Foreword
Treading the CGSMS path is arduous that requires virtue and skills to make
you go through it.
I have a dream ; a big dream: to be an instrument that will awaken the eyes of
every Narranian to support Girl Scouting Movement. I dream of becoming the
first Narranian Senior Girl Scout to receive the Chief Girl Scout Medal. I want
to be an inspiration to all my sisters in Girl Scouting in Narra, Palawan, to
desire for greater goals like the CGSMS and show the people in my place that
Girl Scouting is not just the wearing of green dress, attending camps, nor the
enjoyment brought by the glory of the badges received.
I dream of becoming a spark that will kindle the spirit of desire of every girl to
desire to serve the community and be a catalysts for change.
I have a plan to create a work group that would support candidates so that
Narra can produce more CGSMS aspirants per year. I am praying for Gods’
guidance and blessings to accomplish these things I just keep inside.
Long Live the Girl Scouting Movement!

Introduction and Background
The native tribe of the “Tagbanua’s who are now settled in the area near the sea,
once lived uphill in the mountains of barangay Malinao. Their peace was
shattered when rebel forces invaded their ancestral land. As a result the local
government of Narra provided them a place to re-settle in order to resume to their
normal family life in a place called Purok Pagkakaisa.
The survey reveals that the area is composed of four clans, the Batacs, Diazes,
Espinosas and the Ulosans, the people residing at the edges of the purok travels 2
kilometer just to fetch their drinking water.
The residents fetch water from a single PALTUBIG (Palawan Tubig) water pump
situated in a farmland in the area. It is the only water pump that produces safe
drinking water. The other artesian well in the purok produces salty water which
is used only for household cleaning while some water pumps are not drinkable
according to the water testing result.
The first plan was to install the electric water pump to the PALTUBIG, allowing
the flow of fresh drinking water downwards with the use of PVC pipes to the sea
edges. The plan was not materialized due to the fact that the PALTUBIG bears a
cylinder. If an electric pump will be attached to the PALTUBIG, the well can not
be used when electricity is not available. That action would cause another
problem to the nearby houses that uses the water well for washing.
After several deliberations, the barangay council and the residents decided that
the water pump located in the residence of Mrs. Cristy Diaz, the purok day care
worker shall be use instead.

10
Project Description
The project is called”WATER SOURCE INSTALLATION’ is inspired by the
WAGGGS slogan “Girls Worldwide say “think about water.” It is designed to
improve the Tagbanuas’ way of life by providing them easy access to safe
drinking water.
The project emerges from the desire of an ordinary Senior Girl Scout from
Narra, Palawan to make a difference and to put Narra Senior Girl Scout
movement in the map of Chief Girl Scout Medal Scheme history.
The project has yielded attention as well as heighting public interest about
CGSMS in the town of Narra.

11
ProjectObjectives
The major goal of the project
Improve the quality of life of the Tagbanua’s by providing them easy access
to safe drinking water.
Supply clean water to the less fortunate people so they can live healthier and more
productive lives.
This will be accomplished through specific objectives as follows:
1. Bridge the gap that divides the modern citizens of Narra and the native
Tagbanua tribe.
2. Awaken the overshadowed Bayanihan culture among the purok residents.
3. Educate the Tagbanuas on water sanitation and conservation.
4. Create awareness amongst the members of the community to practice a quarterly
water testing to ensure water sanitation.
5. Encourage Girl Scouts to participate in community projects.
6. Raise community awareness amongst Narranian to appreciate the importantrole of
scouting in molding the youth of today.
7. Spread the tidings that Girl Scouts can make a difference.

12
Project Methodology:
The candidate with the work group visits the project area every two weeks but
visitation was done as need arises. Communication between the work group
and the barangay council is always open through mobile texting and calls.
Networking with various government offices, private individuals and local
NGO’s such as Rotary Club of Narra, Interact Club and Lions Club was
utilized to extend help to the Tagbanua Tribe of Purok Pagkaka-isa.
Project Budget:
The items incurred in the expenses:
1. Electric water pump
2. PVC pipes
3. Water tank
4. Foods during the Christmas party and giveaways to kids
5. Souvineers/T-shirts for the residents
6. Transportation Expenses

13
I choose water project because
WATER CHANGES EVERYTHING.
A clean water project nearby means more than safe drinking water to women and
children in Purok Pagkaka-isa, Malinao, Narra , Palawan; it means time, freedom and
incentive to change their community. Supplying clean water to the less fortunate
people means healthier and more productive lives.
Unsafe water could kill people more than all forms of violence, including war.

14
I am a Girl Scout with a big dream for humanity and I hope this project is a stepping
stone for a bigger service to the Filipino society.

Too much of everything is dangerous
Water swallowed the town of Narra, including my home and my area project at Purok Pagkaka-
isa, Malinao. Water………..the focus area of my CGSMS project destroyed my hometown.

88
Hand waves amidst the calamity
Residents of my area project of Purok Pagkaka-isa, Malinao evacuated to the Ramon
V. Mitra Gymnasium with the help of the military trucks. Women and children were
the priority one.
Visiting the purok is impossible.

89
The public servants and a Girl Scout
Making lists of evacuees with the LGU personnel’s and a GMA 7 media man.

Five kilos of rice matters a lot during hard times
Volunteering to pack kilos of rice and canned goods at the Rotary Club of Narra
clubhouse with Rotarians’ Kuya Rogel and Kuya Maning.

91
A little act of kindness to lift up the devastated souls
Distributing t-shirts to the evacuees at Ramon V. Mitra gymnasium.

93
Over sized but contented
A little soul found comfort inside the oversized t-shirt intended for my project

94
Service above self in real life
Reaching the farthest end of Narra with the Rotary Club. Rotary Club of Narra
President, Rtn. Jorge De La Torre calling the residents to gather for the bundles
prepared for them.

95
Bundles of joy for the native Tagbanua’s
Rice and canned goods for the families victimized by the flood.
It’s surprising to discover that in hardship the bayanihan spirit is still alive in the
hearts of every people in my town. Looking at the men and women who served
the masses that suffered during the flood…….thoughts flashed across my mind
with printed loud letters that read………….they are boy and girl scouts during
their younger years.

96
This is MINE !!!!!!!!!!!!
Rotarians are hands on in distributing food packs to the people; while on the far end
I was assisting my father Rtn. Cris Lumba on listing and announcing the recipients.
Walwalting, (a.k.a. MYRNA) as many people would call her in my town eagerly
grabs the pack of food with fear that it might be taken by someone else’s.
My mother and I always rove around the poblacion with her Kawasaki Fury, and
one time we passed by Walwaltings’ home……………my heart bleed upon seeing
where she lives. In my mind grew a desire that one of these days when things will
be all right I shall seek people who could help me to give Myrna a descent house.

97
A promise to keep
Rtn. President Jorge De La Torre, swears to the community that this is not the end but
instead this is only the start of showing that Rotary cares.
During younger years I don’t understand what father is doing in the organizations he is in.
All I know is that during Christmas time we would attend parties with influential people in
our town and make friends with their wives and kids. Today at the age of 14 I totally
understand, the awakening engulf my whole being that people like the Rotarians are not just
there for socializing and friendship because behind their stature in society they are lending a
hand to the needy.

98
Spirit of sharing is in the air
During these days when water was on hip level even in my own house, father , I and his
friends from Rotary Club of Narra managed to help many people. I never thought that I could
be a part in this kind of undertakings. While my brothers and cousins are busy fixing our
flooded home, I was away helping others. Many rivers overflowed including the creek beside
my home which all members of my family loved because it is a home of many species
including the turtles, fish and otters that we loot during the night.

An ocean of frustration flooded my town

Spreading the news about CGSMS in the town of Narra
The Senior Girl Scouts of San Francisco Javier College and Panacan National High School,
together with our titas, Tita Magz and Tita Sham, gathered at the Rotary Club of Narra
clubhouse to hear the good news on what scouting opportunities we could possibly have in our
lifetime. Tita Daisy Nalzaro, the Council Executive told us stories on international camps and
the enjoyment meeting other cultures could bring. We meet new acquaintances and created
new friendship through games and round songs. Tita Daisy oriented us about the Pilar Hidalgo,
Magic Spot and the Chief Girl Scout Medal Scheme awards. She shared her experiences and
inspiring anecdotes that made the Senior Girl Scouts of Narra livelier more than ever..

Unfinished business

103
For the past few months’ the power of nature almost devastated my spirit because there were a
lot of things I need to accomplish yet hindrances’ targeted them down one by one like an
arrow hitting an apple in Robin Hoods aim. The economic situation of my hometown
decreased my chances of getting support from the local government unit of Narra due to the
fact that they need to priorities financial releases due to the calamities happened. The situation
seems so gloomy and the project is struggling in an ocean of problems.
March 27, 2011, Saturday, we revisited the project area with the sun up high in the horizon.
Back for good!
The work group managed to re-visit again Purok Pagkaka-isa; we first made a courtesy to the purok president,
Wilfredo Batac.

104
Though things seem not that fine as expected when I started the project, I keep
faith that God will lend His arms to help me. It was agreed that the water
education session will be in the next week end in the 5th
of April. Many kids
were curious at our re-visitation that day.
Happy together!
Chattingwith KuyaWilfredo was fun, for healways assuresus that wearealways welcometo visit them.

105
Slipper less Kids
Bare footed kids that roams around the purok is an
ordinary view at my project area. Then, I remember
Balitang K’s gimmick on giving away slippers to little
kids, wish I could do that too in the future.

106
All journeys’ starts with a single step!
In an earthly road of the Purok Pagkaka-isa, we made the start towards the
unknown zone towards the edges of the place near the sea. We were led by a
five-year old boy named Justine, who keep talking and nagging how slow poke
we are.

107
Two by two the Girl Scouts came
We managed to gallop above the muddy paths of the purok to reach for
the edges of the area. We might not conquer it that time but there is
always a next time.

108
Safety first, txt S.O.S!
We need to get across a thinly made coco bridge in order to get the
other side of the creek, it was a challenge but we laughingly
managed to do it.
Balancing was the solution.

109
Upon a dried well
Thirsty as we are but the well got no water in it.

110
Who’s taller?
Never seen an artesian well that tall before, only in the
Philippines I think.

111
Tiptoeing across the rice paddies!
As we started to cross the rice fields the soil was
hard and firm but as we were in the midst we
discover that some of them are soft and freshly
made. Our shoes were wet and soiled.

112
Simplicity up-close!
Houses like this one are scattered around the place.

113
Refuge at last!
Grasping our breath we took rest in the very first house we saw.

114
Stop Look and Listen!
Peeping on the steel pipe left undone.

115
Let there be water!
Inspecting the possibility of completing an unfinished business.

116
How can we solve the problem like WATER!
Chieftain Lorenzo Ulusan, told us that it would be beneficial for them if
the unfinished business be completed. An hour of asking and answering
with the Tagbanua chieftain filled that noontime. We’ve learned that this
native folks doesn’t like neighbors who are not like them.

117
“We are thirsty”!
But where can we get drinking water? People here fetch water from
the far upper part of the purok, so it’s a shameful thing to ask for water
isn’t it?

118
Even the dogs do welcome us
Timid and shy the neighborhood kids pose with us for a shot and so
with the dog.

119
A square in a root
Four Girl Scouts sitting on the roots of an old mango tree that provided us rest
from a long and tedious walk. Where are the chairs?

120
This is heavier than that maybe
The Chieftain showed us some pieces of their culture.

We passed by little kids playing, swimming and shouting on the river.

Laughing out loud with nature
Playing with the kids of the area led us to realize how simple their lives
are. Innocence, simplicity and simply a happy soul is what they got.
They don’t care about leeches nor infections, they’re just are happy
kids.

My father was very busy during these days, for the month of March is graduation
time. He represents the honorable mayor in many commencement exercises and he
can never drove us to the project area for a week or more. .We were told that the
yellow elf , a municipal government vehicle will be travelling to Aramaywan, a far
flung barangay south and the vehicle will pass by my project area. We went to the
municipal hall to wait for the driver. We were happy to visit the tourism lobby for
we’ve read much information about my town as well as my project area barangay

We climb up to the yellow elf and swisssssssshhhhhhhhh we go. The driver told us
that he will just drop us at the corner of the purok because he is racing with time and
missions for that day. He even enumerated several things he needs to accomplish that
day. Upon reaching the kanto of the purok Pagkaka-isa we thank him for his kindness.
Luckily a tricycle came and offered us a ride towards the innermost part of the purok.
We chose to stop at the PALTUBIG to see how this source of water helps the people
there.

We met a little boy fetching water from the PALTUBIG and we tried our very

Girl Scouts who were with me were jolly by nature especially the Panacan
Girl Scouts who supported me in my quest for CGSMS. I promised to myself

Fearsome shot with the mans’ beast of burden
An aged carabao resting near the bushes along the road caught our
attention and some of the girls requested to be pictured with this mighty
creature. We found it hard enough to get near because fear ate our soul
for its heart shaped horn shines with sharpness. The smell of the animal
mixed with wet mud of the area conquered the atmosphere. Our fear
was covered with laughter with funny gyrations from the girls.

Someone had died and they need help
Descending down the river was difficult suddenly we were stopped by a
man calling on us and informed us that someone had died in the purok. We
followed the man into a little shack with several people eating lunch at its
porch. I noticed some of them were fixing a little white coffin made from a
very ordinary wood. We’ve learned that a six-month little angel died the
previous day due to DIARRHEA.
Am I too late?

Ask and you shall be fed
Lunch time came and we decided to eat our lunch along the river
together with the kids of the area. We shared our food with each other
and even to the little ones of the area. A kid told us that the last meal
they got was not that good and their viand was just sautéed young
papaya, which tastes awful. Since our baon was nice lookin’ to their eyes
and seemed enticed their taste buds, mother told me to fed the kids.
Luckily we brought two sets of viand enough for all of us.

After lunch we chatted, laughed and threw jokes that made us burst into
happiness that cause us to forget the death of an angel in the area for
sometime. We showed and introduced the laptop to the kids who
happened to see a computer for the first time. Videos about the
IMPORTANCE OF WATER, WATER CYCLE and USES OF
WATER were played for the children to comprehend the value of our

PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
The month of May came and I was so nervous about the water project
implementation phase for the people around were so busy and I am busy keeping
inserting myself and my project to their schedules. Barangay Malinao foundation
day kept them occupied and I can not blame them for it is an annual celebration
that became a tradition for so many years now.
Meanwhile, I was able to convince my father to visit the busy barangay
captain to make a schedule for the erection of the water pump. Hon. Tess Cabanag
told us that she will be free on the 26th
of the month. She assigned Kagawad
Gideon Vicente to assist me on the undertakings and preparations needed to be
accomplished before the erection.
That day we went to the project area with the barangay officials.

148
MAY 20, 2010
Stepping down from the vehicle three iron wood posts was visible and I was
delighted that the purok residents has been doing their assigned task to provide post for
the water tank. The purok president told us that the post lacks one because we need four
posts for the elevation but the carpenter said that it is fine to have three posts because he
can do the triangle type of post.

The group inspected the PALTUBIG,the water pump that to be hacked
and to be connected with electric pump to distribute water nearer to the houses. It

find another water source.

We left the water tank in a nearby house for safekeeping and we proceeded to
the inner part of the purok.

Evaluation
and
Turn-over Ceremony
June 12, 2011

178
I was so nervous but happy. Nervous because I am going to talk with
the evaluators and I am not sure if I can answer their questions well
enough on the other hand happy because the 8 month old project is
now serving the people of Purok Pagkaka-isa.

179
The community and members of the Confederation of Senior Girl
Scouts of Narra District came to support my project. The group was
created by Tita Sham Lumba together with Tita Candi Impig, and Tita
Bebot Ramos to become the support group for those who would work
for the CGSMS. Luckily I was the first one to work for the medal. The
group will be helping 3 Girl Scouts next year who will aspire for the
CGSMS.

180
Tita Norma Valencia, Tita Tess Macial, Tita Flor Mante and Tita
Daisy Nalzaro came .
Tita Flor Mante is a family to us and I couldn’t allow this
accomplishment be celebrated without her. She was my Tita-
Nanay in church camps nor in GSP camps since when I was 7
years old. She’s my Sunday school teacher too in the Baptist
church where we are attending worships. Though my mother
during that time doesn’t want me to attend campings because I
am too young to be away from home and since I am the only
daughter she could not sleep at night with me in our home.
Upon learning that Tita Flor will be my nanay in the GSP camp

181
Tita Norma Valencia and Tita Tess Marcial bombarded me with
questions.
Though I was nervous, I am confident that I could answer them
because everything about my CGSMS project happened upon my very
eye and consciousness.

182
Tita Daisy Nalzaro conversed with the purok resident’s
right upon their arrival.

183
My support group initiated the program. I heartily thank them for the
sacrifices they have done for the CGSMS project.

Justine, young as he is has given me something upon
our exit from their purok. He gave me a young coconut
bud in Bisaya we call it “putot” that I still kept up to
now in my room. I don’t know what he meant for it
but for me it is a gift from someone I met in my quest
for CGSMS. It is a special token. Indeed.

Outcome of the Project:
The project started with a survey on the households of Purok
Pagkakaisa, Malinao Narra, Palawan; with the participation of the Senior
Girl Scouts of Troop 767 of Panacan National High School and San
Francisco Javier Troop 832.
Through the survey we found out the top three needs of the Purok;
third is the road condition, second the electricity, and number one
problem is water.
The following are the reasons why Purok Pagkakaisa has limited source of
safe drinking water:
1. Poverty
 Almost everyone on the Purok is unemployed; only few of them has a job
better call it an irregular job. It is hard for them to make money to provide
the needs of their families including safe water source.
Chlorination was conducted and yielded a safe drinking water for
the Tagbanua families.

212
 Some of the elders haven’t got a chance to study, some of them reached
elementary/high school only. With their lack of proper education they
find it hard to find a regular well-paying job.
 Since they find it hard to find a well-paying job, they cannot handle the
high cost of living. They often have no spare income for their expenses
whether it is for emergency or not. Some of them only rely on their tribe’s
1% share from mining.
2. Instead of using the money they get from the mining company to
provide what their tribe needs, they used the money to buy cellular phones for
their enjoyment. They also bought three motorcycles to be used as the tribes
service whenever they need to go to Poblacion, the sad thing is that the ones
who were assigned to take care of the motorcycles won’t let others to ride on it
they only use it for their own.
3. Families have no knowledge about family planning. Families have
many children which resulted into more financial problems. They couldn’t
provide what their children needs; they couldn’t spare enough money to put
up a safe water source.
4. Parents have no knowledge on how important clean water is. It’s
alright with them even if their child is bathing on the river with a carabao.
5. The Purok is located near the ocean. So even if they put up lots and lots
of pumps over and over again they can’t use the pump because of the salty
water it produces.

213
Weekly visitations were done by the applicant with help from some co-Senior
Girl Scouts.
Water education is being done by the applicant to the children and the
elderly of Purok Pagkakaisa, Malinao, Narra, Palawan.
All of the elderly men and household heads of the Purok helped on
putting up the tank, they were all thankful because they don’t need anymore
to walk long distance to fetch safe drinking water. It has been a very tough job
but every time I see the smiles that my project has cost it was all worth it.
Project Impact to the Recipients
1. It lessens the distance the Tagbanuas need to walk just to
get drinking water.
2. The children learned the different uses and how important
clean water is.
3. Through chlorination, now the Tagbanuas have fresh and
clean drinking water.
4. Families realized the value of water and learned how to use
water wisely.
5. The families learned the importance of clean water.

214
6. The families learned how to disinfect the water that they
drink.
7. The community appreciated Girl Scouting more than
before.
Impact to the Aspirant
I learned a lot of things from the CGSMS experience:
1. I become more confident on when dealing with fellow man especially
the indigent people.
2. I become friendly to many people regardless of their color and social
status.
3. I learned to manage my time especially during school days.
4. I learned to control my temper.
5. I learned to adjust to the attitudes of newly known people.
6. I learned to be contented of what I have.
7. It made me want to help others who are in need.

215
8. I learned to be patient every time I need to talk to the barangay official
of barangay Malinao and Poblacion, officials of DSWD and to the
Sanitary inspectors.
9. I learned to thank God more for guiding me and for giving me
supportive parents.
10. I realized that what I’m doing isn’t all about the award that I’m going
to have instead I realized that it’s all about helping those who are in need.
11. The exposure with the indigent people made me decide to serve the
masses through my leadership in the Interact Club of Narra.
Recommendations:
1. The barangay officials should regularly monitor the condition of the
water pump machine and the quality of water it produces.
2. A quarterly chlorination shall be conducted to insure the safeness of the
water consumed by the residents.

216
3. I recommend the continuance of Girl Scout project and CGSMS in the
area to address the other needs of the people.

CGSMS Experience Synthesis
A Record of thoughts and actions
Experience Synthesis 1:

240
How do I apply the learning’s gained from your spiritual readings in my
project?
Treading the CGSMS path is arduous that requires virtue and skills to
make you go through it. There were lot of challenges you have to overcome,
but reading God’s word and with God’s guidance the load becomes lighter for
He gave me the strength to get through all the hardships.
I have a dream ; a big dream: to be an instrument of the almighty. His words
were “whatever you do to the least of my brethren, you do it unto Me.” This is
the challenge I took upon myself. Though over whelming I’ll just take the
steps in my small way to do the task. I dream also of becoming the first
Narranian Senior Girl Scout to be on the Malacanang palace to receive the
CGSMS Medal and be an inspiration to all my sisters in Girl Scouting in my
hometown: I dream of becoming a spark that will kindle the spirit of desire to
be included in the lists of CGSMS awardees. To make my dreams come true,
there are lot of things to be done and lot of things to get through. Every day
we are experiencing lot of trials, the trials that may make us feel weak, feel
hopeless, but we must always remember that even though we are completely
laden and hopeless, God is always there to help us. We should always
remember to pray and ask for God’s guidance. Through reading God’s word
we strengthen our faith, soul and body. Faith is our weapon against life’s
hardships and problems along the way. The problems that we experience are
factors that may make us stronger if you will use positivity. We must always
remember that Lord our God is always there for us, whenever we need help

241
we could just pray and read the Bible. As we grow up, we face more and more
choices in our world of difficulties make us ask what should I do? Our
Christian faith gives the answer “Follow Christ”, we all know that God loves
us, He will do nothing that will harm us. Sometimes He gives us problems but
it’s only for us to become tougher and stronger. Whenever we feel alone, we
must always remember that no one is alone; God is always there beside us,
even though we cannot see Him we can feel His love and care for us.
Whenever we need help, just pray and God will be there to help us. With God
on our side, who can be against us?

with my co-Senior Girl Scouts who would support me on my project.
The group was so jolly even though we are new to each other; they made me
comfortable with them. After the meet up, my Mom and I went to barangay
Malinao to gather data’s for the community profile, but the data’s weren’t
ready yet. We had our meeting with the barangay kagawads about my project
on their area and they accepted my project.
10/02/10
Survey day! All of us were so excited, even though the weather isn’t on our
side it doesn’t stopped us to have our survey. All of us were clueless of what
will happen to us that day, the water is on our knee level because of the strong
rain. All of us were hungry and very tired. Even though all of us were all
hungry and tired all of us still enjoyed.
10/03/10
The Tribal Council gathered in the area chapel to conduct consultation among
the tribal chief and it’s kagawads regarding the acceptance of the Tagbanuas on

more Tagbanuas people attending.

worked during the night in preparation for GSP council visit the next day.
10/09/10
The Tribal Council together with the Barangay officials and other fellow
Tagbanuas gathered at the house of Mr. Wilfredo Batac. The Tagbanuas
welcomed us warmly as I propose my project for the CGSMS. Together with
my co-scouts, Senior Girl Scout Sophia Gayoso and Senior Girl Scout Jennifer
Balba, we met the Tagbanuas and oriented them what is our purpose on their
purok. At the end of the day all of them were so thankful that I’ve chosen their
purok tobe project area.
Though it was rainy the meeting ended successfully.
12/15/10
Today I and my mom went to Ms. Adelaida Vega, the sanitary inspector,to
ask help and suggestions for my project. She told us the things we should
consider on putting up water pumps. She said that I could discuss to the
Tagbanuas about SODIS or the Solar Disinfection, SODIS is supposed to
disinfect our drinking water.
Though it was a tiring day it’s all worth it.

A,M.
My Mom and I went to Capt. Tess Cabanag to plan on the Launching
Program of my project. Capt.Cabanag suggested that I could give gifts for
the children.
After visiting Capt. Cabanag we went straight to the market to purchase
what we are going to give the Tagbanuas. We found some dolls and bought
some to give the young girls.
We retured home almost dark with high hopes that the event
would be successful.
P.M.
Today is the original day which my launching program must be held, but
because of the weather it was postponed and been moved on December 28.
Depressing but still thankful.

Program the next day.
At night, I together with my brothers repacked all the goods we bought for
tomorrows Launching Program.
It was a very tiring day but it was all worth it.
12/28/10

246
This is it, the big day! I woke up early as I get ready for the Launching
Program of my project “water source installation” for the Tagbanuas of
Purok Pagkakaisa, Malinao II, Narra, Palawan. After dressing up I went
straight to my school to meet up with Tita Julie Rodriguez and Tita Delia
Caabay and with my co-Senior Girl Scouts. Even though it was raining hard
the show must go on. When the vehicle arrived we went straight to the area
of the launching program.
The program started with an opening song led by the Senior Girl Scout of
SFJC. After the program we gave snacks for the Tagbanuas. We also gave
dolls to the girls. We also gave souvenir shirts to the elderly.
It was a very tiring day but after seeing the joy that we had caused the
Tagbanuas made me more eager and inspired to fulfill my project.
January

247
This month I was scheduled to teach the Tagbanuas water education as
a part of the implementation of my project. But heavy rainfalls which
persisted for several days that resulted to massive flood hindered the
plan. Many roads were destroyed in Narra specially the roads leading to
Malinao. Many families from the barangay evacuated to the Poblacion’s
Ramon V. Mitra Gymnasium. Their homes were overflowed with the
flood and also their plants and domestic animals died. For the days of
their stay in the gymnasium I frequently visit them together with my
father. We gave away the shirts which were left when I launched my
CGSMS project and luckily mother had save many shirts maybe in Gods
will never known before to be given away for the poor evacuees.. The
Rotary Club of Narra, Rotary International and the Rotary Club of
Puerto Princessa donated goods for the affected families.
On the second day there, I helped in the repacking for the distribution
to the people on the gym which includes families from Panacan II and
Malinao II. The repacked bags contain 5 kilos of rice, 5 cans of sardines,
6 packs of noodles and some dried fish.

The families which received the gifts were very grateful. Their smiles
erased all the fatigue I felt then and I feel that all the efforts were not in
vain.

Would you believe that
these are not waves from
the sea? This is the
massive flood that
destroyed Narra.

I woke up early, excited for today’s activity. Today is the visitation on my
project area. Because of the damages the strong rain had left, it’s been a while
since the last time we visited Malinao II. Mom, Dad and I, went to Panacan
National High School to pick up my fellow Girl Scouts who will accompany
me for the visitation. When we arrived on Malinao II, we went straight to the
house of the Purok President, Mr. Wilfredo Batac. He gave us a warm
welcome at his home. I apologized for the delay of my visitation, after having
a talk with Kuya Wilfredo, we asked him to allow us to roam around his
territory. We found it hard to find the way to the tribal chieftain’s house,
because honestly we really don’t know the right way. While finding our way
we encountered Kuya Wilfredo’s grandson Justin. Justin is a very naughty
boy. We asked him if he could show us the way to the chief’s house and he
granted our favor. Justin made us walk and walk for almost an hour; he even
made us walk through muddy rice fields. Then one of my fellow Scout
asked,”baka naman di na kami makauwi?”, and then he answered, “di ko
talaga kayo papauwiin”. Fear ran through my nerves, what if this kid is only
fooling us, what if he really doesn’t know where we are heading to. While

250
walking I asked a woman if she knows where is Chief Lorenzo Ulosan’s
house.
When we arrived at Chief Lorenzo’s house we caught him fixing his boat.
While having a talk with Chief, he showed us an unfinished water pump; he
said that the pump was never finished because of the salty water coming out
of it. He said that my project would make a big difference on their everyday
lives. Imagine, they need to climb up to the PALTUBIG everyday just to have
water for drinking, etc. after having a short talk with Chief, he showed us
some of their tribes musical instruments, it’s nice to know their tribe has
preserved their culture for a long time. Chief Ulosan’s grandson showed us a
shorter way to Kuya Wilfredo’s house. A felt a bit anger on Justin, imagine
he made us walk for almost an hour even though he knew that there
is a shorter way, but I couldn’t get angry on him, his only a little boy. On
our way we passed by a river. There, we sat and took our lunch. It’s fun to
watch the children having fun, swimming on the river, there were even
little girls washing their clothes on the river, and The sad part is that the
river was very dirty. After eating we gave the children some of our food.
We continued our walk to Kuya Wilfredo’s house. On the way, I gave
Justin water on a 1.5 container, then Justin asked,
“akin nalang ‘to te?”, I said yes, “siguro ate

251
April 1, 2011
mayaman kayo nho?”,I asked him why did he say so, “kasi ate binibigay
mo lang tong tubig sabay diba tong lalagyan mo, lalagyan diba to ng
sprite”,”di ahh coke yan sya”. At that moment I realized how important
water is for them. I realized that my project would be a great help to them.
My mom gave Justin a five peso coin, as a sign of our gratitude to him. I
gave Justin the soft drink I was keeping on my back pack. “ate kaw nalang
magdala nito, baka sabihin nila gingnakaw ko to sa inyo”. I felt pity on
that little boy. I can’t imagine how hard his life is. I brought Justin home.
When my father arrived we waved good bye to the Batac family. On our
way, we passed through some Tagbanua, they said they were heading to
the Barangay Hall to have their synchronized meeting. We offered them a
ride to the Hall. When we arrived there, Kapitan Tess was there, we left
the Tagbanua’s and waved good bye to the citizens of Malinao II. When
we arrived on Poblacion we made a stop into an old play ground, my
brothers and I used to play there when we were still little kids. My mom
said that, that park would be their troop’s project for the Magic Spot.
We’ve planned the things that we’ll do to improve the park. After having
the meeting we went straight to our homes.

It was almost 8 o’clock when I woke up. I rushed to fix myself. I texted some of
the Girl Scouts from SFJC, but only Bahamma and Shaira confirmed to
accompany me for today’s visitation. My mom texted the Girl Scouts from her
troop to join for today’s visitation. My dad called some of his friends to
borrow a vehicle for us, but all of them were busy. I went to Bahamas’ house
to pick her and Shaira up. When I arrived there Bahamma said that she
thought that we already went off with out them. Shaira, Baham and I,
recruited a tricycle towards the Municipal Hall. We waited there for a awhile.
While we were waiting, we looked at the map of Narra, there we saw the
different Barangay’s of Narra including Malinao II. My dad came, he said that
we could ride on the municipal vehicle, but it’s not supposed to bring us on
Malinao II, instead he’s only going to drop us on the high way, because the
vehicle is going to Barangay Aramaywan. While we were on the gasoline
station the Girl Scouts of Panacan arrived. When we arrived on Malinao, the
driver dropped us, we waited for a tricycle to take us on Purok Pagkakaisa.
When we arrived there we saw Justine with some of his friends, while they
were walking, one of his friend lose her balance and hit the ground, the girl
started to cry. Janine, one of the Girl Scout from Panacan, helped her to stand

up, the girl kept on crying and walked away with her older brother.
When we arrived at Kuya Wilfredo’s house we caught him talking with
Chief Ulosan. We asked for Kuya Wilfredo if he could allow us to teach
the children about the importance of water. Justine came and he was
together with his little cute friend named Ron-ron. When my mom and
the other Girl scouts arrived, we went to the house of Ma’am Deig, a
teacher of Panacan National High School. While we were on our way
we encountered a carabao. When we arrived on ma’am Deig’s house I
realized that even though she is professional her life is not different
from the other natives. After having a chat with Ma’am Deig, we
continued walking towards the river; there we will have our class. I
asked my mom if I could pick up Justine and some of his friends. When
we were near Justine, he said “hihiramin niyo nanaman ako?” I
chuckled and said yes. I asked Justine if he could make his friends to join
us, but everyone were very shy. One of the natives brought us to a little house,
inside the house, there were men making a small coffin. They said that a six
months old baby died because of diarrhea. I realized that maybe because they
were lack of clean drinking water is the reason why the baby

254
died, I hope my project would be finished sooner so they’ll
have clean water. My mom gave money to the family of the baby. After we
visited the baby, we continued our walk towards the river. It was almost 12
o’clock when we arrived there, it was already lunch time. We sat on the side
of the river, there we ate our lunch. While we were eating I saw a girl starring
at us, I called her and told her to take a seat. I gave Reslie, the little girl, and
Justine quail eggs. After I finished eating, I fed Justine and Reslie. Justine said
that he haven’t had breakfast yet and he only ate adobong papaya for dinner
last night. After the two kids finished eating, we taught them to write there
names, Reslie did well while Justine had some difficulties. After writing, I let
the two kids watch a video about the adventures of water boy. There were
much focused on watching, when the video ended I asked them what they saw
on the video, both of them were active in answering my questions. After
teaching them we sat and took a rest for a while, and then we started to walk
again. We sat under the Sampaloc tree and ate ice candy. When we finished
eating I took Justine home, then we said good bye to the Batac Family. Since
there were no visible tricycles on the Purok, we walked towards the High
Way. We were almost at the High Way when a tricycle came. When we
arrived in Poblacion we ate ice cream on one of the stores on the market. After
eating and having a chat with each other, we waved good bye to each other.
We arrived home very tired and exhausted, but I’m still thankful that this day.
