Scripts for Balitang Europe (BEU)

Since September 2005 I have been a 'Balitang Europe' Correspondent for ABS-CBN's The Filipino Channel which is broadcast every Sunday on TFC and on ANC across Europe and the world.  I normally have one, sometimes two reports on goings-on in the Filipino community in the UK.
 
Since going freelance in June 2006, I have begun editing a community newspaper-magazine (newsmag) called 'EuroFilipino Journal' which aims to bring the best of Filipino writings in the UK and elsewhere on matters Filipino.
 
In order to complete the triangle of what is called 'tri-media' of television, radio and print media, I have also set up Radio Filipino with Labour Attache Vic Ablan and Philippine Nurses Association President Mike Duque.  We started broadcasting in July 2006 for two hours every Thursday night on www.voiceofafricaradio.com from 10pm-12midnight. 
 
Now Radio Filipino is set up on the internet, with technical expertise provided by Mike Duque, and we can be heard 24/7 on www.pinoyfm.net.
