  This is Sister of the Poor located on top of the hills, before the Anda bridge, this building has two stories with underground floor, this is for the senior citizen both boys and girls live there, that the family can't take care of their grandfather and grandmother (Lolo's and Lola's). In every person have a convenient room, the nuns whose are facilitating the building. Many elite people, other foundation, then concern citizen giving some special gift. Inside of the Sister of the Poor Building is very clean you can observe as well that the Lolo's and Lola’s bust doing their hobbies. Foreigner and local nuns who administered, there are visitors such like us the families of the Lolo's and Lola’s. A great experience that you see old people smiling because of entertainment we show to them.  




     This area is the landscape of the sister of the poor that if you’re looked more farther you can seek the Anda bridge that connect Bolinao and Anda Island, this is a biggest island in the Province of Pangasinan, it also a town, you can found here also a very scenic beach that most local and foreign tourist go here just to experience the white sand beaches of Anda. It also well known them because of their native tongue, you can observe also here that most of them their first family letter start in letter C. 




     In that canal you can seen at our back that is the Agno river and Anda beaches area. . The usual occupation of the people in Anda is fishermen. They made a lot of fish cages to put some milk fish in the cages for them to grow. Recently many fishes died in Anda due to red tide, the businessman or the owner of the fish cages are didn't earned money. But still their doing same practices because this is already been their occupation.




This is Sual Power Station is a 1,200-MW coal-fired power station located near the Lingayen gulf in Sual Pangasinan, Philippines. Development started when Consolidated Electric Power Asia Ltd, a subsidiary of Hopewell Holdings, bid and won a $900 mn BOOT tender for a 1,000-MW power station at Sual. Site preparation began in 1995 and construction started in February 1996. This has been a great site for the foreigner to invest here. A learning as well we earned to them but the security is on high level due to very hazardous and sensitive area that must not been open in ordinary people but this is a best landmark in the province. It has also big contribution in revenues that would uplift the situation of the people of Saul and their social corporate responsibilities for the communities.
