GAMP’YA PAGDATANG! This are the words you can first notice upon arrival in our municipal hall. They are in Subanen dialect which mean “Maayong Pag-abot”. The municipality is headed by our passionate Mayor Engr. Ezel T. Villanueva together with her Sangguniang Bayan Members headed by Hon. Vice Mayor Antonio N. Lawas, Sr., active head of offices and staff. Calamba is the strategic point of trade and commerce of the five municiplaities namely: Plaridel, Lopez Jaena, Baliangao, Sapang Dalaga and Concepcion. The municipality has much to offer to our beloved Calambahanons and neighboring community people. Being one of the fast growing municipalities in Misamis Occidental, Calamba has well-developed facilities and services for communication, transportation, power resources and infrastructures. Some of Calamba’s major projects are its municipal hall and gymnasium. The energy efficient municipal hall building is being enjoyed not just by the LGU employees but also by the Calambahanons. Local and some provincial events and gatherings are held in its atrium. Gymnasium is now on its last stage of construction.

                    Calamba is working now on its new Calamba Memorial Park of Life, a cemetery located in Brgy. DBAN. This is to give the departed ones more space to rest since almost cemeteries in the municipality are congested. Talking about foods, Calambahanons are in. Restaurants and coffee shops are born nowadays offering mouthwatering recipes. Every Sundays, Calamba offer fresh seafoods from neighboring municipalities. Also, online selling is a trend. Many individuals are offering their foods and products online and deliver it in front of your doorsteps. As one of the province’s main agricultural area and has a continuous increase of farm production, Calamba, can supply the province’s domestic needs. As recorded, it has an abundant supply of coconut. Root crops, vegetables and other production are not limited in a backyard scale giving priority response to the economic condition of farmers. As Calamba’s population increases, number of buildings, establishments and households increase. This is a proof that Calamba is now on its way to becoming a more renowned municipality when it comes to different aspects and sectors in the province of Misamis Occidental.
