8/25/23 Angeles City ushers in Yuletide Season with lantern lighting
(By Butch Gunio)
The Angeles City Government, led by Mayor Carmelo "Pogi" Lazatin Jr.,
installed Christmas lanterns along Abacan Bridge, signaling the start
of the "ber" months in a few weeks.
The Christmas lanterns named and called as “NingNing” which were
conceptualized and designed by the Office of Executive Assistant IV
Reina Manuel serve as beacons of hope to the undying spirit of the
Angeleños to rise above any adversities.
Manuel said the lanterns were put up two weeks before the ber months
by the City Engineer's Office, led by Engr. Donato Dizon, upon the
instructions of Mayor Lazatin.
The longest Christmas in Asia now starts in Angeles City with the
lighting of the Christmas lanterns - a reminder that there is hope
amid the adversities.
Mayor Lazatin is reminding Angelenos to put forth hope, love and
concern for others. (Butch Gunio)
