Philippines: Misamis Occidental Provincial Profile
Misamis Occidental is located near the narrow strip of land linking northwestern Mindanao, to the north central part of the island. Shaped like a collapsible fan or a loaf of
American Bread or the fourth letphilmapaniter in the alphabet, it is bounded on the northeast by the Mindanao Sea, East by the Iligan Ba, southeast by the Panguil Bay,
and the west by the Zamboanga Del Norte and Sur. The fact that three of its boundaries are bodies of water gives away water life as one of its natural resources and
findings as one of its main boundaries. Except along the coastal area, hilly and rolling land characterized the
provincial terrain. Towards the western border, the terrain is particularly rugged. The name ‘Misamis’ is 3 14 490
believed to have been derived from the Subano word ‘Kuyamis’ which is a variety of sweet coconut –
the staple food of the early settlers in this place. (Source: https://misocc.gov.ph/history/) CITIES MUNICIPALITIES BARANGAYS
