Abaknons Rock Vegas!

Abaknons work hard ... but they party harder!

This truism was once again proven when Abaknons in the US and Canada  recently gathered together for serious bonding. They took leave from their respective jobs and pressing activities and rocked Las Vegas the way only Abaknons do. That means lots of dancing, drinking, chatter and limitless fun.

These photos were taken during the evening get-together at the Cafe Moda.






(Note: We would appreciate knowing the names of all the persons in the pics. ABAC members, please send the administrator the names of those featured in each photo.

Thanks to Ms. Nida Halpin, Ms. Esther Castillo-Bahm and Darren Ortego for the pics. Not all of those present however were in the pics, as the camera bearers also got lost in the fun. For those who have pics, please email them to the admin. Thanks!)

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.

Editorial: A Future For Sale

Note: This post is the Administrator's take on how the recent elections went. Fair comments are welcome. From how I saw it, it was indeed an impressive election. It definitely was more peaceful than the most recent ones. Automation made the process exciting (or worrisome) but at the same time challenging. Truly, it was heartwarming to see people brave the punishing summer heat and the tiring wait just to be able to cast their votes. There is no doubt in my mind that the results reflected the Abaknons’  true democratic will. However, why they voted for whom is an entirely different issue.  I wish to think that in the final analysis, they did vote with the thought of what’s best for Capul. But even with that, any voter who receives money during election time still compromises his vote.  While I do not wish to rob the winners of the glory of their victory, I bet that the aftertaste of their win would have been much sweeter if they (again, i mean ALL of them) did not give money t
