Sigh. I've already ranted in Arabesque's blog when she posted a similar photo, so I won't here. May God keep them safe. And I hope that Butuan's traffic isn't as bad as Manila's!
----By the 11th century, Butuan was the center of trade and commerce in the Philippines.--The name "Butuan" is believed to have originated from the sour fruit "Batuan" ---Other etymology sources say that it comes from a certain "Datu Buntuan", a chieftain who once ruled over Butuan. ---Butuan River is the widest, deepest and longest navigable river in Mindanao. ---The boom of the logging industry during the 1950s up the middle of 1970s has made Butuan the "Timber City of the South".

---Mindanao is the second largest and easternmost island in the Philippines. ---most of the people in the northern and eastern part of the island (Mindanao) practiced native religions before they were converted to Christianity. ---The native Maguindanaon and other native Muslim/non-Muslim groups of Mindanao have a fascinating culture that revolves around kulintang music, a specific type of gong music, found among both Muslim and non-Muslim groups of the Southern Philippines.
