Agbiag, Bigueño!


The celebration of Vigan City Fiesta is held in honour of St. Paul the Apostle, the City's patron, has been a traditional doing of the City Government of Vigan and the bigueños every January 25, every year. Locals and tourists gather to experience and see the street dancing, carnivals, food fairs, and arts and crafts, adding to the attraction of this UNESCO World Heritage City.

But due to the pandemic, the traditional way of celebrating Vigan City Fiesta has stopped and changed. Last year, the City Government and the bigueños celebrated it through online. Many contest/competition happened through online like street dancing family edition, longganisa cook contest and many more.

Vigan City celebrates fiesta now in the new normal in a way that everyone can still feel the importance and essence of the said important occasion, well, at the same time, making sure everyone and everything is safe. We all know that the pandemic makes it hard for all of us to feel like everything is fine and normal, but we will be able to… maybe not feel the same exact thing, but feel closely to that emotion when we celebrate our fiesta.

We can contact our friends and family, talk about what we can do for that special day, dance like how we used to see the street dancers gracefully rule the street, we can also sing, and we can ask our moms or dads or anyone in our home that can cook to prepare some delicious food for that day and of course, we can help them, too. There are tons of ways we can celebrate the fiesta, and virtually, we can let our friends and family that are away from us join us.

  Dear Mr. President,           Hello Mr. President , I’m Jayson F. Rimay Grade 10 Student of Ilocos Sur National High School.

Senator Gordon who is the Chairman of the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee, probes on the COA report accuses the government of procuring overpriced medical supplies. As Secretary Francisco Duque III of the Department of Health as per your instruction continuously attends Senate probes and he is already addressing the deficiencies in the COA report which pertain to inventory matters in...

The Quality of Education continues in the midst of the Pandemic

The Quality of Education continues in the midst of the Pandemic     The CoVid-19 Crisis has significantly affected both social and economic sectors in the Philippines, one of them being the education sector. It has brought upon us many challenges and difficulties that are likely to have long-term effects on the potential of children.      As Sec. Briones had said, “Education is not going to be the same as education during my time or during your time. It’s going to change, and the change has already started. We already recognize the signals; we see the increased role of technology and science. We see the need to encourage not only our teachers but our learners to not only specialize and memorize; but to know many things, to know how to analyze, to know how to be objective, to know how to come to break a problem apart, and come up with a solution. And so, despite the too many challenges and problems during the educational era of the pandemic, education continues...
