Tabuk City, Kalinga – Governor Ferdinand Tubban, during the unveiling of the new monument of Captain Juan M. Duyan in Kalinga on February 14, 2020, recalled how the multi-awarded veteran became one of his inspirations for leadership and becoming a good public servant.


Tubban said Duyan's great legacy apart from the awards and honors is the legacy of leading by good example and serving with the public as the priority.


While relating Duyan's contribution in public service as the first congressman and the first elected governor of Kalinga-Apayao, he said the man became one of few people who made him want to go into serving the people through public office.


“I’m very proud nga mangibaga a daytoy ama tayo a ni Captain Juan M. Duyan ket adu ti na-inspire na ket maysa ak met lang ken dagiayen ta ti panag serbi na ti ili tayo – diay old Mt. Province ken ili tayo a Kalinga, ket isu latta manu nga tawenen,” he said.

He added that the service provided by Duyan is what people are looking for, “diyay ti maysa nga il-iliwen da, adda kuma ti maysa nga agserbi nga kasdiay [kasla ken Captain Duyan]. Ket haan tayo met kuna nga kasdiay a kasdiay nu di ket adda met innovations a maaramidan dagiay sumarsaruno.”


Meantime, Tubban recalled a story when he was a child wherein his mom referred to Captain Duyan as someone who always makes sure to make the bed before leaving the guest room at Tubban’s house.

“After diay visit na, intu nu agawaid ket apan kanu kitan ni mama diay kwarto kasla awan kanu ti nag idda, kasla haan nga nausar,” he narrated.


Nevertheless, Tubban conveyed it is an honor for him to know the accomplishments of a man like Captain Juan M. Duyan, “this is a legacy a mabalin a kanayun nga isu ti paka in-inspire an amin dagiti aanak tayo,” he stressed.
