CPU tourism students host “Paghirupay, Musika sang Pag-iririmaw”

CPU second year Tourism Management students attended the “Paghirupay” with renowned choreographer, Mr. Romel B. Flogen as guest speaker.

CPU second year Tourism Management students, under the class of Professor Denie Erwin Tan conceptualized an event last April 1, 2022 through a premiere video via Facebook as part of their HPC 2206 class, Introduction to Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE). This subject actually trains the students in organizing, producing and handling such events in order to help them in their future field of work in the Tourism and Hospitality Industry.

The guest speaker in the said event was Mr. Romel B. Flogen, a graduate of Bachelor in Physical Education major in Dance at West Visayas State University PESCAR College. He is the President of the Ilonggo Artists Festival Association Incorporated and as well as a renowned choreographer who won prestigious awards such as 12-times Iloilo Dinagyang Grand Champion as a choreographer and who shared his talents and skills in the field of theatre internationally. He also introduced Philippines’ culture in countries like Thailand, Pakistan, Germany, USA, and France.

The event was entitled, Paghirupay- Musika sang Pag-iririmaw, an Ilonggo Music Festival to showcase the culture and arts of the Ilonggos through dance and music that was originally choreographed and composed by Ilonggo Artists and was made to show on screen by the students themselves. The over-all chairman of the event was Mr. Charles Benedict Capayan and was assisted by his Co- Chairman Ms. Vea Española. The students brainstormed and made a successful output through their hard work and unique talents and skills. Job well done, students!
