Its that time of year again, when the new year...and the Chinese new year is extended for six nights of one the world's greatest pyromusical displays!
I'm a fan, despite calls from some sectors of society mindful of the release of toxic fumes and chemicals emitted on the explosion of fireworks. Yep, true. But for me, I will support banning street-fireworks on New Year's eve when the entire world is simultaneously lighting up fireworks everywhere...every street, every corner, every elsewhere. As opposed to 40 minutes divided in two sets, once a week, for just 6 days, in just one location...on the waters of Manila Bay, at a time when the hot winds of the city exits to the sea that puts natural attenuation of the atmosphere at work....
Anyway, we folks love entertainment...and the pyromusical display gets better every year, displaying increasing artistry year by year...
The 4th Philippine International Pyromusical Competition opened last February 16, 2013 and ended last Saturday, March 23, 2013. I only watched two events, missing some of the best parts I guess. For this year, the winners are:
Grand winner: United Kingdom
1st Runner up: Canada and China
2nd Runner up: Finland
I only watched Italy, the Netherlands and Canada...and of course our very own! enjoy...
