Together with the PEN-International Team of Dr. James DeCaro and Mr. Bill Clymer, the De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde PEN-Philippines Delegation and the Chinese Delegation of PEN-China went to Korea to participate in the 2009 PEN-KOREA Celebration and International Forum on September 15, 2009.
Two institutional partners in Korea forged ties to help in advancing the educational opportunities of Deaf people in Korea. The Korean Employment Promotion Agency for the Disabled (KEPAD) became a PEN affiliate in 2005 and soon after, the Korean Nazarene University (KNU) followed in 2007. Their partnership was sealed last September 15, 2009 that forged the alliance as PEN-Korea.
The Celebration was participated in by members of the Korean Government, faculty members and partners of KEPAD and KNU.
