no firing during holiday seasons


Some say christmas is not felt in davao...something that is best described by Mar Roxas's political slogan, "di ko ramdam." No fireworks,no hissing watusi, not even a "bomb" joke is shared. Not even a single pop of inflated paper bag is heard anywhere.
So what if others may say "di ko ramdam ang pasko sa dabaw" . We dabawenyo's have learned to live with it, anyway. With firecrackers banned, we are sure we will celebrate 2010 with lots of food, complete set of 13 lucky fruits. Most importantly,  we surely will welcome the year of the tiger in one piece.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!

The first 100 years of PHILIPPINE KOMIKS and CARTOONS



My pressssciouusss… the first 100 years of Philippine Komiks and Cartoons
I got hold of this book before it’s even sold at the National Bookstores nationwide and it makes me even prouder and happier. ‘got this from Boboy Yonson, the publisher and the present president of the SAMAHAN NGA MGA KARTUNISTA SA PILIPINAS (SKP).
All complete with his authentic doodles and signature.
Thanks to a dear friend, CHECHE, a fellow senior air traffic controller assigned at the Manila Area Control Center who is boboy’s best friend. (che is a brilliant photographer whose works can be found at www.ladyairbus.multiply.com)
This book is some treasure indeed!! Aliwan, Pinoy Klasiks, Wakasan, Funny Komiks, atbp… Flipping through each page reminds me of those times when I was in the elementary grades, tracing the works of the then great komiks illustrators. I learned from these masters. I never get tired drawing and redrawing their characters.

 I NEVER  regret buying this book.

(you may buy this book from national bookstore @ P1,500.00)

kamayo mindanao foundation inc...




Kamayo Mindanao Foundation (KMFI), Inc. formerly known as Kalisud Mo-Tabangan Ko Micro-enterprise Development for Community, Inc. (KMFI), paying homage to where it all started-Lianga, Surigao del Sur. Kamayo represents one of the indigenous people inhabiting the province of Surigao del Sur.
The foundation is an embodiment of the Enterprise Bank's Corporate Social Responsibility. However, beyond the slogans of development and beyond the statistical data of poverty and inequality, KMFI aims to demonstrate its services by putting a human face to development.
KMFI believes in Amarya Sen's argument which states that economic development is only a means and not an end itself and that human development is best articulated by improving the social conditions of the poor through capability approach.
