“The Illusive search for MAGIKERONG PILIPINO”.

MAGIC breaks all barriers of race, religion, age & status. Years from now, people will always remember the experience.

This coming September, Virginia Food Inc. in cooperation with Mandaue Chamber of Commerce will hold the first-ever invitational search for the best open-stage magician in the Philippines, entitled “The Illusive search for MAGIKERONG PILIPINO”.

We are launching this search to give avenue to all Filipinos who have the passion about magic & to showcase Filipino talent at its best aside from the usual singing & dancing. There will be a series of elimination during the months of August & September in different parts of the country for the top 12 magicians. The culminating event will be held in Manila on Sept. 30, 2010.

For the Cebu leg, we will have the elimination on September 2 in a closed-door venue then have the finals on September 3 (Friday) at Ayala Center Cebu. Junior, adult & merlin magicians with experiences on close-up, illusion, stage, children or comedy magic acts are all welcome to join this competition.

Driving As One ... 2010 One Cebu Inter Auto Club Meet

The Cebu Inter Car Club Meet will be participated in by 21 Car Clubsfrom around Cebu (with at least over 600 members from different car groups), as well as 14 individual brand new Car Dealerships. Participating Car Clubs will be showcasing their cars within their booths together with other automotive-related displays. We will also have various inter-club programs to build fellowship amongst club members, as well as activities crowd-drawing activities in conjunction with the ongoing One Cebu Expo at that time. Concessionaires, Event Sponsors, and various Auto-related companies who will participate will be provided with their very own booths at the event site.

Because of the success of our 2008 and 2009 events, the Mandaue Chamber of Commerce has made this one of its main events of the Mandaue Business Month. With this, we hope to include the participation of all the local car dealers and establish this event as the major Cebu auto-related event every year.

We are also a partner organization of PBSP through its “Balik-Baterya Program”, and are donating over 150 Car ULABS(Used Lead Acid Batteries) during the said event. Also, the car clubs individually conduct their own tree planting and civic-related activities such as feeding programs, and the like. Also, under our head organization, the Federation of Auto Clubs Cebu, we already have an annual tree planting event and plan to revisit the site to check on its sustainability. We have also recently conducted a feeding for under-privileged children at Labangon Elementary School this month.

There will be a motorcade of not less than 50 cars from the clubs that will be participating, which will be about 8 kilometers long around the Mandaue City District on August 13, 2010 to help promote the event. We are not only promoting the event as a car club meet, but also promoting all the brand new cars to be displayed by the local car dealers as well as the opportunity to test drive the cars around CICC and reclamation area.

The Sustainable Business Revolution: A CALL TO ACTION!

What is this all about?

Experts agree that making the shift to a sustainable business economy is critical to the future of the Philippines and the world. Without making that leap, the environment we so cherish will continue to deteriorate at an increasingly rapid pace, which in turn will affect the quality of life for all of us. by taking on the challenge of “Becoming Sustainable”, we as a business community can reverse that trend and truly create a lasting legacy of sustainable long term growth for business, our community and the natural world around us.

Making that happen requires a “revolution” both in thinking and in action on the part of business leaders throughout the world. In this first of a series of summits, the Mandaue Chamber of Commerce and Industry will be hosting in 2010 and 2011, you as an attendee will have a unique opportunity to join that revolution and build a sustainable business legacy or your company, you community, and our country.
