00:00 There's a unique career here in Calawag, Quezon.
00:03 But the Calahok are not humans, but animals.
00:08 In the town of Calawag, Quezon,
00:11 there are people preparing for the big fight of the year.
00:17 I will join the competition for my children.
00:23 I have three children who are studying and one is about to graduate.
00:27 When you fight, you must fight hard.
00:30 But the ones who will be the winners are not humans, but...
00:37 One, two, three, four!
00:41 ...cowards, if they are small.
00:46 ...and brave.
00:55 Move!
00:57 My dear friends, let's go and party at the Alimango Festival!
01:05 Every May, the town of Calawag organizes the Alimango Festival.
01:14 Because the town is the biggest exporter of alimango in the whole province of Quezon.
01:21 That's why, the competition includes the creation of different alimango dishes.
01:28 And the Calahok are six senior high school students from different schools in their area
01:35 who came from cooking alimango appetizer and main dish,
01:40 such as crab embutido and crab salad.
01:45 We have been organizing the Adyok Kalawag Alimanga Festival for 13 years.
01:50 Almost half of the barangays here are surrounded by coastal areas.
01:57 That's why, the alimango is abundant here in our area.
02:00 Oops! Before you get excited, the main attraction here is not only the appetizer,
02:08 but also the alimangong that are almost as heavy as 2 kilos of rice.
02:14 And the alimangong for the race.
02:19 Unlike his son, RJ did not finish his studies.
02:24 That's why he is dedicated to the education of his children with the help of the fisherman.
02:30 So, even if he has a career in alimango, he will also join.
02:34 There is only a small part in the children's studies.
02:37 Hurry up! Hurry up! So that we can win later.
02:39 RJ has been catching alimango for a long time.
02:42 That's why he is already determined which alimango is the best for career.
02:47 Many people need to be stress-free.
02:50 I catch alimango, the weight is a competition so that it is strong and strong.
02:56 Then, it needs to weigh 200 grams to 250 grams.
03:00 Last year, they were in fifth place.
03:07 So, this year, he will get back.
03:10 You will do well in our competition, so that I will not cook you.
03:16 Our favorite, Cyrillo, has been caught a few times but he never say die.
03:21 Because this year, his opponent is heavy gut alimango.
03:28 He will join the heaviest crab catch competition.
03:33 It is 7 to 8 months to grow like that.
03:37 It can be fought.
03:38 Sometimes, it is still thin, it is still fattened, that's why it takes longer.
03:42 This can be bought for a lot of people for food.
03:47 And this is exported to other countries.
03:50 If the kids are ready, the alimango is ready.
03:54 To cheer us up, another winner of the "Binibiling Kalawag 2024" will be with us.
04:10 And there, our audience is waiting for the heaviest crab competition.
04:15 So, let's ask them.
04:17 Are you ready?
04:19 Yes!
04:20 When the weighing started, the alimango caught are getting closer.
04:27 Some of them weigh more than 1 kilo.
04:34 For now, the heaviest one is 2.345 kilos.
04:41 It's fat, it's big.
04:44 I've never seen a crab like that.
04:47 But the question is, will Cyrillo's alimango win?
04:52 The pressure is real.
04:55 Because the champion of this contest is his mother.
05:02 I joined the competition last year because we caught an alimango.
05:07 We were happy and it's big, 2.695 kilos.
05:12 This year, she said she gave her son Cyrillo the chance to join the competition.
05:18 He will experience joining the competition, he will enjoy it.
05:23 It's time for Cyrillo to weigh.
05:26 Will Cyrillo surpass 2.3 kilos?
05:30 And the weight?
05:34 2.105 kilos.
05:42 That's okay Cyrillo, we're still impressed with your heavyweight alimango.
05:47 It's a competition, there's no winner.
05:51 But there's no one to stop him because the battle is not yet over.
05:56 RJ and his alimango will fight.
06:00 This is the next exciting, crab racing.
06:03 Let's see who has the fastest crab.
06:06 The alimangos are ready.
06:09 Go alimango of RJ.
06:11 The race has started.
06:13 3, 2, 1, go!
06:17 Go, go!
06:20 Go, go!
06:23 Go, go!
06:25 Oh my!
06:29 He's going sideways.
06:31 But in the middle of the competition, RJ was stopped by his son.
06:40 RJ looks nervous.
06:45 Because his target is the grand prize of 3,000 pesos.
06:49 He will use it for his son's graduation.
06:52 That's why I'm so nervous.
06:54 I have 3 kids who are studying and one of them is about to graduate.
06:57 I have a surprise for him.
06:59 But after a few moments,
07:02 Go, go!
07:04 The battle continues.
07:09 Go, go!
07:18 Because of RJ's stoppage, he didn't get the first place.
07:24 But it's okay, because the 5th place is now the 4th place.
07:29 Kuya, what happened to your crab?
07:33 I was stressed because there are so many people.
07:36 It's like you're on the side.
07:38 But it's okay.
07:39 Will you join again next year?
07:41 Yes, to celebrate the alimango festival.
07:44 We will always be happy.
07:46 Mr. Ferilo and Pareja Gabor.
07:49 Even though RJ and Rilo didn't win,
07:52 they will not go home empty-handed.
07:55 And the most important thing for them,
07:58 they were able to celebrate the alimango festival.
08:03 The end.
08:06 To be continued.
08:09 To be continued.
08:14 To be continued.
08:17 To be continued.
08:21 To be continued.
08:24 To be continued.
08:27 you
