Together with my good friend and fellow Filipino blogger, Juned Sonido, we will deliver a joint presentation at this milestone event. This wonderful opportunity is thanks to Mozilla’s Gen Kanai, who gave our names to the conference organizers. Mozilla was our co-presentor at WordCamp Philippines 2009.

Along with other representatives of their respective Asian countries, Juned will give a primer on the Philippine blogosphere, and thereby provide a picture of how active Filipino bloggers have been vis-à-vis the East Asian region. I will talk about a particular activity that has been close to my heart ever since the inception of the Mindanao Bloggers Community: Peace Initiatives through Blogging.

BlogFest.Asia will run from 5 to 8 November 2009, in Hong Kong. Many Asian countries are expected to be represented by their contingent of bloggers and resource speakers. I sure hope there’ll be more Filipinos attending the event!
