Jemuel Garcia, Jr., a 20-year old Physical Education major from the Western Visayas State University, Iloilo City and the only Aklanon of the twelve 2008 Bayer Young Environmental Envoys, showcased an Environmental Awareness Dance Drama in partnership with the Municipality of Kalibo and the Kalibo Council for Culture and the Arts (KCCA) on September 8, 2008 at the APSTA Centre, Kalibo.
The dance drama showcased three production themes: "Trahedya de Payatas" – dramatization of the Payatas Tragedy, "Tapon, Tapon, Tapon Mo" – an interpretation of the Filipino version of Fur Elise by Ludwig Van Beethoven, and "Wer Na U? The Frank Exposé – a dramatization of the recent flooding put in context for the text messaging generation.
Garcia is set to represent the Province of Aklan in the Bayer National Eco-Camp on September 20-24, 2008 in Manila.
Kalibo Mayor Raymar Rebaldo commended Garcia’s achievement and applauded him for serving as a role model to the youth. Rebaldo exhorted students and performers of the KCCA which the mayor himself chairs to excel in whatever field they are in and not to forget their focus on the environment following the flash flood that ravaged the Ati-Atihan town two months ago.
Garcia is a former member of the KCCA when he was attending school at the Regional Science High School for Region VI. /MP
