Book Week in Inabanga Bohol

  If the current interest in books and transformation of students into voracious readers are the gauge, then the celebration in Inabanga of the 75th National Book Week was a success,

  The celebration that has become a tradition especially for local libraries revolved around the theme Kaaya-ayang Magbasa, sa Kapaligirang Kay Ganda.

  Highlighting the celebration were the book display at the lobby of the municipal hall and an information quiz that focused on women who pioneered and excelled in the field of arts, sports, history and sciences.

  Vice Mayor Wenceslao Lao welcomed the participants composed of three senior students per delegation from all public and private schools in the municipality - the Saint Paul's Academy (SPA), Southern Inabanga High School (SIHS) and Inabanga High School (IHS).

  Corazon dela Torre of SIHS bagged the first place while Ma. Verzomena Estillore and Aldrian John Añana both of SPA landed on the 2nd and 3rd places.

  The distribution of certificates and monetary prizes to the winners capped the activity. Non-winners also received certificates and consolation prizes.- Sunday Post

I suggest that the provincial and city governments should honor Ong Guat with a posthumous award in recognition of his efforts to be the founder of a business empire in Bohol, which has presently employed thousands of Boholanos presently. I think everybody agrees that his store sparked business to its fullest heights today. Fred Ong and his wife Babs Gonzaga we
