Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:20:14): if no one will oppose by tonight, i'll assume it's ok with everyone else as well... i've posted that more than a week ago...

Exec8 (17/05/2008 20:21:44): i hope you have enough manpower in that exhibit

Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:22:17): you're going right?

Exec8 (17/05/2008 20:23:20): I hope I could come but I have a tight sched in the next two months

Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:24:05): eugene, how about you?

Exec8 (17/05/2008 20:25:09): I'm quite concerned. I've informed more participants but they're still offline.

Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:25:29): last time dba we also started late

Exec8 (17/05/2008 20:27:00): last time when I was joined in at 8:30 there were about 6 i think and there was an active discussion

Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:28:53): we had months of months of pent up discussion last time

Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:29:02): *of months

Seav (17/05/2008 20:31:11): no trips for me

Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:31:52): what if it's free?

Seav (17/05/2008 20:32:13): it's a bit unlikely still

Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:37:13): any of you guys have any objections if we approach the wpinas folks? they might be able to sponsor planefares and registration... we could partner with the booth...

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 20:37:48): no objections

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 20:38:17): but I'm not really optimistic about that

Nino Gonzales (17/05/2008 20:42:29): well, at least we can try

Exec8 (17/05/2008 20:42:41): me too

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 20:43:52): so far, compared to last week, this discussion is dead do you guys want to discuss something that needs to be done

Yahoo! Messenger (17/05/2008 21:06:35): Sky Harbor has joined the conference.

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:06:44): finally you're here

Exec8 (17/05/2008 21:07:04): No, thank you.

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:07:42): so any opinions about Tagalog translation standardisations in tlwiki?

Yahoo! Messenger (17/05/2008 21:07:52): Sky Harbor has joined the conference.

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:08:08): out of all the topics...that had to be discussed?

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:08:08): for those wondering about this, it's in http://tl.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:KAPE

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:08:14): it's a matter of personal preference

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:08:23): well since none has been discused here so far

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:08:40): nobody here is talking about anything much for quite an hour

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:08:45): except for Nino

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:08:50): and Exec8

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:08:59): but that like 30:00 ago

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:09:16): i want to finish the important things first, for one

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:09:24): go on

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:09:42): well, we ARE on a race here

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:10:06): against the Indonesians, isn't it

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:10:11): yeah

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:12:53): and if i am right, they are ahead

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:14:49): as far as i know, they already had their documents inspected

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:14:55): but translation isn't done

felipe_aira (17/05/2008 21:15:09): since they had it in Indonesian

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:15:49): well, we have a lesser capital requirement

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:15:54): are your pledges still valid?

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:16:58): depends on the bank that we open with

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:17:13): it can range from 20,000 to 50,000 minimum

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:17:48): i can go for either BDO or Landbank

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:17:53): both have advantages

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:18:33): well, i am thinking of people in far-flung provinces

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:19:21): checking account

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:19:39): i know they are, but we have to choose a bank that would be good for ALL members

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:19:45): there are many provinces without a BDO branch

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:20:25): there are still some provinces that do not have a branch

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:20:29): like marinduque

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:20:30): and batanes

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:20:47): you never know

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:20:57): and many provinces in mindanao too

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:22:34): well, we are thinking quite a bit into the future

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:23:12): it shouldn't be though that we would make an inconvenience for people who have no access to a BDO branch because it's in a major metropolitan area

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:23:15): it isn't

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:23:20): we have to prepare ALL the paperwork

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:24:58): and yes, we are in a race of sorts

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:25:08): because they also need to raise money

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:26:00): as i said, it would be quite difficult to do so

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:26:10): each bank has different requirements, for one

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:26:18): and whatever bank we choose, that's how much money we need

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:26:48): that reminds me...whatever bank we choose, we need to choose a branch

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:27:59): uh huh

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:28:07): we don't even have a city of incorporation

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:28:12): and i will NOT open at megamall

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:28:18): i fell out with that branch in 2006

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:29:04): long story...BDO Megamall B refused to issue me an international ATM card

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:29:09): so i moved to Harrison Plaza

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:29:45): but i am well-remembered by the staff

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:29:50): my first account was in that branch

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:30:19): it has to be the secretary

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:30:58): as far as i know

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:31:44): then we do it on a saturday

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:31:52): if all of you are willing to open with BDO

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:32:59): that reminds me...where are we incorporating?

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:34:47): makati?

Yahoo! Messenger (17/05/2008 21:35:52): Jojit fb has joined the conference.

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:36:34): i wouldn't know

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:36:42): remember, all incorporators have to be of legal age

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:37:58): so i'm out

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:38:28): as far as i know, an address was not demanded

Jojit fb (17/05/2008 21:39:54): I thought "City of Manila, Philippines" was enough.

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:40:03): so it would read: "...That the principal office of the corporation is located in the City of Manila, Metro Manila, Philippines;"

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:40:58): but who lives in manila?

Jojit fb (17/05/2008 21:41:03): I do

Jojit fb (17/05/2008 21:41:15): Paco to be exact

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:41:29): wherever we base our office, that is where we have to get the CTC, barangay clearance and business permit

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:41:38): exactly

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:41:46): CTC, barangay clearance and business permit

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:41:49): and TIN application

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:42:34): among other applications

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:43:14): i was thinking of an area with more or less a definitive set of barangays

Jojit fb (17/05/2008 21:43:29): like what?

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:43:33): not sure

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:43:39): because it would reflect in the address

Sky Harbor (17/05/2008 21:44:22): but you at least know what barangay you reside in?
