                    [Summary] => 



CABANATUAN CITY — Overcrowding in the city’s public cemetery is forcing locals to bury their dead in a nearby private cemetery.


The century-old cemetery in Barangay Accfa, owned by the city government, is practically "bursting at the seams" with locals needing a new site to accommodate the dead.

The STAR
learned that overcrowding in the public cemetery has resulted from up to 160 burials a month. On many instances, residents visiting the tombs of their loved ones are shocked to discover new tombs in front of their kin’s.
