The sulfuric smell and ashfall currently being experienced in the Poblacion Area and parts of Antipolo are due to the ongoing activity of Mt. Kanlaon, with winds blowing towards the Southwest-South direction.

We advise everyone, including our valued tourists and guests in all tourism establishments, to wear face masks and stay indoors as much as possible. This is especially important for children, senior citizens, and those with respiratory conditions such as asthma.

Rest assured, we are coordinating with all tourism establishments to ensure your safety and provide updates as needed. Let us continue to pray for Mt. Kanlaon to calm down.

Stay safe, everyone!

The Department of Tourism Western Visayas urges tourism offices, stakeholders, and local government units near Mt. Kanlaon to remain vigilant following the Office of Civil Defenseโ€™s warning of a possible lahar flow in Negros Occidental. This is due to a potential tropical depression developing in the southeastern part of Mindanao.

Tourism establishments and LGUs with sites such as rivers and waterfalls outside the 6-kilometer Permanent Danger Zone (PDZ) are advised to take precautions and proactively inform visitors about the current and evolving situation.

The Municipality of Pontevedra has reached a historic milestone, officially reclassified as a First-Class Municipality under the Department of Financeโ€™s Order No. 74-2024.

From its humble beginnings as a Third-Class Municipality, our town has steadily risen through the ranks, driven by economic growth and improved public services. At the heart of this success are its leaders: Mayor Hon. Jose Maria A. Alonso, Vice Mayor Hon. Jimmy C. Gavan, and the Sangguniang Bayan Members, whose commitment to inclusive governance and sustainable development has transformed the town into a beacon of progress.

As Pontevedra embraces its First-Class status, it sets its sights even higher. With the same spirit of collaboration and ambition, our municipality is poised for even greater achievements, ensuring a brighter future for generations to come. The journey continues, but for now, Pontevedra celebrates proudly and deservingly!

To God be the Glory!
