It's an overwhelming vote for both veteran showbiz writer-reporters Fernan de Guzman and Mell Navarro as president and vice president, respectively, of The Philippine Movie Press Club, Inc. (PMPC) for the year 2023.
The successful face-to-face election took place on January 13, 2023, at the PMPC headquarters in Quezon City.
De Guzman and Navarro are joined by the new set of officers and board members, namely: Jimi Escala (Secretary), Mildred Bacud (Assistant Secretary), Boy Romero (Treasurer), Lourdes Fabian (Assistant Treasurer), Eric Borromeo (Auditor), Leony Garcia and Glen Sibonga (Public Relations Officers); with Joe Barrameda, Roldan Castro, Rodel Fernando, John Fontanilla, Rommel Placente, and Francis Simeon as board members.
Founded in the late 1960s, the PMPC is known as the pioneer group of entertainment press in Philippine showbusiness. It is currently composed of entertainment columnists and editors from various media outlets such as newspapers, magazines, radio showbiz talk shows, and online blog sites.
The organization behind the staging of the annual Star Awards for Movies, Music and Television, the star-studded and much-awaited showbiz events in the country, the PMPC also holds various events such as medical missions for the entertainment press and acting workshops for newbie actors and actresses, among others.
The newly elected PMPC administration is set to embark on new meaningful projects and collaborations with other organizations.
