TANGGAPAN NG PUNONG BARANGAY

MENSAHE

Kapayapaan ang Sumaatin!

Oktubre 2010 ng magdesisyon akong lumaban bilang Punong Barangay

subalit ako’y nabigo, labis kong dinamdam ang mga pangyayaring iyon, pero ang

pagkatalo kong iyon ang siya ring nagpatatag sa aking sarili. Lumipas ang

mahabang panahon at ito’y naghilom.

Dumating ang sumunod na eleksyon, Oktubre 2013, lumaban akong muli

at sa pagkakataong ito ay hindi ninyo ako binigo. Bilang ganti ay susuklian ko

ng buong pusong paglilingkod ang ibinigay ninyong pagtitiwala sa akin.

Mga kabarangay, tapos na po ang eleksyon, magkaisa na tayo at

magsama-samang muli upang marating natin ang nag-iisa nating mithiing

“KAUNLARA’Y DADAMHIN NG BUMABANGONG BUHANGIN”.

Maraming Salamat po at nawa’y patnubayan tayo ng Poong Maykapal.

Lubos na Nagpapasalamat,

EMMA V. DE VERA

MENSAHE

Mahalaga ang kamulatan ng mamamayan sa mga impormasyon ukol sa

bawat barangay ng Atimonan. Ang magbigay ng konkreto at angkop na mga

datos ang layunin ng Socio-Economic Profile ng mga Barangay. Ito rin ang

magsisilbing matibay na batayan upang mabalangkas ng Pamahalaang Bayan

ang mga programang pangkaunlaran na ang mamamayan ang higit na

makikinabang.

Ang ating mamamayan ang salamin ng kaunlaran ng bayan kaya ang

progreso ng apatnapu’t dalawang barangay ay pinapahalagahan ng Lokal na

Pamahalaan ng Atimonan. Ang Socio-economic Profile ang testimonya na patuloy

1. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

KASAYSAYAN NG BARANGAY BUHANGIN

Ang nayon o Barangay Buhangin ay natatayo sa dakong silangan ng Bayang

Atimonan. Ito ay may layong anim na kilometro mula sa kabayanan. Dito ay naglalagos ang

Pambansang Lansangan. Ito ay may katamtamang lawak at napapaligiran ng mga bundok

sa dakong habagatan; nayon ng Lumutan sa dakong silangan; dagat ng Lamon Bay sa

dakong amihan at kanluran naman nito ang nasabing Ilog ng Minanukan. Dito ay may

Bahay Nayon, may kapilya na hanggang sa ngayon ay kalapit ng isang progresibong

Paaralang Bayan.

Ang barangay na ito ay kasalukuyang nababahagi sa anim na purok na

pinamamahalaan o pinaglilingkuran ng mga halal na Opisyales ng Barangay.

Ayon sa pananaliksik ang pook na ito ay tinawag na Buhangin sapagkat sa mga

ginawang paghuhukay ng mga taga-nayon sa lupaing kanilang nasaskupan ay puro

buhangin ang kanilang nahuhukay.
