🕊️ IN MEMORIAM | A POLANCOHANON NATIONAL ARTIST

The Municipality of Polanco joins the nation in honoring the life and legacy of National Artist for Literature Dr. Resil Buagas Mojares, a distinguished Filipino writer, teacher, scholar, and cultural historian who was born in Polanco, Zamboanga del Norte.

Although he spent most of his life in Cebu, where he built an extraordinary career in literature, history, and cultural studies, Polanco takes pride in being his birthplace and a meaningful part of his story.

Through his lifelong dedication to Philippine literature, history, and culture, Dr. Mojares earned national and international recognition and established a distinguished legacy as one of the country’s most respected literary and cultural figures.

Today, we honor the memory of Dr. Mojares, a distinguished Polancohanon, whose life and works will forever hold a place in our nation’s cultural heritage.

Rest in peace, Dr. Resil B. Mojares.
Polanco remembers you with gratitude, honor, and pride. 🕊️🇵🇭
