AHistory
Rubric adapted
http://mrmeier.weebly.com/uploads/4/3/5/9/4359346/featurearticlerubric.pdf
Batac was founded by the Augustinians in 1587 under the patronage of the Immaculate Conception. It is the second
oldest town in Ilocos Norte and reached its fourth centennial in 1987.
On January 5, 1586, Batac was officially organized into a ministry. During this time, Paoay and Dinglas (or Dingras)
were visitas of Batac.

Batac’s name is derived from a local dialect that means “pull.”

Folk history would also tell you an equally interesting story about how Batac got its name. It is said that a man fell into
a deep hole while digging for a root crop called camangeg.
Despite his efforts to get out, he couldn’t muster the strength to successfully lift himself out. Luckily, two men from Paoay
passed by and heard him screaming for help. The words he used were “Bataquennac! Bataquennac!” The two men
from Paoay didn’t understand anything but the man that fell explained that it meant “Pull me up! Pull me up!”

So, the two men from Paoay told the story to their friends when they reached their hometown. Since then, the town has
been called Batac which is derived from “bataquennac.”

Batac became a city in 2007, but it lost its cityhood as the cityhood law which allowed the town to become a city was
deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of the Philippines after a petition filed by the League of Cities of the
Philippines. However, cityhood was restored in 2011.

Singapore is a country in Southeast Asia. It is an island near the end of the Malay peninsula. A
"peninsula" is a piece of land that has water on three sides.

Singapore is what is called a "city-state." This means that it is an independent country that has only
one city. Singapore is the name of the country and the city that take up the entire island.

Until 1965, Singapore was ruled by the United Kingdom. In 1965, they gained their independence and
established their own government. "Established" means to set-up or build.

Because of its location, Singapore has become a critical (very important) business hub. "Hub" means
center or key location. It is a good stopping point for ships that are traveling between Asia and Europe
or Africa.

When trade was primarily (mostly) done by ships, Singapore became a very important port. A "port" is
a place where ships go in and out. This continues today. Singapore is the fifth largest port in the
world!

Being an important port, Singapore has also become a very important center for world business. This
means that Singapore has a very strong and diverse economy, which sets it apart from many other
Southeast Asian nations.
Singapore's Economy
Singapore's economy is very strong in a number of different areas. Due to its large and centrally
located port, import and export is an important part of Singapore's economy.

"Import" means bringing items into the country and "export" means sending items out of the country.
Many of the goods imported and exported are electronics and technology or are related to chemical,
oil, or medical supplies.

Oil and oil rig (the machine used for drilling oil) are also important elements in Singapore's economy.

Another area that is important to Singapore's economy is finance. "Finance" is the business of money
and trading money. Singapore is the world's fourth-largest financial center after New York, London,
and Tokyo.

Over 10,000 companies from around the world have offices in Singapore. As a result of having so
many multi-national companies, nearly half of the people who work in Singapore are from other
countries. "Multi-national" means from many different countries.

Tourism is another important area for Singapore's economy. "Tourism" is travel for reasons other than
business. Many people travel to Singapore simply to see the beautiful country.

Singapore is well-known for being a clean and safe country that has many interesting sites to see.

In addition to vacation tourists, many people go to Singapore each year to receive medical care. These
people are called medical tourists.

The third major kind of tourism that is important to Singapore is educational tourism. Each year,
thousands of international students study at Singapore's universities. Many of these students are from
nearby Asian countries, but some are also from Europe and the United States.
Thanks to its diverse economy, Singapore is a very wealthy nation. In fact, it is one of the top ten
richest countries in the world. Many people in Singapore are millionaires but some are very poor. It is a
small country, but serves as a model for other nations when looking at their own economies.
