Kannawidan Festival

-

Ilocos Sur has a rich heritage and unique culture. However,  it is observed that many of these traditions, songs, dances and other Ilocano culture are no longer familiar with the younger generations. Children of today prefer the modern and novelty dances they see on television shows than the traditional ones.

There is a need to preserve our rich heritage and unique culture. With this in mind, the provincial government of Ilocos Sur has conceived a festival that highlights these culture and traditions and attract local and foreign tourists as well. Dubbed the Kannawidan Ylocos Festival, it is also a commemoration of the anniversary of Ilocos Sur as a province.

A royal decree dated February 2, 1818 separated Ilocos. The northern part became Ilocos Norte while the southern part became Ilocos Sur which then included the northern part of La Union and all of what is now the province of Abra. In 1854, the province of La Union was created out of the towns that had heretofore belonged to Ilocos Sur and Pangasinan. Soon thereafter, Abra likewise became independent.


Kannawidan festival is celebrated on last of week of January until second week of February. It is a long week for ilocanos to enjoy and commemorate this occation.

Letter to the President

Hon. President Rodrigo R. Duterte, Office of the president Malacañang Palace JP Laurel Street, San Miguel Manila  Dear Mr. President,                 You have amazed me with your decision about the issue on the panatag/scarborough shoal even if we won the arbitration case against china specially about what you said on our soldiers and not sacrificing their lives for just one island. I'm also in favor of campaign against drug but please run this operation through a safe process.We all know that being a President is not an easy job. From making our country's economy high and your efforts on making the Philippine crime rate fall. Whatever your plans are, as long as it is for our country and for us Filipino people I will always support you and I hope that you will make our country Philippines great again. I also hope that there will be a President like you in the future.

          All of us wants a change on our life and in the society but how can we change our life and the society if we cant even change our self? The change that we want is easily achieve if we change our self. Instead of sitting there why go and clean the environment? Instead of playing with your phone why no read books?          Changing yourself is hard and the problem with changing your outer world without changing yourself is that you will still be you when you reach that change you have strived for. You will still have your flaws, anger, laziness, negativity, self-sabotaging tendencies etc. intact. You are in control. Youre the one that control yourself in whatever actions youre doing. Forgive and let go. We must forgive the people who have been bad to us and try to let go the things that we dont need. We need to be true to our self. We must reflect ourelves and know more about ourselves. We must know what is wrong with us. So that, the bad things are the things were going to c

                  Sa panahon ngayon marami nang Pilipino ang nasa ibang bansa at tila nakakalimutan na ang ating sariling wika kayat nababagay sa kanila ang tema sa taong ito na Filipino: Wika ng Saliksik. Ang saliksik ay nangangahulugang pag hanap. kung mayroon man tayong salita na di natin alam ang pagsasaliksik ang pinaka mabisang praan upang malaman ito. Ang layunin ng tema sa taong ito ay ang palaganapin ang wikang Filipino sa iba't ibang larangan ng karunungan.                    Alam natin lahat na ang ginagamit sa mga pangunahing asignatura na agham at matematika ay ang lenguaheng ingles ngunit di ba mas naiintindihan natin ito kung sarili nating wika ang ating gagamitin? Mas nagkakaintindihan tayo dahil nasanay na tayo sa paggamit nito, ang ating sariling wika.                  Kayat palaganapin natin ang ating sariling wika gamitin natin ito dahil ang wika ay ang kaluluwa ng isang bansa.
