Join the Blog Action Day on Oct. 15
Bloggers Kapihan invites all Filipino bloggers to take part in the Blog Action Day 2008 on Oct. 15.
This year’s edition takes on the issue of poverty, a reality we face every single day. On Wednesday, let’s take on this issue by blogging (or micro-bloggin) about it through text, audio, video or photos. You decide how.
Our poorest countrymen — the minimum-wage earners, the farmers, the unemployed and underemployed, the minorities et al — deserve to have their voices heard because their problem is our problem, their redemption is ours too.
