He was the governor of Cebu province after World War II and served from 1945 until 1946.
Early life
Fructuoso Cabahug, born on January 20, 1897,[1] was the child of Narciso Cabahug and Cirila Barte from Mandaue City[2] and the brother of Sotero B. Cabahug, who became governor of Cebu from 1934 to 1937.[3][4] His wife was Esperanza Labucay, daughter of businessman Estanislao Labucay.[5] He was admitted to the Philippine Bar on January 24, 1925, and became a lawyer.[3]
Career
Fructuoso was an author, and the National Library of the Philippines holds a copy of the book he published in 1918 called The Beliefs and Ceremonies of the Native Doctors or Medicine Men in the Island of Cebu.[6]
He began his political career as a municipal councilor of Mandaue, Cebu.[7] On December 10, 1940, he was elected member of the Cebu provincial board together with Jose Leyson under the term of Governor Hilario Abellana.[8]
After the war, Cabahug was appointed as the governor of the province of Cebu by then President Sergio Osmeña.[9] His term started from 1945 until 1946, and his administration was tasked with the immediate concern of restoring the government in the provinces in the post-war era and sharing power with the Philippine Civil Affairs Unit.[7] To combat shortage of food supply, he distributed seeds to the people and urged them to cultivate their own food.[10] He encouraged cooperation with the Americans, issued an official advisory against profiteering and criminality, and requested that artesian wells that were owned privately would be open to the public.[7]
On February 7, 1954, then President Ramon Magsaysay appointed him as provincial board member and his brother, Sotero Cabahug, as acting economic coordination administrator.[11]
On May 18, 1959, he was appointed by then President Carlos P. Garcia as Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs to replace the late Juan Alcazaren.[12] He took his oath before Garcia with President Osmeña and Rep. Maximino Noel of Cebu in attendance.[13] He led the country's delegation to the Colombo Plan held in Singapore.[14]
Later years
Fructuoso died on December 24, 1961.[14]
