Who is the NCCA National Artist with the highest award of Gawad Manlilikha ng Bayan?

The National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA) of the Philippines does not rank its National Artists or its Gawad sa Manlilikha ng Bayan (GAMABA) awardees. Both the Order of National Artists and the GAMABA are the highest honors given by the Philippine government to Filipino artists. The Order of National Artists recognizes individuals who have made significant contributions to the development of Philippine arts and letters. Meanwhile, the GAMABA recognizes individuals or groups that have preserved and promoted the traditional folk arts of the Philippines.

Therefore, it's not accurate to say that there is a National Artist or a GAMABA awardee who holds the "highest award". All awardees
