The year 2016 for the Provincial Government of Cavite is a year of success. On the perspective of development planning, this year is a year of changing, re-assessing and coping. As the saying goes, strong characters are brought out by change of situation. This is also true for Cavite. The only way to succeed and progress is to shift the direction through the changing winds. This year’s Ecological Profile (EP) is once again a testament of Cavite’s success in achieving its approved plan. The Research, Statistics, Monitoring and Evaluation Division have made another good effort in coming with this year’s comprehensive EP. This year, Cavite was named as the 2nd Most Competitive Province. That is more than an affirmation of our efforts to catalyze progress in the province. Cavite is now geared to become a digital province. With the enabling leadership of Gov. Jesus Crispin C. Remulla, this Ecological Profile would be of a great help in establishing baseline situation for any government intervention to uplift the quality of life of Caviteños. My sincerest thanks extend to all our partners at PPDO, national and local government agencies and the private sector in partaking in the completion of the Cavite Ecological Profile 2016. Thank you very much and to God be all the glory. JESUS I.

Sacriz Staff Gela Rushane S. Sale Staff Judy C. Calica Statistician Aide Chapter 1. History Brief History of Cavite As early the Spanish regime, Cavite was already a significant area of interest. In particular, the colonizers arriving in the late 16th century were found importance to the unusual tongue of land thrust into Manila Bay. They perceived its value to become a main staging ground where they could launch their bulky galleons. Formed in the shape of a hook, which in Tagalog is called Kawit, it became the most significant port linking the colony to the outside world. The present location of Cavite City was once a mooring place for Chinese junks trading that came to trade with the settlements around Manila Bay. In 1571, Spanish colonizers founded the port in the said area. They also fortified the settlement as a first line of defense for the city of Manila. Galleons were built and fitted at the port and many Chinese merchants settled in the communities of Bacoor and Kawit. They are Brothers-in-Arms monument and Cine Corregidor ruins. opposite the Spanish city to trade silks, porcelain and other Oriental goods. The vibrant mix of traders, Spanish seamen and local residents gave rise to the use of pidgin Spanish called Chabacano. In 1614, the politico-military jurisdiction of Cavite was established. It covers all the present territory of Cavite except for the town of Maragon don, which used to belong to the Corregimiento of Mariveles. Maragondon was ceded to Cavite in 1754. Within M aragondon was a settlement established in 1663 for Christian exiles from Ternate, Mollucas. Considering that Cavite was a valuable asset due to its military importance, Cavite was attacked by foreigners in their quest to conquer Manila and the Philippines. The Dutch made a surprise attack on the city in 1647, pounding the port incessantly, but were repulsed. Likewise, in 1672, the British occupied the port during their two-year interregnum in the Philippines. American forces attacked the Spanish squadron in Cavite. The Spanish defeat marked the end of Spanish rule in the country. During the Spanish time, there is presence of missionary orders, specifically the friars, who played significant roles in the Spanish occupation of the country. These missionary orders acquired vast haciendas in Cavite during the 18th and 19th century. These haciendas became the source of bitter agrari an conflicts between the friar orders and Filipino 1 farmers. This has pushed a number of Caviteños to live as outlaws. This opposition to the friar orders was an important factor that drove many Cavite residents to support reform, and later, independence. In 1872, a mutiny by disgruntled navy men in Cavite led to a large-scale crackdown of reformers and liberals. Three Filipino priests – Jose Burgos, Mariano Gomez and Jacinto Zamora- were executed and dozens others were sent into exile. In 1896, after the outbreak of the Philippine Revolution, Cavite took c enter stage as thousands of Katipuneros liberated in most of the province's towns. On August 26, 1896, when the Philippine revolution against Spain broke out, Cavite became a bloody war theatre. Led by Emilio Aguinaldo, Caviteños made surprise attacks on the Spanish headquarters and soon liberated the whole province. Emilio Aguinaldo, the first Philippine president came from the town of Kawit and directed the conduct of the Revolution from his base in th e province. He agreed to go into exile in December 1897, but returned to the Philippines in May 1898. On June 12, he declared Phili ppine independence from the balcony of his home in Kawit. The Americans established civil government in the province in 1901. The naval station in Sangley Point became the chief Ameri can naval base in the country. During the World War II, the Japanese targeted the naval base during the first wave of attacks on military installations in the Philippines. Cavite and its people, what they are today, and what will be tomorrow will remain their infinity, as a place with a glorious history, and a people fortified with strength to live and die for a worthy cause. History of Provincial Government of Cavite The provincial government of Cavite has a colorful history. During the greater part of the Spanish regime the provincial admi nistration was handled by the alcalde mayor who was the representative of the governor and captain general in Manila. As alter ego of the Chief executive of the country, the alcalde mayor exercised over all executive, judicial, and legislative functions within his jurisdiction. He was in fact a petty captain general because he held under his orders the armed forces of the province for purposes of defense and maintenance of peace and order. By the Decree of June 25, 1847 the title of alcalde mayor in Cavite was changed to politi co-military governor. He was also tripped of judicial functions. The last Spanish politico-military governor of Cavite, with headquarters in the cabecera of Cavite (now Cavite City), was Col. Fernando Pargas whom Emi lio Aguinaldo, as captain municipal of Cavite el Viejo (now Kawit), saw on the morning of August 31, 1896 to ask for a detachment of soldiers to protect his town from bandits. Aguinaldo’s plan was to ambush the government troops on their way to Kawit and seize their arms which his Magdalo followers needed urgently to start the armed uprising against Spain. 2 While waiting for his turn to talk to Pargas in his office, Aguinaldo learned that only one company of soldiers was left in C avite as all available infantry men had been sent to Manila upon urgent summons from Governor and Captain General Ramon Blanco, who had placed eight Luzon provinces (Manila, Bulacan, Pampanga, Tarlac, Nu eva Ecija, Laguna, Batangas and Cavite) under martial law following the discovery of the Katipunan secret society. With this valuable information, Aguinaldo returned post-haste to Kawit and with the help of two councilmen, Candido Trias Tirona and Santiago Daño, led the assault and capture of the town’s tribunal (municipal building). Earlier that day the towns of San Francisco de Mal abon (now General Trias) and Noveleta had risen in arms and taken over the control of the local government. It was this cry of Cavite on August 31, 1896, that signalled the beginning of the revolution . This soon spilled over to nearby provinces until it engulfed the entire country. Spanish sovereignty in the Philippines was overthrown by revolutionists led by Aguinaldo. Historical documents show that duri ng the revolutionary regime, Cavite had three politico-military governors: Mariano Trias, Emiliano Riego de Dios and Ladislao Diwa. The revolutionary regime was succeeded by the American regime. Cavite had nine provincial governors from the start of the American regime until the establishment of the Commonwealth government in 1935. These governors were Mariano Trias (1901-1905); Louis J. Van Schaick (1906-1907); Leonardo R. Osorio (1908-1909); Tomas Mascardo (19101912); Antero S. Soriano (1912-1919); Luis O. Ferrer, Sr.; (1919-1921); Raymundo Jeciel 1922-1925); Fabian Pugeda (1925-1931) and Pedro F. Espiritu (1931-1934). The Commonwealth regime lasted from 1935 to 1946. It was interrupted by the Pacific war and the subsequent Japanese occupatio n of the country. Three governors served during the first phase: Ramon Samonte (1935-1939); Emilio P. Virata, acting governor (1939), and Luis Y. Ferrer, Jr. (1940-1944). Ferrer was succeeded by Mariano N. Castañeda from May to November 1944. The Japanese-sponsored Second Republic under Dr. Jose P. Laurel was proclaimed in October1943. Dominador M. Camerino was appoin ted governor from December 1944 to the early part of February 1945. On February 13, Castañeda was recalled as governor by the commander of the advancing Allied forces. The Commonwealth government was re-established towards the end of February 1945 with Rafael F. Trias as the governor. He served for only a few months after he w as succeeded by Francisco T. Arca. The Third republic was established on July 4, 1946 by virtue of the Tydings-McDuffie Act. Manuel Roxas, the last elected president of the commonwealth, continued as president of the Third Republic. During that time, Dominador Camerino was appointed governor. During the end of his term, Mariano B. Vi llanueva and Horacio Rodriguez took turn of Camerino’s position. 3 Camerino was elected governor in 1952, but again toward the latter part of his term, he was replaced by Dominador Mangubat wh o acted as governor from 1954 to 1955. Mangubat was followed by Delfin Montano who was elected governor for four consecutive terms (1956 to 1971). Lino D. Bocalan succeeded him in 1972. He was replaced by Dominador M. Camerino who served as acting governor from October 1, 1972 until his death on July 24, 1979. Juanito R. Remulla was appointed as acting governor on September 25, 1979. Under the Third Republic, he was elected governor on January 30, 1980. President Marcos proclaimed the Fourth Republic in 1981 and still, Remulla was in his service as governor until May 1986. Fernando C. Campos succeeded him in 1986 to 1987. Remulla was reelected for a long term (1987-1995). He was succeeded by Epimaco A. Velasco from 1995 to January 1998 and when he was given a position as Secretary of the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), Ramon “Bong” Revilla, Jr. was appointed in place of him. Bong Revilla served from February 2, 1998 to 2001. He was then replaced by Erineo “Ayong” S. Maliksi in 2001. Maliksi served for three consecutive terms (2001 – 2010). Gov. Juanito Victor “Jonvic” C. Remulla, Jr. took his oath as the new governor of Cavite last June 26, 2010 at Holy Cross Parish in Tanza, Cavite. During the turn-over ceremony last June 30, 2010 held at the Provincial Capitol Building’s Ceremonial Hall, Gov. Remulla vows to continue the programs of the last administration and promise to prioritize public service to the Caviteños. His flagship program is to bring the province on a higher ground by making “Cavite: First Class, World Class”. Gaining the trust of his constituents during his first term, Gov. Jonvic was re-elected in May 2013 for his second term of office. On the 2016 Election, Gov. Jonvic decided not to run for Office and was succeeded by his brother Gov. Jesus Crispin C. Remull a, a three-termer Representative of the Province. His administration started on July of 2016 and will last until June of 2019. 4 Chapter 2. Geo-Physical Environment Political Boundaries Geographical Location of Cavite Considering the rising population of the province, the addition of new The province of Cavite has well-defined political subdivisions. Cavite is part of the Philippines’ largest island, the Luzon Peninsula. Found in the southern portion, legislative districts is a good move in order to ensure the appropriate Cavite belongs to Region IV-A or the CALABARZON region. It is bounded by the provinces of representation of the province in the congress. In the year 2009, by Batangas in the south, Laguna in the east, Rizal in the northwest, Metro Manila and Manila Bay in the virtue of RA 9727, the province was divided into seven legislative north, and West Philippine Sea in the west. Its proximity to Metro Manila gives the Province significant districts. The move to increase the number of congressional edge in terms of economic development. representatives in Cavite aids the province to have better representation in the national government and in effect receive more appropriate government services and assistance. Currently, the Province is composed of 16 municipalities and 7 cities with a total of 829 barangays (Table 2.1). The seven cities include the seat of the Provincial Government- Trece Martires City, the defense frontier- Cavite City, the provincial summer capital- Tagaytay City, the City of Dasmariñas under the Republic Act 9723 which was ratified last November 25, 2009 and which also happens to be a lone legislative jurisdiction of District IV, City of Bacoor and City of Imus by virtue of RA 10160 dated February 08, 2012 and RA 10161 dated April 10, 2012, respectively, and the newly converted City of Gen. Trias through Republic Act 10675 which was signed into law on August 19, 2015 and ratified on December 12, 2015. By virtue of Presidential Decree 1163, Imus is the provincial capital but the seat of the provincial government is located at Trece Martires City. 5 Table 2.1 Number of Barangays by City/ Municipality and Congressional District, Province of Cavite: 2016 City/Municipality 1st District Cavite City Kawit Noveleta Rosario 2nd District City of Bacoor 3rd District City of Imus 4th District City of Dasmariñas 5th District Carmona Silang Gen.

This is very useful in recommending the best land-use for that area. Moreover, if intended for agriculture, knowing the soil type will also aid in identifying the Hydrosol and Obando sand are found along Bacoor Bay. The shoreline of Rosario, Tanza, Naic and Ternate are lined with Guadalupe sand. The central area principally consists of Magallanes loam with streaks of Magallanes clay loam of sandy texture. This is recommended for diversified farming such as the cultivation of upland rice, corn, sugarcane, vegetables, coconut, coffee, mangoes and other fruit trees.

This will contribute to The eastern side of Cavite is consists of Carmona clay loam with streaks of Carmona clay loam steep the achievement of optimized land productivity. phase and Carmona sandy clay loam. This type of soil is granular with tuffaceaous material and The soil surveys conducted by the Bureau of Soils and Water Management (BSWM) revealed that Cavite is composed of ten (10) soil types. The lowland area of Cavite is generally composed of Guadalupe clay and clay loam. This soil type is characterized as coarse and concretions. It is hard and compact when dry, sticky and plastic when wet. This type of soil is planted to rice with irrigation or sugarcane without irrigation. Fruit trees such as mango, avocado and citrus are also grown in this type of soil. Guingua fine sandy loam is found along the lower part of Malabon and Alang-ilang River at Noveleta. granular when dry but sticky and plastic when wet.

About one-half of this soil is hard and compact and difficult to cultivate that makes it soil type is devoted to upland rice and upland crops. On the other hand, Tagaytay sandy loam is generally unsuitable for diverse cropping. It is very sticky when wet friable and granular with considerable amount of volcanic sand and underlain by adobe clay. and granular when dry. Forage grass is advised for this type of soil. Mountain soil undifferentiated is forested with bamboos found in the sea coast. Cavite also has the Patungan sand characterized by pale gray to almost white sand with substratum of marine conglomerates which are found at Sta. Mercedes in Maragondon and in some coastlines of Ternate. 8 Land Suitability Land suitability is the fitness of a given type of land for a defined use. The process of land suitability classification is the appraisal and grouping of specific areas of land in terms of their suitability for defined uses. Majority of the provincial land are defined for highly restricted agricultural use. The lowland areas covering the municipalities of Imus, Bacoor, General Trias, portions of Tanza, Naic and Rosario are primarily suitable for irrigated rice/fresh water fishponds. The central part of the Province covering mainly the municipalities of Dasmariñas, greater portions of Tanza, Naic, Gen. Aguinaldo and Trece Martires City are primarily suitable for cultivated annual crops.Cavite’s upland area covering the municipalities of Silang, Amadeo, Indang, Alfonso, Magallanes and small portion of Gen. Aguinaldo and Maragondon and the City of Tagaytay is principally suitable for perennial tree and vine crop production. The mountainous portions of the Province found at the western side and the area along the Tagaytay Ridge are considered as National Integrated Protected Areas System (NIPAS) land which cannot be altered from its natural habitat. The land suitability information was taken from the Land Management Unit (LMU) map from the Bureau of Soils and Water Management (BSWM). This information will be used to determine whether existing land use is in accordance with the suitability of the land for that use. 9 Ta ga ytay Ri dge at Tagaytay Ci ty Land Resources The built-up areas are comprised of settlements, industrial, commercial and Land Classification for human habitations. tourism areas.

By definition, groundwater is the water found underground in the per year. In the upland areas of the province, groundwater is tapped mainly for cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. It is stored in and moves slowly through domestic use through local water supply systems. geologic formations of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers. Based on the geological studies in Cavite, most of the ground water is stored in the The natural ground elevation or terrain affects the amount of ground water in an pyroclastic rock reservoir and little in the volcano and clastic rock. Potable water is not area, as well as the water extraction demand depending on industrial and reported in the near shore due to the presence of alluvium deposits which may be residential demand. brackish and saline and are not safe for drinking and other domestic use. Another source of groundwater is called infiltrated rainfall which serves as the direct source of The huge number of deep wells in the province has become a major source of most near surface aquifers.

The also contributes to the ground water. towns of Naic, Tanza and Ternate and the cities of Dasmariñas, Bacoor, Imus and Gen. Trias highly depend on artesian wells. These have become their major source Freely-flowing wells occur in the 30-meter elevation of Southern Tanza and in the of water. These have caused the salt water intrusion in the aquifers due to over lower portions of near shore Naic and Ternate while in the City of Imus, it is at the elevation of about 15 meters. Climate Cavite has two pronounced seasons, dry from November to April and wet on the rest of the year. The following table shows the climatological report of Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) from its Sangley Point Observation Center in Cavite City. The hottest temperature is observed in the month of May while it is coldest in January. Heaviest rains are experienced in the month of July and there is almost no rain on the onset of the year in January (Table 2.7). 15 Table 2.7 Monthly Average Temperature and Rainfall, Cavite City: 2015 Month January February March April May June July August September October November December Average Temperature (oC) 26.6 oC 27.4 oC 28.6 oC 30.6 oC 31.6 oC 31.1 oC 29.5 oC 29.7 oC 29.7 oC 29.4 oC 29.6 oC 28.2 oC 29.3 (Average) Rainfall (mms) 0.4 3.3 7.2 1.2 84.5 321.4 523.4 296.8 460.3 212.9 27.8 163.2 1,734.3 (Total) 16 Chapter 3.

As shown in Table 5.15, the province of Cavite listed 60 hospitals of which the 13 government-owned hospitals had a combined bed capacity of 686, while private hospitals (47) had a combined bed capacity of 2,431. Bed population ratio stood at 0.82 hospital bed per 1,000 population using the 2016 projected population. Among seven districts, District 1 and 4 exceeded the standard bed-population ratio with a rate of 1.49 and 1.13, respectively. Cavite 64 City with 2.82 with 6 hospitals got the highest rate in District 1 followed by Trece Martires City with 2.14 per 1,000 individuals in the area.

There are 56 doctors, 38 dentists, 202 nurses and 329 midwives employed in the city/municipal health offices. These resulted to the doctorpopulation ratio of 1:67,950 and dentistpopulation ratio of 1:100,136. As observed, this figure is too far to the standard doctor-population ratio of 1:20,000 and dentist-population ratio of 1:20,000. It is also noted that nurses comprising 33.38% of the total number of health personnel, has led to nurse-topopulation ratio of 1:18,838. The standard ratio is 1:20,000, meaning the province has 12 nurses above the standard requirement. Moreover, midwives had marked the ratio of 1:11,566 against the standard ratio of 1:5,000 resulting to a backlog of 432 to meet the required 761 midwives.

Peace and order situation in an area can also be a deciding factor for local and foreign investors where to venture investments. The province works hand-in-hand with Cavite Provincial Police Office (CPPO) despite significant developmental challenges that is inevitable to a highly urbanized province. This is being done through a total of 2,244 police personnel composed of 93 Police Commissioned Officers (PCOs) and 2,151 Police Non-Commissioned Officers (PNCOs). The ideal police to population ratio is one policeman for every 1,000 population (1:1000) for urban cities and municipalities. For the year 2016, Cavite has 3,805,185 projected population based on the 2015 Census of Population conducted by the Philippine Statistics Authority. As a result, the province has 1:1,696 police-to-population ratio showing a shortage of 1,601 uniformed personnel. Based on the table, the biggest shortage is observed in the City of Bacoor (-515) followed by City of Dasmariñas (-504) and Municipality of Tanza (-146). In terms of ratio, City of Gen. Trias, Alfonso, Indang, Maragondon, Naic and Ternate conform to the minimum standard of police-to-population ratio (Table 5.36).

This means that for every City/Municipality 100,000 people, there are around 20 incidents of crime every month. This result indicates that peace and order situation in the province is considered manageable. Population Total Crime action against major crimes that have occurred in the province. The highest AMCR is registered at Ternate with 37.54 %. Cities of Imus and Bacoor are considered populous cities in the province but show low average monthly crime rate with 16.63 and 19.36 %, respectively. It indicates that these City Police Stations are efficient and effective in maintaining the state of peace and order in their area of jurisdictions. Urbanized municipalities and cities have more manageable peace and order situations as reflected by their AMCR (Table 5.38). Crime Solution Efficiency A criminal case is considered solved when: 1) the offender has been identified, taken into custody, and charged before the prosecutor’s office based on sufficient evidence against the accused; 2) when some elements beyond police control prevent the arrest of the offender, such as when the victim refuses to prosecute after the offender is identified, dies or absconds; and 3) the arrest of one offender can solve several crimes or several offenders may be arrested in the process of solving one crime. Maragondon (72.73%), Amadeo (67.72%), and Magallanes (63.16%) have the highest crime solution efficiencies in the province. Meanwhile, municipalities with lowest crime solution efficiencies are Tagaytay City (28.66%), Trece Martires City (28.61%) and City of Gen.

A total of 1,590 cases has been recorded under Crime Against Persons (CAPER) which are categorized as follows: Murder with 409 cases (25.72%); homicide holds a total percentage of 3.71% or a total of 59 cases; physical injuries which holds the highest percentage posted at 800 or 50.31%; and 322 rape cases or 20.25%. Crimes against Property totaled to 2,370 cases of which 600 incidents or 25.31% are robbery cases, 1,363 incidents equivalent to 57.51% are theft cases, 403 cases or 17.00% are carnapping incidents and four cases under Republic Act 533 with 0.16%. City of Dasmariñas registered the highest incidents in all crimes against person and crime against property. This is due to increasing migration of people from nearby provinces and development of business and commercial establishments in the area. Among crimes against person, physical injuries are the most rampant while theft is the most extensive in crimes against property (Table 5.39). Urbanization is really taking its toll when it comes to maintain peace and order.

The total manpower of Cavite Bureau of Fire Protection is 313 composed of 16 fire officers, 294 non-officers and three (3) non-uniformed personnel. Fire personnel are provided and paid by different cities/municipalities where they are assigned or designated. Officers were stationed only in the Office of the Provincial Director and 13 fire stations while the rest are headed and manned by non-officers (Table 5.40). In 2016, the fireman-to-population ratio of the province is at 1:12,943. This makes Cavite deficient of 1,609 firemen based on the ideal and internationally accepted ratio of one fireman to two thousand inhabitants (1:2,000). This resulted to the existing personnel’s performance of multipl e functions in firefighting and administrative capacities. Recruitment of additional firemen is of great importance to deliver sufficient, fast and efficient services to the populace considering that the population is growing incessantly forecasted to reach 3,805,185 in 2016 (Table 5.41). 99 Total 19 45 13 13 9 10 20 20 20 20 18 18 53 14 18 21 58 7 21 13 17 80 13 12 6 1 10 12 11 15 0 313 Table 5.41 Fire Personnel Requirement by City/Municipality, Province of Cavite: 2016 Fireman to Population Ratio 2016 Projected Population Ideal Strength Actual Current Needs 1 st District Cavite City Kawit Noveleta Rosario 2 nd District City of Bacoor 3 rd District City of Imus 4 th District City of Dasmariñas 5 th District Carmona G e n .

This is complemented by Provincial Ordinance No. 007-2012 that regulates the use of plastics and promotes the use of environmental friendly packaging and practices.
