Business opportunities from the Sto. Nino

- The Ear -
January 16, 2012 | 12:00am

BIZ BOOM. Business opportunities were and still are aplenty at the vicinity of the Basilica del Sto. Niño because of the Fiesta Señor. Rent a chair for P10, bottled water, umbrellas, fans, peanuts, boiled eggs, etc.

SAMOK LANG. But an Ear informer said the vendors should have been informed to keep their distance as soon as the Novena Masses start. “Saba kaayo unya samok nga naay magsige’g baligya og tubig ug mani bisan nagmisa,” the informer said.
