About the Province

1.1 Location

The province of Lanao del Sur is one of the six (6) provinces constituting the

Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM). The province is located at latitude 7°

24’ 34‖ and is nestled in the hinterland of Mindanao at an elevation of 702 meters above

sea level. It occupies the extensive plateau of North Central Mindanao and surrounds

the basin of Lake Lanao, the largest lake in Mindanao and the second largest in the

Philippines, next to Laguna de Bay.

The province of Lanao del Sur is bounded on the east by the province of

Bukidnon; on the South, by Maguindanao and North Cotabato; on the West by Illana Bay

and on the Northwest by the province of Lanao del Norte. Lanao del Sur is well-enclosed

within the Bukidnon-Lanao highland areas with a series of plateaus, plains, highlands

and basins, rolling hills and volcanoes whose mountain ranges serve as a natural

boundary from Maguindanao and Cotabato (Figure 1.1).

1.2 Topography and Hydrological Features

The province of Lanao del Sur is enveloped within the Bukidnon-Lanao highland

areas. Within the heart of the province is Lake Lanao which runs through Agus River and

divides the province as it flows northward towards Illana Bay. The Agus River which

serves as the source of Hydro-Power generation for a series of hydroelectric plants

spans1, 900 square kilometers.

Plateaus, hills, volcanoes and mountain ranges also abound in the province and

act as natural boundaries of Maguindanao and North Cotabato along its southern

portion. Towards the east near the Bukidnon boundary lies Maridagao Valley, which is a

large lowland area. The highest mountains in the province are Mount Ragang,

Piagayongan and Magatoring which measure about 6,000 to 9,000 feet above sea level.

The municipalities of Picong, Malabang, Balabagan and Kapatagan are located

in the coastal areas. These municipalities are located almost on a flat or plain terrain.

1.3 Land Area and its Uses

The province occupies 13,574.24 square kilometers (1,357,424 hectares)

including the City of Marawi with 340 square kilometers of water area like lakes and

swamps (Figure 1.2).

Out of the 39 municipalities comprising the province, the Municipality of Bubong

has the largest land area at 798.50 square kilometers (5.88%) while the Municipality of

Lumbaca Unayan is the smallest with 42.28 square kilometers, or only 0.31% of the total

land area of the province (Annex 1.1).

The total land area of the province is classified according to two (2) uses namely:

(1) Forest Land which includes (a) Production Forest, (b) Protected Forest and (c) Non

Forest (Agriculture); and (2) Alienable and Disposable (A&D) land which includes (a)

Production Areas, (b) Protected Areas and Built-up Areas.

The forest land of the province has an area of 1,258.239 square kilometers,

representing 9.27% of the total land area. The biggest forest land area is found in the

municipality of Lumba-Bayabao while the smallest forest land is situated in the

municipality of Kapatagan (Annex 1.2).

The A&D lands have an area of 1,502.523 square kilometers which represents

11.07% of the total land area. The largest A&D land is found in the municipality of

Tagoloan while the smallest is located in the municipality of Madalum. The production

areas within the A&D lands constitute 843.86 square kilometers, which are divided

according to the type of crops planted, such as: 192.623 square kilometers for seasonal

crops; 507.384 for annual crops; 5,766 for perennial crops and the remaining area for

fruit bearing trees (Annex 1.2).

The Bureau of Soils identified 11 types of soil common in the province. The

prevalent soil type is Salaman Loam Clay which accounts for 0.52%, followed by

Ramain and Buaya-an Loam Clay, 0.50% and Pua-an Loam Clay, 0.21%. All these are

identified as good types of land suitable for agriculture (Annex 1.3).

1.4 Political Subdivision

Lanao del Sur is composed of 39 municipalities and Marawi City, a component

city. It has a total of 1,158 barangays and is divided into two (2) congressional districts

(Annex 1.4).

1.5 Population

The 2007 Census of Population indicates a total population of 1,138,544

composing of various and diverse culture, race or ethnic origin. This represents 35.40%

of the total population of the ARMM recorded at 3,215,855. Based on the 2000 Census,

Lanao del Sur is predominantly occupied by Maranao population which accounts for

91.04% of the total population (Annex 1.5).



4

The province posted an annual growth rate of 3.42% from 1990 to 1995.

However, the annual population growth rate decreased to 3.18% from 1995 to 2000 due

to out migration resulting from the poverty situation in the province. The 2007 census

registered an annual population growth of 6.04% including Marawi City (Annex 1.5).

1.6 Economy

1.6.1 Agriculture

The economy of the province is largely dependent on agriculture due to two (2)

major factors. Firstly, the province is practically isolated due to its geographical location,

limited points of entry, elevation and surrounding mountains. The province is basically

rural with limited economic activities such as trade and commerce. Based on the data

gathered from the National Statistics and Coordination Board (NSCB), the economy of

the province has grown at a rate of 2.3% from 1.4% in 2002.

Secondly, because of the extensive plateau, the total production area of the

province is 843.68 square kilometers (6.21%), with 192.62 square kilometers devoted to

seasonal crops, 507.38 square kilometers appropriated for annual crops and 0.58

square kilometers reserved for perennial vegetation and fruit trees. The major crops of

the province are rice, corn, cassava and coconut.

Rice is the major agricultural product in the province cultivated in almost all of the

municipalities, except those in the coastal areas. Based on the 2008 data from the

Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF-ARMM), the total rice production was

118,754 metric tons.

The upland municipalities used to grow corn as another major agricultural

product. It is cultivated in the province not as staple food, but purely for commercial

purposes. Records from the Office of the Provincial Agriculturist of Lanao del Sur show

projected production for both white and yellow corn in 2008 amounting to 83,851 metric

tons.

Other major agricultural products in the province are cassava and coconut which

are cultivated in the coastal municipalities of Malabang, Balabagan, Kapatagan,

Marogong, Calanogas and some parts of the municipality of Picong. Per estimate from

the Office of the Provincial Agriculturist, the total production of cassava for the year 2005

was 40,651.15 metric tons.

Based on the Survey from the National Mapping and Resource Information

Authority (NAMRIA), there are about 397.66 square kilometers of land planted to

coconut in the province. These are mostly found in the municipalities along the coastal

areas. Data from the Bureau of Agricultural Statistics (BAS) in 1993 showed that coconut



5

production was 178,209 metric tons constituting 25.64% of the production output in

Central Mindanao.

1.6.2 Industry and Service

There are industrial and manufacturing firms located in the province like the

Matling Industrial and Commercial Corporation in the municipality of Malabang, Itil

Plantation Incorporated and the Lobregat Family Milling Corporation, all in the

municipality of Balabagan.

There are four (4) municipalities in the province of Lanao del Sur categorized as

secondary urban centers, namely: Wao, Malabang, Ganassi, and Lumbatan. These

municipalities, which account for a larger number of urban population, also serve as

commercial and trading centers. Among these municipalities, Wao and Malabang are

considered as commercial and trade centers. At the interior part of the province, the

commercial and trade centers are the municipalities of Ganassi and Lumbatan which are

classified as village or tertiary urban centers.

The municipality of Malabang serves as commercial and trade center of

municipalities along the coastal areas and the municipalities of Marogong and

Calanogas. The Municipality of Wao serves as the commercial and trade center of the

nearby municipality of Bumbaran and the nearby municipalities of the province of

Bukidnon.

Small-scale industries, ranging from food processing to cottage industries, are

also available in the province. Except for furniture and brass making, these kinds of

industries are less permanent. Thus, people who engaged in this kind of industry prefer

to venture to other more profitable activities. The limited marketing opportunity of the

processed foods, like the Maranao delicacies and cuisine, hinder the development of the

industry.

In 2007, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Provincial Office has

registered a total of 195 business establishments classified as trading, manufacturing

and service. Trading businesses posted the highest number with a total of 106, followed

by service establishments with 72 and manufacturing businesses with a total of 17. Most

of these registered business establishments are located in 24 municipalities including

Malabang, Wao and Marawi City. Of the registered business establishments, 192 or

98% are classified as micro while only three (3) or 2%, which are all located in Marawi

City, are classified as small (Annex 1.6).

Function Halls/Restaurants/Snack Inns that can accommodate wedding

ceremonies, parties, dialaga (marriage proposals), seminars and other social gatherings

are situated in Marawi City (Annex 1.7).



6

Financial institutions such as the Land Bank of the Philippines (LBP), Philippine National Bank (PNB), Islamic Investment Bank and Malabang Cooperative Bank are also located in the province. These institutions provide financial assistance in the form of loan to the constituents engaged in agro-fishery activities.

Finally, food processing activities such as bakeries and individuals engaged in

processing of Maranao delicacies such as palapa/spicies, dodol, tiatug, brua and others are also present in many areas of the province. Suming Lee Food Processing, located in Marawi City, is engaged in the processing of soya milk and herbal drinks.

1.6.3 Fishery

Fishing is also one of the major sources of income of the people residing along

the coastal areas and lakeshore of the Lake Lanao. The volume of fish production, as

provided by Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR-ARMM), were as

follows: 2004- 2,779 metric tons; 2005- 2,795 metric tons; 2006- 2,682 metric tons; and

2007- 2,646.48 metric tons (Annex 1.8).

Lanao del Sur is the leading province in the ARMM in terms of production of freshwater fishes (giant/highbred tilapia valued at P1,723,000.00 per BFAR and BAS data in 2005).The province also has a Freshwater Demo Fish Farm at Kialdan, Marantao, Lanao del Sur. There are also wide fishing grounds in the province such as the Illana Bay/Moro Gulf, Lake Lanao, Lake Dapao and Lake Butig.

1.7 Social Development

1.7.1 Education

The province of Lanao del Sur is divided into two (2) school divisions, Division I and Division II. These divisions are subdivided further into different districts. The 17 municipalities of the 1st congressional district and one (1) municipality from the 2nd congressional district are under the supervision of the Department of Education (DepEd), Division I. Some of the municipalities are subdivided into one or more districts with a total of 35 districts as of SY 2007-2008 (Annex 1.9).

There are public and private secondary schools in the province that cater to the

needs of the population. Most of the public secondary schools are national high schools.

There are also private secondary schools but are concentrated in the City of Marawi.

The records of the DepEd Lanao Division I and Division II show that there are 47

national high schools as of SY 2005-2006 (Annex 1.10)

The province has several public and private institutions of higher learning.

Records of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) in the ARMM show that there

27 private institutions of higher learning, three (3) public institutions and two (2) state

universities and colleges (Annex 1.11).



7

The literacy rate of the province is 80%. The high literacy rate may be attributed

to the presence of the Mindanao State University and other high standard private

educational institutions. Moreover, per survey of DEpEd ARMM, Lanao del Sur has the

highest number of private schools operating with more qualified teachers (Annex 1.11).

1.7.2 Health Facilities

Lanao del Sur has a total of 13 hospitals, five (5) of which are government-

owned. These hospitals are classified as primary and secondary. There are 12 primary

hospitals with 25 bed-capacity and one (1) secondary hospital with a capacity of 100

beds.

The five (5) government hospitals have their own catchment areas namely; Wao

District Hospital with 25 bed-capacity that services the municipalities of Wao and

Bumbaran. The Tamparan District Hospital with 25 bed-capacity covers the Municipality

of Tamparan and the nearby towns of Lumba Bayabao, Poona Bayabao, Masiu,

9

1.8.5 Water Resources / System

The major water source for consumption is Lake Lanao itself. Only the City of

Marawi is supplied with pressured pump water supply but could not reach some

barangays in elevated areas.

Out of the 39 municipalities of Lanao del Sur, only three (3) municipalities or 8%

are being served by Level III system, 13 municipalities or 33% are served by Level II

Presently, majority of the municipalities can be reached through either of these cell

phone companies.

Post mail is also available in the province that facilitates communications through

letters. There are municipalities where the Philippine Postal Corporation (PPC) has

existing office to speed up the delivery of postal mail on time.

Radio and television stations in the province are concentrated in the City of

Marawi. There are five (5) radio stations operating in the City with signal ranges that

reach the entire municipalities of the province except those in the coastal areas of

Malabang, Balabagan, Kapatagan and Picong. Aside from the television stations that

reach the different municipalities, there are also three (3) Cable Antenna Television

(CTV) stations, two (2) of which are operating in Marawi City and the other in the

Municipality of Wao (Annex 1.16).

The most popular communication system available in the province is the two-way

radio or the Very High Frequency (VHF) radio, although only few are registered with

National Telecommunication Commission (NTC). The actual number of two-way radio in

the province has not been ascertained but is estimated to a ratio of 5:1, for every five (5)

Chapter 2

Situational Analysis

2.1 Internal Analysis (Annex 2.1)

2.1.1 Strengths

Location:

Lanao del Sur is generally located outside the typhoon belt due to the heavy

wooded forests and mountains surrounding the province which provide natural shield

against typhoons. It is also known as the summer capital of the south due to its elevation

of 702 meters above sea level.

It is accessible through 36 kilometers Iligan to Marawi national highway and 118

kilometers from Cagayan de Oro City via Iligan City. The Narciso Ramos Highway

connects the province to Maguindanao and Cotabato City via Malabang.

About 20 or 51.28% of the municipalities comprising the province including

Marawi City are situated along the shores of Lake Lanao, while four (4) of its

municipalities are situated along the coastal areas of Illana Bay like Picong, Malabang,

Balabagan and Kapatagan. The presence of Lake Lanao, which is considered the

deepest and largest fresh water lake in the Philippines and one of the ancient lakes in

the world, serves as the source of hydroelectric generation plants providing some 1000

megawatts in Mindanao. In addition, various islands and islets like Nusa Island, Mala-a-

Balt, Maito-a-Balt, Polo Baracat and Sulangan are also located in the province. The

oldest traditional house called ―Torogan‖ is found in Marawi City.

Land Area and Uses:

The province of Lanao del Sur is endowed with bountiful resources that can

catalyze growth and development. One-fifth (1/5) of the total area is devoted to

production of which 44.10% is planted with corn and upland rice, 21.90% is devoted to

high value crops and 34% devoted to lowland rice production. From among the 11 soil

types in the province, as identified by the Bureau of Soils, salaman loam clay and pu-an

loam clay, which are considered to be suitable for all kinds of agricultural production,

occupies the largest portion of the land representing 0.73% of the total area devoted to

production.



12

Political Subdivision:

Lanao del Sur is one of the first class provinces in the ARMM. The province has

the largest number of political subdivisions with one (1) city, 39 municipalities and 1,158

barangays. It is politically subdivided into two (2) congressional districts.

Population:

Maranaos comprise 91.04% of the total population of 1,138,544, thus the

influence of Islam is strongly felt in the province. The remaining 8.96% represents the

Ilonggos, Cebuanos, Filipino Chinese, and Ilocanos residing in the province. About

73.24% of the population, aged 14-65 years old, are in the labor force including 12,000

Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs).

Based on the 2007 census, the province registered an annual growth rate of

6.04%. Marawi City registered the biggest population at 177,391 (15.58%), followed by

the municipality of Lumba-Bayabao with 57,304 (5.03%). The municipality of Tagoloan

has the smallest population with 11,144 or 0.98%.

Economy:

The province is largely dependent on agriculture due to large and wide food

production area (843.68 square kilometers). Aside from agricultural production, which is

the major source of livelihood, the province has wide fishing grounds. Lanao del Sur was

the leading province in ARMM in the production of freshwater fishes in 2005. The

Freshwater Demo Fish Farm is situated in Kialdan, Marantao, Lanao del Sur. There are

at least four (4) industrial and manufacturing firms located in the province. Food

processing business ventures in the province are likewise additional sources of

livelihood in the province.

Land Bank of the Philippines (LBP), Philippine National Bank (PNB), Islamic

Investment Bank and Malabang Cooperative Bank extend financial assistance to clients

engaged in agro-fishery endeavors in the province. In addition, the provincial

government reactivated the Provincial Small and Medium Enterprise Development

(PSMED) Council in order to encourage investors with small capitalization to establish

their own businesses.

The existence of tourist spots, golf course at MSU main campus, inland resorts

with cold and hot natural springs attract tourists, thus enhancing the economy of the

province.



13

Social Sector:

Medical and health facilities and services coupled with the existence of a capitol-

based Provincial Health Office as supplement to the IPHO-ARMM are available in the

province. The presence of the Mindanao State University (main campus) and the

Jami’ah Muslim Mindanao, the biggest and oldest Islamic school in the Philippines , has

positively influenced the increasing literacy rate in the province. The presence of

institutions for manpower training and development such as the Technical Education and

Skills Development Authority (TESDA) and other vocational schools provide skills

development opportunities to the workforces of the province.

Infrastructure Sector:

The road network in the province is extensive. The national road constitutes 19%

of the total road network; provincial road, 42%; and municipal road, 39%. The GMA

Central Terminal for buses and public utility vehicles covering the Marawi-Cotabato and

Marawi-Iligan-Cagayan de Oro-Davao routes continue to support the mobility of people

and cargoes in and outside the province.

In addition, Malabang and Picong Ports serve the requirements of the importers

of cassava starch and other fruit crops of Matling Industrial Co. Rugnan and Sandab

Irrigation Systems at Basak Area and Butig, respectively support the needs of rice

producers. Rice and corn mills like Sahara Rice mill in Marawi City, the Corn Post-

Harvest Facilities at Wao and Ditsaan-Ramain, which are funded by National

Agribusiness Corporation (NABCOR) contribute to the improvement of farming activities

in the province.

Lake Lanao serves as the source of electric power for Mindanao with two (2)

hydroelectric power plants in the province. Finally, the presence of NPC hydroelectric

power plants is one of the strongest assets of the province because of the income

generated from the power plants.

Laws, Rules and Regulations:

The province has quarantine services and checkpoints disallowing the

transportation/ship-out of animals without permit from the office of the Provincial

Veterinarian.

Governance / Institutions:

The Chief Executives of Lanao del Sur and Marawi City signed executive orders

creating the Provincial and City Planning Team and the Provincial and City Halal

Technical working Groups of Lanao del Sur and Marawi City. In line with this, the



14

Provincial Governor issued Executive Order No.16, series of 2008, creating the

Provincial Halal Technical Working Group of Lanao del Sur. Moreover, the Mufti of

Lanao del Sur is included as a member of the Muslim Mindanao Halal Certification

Board, Inc. (MMHCBI).

Development Administration:

The creation of the MMHCBI has taken a significant role in the development of

the halal industry in the province. In addition, the presence of a Non-Governmental

Organization (NGO) ―Avoid Haram‖ also promotes the halal industry by advocating halal

foods. The Halal Certification Guidelines, formulated by MMHCBI with support from

LGSPA, were used as a basis for the Philippine National Standards on Halal Food

promulgated by the Bureau of Product Standards of the DTI. Finally, the reactivation of

the Provincial Ulama Council and the Advisory Council also play an important role in the

promotion of halal industry.

2.1.2 Weaknesses

Location:

The geographical location of the province results to isolation from other

provinces. Some municipalities situated along the periphery of Lake Lanao are

inaccessible. Related to the isolation of the province are the limited economic activities

such as trade and commerce since the province is basically rural. As a result, the

transportation cost for trading activities within the province is high.

Land area / Land Use:

The pasturage areas in the province and Marawi City are not identified in their

respective Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP).

Political Subdivisions:

There are issues on disputed boundaries between some municipalities.

Population:

About 55% of the population lack awareness on the distinction between halal

from haram products.



15

Economy:

Although the province has abundant natural resources with a vast track of

agricultural land and fertile soil, agricultural productivity is not optimized due to

insufficient irrigation and post harvest, farm-to-market roads and other support

infrastructure. There are no halal certified commercial scale poultry and livestock raisers

in the province. There is low quality of corn products from the coastal areas of Lanao del

Sur due to poor post harvest facilities. Although several business establishments exist

in the province, only few are registered due to the absence of investment programs and

incentives. Despite endowments in the tourism sector, there is no Provincial Tourism

Office. Due to the deregulation of Lake Lanao by the NPC structures, the level of aquatic

production has dramatically decreased. The illegal fishing in the Illana Bay has also

contributed to the decline of fish catch in the fishing grounds of the municipalities along

the coastal area.

Social:

About 50% of households have no access to safe drinking water while 75% have

no access to sanitary toilets. The quality of education in the province is low due to

insufficiency of classrooms, teachers, furnishings and teaching materials. In addition,

halal technology courses are not integrated in the curriculum of the State Colleges and

University (SCUs) in the province.

Infrastructure Sector:

There are unpaved road networks connecting municipalities to barangays that

support inter-trading. The following represents the road condition in the province:

(paved/concrete-81.234 km or 11%, graveled-321.087 km or 44%, unpaved/dirt road-

327.537 km or 45%). Finally, there are no halal infra-support facilities such as Halal

slaughter houses and laboratories managed by experts.

Laws, Rules and Regulations:

There is insufficient information campaign on Laws and Issuances concerning

Halal Food Industry Program as well as non-enforcement of Laws concerning undue

slaughtering of animals in the province.

Governance / Institutions:

There is lack of LGU motivation to fully support the Halal Food Industry Program

as well as of local laws, rules and regulations on promotion, development and utilization

of halal food and non food products.



16

Development Administration:

The allotment to Halal Food Industry Program is not specified in the

Development Fund for the CDP-ELA of the Province and in the City of Marawi.

In addition, there are no policies, rules and regulations advocating halal products

consumption and utilization. Finally, the people are not aware on halal food and non-

food products and services due to the absence of LGU Halal Development Plans.

2.2 External Analysis (Annex 2.2)

2.2.1 Opportunities

Location/Trading Partners:

Iligan City, about 36 kilometers away from Marawi City, is a potential market for

halal food and non-food products and one of the sources of basic commodities of the

province of Lanao del Sur and Marawi City. Lanao del Norte, the nearest neighboring

province of Lanao del Sur, is a source of various agri-based halal products in Lanao del

Sur and Marawi City. Moreover, Cagayan de Oro City, about 118 kilometers away from

the province of Lanao del Sur and the province of Maguindanao, 150 kilometers from

Marawi City, are potential markets for the halal food and non-food products from the

province.

Cotabato City is the center of trade and commerce in the ARMM where the seat

of the ARMM government is located. Cotabato City is also the supplier of some staple

foods patronized by the local markets in Lanao del Sur and Marawi City and a potential

market of halal products from the province.

Economy:

Iligan City is the drop-off zone of various agricultural products coming from some

municipalities in Misamis Oriental, Lanao del Norte and the Northern municipalities of

Lanao del Sur, including the City of Marawi. These products are corn, palay, copra and

its by-products. This is due to the existence of the coconut-mill companies like GRANEX

and ILICOCO and the Swift Corporation (poultry processing facility) in Iligan City.

NorMinVeggies of Cagayan de Oro City is an exporter and wholesaler of the

different kinds of agricultural products especially vegetables and spices like ginger and

white scallion. It is a potential market for agricultural products coming from Lanao del

Sur. Lamsan Trading of Maguindanao is the drop-off point of corn produce coming from

the coastal areas of Lanao del Sur.



17

Infrastructure:

The road network between Iligan City and Marawi City is accessible and the

seaport is available and accessible all the time. The paved road network and the

presence of the Baloi Airport and Kolambugan seaport, located in the province of Lanao

del Norte, also serve as gateways for both agricultural and industrial products from

Lanao del Sur and vice versa. The sea port in Iligan City serves as one of the points of

entry and exit of business traders and investors from the province of Lanao del Sur.

Cagayan de Oro City has a paved road network to Marawi City. In addition,

Cagayan de Oro Seaport and Cagayan de Oro Airport provide continuous mobility

support to the general public. Maguindanao and Cotabato City on the south have

accessible road networks and the presence of Awang Airport and Polloc Seaport.

Communication facilities are available in all these neighboring cities and

provinces that support interaction with the residents in Marawi City and some

municipalities in the province of Lanao del Sur like the two-way radio and the wireless

mobile phones. The availability of communication facilities in these neighboring cities

and provinces such as SMART, GLOBE, Sun Cellular, MATELCO and ABS-CBN in

Iligan City may be utilized by Lanao del Sur in promoting its halal industry.

2.2.2 Threats

Location/Trading Partners:

Potential competition may arise with Iligan City, Lanao del Norte and Cotabato

City in the development, production and marketing of halal products and other consumer

goods from Lanao del Sur. The cost of transporting halal products from Marawi City and

Lanao del Sur to Cagayan de Oro City is considerably high that can influence the price

level of halal products.

Economy:

Coconut producers from Lanao del Sur continue to avail of the facilities of

coconut processing plant in Iligan City. The price of copra and its by-products had been

adversely affected by the absence of similar facilities in Lanao del Sur. The

NorminVeggies is recognized as a large-scale supplier of agricultural products in the

northern Mindanao whose products are properly packaged, preserved and taken care of

by experts.



18

Infrastructure:

Poor drainage maintenance in the barangays of Tubod and Nunukan

often cause flash floods resulting to delay in the transportation and damage of

purchased goods from Iligan City.

The absence of commercial centers such as malls and one-stop-shops in Lanao

del Sur forces the constituents to shop in Iligan City or Cagayan de Oro City resulting to

cash outflow than inflow as well as high cost of transportation due to considerable

distance from Marawi City. In addition, some sections of the Narciso Ramos Highway

going to Maguindanao need rehabilitation to facilitate the transport of people and

cargoes.

There is perceived reluctance among telecommunication companies to invest in

Marawi City and Lanao del Sur because of the unstable peace and order situation in

the area.

2.3 Problem Analysis 2.3.1 No locally produced halal certified food and non-food products in the local

market (Figure 2.1)

The following factors contribute severely to this problem: no unified efforts to

pursue the development of the halal food industry; no investors and entrepreneurs

willing to risk investments; absence of livestock and poultry raisers; and, poor advocacy

on halal.

The underlying causes of these factors are the non-integration of the halal food

industry program into the development plan of the province and Marawi City. There is no

sustained production of raw materials for the halal food industry and that products being

currently produced do not conform to the Certified Halal Product Quality Standards.

There is also poor coordination among stakeholders pushing for the development of the

halal food industry.

Moreover, there are no laws or ordinances that were passed in support of the

halal food industry; inadequate facilities for the halal program; no interested funding

institution for halal investments; and abnormal peace and order condition which

hampered the development of halal food industry in the province. There is no identified

halal production zone in the province. To date, the composition of the Provincial Halal

Certifying Board has not been completed. All these issues and concerns contributed to

this core problem.



19

2.3.2 Lack of knowledge of halal compliant modern agriculture and aquaculture

technology (Figure 2.2)

The primary cause of this problem is the adherence of the people to traditional

values and practices of agricultural production by applying traditional practices in farming

instead of adopting halal compliant modern technology. Inadequate capability building

introduced to farmers and fisher folks in the province and the absence of organized

producers are also among the factors that hinder the adoption of modern technology of

farming and fishing. Contributory factors to these are insufficient financial support from

the government; insufficient information, education campaign materials; insufficient

actual demo on farming and livestock raising and inadequate farm and livestock inputs.

All these factors resulted to low supply of but greater demand for agricultural products.

2.3.3 Poor accessibility of some municipalities (Figure 2.3)

This problem exists especially in the hinterland municipalities due to the following

causes: lack of telecommunication system, impassable road network and unstable

peace and order. Other contributing factors are poor maintenance and frequent power

interruption, presence of lawless elements and rampant political disputes.

The factors mentioned cause the severity of the problem and resulted to several

negative effects such as limited linkages with prospected investors, high cost of

transportation and high crime rate. This problem is felt by the populace because of the

very high prices of basic commodities in these affected municipalities. Due to the

difficulty to transport products, some farmers are discouraged to continue their farming

activities. Also the declining production of agricultural commodities resulted to low

household income and hesitance of investors to invest on halal food industry in these

municipalities.

Chapter 3

Development Framework, Vision, Goals and Objectives

3.1 Development Framework

This Plan on the development of the Halal Food Industry in the province shall

serve as ―one of the road maps to guide‖ the resolution of problems that are related to

the halal food industry and to the realization of the prospects for the growth and

development of this industry in the ARMM. The following characterizes the framework for

the development of the halal food industry in the region:

a) Comprehensive Situational Analysis - The results of the situational analysis pose

two (2) related challenges, namely: (a) the imperative to address weaknesses

and threats that decelerate if not deter socio-economic growth and development

in the province and (b) the option to use the identified strengths and

opportunities to improve the quality of life of the populace. The analysis of the

problems confronting the halal food industry lays the foundation for the future

direction of the industry in the ARMM.

b) Shared Vision and Goals - The shared vision and set of common goals to be

pursued reflects a prevailing sentiment that there are numerous available socio-

economic prospects for the halal food industry within and outside the province.

The scenario at the end of the plan period is seen towards the transformation of

the halal food industry from one that is virtually non-existing to one that catalyzes

the development process in the province.

c) Realistic Objectives and Targets and Doable Strategies and Programs and

Projects - The objectives to be attained indicate acceptance of the challenge to

address the problems confronting the halal food industry in the province. These

objectives are likewise aimed at contributing to the achievement of the common

set of goals and eventually, to the realization of the shared vision.

The results of the situational analysis are the bases in setting the key targets in

this Plan. These targets are supportive of the scenario envisioned for the

businesses and enterprises that are considered key players in the halal food

industry.

The strategies complement the ―means‖ identified to achieve the objectives that

shall address the core problems of the halal food industry. The corresponding

programs and projects represent the package of solutions to stimulate productive

and efficient use of available resources in the region that can contribute to the

development of the halal food industry.



24

d) Financial, Institutional and other Support Mechanisms, Plans and Systems - The

magnitude of the investment requirements for the implementation of the identified

programs and projects in the province is considerably huge. The accompanying

resource generation plan attempts to ensure a higher chance to implement

critical programs and projects whose funding is yet unavailable.

The institutional structure that assumes responsibility for the approval process

leading to the implementation of this Plan ensures ownership and accountability among

the stakeholders not just for program and project implementation but for fund generation,

communication and advocacy and monitoring and evaluation.

3.2 Vision

By 2020 and beyond, the ARMM as the lead region in the production, processing

and marketing of globally competitive halal products and services in the Philippines

consistent with a transparent, responsive governance and empowered community

enjoying preserved culture, sustainable and ecologically balanced environment and

good quality of life.

3.3 Goal Statements

a) To promote the development of the halal industry in the region.

b) To adopt and utilize appropriate modern halal technologies.

c) To sustain a policy environment conducive to a transparent and responsive

governance.

d) To religiously adhere with the value of the region’s culture to wards halal industry

development.

e) To strengthen the participation of the stakeholders in the production, processing

and marketing in the halal food industry development.

f) To harmonize the halal food industry development with the environmental

principles on ecological balance and sustainable development.

g) To establish a niche in the global market for halal food products and related

services

3.4 Objectives

3.4.1 Objective No. 1: Halal Certified Food and Non-Food being produced in the

local Market (Figure 3.1)

This will address the problem on the absence of halal certified food and non-food

products in the local market. Consequently, the realization of this objective will result to

increase in household income, increase in the revenues for the Local Government Units

(LGUs) and increase in employment rate in the province. Furthermore, there will be



25

increase in the support for investors as well as the availability of sufficient supplies of

raw materials and finished products necessary for the halal industry.

3.4.2 Objective No. 2: Halal Compliant Modern Agriculture and Aquaculture

Technology Being Adopted (Figure 3.2)

This objective will solve the problem on poor and traditional methods of farming

adopted in the province through the introduction of halal compliant modern agriculture

and aquaculture technology. Strong support from local executives is necessary because

of the need to organize the producers, provide adequate capability building for the

concerned stakeholders, sufficient information education campaign, sufficient agri-

fishery raw materials and most importantly the peoples’ acceptance of the modern

agricultural, livestock and aquaculture technology. All these means will result to sufficient

supply of halal agri-fisheries products, more staple food produced, higher income,

increase LGUs revenues and eventually lead to improved quality of life.

3.4.3 Objective No. 3: Improved Accessibility of Municipalities (Figure 3.3)

Some municipalities in the province of Lanao del Sur are not accessible to

transportation. Several factors such as family feuds and political disputes hinder the

improvement and accessibility in these municipalities. The attainment of this objective

will stabilize the peace and order condition in these municipalities and consequently,

there will be proper maintenance, rehabilitation, and accessible roads as well as

presence of telecommunications and improved power supply. All these will enhance

linkages with business sector and other stakeholders, thus, encouraging investors to

invest in the halal industry of the province.

5.2 Resource Generation and Mobilization Scheme

The dependency on Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA) is one of the common

identified major problems in every LGU particularly in the ARMM. The annual IRA of the

province is very limited and inadequate to finance even the high speed projects such as

infrastructures that cost millions of pesos. For these reasons, external sources are

necessary and linkages with both national and international donor agencies are essential

to augment available resources at the local level. Some of the recommended resource

generation and mobilization approaches to support the implementation of unfunded

programs and projects are indicated in Table 5.9. These strategies and activities shall

generally apply during the implementation of the plan.

5.3 Institutional Mechanism

This institutional mechanism will ensure the institutionalization of the Halal

Industry Development in the province. The establishment of lucid horizontal and vertical

linkages between and among the key players of the halal industry will help the plan

implementers to promote collaboration, coordination and complementation of the

initiatives among implementing agencies, institutions and partners to ensure success of

the halal industry development programs and projects. A well-defined decision level will

also help facilitate efficient and effective project management and resource allocation

and mobilization.

The Provincial Halal Food Industry Development will be managed, implemented

and monitored by the Provincial Government through the Provincial Halal Technical

Working Group (PH-TWG) created by virtue of the Executive Order No. 16, series of

2009, which consist of the Executive Committee (ExeCom), and its HID-Sub-sectors

composed of the Provincial Line Agencies.

The management of the Halal Industry Development is vested with the ExeCom

chaired by the Provincial Governor with the Provincial Directors of Department of

Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF) and Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) as vice

chairmen.

The ExeCom has the following responsibilities: a. Provide policy direction and guidance to the Technical Working Group

(TWG);

b. Formulate policies, plans, programs and projects relative to Halal Industry

Development promotion and implementation;

c. Liaised with the executive and legislative bodies of the province to ensure

that all technical and administrative matters supportive of the Halal Industry

Development strategy be put in place; and

d. Appraises the Regional Governor, REDPB Chairman and other competent

authority on action needed by ExeCom and PIA-TWG pertaining to the Halal

Industry Development.

The Provincial Halal Operations Group (PHOG) coordinates with the sub-sectors

on Halal Standard/Trade Laws, Production, Promotion and Marketing and Research and

Development.



55

Specifically, the PHOG will perform the following responsibilities for the

development of the halal industry in the province:

a. Coordinates with the concerned provincial line agencies, LGUs and the

private sectors pertaining to the development of the Halal Industry

Development;

b. Coordinates the meeting of the ExeCom and PIA-TWG and the preparation of

agenda and proceedings of meetings;

c. Coordinates the different sub-sectors secretariat in the preparation of HID

Annual Action Plan, Work and Financial Plan and related plans and policies

and oversees its implementation;

d. Prepares policies, plans, programs and projects in support to the Halal

Industry Development and submit the same to the ExeCom for

consideration;

e. Coordinates the formulations of plans, policies, programs and projects that

conforms to Halal Industries structures;

f. Recommends necessary action relative to halal matters for consideration by

the ExeCom; and

g. Prepares regular reports and updates of the Halal Industry Development and

submit the same to the ExeCom for their information and action.

In the implementation of the Halal Industry Plan, the institutional mechanism

such as the Provincial Inter-Agency-TWG (PIA-TWG) will be established for the

planning, coordination, and implementation of the Plan. This mechanism will form part of

the existing provincial structure to serve as the Institutional Mechanism for the over-all

management of the Provincial Halal Industry Development Plan.

5.5 Monitoring and Evaluation

The Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) System of the Halal Food Industry Master

Plan intends to observe and record sub-project processes, activities and outputs and to

determine whether the impact, development objectives and physical targets of the Halal

Food Industry Master Plan are achieved. The objective of the M&E for the Halal Food

Industry Development Plan is to determine whether planned development objectives,

benefits and impacts are realized.

This section includes a listing of key performance indicators which are

parameters for measuring the accomplishment or achievement of projects based on

defined goals, developmental objectives and targets. For M&E purposes, the key

performance indicators will have to be further defined in terms of specific baseline data

requirements. Hence, in developing the indicator system there is a need to make it a

participatory process for all stakeholders.

The first level of indicators shall compose the Operational indicators, measured

in the short term, i.e. measuring the process and outcome of converting inputs

(resources and activities) into outputs. Operational indicators are based on planned

activities and outputs for a set period of time. Information generated at the Operational

level is used for local level planning and decision making, and as input to strategic

planning. The second level is the Strategic indicators that measure benefits (effects and

impact) intended for the beneficiaries over the whole life of the Halal Food Industry

Master Plan.

A Manual of Operation of the M&E System of the Halal Food Industry Master

Plan shall be prepared through the initiative of the members identified in the institutional

mechanism. The refinement or finalization of the outcome and impact indicators as well

as its other aspects such as data collection and data sources, reporting system,

budgetary requirements and defining M&E stakeholders and their respective

responsibilities shall be assigned to the body or technical working group that shall be

formed immediately for the purpose of coming up with a detailed M&E system Manual of

Operations.

Hereunder are the key performance indicators vis-à-vis the goals and

development objectives of the Halal Food Industry Development Plan by the province.

Annex 2.2: External Analysis

Opportunities Threats

Location of Lanao del Sur vis its Trading

Partners

Iligan City - 36 kilometers away from

Marawi City; potential market for halal

products and sources of some basic

commodities of Lanao del Sur; sea ports

in Iligan City is also a possible point of

entry and exit for halal products from

Lanao del Sur and Marawi City

Lanao del Norte – Potential source of

some agri-base halal products from

Lanao del Sur

Cagayan de Oro City – 118 kilometers

away from the Province of Lanao del Sur

is a potential market of halal food

products and gate way to other regions;

with seaport and airport

Maguindanao – 150 kilometers from

Marawi City is likewise a potential

market of halal food products and gate

way to other regions due to the existence

of seaport and airport, namely: the Polloc

Seaport and Awang Airport

Cotabato City – supplier of staple food

and also a potential market of halal

products

Location of Lanao del Sur vis its Trading

Partners

Iligan City and Lanao del Norte –

competitors in the development,

production and marketing of halal and

other consumer goods from Lanao del Sur

Cagayan de Oro City – The cost of

transporting halal products from Marawi

City and Lanao del Sur is considerably

high

Some sections of Narciso Ramos Highway

going to Shariff Kabunsuan and

Maguindanao need rehabilitation to

facilitate flow of people and goods

Cotabato City – competitor in the

development, production and marketing of

halal and other consumer goods

Economy

Iligan City - is the drop-off zone for

various agricultural products coming from

Bukidnon and Misamis Oriental and

northern municipalities of Lanao del Sur;

these products are copra and its by-

products; Coco Mill Companies, like

GRANEX and Swift Corporation (Poultry

processing facility) are situated in Iligan

City

The NorMinVeggies of Cagayan de Oro

City is an exporter of different agricultural

products, such as vegetables, ginger,

white scallion and other spices

Lamsan Trading of Maguindanao is the

dropping point of corn coming from the

coastal areas of Lanao del Sur

Economy

Iligan City – the absence of coconut

processing plant in Lanao del Sur leaves

no choice for the Maranaos except to sell

their products in Iligan City, thus allowing

the buyers to control prices of agricultural

products specially copra and its by

products

The NorminVeggies is a bigtime supplier

of agricultural products in the northern

Mindanao whose products are properly

packaged, preserved and taken care of

by experts



90

Infrastructure

Iligan City - accessible road network

between Iligan City and Marawi City; sea

port in Iligan City

Lanao del Norte – paved road network;

presence of Balo-i Airport, sea port at

Kulambogan, Lanao del Norte

Cagayan de Oro City - Presence of

paved road network to Cagayan de Oro

City; presence of seaport and airport

Maguindanao - Presence of accessible

road network; location of Awang Airport and Polloc Port

Cotabato City - Presence of road network and communication facilities

Infrastructure

Poor drainage maintenance caused flash

floods in the barangays of Tubod and

Nunukan resulting to delay and damage of

purchased goods from Iligan City

Non-functional Balo-i Airport

The absence of commercial centers such

as malls and one-stop-shops in Lanao del

Sur forces the constituents to shop at

Iligan City or Cagayan de Oro City

resulting to more cash outflow than inflow

High cost of transportation due to

considerable distance from Marawi City

Others

Presence of communication facilities in

the neighboring cities and provinces such

as SMART, GLOBE, MATELCO and

ABS-CBN in Iligan City

Others

Reluctance of telecommunication

companies to locate and invest in the City

of Marawi and Lanao del Sur
