NHI Markers installed at the Capitol
Heritage markers from the National Historical Institute (NHI) written both in Cebuano and Tagalog have been installed at the Cebu Provincial Capitol building. The unveiling ceremonies came in relation with the opening of the week long celebrations of the 439th founding anniversary of the province of Cebu. With the markers in place, the capitol building is now officially recognized as a cultural heritage landmark and is now protected by law thus forbidding any physical alterations without prior consultation and approval from the NHI. It will also enable locals and tourists alike to appreciate and learn something more about the capitol.

i think it would be best that the tagalog marker be changed to english for everyone’s appreciation.

why are they insisting on the use of that so called national language? english would have been better.
on the brighter side, it would serve as an exercise for tour guides to sharpen their english translating the phrases to the tourists. =)
