Biz Buzz: Kundirana changes tune
Kundirana – arguably the country’s most popular high school singing group that counts entrepreneurs and corporate executives not to mention celebrities such as Ogie Alcasid, Gary Valenciano, Rannie Raymundo and Dingdong Avanzado among its alumni – is poised to welcome girls into its ranks.
This has naturally stirred debate (already moot though, as some Biz Buzz sources claim), with one camp of the La Salle Green Hills community wanting the 53-year-old Kundirana to preserve the tradition of being exclusively for boys and the other pushing for the group to keep up with the times and welcome girls.
After all, the institution founded in 1959 by the De La Salle Brothers as an all-boys school has already welcomed girls to its senior high school program starting 2021-2022 academic year.
So why can’t Kundirana?
