Finally, the question that many asked—Will suspended Cebu governor Gwendolyn Garcia dance in the Sinulog grand parade? —was answered last Sunday when she appeared on stage at the Cebu City Sports Center, danced with the contingent from Liloan town and was applauded by spectators.
IN line with the Sinulog celebration, the University of Southern Philippines Foundation (USPF) College Supreme Student Government held its first Sto. Niño Exhibit 2013, with the theme “USPF Journeys in Faith with Sto. Niño.”
Thunderous applause and a standing ovation from the grandstand were an early sign of the victory of Alang-Alang from Leyte province, which was adjudged champion of the Sinulog 2013 in free-interpretation dancing.
Suspended Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia last night got her wish to dance for the last time in the 33rd Sinulog Festival at the Cebu Sports Center as thousands in the crowd cheered.
“THIS is the best festival I’ve sen in the Philippines,” said Polish tourist Wesley Dudzinski.
The phrase which usually precedes each Star Wars movie came to mind when a group of participants dressed in costumes of characters in the iconic sci-fi movie joined yesterday’s parade.

THE “three kings” of the opposition United Nationalist Alliance were in Cebu again yesterday during the Sinulog to visit their ally suspended Cebu Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia, nearly a month since their last visit.
The weekend’s Fiesta Señor and Sinulog grand parade once again affirmed the deep devotion of the Cebuanos to the Holy Child Jesus.
Days before the grand Sinulog celebration, people were anticipating street parades and Mardi Gras with bright-colored costumes and parties. But among all these things, people should not forget the essence of the celebration devotion.
