Towards The Success Of I-Café Business In The Philippines
In December 2005, reacting on the various complaints received from parents and school administrators, the municipal government of Imus, Cavite thought of closing down the various internet cafes in the municipality. In a meeting conducted by then municipal administrator Gabriel David, he stressed the need for the creation of an internet café association to look after the interest of the internet café operators in the municipality. Consultative and organizational meetings were held from January to February 2006. By March 2006, it has been formally registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a non-stock, non-profit professional organization.
