The convenience and safely travel of our participants who are attending the Summer Conference have been a primordial concern of the Organizing Committee. In view of this, we have prepared some guidelines on how to go to the conference venue.

If coming from Manila area (Lawton or Cubao):

1. Take a bus going to Batangas City pier, preferably those with signboard via CALABARZON so that the bus will use the STAR tollway and exit at Lipa City, reducing travel time to approximately 2 - 2.5 hours (still depends on the traffic condition of the ongoing construction at grade level of the skyway). Fare is about PhP 170.00 - 180.00.

If driving a car or car pooling, take the SLEX and then STAR tollway straight to Batangas City. To avoid the "Bats City" traffic rush, prior to entering the city proper, take a right turn to Bauan highway going to the pier.

If coming from CALABARZON area:

At Turbina, take a bus going to Batangas City pier, preferably those with signboard via CALABARZON so that the bus will use the STAR tollway and exit at Lipa City. Travel time is around 1 hour and fare is approximately PhP 100.00.

3. Once in Calapan Pier, ride a tricycle going to El Pueblo Rhizort (boundary of Balite & Mahal na Pangalan) and fare is PhP 50-60.00 per person. Travel time is approximately 15 minutes.
