Numancia Overtakes Banga, The Beautiful
“More pain, more gain”. And this is true in Numancia, Aklan. After a most painstaking efforts of the Numanciahanons, in the last eight years, they finally got the number one spot in the province of Aklan.
Numancia dethroned the Municipality of Banga as number one in “Gawad Ng Pangulo Sa Kapaligiran” contest. Banga, the beautiful until last year was consistently number one in the Clean and Green. This year, Banga lost it to Numancia which is now number four. Banga even lost the throne, not only to Numancia, but to Malinao which is second and to Balete which is third.
What did Numancia, Malinao and Balete do to overtake Banga in “Gawad ng Pangulo Sa Kapaligran?” of course Banga did not sleep on its laurels. It must have continued its efforts to maintain its supremacy in the Clean and Green. However, the effort done may have been lesser than the efforts exerted individing by the top three towns which overtook Banga, the Beautiful.
Numancia, all the people under the leadership of Mayor Ernesto I. Templonuevo (EI). According to him the triumph, the success all belongs to Numanciahanons.
“We have saba banana, lakatan and latondan plantation. We have hy-bred rice to be harvested soon. We have vegetables, we have vermiculture in Numancia. We practice scientific waste management,” EI pointed out after winning first. According to him, the Numancia town plaza, the roads from Poblacion Numancia leading to Kalibo, to Lezo, to Makato, to Albasan and interior barangays are all clean with white painted stones along the boarders both sides.
The school grounds, barangay halls are all clean. The comfort rooms are clean and even smell sweet especially in the Municipal building. The Numanciahanons had inculcated in them the virtue of cleanliness and orderliness that they avoid scattering waste by the road sides and public places.
Maybe one deterrent to the supremacy of Banga, the Beautiful in “Gawad Ng Pangulo Sa Kapaligiran” is due to the present Mayor himself.
He may have lost cooperative of some of his cooperators in the implementation of the clean and green program. For instance, his closure of Sampaguita Street in front of the “Baeay it Banganhon”, Poblacion, Banga may have caused lost of cooperation. As of last month, the two Banga SB members, Hon. Arturo R. Teodosio, Sr. and Hon. Rodolfo R. Sta. Maria had questioned Mayor Jeremy n. Fuentes why he closed to traffic the said street. It is said that Hon. Sta. Maria and Hon. Teodosio are his close allies in Banga Sangguniang Bayan.
Last year former Banga Mayor Sergio R. Rigodon asked why he (Mayor Jeremy Fuentes) closed Sampaguita Street. Mayor Fuentes responded: “Kon kamo mat–a ogaling ro Mayor pagusto mat–a kamo.” (If you were the Mayor, you can do what you wanted.)
There must be other reasons why some Banganhons have weaning interest in Clean and Green. This is something for Mayor Jeremy N. Fuentes to discover. It is so heartbreaking for the people of Banga the Beautiful to hand out the title which they have for quite a long time.
It is so heartwarming for all the Numanciahanon under the leadership of Mayor Templonuevo to receive the thrown for which they have painstakingly and diligently labored. This throne is something to hold and protect. Numancia must maintain the title by working more with energy Numanciahanon cooperating.
The verdict is there. Numancia is first, Malinao – second, Balete – third, and Banga – fourth.
Well, Numancia is “Clean and Green’ with more rice, vegetables and fruits; livestock too. Can you add for more or just one aspect in “Gawad Ng Pangulo Sa Kapaligiran?” can you add “safety”?
Our roads can be a little more “SAFE” by restoring the sidewalks’. Demolish the fence on the sidewalks and remove the shrubs or flower plants. Restore the sidewalks to the pedestrians so that they will be safer walking by the road side. /MP mailto:madyaas_pen@yahoo.com
