Poro, Cebu (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) |
 | | Porohanons are descended from generations of seafarers who came and tamed the restless sea - the sea that in turn defined and shaped their lives. |
 | | This is reflected in their commitment to send their children to schools in Cebu mainland despite the physical, geographical, and psychological distance that they have to endure, or the strain on the familys meager income from fishing, farming, teaching and other manual labor. |
 | | A distinction that separates Porohanons from the rest is their subdialect which is a combination of Cebuano, Waray, Boholano and Ilongo. |
