As DAILY TRIBUNE continues to deliver news without fear and without favor, its leaders, editors, reporters, layout artists, accounting staff and pre-press personnel unite in delivering truth that will shape the country’s future, one story at a time.

After days of sleepless nights to finish the momentous 200-plus copies of DAILY TRIBUNE’s 26th Anniversary issue, it’s now time to relax and celebrate — the KaTribu way.

Of course, the revelry began with a Holy Mass, officiated by Fr. Geoffrey Eborda Jr., OSA, to thank God Almighty for the publication’s 26 challenging, wonderful and fruitful years.

Despite the headwinds and the grief brought by the loss of our dear Katribu family members, the organization continues to persevere and is growing stronger and sturdier.

DAILY TRIBUNE editors and staff join the power couple in celebrating 26 years of resilience and grit.

Online staff Chynna Basillaje and Gwen Bergado flaunt the broadsheet’s 26 sweet years.

The layout artists’ side share a light moment while putting the DAILY TRIBUNE pages to bed.

“We are stronger as a family. That is why we deliver the message to the Filipino people with firmness, truth and courage,” Willie Fernandez, president of DAILY TRIBUNE, said during the celebration.

The occasion became even more festive after Boss Willie announced that all his dear KaTribu would receive a midyear bonus (yeheeeey!) for their hard work and for consistently keeping the publication at the top.

We extend our appreciation to the sponsors who provided delectable food, making the celebration a true feast.

As Hollywood actor and professional wrestler Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson says, “Success isn’t always about greatness. It’s about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success.”

Cheers to more success, from your KaTribu!
