A starry night in Sarangani

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - It was a starry, starry night in Sarangani province as it recently celebrated its 19th foundation anniversary and ninth MunaTo Festival. Opening the festivities were Sarangani Rep. and World Boxing Organization welterweight champ Manny Pacquiao and Philippine Councilors’ League national president Alma Moreno who led the launch of the hot air lanterns along with Gov. Miguel Dominguez and provincial officials to symbolize the quest for peace and greater progress. 

Also spicing up the festival were Dingdong Dantes and Rochelle Pangilinan at the Pearl of Sarangani beauty pageant, and an evening rock concert featuring Cueshé. GMA Kapuso Network was a major supporter of the event.

Carved out of South Cotabato in 1992,  Sarangani is a vital component of the Soccsksargen growth corridor with its vibrant fishing and agro-industrial sectors. Endowed with a rich pre-colonial history and nature’s wonders, it is a melting pot which embraces the Blaan, Tagakaolo, Tboli, Manobo, Ubo, Kalagan and Moro indigenous cultures.
