“Ang pagbulig wara boundary. Wara ti pinilian, regardless of your political affiliations, status in life, religion, and creed. Tanan kamo gin imbitar doon tulad kag kabay pa nga ma share man ninyo dya sa iban nga tawo.”

This was the statement of Mayor Richard Garin as he represented Garin Family in the distribution of 3kg rice, long sleeve shirt and 3 liters gasoline to all tricycle drivers in Miagao on Oca Garin Day on January 22nd.

“I reciprocate naton ria based also on the guiding principle of Oca Garin that do not only repay kindness, pass it on. Indi kita mag-untat sa pasalamat and at the same time mangita man kita kang tawo nga buligan ta man,” Mayor Garin said.

Living by his guiding principle “Do not only repay kindness, pass it on”, some 250 bedridden Miagaowanons received food packs on Oca Garin Day (Kindness Day) on January 22, 223.

Braving the heat of the sun and long walks, the LGU staff personally delivered the food packs that contain groceries, biscuits and half sack of rice to the houses of the recipients.

“We are remembering someone sa hinimuan na. Nadura si Oca Garin pero gina sige ta ang pagbulig sa mga bedridden kay amo guid dya ang naandan na nga himuon sang buhi pa,” Mayor Richard Garin said.
