Tambacan is one of the 44 barangays of Iligan, a city about southeast of Manila in the Philippines. It is south of Iligan's central business district, Barangay Poblacion. Tambacan is bounded by Barangay Poblacion and Tubod River on the north, Iligan Bay on the west, Barangay Mahayahay and Tubod River on the east and Barangay Tubod on the south and southwest. Barangay Tambacan was created on September 5, 1966 by virtue of Resolution 232 series of 1966 which eventually approved as City Ordinance 280. It has a total land area of about and is subdivided into 12 puroks.〔(Iligan barangay data )〕 As of Aug 1, 2007, Barangay Tambacan has a population of 13,906.〔(August 2007 barangays of Iligan population )〕 Accessible from the north through Barangay Poblacion by the Tambacan Bridge and from the south through Tubod by the Tambacan Highway, Barangay Tambacan is becoming a major bypass route from Iligan's main thoroughfares. Fishing is the source of occupation for most residents not only due to its proximity to the Iligan Bay but also because Iligan's major dropping point for fish trades from the major fish ports in Mindanao is located in one of its puroks which is Iligan-LGU's fish dropping facility called locally as "Bagsakan". The proximity of the fish marketplace is an advantage for traders residing at the barangay to Iligan's two major marketplaces which are the Pala-o Supermaket and Iligan's Wet Market, formerly the Old Public Market. Tambacan has two schools: Tambacan Elementary School for grades one through six and the Iligan City National High School (ICNHS) Tambacan Campus, also known as the ICNHS Annex (Tambacan), which also serves the southern barangays of Iligan. The barangay is in a low-lying area,〔("Villagers flee from floods in Cagayan de Oro, Iligan". ''GMA News'', January 3, 2009 ) Retrieved 2012-04-12.〕 and has been affected by flooding in recent years.〔(JC Bello Ruiz, "6,000 houses for 'Sendong' victims". ''Manila Bulletin'', January 11, 2012 ) Retrieved 2012-04-12.〕 ==Barangay Captains of Barangay Tambacan== Barrio Tambacan: Before 1966 Barangay Tambacan was founded as a barangay on September 5, 1966 by virtue of Resolution No. 202 which became City Ordinance 280, the previous leaders of the barangay, which may be called " barangay chairman" in some areas of the country, are called "tinyente del barrio", which is Spanish term for "lieutenant of the barrio"; also by how it is meant, connoted a person as a leader of a local barrio who were non-elected officials of the time as Tambacan did not yet have the capacity to choose a leader that it may legally called a voted leader. And so these leaders who became "tinyente del barrio" were appointed individuals which is close to how we choose our very "purok" leaders or presidents we have today. As a good precursor of chronological history of people who became barangay captain of Tambacan, a personal research was done to aid in gathering the utmost data for this. Mr. Chokong Viajante was asked by Mrs. Josephine Jariol who happens to know the bona fide Tambacanons who know the history of the barangay. According to the list provided by Mr. Chokong Viajante, the "tinyente del barrios" of Barangay Tambacan were Vidal Orellana, Mr. Teofilo Madolin Demetrio Cabante, Felicidad Ybañez, and, the husband of Felicidad Ybañez, Mr. Deogracia Ybañez. 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「Tambacan, Iligan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
