Hello J.L., thanks for your interest in our town's Buling-Buling.
The significance of this festival is to honor the town's patron, Sto. Nino.
Currently, Samahang Sining at Kalinangan ng Pandacan is the most
active organization spearheading the town's festivities. I believe the
group is getting financial help from various sponsors. You can find
them on facebook and multiply.com page. Look for Robert Tomas
for questions regarding Buling-Buling's future.
Pandacan also has a lot of seniors who are leaders of various civic
group. One of them is Mr. Antonio Santos; you can also find him on
facebook, but I think he prefers to use email, which can easily be
googled if you are interested to ask him a few questions.
Personally, I think Buling-Buling still lacks promotions despite past
TV appearances. On the town level, I believe the participants should
parade around the whole town – or at least on all major arteries – to
increase the residents' awareness of the event. Start here, then the
rest follows.
Good luck in your studies and I hope this information, although
small, helps you and your groupmates in some way.
