Vote for Pinoy PWAs for the finals at the Anan Autistic Talent Gala 2015

AnAn Poster

The AnAn International Education Foundation Hong Kong launched an annual musical contest for persons with autism in Asia in 2014 with the aim of providing opportunities for persons with autism to participate in social functions, to mingle and share with other members of society, to show their talents in public, and build up their self-confidence. The winners of the first round competition will be invited to join Anan Autistic Talent Gala 2015 Finals in Hong Kong in December 2015.

As the preliminary applications closed last month, let us show our support for ASP performers who made the first cut. To cast a valid vote, please, click the name of the PWA -- which leads to a link (the page is in Chinese). Click "Like" and click "Vote."

1) Marcus Palomares. From the early days of ASP Diliman, we have watched Macky (as he is known in ASP circles) blossom as a musician. He recently returned from a trip to Korea where he performed in an international music festival. Please like Marcus' entry here.

2) Thara Marie Santiago. As half of the ASP Dreamgirls, Thara is no stranger to representing her country in international competitions. She has performed at the Malacanan Palace, SM MOA Arena and other venues, big and small. Please like Thara's entry here.
