A happy couple** and the Kurong-kurong*  demonstrates Filipino ingenuity: 
  • Folk enterprise
  • Market-on-wheels
  • People's E-commerce
  • Multipurpose local vehicle 
  • Direct farm-to-market link
  • Suki*** vendor-customer relationship
  • Happy disposition at work
*Kurong-kurong is a  heavy-duty motorized tricycle - motorcycle with an open sidecar, proudly a Filipino invention.
** Cesar and Tessie Tabangcura of San Vicente, Ilocos Sur
***The common Japanese word suki, pronounced "suh-kee", means a liking of, or fondness for; it means you love something or have a taste for that thing.
