Ang 𝐊𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐧 ay nagmula sa salitang Mandaya na "𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐰," na nangangahulugang 𝐦𝐚𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢, 𝐦𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐚, 𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚. Nagsimula ito bilang pagdiriwang ng 𝐀𝐩𝐨 𝐃𝐮𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠, ngunit nang maging alkalde si 𝐑𝐨𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐨 𝐑. 𝐃𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐞 ay opisyal itong pinalitan bilang "𝐊𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐚 𝐃𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐰". Ito ay isang tanyag na pagdiriwang ng 𝐛𝐮𝐡𝐚𝐲, 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐚 𝐛𝐢𝐲𝐚𝐲𝐚, 𝐤𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐤𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚, 𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐢, 𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐤𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐚 𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐚𝐦𝐮𝐦𝐮𝐡𝐚𝐲.

𝐍𝐚𝐠𝐤𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐚 𝐬𝐚 𝐬𝐚𝐲𝐚, 𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐤𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐭-𝐛𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐠 𝐬𝐚 𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐠! 🫂

Ipinagdiriwang ng 𝐒𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐅𝐈𝐋 ang makulay at masaganang 𝐊𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 — isang pagpupugay sa ating mga 𝐲𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧, 𝐤𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐧, 𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐤𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐢𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐚𝐡𝐢. Sa bawat ngiti at awit, ipinapakita natin na tayo ay iisang puso at diwa.

Sa pagbubukas ng klase ngayong araw - 𝐀𝐠𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐨 𝟏𝟎, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔, ginanap ang ℎ𝑎𝑙𝑎𝑙𝑎𝑛 para sa 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐠 𝐔𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐚𝐨𝐧 na pinangunahan ng mga 𝐎𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐲𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐅𝐈𝐋 na idinaos sa Bagong Bukas na 𝐂𝐓𝐄 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠.

Marami ang nakitaan ng potensyal upang maging kinatawan ng kanilang antas, ngunit ang nakakuha ng 𝑝𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑘𝑎𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑎𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑏𝑜𝑡𝑜 ay walang iba kundi si 𝐆. 𝐑𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐨 𝐈𝐈𝐈 𝐆𝐨𝐧𝐳𝐚𝐠𝐚 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐬𝐨𝐝. ❤‍🔥

Gaya ng iba pang mga nominado, naipamalas nila ang kanilang mga pang-akademikong kredensyal, kagustuhang mamuno, at ang maging bahagi ng samahan.

Mabuhay ang bagong halal na kinatawan ng unang taon.
Mabuhay ang mga bagong kasapi ng SAMAFIL.
Mabuhay ang wikang Filipino.

Sama-sama sa SAMAFIL. 🤎
