Hugging the dazzling Macajalar Bay on the northern coast of Mindanao is Cagayan de Oro City––the jewel of the province of Misamis Oriental. On a clear day, from atop the foothills that link CDO to its neighboring Bukidnon, you can spy the island of Bohol across the Bay where it flows into the pristine Bohol Sea. The charm of the city, however, disguises the fact that it is also a boomtown––building a flourishing economy on the wholesale and retail trade, manufacturing, automobile repair, agriculture, fishing, forestry, BPOs, and tourism. Misamis Oriental, in fact, is the third biggest contributor to Northern Mindanao’s development, with Cagayan de Oro holding sway as its regional center.
Once part of Southeast Asia’s ancient maritime trading network, CDO has been dubbed the “Gateway to Northern Mindanao.” The reverse is also true. It is also “Mindanao’s Gateway to the Visayas,” allowing Northern Mindanao to hold its post as one of the three major growth centers in southern Philippines, with Cagayan de Oro as its commercial and industrial hub. Its location is undeniably significant. With a coastline on the Macajalar Bay, a deep-water harbor, the Port of Cagayan de Oro has long been one of the country’s major industrial ports and the busiest government port in Northern Mindanao. The bay also boasts one of the richest fishing grounds in Northern Mindanao, and with the completion of a massive rehabilitation project, the port has become the largest international and domestic seaport in the country.
Taking from the English of its name “River of Gold,” CDO is best loved as “The City of Golden Friendships,” owing to the warmth and hospitality of its people. Beyond that, it has also come to be known as “The City of Golden Opportunities,” brought on by the accelerated growth the metropolis has been evincing. To date, CDO is considered the regional growth capital of Northern Mindanao allowing investments to pour into the city––thus winning the honor of being selected as one of the country’s “Top Five Most Competitive Cities” ––outranking even Makati. Although the city’s economic and industry growth has been rapid, CDO still maintains its charming rural feel. This gives Cagayan de Oro a rustic, gentle appeal with little of the stressful bustle that normally comes with development.
This is why Vista Land, through Vista Estates, believes that Northern Mindanao is the ideal city to master plan a breathtaking township. An amazing place to live, work, and simply enjoy life.
