16th NARCE (Aug 2007)

PAGASA Members at the 2007 National Retailers Conference & Exhibition are fascinated by the new print technology from Korea, a machine which can print anything on any surface instantly. Fil-Canadian exhibitor Edward Liangco (2nd from left) illustrates to PAGASA Dir. Robert Ang-Topline, Member Freddie Gravador-Simplicity Ministop (in green) and Dir. Edgar Robes-Susanamart.
