The Philippine chapter has not provided an official endorsement (since most
are neutral or split) . But everybody agrees that no one is opposing your
bid. We made an informal survey on Facebook.
My personal preference is YES for Hong Kong since we could avail the air
promos of Air Asia, Cebu Pacific and get cheap accommodations as well.
The close proximity would be an advantage for our chapter.
