Now on its 53rd year as the country’s national association of newspapers, the Philippine Press Institute (PPI) is holding its 21st National Press Forum on May 24-26 in Manila.

Themed “Asean@50: Beyond the Headlines,” the event coincides with the regional organization’s golden anniversary. The Philippines holds this year’s chairmanship of Asean.

“Today, at 50, Asean’s decades-long existence should prompt some earnest reflection on several fronts. How far has it gone in achieving its goals? How much of its multi-pronged vision for the 625 million-strong regional bloc is now undeniably a reality?” says PPI in its concept note explaining the rationale behind this year’s theme.

The much anticipated PPI forum will kick off on May 24 with a general assembly and meeting of PPI member-newspapers. (ppi)
