Congratulations to the winners of the Philippine Schools Cyberfair 2007: Empower and Unite!
Our sincerest thanks to Microsoft Philippines for being our venue sponsor during the awards ceremony this morning.
What makes this competition unique and tough at the same time is that the students' work should tell a story about their community. In addition, for the Philippines competition, an entry must have an English and Filipino edition of their site.
