The Creator

Behind ourphilippines.tv is its creator, fervent traveler Michael Marasigan, who is considered one of the country’s online journalism innovators. Marasigan went “online” in 1995 when he pioneered BusinessWorld Online (www.bworldonline.com) shortly after he helped establish the newspaper. This was one of the first online newspapers in the world, making him the first online editor in the Philippines. In 2004, he also ventured into television by becoming an independent producer for the Living Asia Channel where he came out with travelogues. Travel and tourism, after all, has always been his passion. Finally, in 2005, he set up his communications company, InformationArchitects, Inc. (InfoArc), which gave birth to ourphilippines.tv in 2008.

Manila Bulletin

MANILA, Philippines — Time travels so fast or so slowly that I personally think some traditions should not go with it in the same speed. We have observed the growth of living and non-living things. For example, some rice fields have been converted into residential areas. Man effects this change. Nature is also capable of bringing about change, and together with man sometimes change becomes advantageous. At other times, disastrous.
