Isulan, the capital of Sultan Kudarat, is where I was born and studied high school.
My family is spending Christmas at our home here. On the night of December 27, 2007, a cousin invited me for a (long) walk at the town center.
My family is spending Christmas at our home here. On the night of December 27, 2007, a cousin invited me for a (long) walk at the town center.
7: 41 p.m. I’m standing beside the road going to the public market.
The statue of Sultan Kudarat atop the arcs faces Tacurong City, 11 km away. Behind is the road to Cotabato City.
7: 52 p.m. It’s a dry night for a balut vendor
7:54 p.m. The public market has won awards for cleanliness
8:02 p.m. I watched Ekis, an R18 film, in this movie house when I was 13.
It has been closed for a few years
8:14 p.m. Inside this building, teenage boys addicted to on-line games burn the night
8:36 p.m. In front the town hall
8:59 p.m. Christmas lights at the plaza
9:14 p.m. The seat of local government 
9:46 p.m. An amputee hails a tricycle home
9:47 p.m. Instead of projecting fun, beer shacks like this one make the highway look desolate
On our way back homeThe statue agitates the obsessive-compulsive in me. It is too large in proportion to the size of the roundball.
The original sculpture was replaced because Sultan Kudarat was always mistaken for Lapu-Lapu.
