A. HISTORICAL BACKGROUNDS

HISTORY OF ISABELA STATE UNIVERSITY

The Isabela State University (ISU) was established on June 10, 1978, through

Presidential Decree (P.D.) 1434 by President Ferdinand Marcos. It was a result of merging

two state colleges, namely the Isabela State College of Agriculture (ISCA) in Echague and

the Cagayan Valley Institute of Technology in Cabagan. Additionally, the college-level

programs of Isabela School of Arts and Trades (ISAT) in Ilagan, San Mateo Vocational and

Industrial School in San Mateo, and Jones Rural School in Jones were transferred to the

newly formed state university. The main campus and administrative site were designated in

Echague. Over the years, ISU has grown and expanded. In 1999, the Cauayan Polytechnic

College in Cauayan, Isabela, became the first CHED supervised institution to be integrated

into the university. In 2002, three more CHED Supervised Institutions were integrated into

the system: Roxas Memorial Agricultural and Industrial School (RMAIS) in Roxas, Isabela,

Delfin Albano Memorial Institute of Agriculture and Technology (DMIAT) in San Mariano,

Isabela, and Angadanan Agro-Industrial College (AAIC) in Angadanan, Isabela.

Furthermore, two extension units, ISU Palanan and ISU Santiago, were added to the system

through collaboration with the local governments of Palanan and Santiago City.

The Isabela State University System is strategically located in the Cagayan Valley

region, which includes Batanes, Cagayan, Isabela, Nueva Vizcaya, and Quirino. The satellite

campuses of ISU are strategically situated in the region's major urban and commercial

centers. The university also benefits from its proximity to the Regional Agro-Industrial

Center (RIC) of Cauayan City, the entry point for international trade in Sta. Ana, Cagayan,
 ISABELA STATE UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE EDUCATION

and the regional trade, financial, and commercial centers of Tuguegarao City and Santiago

City.

After forty-one years since its establishment, ISU has become a credible Higher

Education Institute (HEI). It has been recognized by the Association of Accrediting Agencies

of Chartered Colleges and Universities of the Philippines (AACCUP) as the SUC with the

most number of accredited programs in 2012. ISU is also one of the few Level IV SUCs in

the country. The university has taken on leadership roles in research, not only in Region 02

but also in the country and Asia. It is the host or base agency of two regional research

centers: the Higher Education Regional Research Center under CHED and the Cagayan

Valley Agricultural Resources Research and Development under PCAARRD-DOST.

Presently, ISU is the seat of at least 12 R&D centers and laboratories, showcasing its strong

research and development capabilities.

With its educational leadership, pioneering research, and strategic satellite campuses,

ISU is successfully achieving its vision, mission, and goals. It has become a credible partner

of development in the country, and its future looks promising as it continues to grow and

excel with the dedication of its faculty, support staff, students, and supporters.

BUREAU OF FIRE PROTECTION

The Bureau of Fire Protection was established in 1991 by Republic Act (RA) 6975,

also known as the Department of Interior of Local Government (DILG) Act of 1990, and was

initially made up of the remaining personnel and uniformed officers from the Fire Service of

the Integrated Police (INP) as established by Presidential Decree (PD) No. 765. Since then,

the Bureau of Fire Protection has celebrated its anniversary as an independent entity within

the PC/INP annually in August. The Manila Fire Department was founded on August 7,
 ISABELA STATE UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE EDUCATION

1901, by the United States Philippine Commission as part of the Department of Streets,

Parks, Fire, and Sanitation. However, the current organization was formed when the prior

department was divided. Any machinery and gear associated with this specific unit had been

turned over to F.R. Dodges, the new department head, and J.W. Hoey will be his staff

member. Following the resignation of F.R. Hugh Bonner, previous Chief of the New York

City Fire Department, was appointed Fire Chief on December 28, 1901, although he did not

take office until April 25, 1902, with Capt. Hoey still serving as Deputy Chief. Deputy Chief

Hoey filled in for him while he was away. The city's responding to fires department at that

point of Chief Bonner consisted of only 80 personnel and four fire stations, namely Tanduay,

Sta. Cruz, Paco, and Intramuros Fire Stations: There are four (3) engine companies and one

(1) hook and ladder company in the department. The telephone system was the first method

of receiving alerts about fires, and the Game Well Fire Alarm System was founded in July

1902. During Bonner's tenure, the 5th fire station at San Nicolas, Binondo, Manila, was built.

Following Chief Bonner's resignation in 1907, he was followed by Capt Lewis Dingman,

who built the Tondo and San Lazaro Fire Stations. Throughout his rule in power, the steam

fire engine and motor fire apparatus were also invented. When Chief Dingman resigned in

1919, he was succeeded by Capt. Otis Vandeford. He is credited with the building of Sta.

Mesa Fire Station, bringing the overall number of fire stations in the city to six up until the

onset of war. He signed on October 18, 1935, a month before the Philippine Commonwealth

Republic was inaugurated. He became the Manila Fire Department's final American Fire

Chief. Deputy Chief Jacinto Lorenzo became the first Filipino Fire Chief of the Manila Fire

Department on October 19, 1935. He was in charge of reducing the uniformed forces

division's duty schedule from four (4) days consecutively serving alongside a 7-hour day off

and a 15-hour night off to 48 hours of duty and 24 hours of off-duty. By 1944, he had been
 ISABELA STATE UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE EDUCATION

replaced across every frontier station by Deputy Chief Cipriano Cruz Kempetai, or the

Japanese military police. Fifty-three (53) firefighters were arrested for helping the guerilla

movement. Notwithstanding Mayor Leon Guinto's vigorous advocacy with the Japanese

Imperial Army, none of them returned. Their deaths are still shrouded in mystery to this day.

The government of their nation suffered the brunt of the Japanese invasion's brutality. As the

Japanese occupation was coming to an end, the Germans conducted simultaneous raids one

night. The Manila Fire Department was essentially an additional component of the battle

rubble when the entire town was liberated. To get it back on its feet, the US Army had to

furnish it with trucks and other equipment. During Chief Cruz's term, the department added

four (4) new fire departments, namely Gagalangin, Sta. Fire stations in Ana, Arroceros, and

Sampaloc. He withdrew from service on April 21, 1956, and was succeeded by Deputy Chief

Eulogio Samio, who cleared the way for the rehabilitation and reconstruction of the fire

station, as well as the establishment of a contemporary fire station at the Sta. In 1965, Manila

obtained two (2) fire boats for the first time in history, in addition to the Cruz Fire Station and

the firefighting equipment and infrastructure. In 1965, Manila obtained two (2) fire engines

for the first time in history. Chief Samio was additionally in charge of raising the pay of fire

fighters and non-uniformed forces, as well as reducing hours of operation to 24 hours on and

24 hours off. Deputy Chief Jesus Cruz took over his role after he retired on January 21, 1966,

and led the department until December 30, 1966. On December 31, 1966, Mayor Villegas

selected Capt. Domingo Reyes as Officer-in-Charge until March 30, 1966, when President

Marcos appointed Capt. Federico Garcia as Chief of the Manila Fire Department. On March

21, 1974, three years after the amalgamation of the National Capital Region's Police and Jail

Services back into a single unit known as the Metropolitan Police Force under the nucleus of

the Philippine Constabulary, it was led by the commander in chief of the Philippine
 ISABELA STATE UNIVERSITY
COLLEGE OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE EDUCATION

Constabulary, Metropolitan Command The Manila Fire Department is now known as Fire

District 1, National Capital Region. Several district superintendents took over as leaders of

the Manila Fire District Command, including Brig. Gen. Reyes, who was appointed multiple

times by President Marcos and led the Manila Fire Service from July 1, 1980, until December

17, 1985. Upon his passing away the following year, Col. Rodolfo S. Villavicencio took over

and oversaw the District Command until 1987. Republic Act (RA) 6075, often known as the

DILG Act of 1990, was eventually adopted on December 13, 1990, establishing the Bureau

of Fire Protection and its current organization under the Department of the Interior and Local

Government (DILG). R.A. On June 24, 2004, Congress passed R.A. 9263, also known as the

BFP Professionalized, and improved the standards of excellence for appointing in the Bureau

of Fire Protection. President Gloria M. Arroyo signed R.A. on May 8, 2009. 9592, headed

"Act to extend the 5-year basic duration in order to meet the minimum education eligibility

and appropriations qualification in the selection process of the BFP." After the 16th PC

Company provided a separate fire station at the Maharlika, Highway Corner Camacam St.

(now PNB Building), the local government of Santiago provided a separate fire station at the

Maharlika, Highway Corner Camacam St. (now PNB Building). The station for firefighters

was relocated to Quezon Street Centro East, in front of the old City Hall, during the term of

the administration of Jose Pempe C. Miranda. With the inaugural speech of R.A. 6975, the

DILG's three uniformed services-PNP, BFP, and BJMP-were split and assigned unique

functions into separate bureaus, and the Santiago Fire Station transferred to its current

location (ITC Malvar) on June 20, 2011.
