Jer,
It's the same all over the Philippines. They just love setting off
fireworks. Don't know where most get the money but a lot is spent in
each community. Cheap Chinese fireworks added to home made I guess.
The shots of NY & Sydney (?) celebrating was nothing compared to our
sub division.
Manigong Bagong Taon.
