Christian Amiel Miranda, a scholar of Mayor Oscar Rodriguez and the city government, will go to Davao on February 21 to 26 to contest for the best editorial cartoonist title.

Miranda won the first place in the Regional Schools Press Conference's "Kartung Pang Editorial" category at the tilt held in Gapan, Nueva Ecija last December 7 to 11.

Miranda’s mother Alice, a health worker at the Provincial Health Office, said his son has been inclined to editorial cartooning even in his grade school days.

"He loves doing it and many of the judges in the contest were actually impressed about his skills and interpretation. He has made some contributions to national dailies and tabloids too," mom Alice told Sun.Star Pampanga.

Miranda also designed the winning mascot of ICT in last year's "Piyestang Tugak" or Frog Festival. He will be feted with recognition Monday at the City Hall for his accomplishments during the traditional Monday morning flag raising rites.
