KayaMoPinoy.com will TRY to co-sponsor a live stream for Manny Pacquiao vs Joshua Clottey fight, if our broadband provider will give the go signal. We know how hard it is to look for a live video online stream links, and if you’re lucky to find the them, just pray hard that there still bandwidth enough for you to enjoy the fight.
The Pacquiao-Clottey clash will be held on March 13 at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Tickets are priced between $700 (ringside) and $50. For those who can’t go to the famous Dallas Cowboys Stadium, the fight will be telecast live by HBO on pay-per -view.
And for those who can’t view the fight on cable and local televisions, the next alternative is to watch the fight online! We’ve experienced in Pacquiao’s previous fight that watching the fight online is sometimes much updated than some cable providers.

Why Attend the Mega Balik-bayan Expo and Business Congress?
The Balikbayan and OFW’s contribute to the country’s growth remittance. Money sent by OFW’s back to the Philippines is a major factor in the country’s economy, amounting to more than US$10 billion in 2005. This makes the country the fourth largest recipient of foreign remittances behind India, China, and Mexico. the amount represents 13.5% of the Philippines’ GDP, the largest in proportion to the domestic economy among the four countries mentioned.
Overseas Filipinos sent back $14.4 billion in remittances to the Philippines in 2007, up from the $13 billion in 2006.
The Philippines has estimated an inflow of $15.9 billion worth of remittances in 2008.
This economic back draft created Mega Balikbayan Expo and OFW Business Congress (MBEX) in order to make Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) into Overseas Filipino Investors (OFI), a term coined by President Gloria-Arroyo, which means that besides remittance OFW must now be developed to know how to invest in property, business and other investment vehicles the earnings in order to make their sacrifice working abroad impact positively on their personal live and the country as a whole.
Since majority of the Balikbayans and OFWs return to the country during December, MBEX will provide them the opportunity to learn and select properties, business and investment tools available in the market using the most effective person-to-person tool conference and exhibition.
