A Chinese New Year Photowalk

______________

Yes, tuloy na tuloy na yung Chinese New Year Photowalk. It will be on January 23 at Binondo, Manila. For the past 2 years, I’ve been shooting alone during the Chinese New Year Celebration in Binondo. I want to share with you guys the experience of this event. Haha. Ikot-ikot lang sa Binondo kung saan may lumitaw na Dragon at Lion Dance. Wala naman pasok ng 23 diba! haha

So again,

When: January 23, 2012, 10am 

Meeting Place: Plaza Binondo (the plaza in front of Binondo Church). Direction: From Lawton, you can ride a jeepney going to divisoria. :)

So yun. Bring your cameras with you (Point & Shoot, DSLRs, SLRs, etc.) or if you are just interested to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Sama na! :D

PM me for more info or questions. :)

Piso

______

The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) issued a new one (1) peso coin. The issuance of this newly designed one peso coin commemorates the 150th birth anniversary of the Philippines’ National Hero Dr. Jose Rizal which was celebrated last June 19, 2011. 

The face of the coin has the design of the portait of Dr. Jose Rizal and the markings, “150 years”, “1861-2011”, and “Republika ng Pilipinas”. Designed on the reverse side are the new BSP seal, “1-piso” and “2011”.

The new 1 peso coin is round, grayish and nickel-plated steel coin. It has the same size (24-millimeters in diameter) and weight (5.35 grams) as the old one (1) peso coin presently in circulation.

The Office of the President of the Philippines and the Monetary Board of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) have both approved the issuance of the new one (1) peso coin.
