PMC President Atty. Raul C. Villanueva emphasized the importance of collaboration, stating: “For the Bunawan tribe to prosper, the LGU, the Bunawan tribe, and PMC need to be united to realize the development we aim for the tribe. Once the cultural center is constructed, the BMADMCI will have the opportunity to properly impart their ancestral traditions.”
PMFI Executive Director Reygela M. Decalit emphasized, “The center is more than bricks and concrete; it is a symbol of our commitment to build knowledge, preserve the rich Manobo culture, and empower the future.”
