The outages occurred at least three times during the plenary sessions, forcing organizers to use the standby generators.Aside from the outages, delegates from the different business groups comprising the local Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry organizations in Mindanao felt uncomfortable with the humid condition inside the venue—the Stadium of North Eastern Mindanao State University.“It would have been nice if there was no power interruption.
Pimentel, however, was grateful that the provincial government and the school administration came to the rescue by providing the standby generators so as not to disrupt the discussions during the plenary sessions.He also took the mishaps as a sign of the local host business group’s resiliency to face unexpected adversity.Pimentel, the event head organizer, admitted that during the preparation he thought of giving up. “But I though I have a big moral responsibility,” he said.
