It is a joy to be in Bacolod,
where life is good.
In this year’s Masskara Festival, everyone got to know this
new tag line to promote Bacolod City as a prime destination for the good life and
everything good that life has to offer in the City of Smiles. The city government has worked very
hard to make this year’s festival a well-attended one. With all the festivities
promoted daily all over Bacolod,
you could palpably sense the good life in this city I have grown to cherish.
I am in my 5th year here in Bacolod. Since I came from Manila in 2007, many things have definitely
changed. Infrastructure-wise, we have the new flyover. We have a new airport. There
are more than a dozen new buildings that have become hotels and restaurants,
plus offices to different business process outsourcing companies and foreign
shops. And in this study center where I am staying, there are also new projects
that are born and are interesting to sustain, promote and worthily support.
