Glad to see more feedback

Glad to note that we have now more contributors to MIF Website. I refer to an article by Ms. Dolly Banzon that poverty is not an excuse for being dirty "physically and morally."
I hope and pray we shall have more contributors of articles like the one published by Ms. Dolly Banzon as well as about matters of general interests.
That Sampaguita blooming in winter photo is really something to marvel about.
By the way, the other day I went out to buy toilet articles from a supermarket near our place here in Santiago, Chile. Lo and behold. I saw at the counter among perfumes and bathroom articles a soap brand "Ylang-Ylang." And its fragrance is really like that of our "Ilang-iIlang" in the Philippines. I immediately purchased several of them and brought them home excited like a child, for that toilet soap reminds me of "Ilang-Ilang" fragrance back home in Infanta.
There are many things we take for granted at home until they find their way into the inernational market.
By the way, among our women folks, who still remember the bark called "gugo" used by our grandma and mother as shampoo? The "gugo" keeps their long jet-black hair clean and shiny after a bath in the spring or "bukal" in brgy. Ilog. Remember?
And that goes to show that we Pinoys and Pinays are traditionally clean physically and morally as reminded by Ms. Dolly Banzon in her article.
