The Final Cast

Finally, the winners in the race for municipal seats in Capul have been proclaimed. After initial confusion (brought about by the heat of the moment), the final tally is as follows:

Mayor : Atty. Ignacio Bandal - 2,854 votes

Vice Mayor: Ignacio Cascaño - 2,843 votes

Councilors:

1. Rene Pasco - 3,234
2. Letlet Catucod - 3,110
3. Dick Pelito - 3,106
4. Titit Castillo - 2,954
5. Momeng Ortego - 2,872
6. Ben Pernito - 2,664
7. Igning Magloyuan - 2,629
8. Marlon Mente - 2,624

It was 7-1 after all, in favor of the incumbent party. Igning Magloyuan was actually number 7 and Amos Esquillo was at No. 9 with 2,534 votes. Mrs. Milagros Manaog who was earlier touted to be 8th slid to No. 10 with 2,486 votes.

Ian Castillo had 2,770 votes while Jeffrey Suan had 2, 676.

This must be one of the most exciting elections Capul has ever had. Now, it’s time to get to work for the betterment of our beloved hometown.

    From the outcome, yung mayor at isang konsehal ang magka partido. The Vice Mayor and the 7 other councilors belong to another party. Sana naman magtulungan sila for a better Capul.

If Brgy. San Luis brought crabs, this group brought a stand-out animal - the Pinoy beast of burden. But huge it may have been, it was not able to steal the thunder away from the real stars of the show - the street performers. This group won Best in Costume and Best in Performance Showcase for the barangay-based competition.

La Estudiantina Capulena

This, fellow Capulenos is something we should be truly proud of. The dance we have always claimed to be our very own, was featured in a Dance Symposium, and is now being shown in youtube.

The dance could have derived its name from "estudiantina" which is the all-string band that plays the dance music in the many 'baylihan' during the Spanish colonial period. The estudiantina is more popular as the 'rondalla'. It is also called 'tuna' and 'murga'. In fact, in the present day Spanish world, the term used is either tuna or estudiantina. This dance is usually performed during occasions like baptismal and birthday p

Tribu Mananguete: Landusan Boys

This was one of the entries for the school-based category. Coming from the Landusan National High School, the team was composed mainly of boys. Coached by Mr. Oniel Pelito, they wore coconut leaves woven like skirts as they simulated the tuba-gatherers. This group proved to be the most colorful and playful of the lot. And here are raw video clips of their performance.
