DALWANGAN village is a suburb of Malaybalay City in Bukidnon province, and has been home to some 2,000 families, mostly lumads belonging to the Bukidnon tribe.
One of them, Ondo Mambalamban said that some years back he had high hopes that most of his children will settle near his house and raise their own families. The village is an ideal place where the cool breeze wafts the sweet scent of plants and flowers giving a balmy atmosphere all day long.
But that was long ago, Ondo lamented. “I missed those days when Dalwangan exuded comfort and sweet scent of the mountain breeze that blows all day long. My family, then, always wake-up each morning with inspiring smile as we meet the glow of the sun rising above the mountains of Malaybalay. What a beautiful day, we always exclaim!
