This was disclosed on Sunday (October 19) by Gov. Corazon

Gov. Malanyaon said that the provincial government prepared a P
20-million development plan around the three-hectare buffer zone of the Mount

Malanyaon said that the facilities will include interpretation
room required by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization (UNESCO), museum devoted only for the mountain, research center,
coffee shop, camp site and other basic amenities like visitor’s lounge and
comfort rooms.
“We have submitted this development blue print to various
government agencies and fortunately, got support from them,” she added.
Malanyaon identified the government agencies as Mindanao
Development Authority (MINDA), Department of Tourism (DOT), Tourism
Infrastructure Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA) and Department of Public Works
and Highway (DPWH).
Aside from Mt. Hamiguitan, Gov. Malanyaon also revealed that the
provincial government in partnership with other government agencies like the
