Foreboding Silangan Cliffs
Silangan,
a coastal village in Northern Mogpog in the periphery of Datum Station Balanacan, the
point zero reference for Luzon Datum of 2011, therefore the geodetic center
of the Philippines, is still hardly reached by many Marinduquenos. Access to
Silangan by car or motorcycle particularly during rainy days render it impassable, so visitors prefer just going to Silangan by boat from Argao.

Farm-to-Market Road in Sitio Basyao, Silangan. Local folks are beginning to realize that they live in a very unique place that people would like to experience.
The
four-kilometer stretch of rough road from Argao to Silangan is punctuated by a 100-meter
concreted road between Argao and Hinanggayon. The main road is
cemented at Silangan central.
Residents recently requested Cong. Lord Allan
Velasco for concreting of a farm-to-market road in Sitio Basyao that also
provides a trail leading to Datum Station Balanacan.
