"Maayo ang proseso sa pagpili sa atong mga judges mao nang makasiguro ta nga walay reklamo (The judges chose well that's why we are sure we will not be entertaining complaints) in terms of the choosing of the winners," Avisado said.
The Indak-Indak was made exclusive to Davao-based groups and schools this year and Avisado said this will still be the case next year.
The City Government opted for exclusivity as to make the celebration authentically Davao.
