Pinoy Coconut Geotextile - Finalist in BBC's World
Challenge
Fellow Pinoys,
Did you know that the Philippines' coconut
geotextile (a.k.a. coconet) for soil erosion control has been
chosen as one of the 12 finalists in Newsweek and
BBC's (British Broadcasting Corporation)
World's World
Challenge?
The World Challenge is basically a competition/ search
designed at identifying groups or individuals all over
the world whose projects have contributed great
impact at grass roots level.
A documentary about Philippine Coconut geotextile or
coconet industry will be shown on the BBC World
cable channel on September 24 around 8:30 GMT and
will also be featured in the August 29 special issue of
Newsweek.
"The World Challenge" already offers a tremendous
exposure and publicity to our flourishing Philippine
coconut geotextile industry and to our Philippine
coconut fiber exporters. But it would be great pride
for our country, which has been getting very bad
publicity nowadays, to win this prestigious
competition.
To vote, please open www.theworldchallenge.co.uk
and click the picture of Philippine coconet.
Please help us campaign for more voters by
forwarding this message to your co-worker,
friends and relatives.
Ipakita natin sa buong mundo na what we are capable of. Mabuhay ang Pinoy! . . .
Thanks!
