Central Luzon Balita (CLB) President Ms. Angel Faith Danganan achieved a major milestone today after being featured on the front page of the Philippine Daily Inquirer, one of the country’s most influential newspapers, in its November 24, 2025 issue.

Her photo was captured during the 2025 Belenismo sa Tarlac celebration — a moment editors deemed compelling enough to represent the national story.

The front-page image was taken by acclaimed Inquirer photojournalist Willi Lomibao, whose shot of the CLB President stood out among hundreds of festival images.

In addition, another photo of CLB President Angel Faith — taken by Philippine Star photojournalist Jesse Bustos — was published on Philippine Star Online, where it quickly gained traction across the internet.

CLB President Expresses Gratitude

Reacting to the unexpected national spotlight, CLB President Angel Faith Danganan expressed her appreciation:

“I am thankful to the organizers of Belenismo. I didn’t expect that PR would extend to being featured on the cover of the Philippine Daily Inquirer. This is truly humbling,” she said.

Her statement reflects both gratitude and pride, not only on a personal level, but on behalf of Central Luzon’s growing digital media presence.

Belenismo sa Tarlac: A Cultural Christmas Tradition

Belenismo sa Tarlac is a province-wide Christmas festival that showcases elaborate Nativity (“belen”) displays. It attracts photographers, media outlets, tourists, and artists — making it one of Central Luzon’s biggest annual events.

This year, the presence of the CLB President became an unexpected yet iconic visual highlight.
