SPDA CY-2014 ANNUAL REPORT 1
Against the backdrop of a letter from the Governance Commission on GOCCs
(GCG) dated December 3, 2013 informing SPDA that through a Memorandum
from the Executive Secretary dated November 26, 2013 that the President has
abolished the SPDA and the scheduled Technical Working Group Meeting
which was set on June 19, 2014 as earlier informed by GCG, the Agency’s
activities/accomplishments for CY 2014 was undertaken within the limitations
of this order from GCG. In effect, the proposed plans and programs for the
period could not be pursued saved for the on-going operations of some
projects which had to be sustained. For its part, however, Management
continued to coordinate and requested reconsideration with the GCG, the
Office of the President and the support of the Bangsamoro Transition
Committee, the MILF leadership and the GPH Panel and some Mindanao
Congressmen and Senators in asserting the Agency’s position that SPDA’s
inclusion first in the Framework Agreement on the Bangsamoro under the
Annex on Revenue Generation and Wealth Sharing and eventually in the
Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro (CAB) and the accompanying
Annexes posed a violation of the signed AGREEMENT AND ITS INTENT.

been granted management contractor during the partial continuing rehabilitation period of
the project facilities.
The Authority continued the conversion of usage of property of SPDA Integrated Solar
Salt and Fish Farm to an aquaculture production from a salt production considering the
unpredictable weather conditions in the region. However, proposed plans and activities of
the project were put in abeyance due to the SPDA abolition issue which was resolved
only with the notification letter from the Governance Commission on GOCC and the
President has directed to put on hold any action on the abolition of the SPDA for the
meantime as issues related to the Comprehensive Agreement on the Bangsamoro are
being resolved.

any private company in producing aqua products like bangus and prawns within the 67-
hectares production areas. A Memorandum of Agreement was forged between the
Department of Agriculture Bureau of Fisheries Region IX based in Zamboanga City and
SPDA for the former to utilize one of the ponds as a demonstration and training area for
aquaculture production. The Authority will enhance the operations and management of
the project to maximize the profitability and explore other potential aquaculture venture

project managed to harvest a total of 547 kilos of pangasius/cream dory valued at P
54,700.00 at P 100.00 per kilo and delivered to Marawi Resort Hotel. A Purchase Order
of 7,500 kilos priced at P 80.00 per kilo has been served by MRHI but the storage
capacity of the resort cannot accommodate more than 500 kilos thus the staggered harvest
for CY-2014.
A Memorandum of Agreement was forged between the Department of Agriculture
Bureau of Fisheries Region IX based in Zamboanga City and SPDA for the former to
utilize one of the ponds as a demonstration and training area for aquaculture production
for the fishermen and interested individuals in Zamboanga City and neighboring areas.

Social hall/function room
FiNISHED PRODUCT
SPDA CY-2014 ANNUAL REPORT 6
However, the continuing power outages experienced in Mindanao during the hot summer
periods caused the temporary shutdown of the operations which consequently hampered
the attainment of the target
output of the ice plant and it also
failed to serve the demand
requirements of the market.
Generating sets could offer a
solution but this would also
increase the production cost.
Slowly, however, with the
improving power supply
condition and the rehabilitation
work undertaken, the ice plant
has returned to its normal
operation and improvement in
the ice output was realized.
Implemented rehabilitation of some parts of the production area incurring a total amount
of P 1.629 million sourced out from the subsidy released by the National Government for
the purpose in CY-2009. This is part and partial of the continuing rehabilitation of the

SPDA officers and staff ocular inspection and meeting with the National Housing Authority Region IX at the
Mariki and Rio Hondo properties under the disposition of SPDA which was affected by the Zamboanga crisis

The National Housing Authority both Central Office and Region IX has communicated with
SPDA for their plans of rehabilitating the area. The plans for the housing settlements shall be
executed by the DPWH. Dispositive actions on this property shall be finalized by Management.
In 1975, a project known as Sahaya Village was established in Mariki, then a sitio of Barangay Rio Hondo, Zamboanga
City, by the government through the Southern Philippines Development Authority (SPDA) pursuant to Presidential
Proclamation No. 1458 and letter of Instructions 481. Said project triggered the exodus of people from the
neighboring provinces into Mariki and due to its ideal geographical location and by virtue of the fact that Zamboanga
city is the center of commerce and host to prominent educational institutions, many opted to establish residency in
the area not only for economic reasons but foremost, the education of their children.
This reality propelled Mariki into a full pledge Barangay after satisfying all the basic requirements for the
establishment of the same, particularly in terms of population, income and geographical size. Such creation was
likewise in pursuance of PP 1458 AND LOI 481.
