If I remember correctly, @ayalamuseum closed and started renovations in 2018. I was a bit sad but I knew I'd have better things to look forward to when it reopens in 2020. Then came the pandemic. This does feel being "hostage to an uncertain future." So perhaps it'll be in 2021 then. I hope the Butuan Treasures will still be available for viewing. I saw them the last time I went to #AyalaMuseum but I came late so I wasn't able to take a good look at them, given that no picture-taking was allowed (of course, the collection is both national heritage and treasure) and INTPs have different pace of looking at things.

"Let us teach our people again to be proud that they are Filipinos. Let us teach them to realize anew that being a Filipino means having as rich and noble a heritage of language, culture, patriotism and heroic deeds as any nation on earth. Let us teach a steadfast faith in Divine Providence, a stable family institution, the unhampered enjoyment of civil liberties, the advantages of constitutional government, the potentials of a rich and spacious land." Carlos Peña Rómulo 1899 - 1985 Former President of the United Nations General Assembly (The first Asian to hold the position.) Former Chairman of the United Nations Security Council Former Secretary of Foreign Affairs Former Ambassador to the United States Respectfully known in the world as “Mr. United Nations."
