WHEN CREDIT IS DUE...
With just a year of existence, BISEAN made a handful of blog posts that stirred the norms and common "beliefs".
You won’t believe how many emails we got for posting lists challenging the familiar – from the Malaysians and their mountains, from the Filipinos and their malls, etc.
I was channel surfing my satellite TV and checking out the region’s local networks the other day. I do this every weekend so I would know what’s happening around our paradise.
And guess what I’ve found?
There’s this Philippine network airing a campaign for the New7Wonders of the World. Urging the whole country to vote for their local “wonders” to be included in the World list…hmmm, o’right *frowns*
I want the credit.
BISEAN is the first AND ONLY Southeast Asian blog to call for this campaign.
When BISEAN was calling all bloggers in the region to support the Angkor last year NOBODY cared. We were also the first blog in the region to campaign the New7Wonders of Nature.
Now that this Network found a “potential” prize – they all suddenly all out campaigning?
ABS-CBN…where were you when the original New7Wonders was on full swing?
A "world-class" network that isn't familiar about this global campaign since 1999?
None of the Philippine wonders was even on the list. There wasn’t even a mention of the campaign in the entire Philippine blogosphere. Why the sudden interest?
Whoever’s running your network blog saw MY blog -- that’s for sure. BISEAN is the first blog who heed the call to Filipino bloggers.
