Motiong Town Proper
Pronunciation? It is "mot-yong". And no other way, so remember that! If you are coming from Catbalogan, Motiong is next to, (after about 8kms from) Jiabong . In fact, this town has a lot of similarities with Jiabong. For one, both towns are in the fish-rich Maqueda Bay area. Motiong's municipal hall is at the end of a nice well-maintained fenced-off garden... If you're visiting on a vehicle, there's no parking area here other than at the police station to the right. Here's a closer look of that municipal building above. I think it's also similar to that of Jiabong... The back of this building are residential houses and a breakwater. Other offices are in nearby areas. Like that one with a flag. Yes the old house. I wondered what offices are in there... I thought that's an old residential home, but then, there is a Philippine flag. So it's a municipal office! When I looked to the right... wha! The sea beckoned, so I walked towards that end.
