“Women hold up half the sky.”
— ancient Chinese proverb
Aung San Suu Kyi. Lady Gaga. Hilary Clinton. Wangari Maathai. Emily Abrera. In case you haven’t noticed, women have become a more powerful force in the world today. More than merely influencing business, politics, science and entertainment, they’re taking the lead in their respective industries and changing the world.
In celebration of women leaders, and to facilitate a grand exchange of ideas among women in Asia, Singapore-based marketing specialist company Arc Media Global is holding the “Women at the Top 2012″ conference on February 23-24, 2012

We thought we were in the wrong place. Mike invited us to the launch of a graphic novel he wrote, a re-emagining of the Ilocano epic “Biag ni Lam-Ang”. But when we got to the Collective (Malugay St., Makati City), all we could find was a party for some movie. Obviously, I should learn to look at my e-mail attachments.
The two bouncers at the entrance looked amused at my confusion. Mike had to come by and ask them to let us in.
It was a victory party for Pinta*kasi, the movie that won the New Wave Best Indie Film award at the recent Metro Manila Filmfest. There was supposed to be a launch of sorts for the graphic novel “The Lam-Ang Experiment” which was created by the same company Creative Media. “Lam-Ang” was a pet project of Ilocos governor Imee Marcos.

I got to the launch of Kajo Baldisimo and Budjette Tan’s “Trese 4: Last Seen After Midnight” really, really late. I missed the Q&A. But when I got there the line for the book signing was so long…
… I decided, upon Y’s suggestion, to join them for dinner first and take care of some work stuff, then come back later. Read more…
