| Sibuco lambasted by typhoon Paolo |
Sibuco, a coastal municipality of Zamboanga Del Norte.
Most of the people here are dominantly Muslims.
This is the First Class municipality and it has a population of 34,620 people.
Sibuco a neighboring municipaliy of Zamboanga City and it has 28 barangays.
The present Mayor here is Mayor Norbideiri B. Edding a third termer.
This
municipality was created by virtue of Republic Act. Bo. 2195 which was approved
by the congress on May 07, 1959 and it was formally a municipal district of
Siocon.
Accordingly, Sibuco is a First Class municipality but it has a lowest tax
income in the whole province rated a
very poor depended only
on Internal Revenue Allotment or Ira.
Previously , the municipality failed to set up for the special accounts
for the 20% Economic Development Fund contrary to requirement of Section
107 and 108 of the New Government
Accounting System (NGAS), which exposes
the funds for possible misuse since
included in regular fund.
This Last Frontier of Zamboanga Del Norte of the South still poor among
the poorest municipality because allegedly it has no
municipal building, barangay halls, roads was very poor, no ports-dilapidated and even public
market and terminals allegedly no
implementations.
President Rodrigo Duterte said during his speech aired in PTV4, that after war on drugs and Marawi seige, he must focus on corruptions " I will never tolerated corrupt government" he would get rid on corruption.
But Sibuco still shimmering, that someday she can stand
by her own, develop and turning a poor municipality into tourists destination as Last Frontier of the
South, not shamelessly to say, but be proud of.
On the other hand, Sibuco lambasted Typhoon Paolo, hundreds of houses
raked and damaged including their livelihood.
People here evacuated to other neighboring municipalities and barangays
to saved their lives and properties. (By: Becky D. de Asis)
