Özet:

 

On October 15, 2013 a magnitude 7.2 earthquake struck the Province of Bohol,
 damaging more than 73,000 structures. Among the damaged structures was
 church and bell tower located in the Municipality of Loboc, Bohol, both of which
 are declared cultural heritage sites. The buildings are privately owned properties
 of the Roman Catholic Church, but as declared Heritage Sites, they are also under
 the supervision of the National Historical Commission. This study sought to
 determine the measures undertaken by the tripartite stakeholders and agencies
 (LGU, Church and National Historical Commission) in the rebuilding and
 conservation of the damaged historical sites. It also intends to infer the impact of
 the damage to the municipality and its citizens. Lastly, it aims to formulate
 recommendations regarding the preservation or possible restoration of the
 damaged sites. The study revealed that at the forefront at the efforts to conserve
 the site is the National Historical Commission, with the help of parishioners who
 headed sectoral groups exerting considerable effort in raising funds. Tourism
 stagnated in the first few months after the incident, but reverted to normal levels
 when the ruins were turned into new tourism opportunities. Negative impact to
 tourism and economy is minimal. The parishioners are eager to restore the old church at any cost, but the NHC has
 indicated that it will be more practical to rebuild the old church rather than restore
 it due to safety and cost concerns. The loss of the sites were especially
 demoralizing and dispiriting to the inhabitants of Loboc. The study also revealed a
 gap in cooperation from the Local Government Unit with the other con.
