๐—Ÿ๐—”๐—ง๐—›๐—”๐—Ÿ๐—”๐—œ๐—ก | Sa Pista ng Arakyo, ang Pananampalataya ay Sumasayaw

Sa unang hampas ng tambol at unang sabit ng saya, nagigising ang bayan ng Peรฑaranda, Nueva Ecija sa ritmo ng Arakyo. Ang mga tunog ng tadyak, halakhakan, at awitin ay umaalingawngaw sa bawat kanto; sa plaza, makikita ang mga batang nagtatakbuhan, ang matatandang nakaupo sa gilid, at ang mga ina na hawak ang kanilang mga anakโ€”sinasayaw, ayon sa nakagisnang paniniwala na โ€œiwas sakit.โ€

โ€œMasaya. Inaabangan โ€˜yon kasi mayroon ding nakamulatan na dito sa Peรฑaranda na kapag sumasayaw โ€˜yong Arakyo, sumasayaw din yung mga tao [para] iwas sakit,โ€ ani Clarissa โ€œAyieโ€ Macalindong, 50, isang residente.

Ang Arakyo (o Araquio) ay higit pa sa isang palabas. Isa itong sining na nakaugat sa pananampalataya. Isang pagsasadula ng paghahanap nina Reyna Helena at Constantino sa Banal na Krus, na isinasabuhay taon-taon ng mga mamamayan bawat Mayo. Dito, ang entablado ay ang kalye mismo, ang bawat kilos ay dasal, at bawat kanta ay alay.

๐—ฆ๐—ถ๐—บ๐˜‚๐—น๐—ฎ ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—”๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ฆ๐—ฎ๐˜†๐—ฎ๐˜„

Walang tiyak na tala kung kailan nagsimula ang Arakyo, ngunit para sa mga taga-Peรฑaranda, bahagi na ito ng kanilang pagkatao.

โ€œโ€™Di ko alam kung kailan nag-umpisa, nakamulatan ko na โ€˜yan eh,โ€ ani Ayie. โ€œLahat ng [barangay sa Peรฑaranda] mayroonโ€”sa Sto. Tomas, Las Piรฑas, Sinasajan, San Josef, saka Callos.โ€

Para kay Ayie, malinaw ang kahalagahan ng Arakyo bilang bahagi ng tatak ng Peรฑaranda. Nakikita niya itong simbolo ng tradisyon na pinahahalagahan ng komunidadโ€”hindi lamang nagbibigay saya kundi nagdudulot din ng pagkakaisa.

Kuwento niya, โ€œMarami ang dumadayo para manood ng Arakyo sa Peรฑaranda upang masaksihan ang makulay at makasaysayang palabas na ito.โ€

Ang Arakyo ay lokal na bersyon ng moro-moro o comedia, isang teatrong panrelihiyon na naglalarawan ng labanan ng mga Moro at Kristiyano, at ng tagumpay ng pananampalataya sa dulo ng paglalakbay.

Sa paglipas ng mga dekada, naging simbolo ito ng pagkakaisa ng mga taga-Peรฑaranda; isang pamana ng kuwento, paniniwala, at pananalig na patuloy nilang pinangangalagaan.

๐—•๐—ฎ๐˜†๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—˜๐—ป๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐—ผ

Tuwing panahon ng Arakyo, nagbabago ang takbo ng Peรฑaranda. Sa gabi, maririnig ang ensayo mula sa malalayong bahay. Ang mga tinig ng mga batang umaawit, ang matitigas na yabag ng sayaw sa lupa, at ang tawanan ng mga lumalahok.

Kuwento ni Isidro โ€œCedringโ€ Cervantes, 67, isa sa mga tagapagturo ng Arakyo: โ€œKami โ€˜pag nag-eensayo, unang-una kaming maghahanap ng mga taoโ€”mga bata. Kapag kumpleto na kami, mag-eensayo na kami. Parang mag-uumpisa tayo ng Grade 1 hanggang makarating ka na sa college na, kaya niyo na. Ibig sabihin matagal kami nag-eensayo nun.โ€

Dagdag pa niya, ang pagsasanay sa Arakyo ay matagal at masinsin. Madalas umaabot ng linggo o buwan bago maituro ang lahat ng galaw sa mga kalahok. Hindi lamang pisikal ang hamon; kailangan din ng tiyaga at pasensya sa pagtuturo, lalo na sa mga komplikadong galaw at tradisyon na kailangang ipasa sa mga susunod na henerasyon.
Para naman kay Maria Luisa โ€œJanetโ€ Pinacate, 58, na dating performer, walang kapantay ang saya sa mismong palabas.

โ€œParang artista. Madaming nanonood, maraming nagsasabit, maraming humihiling lalo na sa sayaw. Nadadala talaga ako sa kwento. Kapag nadala ka sa kwento, gumaganda na rin โ€˜yung performance mo,โ€ aniya.

Sa bawat eksena, pinagsasanib ng mga taga-Peรฑaranda ang sining at pananampalataya. Ang kilos ng katawan ay nagiging panalangin, at ang sigaw ng laban ay nagiging awit ng pananalig.

๐—ฆ๐—ฎ ๐—ฆ๐˜‚๐˜€๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ผ๐—ฑ ๐—ป๐—ฎ ๐—ž๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฎ

Tulad ng maraming tradisyon, hindi ligtas ang Arakyo sa mga hamon ng makabagong panahon. Ayon kay Ayie, hindi na kasing husay ang kalidad ng mga sumasayaw dahil wala nang masusing audition at kadalasan ay basta-basta na lamang kumukuha ng kalahok.

Ngunit para naman kay Cedring, maselan pa rin ang pagpili ng mga sasali. โ€œHindi kami basta-basta kumukuha. Tatanungin muna namin, โ€˜Gusto mo ba talaga? Bukal ba โ€˜yan sa kalooban mo?โ€™ Kasi ang gusto namin, โ€˜yung talagang may panata. Hindi lang sumasali, kundi nakikiisa.โ€

Marami pa rin umanong kabataang naaakit sa Arakyo. Ayon kay Cedring, habang tumatagal ang kanilang pag-eensayo, nagiging mas pursigido at mas masigla sila sa pag-aaral ng mga galaw at awit.

Para sa mga bata, hindi lamang ito pagtatanghal, dala rin nito ang paniniwala sa proteksyon at biyayang hatid ng tradisyon. Isa rin sa mga paniniwalang nakakapit kay Cedring ang kaligtasan laban sa malulubhang karamdaman mula nang maging bahagi at tagapagturo siya ng Arakyo.

Patuloy na humahanga ang maraming kabataan sa Arakyo. Nakikita ang sigla at kuryosidad ng mga ito, na nagtutulak sa kanila na matutunan at maranasan ang tradisyon kahit pa may prosesong mabigat ang paglahok dito.

๐—œ๐˜€๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—•๐˜‚๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜† ๐—ป๐—ฎ ๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฎ

Sa Peรฑaranda, ang Arakyo ay higit pa sa pistaโ€”isa itong taon-taong panunumpa ng pagkakaisa. โ€œMaganda,โ€ sagot ni Cedring nang tanungin kung ano ang epekto nito sa komunidad. โ€œTradisyon na ng mga tao. Panata na ng matatanda.โ€

Sa kabila ng paglipas at pagbabago ng panahon, nananatiling buo at matatag ang diwa ng Arakyo. Hindi nagbago ang lenggwahe, ang tono ng awit, at ang sigla ng sayaw na bumabalot sa bawat kilos at eksena.

Para kay Janet, nananatiling orihinal ang anyo ng tradisyon, at ang bawat detalye nito ay patuloy na nagpapakita ng natatanging karakter at pananalig ng bayan. Mahalaga para sa kaniya na manatiling buhay ang Arakyo, isang tradisyong minana mula sa kabataan, at isang palabas na hinahanap-hanap ng mga bisita.

Ang Arakyo ay hindi lamang relihiyosong tradisyon, kundi isang salamin ng bayan; ang pagkakaisa ng mga tao sa iisang paniniwala. Dito, ang kasaysayan ay hindi binabasa, kundi isinasayaw; ang pananampalataya ay hindi lang dinadasal, kundi ipinapakita.

Ito ay higit pa sa ritwal o dula, ito ay isang buhay na panata. โ€œIsa โ€˜yun sa tatak ng Peรฑaranda,โ€ sabi ni Ayie. โ€œKapag sinabing Arakyo, Peรฑaranda na agad maiisip ng mga tao.โ€

Mula sa tambol ng ensayo hanggang sa sigaw ng tagumpay, ang Arakyo ay nananatiling buhayโ€”isang tulay sa pagitan ng nakaraan at kasalukuyan, at isang panata ng bayan na patuloy na sumasayaw para sa pananampalataya. Sa bawat taon, sa bawat sayaw, muling nabubuhay si Reyna Helena, si Constantino, at ang pananalig ng isang bayan.

Habang nagtatapos ang palabas at unti-unting tumatahimik ang gabi, patuloy na naglalagablab sa puso ng mga taga-Peรฑaranda ang ritmong minana, tatak ng mayamang kultura na ipinagmamalaki at ipinapasa sa bawat henerasyon. Higit pa sa tradisyon, ito ay buhay na pamana, sining na dasal, at pananampalatayang patuloy na gumagalaw at humuhubog sa diwa ng Peรฑaranda.

At kapag muling dumating ang buwan ng Mayo, panibagong yugto na naman ang bubukasโ€”mga bagong mandirigma, mga bagong tinig, ngunit gamit ang iisang kwentong kailanman ay hindi mawawala. I via CASSANDRA NICOLE SALASINA, CLSU Collegian

Arsenio Asuncion, 75, had already planted seedlings for his three-hectare ricefields across the borders of Guimba, Nueva Ecija and Victoria, Tarlac 14 days before the announcement that 11 towns across Nueva Ecija and Tarlac cannot be irrigated until March 1, 2026 by the National Irrigation Administration - Upper Pampanga River Integrated Irrigation Systems (NIA-UPRIIS).

โ€œHindi na namin itutuloy [ang pagsasaka] kasi syempre malaking gastos. Sabi nila, patubigan mo muna eh kako โ€˜Ay โ€˜wag na! Doble doble gastos naman โ€˜yan!โ€™โ€ said Asuncion, foreseeing further losses if he would continue this cropping season.

Having already spent P12,000 loaned money on seedlings, he said the setback felt like another lost gamble after last seasonโ€™s harvest sold for just P10-13 per kilo.

Division V Manager Engr. Roberto Matias said quarrying activities that began in 2022 within the one-kilometer radius of the Talavera Siphon, combined with repeated cyclones, exposed and damaged the underground structure, pushing the planned Dec. 1, 2025 irrigation schedule to March 2026.

In October 2024, Severe Tropical Storm Kristine exposed about 150 meters of the siphon, and by January 2025, Division V was awaiting repair funds, but no allocation had arrived by July as Typhoon Emong and Tropical Depression Dante further worsened the damage.

โ€œ[...] dati 3โ€“4 meters kalalim โ€˜yon [siphon barrel] mula sa riverbed [dahil] continuous po โ€˜yong quarrying niya lumitaw po โ€˜yon [...] Dahil malalakas po โ€˜yong ulan [at] mga bagyo [...] nagkaroon po ng butas o nag-give in po โ€˜yong ilalim po ng barrel,โ€ Matias said. โ€œKasing laki po ng [butas] na โ€˜yon [ang] two-bedroom na bahay.โ€

Based on the data retrieved from Philippine Rice Information System, towns of Anao, Ramos, and Victoria yielded more than 53,000 tons for the first semester of 2025 (Sept. 16, 2024โ€“March 15, 2025); while Guimba, Talugtug, Nampicuan, Cuyapo, Rizal, Llanera, San Jose, and Muรฑoz recorded a combined yield exceeding 403,000 tons during the same period.

The damaged Talavera Siphon leaves these towns without irrigation water for the first semester of 2026 (Sept. 16, 2025โ€“March 15, 2026), potentially cutting harvests by up to 31% in Nueva Ecija and 18% in Tarlac.

In a statement dated Nov. 29, NIA-UPRIIS said the quarrying activities that damaged the Talavera Siphon operate illegally and lack the required permits from the Nueva Ecija provincial government.

โ€œMula pa noong mga nakaraang buwan, may tuloy-tuloy na joint inspections at coordination meetings ang NIA-UPRIIS, (DENR) [Department of Environment and Natural Resources], LGU Llanera, at Provincial Government upang tugunan ang insidenteng ito. Isang shared responsibility [ito] ng lahat ng ahensiyang nabanggit,โ€ the statement further reads.

Asuncion said that if there was an earlier announcement on the postponed water supply, he would have refrained from buying seedlings, which he planted last Nov. 12 and would have been set for transplanting this Dec. 7.

Matias, however, said that while repairs began in late August in an effort to meet the Dec. 1 irrigation schedule, Tropical Depression Mirasol and Super Typhoon Nando in September and Super Typhoon Uwan in early November stalled the work and worsened the damage.

โ€œโ€˜Yong Typhoon Uwan noong November 9 [ay may] malaking epekto sa integrity ng ating siphon barrel [...] Noong November 20 lang po lumitaw โ€˜yong itsura ng ating siphon barrel [dahil mataas ang tubig sa Talavera River],โ€ Matias explained, noting NIAโ€™s verdict that if the damaged siphon remains unfixed and used to supply water, the condition may worsen and the three-month repair may extend to three years.

Some farmers from Victoria, Tarlac still pushed through for the cropping season. As Asuncion said, these are the farmers who either have money for crude-oil pumping or have already lost enough money during the seeding process.

Others like Ambo Aritcheta, 63, who owns a one-hectare farm surrendered his ricefield this cropping season to another farmer who can shoulder pumping costs.

โ€œAkala ko dadaloy ang tubig kaya nagpunla ako. Kaya noโ€™ng nalaman ko na wala pala, hinayaan ko naโ€ฆ wala naman ako panggastos ng krudo,โ€ Aritcheta said.

Asuncion stressed that no government subsidy for pumping has reached them yet, saying it would have prompted him to continue along with farmers from neighboring fields.

He said that he might also try to sell his seedlings for transplanting but has no idea yet how prices will play out.

When asked how he plans to repay the loan and fund the next cropping, the farmer said: โ€œHindi ko masabi. Kung hindi na ako papahiramin ulit, hahanap ako ng iba [na mapaguutangan].โ€ | via VINCE JC MACADANGDANG & MARCO BACNIS, CLSU Collegian

๐—”๐——๐—ฉ๐—œ๐—ฆ๐—ข๐—ฅ๐—ฌ | โ€˜Flexi-Fridaysโ€™ to be implemented for undergrad students, univ personnel this 2nd Sem

Asynchronous classes for undergraduate students, administrative works for most university personnel.

This will be the new setup every Friday for the 2nd Semester of the Academic Year 2025-2026 of Central Luzon State University (CLSU) in adherence to Memorandum No. 2025-09-25 (05), which introduces the new Flexible-Friday (Flexi-Fridays) Working Arrangement (FWA).

In the โ€˜Flexi-Fridayโ€™ arrangement, Fridays are intended for CLSU Personnelโ€™s activities such as meetings, seminars, workshops, publication writing, and other extra-curricular activities and events in the aim to attain โ€˜work-life balance and to optimize institutional performance,โ€™ as per its rationale.

Personnel in the memoโ€™s context span from faculties, non-teaching staff, and contract of service employees with the exemption of front line workforces like those in health, security, and emergency services.

Moreover, in its stipulated academic guidelines, face-to-face laboratory and lecture classes shall be observed from Monday to Thursday, while Friday schedules are to be administered online depending on the faculty-student discretion whether in asynchronous or synchronous mode.

University Supreme Student Council Chairperson (USSC) and Student Regent Aljone Viterbo stated that most laboratory classes are prioritized to be scheduled face-to-face to not compromise the practical learning of the students.

โ€œIf ever need ng students ng face-to-face class ay pwede pa rin sila mag-request sa professor ng face-to-face lecture, as long as approved ng buong klase na mag face-to-face lecture yung magiging set up nila,โ€ she further stated when asked about the flexibility of the setup.

Furthermore, regular work setups are to be observed for working personnel from Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. in the morning and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the afternoon. Meanwhile, Saturdays are allotted for NSTP classes in adaptation to the Civil Service Commission (CSC) Memorandum Circular No. 1, 2025 approved FWA, and its combination to the setup of the university. | via JUSTINE ACE SANDOVAL, CLSU Collegian

ADDENDUM: Schools under the CLSU Laboratory for Teaching and Learning, namely the University Science High School and Agricultural Science and Technology School, will also adhere to the Flexi-Friday setup.

๐—ก๐—˜๐—ช๐—ฆ | 16 from 90 CLSU takers pass November CELE

Central Luzon State University (CLSU) registered 16 newly licensed civil engineers following the results of November 2025 Civil Engineering Licensure Examination (CELE), released by the Professional Regulation Commision (PRC), Nov. 29.

According to the PRC, CLSU recorded an overall passing rate of 17.78% from its 90 civil engineering program graduates who undertook the exam last Nov. 22-23.

The university's 90 takers consisted of 20 first-timers, with 4 passers, and 70 repeaters, with 12 passers. These numbers gave 20.00% and 17.14% passing rate for first-timers and repeaters, respectively.

The results also marked a dip in the universityโ€™s previous CELE performances, which saw higher passing rates of 41.73% last April 2024, 35.65% last November-December 2024, and 21.74% last April 2025.

Moreover, the national passing rate for this year's CELE was 30.39% or 4,268 from 14,043 takers successfully passing the exam. | via KARL ROY TORALBA, CLSU Collegian
