- Banong Iloilo, Masrangan ta ni
Rise Iloilo. We can overcome this. The city will rise once again with the concerted effort of everyone. This is not the time to blme each other but a time to rekindle the spirit of love, unity and oneness. The city will overcome whatever destruction the typhoon has caused with Banong Iloilo as its new battlecry.
