IBP Davao City Chapter

15/07/2026

Oops… Our excitement got the better of us! 😅🎂

It appears the Chapter was a little too eager in celebrating the birthday of our beloved Executive Judge Rowena Apao-Adlawan. Her special day isn’t today after all. It’s on July 29! 🙈

We guess that’s what happens when you’re excited to celebrate someone as wonderful as Judge Adlawan.😄

So, instead of calling it an early greeting, let’s just call it a “continuing” birthday greeting that lasts all the way to the 29th! 🎉🥳

Advance, ongoing, and soon-to-be official Happy Birthday, Executive Judge Rowena Apao-Adlawan! May your days leading up to your birthday, and the year ahead, be filled with good health, happiness, and countless blessings. 💐🎈
