    In 1941 the Island of Panay Was Divided Into Three Provinces Antique, Capiz and Iloilo. When the Japanese Occupied Panay The Provincial Officials of Antique and Capiz Remained in Office as Japanese Puppets.

    In Iloilo However Provincial Governor Tomas Confessor Never Surrendered. On August 13th 1942 He Issued A Proclamation Establishing His Authority Over the Free Areas of Both Antque and Capiz in A Government Of FREE PANAY. To Head The Government in The Capiz Area Confessor Appointed Comelio Villareal As Supervising Deputy Governor.
