The Problem and its Background

1.1 Barangay Profile

1.1.1 Historical Background Barangay San Miguel is a narrow longitudinal stretch and located on the northeastern past of Pasig Rizal, now Pasig City. It is bounded on the southeast by the Pasig River known as Parian Creek. The creek separates San Miguel from Barangay Palatiw. San Miguel is bounded on the north by barangay Caniogan and Barangay Sagad on the west. A tributary of Marikina River snakes through in a semi-circular direction, linking up with the Parian Creek. The Barangay was formerly called “PULO”, which means, an island. The place earned the name “pulo” during the Spanish era because it was isolated from the other adjoining barangay, not by a body of waters but by forest and vast bamboo groves. The only means of transportations were the canoes, rafts and banca. Some old folks attest to the fact that pot making in Pasig started in “pulo”. People in the old days earned their living by making eathern cooking pots (palayok), jars, banca and flowers pots. It was customary during those days to start shaping the molded mud right after the angelus. This was done by beating the mud with a wooden instrument covered with cloth. At twilight, the sound of “PALO” was heard all over the place. Later, the word “PALO” became “PULO” and the place came to be known by this name. During the Spanish regime, a Spanish friar built a small bamboo chapel in this isolated place and installed

    Today, numerous “nipa” thatched roof umbrellas dot the resorts’ sandy beaches, and the “nipa” thatched roof shacks accomodate the resorts’ “watering holes” for libation purposes. The Filipinos who brought the coconut/nipa-palm trees to this area back in the 16th century named these nipa huts “palapa,” a term which the Mexicans have retained to this day. In my research, the word palapa has its roots in Javanese from the word “kelapa,” meaning coconut. Palapa, referring to nipa/coconut fronds, was the term used by the inhabitants of the Philippines during that time.…

    The name Samal was derived from the word (sama) the tribe of the natives who are the first inhabitants of the Island. People used the word Samal because of the Visayans who miscalled the word Sama. The first datu in the island was Datu Taganiyug, a native of Peñaplata, Samal. In the past, the people of Samal name a place about what was the said place known for. For example, the name Peñaplata was derived from the word "piña" or pineapple because of the abundance of pineapple in the area. This, however, is folk etymology as peñaplata literally means "rock of silver" in Spanish. Tagpopongan is the first barangay in Samal which name was from the word "tagpo" or meet. It was called so because in the past, this place is chose by the datus as their meeting place.…

    2“When the Spaniards began their 1951 Philippine adventure; there was no central Philippine government. But Filipinos then already have a system of government for they lived in groups of about a hundred to a thousand people in villages that could support themselves and their beasts of burden which called barangay. The term barangay was derived from the word “balangay” meaning boat. Barangay was led by an elder, warriors and a chieftain sometimes called Datu, Hari, or Rajah, Lakan or Sultan (in Muslim community) or any name which connotes the leadership. They were usually the strongest or oldest warrior with absolute powers; they often had the power of life and death over their subjects.
