Lingayen ‘adopts’ GMA

-
LINGAYEN, Pangasinan — President Arroyo is now an adopted daughter of this capital town of Pangasinan.

The resolution officially making here an adopted daughter of Lingayen was presented to her yesterday by local officials during her visit.

Mayor Ernesto Castañeda Jr. read the resolution that embodies the adoption of the President as a daughter of this town during the inauguration of the Domalandan Bridge that coincided with the town fiesta.

The resolution cited that Mrs. Arroyo is also a Pangasinese because her late mother, former First Lady Eva Macaraeg-Macapagal, was from Binalonan town.

The resolution expressed the gratitude of the people of Lingayen for the construction of the P800-million Domalandan Bridge.

The bridge links Lingayen to the towns in western Pangasinan. It’s construction started in 2001 but was only finished after five years.Eva Visperas
