“Ang Bayan sa Mata ng Kabataan”: THE PPCRV BINAN YOUTH FORUM 2010

This coming March 11, 2010, Thursday, Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV) of Biñan Laguna will be having a Youth Forum entitled “Ang Bayan sa Mata ng Kabataan”. The activity is in line also with the voter’s education activities of PPC-RV Biñan which aims to help the faithful especially the first time voters and our young people to develop an “informed and principled stand” on various issues of the country/society in view of the coming Elections.

For the said forum, the group was able to invite His Excellency, Most Rev. Bishop Deogracias Iñiguez as the Main Guest Speaker. Bishop Iñiguez is the current Bishop of the Diocese of Caloocan and concurrently the Director for Public Affairs of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP). The forum will be held at the St. Theodore Hall of St. Michael’s College from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. During the forum we also invited the local COMELEC to present the new election process including the demonstration on the Precinct Count Optical Scan or popularly known as the PCOS Machine for the participants to have a better appreciation of the new process and on the machine itself.
