For those who were not able to buy the promo plane tickets, particularly for butuan-cebu, here's the good news: Cebu Pacific is offering another domestic seat sale which will run until sunday, february 28, 2010, but travel period starts on june 1, 2010 yet and will end on august 31, 2010.

Erratum...

I posted yesterday that Cebu Pacific's domestic seat sale would end on that same day. I thought all along that yesterday was already February 25.

My apologies! :)

Butuan to Cebu in 30 minutes for P588

Today is the last day to grab the chance of buying promo plane tickets for travel period April 1 - July 31, 2010 for Butuan - Cebu route, among others.

Cebu Pacific is currently offering a domestic seat sale of P588. This is not bad compared to the hassle of traveling by sea for the same or higher fare.

So, with this promo, who says convenience is not cheap? :)

Amantes and Plazas Still Reigning in Agusan

I guess nobody can beat the powerful political clans in the provinces of Agusan del Norte and Agusan del Sur. Read this excerpt from MindaNews:

In Agusan del Norte and del Sur, it’s still the Amantes and the Plazas with the Aquinos now making their presence felt in both provinces.

Erlpe John Malbas Amante (LK) is running for a third term as governor with Vice Governor Enrico Raymundo Corvera (LK) as running mate.

Amante’s opponent is Roger Macabali Patanao (Ind). While Corvera’s opponent is Mercedes Bacalso Atupan (Ind).

Amante’s sister, Angelica Malbas Amante, who was governor for three terms before Erlpe John became governor in 2004, is running for second district representative against Independent candidates Jovitte Cabrera Calo, Van Amelio Dolofina udalan and Jore Maceda Lomongsod.

In Butuan City, Leonides Theresa Borja Plaza (LK) is running against Ferdinand Magdamo Amante, Jr., (LP), Romeo Cuenca Buyan (Ind), Teodoro Alutaya Emboy (Ind), and Roberto Gillera Rosales (LM).

Plaza is married to incumbent mayor Democrito Galido Plaza II, brother of the Plazas dominating the political scene in Agusan del Sur.

Mayor Plaza’s son, Randolph Borja Plaza (LK) is running for councilor of Butuan City while another son, Roscoe Democrito Borja (NP), is running for mayor of Nasipit town against reelectionist mayor Roy Orlando dela Riarte Doyon (LK).

Rep. Jose Sabijon Aquino II (Lakas-Kampi) is seeking reelection as first district representative of Agusan del Norte against Angelo Azuar Jimenez (LP).

Aquino’s brother, Roberto (LP) is running for first district representative of Agusan del Sur against Maria Valentina Galido Plaza (LK), the incumbent governor.

In the second district, the governor’s sister, Evelyn Plaza-Millana(LK), is running for 2nd district representative against Bienvenido Macapal Cebuala, Ceferino Salva Paredes Jr. (LP) and Reynaldo Mordeno Quijada (PDP-Laban).

Their brother, Adolph Edward “Eddiebong” Galido Plaza, is running for governor against Dominador Cebuala Miolata and Isoceles Piencenevaes Otero.

Another brother, Rodolfo, who is ending three terms in Congress, is running for senator while another brother, Victor, is running for provincial board member in the first district.

Brownouts hit Butuan

I have learned from ABS-CBN tv news report recently that Mindanao is experiencing rotating brownouts. I didn't realize then that Butuan is also among those affected by the power crisis which lasted from 7-10 hours a day. Gush! That's too much!

House for Rent in Butuan

For those who have been asking, please be informed that I no longer have a house for rent in Butuan. BUT MY PROPERTY IS STILL UP FOR SALE.
