Tickets for the catered din-ner are $25 for each adult and $12 for children under the age of 12. Hawaiian costume is the recommended party attire.

Kultura Nating Magaganda

Page 4 Tambul i Apr i l /May 2004

Marahil ay nakatala pa sa ating mga isi-pan ang mga bagay na natutuhan natin sa ating mga magulang o sa mga guro ng maba-bang paaralan. Ang mga kultura na inihati nila sa ating musmos na mga isip. Siyempre ang babanggitin ko dito ay dalawa lamang, na sa aking palagay ay parehong simple at madaling gawin at madali ding ituro sa ating mga kasalukuyang mga kabataan.

Ang una ay ang paggamit ng “po” at “opo”. Ito ay isang bagay na nagsasaad ng paggalang sa ating kinakausap o mga kina-kausap. Ewan ko pero hindi ko alam kung sino ang nag uso ng “ho” at “oho”. Sa paki-wari ko ay ginagamit ang huling mga panitik kapag ang kausap ay mga hindi kamagana-kan o sa taong nuon lamang nakilala. Subalit magkagayon man, ito ay nagsasaad pa rin ng paggalang. Kay tamis pakinggan kung ating naririnig ang bata na sumasagot sa nakata-tanda sa kanya na ginagamit ang “po” at “opo”.

Ang sumunod naman ay ang “pagmamano”. Ito ay isang sagisag ng ating paggalang sa isang tao. Maaaring ito ay ating mga magulang, tio o tiyahin, mga ni-nong o ninang, o ‘di kaya naman ay sa mas nakakatanda sa atin. Ang kagandahan nito ay nabibigyan tayo ng kapalit na bendisyon. Bagama’t sa ngayon ay medyo nagiging in-gles na ang naririnig natin, gaya ng sinasabi ng iba na “O bless na”. Nanduduon pa rin ang kahulugan nito ang paggalang at pag-bibigay ng bendisyon. Ang iba naman ay iniuuso ang halik at ayaw magpamano. Dahil daw sila ay tumatanda. Pakiusap po, huwag nating kalimutan ang isinasaad nito. Dahil talagang kay ganda ng ating kultura, kahit saan mo pa dalhin ay talagang hahanga ka.
