It was three years ago today that Djoma and I launched the Aliguas Mangaldan website . Today , it has evolved from a two feature site into eleven features . Thousands have visited the sites . Reconnection among families and friends is an on-going process and soon , a Grand Reunion among Mangaldanians will take place in Las Vegas . So far , more than three hundred kabaleyans will be trekking to that special event . All information about the Grand Reunion is being published and updated and monitored by Djoma and myself .
Thank you to all our surfers , readers and " commentators " . Because of you , guys , Djoma and I will be continuing with our voluntary roles in reconnecting Mangaldanians as well as celebrating the life , history and culture of Mangaldan in the best way possible . It has always been a pleasure for me to see a face lighting up upon reading an article or to read a comment that warms the heart .
I always hope that our Aliguas Mangaldan website will always serve it's purpose . Please respond to us in real time by using the comment box . We want to publish what might be of interest to you but we also need your feedbacks .
Thanks and do continue logging on to www.aliguasmangaldan.net . Each and everyone of you , kabaleyans , are very important to us ...
MAALIGUAS KOMON SO PANAMALEY TAYON AMIN . GOD BLESS US ALL ! ! !

Dear Cecile and Ross ,
Thank you for your very inspiring comments . If we have ignited our readers even with a flicker that lights up their lives , that would be truly a great accomplishment .
The reconnection that is happening now through this website is truly remarkable . With the forthcoming Grand Reunion of Mangaldanians in Las Vegas sparked by our readers' desire to see each other , I truly believe that the almost " impossible dream " is happening , ( as you wrote ) .
Thank you for believing and supporting us in this endeavor . Let us enjoy each other's company in Las Vegas .
We hope to continue with our website and we will always value your comments .
See you in Las Vegas , Cecile and Ross .
MARIE

Dear Djoma and Marie:
Once again, please allow us to "congratulate" both of you -- the "think tank" of the "AliguasMangaldan.net" website on its third anniversary! Truly, our hats are off to both of you!!!
Because of "Aliguas", Mangaldanians livng worldwide were able to reconnect with each other; because of "Aliguas" the impossible happened, -- the creation of
"Mangaldanians" International Organization"; and finally, because of "Aliguas", the unthinkable is about to happen -- the grand reunion of Mangaldanians in Las Vegas!!!
Surely, our "kabaleyans", the true beneficiaries of "Aliguas" join me in wishing you both continued good health and long life! You were "heaven sent"!!
Needless to say, you "light up our lives" through this wonderful website!!
Sincerely,
Cecile Ferrer-Mejia
