It could have been better if you had attached pictures of these ancestral homes not only for the President but for all of us to see. I'm truly glad that there are Filipinos like you who appreciate, treasure, and defend our heritage and culture. Bobbie Palmdale,CA.,USA

Yes, i'm one with you...NO to DESECRATION of BOHOL's CULTURAL HERITAGE!!! Sa mga nag-iisip galawin ang Baclayon Church at kalapit na mga bahay-bahay...sana mag-isip-isip naman kayo. Kakaunti na nga ang maganda sa Pilipinas, heto at magbabawas na naman kayo? Sana for a change makaisip naman kayo ng mas maganda, mas relevant na konsepto. Progress doesn't mean destruction!

Ang pagwasak sa mga ancestral homes sa Baclayon ay nangangahulugan ng pagwasak sa ating kultura at pagwawalang pansin at pagpapahalaga sa ating kultura at kasaysayan. Ang mga ancestral houses sa Baclayon ay yaman at kultura di lamang ng mga taga-Bohol kundi ito ay yaman ng lahing kayumanggi. Sama-sama po nating ipanalangin na huwag mawasak ang ating kultura at sariling pagkakakilanlan.

Mabuhay po tayong lahat. Kapanalig po ako ng ating mga kababayan sa Baclayon sa pagsalba sa mga bahay na sumasalamin sa ating mayamang kultura. Ako po ay isang estudyante ng pagdidisenyo at naituro po sa amin ng aming mga propesor ang kahalagahan ng mga istrukturang ito, lalong lalo na po ang mga simbahan. Kaya't kasama po ninyo kaming mga estudyante sa pagdudulog ng hinaing na ito. Ang pagprotekta sa ating kasaysayan at kultura ay hindi nangangahulugan ng di pag sang ayon o pagtatalikod sa kaunlaran bagkus, ito'y nagpapakita ng pagrespeto sa nakaraan para sa isang progresibong bukas. Nawa'y maliwanagan ang mga taong nasa posisyong pigilan ang naka-ambang paninira.

I am one with those who say NO to destroying these ancestral houses.

It is probably too late to comment now but I just came to this by chance. I think it is irresponsible to destroy old houses without seeking all other possibilities in prolonging their life or even strengthening them. I have not been to this place but one cannot feel sorry not only for those people affected but also for the Phil in general when things of cultural value must be destroyed in the name of progress. The oldest church or one of the oldest must be spared at all cost and one does not need common sense at all to realise that saving it is important. I really hope that these things were not destroyed. Respecfully
