People and culture

Surigao is home to the Mamanwa and Manubo ethnic tribe. Their dances are showcased in a local festival called "Sirong Festival", held especially during the town fiesta of Cantilan. The Sirong Festival depicts the early christianization of the early Cantilangnons (the Mamanwas and Manobos) wherein the natives tried to defend their land against Muslim envaders.

The Mamanwas and Manubo, the ethnic tribe of Surigao, have been converted to Christianism long ago, during the early times of the Spanish conquerors.

Economy

Surigao del sur is one of the supplier of agricultural items like, rice, banana and some tropical fruits. Copper, chromite and silver are also found here.

History

Before the Spaniards came, the aborigines of the province were the Mamanua and Manobo. Later, our Austronesian brothers from the Visayas came to settle with the natives. It was with the arrival of the immigrants that the province acquired its name from one of the natives, Saliagao, who lived near the mouth of the river.The name Saliagao was later pronounced Surigao by the inhabitants.

It is also said that long time ago, some Visayan fishermen forced by the strong current of the Surigao Strait, sought refuge in one of the huts somewhere in the province. The Mamanua who thought that these fishermen wanted to occupy the hut by force said “Agaw”, the term which was later given a prefix “Suri” by an immigrant.

Surigao formerly, was extended from what is known as Agusan, including the islands east of it and the northern regions of Davao and the capital of the province that time was Caraga and so the Spaniards called the people Caragas.

The aborigines of Surigao del Sur were a conglomeration and mixture of different racial types, namely: Mandaya, Mamanua, Mansaka and Manobo. These racial groups were of Malayan-Indonesian ancestry which took place thousand years ago. In the course of their migration, these primitive nomads were believed to have separated their ways in some portions of the archipelago in a spirit of adventure and search for food (i.e., during the pleisto scene of the glacial ages). It was believed further that they first settled in the northern island of the country who later took their bancas and reach the shores of Mindanao particularly in the Provinces of Surigao and Davao. They scattered among themselves in spots either in pairs or by family clans, retaining their own customs, dialects and ways of life.

There was no trace of exact dates and places of arrival. But it was known that this group of people were very nomadic and were the remnants of the present Mamanua and Manobo found in the wilderness of the northern part of Davao bordering the Province of Surigao. Their migratory movement was said to have come from the hinterlands of Agusan and along the foothills of western and southern part of Surigao del Sur. It was pointed out that the cause of migration was due to famine and occurrence of death from diseases believed caused by evil spirits.

The Province of Surigao del Sur was created as the 56th Philippine province on June 19, 1960 by virtue of RA 2786 and was formally organized or separated from its mother province, Surigao del Norte, on September 18, 1960.

At the time of its inception, it was classified as 4th Class province with an annual income of over P300,000.00. Seven years later, because of rapid increase of revenue collection particularly from the logging ventures, it has been reclassified as Ist Class B and in 1980 as Ist Class A with an estimated annual income of around P13,000,000.00. Presently, it is reclassified as 2nd Class with a revenueadding up to P315,888,300.63.

Honorable Recaredo B. Castillo was the appointed Governor and subsequently elected Governor and Honorable Vicente L. Pimentel as the first elected Congressman. Hon. Vicente T. Pimentel, Jr. is the eighth and incumbent Provincial Executive.

Originally the province had 13 municipalities. In subsequent years, six more were added raising the number to 19 with Tandag as its capital town. Now, one of its municipalities has been elevated to a city category and this is Bislig City.

Since Tandag ang capital, lets just request the mods to change it to "Tandag, Bislig and the Surigao del Sur Province" removed the "city" to avoid the argument. :cheers:

so the sprawl over there is Mangagoy proper..bibo man sad diay..

Bislig has become a ghost town when PICOP collapsed....this province used to be the backwaters of Region 11....it became part of CARAGA during its inception...now it remains as the backwater of CARAGA

can you educate me whats PICOP?

How do you get to Lanuza if you're coming from Davao ?

Many thanks..

@govinda if your taking the bus, disembark at San Francisco Agusan del Sur terminal and transfer to another bus or van for Tandag, Surigao del Sur. At Tandag, you again have to transfer to another van for Lanuza.

If your taking a private vehicle, its the same route, upon reaching San Francisco Agusan del Sur, you trun right at the rotunda until you reach Barobo, Surigao del Sur, then turn right going to Bislig. Medyo libog ang route if its your first time, just follow the directional signs and from time to time ask around.

Pwede sad you go through Surigao del Norte side since the roads here toward Surigao Sur are better and Lanuza is nearer this side. If mag bus ka, you may disembark at a place called Bad-as, Placer which is a junction. There are vans therein for Surigao del Sur. If private vehicle you go straight to Claver Surigao del Norte, the next twon would be Carrascal Surigao del Sur already, followed by Cantilan, then Madrid, Carmen and finally Lanuza.

hope that helps.

yuh..kit.an man naku na ang Mangagog sa mga signboard sa bus..etc..unsa jud diay iyang role sa Bislig?

Mangagoy is a barangay of Bislig City but more developed and progressive than the poblacion because of PICOP. Pero karon, depression didto kay shut down naman ang picop.

the presence of the bodyguards is understandble considering the seurity situation in the area. Pero when he is with us mga brod, paulion na niya.

Taipan to invest over $700 million in hydro power plants (http://http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=442603&publicationSubCategoryId=66)
By Donnabelle L. Gatdula Updated February 23, 2009 12:00 AM


MANILA, Philippines - One of the country’s taipans is planning to invest over $700 million to put up hydro power facilities in Luzon and Mindanao, well-placed industry sources said.

“A group of investors, including a taipan, is putting up hydro power plants in several locations in Luzon and Mindanao,” the sources said yesterday.

They said the consortium is now in the process of conducting land surveys in preparation for the construction of a 332-megawatt (MW) hydro power facility in Luzon.

This capacity, the sources said, could be expanded up to another 300 MW.

According to sources, the taipan really wants to take an active role in the government’s effort to develop renewable energy (RE) sources.

“Hydro power is clean and renewable,” the sources said, when asked why the taipan chose to build a hydro power facility.

There are over 40 indicative hydro power projects that are listed in the Department of Energy’s Philippine Energy Plan (PEP) which will generate 1,025 MW.

The Metro Luzon Urban Beltway and Mindanao regions host the bulk of the potential projects with a total capacity of 368 MW and 369.8 MW, respectively.

The biggest indicative project based on the PEP is the 360 MW expansion of CBK Power of the Kalayaan Pumped Power Storage in Laguna which is expected to be completed in 2011.

Another huge hydro power project expected to be completed in 2011 is the Salug Daku hydro power plant in Saguiaran, Lanao del Norte.

The PEP indicated that there are already 14 hydro power projects with feasibility studies all over the country. These projects are estimated to provide an additional 255.2 MW to the country’s hydro power capacity.

The projects are being undertaken by various developers. These are: Solutions Using Renewable Energy (SURE); Province of Biliran; PNOC-EDC/Soluziona, Chase Makros Management Inc. (CMMI); Benguet Power Resources Development Corp.’ First Gen Visayas Hydro Power Corp.; and the Sta. Clara Power Corp.

The DOE noted that two of these projects will proceed to the construction phase. These are: Colasi in Mercedez, Camarines Norte; and Sipangpang in Cantilan, Surigao del Sur projects with a potential capacity of 1 MW each. Both projects are expected to be completed this year.
