Iti panagbakasionmi idiay ilimi a Sinait iti nagbaetan ti Oktubre 24 ken Nobiembre 20, maysa ti Paoay a pinasiarmi idi Nobiembre 15, 2012. Kaduami da kasinsin Letty, Allan, Isagani ken Lucia. Ni Jim nga asawa ni Mercy ti nagmaneho.

Impasiarnakami ti security officer A. F. Antonio. Segun ken ni Antonio: Nabangon ti Malacanang of the North idi 1976; limned a barangay ti dan-aw.

Paoay was derived from the phrase, “makapaway kami”, which literally means, “We can live alone”. When the early settlers were frequently attacked by the “tirongs”, they were forced to move eastward. In their new settlement site, they discovered that they have neighbors, now Batac town. Believing that the tirongs are still a threat to them, their neighbors convinced them to seek refuge in their place. The settlers begged off, and bravely replied, makapaway kami! Through the passage of time, the place was eventually and permanently called Paoay.

“Considered the Legendary Town of Ilocos Norte, it remains as it is because of the awesome gigantic structure of the Paoay Church built by the Augustinian monks in the 17h century. Its architectural design is the blending of the east and west making it one of the best churches built in the century.

“The lake nearby which draws special interest among historians for it was once a progressive town populated by advanced and scientifically gifted civilization but disappeared in the twinkle of an eye, as the legend goes, because of their evil desires. The now famous Paoay Lake was the exact location of the said community.

“Paoay also the seat of government where the Malacañang of the North is situated overlooking the legendary lake, where former President Marcos attends to his duties when visiting the province. Paoay is famous for its finely craft-woven inabel.

Ditoy met la naputarmi ti ababa a daniw:

ADDA KINADAEG TI LANGIT DITOY

Ditoy, napno ti kinadaeg a pakasaritaan
Lakasa  ti gameng iti namsek a kinaindaklan
Ni Ilokano, samtoy a namunganayan
Ti lagip ken pakasaritaan ti reyenda ti inna panagturay
Pasdek a napno iti pakasaritaan dagiti panawen
Ti gubat, ti kappia, ti progreso ken dur-as
A panaglupos ken panagbaliw ti rupa ti pagilian
Iti Baro a gimong ken baro a pakasaritaan
Ti man Amianan, Abagatan, laud ken daya
Iti di mabilang a summit meeting
Kadagiti teddek ken naindaklan
A tulbek ti turay

Iti sangalubongan.

PIDS expert says income tax cuts justified; warns gov’t of revenue loss

Proposals to amend the personal income tax schedule appear to be well-justified. However, these proposals should include measures that will allow government to recover the revenue loss from lower income taxes. Dr. Rosario Manasan, senior research fellow of state think-tank Philippine Institute for Development Studies (PIDS), said at a seminar sponsored by the Philippine Senate, that government should look for new revenue measures to compensate for the projected revenue loss that will arise as a result of the implementation of any of the various proposals to restructure the personal income tax. Currently, there are several income tax reform proposals pending in both houses of Congress. All of them, according to Dr. Manasan, have the same objective of addressing the phenomenon of bracket creep, which results from “non-indexation to inflation of personal income tax brackets”.
