No Paywalls or Pop-Ups, Just Pleasure

If you've been checking out multiple pubs online for your news fix, you know all about the paywall which stops you from accessing the rest of the content after you've reach your limit for the month. To continue, you have to buy a subscription.

Then there are those annoying online ads that pop up or clutter your screen, interrupting your reading or requiring you to scroll down repeatedly before you can see the rest of the story.

Well, with Positively Filipino, you will not have any of these. What you get is plain, pleasurable, uninterrupted reading. And all we ask in return is for you to spread the word -- share the link to the magazine -- so our global barangay of readers and contributing writers will get bigger and livelier.

Occasionally we will ask you to share your thoughts, the better for us to know you more. And we welcome story contributions (subject to topic approval and our editorial standards; send query to PFeditor@yahoo.com).

As we begin our 8th year of publication, we hope that 2021 will be another year of sharing and caring in our uniquely Positively Filipino way.
