Attending the GDG DevFest Cordillera/Baguio event - I just learned that there's a GO (programming language) community here in the Philippines.

As per my discussion with Tzar Umang the GO Philippine users (hence "GOphers") & developer community is quite small at the moment. However, the intention is to slowly grow through organic member participation.

"It's better to start small (number of people) and let the members of the community showcase their GO-skills", Tzar added.

Tzar gave a workshop on GO basics at the University of Baguio as part of #DevFestBaguio on November 22, 2014.
