Plural Messages, Singular Meaning!
by Anioneva Family  Five years ago this first day of January, our mother celebrated her 80th birthday! We feel good to rewind our recollection of that occasion, and slowly play the moments, sights and sounds surrounding the events on that wonderful evening. Friends, relatives, and family members came together with smiles on their faces and good feelings deep inside, despite hectic schedule and other occasions the days before.
This year marks the 85th birthday of our mother. We celebrate this significant occasion with relatives, friends and family members. Unique this time is the presentation of an album to Mamay as a gift. This album contains pictures of Mamay’s children, grandchildren and great grandchildren reflective of her family tree. Moreover, it includes greetings and messages of respective experiences concerning Mamay’s presence in our lives. The messages are presented in various ways, but the meaning is the same -- Mamay’s selfless devotion to her family.

A Coin In The Sand

Introduction  In our lives, there are places and events that remain more or less permanent in one's memory. Many events are not within our power to change. However, we do have the power to positively react on, adapt to, absorb or assimilate the impact of such events. One could seize the moment or the moment could also seize him.
My goal in writing this story is primarily to present the facts to many or most Simaranhons who have forgotten some history of the land from which they came from. The sources of this work came from available written records, from interviews of older residents, and from my own experiences. The students in our schools can surely gain from the information presented in this story. Some landmarks or features of the island have disappeared over the years already. With most written records destroyed, the young of today have no clue of what was Simara before their time. This story could help them renew with the past. My hope is that a few more Simaranhons could write about another time in the history of our island.

Wartime Memories of a Simaranhon Foot Soldier
An interview of Armando Falceso by Gilbert Fajiculay, July 2002

In the history of human conflicts, we always read or hear about the heroic actions of men and women who put their lives in harm's way in order to protect and defend their homeland and fellowmen. This is true regardless of the size of the conflict. All their actions are necessary as each mission, small or big, is important and significant to the achievement of the ultimate objective. Each action produces a hero and unsung heroes as well. This is a story of one foot soldier. His name is Armando Fallar Falceso, the eldest among twelve children of Julio Faderagao Falceso and Lucia Faminiano Fallar. He is one of those unsung heroes in World War II. This is his recollection of the liberation of Simara during World War II.

BLESSED LEON
by Minnie Festin Navato

 I am here to talk about my great-grandfather, Blessed Leon Inchausti, a successful man who made it to heaven.
Born June 28, 1859 in Ajanquiz, Vizcaya, Spain, he studied Philosophy & Sciences at Monteagudo, Navarre. After receiving his education, Blessed Leon sailed in the ship “Isla de Cebu” for more than a month and landed in Cebu, Philippines. He was ordained a priest in Cebu at age 25 after learning Cebuano. He then served in the parishes of Bohol and Romblon. I come from Romblon. Just before the Spanish-American war, he was transferred to Brazil. After 18 years in Brazil, he returned to Spain in 1915. But things had changed while he was gone. In 1936, the Spanish Civil War broke out and lasted 3-4 years. More than 7000 non-political Catholic priests and 283 nuns were executed by the Republicans out of hatred for the Catholic Church. Padre Leon, along with several other priests, did not abandon their churches and parishes and continued to celebrate Mass. Because of their disobedience, soldiers burned their monasteries and the priests were massacred by firing squad. Blessed Leon did not just endure suffering. He endured suffering that led to his death. Big, big difference!

[jhek]:
Masipag, matalino, mabait at dedicated sa trabaho din si Engr Jorevin at kung pwede rin talagang i-extend ang kanyang pagiging municipal assessor ay pwede rin talagang gawin hanggang maging permanent na rin appointment nya.
-
[cha_cha]:
Mayor, Sana magkaroon na rin ng official receipts ang mga motorboats at macontrol din transportation fare. Kasi sa ibang bayan mas maliit ang binabayaran bakit jan sa simara mataas ang bayad.
-
[cha_cha]:
Mayor, sana unahin ninyo sa plano ang kuryente, tubig, palengke, agrikultura at hospital para sa simara. Wag muna ang mga infrastructure. Dapat makabuluhan ang mga proyekto at may impact sa buhay ng taong bayan. Sana mapakinabangan na rin yung pier na matagal nang walang silbi.

guest_8484 and guest_0123, please identify yourselves. huwag kayong magtago na anonymous identity, kasi useless din at baka walang sumagot sa inyong questions/comments. Tulad ni guest_8484, sino ka ba, anong position o tinapos mo, at ano rin ang iyong lifestyle para mai-compare ka ng readers sa ipinatatanong mong mga kababayan na empleo ng munisipyo.
-
[guest_8484]:
Mayor hangad po naming umunlad ang simara. pwd po bng ipalife style check mo ung municipal engr at treasurer jan. god bless

-
[mila]:
Dapat si Nancy ang pumalit noon pa kay M.Willie. It's the right thing to do....
-
[mercy]:
magandang desisyon po yan mayor...God bless
-
[gilbert]:
Mayor kamusta. You did the right thing of following CSC rules on appointments. Again, I ask everyone to put all this info sa Forum instead of this Shoutbox. Mayroon na doon na Discussion Topic para sa mga municipal issues. Thanks.
-
[Mayor Banares]:
I am trying to encourage our municipal employees to rise from the ranks. Di ba mas maganda po kung lahat binibigyan ng pagkakataon na umangat? I hope I answered guest_666's querry. Thanks always guys.
-
[Mayor Banares]:
I asked Joriven to get the vacated position of nancy and I will pull him out from Assessor's Office and designate him as head of office, GSO. He rejected my offer
-
[Mayor Banares]:
Joriven, while valedictorian and engineer, did not meet the required minimum qualification. CSC requires at least 3 years in the assessment field.
-
[Mayor Banares]:
Nancy has been with the Assessor's office for the last 15 years.
-
[Mayor Banares]:
We posted the vacancy for that mandatory position of municipal assessor. Only 2 applied. Joriven Fallarcuna, who graduated valedictorian, and Nancy Fondevilla, who graduated without honors. However, the requirements of the civil service commission are specific.
-
[Mayor Banares]:
Hi, guys. I am here again. May i answer guest_666. i believe ang sinasabi nyang rank 1 is Joriven Fallarcuna and Rank 10 is nancy Fondevilla whom i appoint as Municipal Assessor
-

[guest_666]:
salamat sa mga ng comment..at sori poh sir at mam..d na poh mauulit
-
[gilbert]:
theoritical or class subjects pero hindi marunong i-apply sa practical na buhay. Mayroong good as office employee, pero mayroon ding very adaptable sa outside office occupation.
-
[gilbert]:
Bakit kayo nagtatago sa guest__?? eh kung SImaranhon kayo ay magpakilala at magbigay ng pangalan ninyo. Bakit kayo nahihiya o anong ikinahihiya niyo sa inyong names? Also, please bear in mind, na hindi lang sa class rank malalaman ang galing ng isang tao. May mga tao na college dropout ay successful at mas mayaman pa sa maraming tao, kahit genius pa sila. Mayroon talagnag taong magaling sa theorit
-
[guest_4383]:
sa klase po mas marami ang walang naiuuwing karangalan kesa sa mapapalad na kalimitan ay may kaya o dinaman kaya ay kamag-anak ng guro, kung pati sa hanap-buhay ay ihuhuli natin ang mga walang rank eh patuloy na di mawawala ang agwat sa antas ng kabuhayan ng sambayanan.
-
[guest_4383]:
guest_666. Ang tawag po dyan eh pagkakapantay-pantay sa opurtunidad. Kahit di rank 1 pwede pa ring piliin ayon sa tawag ng pangangailangan. Kung magaling sa klase si rank 1 pero ang kailangan eh magaling sa pangingisda, kahit walang rank basta magaling mangisda dun tayo.
-
[sec]:
ano yun guest 666? ayusin mo tanong mo
-
[ch-cha]:
sa mga taga simara..hwag po kayong magagalit kung may nagkocomment kasi natural lang po yan..at nakakatulong din yan sa pagbabago ng ating bayan..take it as positive..kung alam mong kulang e di gawing tama..atleast nalalaman kung anong dapat gawin..at nalalaman nyo rin kung ano yung mga hinanaing..diba? kaya okey lang yan..
-
[ch-cha]:
satisfied na po ako..thank you po mayor..atleast naliwanagan na po ako..Godbless po sa mga plan nyo para sa simara...
