The purpose of celebratring this significant festival in Ilocos, we Ilocanos just not making our place significantly but we trully make history. We offer our delicasies in each municipality of Ilocos Sur and we show our traditions, culture and even our heritage that we could offer to the world. And we Ilocanos is the reason why the country Philippines keeps coming back for more. But as the years past by, our provincial government change the famous name of our very own Kannawidan festival, but if it is the name has changed we still celebrate the remarkable, significant, historical and culmitaning the richness of One Ilocos Sur.
As a Ilocano, I will always taught myself to promote, and share on what my province has to offer and i will be proud to call Ilocos Sur as my home and I will always proudly call my self as Ilocano.
