The next activity is having an open forum or a barangay session where residents with 18
years old and above are welcome to participate and speak their concerns regarding to their
barangay. It is an event that will give chance to the residents to say what they observe in their
barangay and the way the officials rule the community. Having an open communication will
make the community more reliable to each other since they can make up of the
misunderstandings they have and possibly to have a peaceful community especially for the
children. Though anytime, everyone can make decision anyway if they want to have a peaceful
community or not. In this activity as well will challenge the decision making of the individual,
his/her motivations in making decision.
Of course the celebration will not be complete if there is no mass that will happen. Giving
thanks to the Lord and asking for His guidance should always be present. Then the events that
will entertain the people will be present as well. These events are; fun run, pageants, sportsfest,
and the most popular event in every barangay at night, the so called “sayawan” or let’s call it a
solidarity night. It is open to everyone even to those who’s not a resident of the barangay.
Since, there are so many events that will going to happen, having a division of labor to
those organizers or officials will help to make these events possible. Every officials and
volunteers, if there is, should have their own tasks in order to avoid conflicts and make sure that
everyone is functioning so that the event would be a successful one. If there are no assigned
tasks for everyone, there might be a conflict with the other tasks they needed to do. Thus, the
one who have the power or authority should be the one governing his/her subordinate. Use their
power to influence everyone to do their job well. The one with the highest position should be the
role model and should be the one who gives more efforts to make the activities possible and
successful. But then, unity is still the key to a successful event.
