M alakas at M aganda
Malakas at Maganda
(a national folklore)
Cradled amidst thick rain forest, shrouded with the mists of legend and ancient traditions, one folklore has it that a weary
bird perched on a large bamboo heard strange noises inside. It pecked the bamboo, split open and from inside came the
first man and woman, Malakas the strong, Maganda the beautiful, the parents of all peoples of the island.
