“From Mayor Pedro Dacumos, who hired me in June 1984 up to Mayor Jose Silvosa, in his time when I got my present post now from being the city assistant general services officer,” said Bautista, a Kalagan Muslim from Barangay Datu Abdul.
“Even throughout the city, there’s no dscrimination, there’s even greater closeness and solidarity between Christians and Kalagan Muslims,” she said.
She is a relative granddaughter of Datu Abdul, a legendary chieftain of Kalagan Muslims in the city.
