Hi Trublue,
I’m sure he will be glad to be seen as a representative of the Cordilleras. Oo nga we do need a “Project Halsema” and decent people to lead our region. Thanks and cheers!

Hi adb,
Hooray to them indeed. We hope we have more like them in the military and in the country as a whole. Thanks.

Hi Lovelyn,

Owen adi, he is also iCordillera :-)

Hi Kayni,
Yup. Hope we have more like him who stand by their principles. Thanks.

Hi Jester,
Hehe, you reminded me of that movie. Siguro konsolasyon kadatayo ta at least adda pay lang ti “few good men”. But then again, a few good men/women will usually beat naman the alipores and the tutas of the powers that be.

Yup let’s also call them iPilipinas. Didn’t realize that Col. Querubin is Ilocano. Thanks for the info.

Hi Nashman,
Adda met piman ti saving grace ti PMA. At the rate bombs are exploding in Manila, I’m not sure na if Esperon is blindly obeying Gloria or whether it is the other way around. Thanks.

Province. His father was the late educator James Pooten and his mother was from Besao Proper (of the Bagano family). <br/><br/>We are very proud of Mng Basilio because we know he did what he did with full understanding that he took a great risk. He exposed his military career to certain peril and knew he had nothing to gain. This lends his act a thick and strong shade of heroism.<br/><br/>When faced with the same dilemma, every Igorot should take the path chosen by Maj. Basilio Pooten.
