WELCOME TO BARANGAY KALAWISAN
CITY OF LAPU-LAPU
Welcome Message
Kalawisan derived its name from the word “Lawis” which means a strip of land situated at the seashore and surrounded by swampy areas or marshy land. During the post-liberation in 1944, Kalawisan was still a sitio of Brgy. Babag.
In 1955, through the efforts of the late Patricio Toring who was then a Municipal Councilor of Opon, Kalawisan got its independence from being a sitio of Brgy. Babag to a separate barangay under the Municipality of Opon, now known as Lapu-Lapu City.
Today, Barangay Kalawisan is a thriving community. Mainly a residential urban area where residents can live comfortably within the City of Lapu-Lapu, with developments of subdivisions and several commercial establishments.
Kalawisan, through the leadership and vision of Barangay Captain, Hon. Arsilito Pejo, implements modern technology and IT solutions for the benefit of it’s constiutents and effeciency of delivering Barangay Services. Partnering with Nextstepx Solutions Co., Barangay Kalawisan is equip with high resolution AI enhanced CCTV security and offers online services through the Barangay Integrated System where people can now transact online.
