Metro Infanta expatriates, we need your help

Former Ambassador Rudy Arizala suggested we coordinate our efforts to oppose the Laiban Dam Projects. He further suggested finding coordinators at various states in the United States and Canada and other countries. Thus we seek your assistance. We ask the presidents and leaders of the various Metro Infanta organizations all over the world to work with us, rather on their own so that we may "speak with one voice and act as one," not as competitors.

Thus we ask the following known leaders of the following groups. If you are unable to help, please help us find someone who can. Those in bold have responded.

Known Organizations:
MIAMI (Metro Infanta Association of Michigan): Greg Sollestre and Mario Leodones
IQUSA (Infanta Quezon U.S.A. based in New Jersey): The Asis Family
MIRC (Metro Infanta Residents of California): Leo Villeno
Texas Infantahins: Gene Pallugna and Shelley Ortiz

Northern California: Joel Ruidera

Those who do not belong to any of the above, please let us know if you wish to organize in your own state and let us know your leaders.
