&lt;a href="http://www.adtrek.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;ADTREK-MC &lt;/a&gt;upang tulungan ang ating mga kapus-palad na kapatid na mga mangyan. sa sunud sunod na flash flood at mga bagyong dumaan sa mindoro ay tila di natinag ang mga mangyan. tuloy ang ikot ng buhay para sa kanilang komunidad, tuloy ang pag-aaral para sa mga batang mangyan. nasira man ang ilang bahagi ng kanilang magandang lugar ngunit hindi ang kanilang pag-asang makaahon sa hirap balang araw.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span

/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;kung inyong matatandaan, &lt;a href="http://adtrek.blogspot.com/2005/12/tulong-sa-lantuyang.html" target="_blank"&gt;ang adtrek ay namahagi ng ilang kagamitan sa pag-aaral ng mga bata dalawang taon na ang nakakaraan&lt;/a&gt;. natuwa hindi lamang ang mga bata kundi maging ang kanilang mga magulang at mga guro. sa unang pagkakataon ay may nagbigay ng tulong para sa pag-abot ng kanilang mga pangarap, tulong na di lamang nagmula sa adtrek kundi sa lahat ng mga taong nagbigay pahalaga sa karapatan ng bawat bata na makapag-aral. ngunit sabi nga nila, ano mang materyal na bagay ay may katapusan, darating ang panahong ito'y mauubos rin. ano ang kanilang gagawin sa pagdating ng pagakakataong iyon? mahirap mang isipin at tanggapin ng karamihan sa atin, ang magagawa nila ngayon ay umasa na lamang. umasa na sana isang araw ay muling may mag-aabot ng tulong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img

ng karamihan sa adtrek na darating ang pagkakataong iyon. sa pagsisikap ng mga organizers, muling nagkaruon ng katapuran ang marahil ay panalangin ng ilang mga mangyan na sana'y may mag-abot muli ng tulong sa kanilang pag-aaral. at nuon ngang august 24 ng umaga, 5 magigiting na miyembro ng adtrek ang nauna sa mindoro upang paghandaan ang pagdating ng kabuuang tropa ng mga volunteers galing sa adtrek-mc at mga kaibiganng nais maglingkod. august 24 ng gabi, 5 van ang sunud sunod na bumiyahe patungong batangas pier, bukod pa dyan ang ilan na nag-commute patungong batangas pier, kasama na ang dalawang kaibigan na nagmula pa sa pampanga upang tumulong. umaga na ng august 25 ng kanilang marating ang lantuyang, baco, oriental mindoro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a

nagsigising na ang ating mga volunteers, ano nga ba naman magagawa nila kung sobrang agang pumalahaw ng bopek upang manggising. kung maaga mang nagising ang tropa ay marami ring mga bata ang maaang nagsipagdatingan sa paaralan. kulang man sa mga tulog at pahinga ay buong siglang nagtutulong tulong ang lahat ng kasama upang bigyan ng isang masayang araw ang mga batang mangyan dito. upang hindi mainip at mainitan sa arawan ang mga bata, nagkaruon ng munting film showing, kung nakita nyo lang sana ang ngiti ng bawat isa habang walang kurap sa panunuod sa puting telon, pawi ang inyong pagod at puyat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at

palabas, ay ipinaghanda sila ng isang munting merienda. marahil ang iba sa kanila ay hindi pa nag-aalmusal, kaya ganun na lang ang tuwa ng mga bata habang pinagsasaluhan ang aming munting nakayanan. sinimulan ang ikalawang palabas para sa araw na 'yon matapos ang kainan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span

/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ang ibang bata ay masayang nagbabasa ng aming mga dalang aklat habang kami ay naghahanda. dahil sa ang bawat volunteer ay tao lamang, kailangan din munang magpahinga at kumain panandalian. sa pagkakataong iyon naman dumating ang isa pang sorpresa ng adtrek sa mga bata, ang bago nilang mga upuan. ang ilan sa kanilang upuan ay tatlo hanggang apat na bata ang gumagamit dahil sa kakulangan nito. ngayon ay di na sila masyadong magsisiksikan habang nagtuturo si teacher. matapos ang pananghalian ng mga bata at volunteers ay ipinagpatuloy ang film showing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span

/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sa pagkakataong ito ay mas naging inter-active ang pagdadala ng tulong sa mga bata. kung nuong una ay mga parlor games bago ang pamimigay ng mga kagamitan ngayon naman ay mas nagkaruon ng "bonding moments" ang mga bata at ilang myembro ng tropa. tatlong bata ang babantayan ng isang ate o kuya habang sila ay tinuturuan ng pagkukulay ng mga coloring books, hindi alintana ng mga ate at kuya at mga bata ang init sa luob ng classroom dahil sila ay kapwa natutuwa sa kanilang ginagawa. tsaka, andyan naman ang ilan pang ate at kuya na walang kapaguran sa pagpapaypay upang kahit paano ay maibsan ang init, ang iba marahil ay sinakitan ng kilikili, heheheh!!! pero ok lang, for a good cause naman ika nga.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Photo Sharing and Video

naman ay may nagaganap na story telling sina teacher angie at teacher betong. huling huli nila ang mga kiliti ng mga mas may edad na bata. napuno ng tawanan ng mga bata ang kwarto habang sila ay masayang nagkukwentuhan at may konting laro din. at sa mga bintana ay makikita mong nakadungaw ang mga magulang,nakangiti habang masaya sa luob ang kanilang mga anak.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

ilang oras ding "bonding moment" nina ate/kuya at mga bata, sa labas naman nagkaruon ng palaro. ngunit katatapos pa lamang ng unang palaro ay bumuhos ang ulan at walang nagawa ang lahat kundi sumilong muna at ihanda na ang sususnod na activity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img

/&gt;feeding program naman para sa mga batang mag-aaral ng lantuyang.naghanda rin ang tropa, sa pangunguna ng best feeders group, ng konting sopas, tinapay at juice para sa mga bata. nang matapos pakainin ang lahat ng mag-aaral ay may sumobra pa sa niluto kung kaya't nakatikim na rin ang iba pang mga bata at maging kanilang mga magulang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a

salu-salo ay humupa na ang malakas na ulan. dito na ipinamahagi ang mga school supplies na para sa mga bata.bawat isa ay sabik na sabik buksan ang kanilang mga bagong bag na natanggap. sa pagkakataong ito ay nagsamasama ang mga bata at volunteers sa ilang picture taking upang sa gayon ay magkaruon ng isang magandang remembrance ng kanilang muling pagsasama sama.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

sa atin na ang tulong na ating naipaabot ay hindi pangmatagalan. ngunit marahil sapat na ito upang hindi sila sumuko at mawalan ng pag-asa sa buhay. pag-asa ng mga magulang na kahit man lang sa elementary o high school ay makapagtapos ang mga anak nila; sa mga bata, pag-asa at inspirasyon na may mga tao pa palang nakakaalala sa kanilang kapakanan at karapatan na makapag-aral. makalipas ang ilang buwan, ang isang taon, ano na ang kanilang kalagayan? tanging mga bata ang makasasagot nyan,ngunit sa ganang akin, habang alam nilang may mga nagmamalasakit sa kanila ay marahil tuloy ang laban. laban sa kahirapan at mithiing makatapos ng kanilang pag-aaral. nawa'y hindi ito ang maging huling pagtulong natin hindi lamang sa mga mangyan kundi sa iba pa nating mga kapatid na nananahan sa mga kabundukan ng ating bayang minamahal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:78%;"&gt;Words

american rapids, according to our tourist guide(driver of the scenic trolley), this rapid was rated at level 6 (which is unusual because the regular rapids are rated from level 1-5, just ask your

style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;this is what you can see every night here. they say the view from the canadian side is better because you have the front view of both falls compare to side

agawam, massachusetts. it's the nearest theme park from our location. since we can't afford to go to disney land in florida or california, we settle for this one, heheheh!!! we did enjoy the rides here, specially all the roller coasters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://risk07.zoto.com/img/original/87aa13e2e422462ed19bd337303f8b73-.jpg"

picture? they were really hanging up side down in this ride, the catapult. it rotate 3x clockwise and 3x counter clockwise, and in the transition, you'll be hanging just like that for 2-3 second. all your blood rushing to your head and your body is being pulled down by gravity. but it was fun riding this one... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a

superman ride of steel. the first drop is 221 foot high (20 story building) and you'll experience 10 seconds of weightlessness. this is a mile long ride that takes about 155 seconds and with the top speed of 77mph. the first time i rode this one (2001), we had to wait for an hour in line.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img

two hours. the long wait is really worth your time. but last weekend, we were the second group to ride it. as soon as the gate was openned, everybody ran to the superman and we got lucky we got there early, heheheheh!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

ang tubig at masarap sa likod ang patak ng falls pagtapat mo dito, para kang minamasahe. sa luob naman e malakas ang hangin at apyas ng tubig. pwede kang mag-stay dito hanggang gusto mo at mag-swimming sa may bungad nito, wag ka lang tatapat ng husto dun sa binabagsakan ng tubig ha, heheheh....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;kung balak mo magdala ng camera sa luob nito, siguraduhin mong waterproof ang paglalagyan nito. pero mas maganda yung dry bag, siguradong tuyong tuyo ang luob nun. dala ka na rin ng maraming tuyong pamunas, dahil siguradong mababasa at mababasa ang camera mo pag ginamit sa luob nito.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;masarap ngayong pumunta dito para magpalamig... summer na naman at damang dama na ang init dito sa atin... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div

kumuha sa akin bilang abay, heheheh. nagmukhang tao daw ako at hindi halatang taong bundok, nyahahahah. matapos ang reception ay dun kami nagsimulang bumiyahe patungong pico, mag 8pm na ko nakaalis ng alabang at pasado alas-diyes ng gabi dumating sa jump-off. dumating kami ng campsite ganap na ika-11 ng gabi.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com"

nakauwi.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;di ko na rin maalala kung ano sa dalawang larawan ang una kong kinuhanan. one thing for sure, less than a minute

/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;ito ang pinakagusto kong part, sa grassland. bagama't expose din ito e sulit naman sa view lalo na at mas mataas ka pa sa mga ulap. puro bamboo dwarf ang madaraanan mo dito.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span

/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;ambangeg trail, mossy forest dito kaya medyo presko ring maglakad. nang kami'y mapadaan dito, muli kong naalala ang kinabalu climb namin, ganito rin kasi ang trail na dinaanan namin e, yun nga lang, mas mataas ang elevation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

actually, mas una mo itong madadaanan kung patungo ka ng pagsanjan falls. mas mataas ito kumpara sa pagsanjan pero mas mahina nga lang yung agos nito. ang lugar na ito ang sya ring nagsisilbing stop over kung papunta pa lang kayo. dito magpapahinga sandali ang inyong mga bangkero, pwede rin kayong mag merienda dito at uminom ng tubig lalo na kung nabigla o na excite kayo sa mga rapids na inyo ng dinaanan. magabwi na rin kayo ng lakas ng luob dahil mas malakas pa ang rapids magmula rito hanggang makarating na kayo sa inyong pakay. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;at kung nais nyong walang masyadong asungot sa pictures nyo, agahan ang pagpunta dito. kami kasi e mga 8 pa lang ng umaga e nakasakay na kami ng bangka patungong falls. kaya naman, solong solo namin iyon ng kami'y dumating dun.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;at bago ko malimutan, sabi ng mga bangkero, pag malakas daw ang alon (malamang pag maulan) e hanggang dito lang sila naghahatid. sensya na at di na namin naitanung kung pano yung binayad nyo kung hanggang dito ka lang. di na namin naisip yun dahil narating naman namin yung pakay namin e, nyahahahahah!!!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;try nyong puntahan ito....

type='text'>pagsanjan falls</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;nung nakaraang weekend, napagkayayaan naming magpunta ng pagsanjan falls. wala lang, isang biglaang lakad na walang kaplano plano. basta gusto lang namin marating yun, nakakahiya mang aminin, kung saan saan na kami nakarating tatlo, pero first time pa lang namin dito, heheheh.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img height="399" alt="Image

style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;sakay ng bangkang ito, tinahak namin ang bumbungan river mula sa bayan ng pagsanjan hanggang sa may waterfalls. masaya ang aming paglalakbay, kulang kulang isang oras bago namin narating ang aming pakay. exciting lalo na sa mga rapids. may labing anim daw na rapids dito, di na namin nabilang dahil yung mga huling (3-5) bahagi ay masyado ng malakas at di na namin nagawang bilangin dahil sa ang hiling namin e yun na ang huli, nyahahahah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com"

D70)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;ito ang pagsanjan falls. initial reaction namin nung makita ito, "yan na yun?" maganda naman sya kung pagmamasdan. pero sa mga tulad naming iba't ibang falls na ang nakita sa tuwing umaakyat kami ng mga kabundukan, it would be a regular one for us. in fairness, very exciting yung trip going here (pasalubong sa agos) at yung pabalik (mabilis dahil sabay sa agos). not to mention yung ganda ng view habang nasa bangka ka patungo rito.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;note: sa mga nagnanais pumunta rito, mangyaring dumiretso na kayo sa bayan mismo ng pagsanjan, laguna. naruon ang tourism office. dun na kayo kumuha ng mga bangkerong maghahatid sa inyo. Php660 per person lang ang bayad (max 3 per bangka). pwedeng mag-tip pero di pwersahan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;salamat nga pala kay &lt;a href="http://eye.e-writings.com/" target="_blank"&gt;eye&lt;/a&gt; sa pagpapahiram nya ng D70 camera nya sa trip na 'to...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8412473-114060700628112362?l=risk711.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://risk711.blogspot.com/feeds/114060700628112362/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8412473&amp;postID=114060700628112362&amp;isPopup=true' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8412473/posts/default/114060700628112362'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8412473/posts/default/114060700628112362'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://risk711.blogspot.com/2006/02/pagsanjan-falls.html' title='pagsanjan falls'/><author><name>risk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10408589270705479004</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/may05/eric.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/places/th_mini-_DSC3652.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412473.post-114050446544137077</id><published>2006-02-21T14:42:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2006-02-24T03:32:24.750+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Edet River</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosting by Photobucket" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/F1010006.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosting by Photobucket" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/F1010010.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;This is Edet River, this is where everybody usually have their lunch when taking Akiki trail of Mt.

We took the Akiki-Ambangeg trail of Mt. Pulag. It's not that unusual except that normally it will took any group 2 days to go up (via akiki trail) and 1 day to go down (via ambangeg trail). Our group, took akiki trail in one whole day. From 11AM to 10PM with rest only to eat lunch, snacks and dinner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.geocities.com/risk1107/pan4.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosting by Photobucket" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/places/pan4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Taken from the summit just after sunrise&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Why do such thing? Each member have different reason why they joined this climb. As for me, I would like to see how far can I go, and it will also test your emotional and psychological strength. And I learn (again!!!) something on this climb, if you're going to do such climb, you should come prepared. And since, it's been a while since my last climb, I had a hard time because of my cramps on both legs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.geocities.com/risk1107/pan6.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.geocities.com/risk1107/pan5.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosting by Photobucket" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/places/pan5.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mt.

And at first he thought we were just joking when we told him our plan. And he was really surprised that we actually did it. In spite of our two-hour delay in starting the trek and two of us suffered cramps, we were still able to reach campsite on the set time and still enjoy the view. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:78%;"&gt;Watch out for more pictures/posts regarding this climb.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8412473-113981467420571945?l=risk711.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://risk711.blogspot.com/feeds/113981467420571945/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8412473&amp;postID=113981467420571945&amp;isPopup=true' title='15 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8412473/posts/default/113981467420571945'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8412473/posts/default/113981467420571945'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://risk711.blogspot.com/2006/02/mt-pulag.html' title='Mt.

Walang nagdala ng tent para daw bivouac na lang kami dahil at 12 midnight e mag-trek na kami papuntang peak 1 then balik sa peak 3 tapos baba ng sto thomas. Training climb kasi namin ‘to para sa mt. kinabalu. Yung inaasahan naming malamig na hangin dito e hindi dumating (kahit nung naglalakad kami ng 1am e walang kahangin hangin kaya di na lang kami bumalik sa peak 3. nag UPLB na lang kami. Adik ‘no?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;dumating na ang matagal naming pinaghandaan, ang &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://risk711.blogspot.com/2005/05/mt-kinabalu.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;mt. kinabalu climb&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;. WOW! Sulit ang pagod at gastos sa climb na ‘to. Ito na ang pinakamataas na naakyat kong bundok.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/may05/mini-F1020030.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="http://adtrek.blogspot.com/2005/05/mt-kinabalu-fun-climb.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;click here for the full story...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;at dahil nga sa may kalakihan ang nagastos namin sa kinabalu, pahinga muna ng konti para makaipon uli. Plus, nag-aral uli ako para tapusin ang engineering course. 3-yr course pa lang kasi ang nakuha ko e. kaya bawas ang mga climbs ko. :-(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;pero nung july e nayaya ako sa &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://risk711.blogspot.com/2005/07/zoobic-safari.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;zoobic safari&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;. I would say na ok rin dito. Pero ang pinakagusto ko sa lugar na ito ay ang kanilang tiger safari. Panalo!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/jul05/safari1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;pero syempre, may mga exemtion sa bawat bagay, pagdating ng august, akyat na naman. Syempre, palalampasin ko ba ang &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://adtrek.blogspot.com/2005/09/litsong-baboy-sa-gulugod-baboy.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;first anniv climb ng adtrek&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;?

First project ng group, first time ko ring mag-plan ng ganito kalaking event. And this project turned out to be just great. Maraming bata, magulang at teachers at maging brgy officials ang natuwa sa munting tulong na aming naipagkaluob.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span

type='text'>Tulong sa Lantuyang</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/climbing/knife.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Mt. Halcon, itinuturing na pinakamahirap akyatin na bundok dito sa atin. Ngunit ang taglay nitong kagandahan ang syang humihikayat sa maraming mountaineers na puntahan ito sa kabila ng hirap na haharapin. Ang mga Mangyan ang sinasabing lokal na naninirahan sa mga kabundukan ng Mindoro kung saan kabilang ang Mt. Halcon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/lantuyang/mini-F1010003.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Sa ilang ulit na pag-akyat ng &lt;a href="http://www.adtrek.blogspot.com" target="_blank"&gt;Adventure Trekkers Mountaineering Club &lt;/a&gt;(ADTREK) dito, nakita namin ang pangangalaga ng mga Mangyan sa kabundukang ito. Dito rin namin nasaksihan ang payak nilang pamumuhay. Isa sa popular exit routes ng ADTrek ay sa Brgy. Lantuyang, Baco, Oriental Mindoro. Dito matatagpuan ang isa sa maraming Mangyan Village, ngunit may mga mangyan na nananahan pa rin sa kabundukan. Pagdadala ng mga prutas at gulay sa kabihasnan ang isa sa ikinabubuhay dito habang ang iba ay inuupahan upang magtabas ng damo at maggamas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Sa mga panahong may nawawala o naaksidenteng mga mountaineers dito, kabilang sila sa mga nangunguna sa pagtulong sa paghahanap. Pagtulong na kadalasan ay di nalalaman ng karamihan sa atin dito sa kapatagan. Tulad na lamang ng nangyari nuong November 2004, sila ang mga nagsilbing guide at katulong ng mga search and rescue unit ng mga kinauukulan at ilang mountaineeriong groups.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/lantuyang/mini-F1020006.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Sa kabila ng kagandahan ng kanilang lugar, masasabing salat sila sa mga pangangailangan sa pag-aaral. Sa aming huling pagdalaw, napag-alaman namin na ang mga silid aralan dito ay walang mga ilaw. Nagsusumikap ang bawat mag-aaral sa kabila ng kadiliman lalo na sa mga panahong umuulan. Pagsisikap na syang tinutumbasan ng kanilang mga guro. Kakulangan sa mga aklat at kagamitan sa pag-aaral ang masasabing isa rin sa kanilang pangangailangan. At sa tuwing sasapit ang tag-ulan ay tila nababawasan ang sigla ng ilang mga bata na magsipasok dahil sa sila’y mga nababasa sa paglalakad pati na rin ang kanilang mga gamit. Masasabi rin na ang kakulangan sa guro ang pinakamatinding problema dito. Sa 101 na mag-aaral, mula kinder hanggang ika-anim na baitang, ay dalawa lamang na guro ang nagtuturo dito. Sadyang malayo ang kalagayan nila kumpara sa mga mag-aaral na nasa lungsod. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/lantuyang/mini-F1010016.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Sa kabila ng kahirapan, nakatutuwang malaman na marami pa rin sa kanila ang nagsusumikap na mag-aral upang marahil kahit paano ay makaahon sa paghihirap. Ang mga sulat sa mga pinaglumaang notebook ay kanilang binubura upang muling magamit. Ang mga lapis ay patuloy na ginagamit hangang sa may pambura, at may natititrang carbon filling. Ang ilan ding mga bata dito ay kinakailangan pang maglakad ng 2 hanggang 4 na kilometro upang makapasok lang. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/lantuyang/mini-F1010005.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Masasabing hindi lamang ang lugar na ito ang naghihirap at maraming kakulangan sa pag-aaral ng mga bata. Marami pang komunidad sa maraming probinsya ang may ganito ring problema. Kung ating iaabot sa kanila ang ating mga kamay, hindi ba't masayang malaman na may ilang bata tayong natulungang simulan ang pag-abot ng kanilang mga munting pangarap? Mga batang syang sinasabi nating pag-asa ng ating bayan. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/activities/mini-DSC00761.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;Ang pamunuan ng ADTREK sampu ng mga kasapi nito ay nagpasyang tulungan ang mga kapatid nating mga Mangyan ng Lantuyang. Ito ay bilang pagkilala sa kanilang pangangalaga ng kabundukan ng Halcon at ang walang sawa nilang pagtulong sa napakaraming mga umaakyat dito. Ang bawat sentimo at pahina ng mga aklat na ating maibabahagi ay karagdagang kaalaman at pag-asa para sa mga kabataang Mangyan. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/lantuyang/mini-F1020017.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;At nuon ngang nagdaang Decmeber 3-4, sa tulong ng bawat kasapi ng ADTREK at ng ilang mga kaibigan at kasamahang volunteers, pinagkaluoban ang bawat bata sa Lantuyang Elementary School ng school supply package, na naglalaman ng mga, notebooks, pad papers, mga lapis, pambura etc. Mayroon ding mga bag, payong. Nagbigay din ng mga luma at bagong libro para sa kanilang gagawing munting silid-aklatan. Maging ang ilang kagamitan sa pagtuturo ng mga guro ay ipinagkaluob din ng grupo. At bilang tulong sa madilim nilang paaralan, ay kinabitan din ng mga ilaw ang bawat kwarto dito at binigyan din ng ilang pamalit. At sa dami ng sumuporta, nagawa ring ipatapos ang kanilang palikuran. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/lantuyang/mini-F1000014.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;"Lubos na lubos kaming nagpapasalamat sa inyo na nagbigay tulong sa mga estudyante ng Lantuyang Elementary School, ito ang kaunaunahang pagkakataon na nangyari ito sa lugar na ito.

namin.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;at malapit sa paanan ng bundok na ito ay ang echo lake. i was surprise nung makita namin na maraming naliligo dito. kung sabagay, dahil sadyang bulubundukin ang bahaging ito, di nakapagtatakang pinapatos na ito nung malalapit dito bilang alternative sa beach.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img

spring resort. and of all the attractions here, we decided to visit this waterfall. a 3.4km uphill trek will bring you to this majestic place, it took us about 2 hrs to get here, as if trekking mt. kinabalu is not enough to give us some body pains. but its all worth it. at 120m(394ft) high, it's truly amazing to see this and have a refreshing bath at it's basin. it is higher than our very own ma.christina falls, which is only 320ft high and even higher than niagara falls which is only 167ft. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;a

ang nakita namin pagdating dito sa limatik. may mga napapasigaw ng " eeeee, LIMATIK!!! tanggalin nyo!" meron namang "aayyyyyy, limatik!!!" paulit ulit lang nyang isisigaw ito habang natatarantang kinukuha ang alcohol nya at wisikan ito.&lt;br /&gt;opo, effective na pang-alis ng limatik ang alcohol, i-spray nyo lang dito at siguradong tiklop ang loko. kung medyo sosi kayo ng konti, pwede rin ang off spray. pwede rin naman ang off lotion at vicks, yun nga lang nawawala ito pag pinagpawisan ka na. kaya da best pa rin ang mga spray.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span

nagpasya kaming subukang muli. kaya nga nuong march 9-13, 13 members ng adtrek ang nagpunta sa baco, oriental mindoro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span

halcon's summit! para sa karamihan ang goal nila ay marating yun, kahit anung oras pa dumating sa campsite. pero para sa akin, gusto kong marating ang summit bago mag sunset. nung unang punta ko kasi ay mag-9pm na ako nakarating. at di naman kami nabigo, dahil nagawa naming makarating dun bago mag-5pm. mas masarap ang pakiramdam ko nung oras na yun, una dahil nagawa kong marating yun bago mag sunset. pangalawa, ay napakaganda ng panahon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span

ng pagod at hirap ay sulit ng marating ang summit!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;nuong nakaraang october ay umakyat ang ADTREK dito, ngunit subalit datapuwa't di kami nakarating sa summit dahil sa sama ng panahon at ilang di maiiwasang pangyayari. nanghinayang ang lahat sa &lt;a href="http://risk711.blogspot.com/2004/10/adtrek-preparing-for-mt-halcon.html" target="_blank"&gt;preparation&lt;/a&gt; na ginawa ng bawat isa para dito. nangako ang lahat na babalik kaming muli, ang isa nga ay di raw magpapagupit hanggang di namin maakyat ang summit. &lt;a

kitang kita naman na mas mataas pa kami sa ulap ng panahong iyon. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;muli naming susubukan na akyatin ito upang sa gayon ay maranasan at masaksihan ng iba naming ka-grupo

(traverse po kami). ang unang plano ay apat kaming makikisabay sa ibang group na magta-traverse din. pero nung araw na yun ay bigla na lang nawala ang isa, kaya ayun, 3 na lang kami. ang dalawang kasama ko, sina eye at lyn, ay naghahanda para sa makiling climb nila. 1st time din nila dito kaya ito ang route na kinuha namin para makita at maakyat nila ng buo ang maculot. ako naman po ay naghahanda para sa climb namin next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.geocities.com/riskblog/maculot4.jpg"

taal lake mula dito. maaring ang karamihan sa inyo ay nakikita lang ang taal mula sa tagaytay. kung ikaw ay nasa tagaytay, madali mong makikita ang maculot. hanapin mo lang ang pinakamataas na point

Bagamat tila hindi pa sanay ang mga locals dito ay sadyang napakabait nila at matulungin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sandamakmak na trail ang inyong madadaanan at malaki ang chance na maligaw ang mga baguhan dito lalo na at walang kasamang guide. Tulad na lang namin, kung ilang beses kaming napalayo dahil nga sa dami ng pwedeng daanan. Buti na lamang at nariyan ang mga locals na pwedeng mapagtanungan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paano kami nakapunta rito ng walang guide? Sa tulong ng isang IT na lumabas sa MMS yahoo group (e-mail). Lakas luob na lang namin sinundan ang mga description duon. Tulad namin, may 2 grupo rin ang gumamit ng IT na 'yon na nakasabay namin. Isa lang po ang di namin nakita na nakasulat sa IT, yung campsite na pwede ang 20 tents. Tatlong group kami na naghanap pero walang makakita kung saan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.geocities.com/adtrek07/posts/marami3.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ganun pa man ay sadyang maganda ang lugar.

the 9th of april was the gloomiest day for the usaffe forces in bataan. it marked the surrender to the japanese imperial army by gen. edward p. king of all filipino and american fighting men and women who valiantly defended the bataan peninsula for four harrowing months. it also marked the beginning of a more than 100 kilometers trek from the southernmost part of the peninsula to san fernando pampanga leaving a trail of the most inhuman treatment accorded patriotic soldiers who offered their lives in defense of country and freedom. this tragic event later on to earn its epithet in hisory as the infamous "Death March".&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt; following the surrender, most of the military units converged at mariveles and from there, because they were promised that they will be set free upon reaching san fernando, pampanga, started to move on their own northward passing thru balanga. it was here that the japanese gathered the prisoners into larger groups and began the non-stop march to san fernando. two japanese guards were at the head of the column, two at the middle and two others at the end to make sure that no one can escape. while april was the hottest month of the year there was no provision for drinking water and to compound the sufferings the marchers were not allowed to break rank to quench their thirst from the murky waters of the canals nearby. those who broke ranks were whipped or beaten with riffle butts, while those who could not keep with the pace of the forced marched were left behind to die or given merciful death with a shotgun. throughout the four day continous march, food which consisted of a ball of rice was provided twice, one at orani, bataan and the next at lubao, pampanga.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt; upon reaching san fernando, the prisoners thinking that they will be sent home to their love ones were frustrated that their travails have not ended. they were loaded on freight wagons (bagon) packed like sardines to destination unknown. after three hours ride they realized they were being unloaded at the rail station of capas, tarlac. again, the death march was to continue. they were forced to walk an additional 13 kilometers to a concentration camp. here the battered and tattered prisoners were to face another battle against unseen enemies which were more deadly than that of bataan: malaria, dysentery, diarrhea, pneumonia, malnutrition, and loneliness. inside this new battlefield the weakened prisoners who walked from mariveles were to find their rest at last. the place will be remembered in living memory as the hellhole of Camp O'Donnell.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"&gt; four months before the attack at pearl harbor by the japanese imperial navy, camp o'donnell was chosen by the staff gen. douglas mcarthur as the training ground of the usaffe 71st division for recruits from the island of negros. the accommodation was only good for 10,000 personnel which was the strength of an army division. but these constructions were partially finished because was came sooner that expected. into this camp the incoming prisoners of war numbering no less than 45,000 were concentrated. living quarters were inadequate thus most of the men slept on bare ground, sanitary facilities were non-existing and there was total absence of water for drinking. water needed to cook rice was fetched from a nearby creek. as result of this inhuman living condition the death rate rose from 20 a day to a staggering 350 to 400 daily after two months. the dead were buried in big holes which served as common graves. total absence of medical facilities and medicine rendered the filipino medical doctora completely helpless to cure the sick nor the dying. it was only through the intervention of the philippine occupation government that the surviving prisoners were gradually released leaving behind 25,000 of their helpless comrades in arms to die in the hallowed grounds of Camp O'Donnell.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.geocities.com/adtrek07/posts/deathmarch.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8412473-110517043582180863?l=risk711.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://risk711.blogspot.com/feeds/110517043582180863/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8412473&amp;postID=110517043582180863&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8412473/posts/default/110517043582180863'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8412473/posts/default/110517043582180863'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://risk711.blogspot.com/2005/01/death-march-saga.html' title='DEATH MARCH SAGA'/><author><name>risk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10408589270705479004</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/may05/eric.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412473.post-110516974736448095</id><published>2005-01-07T20:38:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-01-08T15:48:01.713+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Battle of Bataan</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.geocities.com/adtrek07/posts/samat1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;This picture was taken just recently in Mt.

(it was december 8 in the philippines, west of the international dateline). two hours prior to the attack on pearl harbor, a japanese unit assault party composed of an air force unit of 490 men landed on the island of bataan in batanes province for the purpose of securing an airbase.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;the japanese had secured the beachheads in lingayen gulf, the west coast of tayabas province and legazpi. the 14th japanese imperial army under the command of lieutenant general masaharu homma now started a gigantic pincer attack. the fate of luzon was sealed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;fighting valiantly, the usaffe led by general douglas mcarthur was thrown back by the implacable advance of the japanese. retreat to bataan became inevitable. on this peninsula the defending force, following war plan orange 3, regrouped for a last stand against the invaders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;plan orange 3 was a closely guarded secret, the details of which were known only to a few top american military leaders in the philippines. in the event that their position on the mainland of luzon became untenable, all of its defending forces would be withdrawn to bataan where a "lastditch stand" would be staged to contain the japanese and gain time for the united states to bring reinforcements to the philippines. bataan was to be defended to the "last extremity".&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;the first defensive line in bataan was the hermosa-dinalupihan line where on january 6, 1942 the 71st division, the american 31st infantry regiment and the 26th cavalry regiment fought off the pursuing japanese.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;the main battle postion of the usaffe, the abucay-mauban line, was attacked along its eastern flank on january 9 but the japanese forces were repulsed by the 57th regimental combat team, reinforced by the 21st infantry of the 21st division.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;on january 14, the japanese attacked the boundary of the 41st and 51 divisions. the 43rd infantry, holding the left flank of the 41st division, fought stubbornly and the japanese reeled back. the 51st infantry, holding the right flank of the 51st division, withdrew, creating a gap through which japanese advanced to the salian river, but they were discovered by a patrol of the 21st division were rushed to the salian river valley and after a savage battle succeeded in throwing back the japanese.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;on january 15, the morong sector, defended by the 1st regular division, came under heavy bombardment. but the line held.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;a few days later, the japanese penetrated through a huge gap in the silangnan-natib area and established a road block on the mauban ridge, thus cutting off the 1st regular division from the area. elements of the 71st and the 2nd pc regiment repeatedly attacked the road blocked but failed to dislodge the opposition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;although the II corps sector had prevented a similar envelopment in the salian river battle, the I corps position was now untenable. the abucay-morong line was abandoned on january 24. the orion-bagac line was established two days later.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;meanwhile, in a bold action to trap the I corps, the japanese mounted landing operations on the west coast of bataan while fighting was still in progress at the abucay-morong line. the three ferocious engagements along the west coast of bataan, which became known as "the battle of the points" lasted from january 23 to february 13. these were in the lapiay-longoskawayan points area; quinauan-aglaloma points area; and in anyasan-silaim points. of the 2,000 japanese troops committed to these battles only 34 wounded soldiers returned to their lines.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;on january 27, japanese troops were discovered in the rear of the orion-bagac line, the tuol river valley behind the 11th regular division and the goco-cotar river valley behind the 1st regular division. the series of fights to eliminate as the battle of the pockets, fought january 27 to february 17.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;after the battle of the points, pockets and trail 2, which were brilliant triumphs of the usaffe, the opposition forces withdrew to regroup and wait reinforcements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;meanwhile, on march 12, macarthur left corregidor for australia where he began the build-up of the southwest pacific force. general wainwright took over the command of the united states forces in the philippines (USFIP). the usfip absorbed the ground and air forces, and all the US navy units left in the philippines.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;the japanese high command reinforced homma's 14th imperial japanese army and toward the end of march, they struck. on april 1, homma opened up with his artillery, concentrating the fire against the position in front of mt. samat. the japanese air force also began saturation bombing of the rear positions of the usfip. then on good friday, april 3, the japanese moved in, striking hardest at the junction of the 21st and 41st divisions. mt. samat became an inferno. the forest was set on fire, men were buried alive in their foxholes and every inch of ground was covered by japanese fire.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;on april 4, the japanese infantry attacked the 23rd infantry. crashing through the line along trail 4, they swerved towards the east and struck the flank of the 22nd infantry. by nighttime, the japanese penetrated 1,000 yards behind the main battle position of the 23rd. by april 6 mount samat was surrounded. but the 21st division still held the slope of the mountain.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;late on the night of april 8, general edward p. king, in command of the luzon force, decided that the situation was hopeless and the only way out of the predicaments was for him to surrender bataan.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;on april 9, 1942, they surrendered and the infamous "death march" took place.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8412473-110516974736448095?l=risk711.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://risk711.blogspot.com/feeds/110516974736448095/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8412473&amp;postID=110516974736448095&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8412473/posts/default/110516974736448095'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8412473/posts/default/110516974736448095'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://risk711.blogspot.com/2005/01/battle-of-bataan.html' title='Battle of Bataan'/><author><name>risk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10408589270705479004</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y48/risk07/may05/eric.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412473.post-110367763097994938</id><published>2004-12-24T10:31:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2004-12-24T10:28:06.143+08:00</updated><title type='text'>ADTREK Christmas Party (with ADGUEST)</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img height="275" src="http://www.geocities.com/risk1107/party6.jpg" width="376" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Salu-salo ng mga taong bundok!!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img height="376" src="http://www.geocities.com/risk1107/party5.jpg" width="275" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Konting parlor games muna!!!
