PARIS, FRANCE - HILIGAYNON ASSOCIATION, a group of Filipinos situated in the most romantic part of the earth organized a soft-launching of the book KAPENG ARABO. The activity was held simultaneous with the regular gathering of the group on a Sunday February 1.
Desire Amojedo, from Cabanatuan Iloilo, spearheaded the occassion and brought forth "soup du jour" to which she cheerfully admitted "eating has always been the best part of our group's every activity.
Amojedo related that the group heard about the book from Cez Sanchez, a member based in Athens, Greece, who brought along a copy from the Philippines. "She has very favorable opinion about the book, and she believes that all OFWs and Pinoy abroad, whether in the Arabian territory (as the title suggests) or not should read it," she said.

"We consider anything that can contribute to the improvement of our condition as a blessing, and so this work of another OFW that advocates productivity, unity and love for our country is such a welcome, and worthy of our support," Amojedo added.
Accordingly, the book is sold among members of the group with a principal objective of bringing the message of the author to as many OFWs in the region; and that any profit that maybe derived therein will be added to the group's fund to finance their charity projects.
