To All Miag-aowanons,

Yes I really miss our hometown. Everytime I come home there are people that I do not recognize anymore since the population seems to just explode. I hope that in the near future we can sit down together to help some of our disadvantage brothers and sisters to better there lives in our town. This means providing affordable medical services to our people and making them aware of disease prevention.

I studied in UPV Miag-ao from 1993-1997. Since then, I never had the chance to visit this place again (because I am originally from Manila).

Good memories of Miagao came flooding through my mind when I saw this website, especially the photo of the well-maintained old house. This is a boarding house where many UPV students stay. Some of my friends have stayed here. I forgot the name of the owner, but he is really a nice man.

I hope that you can also feature some photos of UPV Miag-ao. Our campus is one of the most beautiful campus of UP system and I am very proud of this place.

Bob, my cousin Evangelina “Baby” Nielo Intal just retired as Supervisor of Miagao Elementary Schools, with her office across the street from Monton’s house. she lives approximately 3 blocks away from there. next time you and Carol are in Miagao, tell the residents at Ubos Ilawod that you are a friend of “Boy” Monreal and ask for the direction to Baby Intal’s house. i’m sure she will be happy to give you a tour, and show you some of the big houses of Miagao’s OFW. Regards.

Jim, Thanks for your kind comments. Yes, we hope to spend more time in Miagao. There’s so much to explore and it’s pretty close now that we’re in Tigbauan. Bob

bob and carol, thanks for your kind and candid description of my hometown. i remember well that big old house you mentioned above. my late friend “Kano” Monton grew-up in that house.

maybe you can post some pictures of the University of the Philippines (UPV), Miagao, Iloilo campus.
