I. BRIEF HISTORY:

Long time ago, a group of Spanish Navigator passes the Romblon Channel seeking water
for their drinks. While in the middle of the sea, they saw two high mountains with a river,
where they can drink. They landed in the seashore and they saw an old man catching
shrimps for their viand. The Spanish Navigators ask the old man, “What is the name of
this place?” the old man replied that he doesn’t know. Then he invited the Spaniard to his
house. While in the old man’s house, the visitor saw the old man’s wife pounding rice.
One of the Spaniards asks the old woman “what do you called that wood where you
pound your rice? The old woman replied “LUSONG” and that’s how Barangay Lusong
got its name.

Barangay Lusong is located in the central part of San Agustin. It is bounded on the north
part by Barangay Binonga-an on the south by Brgy. Hinugusan, on the east by Romblon
Pass and the Municipality of San Andres on the west. It has a land total area of 862. 3591
hectares. Its topography is generally hilly and mountainous. Majority of the folks are
farmers and a few are fishermen. Barangay Lusong is divided into four sitios: Centro,
Ilaya, San Roque and Pook.

Barangay Lusong has an overwhelming population of 1,080 of the latest household

survey for the year 2015, of which 543 are males while 537 are females. It has a total
number of 225 households, 31.6% are made up of concrete materials, 36.4% are made of
semi-concrete and 32% are made up of light materials.

II. PROBLEM STATEMENT

Sitio Centro, Barangay Lusong has a lot of activities done every month. On the average, 6
meetings per month and 8 seminars per year are held in the area. Physical fitness
activities are also held once a month, Youth Day is held every quarter, and fiestas are also
held. The problem is that these activities tend to be canceled during the rain. There’s also
the problem of not having enough space for certain events and activities or not having a
proper area for holding activities such as seminars and meetings.

Currently, there is no appropriate area for holding meetings, seminars, general

assemblies, etc. in Sitio Centro, Barangay Lusong. It was determined that there is a need
for a specific building to hold such activities. FDS meetings, Senior Citizen meetings,
Youth Day, Linggo ng Kabataan, and other activities may require a large area to be held.
A building for holding special events, meetings and activities even during rainy days was
deemed necessary. The building will allow events, meetings, and activities to be held
even if it rains. Sufficient space and a more proper venue may also be provided. During
storms, there is a need for evacuation center in Sitio Centro, Barangay Lusong. Currently,
the barangay hall is used as an evacuation center for such cases, but the barangay hall is
too small to accommodate all evacuees. A larger evacuation center is advised to address
this problem.
