The Hidden Cultural Admiration with in a known Filipino Artist
He values Cordillera culture. His art works and films focus on cultural awakening. I thank God for we had the chance to interview him though he has a busy schedule. We learned lot from this man. He is defined as Simple, Intelligent and Humble.
The one only Kidlat Tahimik will be considered as a great contributor for cultural integrity. Thanks Kuya, Tatay, Sir. You served as an inspiration for us.

In terms of commitment
The show, Power to Unite with Elvira entertained two MasCom instructors from the University of the Philippines. One of the guests said that dealing with communication is not just a glamour career. It means hard work and discipline. It also includes passion, commitment and public service.
As a Development Communication (DevCom) student, I’m happy to hear this statement from them, it helped me understand more our hardships. Somehow, they inspired me. Even though we are stressed with all our paper works, we still have to rise and face the challenge as Public Servants.

ALL ABOUT WORDS AND ACTS
I attended the mass last Sunday and I was really inspired.
Based on the script, Jesus said that it is not what man takes in that makes him bad, rather the goodness of man’s heart reflects the real man and the son of God.
True! It is not all about staying at the church praising and praying for how many hours but it’s all about what we do outside the church for a long period of time. Attendance in the church does not determine the real act of a man.
It’s not all about what we do during Sunday, but what we do from Monday to Sunday.
This is a simple reflection of who we really are.

D¹°= D³
With the theme, “A decade of dashing, daring and determined,” University Secretary ma’am Grace Bengwayan converted it to mathematical equation, D¹°= D³.
I thank God for this week because we were able to celebrate a decade for DevCom program. It has been 10 years f sacrifices and struggles in which we owe to the pioneering batch. Yes! It is worth to be celebrated.
I will never forget this week. I learned so many things from the opening of the week until the closing. It was not just a week full of fun, rather it dared to inspire every faculty member and student to strive harder until DevCom would become a college.
This is it! I realized that we really have a great responsibility in this institution. What touches me most is the 8th Little Victories. I would just have to keep inside my realizations in this real world.
I hope and pray that we could also accomplish what our brothers have accomplished during their internship.
Indeed, this celebration is of great help not only for me, but for us, the lower years.
Mabuhay DevCom!

"FOR-EVER MODEL"
Thank God for sharing maam Bets with us
INSPIRATION
“Small but influential!” That’s how I describe her. I really thank God because I met her. For all of us, she is an inspiration. That is why even if we have complicated schedule, we volunteered because we know we will learn many things from her. In short, we believe that this sacrifice is worth it.
CHALLENGING
She shared to us their struggles as pioneering batch of Development Communication Program. Their struggle before was really different to what should have been our struggle this generation. As a respect to every part of their sacrifice, we accept then a great responsibility for us to continue and accomplish. We will continue what they’ve started.
MADER BETS,
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You for coming back just to teach your younger sisters and brothers. With this, you’ve also taught us how to value and sustain the society where we belong, the DevCom Society. We will maximize this short span of time learning with you. Thank You for sharing with us your skills. You’re a MODEL mader Bets. For-ever MODEL.

"Moving Forward, Caring with out End"
“One of the memorable events happened in my life this year is when I finally receive my cap!” For her, this is just the starting point of everything. This capping builds a strong foundation for her to move forward, and to care with out end.
My cousin said that her cap is small in size but its equivalent to a great responsibility. Roan Jill is the youngest in our generation. We have 1 year gap so we had the chance to develop not only our relationship as first cousins but as friends, or best friends even.
We seem to be batch mates, and we know each other better and deeper. We share stories and struggles of our lives, families, studies and friends. Since childhood, high school, and college days, we were always together.
Time has come to take her away from me. We were just given 1 year to enjoy each other’s presence this college. We are all residing at the same house before, but now, she has to transfer to accompany our grandma in her house somewhere in Tuba. I was really hurt to know it in the first place, although we could have chance to see each other, unfortunately, we are affected through our busy days.
In short, I miss her so much!
We attended her capping at Easter College, August 9. I realized that I can’t express my feelings, that I miss her so much. I suppose there’s already a gap between us which I accept given our distance from each other. On the other hand, this distance helps us rebuild our closeness.
Our parents and elders bonded us so close since we were young which we carry until now. Our first cousins seem to be our real brothers and sisters. One family member graduate each year, leaves and finds work, because that’s life. Yes! We can’t be together for-ever!
I miss her. I miss all my cousins.
Jill jill, galpook, roan, roan jill, saso! (hehehe) Congratulations!! Do your best to surpass all the challenges that may come your way. Among the girls in our family, you’re the only one who took nursing.
Love you so much insan! Ajah! Keep up! We can do this!

F4!
Boys and girls, young and old are really excited when 6:00 pm arrives just to watch the popular Korean telenovela, Boys over Flowers. I like both the funny side and the romance this story gives.
I’ve already watched the CD of this but I still keep on watching it, (addidct!hehe). The story is awesome! It’s all about LOVE and FRIENDSHIP.
This situation really happens in reality and sometimes it’s a difficult thing to deal with. Makino Tsukushi as Jan Di in the story is courageous enough to face the challenge, and that I appreciate. Doumyouji Tsukasa, Jun Pyo as the leader of F4 was attracted to Jan Di’s bravery. She doesn’t show her interest to their group unlike the other girls in the school who fawn at him rather she shows her irritation especially to Jun Pyo’s attitude towards his school mates. At the end, Jun Pyo fell in love with her.
This story shows how the characters sacrificed to consider many factors.
For those who haven’t watched this movie, it’s high time for you to check it out!

“SINING AT PAKIKIBAKA SA HULING SONA NI GLORIA”
People were gathered at People’s Park in Baguio City to watch the live SONA of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. The heavy rain is not a hindrance for the viewers but the speech of PGMA seems to reflect different comments and reactions.
After the GMA’s SONA public viewing, the people had a march rally to show continuous solidarity as they shout, “ANG TAO, ANG BAYAN, TULOY-TULOY ANG LABAN!” This is also to show strong disagreement of Cha-cha and Con-Ass. “CHA-CHA NI GLORIA, AYAW NG MASA!”
I attended the activity as a student and as a citizen of this country. This is for me to understand the two sides of the world, to seek for truth, and to assess what can I do as a student or as a youth to address these societal problems if our leaders or PGMA can’t address it.
Speakers representing different progressive organizations expressed their critique of GMA’s SONA.
“I’m not sure if GMA belongs to this planet,” said Windell Bolinget, Secretary-General of Cordillera Peoples Alliance (CPA). He wonders the statements of GMA because accordingly, everything she says can’t be seen or felt in our country, that’s why he asks the source of the date she reported to the public.
I strongly agree with what Bolinget said. Reality comes from the actual situation in our country and it is based through the experiences of the people. A powerful individual with high position can’t just give a positive conclusion and can’t hide this reality because the truth still comes from the people with such experience.
One of the OFW’s from Hongkong shared their hardships to the public. She added their contribution to the Philippine economy but the fact remains they still suffer. The government collects tax from their remittance. “We planned not to remit because three days of not remitting will surely fail GMA’s economy,” said Jocelyn.
Furthermore, Chei Galvez, spokesperson of Tongtongan ti Umili said, “SONA must not contain statistics to steal glory rather this must serve as a reflection of the truth and reality in our country.
She stated;
“SA HULING SONA NI GLORIA, MAGPAPATULOY AND DAGUNDONG NG PROTESTA,
MAGPAPATULOY ANG PAGKILOS NG MAMAMAYAN!”

For whom is Human Rights
“Would Jesus discriminate?” This is just one of the meaningful statements whom Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Transgenders (LGBTs) are showing to the people around
The Baguio Pride Network (BPN) organized a grandmarch which aims to fight against discrimination among LGBTs held at People’s Park, June 28.
Congressman Lisa L. Maza, representative of Gabriela Women’s Partylist said that they are in solidarity with the struggle of the LGBTs.
“We believe that there is a need to respect the rights and dignity of LGBTs as human.”
Meanwhile, Mark De Vera, a fourth year student of Baguio City National High School (BCNHS) who is waiting for the boxing to start in the said venue shared his stand on the activity.
According to him, “we have to exercise what should have been our rights. Everybody, boy or girl, lesbian or gay, bisexual or transgender has no reason not to exercise human rights.”
Maza challenged the LGBTs with her strong solidarity message;
“Forward the struggle of LGBTs
Forward the struggle for Human Rights
Fight for the recognition of equal rights
Forward the struggle against discrimination!”

EnvironMentaL DegreDatiOn
Environmental Degradation
Mankayan Benguet – The residents of Poblacion, Mankayan Benguet is now facing continuous erosion, and sinking due to the long term effects of the Lepanto Consolidated Mining Company.
I can’t explain my hard feelings on the ongoing and non stop destruction happening in my hometown, Mankayan Benguet.
It’s been three years since I left my school Mankayan National High School (MNHS). Based on the news, the sidewalk, the administration building and the canteen were destroyed already. It’s hard to think that I can’t do anything and I’m just here studying. All I have to do is to pray so that the destruction will not get worse. This situation also tests the unity of the community. They should also strengthen their solidarity to give justice on the past destructions, lost land and houses.
