Day 20: Philippine Food Expo 2011

Nee and I dutifully did our rounds at the 10th Philippine Food Expo (http://www.philippinefoodexpo.com/), held once again at the World Trade Center. We first attended the seminar on Intellectual Property Rights, which was conducted by Mr. Marlo Carag of the IPO. Such a funny and engaging speaker! Not only did Nee and I had a more thorough understanding of the different categories of IPR, but we heard some interesting trivia. For instance, did you know that San Miguel Corp couldn't get Ginebra (the beverage company) trademarked? Which is why one doesn't see the word Genebra, but GSM instead, in their recent ads, since the latter is its rightful, official, legal name.

Afterward we went to check out the exhibitors. Lo and behold, we found the solution to our beverage problem!
