Bayanihan Park (Angeles)

Philippines / Central Luzon / Balibago / Angeles

Formerly Astro Park

The conversion of Clark Air Force Base from an American to an Philippine Base warranted the renaming of the buffer park, however, the base maintained its American name. Whether nuclear weapons were based here was neither confirmed nor denied by the Americans as a policy.

The majestic Salakot at the original site enroute to Checkpoint was also constructed to remind entrants that they were indeed going into a Philippine base.

Like what they say in Spanish: consuelo de bobo!

Subsequently, our 12 anti-foreign military-base nationalist senators (well, maybe) and Pinatubo Volcano (definitely!) made it all academic.
