SINULOG WAS INDUCTED TO THE HALL OF FAME INSPITE OF THE FF:
NO CULTURAL RELEVANCE=what is the role of monkeys and bananas to Cebuano culture?
NO HISTORICITY=Pintados are not recorded in Cebu but in western visayas.
MEDIOCRE PERFORMANCE=the same dance steps and formation for 3x
NO CREATIVITY=repetitive moves for 3x
NO INNOVATIONS= same performance for 3x
ALIWAN FESTIVAL AS GRAND SHOWCASE OF PROVINCIAL CULTURE BECAME HIGHLY CONTROVERSIAL BECAUSE OF THIS.
