September 13 marks the commemoration of the 1986 Sipat Peace Talks between the Government under then President Corazon Aquino and the Cordillera People’s Liberation Army under the leadership of the former rebel priest Conrado “Ka Ambo” Balweg. The 1986 Sipat Peace Talks happened in Mount Data Hotel in Bauko, Mountain Province.

“Sipat” means in the local dialect in the Cordillera as “peace agreement”. This is an indigenous practice in the Cordillera region which is initially done before a peace pact between tribes are forged.

The 1986 Sipat agreement was the initial process towards peace between the government and the CPLA. The Sipat peace talks ultimately led to the creation of the Cordillera Administrative region by virtue of Executive Order No. 220 issued on July 15, 1986.

The area now known as Baguio City was first called Kafagway and occupied by the Kankaney and Ibaloi tribes of the Cordilleras.

During the Spanish occupation of the Philippines, the colonizers conducted a series of expeditions, led by Juan Salcedo in 1572 and Don Q. M. Quirante in 1694 to the cool mountains of Benguet. A series of failed attempts to conquer the natives were made until foothold was finally gained by Commandante de Galvey in 1846, when he was able to establish a commandancia or military garrison in a beautiful stretch of fertile flat land. The 'presidentia' (civil government) was first established in the Guisad Valley area. It was later moved to the present site of the Baguio City Hall.

During the American occupartion, the members of the five-man Taft Commission, including Luke Wright, climbed way up north in search for a cool place and were rewarded with the discovery of fresh pine growths among rolling beautiful hills, and Baguio was found.

A development plan was laid out and roads were built, followed by a survey for a railroad to Baguio. The Commission assigned Major Lyman Kennon to supervise the building of the road cut through rock cliffs to open a route to Baguio, which was later named after him.

In 1903, the Americans declared Baguio the Summer Capital of the Philippines and as the residence of the American governor-general to escape Manila's summer heat.

Baguio was developed further by the Americans by building parks and public structures such as the Wright Park in honor of Governor General Luke E. Wright, and the Burnham Park in honor of Baguio city planner Daniel Burnham.

On September 1, 1909, Baguio, then a municipality of Benguet was declared a chartered city by virtue of Act No. 1963. Then Governor General William Cameron Forbes directed Justice George Malcolm to write the city's charter.

The name of the city is derived from the word "bagiw" in Ibaloi, the indigenous language of the Benguet Region meaning "moss."

LET'S C.U.R.E. THE MOUNTAINS YR.6: Tree Planting and Adopt-a-Park Program🌱

Two hundred pine tree seedlings were planted at Pine Trees of the World Park to mark the start of the ten-year adopt-a-park program of JCI Baguio Sunflower and Philippine College of Phyisicians-Northern Luzon Chapter. Part of the agreement is a quarterly visit to the park to ensure that the planted seedlings and the park in general are properly taken cared of. All tree-caring activities of the local organization for the next ten years will happen in this park. This is one of JCI Baguio Sunflower's way to support, promote and sustain urban forests. 🌲🌲🌲

Other partner groups are JCI Baguio Senate and Baguio Responsible Association of Detailman (BRAD).
