I just checked out the the official voting site today and good news for the Philippines, here are the latest official ranks of our nominees:
#1 Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park
#4 Chocolate Hills
#5 Tubbataha Reef
#10 Mayon Volcano
All our four nominees have been shortlisted in the Top 77.
According to the website:
Voting for nominees will continue through July 7, 2009. Then the New7Wonders of Nature Panel of Experts, under the leadership of Prof. Federico Mayor, former Director-General of UNESCO, will review the top 77 nominees and choose the 21 finalists, to be announced on 21 July 2009. These finalists will then be put to popular vote.
I hope we get to keep the good ranks and that all four of them land on the top 7!
