CALAPAN CITY, Philippines – Oriental Mindoro Governor Alfonso Umali cancelled the annual Governor's Ball today, and instead donated P1 million for the victims of Tropical Storm Sendong in Mindanao.
Umali said they decided to divert a total of P1 million funds of the provincial government to help the families of the more than 1,000 people who died on the recent devastation in Mindanao.
“We will no longer do partying here while there are people in other places who are mourning,” said Umali.
The amount will be equally apportioned as financial assistance to the provincial governments of Misamis Oriental and Lanao Del Norte.
Umali said he is still looking for other donors as additional support of the province to all typhoon victims.
The “Governor’s Ball" here is an annual thanksgiving party being held traditionally for more than 50 years now
