What is 'Araw ng Kagitingan'?

HOLIDAY. Today we observe ‘Araw ng Kagitingan’. But most people are not familiar with this national holiday. One office clerk was asked what the ‘Araw ng Kagitingan’ is, and she answered, “Di ko sure, basta holiday na siya.” Another answered, “Mora’g mga estudyante nalang na kabalo unsa na. Para namo, it means extra pay.” Yet another answered, “Veteran’s Day kay pasidungan man ang mga war veterans.”

ON PLASTIC. A reader said that plastic is an indispensable material so it’s not possible to totally ban plastics in Cebu City. He said, “Kay dili man pwede masulod og bulsita ang tubig, ice ug ice candy mao nga kinahanglanon gyud ang plastic.”
