Philippine Myth on Mango Fruits
Philippine succulent mangoes are among the well patronized products in the international market since early times. One of the Philippine myths on the mango fruit goes this way.
Long time ago, so this Philippine myth goes, in a wooden villa deep in the forest was a beautiful lady. An only daughter of an old, old couple, they wanted her married as soon as possible. They feared dying without seeing her married. This Philippine myth says Pangga was her name, meaning “object of love” in the vernacular. Aside from her arresting natural pulchritude, she was very industrious, kind, and smart with rustic wisdom. Moreover, Pangga knew a lot of trade skills that had earned her quite a bit of money. Thus, her parents wanted nothing but the best man for her.
But Pangga fell for a local poet, a professional dreamer. He was known in the village as a desperate writer whose works of poetry made meager money. This Philippine myth continues that Manong, the dreamer, lived in the fields and slept in mangers. He was the town’s vagrant. But one thing about him; he had a knack for speaking sweet nothings, a full-pledged sweet talker who could promise the sun, moon and stars to the one his eyes beheld. Girls in town went crazy for him (though they never bought his poems) but his eyes were only for Pangga.
His sweet nothings never fooled old folks, though. His own parents, when still alive, often remarked “Please cut out the sweet pleasantries!” when he was at his verbal talent again. In the vernacular the remark went “Manong magtigil ka nga!” So, as this Philippine myth goes, they gave him the nickname Manong.
Pangga’s parents never bought Manong’s promises of bringing down the sun and moon to shine on their forest-dimmed bungalow and other sweet nothings. “You’re always saying that sun-moon conversation of yours. That’s all you know!” Pangga’s parents mocked him. But Manong and Pangga sought to stubbornly keep their love vows till their dying day. Then, the Philippine myth says, one day they disappeared in the woods.
The Philippine myth ends with a discovery of a new kind of tree. Its fruit was a bit crescent-shaped like the moon, yellow like the sun, and sweet like Manong’s tongue. It was rich in nutrition as Pangga’s multi-faceted genius. In time it was called “Manga,” a mix of their names, and today’s vernacular for mango.
The Philippine myth on mango fruits is a local version of Romeo and Juliet but which went sweeter as to create a sweet offspring—the mango fruit.

Puerto Princesa Personal Blogs
Eco-tourism has been the new wave or the new culture that the Philippine government has trying to imbibe in restoring and maintaining world-class tourism. Nonetheless, before it has been totally implemented in the department of tourism, as far as I can remember, the province of Palawan already reflected this kind of culture and attitude in making their place locally and globally competitive.
‘Princes of Ports’
That has been the literal Spanish translation of Puerto Princesa according to the official website of Puerto Princesa City. Legend has it that there was once a princess with rare beauty roamed around the bay during night time, thus the name ‘Puerto Princesa’ was attributed. Other stories claimed, however, the reason for its name was because of the place’s geographic value as a harbor or port, being naturally sheltered by unfriendly weather the whole year and a suitable deepness for those ships to anchor during that time and thus the description ‘Princes of Ports’ was given (in Spanish, ‘Puerto Princesa’).
Love at ‘First Sight’
I was a first (1st) year in high school student when I was able to be at Palawan. It was our school’s annual Summer Camping that time and I was so excited because that was the first time I boarded a ‘real’ big ferry. It was definitely ‘Super’! I thought I did not need any medication for sea sickness, but when the boat started to move away from Manila port, I seemed that my world was literally turning upside-down. I really thanked God for the fast relief that time. It took almost half a day before we found our vessel in the ports of Palawan and indeed it was so different from the port where we came from.
During that time, we were surprised that there were a lot of divers making a living in the port itself. What made us be amazed of these divers was the fact that they were swimming in the harbor and we could never have had imagined it could possibly happen at the ports of Manila! These divers made a living by amusing tourists that if one of us throws a coin to the sea they would try to ‘dive’ for it!
When we arrived at Puerto Princesa City, we were welcomed by the bishop of Palawan (a proud alumnus of our institution) and we stayed at his place for the next day before totally camping out at Mount St. Paul. As first timers, many of us prepared for the camp and at the same time explored the city as we roamed around the place.
It was in Puerto Princesa that I first saw a signed board that prohibited ‘spitting’ in the city streets. Natives were so disciplined and the whole place was definitely a paradise! It was incomparable to the busy streets of Metro Manila. During that time, my classmates and I were talking about the place’s ‘charisma’ as if the city placed us under its spell and all we could say were words of admiration and wonder. The only regret that we had was we never had that much documentation as per taking some photos of the place. It was absolutely a very wonderful experience for us!
Camping at Mount St.Paul
Palawan was not yet through in giving us reasons to admire her wonders. When we went to Mount St. Paul, our Boy Scout master and leaders told us that we were going to hike to reach our campsite. I was very excited that time because, again, it would be my first time to really get ‘in touch’ with Mother Nature, as I hiked through Mount St. Paul. It was tiring and at the same time memorable experience for me. We stayed for almost five (5) days in camp, but it was indeed unforgettable. In those five (5) short days, we were able to appreciate sky or star gazing because the place was really away from the usual city lights. That was the time I saw a ‘shooting star’ and it was amazing! We never missed during our stay hiking our way to a very good swimming spot where we swam with big tides to our delight!
The Monkey Trail and the famous Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park
The camp was designed for us to know and to be trained in the ways of a Boy Scout. For these reason, we were never treated as a ‘tourist’ that everything was available in one click. Nonetheless, it could be arranged though, if you visit the place as a tourist. For us, we were Boy Scouts to be trained and at the same time learn to appreciate nature. In order for us to enjoy the wonders of the underground river of Palawan, we needed to take a hike again through what they called that time the ‘Monkey Trail’. Living by the given name, the trail was indeed for monkeys freely roaming around because without the structure in which we were threading, we cannot be at the underground river, and only monkeys could jump from one rock to another to get to the other side. There was another way though, and it was through the bay boarding a small motor boat.
We were all exhausted when we reached the entrance of the underground river, but after a hearty lunch and few time of rest, again, we were back in action. After gearing up some safety paraphernalia, we boarded a small motor craft and entered our way through the cave’s opening. As soon as darkness enveloped us, the strong carbide lamps by the tourist guide illuminated a particular spot in the cave as they explained its significance. The most remarkable sight I had in this place was when the guide explained some sort of ‘cathedral’ or ‘church’ inside the river as they attributed religious figures to stalactite and stalagmite formations.
Before we left our campsite, we were given a sort of talk or conversation about caring for Mother Nature. It was then that I realized that even in my young age, I could contribute and do my share preserving the wonders of nature. I also realized that it was really possible for us to make a difference in caring for Mother Nature. As a final note, the official caretaker of Mount St. Paul prophesized that Palawan would be known because of the wonders Mother Nature had bestowed for them and it was up for the locals how they would act in order for them to thank Mother Nature by caring these wonders. Indeed, the custodian was correct Puerto Princesa or Palawan has been truly a ‘City in the Forest and Sports Tourism Capital of the Philippines’!
The Myth about the Shining Moon
Ever wondered why there has to be a moon at night? Aren’t stars enough to light the skies at night? And with today’s technology that can light up whole cities, is there still need for a moon? This Philippine myth tells us why it was decided one time that there ought to be a moon at night.
One day, this myth says, the moon had no light of any kind. It was a silent dark object that orbited the Earth. It looked for ways to be of use to the inhabitants of the earth, but to no avail. At times it even blocked the sun entirely from the planet, frustrating the sun with its job of lighting up the world. The myth says that the sun complained that it could only light up a side of the earth at a time, and the moon even sometimes prevented it from doing this.
But the moon was not abashed. It continued to find a way to serve planet earth. The myth continues that one day, the moon noticed that the sun was very lonely. She wondered and approached the sun to ask what was the matter. The myth says the sun told her that he was again about to go to the other side of the Earth because the people there also needed its heat and light. The myth says the sun worried about the people on the opposite side who would have to suffer a day of darkness again. “If only I could shine both sides!” the sun said wistfully. He didn’t want to leave the other side without light.
So, feeling desperate, the myth says the moon asked the sun if it could be of any help. The sun regarded the moon for a while and noticed that it had rocks and metals about it. The sun, says the myth, tried to shoot a ray of light on the moon and it bounced on the planet Mars. The light reflected was enough to make Mars squint its eyes. So the sun had an idea. According to the myth, it told the moon that it would give part of its light so the moon could shine on a half of the world, and then sun on the other.
This Philippine myth on the shining moon at night talks of a dark moon going around the Earth, eager to be of service to it. A shared light from the sun gave it its meaning.

Tagbilaran Personal Blogs
I was not feeling well the first (1st) time I traveled at the island of Bohol particularly at Tagbilaran City. One of my siblings was actually assigned at Tagbilaran City for almost six (6) months regarding a project. That was the reason why I was almost bedridden and just stayed at my brother’s apartment during my entire stay in Bohol Island. Nonetheless, I have a hobby or a workaround whenever I would be stuck in a certain place. I would always look for something to read about information about the place itself. It was really automatic for me since high school when I started to be away from my parents more often than not. Of course the first (1st) place I read about was all about Makati. After that, whenever we traveled to Tagaytay City, Batangas or at any place, I made sure I was well-versed regarding some ‘info-stuffs’ in my head.
Just ran out of luck: Reviewing History through the Master
I tried to look for a short of a leaflet, a short manual or a tourist handout about Bohol Island in my bag and I was not able to get one. I just remembered that I must had left it with my food wrappers and trashes then threw or accidentally left it in the ferry (for the record, I would rather take a ferry boat than to have a short flight via airplane. Life is a journey indeed!) I asked my brother’s housekeeper if they there were books to read and check. She told me that it seemed that the last occupants left elementary or high school books and they were kept in the cabinet. My boredom gave me a bit of a lift and motivation to check those books. ‘Eureka!’ I said when I found an old edition high school history book written none other than Gregorio F. Zaide-I called this guy a master because ever since I started studying history formally, his name was always under the line ‘author’. I checked the table of contents and browsed ahead to the Bohol Island section.
A bit of a history
According to what was written or published, Tagbilaran has been considered as the ‘Bool Kingdom’ way back the fifteenth (15th) century. The name ‘Tagbilaran’, however, is still indistinct to many historians until this date. They said that the first (1st) name of Tagbilaran is ‘Tinabilan’ which means covered or screened since the place was protected on the southwest by the island of Panglao. Other tradition or ‘rendition’ (I said), the term ‘Tagbilaran’ was etymologically derived from ‘Tagubilaan’-coined from two local dialect word ‘Tagu’ (meaning ‘hide’ or ‘to hide’) and ‘Bilaan’ (a known marauder Muslim tribe). Thus the word ‘Tinabilan’: a place hidden or unconcealed from the looting Muslims. Inflexion of the word to ‘Tagbilaran’ could have been derived from the Spanish conquerors.
In the Beginning
Tagbilaran started as small settlements of locals who vowed to the influence or spirit of ‘Anito’ (pagan idol or god) in the lower Mansasa. The first (1st) locals of the place already practiced burying the dead as archeologists found a sort of burial grounds. The place had also established trade with Indonesia, Malaysia and China. When the Spaniards came, the establishment of a more civilized and advanced community was made possible at Sitio Ubos. To fully establish a government, the Spaniards built a cathedral.
The Blood Compact: Sandugo
All of a sudden, I experienced a bit of goose bumps for some reason (maybe because of the medicine I took) Nonetheless, it seemed that I glanced a certain information regarding the place about a significant historical event that took place in this very place. Ever since I had read about ‘Sandugo’ or the famous ‘Blood Compact’, I feared about the pain that it inflicted to the participants. Little less I that I was aware of that it was really a very significant historical event and it marked a treaty or a sort of diplomacy between two nations. As soon as I read it, I called my brother and told him to arrange a trip to the place of ‘Sandugo’ as soon I felt better.
History is definitely a sort of a ‘spirit’ according to a modern philosopher. History is all about experiences, events and learning from these things. Tagbiliran City had made its choice since time immemorial to be amicable to others as per the symbolization of the Blood Compact or ‘Sandugo’. History, as always, would be a key in making a place a symbol of significance.

Puerto Galera Transportation
A wide array of Puerto Galera transportation options makes your trip to this tourist destination worthwhile and possible. Whether land, air, or sea, it is unlikely that you will not be able to find a mode of transport where you are most comfortable at.
Through air transport, the best option is to make your way to San Jose in Occidental Mindoro as there are no direct connections to Puerto Galera itself. However, all flights come from Manila. From San Jose, you need to go on a lengthy trip by bus or car rentals going to Puerto Galera.
Originally a US Air Force base, McGuire Field was converted for public use. Asian Spirit is the major carrier having daily flights going back and forth from Manila. Before, Philippine Airlines and Air Philippines had frequent flights to McGuire Field. The airport is very small and provides basic services such as toilets, telephones, and a modest information counter. You will need to make your way to the bus terminal in San Jose and make arrangements for public transport going to Puerto Galera there.
If you intend to tour the entire island, that is the only time air transportation becomes practical. Otherwise, taking the land-and-sea route is the most efficient and more preferred option.
The most convenient Puerto Galera transportation from Manila is the land-and-sea route coming from Pasay City. The buses frequently departs from the terminal and arrives at Batangas Pier in approximately three hours. However, you need to make sure that the bus is enroute to the pier and not the Batangas Bus Terminal.
From Batangas, you can reach the beaches of Puerto Galera by taking a boat trip. There is a wide array of boats from simple outriggers to state-of-the-art air-conditioned ferries. Another option is to hire a car and ride a roll-on/roll-off ferry.
From the island of Mindoro, you can look forward to a reliable public transportation which will take you to Puerto Galera. Chartered bancas will ferry you from Puerto Galera to the different beaches along the coastline. However, as you make a trip to the less prominent areas, transportation becomes limited and needs be arranged on a per-trip basis.
As in other regions in the country, the jeepney is a prominent Puerto Galera transportation. They are available in two sizes and are more popular than buses. They have regular trips from Puerto Galera to other cities on the island.
Tricycle rickshaws are quite popular within the individual towns and resort areas. These cabs are pedaled by drivers who are willing to travel long distance. Likewise, they can be hired on a per hour basis for leisurely sight seeing tours around the island.
These are the Puerto Galera transportation options that can help ensure an enjoyable experience touring this world-class destination.
