Of course, we've stayed in your house for ages (when I was still about 5 yrs old til 2 years ago when I decided to give my parents' a house they deserve!), so there's no reason for me not to remember you Noy... Still haven't got a clue then? I pressumed you didn't recognize me at all!!...<BR/><BR/>uuuuummm I am the eldest daughter of Pastor Basalo, who always once had a poor & oddly face:) kidding aside..... We all "Basalo siblings" have grown up in your place, we do love that house Noy.. and I'd like to take this opportunity to say THANKS A MILLION for the opportunity you all have given us. God will bless you more....<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I am always proud to have been representing Hingotanan as my hometown/homeisland than Nocnocan, the fact that I grew up there, gained respect for my family, attained my education, that if it wasn't from "the only island offers high school education", I wouldn't have reached this stage in life and have achieved my dreams!! <BR/><BR/>Have been coming backwards & forwards, been always for ages since I have worked here but I've always missed and treasured those things Hingotanan had brought me to life, and through God's mercy and calling of my parents to serve people in the Lord's name, never ever we all forget and leave this place. We all keep on coming back here and keep calling as our treasured island.<BR/><BR/>Thansk for dropping by and I am so glad to hear from you! Regards ko nila Ate Nila, and many more....<BR/><BR/>God bless you always,<BR/>MadzMadzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306223989893089641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669582532594557726.post-75897166519870607522009-01-14T12:40:00.000+00:002009-01-14T12:40:00.000+00:00FROM: GUILLYHi Madelyn, Just happened to browse ab...FROM: GUILLY<BR/><BR/>Hi Madelyn,<BR/> <BR/>Just happened to browse about Hingotanan on the web a while ago and got lucky to have read two features, yours and Elizabeth Padillo's. It's good to know there is another lucky one from our island like you whom God poured his blessings and kindness.<BR/> <BR/>I might have not known you and your parents so well, but the fact that a person like you whose roots is not really from Hingotanan as you claimed in your blog, and yet so proud to be one, is a gesture worth emulating and be accorded special accolades by the people of Hingotanan.<BR/> <BR/>Anyway, me as a pure Hingotanan breed, salutes you for your extraordinary expression of loyalty and love for our beloved island, Hingotanan.<BR/> <BR/>More power to you and your family.<BR/> <BR/>Ang tawag nila sa ako sa Hingotanan is: NOY GUILLY<BR/> <BR/>Hopefully naka-ila ka pa sa ako.<BR/> <BR/>Guilly Paden<BR/>gilpicador@yahoo.comMadzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306223989893089641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669582532594557726.post-29539800359155675172009-01-12T18:42:00.000+00:002009-01-12T18:42:00.000+00:00Hi,I've found your blog thru google when I searche...Hi,<BR/><BR/>I've found your blog thru google when I searched for hingotanan island philippines.

Well, I am the eldest daughter of PASTOR BASALO (Baptist church). Ummmmm if you never visited Hingotanan for at least 25 years, then we would not have been there yet I guess! <BR/><BR/>My family still lives there, in fact we visited just last month with my hubby for 7 days only! Changes? progress? uumm I can't really think of anything special that have happened there...people are still the same except that you won't see those old faces anymore during your time hehehe..<BR/><BR/>Will be writing about our fishing experience this time, well if you explore my blogs, I have written about Panglao Island Nature Resort too which we only came to visit this time!

This island too gave me so many good memories. Sadly, i have not been to the island for maybe 25 years and i wonder what progress has been made. My grandfather is the late Oben Mabalatan. I have promised my kids to take them to the island in 2005 but was warned of high winds so we could not take the joyful pumpboat ride. Next time na lang. What is your maiden name, basin pa makaila ko nimo.<BR/>Be well<BR/><BR/>TedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
