The Online Political Arena of the Philippines

The 2010 elections is coming. With that, and other issues concerning the looming elections, people need to have maximum awareness on the candidates, their platforms, their track record and their personality. Because every vote counts, that is.

A lot of voters, just like me, are first time voters. Thus we have the need to “know” who they (the candidates) are and what they can do to stop our country from its eventual downfall. But how? The media can be jaded and has the tendency to do sweet talking. Some, I believe, even don’t know who’s running and who’s not. So what we need is a centralized area where everything will be about the coming elections, the presidentiables, the other candidates, and an open forum for healthy exchange of political ideas. We need an online political arena. And fortunately, we have that.

PoliticalArena.com is Philippines’ first soci0-political networking site. Basically, what it aims to do is to educate first-time voters and to promote awareness to the society about the elections to come this 2010 and the political issues that surround it. It also encourages participation in the 2010 national elections. PoliticalArena.com is in partnership with COMELEC, PPCRV and Youth Vote Philippines. It also operates under the network of 88DB.com, the Philippines’ first rich media service portal. It has online features that will highly promote voter education. To entice the people to use it, it has acqired the social media networking look with tools such as blog, chat, political forum and other multimedia portals. PoliticalArena.com is also one way for us to get up close and personal with presidential candidates and learn more about their principles, views and goals. This will in turn provide us with sufficient information about them which we can then use as basis as who to vote. Read the rest of this entry »

Angemon: A Digital Art Post-Birthday Present

My birthday was last August 21 but yesterday I received a birthday present (which I have been asking since my birthday until now). It was a digital art I requested from one of my close friends to draw. I requested for Angemon from the series Digimon. I like Digimon when I was a kid. I’m still a kid, btw. :P

Here’s the Angemon from Digimon. He is the evolution of the cute Patamon. I still feel like a kid. :razz:

The one who gave me this is my friend Justine and she’s Fuuyuki756 in DeviantArt so catch her there! Love you Tam hehehe.

Pre-Visayas Youth Summit

Before I begin, lemme share this Tumblr creation of mine first:

It was Alice Roosevelt Longworth who said the quotation and isn’t she right? A quick note, the youth are those ones still full of passion and the initiative to change what has to be changed. We haven’t been to many bumps as much as the adults have faced; we may lack experience but we have the strong will power. And we know we can bring about as much good change to the world. We can.

In line with that, there will be a Pre-Visayas Youth Summit on December 12 & 13 [see details on poster], a two-day activity which aims to reach out to youth groups in the Visayas region [Philippines] in response to the challenges of our changing times. Take note however that this is only a pre-summit and therefore only two representatives from each organization can be accommodated in the said event. This event is brought to you by the Aboitiz Leaders of Excellence. Read the rest of this entry »
