Senator “Inday Loren” Legarda has gifted her fellow Antiqueños with a back-to-back concert of the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra (PPO) titled “Paskwa: A Christmas Concert” on November 30 in Tibiao and on December 1 in San Jose.
“This is my gift to my kasimanwas. I am sure they will enjoy the PPO’s music. It was 25 years ago when the PPO first performed in Antique. We commemorated that last March when they performed in Anini-y and now, they are back to share their music to more Antiqueños,” said Legarda.
Senator Loren Legarda today stressed on the importance of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius especially for a vulnerable country like the Philippines.
“Our world today faces an unprecedented challenge in this era of climate change: The challenge to survive and thrive despite the dangers the changing climate brings. The challenge to transform our societies towards a green economy and for a sustainable future,” said Legarda, UNISDR Global Champion for Resilience and UNFCCC National Adaptation Plan Champion.
