MABUHAY!
 
Welcome to our beloved town Licab, the Home of Kariton Festival.
 
I convey my esteemed greetings and congratulations to the administrators of Licab.net for making this site possible. This modern means of communication is crucial in connecting Licabeños to the world and vice versa.
 
Seven years ago, I took the initiative of discovering the real history of our town, for us and this generation to have a glimpse of the past, that we are lucky not to endure the horrors of those bleak moments of our town’s history. Today those moments are eternalized and glorified as we gaze the monument of our Founding Father, Don Dalmacio Esguerra on our newly constructed Liwasang Dalmacio (Dalmacio Park).
 
Once a sixth class municipality and totally dependent on Internal Revenue Allotment, Licab  is showing unyielding  cause in working for a change  since we have chosen hope over fear, development over status quo and  resiliency over reluctance. Now, we are a fourth class municipality and God willing at the end of this year, we will be a third class municipality.
 
 Patuloy tayong magkaisa at manalangin para sa ating bayan sapagkat walang ibang magmamahal at magmamalasakit dito kundi tayo ring mga tiga Licab. Tayong lahat ay maging matatag at nagkakaisa tungo sa isang maunlad na bayan at para sa kinabukasan ng ating mga anak.
 
On March 28 2010, we are inviting all our kababayan abroad to a GRAND HOMECOMING. Please come home and visit us.  Experience the joy of Licabeño hospitality. You will see and feel the difference now. You will be a long-lost brother or sister and will be treated to a real celebration of our town’s 116th FOUNDATION ANNIVERSARY. Some of the highlights of the celebration will be Kariton Festival, Gabi ng mga Licabeño, the Search for Mutya ng Licab 2010, Trade Fair and Medical and Dental Mission.

We recognize that the image below is the Official Seal of the town of Licab, Nueva Ecija.  But have we ever understood what the different symbols mean?

In the previously posted Licab's history, we have learned that Licab was founded in 1894, and it was Don Dalmacio Esguerra who worked hard so that Licab would be an independent municipality.

Kariton Festival

In celebration of Licab's 115th Foundation Day on March 28, 2009, Licab townfolks, visitors and guests witnessed the launching of the 1st Kariton Festival initiated by Mayor Wilfredo Domingo and the town's municipal officials. 

A first of its kind in the Philippines, the celebration was inspired by the town's history, wherein its founder, Don Dalmacio Esguerra, along with his brothers, used the Kariton as a mode of transportation to travel from Ilocos Norte to Licab to escape the friars' plans of sending them to Mindanao to fight the Moros.

From then until today, the Kariton has been a part of Licab's rich culture, as local farmers continue to use it to transport their harvest and crops from their farms to the markets.  Made of yakal, the Kariton signifies the strength of the Licabeños in facing life's trials and challenges.

During the event, the eleven barangays of Licab adorned and decorated their carabaos and karitons and went on a parade, together with musicians, in the town's main streets as spectators and visitors lined up and watched the procession.

This great initiative will surely attract more visitors and tourists in the years to come, and will definitely make Licab known as the Home of Kariton Festival.
