+1, describes our PH situation quite well. Local Start-up or Dev Cons can
readily get private sponsorships, "Issues" fora rarely, if ever. Perhaps
Start-up and Dev are seen as "positive", whereas issues are perceived as
"boring" until something really bad comes down the road (usually "under the
radar") resulting in a public uproar.
