If Lutzow get Manny Pacquiao to endorse, I'm sure the project will get a lot of traction  Grin Grin
Good luck, you're not likely to get any politician to openly or publicly endorse any coin. There once was a move about a year or two ago ... not much happened except there was a bill. Let me look for it, maybe you can try contacting that particular representative (congress I think.)

Representative Kimi Cojuangco, a member of the Filipino House of Representatives, is pushing for an “e-Peso,” the Phil Star reports. House Bill 4914 would create the “e-Peso” as an online medium of exchange for Filipinos. The proposed bill would have the Filipino Central Bank research Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and decide what the best course of action would be. The e-Peso would be officially granted electronic legal tender status, according to Cojuangco: What exists is a patchwork of methods using traditional credit systems, which act in place of money on the Internet. The E-peso is the electronic equivalent to the paper peso.

This was in 2014.

E-peso were pushed to get on the news because e-peso was developed to make a business. Compared with this PSB project, I believe this one is different. I agree, to cryptodv, maybe a world known icon like manny(but not because he is a senator now) could help this project on its promotions not only in the Philippines but worldwide. I would love to see Manny or the Black Eyed Peas on PSB ads in the future. I believe APL will support this project because he likes helping his "Kababayans".. Just imagine, black eyed peas singing a jingle for PSB advertisement.

Anyways.. I understand that advertising campaigns for PSB is not yet a priority... I'm just saying, Manny or APL and the Black Eyed Peas' name could bring PSB to the moon.. And everybody will be happy..

But of course, first things first. Devs should deliver their promises first before we get over excite ourselves.
