In 2012, the Trade Fair in La Trinidad started on late March and lasted for 6 months. It was even held at in front of the public market, and at the Municipal Park grounds. Then thereafter, that same year, another trade fair was held for the whole month of December. A total of about 7 months in one year!! How could the mayor (Mr. Abalos) leave this alone? Or is he allowing legitimate businesses, small and big, nearby that pay taxes to die?
