When I first saw Henry’s birth certificate, I was quite surprised with what I read. Nung time na pinanganak sya, that was in the 60s, Caloocan and Malabon were still part of Rizal. Madam Imelda Marcos formed Metro Manila later on kaya kumalas ang towns na to from Rizal.
Actually, hindi unique tong pangyayaring ito. In 1939, President Manuel L. Quezon fulfilled his dreams of building a modern, wholesome place for the working class Filipinos. That was the birth of Quezon City. He made the city “in the image of a garden, a fusion of nature and art�. Ah, kaya pala maganda ang urban planning ng Kyusi – wide avenues, spacious parks, nice government buildings, etc.
Hindi minagic ni Pres. Quezon ang area ng Kyusi. Syempre, kailangan nyang tumapyas ng lupa from other municipalities. Ito yung mga mababait na contributors at ang kanilang contributions:
Caloocan – La Loma, Galas, Sta. mesa Heights, San Jose, balintawak, Kaingin, Besa, Talipapa, San bartolome, Novaliches, Banlat, Pugad Lawin, Kabuyao, pasong Tamo
San Juan – New Manila, Cubao, Frisco, Kamuning, Roxas Dstrict, Camp Crame
Pasig – Ugong Norte, Santolan
Marikina – Diliman, Krus na Ligas, Balara, Varsity Hills
*today is the 127th birth anniversary of President Manuel L. Quezon

Hi!
I'm thinking of writing a book on the history of Caloocan and I came across your blog. I wonder what is your source about the origins of Q.C., specifically, laws which created Q.C.
Thanks a lot!
I got the info on QC from Panorama dated August 2005.
By the way, thanks for visiting my site
