3 "Giftware"

By: Mariela Mae Adonis

For me when I went in Negros last year, Gift wares is also a good product there in Negros. It is usually found in different places where tourists used to go or to travel or to even stay for a vacation and relaxation. Tourists that came from other country are really fond of gift wares because it's their gifts or what we call the "pasalubong" for his/her friends, relatives, etc. Some examples of gift wares are vases, figurines, etc. These gift wares are commonly found in the province of Negros Oriental.

  

Selling gift wares would be like a movie that's very entertaining to the eyes of the consumers/people.

It would satisfy the desires of every individual especially those people/tourists who are looking for something that is unusual or cannot be found on their place, so that, they will be able to try something new that they haven't done before. Who would choose to try something over and over again?! None, of course! All of us wanted to try something new.

All of these statements are true because based on my experiences when I was in Negros last year; I was on my way to a specific place somewhere in Negros. Then suddenly I saw a group of people in a store and the first thing that comes on my mind, "What are these people up to?" Since I'm really conscious about it, I get out of my car to see what's happening. I asked the owner of the store if what's going on and she said that their stocks are almost gone and some of it were already reserved for somebody. Then I asked what their product is and she said that she sells gift wares.

After knowing the situation, I realized that gift wares are wanted by many tourists. In the first place, I found gift wares kind of cheap but I was totally wrong. By the use of this kind of product, we will be able to show how Filipinos' perseverance & hardwork for them to sustain their everyday needs. Some Filipinos are really clever when it comes to business. They really used the mind & knowledge in right way given by our Almighty God.
