Isang makabuluhan at masining na pagtatanghal ang magdadala sa atin sa mahahalagang yugto ng ating kasaysayan isang paglalakbay tungo sa mga kuwento ng katapangan, sakripisyo, at pagmamahal sa bayan ng ating mga bayani at ninuno sa kanilang pakikibaka para sa kalayaan.

Ngayong taon, tampok rin sa pagtatanghal ang mga pangyayaring naganap sa panahon ng pananakop ng mga Hapones, na magbibigay-liwanag sa mga hamon, pakikibaka, at tagumpay na humubog sa ating pagkakakilanlan bilang isang malayang sambayanan.

Bibigyang-buhay ang makasaysayang salaysay na ito ng mga mahuhusay na talento ng Bayan ng Surallah sa pamamagitan ng sining, musika, at makapagbagbag-damdaming pagtatanghal.

Sa bawat galaw, himig, at liriko, muling mabubuhay ang diwa ng pagkakaisa, katatagan, at pag-asa—mga pagpapahalagang patuloy
na nagbibigay inspirasyon sa kasalukuyan at sa mga susunod pang henerasyon. Isang pagtatanghal na hindi lamang magbibigay aliw,
kundi mag-iiwan din ng malalim na aral at inspirasyon sa puso ng bawat manonood.

Taliwas sa nakasanayang nag-iisang watawat ng Pilipinas na nakawagayway sa harap ng munisipyo ng Bayan ng Surallah, ngayo’y makikita ang dosenang watawat na animo'y sumasayaw sa ritmo ng hanging malaya at may dangal. Bahagi ito ng pagdiriwang ng Philippine National Flag Days na taunang ginugunita mula Mayo 28 hanggang Hunyo 12.

Noong 1965, inilabas ni dating Pangulong Diosdado Macapagal ang Proclamation No. 374 na nagtatakda sa Mayo 28 bilang National Flag Day. Ito ay pag-alala sa unang pagwagayway ng watawat ng Pilipinas matapos ang tagumpay ng mga Pilipino sa Labanan sa Alapan noong 1898. Pinalawak naman ito noong 1994 sa pamamagitan ng Executive Order No. 79 na nilagdaan ni dating Pangulong Fidel V. Ramos, kung saan ginawang labing-anim na araw na pagdiriwang mula Mayo 28 hanggang Hunyo 12 upang higit na mapalakas ang diwa ng pagkamakabayan at maipakita ang makasaysayang kahalagahan ng pambansang watawat kasabay ng paggunita sa Araw ng Kalayaan.

The Surallah Municipal Rotonda, locally known as the “Roundball,” stands today as one of the most iconic landmarks in the region, symbolizing the municipality’s identity, unity, and continuing progress. More than just a central roadway structure, the rotonda has become a significant cultural and historical landmark that reflects the story and development of the people of Surallah through the years.

A photo taken in 1994 captures the early appearance of the municipal rotonda before its transformation into the prominent landmark it is today. The size and original base of the rotonda were carefully preserved, maintaining the integrity of its original structure.

In 2011, under the visionary leadership of the late Mayor, The Honorable Romulo Solivio Sr., the Tri-People Monument was inaugurated at the center of the rotonda. The cultural structure was established as a symbol of immense pride, harmony, and hope for the preservation, practice, and patronage of the rich cultural heritage of Surallah and the entire province of South Cotabato. Representing the unity of the Indigenous Peoples, Christians, and Muslims, the monument stands as a powerful reminder of the shared history, traditions, and aspirations that continue to shape the municipality.

As the municipality of Surallah continues to progress toward a more vibrant and prosperous future, the Surallah Municipal Rotonda remains a silent witness to its journey, steadfastly reflecting the resilience, heritage, unity, and enduring spirit of the Surallahnons.

The Allah Valley Airport was constructed in 1947 by the National Development Company, covering portions of former Barrio 11 and Barrio 10 of Banga, areas that are now known as Barangay Libertad and Barangay Centrala in Surallah.

Established to support agricultural and developmental initiatives in Banga Settlement District, the airport served as a critical transportation link for government personnel, equipment, and technical operations. Commercial and chartered flights were later introduced by Philippine Airlines, providing direct connectivity between Surallah and major cities such as Manila, Cebu, and Iloilo.

The airport features a single asphalt runway measuring approximately 1,339.9 meters in length and 30 meters in width, designed to accommodate small to medium-sized aircraft. In 1987, operations were suspended to allow for runway rehabilitation and the installation of perimeter fencing to improve safety and security conditions. However, despite these enhancements, flight operations were eventually discontinued due to safety concerns arising from obstructions, including nearby vegetation and encroaching residential structures.

To date, despite no longer being operational for commercial flights, the Allah Valley Airport remains under the management and supervision of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP).

The establishment of Allah Valley Airport marks a significant milestone in the historical and economic development of Surallah. It enhanced regional accessibility, stimulated local economic activity, and positioned the municipality as the only locality in South Cotabato with its own airport facility. Although no longer operational for commercial aviation, the airport remains a vital heritage landmark—symbolizing the municipality’s progress and continuing to shape its historical identity.
