Lipa City 7

Lipa, officially the City of Lipa, is a first class component city in the province of Batangas in the Philippines. It is one of the three cities in Batangas aside from Batangas City and Tanauan)(Dendrocnide meyeniana), known for the stinging trichomes on its twigs.Lipa City is a recreational, religious, commercial, industrial and educational center. The city is also home to the Fernando Air Base, headquarters of the Philippine Air Force's Air Education and Training Command (AETC), known in military circles as the Baguio of the Armed Forces of the Philippines. The summer camp of the Air Force of the Philippines.The Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR) and South Luzon Expressway (SLEX)(10) Bornean Datus divided among themselves the purchased lands, the Batangas Bay were apportioned among the Dumangsil and Balkasusa Clans.It is however subject to conjecture whether the pre-historic Negritos 12,000 to 15,000 years age or the much later waves of Austronesian seafarers from 5,000 to 300 B.C. were able to settle along the coasts of Batangas into the inner lake region of Taal which was accessible to navigation through the Pansipit River, thus, the possibility of miscegenetic marriages and cross culture among the aboriginal inhabitants, the old settlers and the latter Dumangsil and Balkasusa Clans. Or whether violent wars had been waged between old inhabitants and new colonizers is uncertain too, incontrovertible proofs being wanting.
