   ginawa ko sa buhay ni Mariano Ponce at

   at ang Lolo ko ang sumulat ng kanyang
   talambuhay!
C: Talaga! Kaya pala hindi napinsala ang
   Baliuag noong digmaan!!

   you want me to do in the Panel discussion.

   connections to Japan.
N: That will be nice!
C: Is my documentary on the lives of Mariano
   Ponce and his wife be ok?
N: Oh, Mariano Ponce was our townmate and
   my grandfather was his biographer.
C; Really! That explains why Baliuag was not

N: Yes, because the soldiers respected her.
   They said that she comes from a Samurai family.
C: So Kiyo San's family was well-off!
