                    [Summary] => The province of Antique celebrated the biggest Binirayan Festival in its 32 years of existence  with month-long festivities all throughout April.


Thousands of Antiqueños flocked the plaza to witness the various activities of the festival, especially the impressive performance of tribes in the Malay-ati contest. The competition is Antique’s version of the Mardi Gras, with street dancing and a P100,000 prize for the winner. This year, the honor went to the Tribu Urukay of the Anini-y town.

                    [Summary] => Indecision is paralyzing. As when one is confronted by a series of major events and has to choose which one to cover. That was what happened to me yesterday. The result? I opted to monitor the goings-on on radio and television.


I had my eyes initially focused on Antique’s Binirayan Festival with the invitation of Gov. Sally Zaldivar-Perez dispatched earlier. Bookings in the fast ferry to Iloilo presented a problem. While debating on it, I received a phone call from Gov. Perez (a personal friend).
