Laguna Province is located in which region?

• A. Region 3
• B. Region 4-A
• C. Region 2
• D. Region 4-B

Answer: (B)

Regional divisions group provinces for administration and development, and Laguna sits within CALABARZON, officially Region IV-A, on the southern part of Luzon near Metro Manila. CALABARZON’s name comes from its member provinces: Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon, which is why Laguna is in Region IV-A. This region is distinct from Region III (Central Luzon), Region II (Cagayan Valley), and Region IV-B (MIMAROPA, which includes Palawan, Mindoro, Romblon, and Marinduque).
