You Never Know Who'll You'll Run Into @ CommunicAsia 2009


Obama look alike photo Secret meetings... a hushed flight plan... the Mabuhay Satellite Corporation booth at CommunicAsia 2009... Michael Fleck of Global Vision (and a discrete security detail)... This scenario was captured by SatNews publisher Silvano Payne and advertising manager Jill Durfee via iPhone during their recent booth visits at this important trade show in Singapore. Fleck's smile is valid, mostly because he happens to be a most amiable fellow. Additional joy was Michael's when he realized the taxes his new found friend stated wanted to implement upon his income only applied to those working in the U.S of A. Silvano and Jill were also delighted when they understood such additional financial burdens were as fictional as the "look alike" himself. Michael, Silvano, and Jill, were then able to return to the show without any additional concerns regarding U.S. auto industry bailouts, national health plan development, or government approval of executive wages and bonuses—until they return home, that is. The security detail was NOT amused.
