The hot summer months of April and May are particularly considered the best times of year for mountain trekking, scuba diving, or suntanning on the white sandy beaches of the Philippines.

This is also the period when most festivals throughout the country take place.
With thousands of islands, the Philippines remains a fabulous destination all year round.

You can certainly get into a variety of activities that suit your idea of a dream vacation - from bird watching to whale watching, mountain climbing or scuba diving, hiking or surfing, white water rafting or spending a quiet day by its white sandy beaches simply enjoying a relaxing massage in one of its luxurious spas.

For sure, a trip to this tropical paradise anytime of the year is a unique experience that you'll remember for years to come...and a compelling reason to keep you coming back!

The Municipality of Kawit (formerly Cavite El Viejo; Filipino: Bayan ng Kawit) is a 1st class urban municipality in the province of Cavite, Philippines. According to the 2000 census, it has a population of 62,751 people in 13,510 households. It has a land area of 16.7 square kilometers.
Kawit is the birthplace of Emilio Aguinaldo, the first president of the Republic of the Philippines. It is also home to the Aguinaldo Shrine.
The name Kawit is derived from the Tagalog word kawit (hook) which is suggestive of its location at the base of a hookshaped shoreline along Manila Bay extending to the tip of Cavite City. Kawit was the most thriving settlement prior to the coming of the Spaniards. In fact, it provided the first anchorage of the Spaniards in the province, whence colonization and proselytization of the Christian religion began, spreading to all corners of the province.
Legend, however, gives another version on how the town got its name. One day a Spanish visitor asked a native blacksmith about the name of the village. The latter was busy at the time pounding on the anvil a piece of hot metal that looked like a hook. He hesitated to speak, not understanding what the stranger was asking, but when pressed for an answer, and thinking that he wanted to know what he was doing, he merely said kawit (hook). The Spaniards left muttering the word kawit. In the course of the time the word kawit evolved into "cawite," and finally "cavite".
For a long time the place was called by the Spaniards "Cavite el Viejo" or Old Cavite to distinguish it from "Cavite la Punta" or "Cavite el Puerto," the commercial port and naval base (now Cavite City) whence came many Spanish marines on shore leave who made frequent visits to Cavite el Viejo, eventually turning it into a red light district. The bad reputation of the place, however, was completely wiped out when it was placed under the spiritual supervision of the Jesuits during the administration of Manila Archbishop Miguel Garcia Serrano(1618-1629) by placing St.Mary Magdalene as Patron saint of the town.
Cavite el Viejo was then a big town, comprising the municipality of Kawit today, Cavite la Punta (now Cavite City), Noveleta (called Tierra Alta by the Spaniards), and Imus. One after the other these three barrios seceded and became independent municipalities.
Its current chief executive is Federico "Hit" Poblete, who is on his second tour of duty as the historical town's mayor. He used to be an undersecretary for the Department of Agrarian Reform under the Estrada administration after his first three terms as mayor (1988-1998).

Population of the Philippines...

Population growth and Philippine development
Rapid growth in the Philippine population poses a challenge to economic development but, at the same time, is a source of new opportunities.The population of the Philippines has increased fourfold in the last 50 years, from about 20 million in 1050 to today’s almost 80 million Filipinos. Although the country’s population growth rate declined from 3% in the 1960s to 2.3% in the 1990s, it is still considered high compared to neighbors like Thailand (at 1.4%) and Indonesia (at 1.6%). Over 1.8 million Filipinos are born yearly. As a consequence, there are over 28 million more people today in the Philippines than in South Korea and 15 million more than in Thailand, when in 1965 these countries had about the same population size.
