                <text>A few years ago, a friend who had just returned from the United States told me, "I saw two of your books at the New York Public Library." Then a year or so later, another friend who worked as a librarian in America said to me, "You can consider yourself a fulfilled writer. You have been listed by the Library of Congress." Intrigued by those statements of friends, I asked my brother Ed to make a survey of libraries to find out where copies of my works, especially books, are located. A literary work is the writer's brain-child. To the author of the works in this Directory, it is a great pleasure to know that his "children" have spread to many countries around the world.</text>

              <text>ILOILO City – This city’s much celebrated Dinagyang Festival, represented by Tribu Pan-ay from Fort San Pedro National High School, clinched its eighth championship title at the Aliwan Fiesta 2024, held at the Cultural Center of the Philippines Complex in Pasay City on June 29. Maasin, Iloilo’s Tultugan Festival took second place.&#13;
&#13;
The world-renowned Dinagyang triumphed over 15 other competitors from across the nation, bringing home a grand prize of P1.5 million.&#13;
&#13;
Tultugan, on the other hand earning P750,000 and also claimed the Best Musical Accompaniment award.&#13;
&#13;
Aliwan Fiesta, organized annually by the MBC Media Group in collaboration with the Cultural Center of the Philippines and the cities of Manila and Pasay, showcases the cultural diversity of the Philippines through dance parades and float competitions of various festivals, earning its title as “the Philippines’ Grandest Fiesta.”&#13;
&#13;
“Iloilo has reigned supreme at the Aliwan Fiesta. We are incredibly proud of our city’s Dinagyang Festival and the province of Iloilo’s Tultugan Festival.  Through their outstanding performances, they have not only brought honor to our city and province, but have also strengthened the bonds that unite us as Ilonggos,” said Mayor Jerry Treñas.&#13;
&#13;
Dinagyang, an annual cultural and religious festival, showcases every January the historical and cultural heritage of Iloilo through elaborate dance routines, choreography, vibrant costumes, and powerful drumbeats.&#13;
&#13;
On the other hand, Tultugan, held every December, is dedicated to promoting and preserving the local bamboo industry, which has deep cultural and economic significance to Maasin and Iloilo Province.&#13;
&#13;
“This remarkable achievement is a testament to the commitment and hard work of our community, performers, artisans, and organizers,” said Treñas.&#13;
&#13;
Allan Tan, president of the Iloilo Festivals Foundation, Inc.  (IFFI), said Tribu Pan-ay’s “extraordinary effort and perseverance have rightfully earned you this championship. Well done to everyone involved.”&#13;
&#13;
Tan and IFFI chairperson Judgee Lopez Peña both accompanied the Iloilo contingents to the Aliwan.&#13;
&#13;
Tribu Pan-ay is this year’s Dinagyang Festival 2024 champion, earning it the right to represent Iloilo City in the Aliwan.&#13;
&#13;
The Dinagyang contingent also garnered the Best in Costume award and triumphed in the Tugtog ng Aliwan musical competition, adding an extra P100,000 to their winnings.&#13;
&#13;
Eric Divinagracia, the IFFI artistic director, said the key to the awarding-winning performance was delving “deep into the narratives and concepts of devotion and how we express it through our cultural practices and aesthetics.”&#13;
&#13;
“It’s about enhancing and deepening our understanding and presentation at each performance,” he added.&#13;
&#13;
Dinagyang also won the Aliwan Fiesta in 2023 (represented by Tribu Parianon), 2017 (Tribu Salognon), 2013 (Tribu Panaynon), 2012 (Tribu Pan-ay), 2011 (Tribu Pan-ay), 2010 (Tribu Paghidaet), and 2004 (Tribu Atub-Atub).&#13;
&#13;
THE WINNING PERFORMANCE. Tribu Pan-ay delivered a stunning street dance that won the top prize at the Aliwan Fiesta 2024. Their presentation depicted the historic moment of Christianity’s introduction to Panay Island, highlighting the rich cultural heritage and spiritual transformation of Iloilo.

&#13;
“Dinagyang has transcended itself. Time and again, it has proven that it can evolve into a much better festival, and present a more spectacular and creative showcase of what Ilonggo heritage and culture is all about,” said Treñas.&#13;
&#13;
Tultugan Festival earned the right to represent Iloilo Province to the 2024 Aliwan after winning as champion in the Kasadyahan contest of the 2024 Dinagyang Festival held in January.&#13;
&#13;
One of the standout features of the Tultugan Festival is the focus on music made from bamboo instruments. Participants craft and perform on instruments such as the bamboo organ, flutes, and other traditional percussion and wind instruments, creating a distinct and melodious sound that embodies the spirit of the community.&#13;
&#13;
According Gov. Arthur Defensor Jr., Dinagyang and Tultugan “not only highlight Iloilo’s vibrant culture but also strengthen our community bonds.&#13;

              <text>ILOILO City – The hard work and dedication exerted by the warriors, dancers, props, artists, and the entire team of Tribu Pan-ay contributed to their triumphant performance to bag the Aliwan Fiesta 2024’s champion trophy.&#13;
&#13;
Elvert Bañares, Iloilo Festivals Foundation, Inc. (IFFI), artistic director, said some tribe members even have “panata” or devotion and prepare well before their performance on Saturday.&#13;
&#13;
“They came in very prepared and they did excellently. They worked hard to represent Iloilo as best as possible,” Bañares told Panay News.&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
The concept of Tribu Pan-ay’s performances between the Dinagyang 2024 and Aliwan Fiesta remained the same, said Bañares.&#13;
&#13;
“It is a story of faith and devotion in a land called Pan-ay. Sir Tata Carado, our performers, our artists, and our team worked tirelessly to bring this concept to life,” said Bañares.&#13;
&#13;
Bañares, a renowned film director, producer, and multidisciplinary artist, said he witnessed how the tribe showed dedication, humility, and commitment during their preparation.&#13;
&#13;
“I always say this to the tribe as our guiding principle: There’s no victory in the absence of values and there’s never a defeat in the presence of readiness and dignity,” said Bañares.&#13;
&#13;
“This victory is for all Ilonggos and all Filipinos anywhere in the world. We hope that through the performances of our tribes, we can make you happy and proud. And that we deepen our spirituality, so we can be emotionally guided as we journey through life,” he added.&#13;
&#13;
Tribu Pan-ay of the Fort San Pedro National High School was adjudged the grand champion in the Dinagyang Tribes Competition at the 2024 Dinagyang Festival last Jan. 28.&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
Tribu Pan-ay received P25 million worth of school projects for Fort San Pedro National High School and the P1-million cash prize and a trophy.&#13;
&#13;
With their enduring spirit and talent, Tribu Pan-ay emerged victorious again after claiming the championship trophy and the P1.5-million cash prize in the Aliwan Fiesta 2024: Parade of Champions held in Manila on Saturday night. They &#13;
&#13;
On the other hand, the Tultugan Festival of Maasin, Iloilo, placed second in the Aliwan Fiesta cultural street dance competition.&#13;
&#13;
The festival showcases the vibrant celebration featuring bamboo instruments, highlighting the rich cultural heritage of Maasin.&#13;
&#13;
Eric Divinagracia, IFFI artistic director, stressed the tribe’s performance showcased not just Panay Island’s discovery during the Spanish colonization, but their cultural heritage and sustained faith in Señor Santo Niño.&#13;
&#13;
“We showed our Dinagyang presentation, beautiful drum beats which matched the performance of our dancers and accompanied by various elements, sets, and props all in devotion to Señor Santo Niño,” Divinagracia told reporters after the awarding ceremony.&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
Meanwhile, Gov. Arthur Defensor Jr. congratulated Mayor Jerry Treñas of Iloilo City and Mayor Francis Amboy of Maasin, Iloilo following the success of their respective festivals.&#13;
&#13;
The governor lauded Treñas and Amboy for their leadership and dedication to promoting cultural heritage through the festivals. He emphasized the festivals’ role in fostering tourism and promoting local identity.&#13;
&#13;
“I am immensely proud of Mayor Treñas and Mayor Amboy for their exceptional stewardship and the outstanding performances of Dinagyang and Tultugan. These festivals not only highlight Iloilo’s vibrant culture but also strengthen our community bonds,” said Governor Defensor.&#13;
&#13;
The governor stressed the success of Dinagyang and Tultugan festivals highlighting their significance as cultural landmarks that unite and inspire communities across Western Visayas.&#13;
&#13;
“We look forward to further elevating Iloilo’s cultural prominence and continuing to celebrate our heritage through festivals like Dinagyang and Tultugan,” Defensor added.&#13;
&#13;
The Aliwan Fiesta is an annual cultural event in the Philippines that brings together various festivals across the country to compete in a grand showcase of Filipino culture and heritage.&#13;
&#13;
Organized by the Manila Broadcasting Company (MBC) and the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP), the event features three main competitions: the cultural street dance competition, the float parade, and the Reyna ng Aliwan beauty pageant.&#13;
&#13;
Participants come from different regions, each representing their local festivals.&#13;
&#13;
The Aliwan Fiesta provides a platform for these communities to exhibit their unique traditions, costumes, music, and dance, fostering a sense of national pride and unity./PN</text>
