After being honoured as a National Living Treasure (Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan) by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) 2012, Magdalena Galinato Gamayo of Lumbaan Pinili, continues to strive in making the abel-weaving tradition in the country alive. At the age of 88, Gamayo is eager to pass the tradition to younger generation through holding lectures and tutorials of abel-weaving at her home.
