Morning Banana with Motto

I love bananas and the nutritional contents of it. Bananas are commonly cultivated over Southeast Asia region. Philippine soil and climate are just right  for cultivating all kinds of banana.

We have two variety of banana namely saba and tordan over our small farmland. Which are growing all over the place and almost once a year we have a harvest of one/two Buwig of banana.

For the saba we love it boiled, or with sugar banana que, turon banana of lumpia rapper or banana ice during summer.

While for the tordan it is best serve or ate ripe. Banana every morning help me for my digestion because it has 75 % water and is a valuable source Potassium,Vitamin A, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin C .

Throughout the year banana is harvested and can be bought in your favorite convenient store and supermarket.

While Metro people can have a dose of Healthy DOLE® Cavendish Banana in your nearest convenient store. DOLE® Bananas are packed with vitamins and minerals it is best as a morning treat to give you the energy to last though the day.

Philippines was known to be one of the largest user of social media specially Facebook. The official Facebook Page of PAGASA was launch. 

Click here and like the page.  

The official page wall became a place for discussion, request and question. Some question are relevant some are not, some people shared link of international weather agency and question about PAGASA credibility.  But like Doc. Yumul said " PAGASA has all the accountability on typhoon that enters the PAR".  

For the latest Philippine news stories and videos, visit GMANews.TV

PAGASA finally showed radar image of typhoon like they promised on their twitter account. By the help of twipic PAGASA can simply shared the latest satellite images and radar images to the public. What you see on the image was the actually echo of the typhoon as it passed the 400 KM range of Baler Radar. Baler radar was strategically located to monitor typhoon coming from the Philippine Sea. And by the help of this radar PAGASA can monitor the exact location of the weather disturbance.
