Do you remember our Work/Obla Series? Well, in case you don’t, it is our attempt to feature our kailiyans who are doing interesting jobs. For those new to this blog, you might want to read our introduction of the series here and you might want to read our interview with Jay Watan, an Internet entrepreneur here. Incidentally, Jay has a blog (Blog of a Siomai Addict) which you might want to visit.
The second person we are featuring is Margie Abella Lumawan (above right). Margie is a Bible translator and, if you don’t know already, she is blogging at Gandang Igorota. Her blog was among the first blogs I visited before I started this blog and I was touched by her post, Kalanguya Dreams where I made my first ever comment in a blog. Well, I was encouraged by her response and we became blogger friends since then. Thanks Margie.
But of course Wil Reyes ain’t the only one who knows how to use a notebook computer. Thanks to Kent Sinkey for sending us the picture. Visit Kent’s site if you are looking for pictures of flowers from the boondocks.
While researching on the Tabuk cityhood law, we came across this Tabuk situationer report (PDF File) which presents a comprehensive picture of the town’s socio-economic condition, the challenges it faces, and proposed solutions to these challenges.
Whoever made the report deserves a gold medal because it is well done and comprehensive. We hope that every local government unit would have a similar report so their officials, particularly the newly elected ones, will not be groping in the dark wondering what to do while they are in office.
Let’s join our Ifugao kailiyans as they celebrate Ifugao Day this coming Monday, June 18. The above photos were taken during previous Ifugao Day celebrations by Darwin Mangili at mybanaue.com.
