-Cembo, a popular acronym for Central Enlisted Men's Barrio, has its beginnings in 1949, when the first batch of
enlisted servicemen from the Infantry Group, Philippine Ground Force, Florida Blanca, Pampanga arrived at the Fort
William McKinley (now Fort Bonifacio). They were directed to settle at big rolling open tract of land adjacent to the
North Gate (Gate I) which was mostly covered by a dense growth of cogon grass. The place was selected to be the site
for the housing area of the enlisted personnel of the Philippine Ground Force.

As the bulk of the whole command came later, the housing area became congested. Sgt. Teofilo Bautista, the Barrio
Lieutenant and Assistant Reservation Officer, was directed by the higher headquarter offices to lead a survey team for
the location of the unoccupied space in the vast sprawling reservation. Subsequently, other barrios were created like
West Rembo East Rembo, Comembo, and Pembo to accommodate the increasing population of the military personnel.

 Common type of housing
Apartments are mostly privately owned. Just like condominiums, they are located in the heart of the city where
commercial establishments, workplaces, universities, and public transportation are found.
A studio type apartment unit is similar to a studio type condo unit. It is a one-room house where the kitchen, dining,
and sleeping areas are located.

An apartment loft features high ceilings with an open floor plan with no interior walls. Its second level is used mostly as
the sleeping quarter. If you have a family, it does not offer much privacy, but it serves as a great bachelor pad.

A convertible is an apartment unit that has a space large enough to be walled off. You can turn these areas into distinct
living spaces that provide privacy and added comfort.

 Effect of climate, mountains, valleys, rivers, lakes and the like on transportation patterns, economic development,
and population distribution
climate
usally climate in cembo affects the health of the residences on the said brgy. because we know that most of us humans
don't have a strong body that can adopt easily in the environment or in the climate specially if the climate change to
fast.
mountains
i believe that mountains don't have a huge effect in brgy cembo because there is no mountain that is near in cembo
that can affect it easily.

valleys
also in valleys, there is no valley that is very near in brgy cembo, but im just worried regarding about the fault line
detected. because it's a big problem not only for brgy cembo but for other brgys also like brgy west rembo, east rembo
and etc. that fault line can make a huge problem for everyone. so i hope we can make a better plan to prevent it.

rivers and lake

as far as i know there is no lake near in brgy cembo, however there is a river that is very near in the said brgy and that is
pasig river. pasig river is a dead river that can harm the health of every one. because we know that pasig river has a dirty
water and lots of garbage.
Effect of highways, railroads, trucks routes, and other social interaction
highways and railroads truck routes results a very heavy traffic and inconvenience for everyone because we know that
vehicles produce lots of carbon dioxide that is not good for our body and for our environment.
Effect of environmental factors on current and future development
effect of environmental factors on current and future development
because of too much carbon dioxide produced by machines and vehicles, it may result to a heavy polution in air and
regarding also regarding about the water and electricity, we need to use it wisely because right now were suffering lots
of problems specially about our mother earth or our nature and we know that those thing are the things that we need
in order to leave in this world. regarding about the market places. brgy cembo dont have a problem with that because
they have a wet market near brgy outpost and its very convinient for everyone.

Current issues and controversy
-About oplan tokhang and one way parking
1.) Why one way parking?
Because lots of vehicle (cars, jeepneys, taxi) are being parked at public road and tend to add traffic and it minimize the
space of the road so the tendency, it causes clog.
2.) Oplan tokhang
Brgy cembo is also affected by that case and controversy because the officials are getting and making their self be
involve in that situation. They make sure that we are free from drugs.
3.) Some of the minors are having difficulties to cope up with this newly implemented law. So most of them are
being caught especially inside computer shops.
