Finally! We have "Bayan Ko 'To (BKT)"! BKT is a list of all the Philippines' cultural treasures and pride by towns, which in turn, would map out the pride of our provinces, and our regions.

We enjoin all Filipinos to participate in this identification of all known cultural bits we know of our towns. This is information sharing at its best! This is what we call "pride of place" or "pagmamalaki sa sariling bayang tinubuan!"

Go on and fill everyone in on the valuable information we have of our very own towns. Let us proudly announce to all who could hear: "Bayan Ko 'To!"
