Last Tuesday, the symbolic switch-on of electricity in this former “communist rebel stronghold” in the ‘70s, changed the life of the tribal communities of the Higaonon Tribe as electricity lightened the village nook and cranny.

Abamin founder Rep. Rufus Rodriguez to be the second nominee of the party-list come 2016 elections. Even before he was pre-selected, Sarapuddin has been already active in local society. As charter president of the Metro Cagayan Eagles Club, Sarapuddin has spearheaded various projects in the city benefiting not just fellow Muslims, but all residents in the city, regardless of religion, age and orientation. Sarapuddin did not stop there. See welfare, page A11
