A few days ago I started Batasayti, a personal blog/project which aims to compile material on information technology (IT) law and policy in the Philippines and in other Asian countries. Hopefully, the blog in time will be of good use to IT practitioners, law students, and others. If you support this project, please link to the blog using the text “information technology law Philippines”. By doing so, you will help increase the searchability of the information contained there. You may also point out material which you feel should be included in the compilation. I will add them ASAP. Thanks ahead for the help.
