    Just received it from an e-mail by a friend,anybody knows this? Baka may thread na nito dito,not quite sure pero suportahan na rin natin.



    Friends,
    Please check out the BBC-Newsweek World Challenge website:
    www.theworldchallenge.co.uk and vote for the Philippines' entry, Coconets.

    (Only one vote per person is allowed.)

    Coconets is produced by a Philippine company that was nominated and
    subsequently selected to be one of the 12 finalists for the BBC-Newsweek
    World Challenge contest. This is a search for the project which has
    contributed the greatest impact at a grassroots level.
    There will be a documentary about the Philippine coconut
    geotextile/coconet industry which will be shown on the BBC World cable
    channel several times between September and October (one broadcast will be
    on September 24th, 8:30 GMT). The finalists will be featured in a special
    issue of Newsweek coming out on August 29th.

    The World Challenge competition offers the possibility of tremendous
    exposure and publicity to the flourishing Philippine coconut geotextile
    industry and to our Philippine coconut fiber exporters.

    Please help campaign for more votes by forwarding this message to our
    other co-workers, and to your friends and relatives. Thank you very much
    in advance.

    "There are only two ways to live your life. One is though nothing is a
    miracle.
    The other is as though everything is a miracle. " - A. Einstein

    Yup, I voted last night.

    Talagang humahataw ang lowly coconut, dami nang pwedeng products, from coconet, to virgin coconut oil, to biodiesel, etc.

    I hope the coconut farmers benefit from the increasing demand for coco-products.
