Thursday, Dec. 6, 2007, Aristocrat Restaurant, Manila
Since I am the Commissioner of the International Modern Arnis Federation of the Philippines (IMAFP) for North America, I decided to pay a courtesy visit to the officers of the organization. See www.imafp.com for the organization website.
Because of his busy schedule as a practicing attorney as well Chairman for the IMAFP council, Atty. Salvador Demaisip suggested we meet at the world-famous Aristocrat Restaurant on Roxas Blvd. in Manila. The following members of the Council and IMAFP showed up at the meeting:
Atty. Salvador Demaisip – Chairman of IMAFP
Samuel “Bambit” Dulay – Senior Master of IMAFP
Godofredo Fajardo – IMAFP Commissioner for the Middle East, based in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia but home for the holidays.
Panny Nagen, a Modern Arnis guro who often doubles as logistics and security officer for IMAFP events.
