LAPU-LAPU ... LE DERNIER VOYAGE ?

Dernier voyage pour la statue de bronze de Lapu-Lapu ?


Lapu-Lapu va-t-il pouvoir reposer en paix ?
Quelqu'un n'aura-t-il pas un jour la volonté de le déplacer de Cebu à Mactan ?
THE 40-foot brass statue of Datu Lapu-Lapu that stands at the Rizal Park in Manila will soon be making a move to Cebu.

Lapu-Lapu City Mayor Paz Radaza wants the statue to be in the city, and sent a formal request to Department of Tourism (DOT) Secretary Ramon Jimenez Jr. regarding the matter last month.

Yesterday, the mayor said her wish had been granted.

“Sure na na. Ang pagbalhin na lang (The next step is to bring the statue here),” Radaza said.

She said the DOT will shoulder the cost of transporting the P15-million statue, which was sculpted by award-winning artist Juan Sajid Imao.

New home

It was donated by the Korean Freedom League to the Philippine Government in 2004.

Radaza said she wants to erect the statue in an area called Datu Mangal in Barangay Punta Engaño.



Mangal was reportedly Lapu-Lapu’s father.

She said they cannot place the sculpture at the Liberty Shrine in Barangay Mactan, since the area already has a statue of Lapu-Lapu, albeit a smaller one.

Following their request to the DOT, Radaza said an official from the National Historical Commission of the Philippines and the sculptor checked the statue’s future home.

Dick’s idea

“Pag-ari nila diri hopeful man sila (When they came, they were amenable to the idea of the statue being moved here),” she said.

UN KAPRE ... A MALACANANG ?

Image
Don Miguel Perez Rubio, President Benigno Aquino III’s chief protocol officer, usually utters “Hello, Mr. Brown" whenever he passes by the old balete tree in front of the state entrance of Malacañang Palace. “Mr. Brown," Perez Rubio told reporters Monday, is a benevolent kapre who calls the more than a century old tree his home. A kapre is a Philippine mythical creature described as a tall, hairy male who always smokes big tobacco pipe. Perez Rubio said he utters the greeting to avoid any misfortune that might befall him if he ignores “Mr Brown," whom he said had once raised a security guard high off the ground. He said the creature also once scared a limousine driver by towering over his car. So far, no one has been hurt by “Mr Brown." And perhaps he will not have a reason to, especially now that President Aquino has officially proclaimed the aforementioned balete tree (Ficus concinma) as a Heritage Tree. On Monday, President Aquino led the ceremonial ...

RESIDENCE DE L'AMBASSADEUR DE FRANCE ... AUX PHILIPPINES !

Image
Rare qu’un Ambassadeur de France ouvre les portes de sa résidence en dehors du 14 juillet.  Suffisamment rare tout du moins pour que j’en fasse un post. Petite aparté, tout ceci est payé, directement ou indirectement, par vos impôts. Profitez en bien, compte tenu de l’état des finances du pays, il se pourrait bien que d’ici quelques années le patrimoine du ministère des affaires étrangères soit mis en vente afin de combler une dette devenue abyssale. A quand le passage des résidences de nos ambassadeurs sous le contrôle des Qatari ou des Chinois ? Les paries sont ouverts. En ce qui concerne les Philippines, passer d’une superbe villa située à  Forbes Park, pour un trois pièces sur Quiapo, Tondo ou Binondo, ils risquent d’apprécier le changement nos diplomates ! Home to French ambassadors, the Embassade de France in Makati is a modern residence with elements of history and culture. The architecture bears some elements of the plantation ...
