“Nandaragupan” A Glimpse of the Past
The image of the weather-beaten,muscle-bound man of the sea,bronzed and almost nondescript in an old hat called tacoco,steering a sleek,boat they called baloto in those days,had been classic Dagupenos bread winner when the Pangasinan waters were fish-laden and pristine. Dagupan’s fame as trading post even before the coming of the Spaniards was inexorably tied with the sea,the marine resources that were lifeblood to the flourishing barter trade that drew intrepid seafarers who brougth their valuable goods from across the sea. Through the 300-years Spanish regime Dagupan’s commercial activities thrived,m ainly pursued through the wide,swift moving commounal water’s that crisscrossed the earl y settlement. Of the four major rivers of Dagupan,it was Pantal that carried the biggest commercial traffic and the lucrative cultural of oysters,shrimps,Malaga and mollusks. Pantal was staging point and means of navigation for the early fish-traders who heavily traded with the Kapampangans and tagalogs of Nueva Ecija. The early recorded effort to officially place Dagupan on the map showed Dagupan as a sitio of Lingayen encomienda and later as a settlement town, the Augustinians friars named Bacnotan. The name changed promted a revolt led by Andres malong, after which the term “Nandaragupan” became popular apppllation, for it was in the old entreport( Market) “where the people met”.

Nature of the Local Economy

Dagupan City is geared towards creating a competitive, diversified and environmental-friendly economy. Moreover, the city intends to be known globally as the Bangus (Milkfish) Capital of the World.

Hence, the City Government has initiated policies and programs to establish a competitive and environmentally sustainable Bangus (milkfish) industry. Concomitantly, Dagupan is developing its aqua-eco tourism potential to establish itself as an alternative tourist destination in Northern Philippines.

Coastal Area

As a coastal city, where one takes a first crack at the winds that blow from South China Sea, Dagupan has 72 hectares of beach land, with its coconut groves that serve as shelter for beach goers.

Extensive Aquaculture Area

The rivers and the sea serve as potential source of economic activity for coastal residents. One fifth of the city’s total area consists of fishponds devoted to the culture of the tastiest milkfish (chanos-chanos) in the country. Shrimps, prawns, crabs and mussels are also available the whole year. Oyster culture is also one of the sources of income among residents living near the rivers.

Proximity to Tourist Attractions

Dagupan City is the jumping point of the city of Pines: Baguio, the country’s summer capital, to the exotic Hundred Islands in Alaminos City, Pangasinan, to the Municipality of Manaoag, where religious sojourners flock to the miraculous shrine of the Virgin Mary of Manaoag, among others.
