You plan to move to the Philippines? Wollen Sie auf den Philippinen leben?

There are REALLY TONS of websites telling us how, why, maybe why not and when you'll be able to move to the Philippines. I only love to tell and explain some things "between the lines". Enjoy reading, be informed, have fun and be entertained too!

Ja, es gibt tonnenweise Webseiten, die Ihnen sagen wie, warum, vielleicht warum nicht und wann Sie am besten auf die Philippinen auswandern könnten. Ich möchte Ihnen in Zukunft "zwischen den Zeilen" einige zusätzlichen Dinge berichten und erzählen. Viel Spass beim Lesen und Gute Unterhaltung!

The kickoff program was an exciting showcase of literature turned into a performing art, and it worked well in the transition; the audience appreciative of the performances. Present during the launch event were National Artist for Film and Broadcast Arts Ricky Lee, Maria Karina Bolasco, and Milflores publisher Andrea Pasion-Flores. Exec. Director Charisse Tugade provided the inspirational words, recounting the Board’s recent accomplishments and how they’re staying true to the mission vision.
