II. Rationale

Maasin is a third (3 rd) class municipality. The keystone of economic is

agriculture. The residents derive much of its income from various agricultural
products. The town is composed fifty (50) barangays with the distance of
approximately thirty (30) kilometers from the City of Iloilo. As of 2010, total
po pulation of the municipality reaches up 35,069 according to the population
census of the National Statistics Office. Novemeber 2013 Typhoon Yolanda hit
the municipality and left 536 affected families. 166 of which are Panatwid
Pamilya grantees. As of the latest SWI result the total Panatwid Pamilya
families belonging to the subsistence level is 1,260.

Barangays Linab and Punong are upland barangays where most of the
residents derive their income from driving “ habal habal”, selling bamboo
poles and other products. Some have small agricultural land to till. Wives of
these workers involve their selves in sawali weaving to augment in the
family’s income.

During community assemblies consultations and validations. It was

known that turmeric is abundant in the area but was not given any
importance by the residents because of unawareness of its usefulness.
Participants from these barangays signified their interest to learn new skill in
processing turmeric that they could use for their new livelihood. The Local
Government Unit of Maasin through the Municipal Social Welfare and
 Development Office ( MSWDO) in partnership with identified training provider
had organized a training for the Pantawid beneficiaries and STY Affected
participants. In view of this opportunity, the Department of Social Welfare &
development - Iloilo province , had proposed to allocate funds for the Skills
Training Program for Livelihood Support in line with the thrust to provide
the participants/beneficiaries of Pantawid Pamilya Pilipino a more stable
program that would give them the knowledge, skills and confidence.
