Valentine In The Capitol


"Aklan: I Can’t Stop Loving You", is the theme of "Valentine’s Concert at the Park" held at ABL Sports Center, Estancia, Kalibo on Valentine’s Day, in the evening of February 14. It was scheduled to be held in Goding Ramos Park, but due to intermittent shower, it was transferred to ABL Sports Center, Kalibo.

Aklan: I Can’t Stop Loving You! Was a free valentine show of songs and dances the Provincial Government of Aklan presented. It was a presentation of dances from Wadeford School, Garcia College of Technology, Northwestern Visayan Colleges, Soroptimist International, Aklan College Batch 73, Aklan Provincial Accounting and Engineering Offices, Catholic Women’s League, Aklan College/Aklan Catholic College Alumni for all Seasons and members of the Aklan media who sang the finale: "Ikaw; Minamahal; and I Can’t Stop Loving You."

Due to the pressure of work of the members of the Aklan media, some were not able to make it. Led by their legal consultants Atty. Kel Tolentino and Atty. Diego Luces, Ramil Irodestan – CBIS; Venus Villanueva – PIA; Lynette R. Mendoza–RGMA-DYRU; Chita Dela Cruz Heap–Aklan Reporter; and Ambrosio R. Villorente - Madyaas Pen joined the Finale Chorale Singing. Roben Laserna – CBIS who joined the practices got sick and was unable to participate.

The presentation was highly the show of love and respect to our "beloved Aklan" province. Vice Governor Gabrielle V. Calizo gave her welcome message of love to the visitors who nearly filled up the ABL Sports center.
Governor Carlito S. Marquez in his message was so poetic. He exhibited in his message his genuine concern to effect rapid development of Aklan and liberate the Aklanons from the bondage of poverty.

Congressman Florencio T. Miraflores, likewise spoke of his program to hasten Aklan’s economic development.

Ms. Lyneth R. Mendoza of RGMA-DYRU served as lady dean of ceremonies, Ms. Josephine T. Villegas led in the singing of the Philippines National Anthem, and the New Jerusalem Chorale and Squirettes of Mary Immaculate gave the Doxology. /MP
