firecracker, not fireworks, blast off fingers as held by the hand. More inclined to believe to save money. Prosperity through austerity.
Prosperity through austerity. Think it was Marcos who said this when he enforced the fireworks ban. At that time, containers, basins, milk cans, etc were made of steel instead of plastics. To create noise, vehicles tied milk cans and dragged around the city. Basins, etc were hit with sticks.
Wonder why, unlike others, Ilocanos are kuripot.

"true love is life's best treasure.
wealth and fame may pass away,
bring no joy or lasting pleasure.
true love abides all way.
through the world i'll gladly go,
if one true love i know."
