Negros Occidental, an Island located in the belly of Philippine Map. Ha! ha! ha! actually this is what I really think when I was in my grade school years.. can you see the smaller map it looks like like a dinosaur...weird right... It's not only that Negros Island is shaped like Santa's Sock.
Ive spent my whole of 32 years , my hometown name is La Castellana located at the south area of the island. I am now married for 5 years and now have a son who is alreadty 3 years old.
Negros they say is an island who can stand without the other island that composed Philippines the Luzon and Mindanao. Before, Negros is noted for being the country's prime producer of sugar. According to the history of negros, the island is the pioneer of sugarcane is Asia. that why people from other countries come here top educate themselves. 1970's is a difficult time in Negros. I think its because at that time Marcos is the president and he control the whole Nation. I dont need to elaborate anymore just look up more info about negros here Negros Island
Today Negros is trying return to its former state. But its still in recovery stage. If there is no dishonesty we can be ahead. Crab mentality is the worst case here in Philippines...I think its part of life here. I believe a good leader is also a big factor for Negros to move ahead in the future.
(on our way to La Castellana..)
