After almost 20 hours of nonstop travel on land and sea from Samar all the way down to Masbate, teams disembarked from the Montenegro Lines ferry in Masbate City, still weary from running the length of San Juanico bridge in their previous leg, but nevertheless ready to face their next challenge in the Ready-Set-RORO! DBP Interisland Race.

CEBU CITY, Philippines – Cebu City residents and visitors can expect grander Sinulog festivities next year even if the budget will not go up, organizers and officials said over the weekend.
?We have elements of surprises that we cannot mention as of now,? said Ricky Ballesteros, Executive Director of Sinulog Foundation Inc. (SFI) following the conclusion of their Sinulog 2009 workshop last Saturday.
Budget concerns for next year’s annual festival after the Commission on Audit (COA) issued a circular that prohibits allocation of funds by local government units (LGUs) to organizations headed by public officials or their relatives.
