SA MANGA TAGA KATIPUNAN


Manga guiniguilio cong capatid at dating casamasama:


Maguing tua ó cadalamhatian, maguing hirap ó caguinhauahan ang capadparán co sa paquiquibaca at pamimiyapis sa lahat nang bagay na humehadlang sa pagcatimaua nang ating bayan, ay talastasin ninyong di co malilimutan ang manga dating caramaydamay sa hirap.


Talastas nang lahat na cayo ang nagbucas nang daan, cayo ang unang sumangab sa madlang panganib; ng maligtas at maagao ang bayan sa cuco ng cabangisan at camurahan: gsino ang macalulupig sa pinamuhunanang capurihan na inyong tinamó?


Nguni’t bulaybulayin ninyo: ng una’y nagtatandâ ang manga taga Katipunan, upang magcaquila-quilala ang tunay na magcacapatid; ngayo’y hindi na, sa pagca’t sumapit ang arao na ating inaanantayan na ang lahat na tubo sa Pilipinas ay magquilalanang tunay na magcacapatid, ngayo’y ualá ng Katipunan at hindi Katipunan, sa pagca’t ang boong Pilipinas, ang pinacamamahal nating Inang bayan ang siyang tunay na Katipunang quinadoroonan ng lahat niyang anac na nagcacaisang loob at nagcaca-ayon-ayon sa pag-hango sa Inang naaba sa cailaliman ng caalipnén.


Caya itong aquing Gobierno ay ualang tinitingi sino man: tungcol cababaya’y mahal sa caniyang loob, cayat ipinagcacatiuala ang lahat na catungculan sa canila mang magpatanao nang tunay na carapatin, upang maipaquilala sa manga taga ibang lupa na ang bayang Pilipinas ay marunong na mamahala sa sariling pamumuhay at di nagcacailangang paquialaman pa ng iba. At talastasin ninyo manga sama na ang matulis na cuco ng mga ibang caharia’y nacaacmd sa ating abang bayan; ualang inaantay cundi ang tayo’y magcagacagalit at magaauay at tayo’y pagsasaclutanan at ang raatmatuiri’y cailangang tayo’y husayin at acayin nila, pagca’t cun hindi tayo-tayo rin ang magpapatayan. Talastasin ninyo na ang mahaguip nang salangapang nilang camay ay di macapipiglas sucdang magcauaray-uaray.


Ito rin ang dahilan caya co ipinaubaya sa mga lalong pinananaligan ng mga bayan ang catungculang mamahala sa canila.

Pilando el Palay / Husking the rice

 

pilando el palay

Pilando el Palay / Husking the rice


Palay refers to the unhusked rice.

Bugas or bigas, when it is without shell.

In the Visayan Islands, palay has the name humay.


The steps carried out for husking palay are the following:

From the damasig or tambubu, the palay or humay is taken to dry, for three to four hours, in the intense heat of the sun in a sauali or hamacanes.

Damasig or tambubu are what are called granary and where palay is stored.

Sauali or hamacanes resemble the mat woven made from bamboo bark.

Once the humay is already dry, it is passed through the galingan with wooden teeth to remove the shell from the grain.

Galingan is a lightweight cane mill used to facilitate the shelling off of the palay.


Once this step is done, the palay is completely husked in the following way:

In the lusong, a chunky piece of wood with a hole in the middle of a conical figure, the palay is emptied, and the tauos or men, using masses of wood, peel the rice husk without crushing it.

Carrying out this process requires skill and finesse. Not everyone is suitable for this work.


In the photo, four tauos perform the task next to a traditional house in the countryside.

Next comes the sieve to separate the shell of the bugas or bigas.

The rice is carried out using the calalau.

Calalau is a fabric also made from cane bark with a quadrangular shape that is used to easily extract the humay bran.

Once these steps are done, all you have to do is put the rice in the pot to be cooked.


In the cities, the process is done with modern procedures and tools.

Battle of Manila: Ermita

 

battle of manila ermita

Battle of Manila: Ermita


Ermita, was once the epitome of elegance, where power dressed in linen suits and lived behind wrought iron gates. Tree-lined streets led to gatherings filled with the city’s most distinguished residents. It was a district built on civility and wealth, where the world made sense if you had the right address. Then came the war, bringing destruction so complete that even memory struggled to reconstruct what was lost. The mansions burned, the avenues crumbled, and the people who once called it home never returned.


Now, Ermita wears a different face, less refinement, more necessity. The grand homes have given way to neon-lit commerce, with pawnshops standing where parlors once stood. The dignity of its past lingers in crumbling facades and the occasional lamppost that refuses to fall. Walking its streets is less a stroll through history and more a confrontation with what time, war, and progress have done to a city that never had the luxury of staying the same.


As we conclude the tour, we walk through the echoes of what was lost and what remains. From its shattered mansions to the institutions that struggled to rise again, Ermita tells the story of Manila, a city that never had the luxury of standing still. Join us in this final leg, where we confront the past, remember its scars, and honor the history that shaped the Manila we know today.

Sama Traditional Dance


Dancing at a young age, Hadja Sakinur-ain has mastered the art of “Igal”. Igal is a Sama term for “dance” and is tantamount to the Pangalay of the Tausug, the Pamansak, and Gandingan of the Yakan. According to Hadja Sakinur-ain, “It happens right when the dancer is one with her soul and spirit, as guided by the traditional “tagunggu” music.


Regarded by her community as the Danda Pandey Ngigal (Igal expert), she learned so much of her dance skills from her mother who taught her gestures mimicking the ocean water, fishes, and birds. She is known for spreading her expertise in art performances where she emphasizes the need to keep all elements of the dancer and the dance in harmony.


Hadja Sakinur-ain has been dancing in time with the past, against the crosscurrents of the present, to the challenging irrepressible tides of the future as she relentlessly dances the Igal for her omboh, her great ancestors, her family, her Sama community, her Igal students and the next generations of Igal dancers.

Mandaya Textile Weaving


Regarded as one of the few remaining gi-pandayan (master artisan) of the Mandaya People, Samporonia is a master weaver of “Dagmay”. From harvesting the abaca, preparation, and the execution of the most challenging patterns, Samporonia’s works have been determined to be approximate to the quality of that of former master weavers.


Holistically ingraining the essence of Dagmay weaving as a vessel of the community’s indigenous knowledge system and practices, Samporonia, who is also a Baylan, has mastered the other traditional and innovative Mandaya art which she shares with her family and the rest of the community, further earning respect and admiration.

T'nalak

T’nalak | @balikbatik


T’nalak is a traditional fabric made by the Tboli people.


This traditional cloth (image above) is hand-woven and made of Abaca fibers which traditionally have three primary colors, red, black, and the original color of the Abaca leaves.


T’NALAK. A traditional hand-woven cloth indigenous to the Tboli from Lake Sebu, South Cotabato, Philippines.


T’nalak is a traditional hand-woven cloth indigenous to the Tboli from Lake Sebu, South Cotabato, Philippines. It is customarily used as a ceremonial blanket, women’s skirts, and men’s tailored suits, and forms part of the bride’s wealth in traditional marriage arrangements. Only a few skilled weavers are gifted with k’na or dreams by abaca spirit Fu Dalu which inspires them to create different designs.


The t’nalak is made from fine fibers derived from the stalk of an #abaca (Musa textilis). A labor-intensive process, its production requires knowledge of a range of skills learned by women from a young age. It is sturdy, and its texture reminds us of snakeskin with various anthropomorphic, zoomorphic, and geometric tie-dye patterns. It has three primary colors—red, black, and the natural color of the abaca fibers. The black and red dyes are extracted from the k’nalum (Diospyros sp.) leaves and from the leaves, fruits, and bark shavings of loko (Morinda citrifolia), respectively.


Before the 1960s, t’nalak was bartered for horses. Thus, weavers have a very important role in the Tboli community. The establishment of the Santa Cruz Mission School, Inc. (formerly Notre Dame of Lake Sebu) in 1984 created a market for the t’nalak, providing a steady income to the weavers. This also resulted in the commercialization of the cloth and the introduction of synthetic dyes and new designs.


Are you interested and excited to see a t’nalak work of Manlilikha ng Bayan Lang Dulay? Come and visit the National Museum PH of Butuan featuring “Panapton sa Lumad: Mga Arte ug Kailhanan” exhibition to open to the public in October 2022. See you!

The SS Corregidor
Model and render: Kathryna Alejandro

Today marks the 83rd anniversary of the sinking of the SS Corregidor. In the early hours of December 17, 1941, the SS Corregidor struck a mine as it navigated its way out of Manila Bay’s minefields. The ship, overloaded with people trying to leave Manila for the provinces at the start of World War 2 in the Philippines, sunk with great loss of life.

Through researching available materials, Kathryna Alejandro of Renacimiento has recreated the SS Corregidor. In time with the anniversary of the disaster, we are posting here the 3D model. Additionally, Kathryna Alejandro has also recreated the sinking of the SS Corregidor, which will be posted later as the second part of this special series.
