(Cagayan de Oro City, Mindanao, Philippines – October 20, 2009) – Nearly 300 bloggers from all over Mindanao will converge in Cagayan de Oro City on October 24, 2009 for the much-awaited Mindanao Bloggers Summit 3, an annual gathering of the island’s bloggers or new media practitioners.
MBS 3, which will be a whole-day affair on October 24, 2009 at Pearlmont Inn, Limketkai Drive, CDO, will banner the theme “Mindanao: Bag-Uhon Ang Panan-aw.”
“Mindanao has its share of problems, we will not deny that. However, which area in the world doesn’t? Mindanao has so many strengths as well and we want to showcase these. From the undeniably amazing tourist spots to colourful and interesting cultures and tribes to diverse flora and fauna to the truly warm and friendly people, Mindanao is the home of everything fascinating or in bloggers’ lingo – bloggable,” shares Jovelyn “Chiq” Montes, president of CDO Bloggers.
