History

On June 8, 1964, around 18 families of

Signal Corps personnel of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) were relocated from Diliman, Quezon City to an area in Fort Bonifacio, with the assistance of the Signal Service Batallion of the Philippine Army.[4][5] That area was later called Enlisted Men's (EM's) Signal Barrio, which was inspired by the corps' name.[6] It was formally established when it was reinforced by then-AFP Chief of Staff General Alfredo Santos on January 25, 1965.[4] An association composed mostly of the wives of the corps personnel, led by Clarita Manalili, petitioned to then-President Diosdado Macapagal to separate EM's Signal Barrio from Fort Bonifacio and award it to the residents. Macapagal then signed Proclamation No. 462 on September 29, 1965, which excluded it from the military camp and called it as AFP EM's Village; the proclamation took effect but was not implemented.[4]
