14TH BENDIYAN FESTIVAL — Clad in their traditional ethnic regalia called “divit” for women and “kubal” for men, residents of Kabayan, Benguet celebrated the 14th Eco-Tourism and Bendiyan Festival on April 27 with the sought-after “bendiyan” which usually gathers a large number of performers to showcase their rich culture and tradition. The other events such as the “abang” and “owik” were well-attended by officials and villagers from the town’s 13 barangays. — Dave Leprozo, Jr.
