‘Make Baguio clean and green again’
- Baguio, Lawrence Casiraya, Tourism & Leisure -
ONE placard read: “Reduce. Reuse. Recycle”. Another one said: “Save water, save the trees.”
Dressed in orange and green, one group in last weekend’s Panagbenga, or Baguio’s annual Flower Festival, “accessorized” their costumes with these messages.
Panagbenga is the best and the worst time to be in Baguio–the city already overcrowded as it is with college students from all over, call centers that lure job-seekers from nearby provinces (which gave rise to nightspots like Nevada Square) and yes, Korean tourists.
