Random number between 1 and 228, page 132 of Lakbay Sining: Readings on Cultural Development in the Philippines, published by Anvil and the Cultural Center of the Philippines, a commemorative book in celebration of the 25th anniversary of CCP's outreach and exchange program, begins the article "Encantada was No Fairy Tale" by Agnes Locsin, 2004 Outreach Pilak Honoree.

At the end of the article, the author is described: "AGNES LOCSIN, a native of Davao City, is one of the country's most progressive choreographers, best known for delving into Philippine tribal practices to find inspirations for her choreographic transformations."

(The former artistic director of Ballet Philippines has already received several awards since this publication - 2012 Gawad CCP Para sa Sining, 2014 Gawad Tanghal ng Lahi by the Ateneo, and 2018 Natatanging Gawad Buhay by PhilStage.)
