Due to the long line of comments regarding the Tribal Council Request for donations, I would like to add this to clarify some issues. Although this information was not received through official channels, I believe them to be accurate. I will update this information as we hear back from the Tribal Council officials.
The Tribal Council is a separate entity from the Barangay Council although it is sanctioned and supported by the Barangay. This is evident by the presence of several barangay members who are also serving in the Tribal Council. Sagunto is a small town, and I believe that not many projects get past the Barangay. So there is no disrespect of the Captain here, it is simply a separate matter from the usual Barangay issues. It is prudent to have a degree of separation between the various organizations. Let's not get bogged down with whose ego was not smoothed over first. Especially since our honorable Capitan has not voiced any objections about this project but rather seems to be supportive of it as you can see in the photographs of the group.
This is a noble goal for the tribe. I noted when I was present during the Rizal Day festivities that the tribal dances were presented by a very talented group from another barangay. This thought, that "why is there not an organization in Sagunto presenting a tribal performance?", did cross my mind then. I am sure there are many talented Bagos in Sagunto who could have done as well if not better. I am glad that the Tribal Council has taken it upon themselves to correct this.
Here are some preliminary figures, to give everyone an idea how much is needed. The Bago Tribal Council requests aid in procuring the following items:
Costumes for the dancers
Gangsa - is the Bago gong (estimate cost for 12-piece set = 70,000 pesos)
Tambor - drum made of deer skin (estimate cost, 3,000 pesos)
The cost for a 6-piece gong set is estimated at 35,000 pesos. The council hopes for a 12-piece set. There are no estimates yet for the costumes
and tambor. I'm sure they can't be cheap. If you have some information about these costs please share your information here. (Those named above, please confirm your pledge. If it's a mistake, let me know and I will remove it from the list)If you'd like to make a pledge, leave a comment and I will update the list.
Donations may be sent directly to the Bago Tribal Council Treasurer, Mr. Daniel Pascua, Sagunto, Sison, Pangasinan.
We thank you all for your help, and as one of our youngest members here on the blog said, "every little bit counts". So let's all pull together and help our tribe, let's show our younger generations what a proud and noble people we are.

Tribal Council Donations
Due to the long line of comments regarding the Tribal Council Request for donations, I would like to add this to clarify some issues. Although this information was not received through official channels, I believe them to be accurate. I will update this information as we hear back from the Tribal Council officials.

Thanks Nette for the clarification. I know some people are not aware (like me) that there's a Tribal Council. Like I said, I've learned a lot since the inception of this virtual abung. That link on the Bago by Mr. Buaquen really helps explain the Bago situation.
Imbag a ta adda dagitoy elders tayo idta nga mangisuro kada tayo iti cultura nga dati tapno saan tayo nga maliplipatan no addino ti nagapuanan. It is our culture and heritage, we have to be proud of it, treasure it and protect it. Isunga uray no saga-basit ti tulung nga maited, no pagtitinulungan tayo amin nalaka nga aramiden no anyaman nga proyecto ti kailangan.

I'll update u later if the meeting goes well.

Hehe, naimbag ta adda nga dagos sungbat from you kimat. of course, the tribal council has long planned for this solicitation and search for the seller of gongs(months ago, I heard). Ask uncle henry for it's him and his team who've been suggesting to SUKA to finance this, ti nanggeg ko. No ngay adda laeng nalaklaka nga source, ta sika ket addan sa ammom dita nga paggappuan ti quality instruments. salamat ta i suggest min to dayta no agsaludsod da manen.Diay Baguio nga agpayso aya.
I remember attending a seminar for our traditional instruments in UP-Diliman before. It's where I saw lots of Ilocano and Igorot/Bago instruments that our local barrio don't use or keep anymore. Mayat koma no dagiti apong tayo dita (hello APO lakay, ayan mo ngayen?) , agurnong da ti instrumento nga kannawidan nga inususar idi, tapno no agawid dagitoy balikbayans, adda ipakita da ken annak da. Ayanna ngay dagidiay nadumaduma nga kawayan nga pinarpar nga pagtokar idi ususaren ti lallakay? Ayna apo, agurnong tayo tapno adda met ipasa tayo nga tawid kadagiti appo ken annak tayo.

Hello Admin, we need to correct the info on pledges. But wait till I inform the tribal council about the CORRECTION THE PLEDGER WANTS TO MAKE. Good you've said earlier "CONFIRM these info" calling the attenton of the pledgers. Well as you've read in the lower thread, Mr Henry Palit-Ang promised the amount for the purchase of "one set of gongs -6pcs" which now would amount to 35,000 pesos. Let us tell the council that the 20,000 pesos THEY REMEMBER promised them is wrong (now who really forgot what?) and actually a lot higher. Kitaen yo man apo, dakdakkel gayam dyay naipromise da.(Good for them...hehe, bad for us being tagged as printing the wrong info.)
Now messengers and donors, saan kay koma mauma apo nga tumulong uray ado nga hassles na daytoy.
Next time, ilista tayo apo dagidiay promises da, nakasurat wenno nakatape tapno ammo tayo ti pangibasbasaran ti information nga ireport ditoy. Salamat apo.

I left a message at Uncle Henry's home phone last night so I can clarify exactly what the pledge is/was/should be before changing anything. I'll let you know when I've hear back from Don Palit-Ang, hehehe...
Let's keep light and breezy, people. These are just minor snags. Life is good and so are YOU!
