UNIT BRIEF HISTORY

CGS ZAMBOANGA DEL SUR Coast Guard Station

Zamboanga Del Sur traces
back its beginning as a former
detachment of CGS
Zamboanga until 01 June 1984
when it was upgraded to a
Class Charlie station. Its first
station headquarters was the
old arastre warehouse at the
port area of Pagadian City with
Pulauan (Dapitan) and
Malangas (Zamboanga del Sur)
as its first detachement.
 On August 1988, due to the
addition of four more detachments
(Margosatubig ZDS; Naga ZDS;
Sindangan ZDN; and Liloy ZDN)
and a substancial increase in the
revenue collections, the station
was again upgraded to a Class
Bravo station. The following year,
it won the much coveted “ Station
of the Year Award for Class Bravo”
and the construction of its present
station building was completed on
November of that same year.
However, when CGS Dapitan was
activated and elevated to a Class
Charlie Station on 23 September
1995, the area of responsibility of
CGS Zamboanga Del Sur was
reduced and the Province of
Zamboanga del Norte is now with
CGS Dapitan.

order at sea by conducting
regular patrols and surveillance for the
safety of navigation of ships, to
