It was literally a Powerpoint presentation printed on tarpaulin. The template looked generic as well. Worst, it was too wordy. If it was a book, they could just place a book there for people to look at, browse, or read. But hell no. If people would want to read the content of those tarps, they would rather buy the book, read online whenever and wherever they are comfortable.

That is common sense if not basic rule in mounting exhibits. The next time you do something like this, can you please hire people who knows what to do -  and do it the right way. NAGKAKAINTINDIHAN BA TAYO?

Next time, try to create something that can be classified as FACTS AT A GLANCE! And there is such as thing as, FOR MORE INFO PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE!
