Peaceful. Although this year's Sinulog celebration was generally peaceful, rumors that there were explosives found by the police have circulated. An Ear informer said his Facebook friend sent him a private message asking him how true was the report about the explosives.
Not true. The same Ear informer asked his friend who is a well-placed official of the police unit, who confided to him that he, too, received the same query. "Di na tinuod bay. Nganong ato man itago kun tinuod na? Kana pa nga atong ma-justify ang signal shutdown (That's not true. Why should we hide it if it's true? If that is true, the signal shutdown was justified)," the police officer said.
