We watched the One Visayas presentation at the Cebu International Convention Center tonight. ‘One Visayas’ is a very noble initiative of the leaders of the different provinces in the Visayas. This project is a move to unite the neighboring provinces for the benefit not only of the region but also of the entire country. Present during the program were provincial leaders who showed their support by bringing with them their local festivals and products. Here are some photos that I took.
Inside the CICC, there were small booths showcasing the different sights and sounds of the different provinces in the Visayas.
One Visayas! One People. One Destiny.

This one is the Negros Oriental booth. It has real sand and pebbles. Hehe.
Here’s a wonderful diorama of Bohol depicting life in the barrio.

Exhibit of the Sinulog Photo Contest winners.
The winning photo. Really nice.
Then, at 7 pm, the program started.
It was nice to see the Masskara festival perform in Cebu!
This one is a really nice festival from Siquijor. I think it’s called Solili Festival.
I think this was the team from Sta. Catalina. Very nice performance.
The performance of the Siloy Festival of Alcoy, Cebu, got a standing ovation.
At the end of the program, all dancers danced while singing the One Visayas theme.
Go One Visayas!

nice feature on one visayas! i totally missed those childhood days making dioramas for school projects.
btw, are there any lectures/seminars for this event, if there are please inform me. thanks!
you might as well include shows that are held this month like
-creative cebu by the bristish council in ayala
-usctc cafa annual exhibit in ayala (i think it started already)
-up fine arts (sm)
-cebu exhibition (waterfront, there will be an open house on the last day, for photo ops— you ask permission from the exhibitor, you may i think take shots on the student design, instead)..
naa pud diay sila… ang soli soli festival
good concept!!!
another good one, Ley. . .’they’ could create a concert out of the theme ‘One Visayas’. Or, maybe Suroy-Suroy Cebu would expand as Suroy-Suroy Visayas-not a bad idea I guess.
hala nindot lage to…huhuhuhuuh wa ko kaadto dah…
wow!nice…nindot kaau ang presentations especially ang mga booths sa every province in visayas!
i wonder f kinsa kaha ang winner sa sinulog photo exhibit contest coz it looks really amazing!

That woman holding a boy, looking above and reaching for something… that’s the definition of a strong faith. God doesn’t give you what you want, but he gives you what you need.

Sus, you know what? If pwede pa lang, ganahan ko ang Visayas region mo secede from the rest of the country.
