then I tried my best searching any links that I had read before for me to post articles or links here. :cheers:

Funny @ TAegon, nagpakita ka lang ng stats for CdeO but what about the other places in Mindanao? Are you sure CdeO's numbers are bigger than that of other cities in Mindanao? Ang imo lang man gud gibuhat is to show strong numbers for CdeO then immediately take it as the "proof" without relating it to other places in the island
For example sa conventions, sure CdeO may have hosted X numbers of conventions, but are you sure the other places hosted less? How about Eco tourism adventures, sure CdeO has them, pero wala ba ang ubang lugar ana?

Anyway, DOT's 8 Anchor destinations for tourism and MICE
