Governor Bong Lacson graced the ceremonial Christmas Tree Lighting at SM City mall in Bacolod City.

SM City executives led by Mall Manager George Jardiolin and other guests joined the governor in the activity.

Lacson said that on the occasion of the annual tree lighting, he would like to remind everyone to look at the present circumstances from a different perspective.

“Yes, we are not allowed our usual revelry, however, we also now have more time to deeply reflect and ponder on the significance of the birth of our Savior, and what it means to us,” he said.

The governor also said that for this season, he encourages everyone to support local and help and support one another in this difficult time.

The theme for this year’s Light a Tree at SM made representations of sugarcane and iron dinosaur, which is a collective story as a people and as a province.* (Capitol PIO)
