Tribal dance
MALUNGON, Sarangani (August 18, 2009) – Elon Tolentino plays the faglung, the Blaan guitar, as he dances with Magdalena Gambo and other tribal elders on the occasion of the 55th founding anniversary and 1st Santifun festival in Malalag Cogon Tuesday, August 18. Santifun, a Blaan term for gathering or assembly, reminisces the town’s early years when the natives of Malungon such as the Blaans and the Tagakaolos assemble here for barter and community meetings.
