Kinaray-a.com was invited as an observer to the Board of Trustees meeting of the Binirayan Foundation Inc. (BFI) held last Friday, 11 April 2008 at the ANIAD Conference Room, New Capitol Bldg., San Jose, Antique. In the absence of Mr. Fridy Panaguiton, Ms. Jigsz Nietes-Satapornvanit (BOD member) attended the meeting to represent K.com, Inc. The meeting was chaired by Her Excellency Governor Sally Perez and attended by BFI’s board members and officers. BFI’s mandate is to promote Antique’s culture and arts through various initiatives, one of which is the annual Binirayan Festival. According to Alex de los Santos, BFI’s Executive Director, K.com was invited along with a couple of other organizations who have similar vision, mission and goals as BFI, to be considered for membership. He will be sending a formal letter of invitation to K.com to join BFI as a member. This is a positive development, proof that the existence of Kinaray-a.com, an NGO working towards promoting Antique culture and uniting Antiquenos all over the world, is being recognized in the province. During the meeting the body was informed that Kinaray-a.com is helping in the dissemination of information and publicity related to this year’s Binirayan Festival, and that the readers (and listeners of Kinaray-a music) are not only within the Philippines but also Antiquenos, Kinaray-a speakers and friends from many parts of the world.
