Jour de la Saka-Saka

The same dish as pondu, the same cassava leaves, the same long cooking, but call it saka-saka in Kikongo territory and watch how fast the kitchen falls silent if you say pondu by mistake. The debate is not about taste. The debate is about identity. Every Congolese person knows both names. Every Congolese person has a preference. Nobody switches.

Animals of Philippines Day

You observe Philippine eagles, Philippine water buffalo, and Philippine flying lemurs as the most iconic animals native to the Philippines. You see that Filipinos most commonly keep dogs, cats, and chickens as their household pets. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
