The Philippines is made up of 7,107 islands. The capital of the country is Manila. It is the third largest English speaking country in the world. It has a rich history of Asian, European, and American influences. From a long history of Western colonial rule, interspersed with Chinese and Japanese trade relations evolved a people of a unique blend in appearance and culture. For the hotel accommodations during this event, we have partnered with The Peninsula Manila. The Peninsula Manila is a five star hotel located in the heart of Makati, Manila's business and financial district. The registration fee for the event is as follows: (a) US$515.00 per delegate inclusive of Philippine bank charges for international transfers and all activities from Thursday, 18 March 2010, up to Sunday, 21 March 2010, except for green fees for those who would be playing golf; and (b) US$465.00 per guest inclusive of Philippine bank charges for international transfers and all activities from Thursday, 18 March 2010, up to Sunday, 21 March 2010, except for green fees for those who would be playing golf.
