Boto Mo, Ipatrol Mo: Ako Ang Simula in CDO

July 30, 2009, Wednesday, CDObloggers were invited by Juvie Galvie from ABS-CBN to be part of "Boto Mo, Ipatrol Mo: Ako Ang Simula" campaign which was held at ABS-CBN compounnd in Bulua, Cagayan de Oro City. The campaign wants to encourage all youth to register, practice their rights to vote and help make a difference on our government. My fellow bloggers who arrived early said that there were many activities happened earlier. The campaign started early in the morning however I already arrive very late because of work that is why I only got the chance to witness the live streaming of TV Patrol.
