‘SANA ARAW-ARAW AY PASKO, CAYETANO URGES TAGUIGEÑOS

CHOOSE to be part of the solution rather than the problem.

This was the holiday message of Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano to his fellow Taguigeños during the grand opening of this year’s “The Lights of CHRISTmas” Park (TLC Park) on Saturday, November 30.

Thousands of Taguigeños attended the ceremony, which marked the third year of the largest lights park in the country.

Cayetano urged Taguigeños to live out the core values of the “Probinsyudad” – love, progress, and integrity – not just during Christmas but throughout the year.

“‘Yung prinsipyong pinaniniwalaan natin sa Taguig – pagmamahalan, progress dahil ipinagbawal ang lahat ng klase ng sugal, prinsipyo na walang droga – sana po araw-araw ‘yan ay magiging totoo,” he said.

“Kung tayo ay tunay na Probinsyudad, sana araw-araw ay Pasko,” he added.

He gave a practical example of this mindset, where he emphasized the importance of taking responsibility for the community.

“Tayo dapat ay makatulong, at kung hindi tayo makakatulong, ‘wag na tayong makasakit pa,” he said.

“Example: Napakaganda ng ating park. Sana kung may makita tayo na nagtapon ng basura, tayo na rin ang pumulot. Pero kung ikaw pa ang magtatapon – e nakinabang ka na, dudumihan mo pa ‘yung ating park,” he continued.

Cayetano closed his message by wishing for a brighter future for all Filipinos, expressing his hope that 2025 would be a “year of light.”

“Ang aking wish sa inyong lahat sa 2025 ay taon ng liwanag… Let’s not underestimate the importance of truth and fighting for the truth,” he said.

The TLC Park, which is the brainchild of Cayetano’s wife Taguig Mayor Lani Cayetano, is open to all until January next year.
