FAP Awardees Received the Awards after a long delay

The Film Academy of the Philippines (FAP) finally had the chance to give away the coveted Luna Awards to its chosen winners for the year 2007. The sit-down dinner for the guests and the awards night was held last Sunday, February 8, at the Mandarin Oriental Suites, Gateway Mall, Cubao.

FAP director general Leo Martinez told PEP that they had difficulty getting sponsors, which explains the delay of the awarding ceremony for the chosen winners.
