LOST AND FOUND RAFFLESIA

[edit]

In an event similar to the discovery of the "extinct" coelacanth off the coast of South Africa in 1938, a species considered the world's second largest flower previously though to be extinct has been found in a forested area of Northern Mindanao.

Two weeks ago, reports of a strange flower blooming in the mountains of Region 10 reached the Protected Areas and Wildlife Division, Region 10 office (PAWD-10). A team dispatched by Director Malou Clarete verified that the large bloom was indeed that of the Rafflesia schadenbergiana Greppert, named after German botanist Alex Schadenberg who discovered it in Mt. Apo with fellow German Otto Koch in 1882 (The Snows of Mt. Apo, from History Against the Landscape by Miguel A. Bernad, S.J., 1968).

It was the first and last time people would see the giant flower for the next 125 years. At 80 centimeters across, it is considered to be the second largest flower in the world. According to Fr. Bernad's account of the Schadenberg expedition, "We are told that young buds of this plant, growing together on one stem, were found on one occasion to weigh as heavily as a double-barreled gun and six solid bullets. (Bernad, 1968).

The latest sighting is not just of one flower but rather what PAWD-10 calls a "population." It is the only known population existing in the Philippines of R. schadenbergiana that is actively flowering.

The cluster was found in a community-based forestry management (CBFM) area and includes six more flower buds which have not yet bloomed. It could take from 9-10 months after they first appear for buds to bloom. Not all buds bloom into flowers, with many decaying unopened. Too much rain can cause buds to rot, too little cause them to shrivel and dry up.

The first flower which blossomed was measured at 70 centimeters across and has been taken by Dr. Julie Barcelona of the Philippine National Museum to Manila for preservation. Together with the PAWD-10, the National Museum has sat down with the local government where the R. schadenbergiana population is found, the Department of Tourism, DENR and the academe to develop a protection and management plan for the "resurrected species."

"We can still not divulge the exact location of the population at this time pending the declaration of the area as a critical habitat by Environment Sec. Angelo Reyes," Ms. Clarete said. "DENR is still conducting a site assessment of the area which a requisite of its declaration as a "critical habitat" for the specimens.

"We fear people might stampede to the area and adversely affect the fragile flowers, their buds or host-vines," said tourism director Catalino Chan III. "We first want to establish the carrying capacity of the area before we allow visitors, considering the specie in question is considered critically endangered."

Section 27 of Republic Act 9147 prohibits the collection, possession, transport and trading of all Rafflesia species listed as a critically endangered species under DENR Administrative Order #2007-01 on pain of 6-12 years imprisonment or a P100, 000-1,000,000 fine.

The PAWD says the Philippines has the highest density of Rafflesia in the world relative to land area. Unfortunately, the lowland rainforest it calls home is under siege from deforestation and conversion to other uses.

The first species identified as Rafflesia manillana Teschem was found in Basey, Samar in 1841. Other species subsequently discovered in the Philippines include R. cumingi (1845), R. philippensis Blanco (1845) and R.lagascae Blanco (1879, now both considered the same as R. manillana), and more recently, R.baletei Barcelona & Cajano, Camarines Sur; R. lobata Galang & Madulid, Panay Island; R. speciosa Fernando & Ong (2002) Sibalom, Antique, and R. mira. Fernando and Madulid (2005) Mt. Candalaga, Compostela Valley. All species are endangered or threatened. Rafflesia species are classified in the division Magnoliophyta, class Magnoliopsida, order Rafflesiales, family Rafflesiaceae.

What could be the smallest Rafflesia in the Philippines (measuring 12-13 cm in diameter) was recently discovered in Mt. Asog in Camarines Sur,. The researchers from the Camarines Sur State Agricultural College who discovered it has proposed the species be named Rafflesia irigaenses.

According to wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia, Rafflesia is a genus of parasitic flowering plants discovered in Indonesia by an Indonesian guide working for Dr. Joseph Arnold in 1818, and named after Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, leader of the expedition. It has some 20 recognized species, all found in southeastern Asia, on the Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra and Kalimantan, West Malaysia, and the Philippines. Many of the species are extremely rare, and have been recorded in only a handful of localities.

The plant has no stems, leaves or true roots. The flower is a parasite which grows within its host, the tetrastigma vine, and appears as a tangle of fibers in its early stages. It only starts manifesting itself during its reproductive cycle. Outgrowths appear on the root vine, which develop into cabbage-like buds, followed by the blooming of a fully open flower which later bears fruit.

Its largest species, the Rafflesia arnoldii found in Malaysia, has a flower over a meter in diameter and weighs up to 10 kilograms. Even its smallest recognized species, R. manillana, has 20 cm. diameter flowers.

The survival of the sensitive Rafflesia depends on a lot of factors—its seeds need to find the right host, the buds need to receive the right amount of water and nutrients, and flowers of the opposite sex must be nearby so that pollination can occur.

Park authorities in Malaysian natural parks where the flowers have been star attractions for years have instituted measures to minimize the impact of tourism on the survival of the flowers. A lot of buds reportedly failed to bloom when disturbed. Cultivating the flower has met little success.

The PAWD says the most significant threat to the Rafflesia is the destruction of its rainforest habitat. Every year, 100,000 hectares of rainforests across the country are being felled due to logging, mining, and the conversion of forest lands for commercial and residential uses.

POLITICAL SITUATION

[edit]

Baungon, Bukidnon is a place torn by political rivalry usually between very close families. I know this being a resident of the area.

The first missionaries to arrive in Baungon were the Jesuits (Society of Jesus). They helped a lot in the formation of the different Barrios and Barangays. They would travel to these Barrios riding on a horse and by these means converted the locals to Christianity. Much has been done by the Jesuits for it was through their efforts that the formation of barrios and the Christianization of Baungon came about. They should be mentioned along with the history of Baungon. The Jesuits who had been assigned to the parish were: 

  1958-1965  Gregory Horgan
  1965       Thomas Connolly
  1968-74    Eduard Van Groenendael
  1974-75    Jose Dacanay
  1975-77    Teodoro Urrutia
  1977-1980  Joseph Bittner
  1980-85    Romeo Serrato
  1985-86    Buddy Wee

Our place is home also to the rare amorphophallus paeoniifolius which grow tremendously well in Nicdao. We have a very good irrigation system which waters many farms in our area. Two rivers divided the plateau that is Baungon... one is called Bubunawan, and living to its name is very cold. Bugnaw in our language means Cold. The other is Tumala-ong, a good place for swimming and passing time.

After the Jesuits, six filipino secular priests served the parish namely: 

  1986-89 Gonzalo Pimentel
  1989-92 Danilo Paciente
  1992-95 Rudy Porras
  1995-2000 Erap Nazareno
  2000-2001 Cosme Almedilla
  2001-2006 Diomedes Brigoli

From among the local residents, we have produced 3 women religious: Srs. Wilma Olango, MCJ; Ruth Linaac, RVM; Adie Vallecera, RVM and another three religious missionaries among the men; they are: Fr. Sirenio Jaranilla, O.Carm; Fr. Ransom Rapirap, OCD; and Fr. Ritche Catubo.

=====================
[edit]

1757 - Apo Mandapagun arrived from Lambaguhon, Kagayha-an (Cagayan de Oro City today) and resided in Buenavista. Apo Mandapagun's brothers and sisters came along with him, they were: Inay Quirenaw, Apo Man-utok, Apo Malughod and Inay Linda Dialangan.

Apo Mandapagun is the father of Apo Dapagun. Apo Dapagun is the father of Apo Matulis. Apo Matulis' children are: 

 1. Apo Tulis
 2. Apo Amay Tomas Lilangan
 3. Apo Mandintuhan
 4. Apo Ilumon
 5. Inay Botis
 6. Inay Miayana
 7. Inay Musal
 8. Apo Sungkayaw
 9. Inay Laum
10. Apo Mateo Hukmayan

1902 - Old Imbatug was founded.

1918 - an epidemic swept many lives in Old Imbatug

Due to this epidemic, the residents decided to cross back Cagayan river, some hid in the mountains. Those who decided to stay chose Apo Manlibanda as their leader. He called a meeting and proposed that they leave old Imbatug and transfer to Brgy. Imbatug which eventually became the Poblacion.

On their way to Brgy. Imbatug, they stopped at a stream "Pandaug" (Pandahug today) and performed Panlitub - a ritual to drive away the evil spirits symbolizing the epidemic. "Daug" is Victory thus, Pandaug is named to commemorate their victory over the sickness. The land adjacent to the river they named "Mando". "Mando" is TO COMMAND" from the latin word, "Mandatum". This symbolized their command over the evil spirits to leave them in peace. In those days, there were two Mando: Upper and Lower. Mansumina Lilo lived in lower Mando, the part across the mando river near the cemetery now. Upper Mando was the place under the direction of Apo Simbo. The chapel standing now in Mando was constructed by Apo Simbo.

May 6, 1920 - New Poblacion, Imbatug at present is founded

Apo Amay Tomas Lilangan became the first Datu that ruled the New Poblacion. His offspring are: 

 1. Maria (Laque) Layawan (Inay Bawi)
 2. Rosita Malinawon (Inay Damit)
 3. Cypriano Lilangan (Apo Simbo)
 4. Juliana Oblad (Inay Ombad)

1950's the Jesuits came to do Missionary work in Baungon. Apo Simbo built a Chapel in Mando. The story was that an old man appeared to Apo Simbo in a dream urging him to build a Chapel so that the people will be Christianized. This happened and many were converted to Christianity. Since he had three wives, the Jesuits advised him to select only one in conformity with the Christian tradition of monogamy. He chose the second, Inay Apay Laque. Inay Apay had three children from Apo Simbo. These are: 

 1. Rufino Lilangan
 2. Felomina Bacarro
 3. Oding Cadete
 4. Petronila Jaranilla

Important Note: Apo Simbo also adopted the son of his sister Inay Bawi. Adopted was Patricio Layawan which later on kept the maiden name of his mother, thus he became known as Patricio Lilangan.

Patricio Lilangan married Esperanza Nagac. Their children are: 

  1. Irma Lunaan
  2. Erwina 
  3. Rey Lilangan
  4. Paz Rosaciña
  5. Alta Rita Waban
  6. Gemma Cadavero Corbin
  7. Perla Rara
  8. Nictum Lilangan
  9. Cypriano Lilangan
 10. Teresita Lago

The inter-marriage from the tribe of Talakag can be presented this way:

Amay Kalinaw, a prominent family of talakag was the father of Amay Lantungan, Amay Malaque (who became the first husband of Inay Bawi) and the third, Amay Salicobay.

Amay Malaque and Inay Bawi had a son with the name of Juanito Laque.

The second husband of Inay Bawi was Marcos Layawan who begot three children: Eusebio Layawan, Patricio Layawan (later on Lilangan) and Bernabe Layawan.

On the other hand, Amay Salicobay married Carmen Bisang and they bore a son with the name Simeon Salicobay. Simeon married Martina Man-inotao and their children are: 

  1. Violeta Iway
  2. Felomina Pacana
  3. Anastacia Salicobay
  4. Sonny Boy Salicobay

==================================
[edit]

Who is Teodoro Urrutia, SJ?

Fr. Teodoro Urrutia, SJ was born on November 20, 1913 in Nanclaves de Gamboa, Spain. Perhaps because of the influence of the Jesuit education he obtained from St. Francis Xavier at Sanguesa, in Navarro, Fr. Urrutia entered the Society of Jesus on June 7, 1934. He pronounced his first vows two years later and after years of studies and formation was ordained to the priesthood on July 30, 1948. The following year he made his tertianship and then pronounced his final vows on February 2, 1951. As his first assignment, he taught religion, math and literature at the Escuela Profesional Cristo Rey in Burgos, Spain.

Later, he was made principal of that school. In 1962, his dream of being sent to the missions was realized when he was allowed to go to the Philippines. In this country which would become the dominant passion of his Jesuit life, Fr. Urrutia was first assigned to the island of Olutanga in Zamboanga del Sur. There he would be involved in running the Loyola High School in Subanipa while at the same time acting as assistant parish priest of the town. After more than ten years on the island, his missionary zeal would bring him to Bukidnon as where he would serve as assistant parish priest to the different towns of the province, he would stay longer in Baungon, Bukidnon where he became the voice of the poor against the powerful.

In 1977, he was back to his beloved Olutanga island. His apostolic work would take its toll on his health and so in 1988, he was transferred to the Loyola House of Studies in Manila. Despite his health condition however. he would still engage in active ministry, doing pastoral work in the Quezon Institute and then chaplaincy work for the Sisters of Mary Boystown and Girlstown in Silang, Cavite and Sta. Mesa, Manila. In 2003, his health condition worsened and on August 26, 2004, Fr. Teodoro Urrutia, SJ, finally joined his Creator whom he had faithfully served with his outstanding dedication to the missionary work of the Society of Jesus.

Hasta Luego, Don Teodoro!
