Aswang Festival

I reverted the deletion of this festival for reasons that this festival is being observed and recognized by the people and the government of Roxas City. Capizenios had this idea of celebrating this. Please see news releases:

Maybe you could comment [here]?--Jondel 15:30, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

The Diwal Festival, which started in 2005, was created in order to celebrate the resurgence of diwal (angel wing clam) after several years near extinction. However, this festival should no longer be included among the festivals of Roxas City, considering that after reckless harvesting, the supply of diwal is again low. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Macki3112 (talk • contribs).

Capiznon and Illonggo

I am editing this in Roxas City now. A lot of Capiznons would like to believe the language is separate.It is not . Capiznon is nothing more than a dialect of Illonggo.--Jondel 08:50, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Is Hiligaynon and Ilongo the same? - Felix

Hiligaynon, Ilongo and Karayg-a may be separate but mutually intelligible dialects.--Jondel (talk) 00:27, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
