This year, traditional media and new media are working together for a more comprehensive coverage of the 2010 Philippine Elections.  Elections are usually a critical time in the Philippines.  In the past, many suspicious activities have been going on and let’s just say, it’s a little bit chaotic.  We all hope that this year’s elections would go as smoothly and as peacefully as possible.

These will live stream up-to-date news as it happens.  Bookmark the following websites:
