An Interview with General Santos City Mayor Pedro Acharon, jr
Written on Wednesday, October 29th, 2008 at 1:30 pm | by The Jester-in-ExileReminder: Do continue sending your votes for your 2010 candidates. Also, do spread the word.
Last October 25, 2008, during the fellowship night of the Second Mindanao Bloggers Summit, the jester-in-exile was able to interview General Santos City mayor Pedro “Jun” Acharon, jr. on a number of diverse matters.
Unfortunately, only two abbreviated videos survived due to technical errors. Here they are.
(Full account of the jester-in-exile’s personal experience here.)
I will amplify on the interview later.
