mostly are only commuting. We are kilometres away from the city in order to went to the
city we need L300 and tricycle to give us a lift. Also, some of the residents had
motocycles.

D. Religion

We are Christians. There are different kinds of religion in our barangay but we are all
Christians. Catholics is one of the religions in our barangay that has many members.
Catholics share with other Christians a belief in the divinity of Jesus Christ, the son of
God made man who came to the earth to redeem humanity’s sins through his death and
resurrection. They follow teaching as set out in the New Testament and place their trust
in God’s promise of eternal life with him.

E. Special Food

One of the delicacies of our barangay is the tableas. You can find the tableas
processing center at our barangay. This tableas are being exported to other places.
This is one of the best tableas because it is pure cacao.
