    (Mount Sugarloaf) a steep volcanic cone and a prominent landmark at the

    northern entrance of Guimaras Strait. Pan de Azucar is under the jurisdiction


    of the municipality of Concepcion, Iloilo on Panay Island, one of the largest
    and major islands of the Philippines. Pan de Azucar is the largest of 16
    outlying islands of the town and makes up nearly 19 percent of Concepcion's
    total land area. According to the 2010 census, the island has a population of
    2,999. The island possibly contains valuable mineral deposits and is being

    flood that submerged the native lands of Bukidnon and only the tip of the mountain,
    the size of a "tanglad" (lemon grass), remained visible ("kita" in Visayan). It is
    considered as an ancestral domain of several old cultural communities like the
    Bukidnons, Higaonons and Talaandigs. Mount Kitanglad was proclaimed a protected
    area under the natural park category through Presidential Proclamation 896 dated
    October 24, 1996. On November 9, 2000, Mt. Kitanglad finally became a full-pledge
    protected area when Congress approved R.A. 8978 also known as the Mt. Kitanglad
