FLASH!
THE TANJAY ASSOCIATION,
USA WEBSITE
WILL
SELF-DESTRUCT ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
For
over 25 years, this website has served the Tanjayanons and their friends
in keeping abreast with the news about each other, both from the home town,
and from members around the world.
This
has been accomplished by the posting of newsletters, souvenir programs, family
trees, balik-bayan trips, obituaries, announcements, and other items of interest,
by the mere clicking of the link "tanjaycity.org" on any computer's browser.
All
these wizardry has been a labor of love by webmaster Iking Cariño
and various contributors such as Braddock Calumpang, Danny Gil, Perla Manapol,
and many others, who really are the "oldtimers" of the Tanjay Association
dating back to the group's inception in 1983 in Los Angeles.
Now,
all the above are retired, and Perla has passed away.
Maintaining
this website involves money and effort. Later technologies such as
social media also seem to make it less relevant.
We
therefore are "closing shop". To the readership, thanks for everything.
It was fun while it lasted.
Incidentally,
some of the sections such as family trees and the vignettes of Danny Gil
have been migrated to another site "tanjay.rgad.com"

Below are some comments from avid readers of the website.

Hi Danny and all,
I am great fan of Tanjayanons.
My son married a Tanjayanon and developed many friendships among them in
New York. I admire the various pictorials and articles that you created,
which you gave me the chance to archive in albums, books and ebooks.
I know that you and your editorial
staff have spent all your time, efforts, finances, and energy in creating
your website, for the benefit of the members and friends.
I know that websites remain dormant
and in slow motion due to passage of time and retirement of its managers.
I salute your website, as I have
not seen one similar in its informative nature and wide range of coverage.
I am from Daet Camarines Norte and attempted to make a website like
yours, but to no avail and lack of success.
I think it's not wise to retire
your website and wipe it out forever. It may seem that it's inactive, but
it is still useful to some Tanjayanons and friends for its continuous presence
in the cyberspace. It will be useful as reference material for future generations
of Tanjayanons. It will continue to generate unity and togetherness of Tanjayanons,
as legacy and for posterity. There are more positive reasons to maintain
it and let it stay.
I am sure there will be some young
people who might eventually join your editorial staff to keep it alive. Even
if no one will keep it alive, just let it stay in cyberspace to benefit mankind.
Good
luck!
Jobo

"Hi Bradicks,
kumusta na man ... mo diha sa California. Ako, kami retired na, apan
dili intawon sa Tanjay nga mao untay akon plano, didto jud sa Matangad sa
yuta ni mamma, We are here in Blaine, a year ago na atong Mayo... kay
gusto man ni Mrs to be near amo only daughter and the apos.
But hey, unsa
gud ni, what's happening? I visited our website, and was shocked! Unsa
tinoud na? You guys are killing our website. Self-destruction? Why?
Hibalo ka, kanang atong tanjay website mao ra baya gyud na intawo'y
number one kalipay sa mga ingon namong halayo sa Tanjay. Akong cuzzin
sa New Zealand mao pud iya sulti. Maayo man mo dinha kay daghan man mong
taga-atò! Malingaw man diod kami! Ginabalik-balik namo ang mga
sections diha, like mga reprints sa mga old Souvenir Programs very pretty,
the Tanjay experience thru Ramblings, the Family Trees nga nahimong reference
for those tracing relatives, ang Trivia ug labina kanang mga back issues
sa atong Newsletters nga bisan ug balik-balik na ng mga komedya nga Tinanjay,
makatawa man gyud gihapon kami! Mahimout man diod mi ..... ambi unsaon man
na nimo! Ay, ambut lang ninyo! Tambal intawon kana namo nga gimingaw
sa atò. Seriously, bitaw, is the tanjay website
really in its deathbed, counting the days when it self-destructs, dies, and
be lost forever .... without saying (sigh!) a goodbye? Why? Is
not there a way for our Tanjay Association and the Tanjayanons to prevent
its death?
Braddicks, the
most painful goodbyes are those that are not said, nor explained.

PS
COUNTER FLASH
Happily, it seems that the Tanjay Website will not disappear
Sept 30 when the hosting funds will run out. Other faithful members have
come to the rescue. So what you see on "tanjaycity.org"
will remain, and though the front page may seem dormant, the various links
will change as updates are effected.
