EAMIGAS Publication

Eamigas Publication is Aklan State University - Banga Campus' official student Publication since 1955 💚💛 Eamigas, now on ISSUU for the very first time.

'Eamigas' is an Aklanon term which means “grains or seeds”. To the farmers, “eamigas” are even more valuable than gold. Without them, nothing of value can even be produced to feed a growing population. Just like the grains, the publication grows and is serving Aklan State University-Main Campus for more than 66 years. The Eamigas started its shift to digitalization in 2019 as our goal is to take f

urther advantage of the digitally fueled era. Now, it is the most followed account in the university with more than 18,000 followers across our social media platforms including a monthly post reached and engagements up to 250,000. The publication maintains its online web presence, published news, articles, and graphic content weekly, to update its academic community like never before. It has been recognized and produced award-winning journalists in the Region over the past decades. The EAMIGAS also won awards in the prestigious College Press Conference organized by the Philippine Information Agency – VI annually. We even pushed our growing capabilities to redefine our generation. We've taken a huge leap to introduce a new breakthrough in the publication taking further our studentry to a more immersive and dynamic platform — telling them stories through their gadgets with the most powerful digital publishing tool. Amidst a media environment besets with constant state of flux and constraints, the Eamigas is committed to remain the beacon of news and information, delivering responsible journalism to ASUians and the community. In the age of proliferation of information, its new mission is to let today's generation be fully informed, updated, and involved.

𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘: CANDLES AND SHADOWS: In Remembrance of the Forgotten

When my grandfather passed, I remember thinking the place was cramped.

The place— the cemetery— was full of markers carved out of slabs of marble and stone. Ones that are embedded into long enclosures of cement, others that lay at your feet when you push against a crowd when a burial is underway. I remember I was six, too young to know any better, running through the narrow paths of the graveyard, and tripping over one of those slabs of hard material. I didn't recognize it right away; it lay on the ground face up, but covered with a sheet of grime and soil. Childhood intrigue prompted me to scrape it off with a broken piece of plywood I had found lying around, and when I'd cleared enough space, I saw it. That line: “In remembrance of…”

I didn't recognize it right away, but once I did, I remember feeling my stomach drop. It was a tombstone. I had tripped over a tombstone that lay forlornly in a dark corner of the cemetery, buried beneath grime and dirt thick enough to go unnoticed by a child driven by juvenile curiosity.

I was only six when I first realized that a graveyard holds two kinds of tombstones: tombstones that are marked by love, like the one we buried my grandfather with; and ones that hid in the shadows, beneath another layer of soil, concealed by grass that has grown beyond control.

To be loved is to be remembered– or so they say. And in this season of remembrance, while cemeteries glow with the warmth of candlelight and the hearts of those who come to visit, not every tomb is touched by light. There are some that remain in the shadows, waiting for a love that time has already forgotten.

Our tradition as Filipinos welcomes the first two days of November with a somber tribute to those who have passed on. Across the country, families gather in cemeteries, bringing flowers, candles, and the familiar comfort of food and prayer. It is a celebration of memory more than mourning; a reunion of the living and the departed. For a place that is known to hold so much grief, the beginning of this month witnesses cemeteries and graves turn into a ground of celebration for the same love they keep, even if it's just for a day in a year.

But among these graves adorned by the remembrance of loved ones, there are those left to wait in silence. Bare and unkempt, whose only adornments are weeds that grow in the spaces where marble and soil meet. They are left to collect the grime of time, lying at the mercy of passing feet, perhaps begging for a share of that fond remembrance.

These resting places may now be abandoned in the dark, but they once held with them the same love they now only witness. Perhaps, all those years ago, they too were once someone's friend, someone's mother, someone's child; someone who was once loved, held, remembered. They used to be someone. And to be someone meant to matter. They once mattered.

Why should it be any different now?

Every year, thousands of graves remain untouched, their names fading under layers of dust and time— like the one I encountered as a child. In remembering the dead, we must honor not only those we love but also those who once walked the same earth and now wait quietly to be remembered again. For when one passes, death takes everything but one thing: the memory of who they were and of what once was.

After all, the warmth of candlelight is made more precious by the shadows of those graves that were left behind— proof that remembrance carries weight because we forget.

To be loved is to be remembered. And these souls deserve to be loved just as much as those whose names are whispered in prayer and whose graves are bathed in light, because remembrance, in the end, is what keeps us alive long after we’re gone.

“The problem in today’s generation [is] we often judge people by their gender. As a man, I believe we must respect everyone with equality because we are born in this world to live an equal life—to have human rights. And as a candidate of Mr. Aklan State University, I have a platform in leadership, and with [it], I want to promote gender awareness to my fellow students. We must respect everyone equally, [without] bias to [any] gender because we are here in this world with a purpose.“

“Thank you for that question. Justice begins the moment we choose power over chaos. If our leaders are honest and our laws are right, then we are building a nation where everybody can speak up and get treated right. Because I always believe that our institution should not just focus [on our] laws, but also [on] communities and people experiencing vulnerabilities. [After all], justice is not just about the personality or the punishment that we experience, but it's all about the world and the community that we create for the future generations to come. Thank you.”
