The Sangguniang Bayan of Asipulo has asked Ifugao Rep. Solomon R. Chungalao to file and sponsor a bill declaring Jan. 13 of every year a special nonworking holiday in the municipality to mark its founding anniversary.
In Resolution No. 2025-207, the SB said that the proposed holiday would allow residents to participate in anniversary celebrations, cultural activities and community gatherings.
The SB also said establishing an annual holiday through legislation would ensure its consistent observance and remove the need for yearly renewal.
The Sangguniang Bayan said they and the Municipal Government will provide supporting documents, historical data and coordination to help advance the proposed legislation.
The resolution will be sent to the Provincial Governor’s Office, the Department of the Interior and Local Government Ifugao Field Office and the National Historical Commission of the Philippines for their information, endorsement and support.
Asipulo was created through Republic Act No. 7173, signed into law on Jan. 13, 1992, separating it from Kiangan, Ifugao. #
