10. Some facts:
1. Leyte had the highest number of farms in 2002
2. COCONUT is the dominant permanent crop
3. PALAY is the major temporary crop
4. Chicken and hog raising dominates the poultry and
livestock raising activity, respectively.
5. Importance of communal system of irrigation
11.
12. Implications:
• From 2002 up to 2008, there has been a
continuous increase in the production of
palay.
• However, a negative growth rate of value
production in crops (at constant prices), -0.15
has been recorded by the NSCB in 2010.
13.
14. Agricultural Situation as of June, 2011:
1. Crops:
- Some areas in the southern part of the region barely recovered from the previous quarter's
flooding (Bebeng, Chedeng, Egay, Falcon)
- unrepaired irrigation systems
2. Livestock and Poultry:
- Still relying on supplies from other regions
- Artificial insemination of cattle, hog and carabao in the south-western part of the region
3. Fisheries:
- Prices of fishery and marine products were higher than normal due to limited supply and
local importation.
4. Infrastructure Development, Programs, Policies and Government Interventions
- A newly constructed wet and dry market in Bato, Leyte, now open for occupants.
- Construction of farm to market roads in some barangays on the southern part of the
region was on-going.
- The LGU in Tabango, Leyte, launched the new goat market and trading center. The said
activity aimed to increase awareness on livestock farming through upgraded bred line raised
locally.
5. Weather Situation
- Scattered moderate to heavy rains occurred during the early part of the reference period
but generally warm and sunny weather prevailed throughout the month.

19. Implications of the 2008 Annual Survey of Philippine Business
and Industry (ASPBI) Findings to the Region 8’s Economy:
• Manufacturing Industries ranked first on the Average Revenue per Establishment,
also highest in Average Monthly Compensation and ranked third in terms of
employment. And so the LGUs in the region are encouraged to support the
growth of manufacturing sector.
• Hotels and Restaurants Industry: one of the low performing industries in 2008.
The data, employment and value added for this sector are considered to be
below average.
• More infrastructure support was deemed necessary by the local government to
increase revenue, since the region is located in Central Visayas which is the
tourism belt of the country.
• The survey results also showed that Agriculture, Forestry and Fishery Industry is
the most labor intensive, least productive and one of the lowest-paying
industries in the region.
• There is a need to shift the surplus labor in this sector to manufacturing and agri-
business

24. Note:
• Unlike in Regions 6 and 7 which experienced an increasing
rate, the number of non-residential establishments (which
comprises industrial, commercial, educational, health and other
buildings) in region 8 had a sharp decline in the 4th quarter of
2010.
• Also, Region 8 has the lowest number of nonresidential
buildings in the Visayas region.
• Overall, Region has the lowest total number in the
construction and housing sector in Visayas. This could be related
to the issue of poverty in the region.
25.
26. • Increase by 0.7 % (public elementary schools)
• Increase by 1.5% (secondary schools)
• It is the first increase in five years
27. • Northern Samar registered the highest increase in elementary level NER while
Biliran recorded the biggest decline of 1.6%.
• Samar posted the highest increase in secondary level NER while the only province
that experienced a decline was Biliran. (0.2%)
28. • Region 8 has the lowest functional literacy rate in every level in the Visayas region.
• Yet in SY 2004-05, Eastern Visayas topped the National Achievement Test (NAT) in
all subject areas. Considering that the Eastern Visayas region is relatively poor, the
region’s record of topping the NAT is a promising development for the area.

• Fluctuating number of teachers in private schools
through the years
• Private schools have more teachers than government
schools
• The trend in each region is almost the same with the
aggregated data.
• On mass media: Most households use radios than TVs.
30.
31.
32. •Electricity remains as the universal source of energy
•More households preferred the use of conventional fuel: there was a
decrease in the use of fuelwood and charcoal. This reflected the
increase in the accessibility of supply of petroleum products such as
LPG.
•Electricity was widely used across all income levels: all income
classes except households with less than P 5000 average family
income. 80% use fuelwood, charcoal and biomass residue.

35. • Total fertility rate was decreasing.
• Infant mortality rate, as well as under-five mortality rate
is increasing.
• In 2006, there was a large decrease in the maternal
mortality rate which could imply that there was an
improvement in the healthcare for pregnant women.
•The prevalence rate of underweight children decreased,
however, this was still below the MDG target. (necessary
to eradicate poverty)

59. Pressing Issues
• High vulnerability to natural disasters
• Mining
• Supreme Court “flip-flopping” decisions
• Public Health
• Others
– Bad politics
– High insurgency
60. High vulnerability to natural disasters
• Infrastructure identified by DPWH as vulnerable when a
strong earthquake hits
• 31 public school buildings, 22 municipal buildings, 5 rural
health centers, 1 barangay hall, 3 gymnasiums, 1 district
hospital, 2 commercial buildings
• The structures are either dilapidated or have shown
hairline cracks on floors, walls, or ceilings, which are signs
of possible collapse.
• Majority were constructed in the 1950s.
• Flooding caused by typhoons.
• Disaster and risk reduction to be taught in public high
schools, colleges
61. Mining
• Government and Private sector have shown keen
interest in developing the industry.
• CBCP criticized local leaders accusing them of acting
“more as agents of the mining firms rather than
agents of the people.”

Homonhon (Eastern Samar), and Batag (Northern
Samar).
62. Supreme Court “flip-flopping” decisions on
cityhood of 16 municipalities

63. Anyare?
• 2007 - cityhood bills lapsed into laws without the
President’s signature
• 2008 - SC declared cityhood bills
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
• 2009 - SC reversed 2008 ruling, so
CONSTITUTIONAL once again
• 2010 - SC reversed 2009 decision and reinstated
2008 decision; UNCONSTITUTIONAL
• 2011 - SC again reversed its decision;
CONSTITUTIONAL
64. So, ano ngayon?
• Cities receive more funds (IRA) from the national
government than municipalities.
• Because of the yearly flip-flop, the LGUs could
possibly have problems with budgeting.
