Cotabato, Philippines, Pictures (391 words)
Cotabato, chartered city in the southern Philippines, on southwestern Mindanao Island, in northern Maguindanao Province.
Cotabato is the main commercial center of southwestern Mindanao Island, but its swampy delta and remoteness have kept it from achieving the commercial importance of other cities on Mindanao, such as Davao and Zamboanga.
The city's population is diverse ethnically and reflects the in-migration of Catholic Filipinos from the north to this once Muslim-dominated area.
