Climate

Climate typeClimate typePAGASA sorts the country's climate into four types by when the rain falls. Type I has a dry season from November to April and a wet one for the rest of the year; Type II has no dry season, with the most rain from December to February; Type III has a short dry season; Type IV has rain spread through the year.More in the glossary

Type IV[31]

Rain spread fairly evenly through the year, with no dry season.

Poverty, 2021Poverty incidenceHow many of every 100 people live in families whose income is below the poverty line: what a person needs in a year for food and other basic needs, as the PSA sets it for each province. It is an estimate, from a survey or, for a town, a statistical model, so the PSA gives a range it is likely to fall in.More in the glossary
35.2% of people[18]Below the poverty line, by the PSA's estimate for every town.
Income classIncome classThe Department of Finance sorts provinces, cities and municipalities into classes by their average yearly income over recent years: 1st class has the most. It measures the local government's income, not how well off its people are.More in the glossary

About 35 of every 100 people in Manay lived below the poverty line in 2021 (35.2%)[18]

History & Identity

How it got its name

Local traditionLocal account: in 1860 three sisters were bathing in the river when a Spanish ship entered its mouth; the youngest, left behind, cried 'Manay!' (a respectful word for an older sister), the first word the Spaniards heard, and the place took that name.[10]

Its story

Before Christianization the area was inhabited by Mansaka and Mandaya groups ruled by a chieftain called a bagani.[10]

Missionary work among the Caraga visitas, including Manay, was massive by 1873, and a statue of Saint Francis Xavier was blessed at Manay on 6 December 1885.[10]

Manay was an old mission and barrio of Caraga; in 1895 its residents petitioned the Spanish commandant in Mati for their own municipality, wanting relief from the bad roads to Caraga.[10]

Its municipality was made of barrios of Caraga (Central, San Isidro, Concepcion, San Fermin, Manreza, Santa Maria) and of Santa Cruz and San Ignacio from Mati.[10]

Manay's first municipal mayor, Cenon Palma Gil, was appointed in 1918, and the first election was held in 1923.[10]
