Biyahe Baclayon

Baclayon is no longer about visiting Baclayon Church, if you are a tourist!

BEZO Initiatives, an organisation which aims to provide sustainable socio-economic programs through eco-tourism have teamed up with the local government to come up with a program that lets you experience a different Baclayon.

One such program is Byahe Baclayon. It is composed of three tours designed for visitors who want to explore Baclayon's natural wonders and heritage and cultural sites.

Vote for Efren Penaflorida as CNN Hero 2009

I have cast my vote for Efren Penaflorida, which I am proud to call my fellow Filipino, as my CNN Hero 2009. Please support Efren with your vote!

Click on the widget above and you will be led on to a CNN webpage showing all nominated heroes. Click on Efren's picture and you will be able to read on his heroic story that is very much worth reflecting on and emulating especially by our youth.

The Philippines national hero Jose Rizal described the youth as the hope of the fatherland. Efren's story makes you still believe in Rizal's words.

Chocolate Hills was featured in the search engine Bing.

The search engine Bing is Microsoft's answer to Google and Yahoo search engines. It went live in June of this year.

One feature that makes Microsoft's Bing interesting is their use of background images. Changed daily, these images are of amazing places around the world.

Chocolate Hills appeared in Bing Australia last 9 June. There is a short description of Chocolate Hills in MSN UK tech and gadgets.

I first came across this feature of Chocolate Hills by Bing a few months back through SEO Hong Kong. This website is published by a Filipino of Bol-anon roots.
