bloggers commentary:
I'm reposting this from Gerry's blog thanks Gerry for the big udpate!
I also saw that not all events and exhibit are open to the public, in order to attend some private event, an individual should join the PICCA membership and the package fee is Php1,500.
I just hope I can shell out some cash and attend all of it. I'm very interested to attend all activities and do a coverage for this blog.
Are you interested to attend this event ? I'm game!!!!!
