Preparation for the celebration of the 87th founding anniversary of Misamis Oriental gained headway as the provincial government started the groundwork of the “Miss Kuyamis Festival” here.
Provincial Governor Yevgeny Emano said Wednesday that the Kuyamis Festival is one of the highlights of the province’s annual founding anniversary.
Emano said that the Kuyamis Festival focuses on the peculiar beauty and history of Misamis Oriental where the various provincial towns showcase traditional products that form part of the province economic and social life.
During the occasion, the provincial municipalities would display their products in a booth made of indigenous materials around the sprawling provincial capitol ground, Emano said.
The governor said that the preparation for the province’s 87th annual anniversary was formally announced following the launching and endorsement of the candidates for the coveted “Miss 2017 Kuyamis Crown” last Monday.
Emano said that the selection of the “Miss Kuyamis 2017” highlights the founding anniversary celebration as an integral part of the vigorous campaign in the development of the province’s tourism industry. (PNA)
