General Note
  • General note - Arkong Bato (Valenzuela, Bulacan). In 1886, a dispute over their respective boundaries arose between Polo and Malabon. A study was made on the exact and acceptable boundary and its result was made the basis of the marker that would draw the line between the two towns. A stone arch was erected in 1888 by the incumbent capitan-municipal of Polo, Don Mariano Velilla. In February 1975, a sand and gravel truck bumped the marker causing it to crumble. The present mayor, Gerry S. Angeles, took steps to restore the arch to its original appearance.
