General Trias ([hɛnɛˈɾal ˈtɾias]), officially the City of General Trias[5] (Filipino: Lungsod ng General Trias), formerly known as San Francisco de Malabon is a 1st class component city in the province of Cavite, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 450,583 people.[3]

Etymology

[edit]

During the earlier part of the Spanish colonial period, General Trias was often referred to as Las Estancias (the ranches), which was once a part of Cavite el Viejo, the present-day Kawit. It was also called Malabón Grande. The name Malabón is derived from Tagalog, meaning "having many silt deposits".[6]

The first reference seems to be more probable because General Mariano Trías, a noted writer, adopted the nom de guerre "Labong Grande, on the other hand, was affixed to the appellation because at the time, the place was a vast wilderness covering Sitio Tejero, frequently called by the revolutionary as Salinas (present-day Rosario), Santa Cruz de Malabon or Malabon el Chico (present-day Tanza) and Tierra Alta (present-day Noveleta). When the town was made independent from Cavite el Viejo, it was finally called by its popular name San Francisco de Malabon, in honor of patron saint, Saint Francis of Assisi.

History

First Cry of Cavite

[edit]

The first uprising in Cavite known as the "First Cry of Cavite" occurred in San Francisco de Malabon[7] about ten o’clock in the morning of August 31, 1896, when the town tribunal was attacked by Filipino revolutionaries led by Mariano Trías, Diego Mojica and Nicolas Portilla in Pasong Kalabaw (now known as Santa Clara).[8] The second incident followed at twelve noon at Tierra Alta and the third in Cavite el Viejo between two and three o’clock in the afternoon.

Tejeros Convention

[edit]

A town chapter of the Katipunan known as Balangay Mapagtiis had already been in existence in the place for sometime. The Sangguniang Bayang Magdiwang headed by Gen. Mariano Álvarez of Tierra Alta and the Sangguniang Bayang Mapagtiis of San Francisco de Malabon later merged under the name Magdiwang Council with Álvarez as president. The Magdiwang Council hosted the Tejeros Convention on March 22, 1897, in a friar estate house in Sitio Tejero (now part of Rosario) wherein Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo was elected president and Mariano Trías, then lieutenant general, as vice-president in a revolutionary government replacing the Katipunan.

American occupation

[edit]

On October 15, 1903, Act No. 947 was approved by the Philippine Commission, merging the adjacent town of Santa Cruz de Malabon (present-day Tanza) with San Francisco de Malabon, with the latter designated as the municipal seat.[9] In 1909, a resolution was passed by the San Francisco de Malabon municipal council to separate Santa Cruz de Malabon to become an independent municipality of its own; it took effect in 1910.[10]

On February 28, 1914, Act No. 2390 was passed by the Philippine Assembly, changing the town's name to Malabon.[11] On February 24, 1920, Act No. 2889 was approved, renaming the town after General Mariano Trías, who passed away six years earlier.[12][13]

Cityhood

[edit]

On August 19, 2015, President Benigno Aquino III signed Republic Act No. 10675 which converted the municipality of General Trias into a component city of Cavite.[14] The bill finally came into full effect after majority of the city's residents voted yes to cityhood through a plebiscite.[15] General Trias thus became the seventh city in the province and the 145th in the country.

Lone District of General Trias

[edit]

On September 14, 2018, President Rodrigo Duterte signed Republic Act No. 11069,[16] reapportioning the province of Cavite into eight legislative districts to make General Trias the province's sixth legislative district.

Geography

[edit]

General Trias is an inland city of Cavite located 33 kilometres (21 mi) southwest of Manila and 23 kilometres (14 mi) from Imus. It straddles the northeastern part of the province. The city is surrounded by the municipalities of Rosario and Noveleta in the north, by Tanza and Trece Martires in the west, by Amadeo in the south, Silang in the southeast, and the cities of Dasmariñas and Imus to the east.[17] General Trias has a total land area of 81.46 square kilometers (31.45 sq mi).[18]

Climate

[edit]

Unlike the tropical weather of its lowlands and lower highlands, the upland villages of Panungyanan and Javalera enjoy tropical highland weather due to their nearness to Tagaytay and Amadeo, which is south of the city.

Industrial estates

[edit]
Gateway Business Park

General Trias has been gradually undergoing industrialization since the turn of the 21st century. Several major industrial estates, such as Gateway Business Park, a world class business community in Javalera and the New Cavite Industrial City (NCIC) in Manggahan, have chosen General Trias to be their home base.

The Cavite Export Processing Zone (CEPZ) occupies about 0.60 square kilometers (0.23 sq mi) of land belonging to General Trias. 110 factories operate in the CEPZ. The others are the Golden Gate Industrial Park (Phase I) in Buenavista II and Golden Gate Industrial Park (Phase II) in Panungyanan while the rest are found at Barangay Manggahan, Barangay San Francisco and along Governor's Drive.

Private subdivisions

[edit]

General Trias is considered one of the new frontiers of growth and development in the Calabarzon area as attested by the giant industrial subdivisions located in the city. Many of these are in the highland barangay of Manggahan, located along Governor's Drive, the barangays of San Francisco, Santiago on the Arnaldo Highway, and barangay Pasong Camachille II on Open Canal Road.

Township Developments

[edit]

From small private subdivisions, General Trias has been a leading destination for large scale township developments in recent years. To date, a total of 5 townships under construction and development in the city namely:

  • The 140 hectare Maple Grove, situated on Brgys. Bacao 1 and 2, San Juan II, and Tejero.

Located at the Tejero intersection and opened in May 2016, the 55,000-square-meter (590,000 sq ft) Robinsons Place General Trias (now Robinsons General Trias) is Robinson's fourth shopping mall in the province and the first full-scale mall in General Trias.[35][36][37]

On the southern part of the city, lies one of the biggest Golf and Country residential estate Eagle Ridge Golf and Country Club. It covers about 700 hectares (1,700 acres), which makes it one of the largest residential estate in the Country. The Golf & Country Club, which is one of the component of Eagle Ridge development, is nearing its completion with three playable golf courses and two operational satellite clubhouses.

The 300-hectare (740-acre) Eagle Ridge Residential expanse features a very upscale housing community, the integral component of the project will make up the whole concept of Eagle Ridge as a golf and residential site.

Since the fourth quarter of 2017, a number of shopping malls and areas are currently being built, including Vista Mall General Trias.

The City of General Trias already have its recreational amenities like a Convention/Cultural Center, Sports Center, Sports Park w/ Grandstand (popular called Track 'n field), and a City Park at Barangay San Juan 2. Since its cityhood numerous renovations of public infrastructure are underway including the building of General Trias City Hall-Manggahan Annex and the takeover of the General Trias Medicare Hospital run by the provincial government [39] converted into the City of General Trias Medicare Hospital run by the city government.[40] The road-widening activities conducted to fill the increasing number of vehicles that passed through its roads especially in Arnaldo Highway, Governor Ferrer Drive, Crisanto M. De Los Reyes Avenue, and Governor's Drive.

General Trias would soon be more accessible with the C-6 Expressway's construction connecting North and South Luzon and the Cavite–Laguna Expressway's development connecting CAVITEX to SLEX. The expansion of the LRT Line 6 from Bacoor to Dasmariñas would also provide fast access from General Trias to Metro Manila.
