Filipinos are still hoping for the best of 2007. This line has been repeatedly said in the Philippines every time the new year ushers in. I hope that we don't get tired changing the year number everytime we write something optimistic about NEW YEAR. The Filipino optimism which has been attributed to the Filipino religiousity as observed by a fellow liberal, Dr. Ronald Meinardus is very much in place. I believe that this makes the Filipino survive in the face of economic hardships and political uncertainties.
Here in the City of Vigan, we are also optimistic that there is so much in store for this heritage city with its ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY THREE MILLION SIXTY THREE THOUSAND AND SEVENTY SEVEN PESOS (P183,063,077.00) Budget for 2007. The recently concluded cultural mapping project will boost the city's efforts in facing the endless challenges of heritage conservation. Since 2007 is an election year, it is expected that local officials including this representation will be very busy preparing for the May elections.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!
LET'S HOPE FOR THE BEST OF 2007
