In Alfred A. Yuson's latest article (PhilSTAR 10/25/2004), he wrote that Oct. 15 used to be World Poetry Day and that it was changed by some unknown entity to March.



Well, that unknown entity happens to be the UN Society of Writers and that the World Poetry Day takes place during the week of 21 March as proclaimed by the 30th session of UNESCO General Conference in 1999.



If Yuson is such a known entity, why don't he just write a letter to the UN Society of Writers or UNESCO to change back the World Poetry Day from March 21 to October 15?



Perhaps the unknown entity might consider known entity's request so that the rest of Philippine's known entities can celebrate World Poetry Day on Oct. 15



Duh!
