Events: The 5th Philippine International Literary Festival and Book Industry Summit


A few more days before Winter Komikon 2014 and there is still a big event that is being held before it. The 5th Philppine International Literary and Book Industry Summit (PILF-BIS) was organized by the National Book Development Board. The main theme for this event is The Pressing Issue: Sustainable Publishing Amid ASEAN Integration.

There are a lot of events that will be held at PILF-BIS which will occur from November 12-14, 2014 at the Bayanihan Center, Pioneer Street, Pasig City. Entrance fee will be Php. 150 per day so its a total of Php. 450 for the whole event. But don't worry since this event is free for students and teachers. Just be sure to present a valid I.D. A 20% discount is also given to group registration of more than 10. The senior citizen's discount is also applicable.

A lot of local publishers will be joining this event such as Visprint, Inc.


Thus, like in Aklatan last year, we are given different schedules of book signings and remarkable 4 book launches. That includes Tabi Po 2 by Mervin Malonzo and Mythspace by Chikiamco, Koi, Quiroga, Gregorio, Dimagiba, Chua, and Sinaban. 



Visprint will also hold a sale for all of their books except for those that are going to be launched.


This is a nice side event for comic lovers before the grand event of Komikon 2014. Try to check out this event first.
