I don’t usually watch barangay tournament in our place maybe because its not my interest but still many folks have always been over gaga in some basketball tournament in their barangay like it seems a much awaited event to watch out for! My youngest brother has been a MVP of their league but later he stop playing in the tournament due to a certain fracture in his right legs.

Still one of the hottest sports in the Philippine backyard. Basketball have been always part of barangay fiesta. If only Filipinos have height then we have also in the top teams of the world.

It is not a question of the place which you are coming from but how you are playing. Basketball is my favorite game. I like it. My daughter represented Nationals also. Though she is short she plays extremely well. That is why she was selected. You could understand how much I like the game.
This is the game meant for quickness and mental alertness. One should keep on moving throughout the time and watch for the ball.
Your country is really doing a good effort.At the same time, the Government and people are also equally showing interest in improving their game.

What is the money used for? Is it donated to a charitable work?
-
Usually, the generated money is used for the fiesta activities like prizes on different sports activities, buying things needed for decor in the whole community, for snacks during the activities, or the whole amount can be allotted for a certain project in the village like repair of barangay hall or cementing of road.

Philippines has many king and queens maybe because it was a part of our tradition, of our cultural heritage, and of our interest that lives on even up to this day of the modern age of technology. As we look back in this past years, philippines has been dominated the beauty pageant around the world with their own unique beauty, to show the world that we are not only beautiful inside and out but we have the eyes to see people who are in want, to bring equality to all, and to inspire people to never give up and stop dreaming, to follow that dreams, and make that dreams into reality.

Truly this is part of Philippine tradition. We have been like during the Spanish colonization of our country. Our rich culture and traditions also credited to our colonizers which we still practice until now. Our village fiesta are so enjoyable because of this traditions we have.

I have the same question as @Treathyl FOX has. What is the money for? Choosing a king and queen based on how much one collects does not seem to be a justification for that.
-
Yes, I forgot to mention about it. The accumulated money is used for fiesta activities or can also be used to fund certain project in the village, depending on what the village officials had approved.
-
-
Ha ha, that is true, we are all king and queen to our own way. We are the royalties without the protocol and without the wealth.
-
We call kind of thing beauty contest and name it something like miss or Mr so and so naming them from where they come from. Some of the things you ha e mentioned are similar to what we do back in our country as well They ar3 usually asked questions regarding the place they come from and if the judge’s are happy with their answers then they ar3 crowned with a tiara for the girl with flowers and so on and so for the. Then a celebration follows.there after.

Just this morning I learned that even the husband pastor died in hospital. I learned this from a person who belong to their sect that told me the husband did not survive the operation.
Its accident happened in an area where many accidents have had happened there. Many lives have been sacrificed in the said place.
May his soul rest in peace. Motor bikes ar3 a sure way of getting to where your going fast but th3 bad thing is that it carries with it a lot of dangers. Many people don’t see them as dangers but they ar3. If only th3 riders could be more cautious and try their luck with cars. They need to take extra care especially when it rains. Back in our country this accidents are pretty much an everyday occurence and it’s really taking a toll on families, where people are taking into riding without taking proper riding lessons before they get to the roads.very unfortunate.
This is a case of overtaking. while overtaking generally the youth can not guess the speed required while overtaking a front vehicle. They should also know how to handle the situation if any vehicle comes in the front. They do not have any estimation and are prone to such accidents. Here the motorbike driver and the pillion rider both expired. Both are above 45. Why and how he took such a decision to overtake another vehicle is really not coming to my understanding.
The road conditions also are responsible for such accidents. The position is not good with India also. Here also the manholes are not covered properly with responsibility and sometimes during rainy season people disappear into the manholes. But, the opposition doie not make an issue over such incidents. They make out an issue over other indecent , indisciplined activities.
