Malipayon nga Kapistahan Kabarangay
The month of May was full of festivities in the barangays and I am so honored and privileged to have been part of most of these events. The barangay event that really is closest to my heart is the Barangay Fiesta of my very own barangay where I reside in, Brgy. M.V. Hechanova, Jaro, Iloilo City.Gapasalamat gid ako sa mga opisyales ka akun barangay kag mga kabarangay nga mainit gid ang pag-akomodar sa akun halin sa pag-umpisa ko nga maging residente sang barangay. Asta sang pag-selebrar sa kapistahan, daw halos adlaw adlaw ginaabi-abi gid ako sang maayu sa mga okasyon nga ginaareglar para ihiwat ang kapistahan. Ginhambal ko gani sa mga nag-organiza kag sa mga pumuluyo nga indi ako ya bisita sa mga okasyon kay tagadira ako nga barangay kag malipayon gid ako nga gahalin ako sa nasambit nga barangay.I have met a lot of people who have truly influenced me and in one way or another taught me something from the trisikad association members and officers, to the homeowners association officers and members, to the security guards, small business owners, urban poor members, organization association members, the little kid in San Isidro Village, to the young mom from phase II of Grand Plains, to the couple residing in the house beside mine, to the barangay officials, tanods, health workers, social workers, and the like. I am sincerely thankful of their warm welcome and utmost trust in me.Sa mga pinalangga ko nga kabarangay indi lang sa brgy. MV Hechanova kag sa mga kabarangayan sa Jaro kundi sa 180 ka barangay sa Syudad sang Iloilo, gapasalamat gid ining inyo amigo sang inyo maayu nga pag-akomodar sa akun diri sa Syudad. Tinguhaan ko gid nga pagaserbisyuhan ko kamu sang maayu kag husto.I believe that the projects of the city will not be successful without the support of the barangays. They are the most basic community and closest to the people we serve. Amu man na gani kung nga-a nalunsar ang Search for Excellence in Barangay Governance.Gin-inisyar ini nga proyekto ni Councilor LEX kaupod ang DILG Iloilo City, Jaycees Iloilo, ABS CBN Iloilo, SM City Iloilo kag ginasuportahan ka Lokal nga gobyerno sang Syudad. Tani ang proyekto nga ini makadala sang sige nga pagUGYON kag pagProgreso sang kabarangayan para sige nga mapasadya ta indi lang sa tini-on sang kapistahan kamu kabarangay kundi sa kada adlaw adlaw diri sa Syudad sang Iloilo.Ini ang inyo amigo, abyan kag primo sa Syudad sang Iloilo, Ang Tingog sang Kabataang Ilonggo nga gaulikid sa katigulangan kag sa kababainhan, gasiling, para sa kauswagan sang Syudad sang Iloilo, UGYON Kabataang Ilonggo, UGYON Iloilo.

Keeping Old Friends
A good and real friend is said to be one who is be able to keep and sustain long term relationships especially with his old friends. Maintaining any kind of relationship is a challenge but it is something worth working on since real friends are few.
Sang nagligad nga mga senemana pagkatapus sang medyo madugay-dugay na nga tini-on, natagaan ako tsansa makapa Manila liwat para maging head delegate sang Syudad sa pag-selebrar sang Makati foundation day. Bilang Chairman sa Komitiba sang Domestic kag Internasyonal Affairs, amu na nga mga tini-on mapabaskog pa gid ang lokal nga mga kaalyado ka yang Makati sister city ta man. Sa mga tini-on nga may pahuway ako, daw nalipay ako nga makita ang akun mga abyan halin pa sang high school. Daw kanami ka pamatyagan nga ara gyapun ang pagka-ayuhay bisan indi na pirmi gakit-anay. Pareho man sang mga abyan ko sa kolehiyo kag pagkatapus kolehiyo nga nakita ko man kag nakaupod. Kanami sang tsansa nga ginhatag para makalagas sa tyempo nga wala na kami kaisturyahanay. Ang iban sa ila may mga asawa na, kabataan, mga may negosyo kag iban pareho ko man naelehir nga gahatag serbisyo publiko.
Apparently, if a relationship started out well and was firmly established, regardless of the lack of physical presence and constant communication, the friendship will remain and may be as strong as ever. It’s so nice to reminisce the growing up days and the people who were with you through your up’s and down’s. Just recently, a good friend of mine who is also a scion of a political family visited Iloilo. It was nice catching up on lost time and I’m happy to see my friends getting established in their own careers and becoming successful.
I am blessed to have real friends who have been with me throughout the years. I am also blessed to have found new friends here in Iloilo City from my doctorate class, from my public service career and from the gatherings and events I visit. I hope to cultivate and strengthen these relationships so that I continue to have quality friendships.
Gapati ako wala sa padamu-damu sang kilala ang maging maayu nga abyan kundi sa kalidad sang mga abyan nga may ara kita kag kung paanu natun mapasiguro nga ara gid sila mintras tanto.
I hope all of us will treasure and cherish these priceless people who come into our lives and let us value them and let us find ways to make them stay.
