  3. It's good that the provincial tourism prepared early for one of the biggest events in the province. I would suggest changing the tagline ("one music. one dance.one culture. one Bukidnon.") & have it in "binukid." It seemed to be rip-offed from Sinulog's One beat. One dance. One vision. I know there is a better one out there; prove that Kaamulan is the only authentic ethnic festival in the Philippines. :)
