CALABARZON is one of the regions of the Philippines. It is also designated as Region IV-A and its regional capital is Calamba City in Laguna. The region is composed of five provinces, namely: Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon. The region's name is an portmanteau of the names of these provinces.
The region is located in southwestern Luzon, just south and west of Metro Manila and is the second most densely populated region.
CALABARZON and MIMAROPA were previously combined together as Southern Tagalog, until they were separated in 2002. Palawan was subsequently moved from MIMAROPA to the more logical Western Visayas, turning the former into MIMARO.
Executive Order No. 246, dated October 28, 2003, designated Calamba City as the regional center of CALABARZON.
World Outlook in Local Action
In compliance with the principles of 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the Municipal Government of Rosario, Batangas formulated the Aksyon ng Bayan Rosario 2001 And Beyond Human and Ecological Security Plan by virtue of Executive Order No. 98-02 dated October 5, 1998 by then Mayor Rodolfo Guerra Villar.
The plan pursued a sustainable development approach to poverty reduction efforts balanced with concerns for ecological security. This required an active collaboration among the municipal and barangay government units, non-governmental and people's organizations, and the local community.
To further institutionalize the Aksyon ng Bayan Rosario 2001 And Beyond framework and integrate its principles in local development plans, the CLUP was prepared by the Municipal Land Use Committee and the Office of the Municipal Planning and Develoment Coordinator, with technical assistance from the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board (HLURB). In 2000, the CLUP and its accompanying Zoning Ordinance (ZO) was approved with immediate effect.
