20 years ago...

these shots were taken in Asingan..

..20 years is a hell of a long time. Visiting Asingan after such a long time of absence is quite an experience..Now that the town fiesta is just around the corner, why dont you plan a Sentimental Journey back to the land of our birth?...

I took a shot of Mr. Cardinez and a gentleman in front of the old Municipal Building...

 

The ff: were taken inside the Treasurer's Office of the Old Municipio under Mayor Sapigao ( deceased )

Mr. Pre was talking over the microphone, introducing the staff who were working in the Municipio

 

 

The elected officials : 1988-1992

 

 

The venerable wife of the late  Congressman Luciano Millan is the lady in pink...

 

More Asinganian ladies enjoying an afternoon merienda in the old Public Library building of Asingan..

 

These photos were lifted from a home made video entitled ASINGAN REVISITED..It is an hour and a half  documentary which is made up of various shots I took when I visited Asingan for the first time in 1988, 12 years after I left the country.  Video cameras were still in its infancy then...

( more photos from the video next time around )
