Iloilo Bloggers Inc.

First of all we are proud to announce to everyone that our organization – Iloilo Bloggers Inc. is now officially registered at the Securities and Exchange Commission with SEC No. CN201027519. Special thanks to Junelle Caravana for doing all the legwork and the other things needed for the registration process. Salamat guid Nel!

And here’s the agenda of our meeting last January 14th:

1. Announcement of the SEC registration and turnover of documents (Membership Book, certificates, etc.)  from Junelle to me.
2. Media Pass for Dinagyang will be taken care of by the Iloilo Dinagyang Foundation Inc.
3. The Iloilo Bloggers will have 2 IDs. One Media/Events ID and one official ID and the layout will be taken care of by Marcos.
4. Junelle and Junnjun were the final representatives for the Tibiao Media Tour. They went to Tibiao, Antique last weekend January 15th to 17th.
5. We will have a Kasadyahan Meeting on January 23rd and the Media Passes for Dinagyang are expected to be ready on this day. Location is TBA because the restaurants and cafes will not accept reservations due to the Kasadyahan celebrations. Bloggers from Manila are expected to attend as well as forumers from  Skyscraper City.
6. We are looking for bloggers or non-bloggers who could volunteer to take note of tourist spots here in Iloilo then map them at Google Maps. This was requested by Miss Janette Toral and Miss Aileen Apollo so that it will be easier for them and other tourists to find the gems of Iloilo.
7. We are also invited by Spa Riviera on February 7th to avail of their Free Spa Services at SM City Iloilo’s Activity Center. Please arrive early so we can be accommodated first.
8. Now that we are SEC registered we will finally reorganize/restructure the Iloilo Bloggers website. We will prioritize the IloiloBloggers.com website, it will be our main portal.

After Dinagyang we will focus on the different ways we can improve our organization and on how we can help Iloilo as well. We will talk more about this on our next meeting this Saturday, January 23rd during Kasadyahan. We hope more bloggers will attend. This organization as well as any other orgs will only thrive if all the members will cooperate and help each other. If anyone has questions or suggestions please feel free to approach any of the officers. Thank you!
