Most of the props that will be used by Tribu Mabolokon are still without paint. | Doris C. BongcacThe Sinulog sa Kabataan sa Lalawigan and the Sinulog sa Kabataan sa Dakbayan competitions, respectively, are already scheduled this weekend. But as of Sunday night, Jan. 1, most of the props that performers of Tribu Mabolokon will be using for their performance on Sunday, Jan. 8, are still without paint.
In an earlier interview, Jojo Labella, Sinulog Foundation Inc. executive director, said subsidies amounting to P500,000 and P600,000 respectively would be released to Cebu City-based and out of town contingents that would be participating in the Sinulog 2023.

Custodio said that he was now very tight on budget especially since he also would spend at least P5,000 daily for transportation, gasoline and the purchase of bread for the snacks of their performers. Custodio said other choreographer also shared the same sentiments, a concern that they constantly discussed in their group chat.Members of the Omega de Salonera of Socorro town Surigao del Norte Province also needed at least a million pesos to send 500 to 600 people to Cebu for the Sinulog grand parade on Jan. 15.But they have yet to raise the needed amount, a week before the Sinulog grand parade, said Jeyrence ‘Senior Agila’ Quilario, president of the Socorro Bayanihan Services Inc.
Since they did not receive any financial aid from their local government, Senior Agila said, they were working hard to raise the funds that they would need on their own.
