SNAPS| Breaking the Cycle: Men as Allies

CSU Carig Campus officially launched the National 18-Day Campaign Against Violence Against Women and Children (VAWC) on November 24, 2025, through a kickoff program at the Red Eagle Gymnasium. With the theme “United for a VAW-free Philippines: Stop VAW, Look Behind Silence and Listen with Compassion,” the event highlighted awareness, solidarity, and collective action to end all forms of violence.

Participant Ryza Bulda emphasized that the campaign is not only about women speaking up. She noted that ending VAWC requires everyone’s involvement. “Unless men are active allies, we will never end violence against women and girls,” she said, emphasizing that every individual has a role in stopping VAWC.

| Kumusta ang sembreak mo, Carigan?

Nabawi mo ba ang sleepless nights mo? Nakagala ka ba nang bongga with friends?

Alinman, salamin lahat ng iyan ng mga paghihirap mo. Ang treat sa sarili ay sukli ng puspusang kayod mo sa nakaraang semester at ang patuloy na pagsusumikap mo ay repleksyon ng dedikasyon mo sa sarili at sa kursong pinili mo. At sana’y naging tunay na fulfilling ang sembreak mo.

Tatandaan, hindi lamang ang nagtapos na dalawang linggo ang maaaring maging break; sa tuwing pakiramdam mo’y kailangan mong magpahinga, huwag mag-atubili. Enerhiya at lakas ang dapat na baon natin sa byaheng ito.

At bukod sa sembreak, may isang nararapat na kumustahin.
Ikaw, kumusta ka?

| Daan Tungo sa Bagong Simula

“Dong, saan ka pupunta?”
“Sa paaralan po.”
“Ngayon? Kararaan lamang ng bagyo kaya maputik pa ang daan, baka lumubog sa putik ‘yang mga paa mo. Isa pa, hindi ba’t nabasa ang ilan mong gamit?”

Ngumiti lamang akong payapa ngunit matatag. Ang mga salita ni tiyo ay tila mga alon na sumasalpok sa batong matagal nang hinasa ng unos—naririnig ngunit ‘di na nagpapatinag.

Umakyat ako sa traysikel ni Mang Boy, marahang sinasalo ng malamig na hangin ang bawat hakbang. Sa pagdampi ng simoy, ramdam ko ang bakas ng nagdaang unos—ang halimuyak ng basang lupa, ang mga dahong nakayuko, at ang langit na unti-unting nagliliwanag. Bawat pag-uga ng aking katawan sa ibabaw ng traysikel ay ramdam ko ang paghihingalo ng mga gulong na pilit umuusad sa gitna ng putik. Diretso ang tingin ko sa kalsadang minsang nilusob ng tubig. Ang dating parang ilog ngayo’y daan na ulit patungo sa pangarap.

Ramdam kong bumilis ang pag-arangkada ni Mang Boy, kaya’t lalong dumiin ang aking kapit sa malamig na bakal. Ang bubong ng traysikel ay parang bangkang tinangay ng liwanag, naglalayag sa dagat ng panibagong umaga, at ako ang kapitan nitong munting paglalakbay—tangan ang pangarap na kailanma’y hindi maanod ng ulan.

Tatlong araw akong nakakulong sa aming tahanan, tila isang munting kulungang napalilibutan ng tubig, habang pinagmamasdan ko ang lupang unti-unting nagiging ilog. Sa mga araw na iyon, ang tanging hiling ko lamang ay makatapak muli sa lupa.

Ngayong muling mararamdaman ng aking talampakan ang tibok ng kalupaan, tila nabuhay ang pag-asang minsang tinangkang lunurin ni Uwan. Sapagkat hindi kailanman kayang lunurin ng anumang bagyo ang pag-asang marunong lumangoy.

NEWS | Tuguegarao City offers free point-to-point ride across Buntun Bridge

The Local Government Unit (LGU) of Tuguegarao City has launched a free point-to-point ride service for commuters crossing Buntun Bridge, November 11.

The service is open to everyone, with priority given to senior citizens, Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), pregnant women, children, and healthcare workers.

Pick-up and drop-off points are located at Philippine National Police (PNP) checkpoint Buntun and PNP checkpoint Solana-Enrile.

According to City Mayor Maila Ting-Que, the program was implemented to ensure public safety and convenience for those traveling across the Buntun Bridge.

This is following the temporary closure of the bridge as ordered by the Department of Public Works and Highways Region II in consideration to the present condition of the infrastructure as well as public safety.

"We saw the need, and we acted right away, it’s safer for everyone than walking across the bridge. Tuloy-tuloy po ang serbisyong mas nakikita, mas nadarama, at mas maaasahan," Mayor Ting-Que said in a Facebook post.

The free ride program aims to provide safer and more accessible transportation for individuals, reducing risks associated with walking across the bridge.

The bridge will remain closed until safety assessments confirm that it is safe again for passage.
