Pangasinan Hosts 2023 Dynamic Youth National Convention

LINGAYEN, Pangasinan—The historic Sison Auditorium in Pangasinan recently played host to the momentous Dynamic Youth National Convention last July 15, 2023. The convention was organized by Dynamic Youth, a national organization established in 1954 to promote cultural enrichment among Filipino-Chinese members and foster stronger relations between the Filipino and Chinese communities. This prestigious event not only celebrated culture and unity but also served as a testament to Pangasinan’s status as a premiere destination for events such as conferences, seminars, and conventions.

Nestled in the heart of Lingayen, the capital of Pangasinan, Sison Auditorium stands as a beacon of cultural heritage and architectural excellence. Named after Governor Teofilo Sison, a prominent figure in Pangasinan’s political history, the auditorium provided an ideal setting for an event dedicated to celebrating culture and unity.

The event was graced with the attendance of 88 participants from various regions of the Philippines, including the National Capital Region (NCR), Davao, Tarlac, and Dagupan City. The convention commenced with a memorable tour of the iconic Capitol Building, allowing participants to delve into the province’s rich history and the building’s architectural features. After the tour, as the delegates entered the auditorium, they were greeted by an enchanting reception hosted by the Provincial Tourism and Cultural Affairs Office (PTCAO) and by the Capitol Dancers, who mesmerized the guests with their vibrant cultural dance performance called Binislakan.

A highlight of the convention was an engaging unity dance where participants joyfully joined performers on stage performing “Kinang Pilipinas” or “Shine Philippines.” The song celebrated the resiliency of the Filipino people, capturing our unwavering spirit and ability to thrive amidst adversity. Furthermore, a momentous turnover ceremony between the Dagupan Chapter and the Iloilo Chapter of the organization was also conducted.

The Dynamic Youth National Convention 2023 at Sison Auditorium, Pangasinan, served as a remarkable showcase of not only the organization’s dedication to promoting cultural enrichment but also the province’s status as an outstanding venue for hosting significant gatherings. The event left participants inspired and hopeful, leaving a lasting impression of Pangasinan as a welcoming and culturally vibrant destination for future events.
