for everyone
The Samahang Kartunista ng Pilipinas (SKP) led by their president Boboy Yonzon, met with officials of the NPC’s Special Projects Committee last Friday (June 27) to present plans for the first “NPC-SKP Cartoon Competition: The Boytogs (Boy Togonon) Awards.” 

The contest is scheduled to formally start on July 13, 2008/Sunday at the Plaridel Hall of the NPC Building in Intramuros, Manila. This was timed to coincide with the launching of the SKP's “Roster Book”, a paperback published by the 30-year-old organization which showcases a compilation of cartoon sketches of its officers and members.

Nice to see this. Once or twice, I sat down in a meeting with SKP members upon the invitation of Inquirer's Jess Abrera. I was then doing the "NIna F." strips for the feminist magazine LAYA Feminist Quarterly..

I was actually intimidated by the fact that the group was male dominated. (That's history...hehe.)

Hi baguiowriter. You are so correct about the number of males in the group. Although it is more correct to say that there are really more male cartoonists and comics illustrators than female. Consequently, ayun. Wag ka na ma-intimidate, we have considerably lessen the drinking, the smoking, and the green jokes during our meetings. Teka, parang boring yata. Hehe.

Roniel, my fault. I got my skeds mixed. July 12 pala is the schedule of the cartoon forum of AMIC at UST with Mr. John Lent and a number of Asean cartoonists. Since we would them to be at our event, we might have to move the launch of the book and the contest to July 11 or 13. Awfully sorry for this.

This is more than less set. The formal launch of the SKP Roster Book plus the launch of the NPC-SKP Cartoon Competition is set on July 11 at 2pm to 5pm at the NPC Bulwagang Plaridel. The internationally renowned comics and cartoons scholar John Lent will grace the occasion.
