Going, going, gone -- from HK rich to RP poor - INQUIRER.net, Philippine News for Filipinos: "MANILA, Philippines -- FROM HK$10,000 BIRTHDAY cards to cruises to Antarctica.
These were some of the items offered in a benefit auction that helped a Hong Kong charity raise nearly P30 million in just one night for slum dwellers in the Philippines.
The well-dressed crowd that bid for the items, members and supporters of International Care Ministries (ICM) who gathered at the JW Marriott Hotel on Nov. 15, raised HK$5.1 million (P28 million) for the very poor living in the slums of Negros, Bohol and General Santos City."
