Abaca Products

KIAMBA, Sarangani (July 2, 2009) – Mayor Rom Falgui views a showcase of unique hand-crafted abaca products honoring the International Year of Natural Fiber. The mayor continues to source out funds to maximize the yield of abaca in the municipality. Last November, three abaca stripping machines were turned over to Tboli families in the uplands
of Kiamba. On Farmers Field Day, forums and hands-on activities were prepared to educate farmers on the importance of natural fibers highlighting abaca as Kiamba’s One Town One Product (OTOP). The local government of Kiamba partners with Fiber Industry Development
Authority (FIDA) in commemorating the International Year of Natural Fiber. (KIAMBA NEWS CENTER/Abner P. Arzaga)

    For Lippin May C. Ayta, I am glad there are people who are more interested into abaca business. I may be able to help as I did an Industry Study on Abaca if you want you can communicate to me through my email ad iosop@yahoo.com
    Definitely we are developing the industry in the province of Sarangani. Am now based in MSU-General Santos City.
