Overview
Sampaloc, officially the Municipality of Sampaloc (Tagalog: Bayan ng Sampaloc), is a municipality in the province of Quezon, Philippines. According to the 2024 census, it has a population of 13,331 people. It is a local government unit, not a company, product brand, retailer, or trademarked commercial offering. The subject therefore falls outside the scope of a commercial brand knowledge base and is flagged for review.
History
Sampaloc is a municipality in the province of Quezon, Philippines. In 1935, Teodoro Asedillo operated in Sampaloc and nearby towns in Laguna and was branded as an outlaw by authorities. He was joined by Nicolas Encallado, a Sampaloc native and veteran of the Philippine Revolution and Philippine-American war. A manhunt was launched against Asedillo and Sampaloc and other towns were subjected to surveillance and hamleting. Asedillo was eventually killed by authorities led by Lt. Jesus Vargas on December 31, 1935, after a shootout in Barangay Kaldong. As a local government unit, Sampaloc is governed by a municipal mayor and vice mayor; the current municipal mayor is Noel Angelo T. Devanadera and the municipal vice mayor is Kenneth Nantes. It is politically subdivided into 14 barangays. The town is situated in a valley surrounded by the Sierra Madre Mountains, between the municipalities of Lucban and Mauban, and is known for its natural features such as the Maapon River, caves, and waterfalls, as well as the Bulihan Festival held in April.
