BARANGAY AMBIONG

PHYSICAL AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE

I. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

Long time ago, Barangay Ambiong was a part of a vast land in La Trinidad. However, itgot no name during those times until settlers from Kabayan, Bokod, Amburayan, Ampusonganand Kibungan of Benguet came. Majority of the natives who settled in the area were the Ibaloisand Kankanaeys. The term Ambiong originally came from the ibaloi word “AMBIONGAN” whichgenerally means “BLACK CARPET BEES”. These bees were often found in the rolling hills andforests where wild flowers and the thick foliage used to abound. They also make their sheltersby drilling through the trunk of dead trees. Ambiong was predominantly a thick lush, rich floraand fauna up until the 1960’s. For a long time, before the modern era, the area was purposelyfor hunting and food gathering activities.

Generally, the Barangay was a part of Barangay Eastern Pico but it was separated in1948 by virtue of Presidential Decree (P.D.) No. 3590 and P.D. No. 557. Since then, it was calledBARANGAY AMBIONG.

Today, it functions as the watershed of both the Municipality of La Trinidad and the Cityof Baguio. Ambiong’s land use remains to be at least 50% forest. Aside from this, the productionof chrysanthemum cut flowers is increasingly becoming predominant. To maintain the balancebetween its forests despite its growing commercial production is the challenge of today’sdevelopment planners.

This socio-economic and physical profile has been produced in an effort to providebaseline and benchmark information regarding Barangay Ambiong. It further assesses the basicneeds of its people in terms of livelihood, health and sanitation, peace and order, education,shelter, basic utilities and people’s participation among others. These shall hopefully assistdecision-makers from the barangay to the highest level of government and non-governmentorganizations by providing insights for programs and projects for the development of thebarangay.
