Because I believe that the freedom of expression is an inviolable right and its exercise is a fundamental component of a dynamic and democratic society, and that blogging is one of the the emerging platforms where citizens, or at least those with access to the technology, can exercise this right. Because I believe that bloggers are not immune from challenges that confront this fundamental right, among with other rights as citizens. Because I believe that the best form of confronting challenges is through solidarity by collective action. Because I believe in fostering a real sense of community among Filipino bloggers (not just a community of those who attend bloggers parties or PR events), and that forming an inclusive and democratic organization is one of the best ways of achieving this.
