I’m getting weirder emails by the minute.  Just received
this message from “Be Not Afraid” movement on a symposium on “HOW
THE PEOPLE OF THE PHILIPPINES
WERE CHEATED IN THE  2004 ELECTIONS,” to be held
this Friday, August 5.  Details as follows:

• Time: August
  5, 2005; 9:00-11:00am
• Venue: BULWAGANG TANDANG SORA
  Institute of Social
  Work and Community Development (ISWCD)
  University of the Philippines
  Diliman, Quezon City

Check out http://www.888.ph for the movement’s website.  Judging from
the sidebar, I’m getting a sense of who’s sponsoring this stuff. 
But I reckon it’s an interesting discussion, so I’m posting it here.

• BE NOT AFRAID Movement

Co-Sponsors:

• Public Administration
  291 Class (under Prof. Edna Co),

The National Symposium is intended to provide information
on how the people of the Philippines were cheated in the 2004 Elections and
take a consensus-for-action from an assembly of the leaders and representatives
of institutions, organizations and movements, NGO’s,  civil society,
academe, business, labor groups,  religous, studentry, diplomats and other
stake holders for the Filipino people.

At
the end of the Symposium, the audience will

  were cheated in the 2004 elections;  how was it prepared, performed and
  detected; and
• Express their thoughts on how to develop the appropriate
  courses of action.
