Dindo’s portrait shows up
Posted on June 27, 2008, 5:13 PM under Political Spectrum
I intend to do a one-post-a-day, but I don’t think this can wait until tomorrow. I dropped by the municipal hall to get some documents (concreting of the Baras-Pinugay road) when I noticed this new image.
If you would remember, I posted about the missing portrait of former Mayor Dionisio Donato “Dindo” Garciano in February. After four months, his portrait appeared in the municipal building.
You would notice, however, that leaves of palmera partly hide the name and the image itself. This is the worm’s eye view, followed by the top and side views.
Looking at the picture, it seems that the portrait was made by the same person who did the Robert Ferrera image.
According to Susan Mendoza, head of the General Services Office, the image was brought up by the Dindo camp about three weeks ago. She did not specify who gave the image.

Holy cow! why don’t they just re-arrange them? there’s too much space at the top portion of the wall. Simple problem with a simple solution instead of making much ado about nothing.

Masyadong mabababaw ang politika sa bayan natin Michael. Lahat big deal. Lahat may ibig-sabihin. Nakakalungkot.

This is an article from the Presidential Management Staff website re the Baras-Pinugay Road Project. I researched on it to help the website administrator in his investiagtion as mentioned in the article.
GMA acts to complete unfinished road project in Baras
BARAS, Rizal—President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo today visited Baras town in Rizal province where she inspected a P24-million road project considered as a catalyst for the accelerated growth of the municipality.
The President also said meaningful peace in Rizal can only be achieved by improving the quality of life of the people.
The President disclosed that Baras Mayor Dindo Garciano sought the national government’s assistance due to lack of funding for the completion of the said road project.
She said she took the money requested by Garciano from her social fund.
“I was told by Mayor Dindo (Garciano) that they don‚Äôt have the money to construct this municipal road and he requested for funding from the national government, and this road project is a an initiative from the President‚Äòs social fund” Mrs. Macapagal-Arroyo said.
Garciano thanked the President for going out of her way to personally deliver the fund needed to complete the Baras-Pinugay Road that links up with the Marikina–Infanta road to the eastern part of Rizal.
He reported to President Arroyo that the road project is already 70 to 80 percent completed.
Garciano noted that because of her great concern for their welfare, the people of Baras would give her their total support in the May 10 synchronized election.

Interesting article.

natapos ba ang project na ito?
July 4th, 2008 at 6:44 am
Matagal na pong tapos ang project. Kung kayo po ay pumupunta ng pinugay, siguradong nadaanan niyo na yang project ni Mayor Dindo, at makikita niyo ang ganda ng pagkakagawa.

I saw the portrait and I guess there is a better location for Dindo’s portrait. If only somebody knowledgeable in interior design will be tapped to give a professional advice in at least re-arranging all the portraits. I am sure there are designers who are willing to help, even without fee. But, the huge problem in that hall is that almost all you encounter are all bosses. The bosses of all bosses. The Capos di Capis!!! Sadly, in that hall, there are Designers, Structural Engineers, Architects, Surveyors, Lawyers, Economists, Financial Analysts, Planners, Environmentalists, Agriculturists, etc… Name it, they have it!!! Do you notice the large billboard in Organic Agriculture? It should have been well-planned, studied and conceptualized, and properly designed. Sad to say, there’s no weight to that sign. None at all! Or better, no billboard at all with the theme of Baras being the first Organic Town! That theme is just a Product Of An Organic Imagination. We feel sad. Very sad as we were fools to believe!

To Website author:
Sir,
I hope you’re having a fine day! I just noticed that when you browse on BRO, you don’t see the latest comments. You still have to click on each post. Was that done for a purpose?
July 15th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
@ Florante
No, that was not done in purpose; it was the design of this template. I barely modified this template since this just temporary. As you might have noticed, posting of comments were disabled last week to give way for the reformat of the website. I am still tweaking the new template that will be installed. It will be more graphics oriented. I will also make some changes on the way BRO delivers news and updates.

well, i think they should change its position. A simple problem with simple solution. Probably no greater honor can come to any man than the respect of his colleagues………. ….. If you have some respect for people as they are, you can be more effective in helping them to become better than they are”.
August 19th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Nice comment beth, i would like to believe that our our current mayor knows how to respect his presdecessor.
August 19th, 2008 at 11:31 am
*predecessor
December 26th, 2008 at 12:58 pm
HELLO! speaking of RESPECT, i’ve seen the portrait last DECEMBER 5, 2008, wow! its sad that they didn’t changE IT. IMBIERNA talaga! I want to change it personally. The palmera keeps growing and growing!!!! Kulang na lang takpan portrait ni DINDO. Sino kaya sa kanila ang makakaisip mabago ang pwesto. sANA LANG wag nila maexperience such HUMILIATION like that. Picture pa lang yan, NAKIKITA ang kulay!! Simple but i want to make it clear that its NOT PROPER to do things like that!!

Malakas ang balibalita na nagsama ang apat na malalakas na partido para itaguyod ang pagbabalik ni Dindo. Tinagurian itong (BUO) o “Baras United Opposition” na kinasasapian ng Lakas, Kampi,NPC, at Liberal Party, at ang sigaw ay Alisin ang IMMORALIDAD sa munisipyo!!!
January 21st, 2009 at 2:49 pm
I don’t think the Liberal Party had not joined the group. Some members probably are attending some of BUO meetings but there’s no official move yet from the party. That’s what I heard.
January 21st, 2009 at 2:51 pm
Sorry for the error. (I don’t think the Liberal Party had joined the group.). Sorry!!!!
February 5th, 2009 at 11:28 am
Hi, its been a long time since I’ve posted a comment. Just have BREAKING NEWS: The representatives of 4 major political parties (Lakas,Kampi,NPC, and the Liberal Party) will meet tonight at the residence of Mayor Dindo to formalize the creation of the BUO (Baras United Opposition)and will endorse the tandem of MAYOR DINDO- NATO LLAGAS (Vice Mayor) as the Dream Team in the coming 2010 elections. This is a very strong tandem and opposition group that would surely give the incumbent a big headache and a run for his money.
February 7th, 2009 at 9:27 am
Maganda yan. Mukhang unbeatable!! Malaki ang magiging tulong sa bayan ng dalang talino at karanasan ng Mayor Dindo -Kons. Nato Llagas tandem na ito, parehong taong Simbahan at mga buo ang pamilya. Napakahalaga ng Moralidad sa mga nanunungkulan sa mga halal ng bayan. Its about time!!!
February 10th, 2009 at 5:55 am
KUNG TOTOO MAN YAN, AY OK ANG TEAM NA IYAN. I’m not a politician but, I am for a better change. Baras people would know better who are the best for the position.
February 10th, 2009 at 9:33 pm
4 parties as one? Parang kape – 4 in one!!!! dream team talaga pero parang IMPOSSIBLE DREAM ! The Liberal Party will have Mar Roxas as the Presidential Standard Bearer, but as for the local set-up, the party is still divided and will regroup only for the aim of a common stand for national election. The project now is named BALIK LIBERAL, to search former Liberal P. members, and their families. At present, majority of the Liberal Party Officers and the members of the Executive Committee still give strong support to the present administration. Unless, of course, a huge turn-around will occur with irrepairable issues by the administration. It is still a wait-and-see thing. SULONG LIBERAL !!!!
February 11th, 2009 at 10:51 pm
That will be the biggest problem of Mar Roxas. It will be very difficult for him to sustain a nationwide campaign without directly supporting local candidates from governor to mayor. As things are in Rizal, the lines are already clearly drawn. It’s a Cuerpo (Lakas and supported by the NPC Rodriguez/ Kampi Puno/ and Liberal Gatlabayan and Sanchez) vs. the group of PMP Ynares/Duavit. Cuerpo is expected to support the Admin endorsed Presidential candidate and Ynares the Opposition candidate. The Local line ups will just go by these groupings. Mayor Dindo as I have heard is a close ally of Mayor Cuerpo!!

Funny, but when individuals from other places inquire as to why Baras doesn’t have Mercury Drug, Save More and a University satellite campus…all that we could give as an answer is “Morong is center of education” while “Tanay is center of Commerce” and so “BARAS is center of centers”
Until when shall we remain as center of centers?
The call for us make the most qualified pick could lead us to the answer.
Let us be more vigilant. Go for more than an intelligent choice. GO FOR A REALISTIC CHOICE— THE CHOICE WITH WHOM YOU HAVE PERSONALLY KNOWN AND STUDIED THE “H QUALIFICATIONS”— HEAD, HEART AND HANDS ARE CONSISTENTLY LEADING AND HEART WARMING FOR PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE.
February 17th, 2009 at 7:02 pm
just want to complete the thought of my line.
The call for us to make the most qualified pick could lead us to the answer.

TROUBLE MAKERS!!!…
BAck OFF!!!]

Correct.The present admin should back off from performing grossly immoral acts, like ABS-(Alak, Babae, Sugal).
July 13th, 2009 at 12:17 pm
tama ka rogie.may kasabihan nga tayo,kung ang pinuno ay haling tauhan pa ang gumaling.haling sa babae iyong pinuno.lahat yata ng babae sa munisipyo kasosyo siya.
August 7th, 2009 at 3:48 pm
DINDO vs.WILLY PART II sa 2010,BUO NA, THE MUCH AWAITED REMATCH!!! Let the will of the people be the Judge!!!
August 13th, 2009 at 8:54 am
In yet another development, through the efforts of Mayor Dindo, Engr. Querubin, former Municipal Engineer, has won his case filed by the Pinugay tenants with the Supreme Court, thereby allowing him to get his retirement benefits and go back to govt. service in another position or capacity where there is a vacancy. Sana naman ma recognize ng INC ang efforts ni Mayor Dindo ng pagtulong sa mga kaanib nito, kahit wala siya sa pwesto.

Suportahan natin si CUERPO sa gobernador, Garciano sa BARAS, tapusin ang political dynasty sa rizal!
