Boronganons used to take pride in the landmarks that
the pioneering leaders have put up decades ago. The most visible among these
include the President C.P. Garcia Arches located on both northern and southern
entrances to the City. Years ago, these landmarks were carefully maintained and
taken care of by the political leaders.

Sadly, these structures are now left to decay. It is a
shame that nobody seems to care about this. In fairness,
the current city administration has done an excellent job in improving many parts of the city and in enhancing local tourism. Fact is, Borongan is now one of the cleanest and most beautiful cities in the Visayas. But why the neglect of these former source of pride?

If Boronganons do not notice this because they pass by
these arches every day, the visitors on the other hand, notice them right away
and are soon disappointed by the neglect. Yada pa gud hit aragian, kawaray gad
hin upay.
