People's FOI Now
Philippines



Jul 3, 2014 — The July 1 FOI Town Hall Meeting and Coordinated Sign-on was successfully held last July 1. The central program at the UP Bahay ng Alumni was opened by the showing of a video on the FOI campaign (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8ahsTyqc74). The highlight of the program was the Town Hall Meeting hosted by Malou Mangahas with Senator Grace Poe, Mr. Ramon Del Rosario Jr. of Makati Business Club, Ka Gerry Rivera of the PAL Employees Association, and House FOI Champions Rep. Emmeline Aglipay, Rep. Leah Paquiz, Rep. Gus Tambunting, and Rep. Walden Bello leading the panel discussion. Committee on Public Information Chair Jorge Almonte had a video recorded statement, and Rep. Teddy Baguilat particpated via phone patch.

Bayang Barrios, Lolita Carbon, and the UP Engineering Choir rendered performance numbers to further liven up the gathering.

Throughout the program, we received updates from simultaneous sign-on activities in different parts of the country.
