(Series of 2013)

A RESOLUTION EXPRESSING DEEPEST SYMPATHIES TO THE BEREAVED

FAMILY OF DAN C. ERALDO A.K.A. DJ DAN AND COMMENDING THE LATTER’S SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE LOCAL BROADCASTING INDUSTRY

WHEREAS, Dan C. Eraldo popularly known as “DJ DAN” was a radio announcer of DWGO AM 1008 KHZ back in early 1990s where he handled music programs that brought rhythm in every home reached by the airwaves. His introduction of greetings and song dedications alongside with music then created a perfect form of entertainment to the subtle broadcast industry in Olongapo;

WHEREAS, in late 1990s, Subic Broadcasting Corporation (SBC) established DWOK FM 97.5 and DJ Dan was one of the FM station’s disc jockeys who pioneered the station’s music and greetings format;

WHEREAS, since DJ Dan possessed a remarkably powerful deep manly voice, he captured the listening public’s attention which made people glue their ears with radio sets every time he uses the microphone and be on air; Moreover, DJ Dan could play with his voice to sound like there were several characters which created animation to his programming and radio commercials;

WHEREAS, inherent to his personality was the effortless way of making people laugh  in his positive or negative commentaries, be it in the form of pure comedy or at times with slight embarrassment caused to the  listeners, but  nevertheless, DJ Dan undoubtedly made  everyone happy in every word he uttered;

WHEREAS, due to his exceptional people skills and convincing power, he was  appointed in sales and marketing where he was able to easily tap advertisers and sponsors which resulted to good revenue to the radio station;

WHEREAS, DJ DAN proceeded to organizing events like concerts, competition and his renowned ‘Stage Slammin”- a group dance contest which had drawn many young members in the community to shift to dancing and bring out their unrecognized talents in motion and rhythm;

WHEREAS, dubbed as Olongapo’s “Master Showman”, DJ Dan discovered many local talents with exceptional skills in singing, dancing, modelling among many others. He likewise created a young group of trainees he called “DJs in a Row”, where he trained the members in radio announcing, event hosting and personality development;

WHEREAS, Dan C. Eraldo, a young vibrant broadcaster and entertainer who created an impact to the society, truly deserves a tribute for each and every fragment of his contribution during the golden years of local media;

NOW THEREFORE, on motion of Councilor Eduardo J. Piano, with the unanimous accord of the Members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod present;

RESOLVE, AS IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, by the SangguniangPanlungsod in session assembled to express deepest sympathies to the bereaved family of Dan C. Eraldo a.k.a. DJ Dan and commending the latter’s significant contributions to the Local Broadcasting Industry;

Let a copy of this Resolution be furnished his family and Subic Broadcasting Corporation for their information and record.
