From hidden coastal gems to sustainable farms, the journey through the May-Kan Tour Leg 4 with the Department of Tourism (DOT) Region 1 serves as a celebration of La Union's rich heritage. Participants immersed themselves in local culture through the San Fernando City’s PakSEAw fishing experience, witnessed the artistry at De Castro’s Loom Weaving, and supported coastal livelihoods in Barangay San Agustin and Mantilla’s Panciteria.

The tour also highlighted local innovation and culinary pride. A visit to G’s Integrated Farm in Bacnotan showcased theirl award-winning Duck Binagoongan and zero-waste, closed-loop ecosystem, before the trip wrapped up at Lakay Ago in Agoo. There, the community's finest cooks treated the delegation to the authentic, traditional flavors of farm-fresh Dinengdeng and the comforting sweetness of Binudburan rice cakes.

Every stop serves as a reminder that the true beauty of La Union lies in its people, their craftsmanship, and the sustainable stories they pass down. It stands as a call to continue supporting local communities, preserving cultural identity, and traveling with a purpose. (VTB)

Mas inilalapit ang edukasyon sa bawat mag-aaral

Sa pamamagitan ng libreng Wi-Fi sa mga paaralan—lalo na sa mga liblib at malalayong lugar-patuloy na isinusulong ng pamahalaan sa pangunguna ni Pangulong Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. ang pantay na access sa kaalaman at makabagong teknolohiya.
