Welcome to Rizal – the last
frontier of Palawan, the country’s
last ecological frontier. Though
the Municipality is one of the
least known among the countless
destinations in the Province, it
boasts of truly unforgettable
sights. Mt. Mantalingahan ,
Palawan’s highest peak and a
veritable paradise of lush virgin
forests, home to rare flora and
fauna, majestically towers over
the Municipality. Spectacular
white-sand beaches stretch along
the entire coastal length. The
Tau’t Bato tribe, a unique group
of indigenous people, can be found
in Singnapan Valley, a bowl-shaped
valley. A must see place because
of its historical and
anthropological importance. To
those who have experienced its
largely unspoilt natural and
cultural treasures, Rizal is truly
worth the visit, again and again.
Its people, representing a diverse
combination of different
ethno-linguistic groups, have been
a showcase of peace and unity.
Working in harmony, they have been
able to harness the untapped
resources in them, and directing
these into worthwhile courses of
action geared towards the common
goal of development. Rizal is well
on its way to become a major area
of sustainable growth and
development. With the support of
its people, the Municipality shall
move onward to more efficient
utilization and conservation of
resources through more
responsive governance.
HON. SAMSON I. DEGILLO
Municipal
Mayor
