                    [Summary] => If only a tree could talk — or laugh.


That’s what a dao tree at the University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB) campus must be doing now.

The reason: It survived deadly typhoon "Milenyo," which uprooted, felled or dismembered many much younger trees in the sprawling UPLB complex last Sept. 28.

The leaning dao tree, about a century-old, in front of the UPLB Student Union building had been recommended for cutting as early as two years ago.
