ROAD OPENING IN KIBUNGAN — For decades, residents of Barangay Badeo in Kibungan, Benguet have been clamoring for a road opening project that will connect their village to the national highway either in Benguet or in nearby La Union. One can reach Badeo by a hiking a difficult trail for six to eight hours. But with the ongoing road opening project from Saddle to Lasilas, hiking hours has been reduced to more or less five to six hours. — Harley Palangchao
