CSC Forum overstretched my vocal chords!

Yesterday (Nov. 14th) I was privileged to be one of the speakers and panelists of the forum: "Challenges in the Effective Administration of Local Economic Enterprises" sponsored by the Civil Service Commission. It was quite a fruitful one but too taxing for me as I have to shuttle from Punta Villa Resort where I made an almost three hours- presentation on Module 1 of the Generic Procurement Manuals before the 200 plus participants of our last batch of procurement training - to Grand Hotel, the venue of the forum. I had only about an hour's rest between two engagements. That must have aggravated my already strained vocal chords, hence, the consequence of a hoarse voice and occasional outburst of dry cough. No regrets, anyway.

My talk was about funding sources and allocation of funds for economic enterprises owned by LGUs. Details of which will be posted next time I get enough time to write. Meanwhile, I need to be back to Punta Villa for a lecture on Alternative Modes of Procurement for Goods.
