Raffia weaving is a thriving industry in Bohol, not just in the towns of Tubigon and Inabanga, but also with the rest of the province where the buri palm grows.BOHOL, Philippines —
"Raffia weaving is a thriving industry in Bohol, not just in the towns of Tubigon and Inabanga, but also with the rest of the province where the buri palm grows. There are also areas producing cotton and sinamay.
