Pandacan is a district in Manila, Philippines known for the Pandacan oil depot. ==Profile== In 2000, Pandacan had a total population of close to 82,194. The original residents of the district are Tagalog migrants from the province of Bulacan. When the district grew and progressed as a manufacturing center for Manila, several ethnic groups from other parts of the country migrated into the district after the Second World War. The district is bounded to the east by the Pasig River, the district of Santa Ana to the southwest Ermita to the east and the district of Paco to the northeast. Socioeconomically, the majority of the residents of Pandacan range from lower- to upper-middle class. Original residents are gainfully employed as blue collar workers in the nearby factories and oil depots, while those in the service sector are generally employed in nearby Makati, the country's central business district. Pandacan was originally established as the industrial center for the city of Manila during the turn of the 20th century. Oil depots which service more than half of the fuel requirement of the country were established along the banks of the Pasig River in the district. Pandacan's western section, along Doctora Paz Mendoza-Guazon Street (formerly called Otis Street) was once a row for manufacturing such as coconut oil processing, rope making, and soda bottling and distribution for Coca-Cola. Pandacan hosts most of the country's auto dealerships and showrooms, such as Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Ford and Isuzu. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pandacan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
