wether he lost his passport or not, it seems he is in Manila at the moment. You do know that the Philippines (including Manila) was hit by a Typhoon at the weekend dont you?
This may understandably have something to do with him not being able to attend! (and certainly isnt funny)
Have a search on google, there is a photo of people in flood water up to their chests in Manila!

right well thats not funny. I wasn;t awre that he was in Manilla and also wasn't aware of the tycoon,
Hopefully Alex isn't involved in this and hopefully this isn't the reason he can't attend.
If he has just lost his passport though, that is funny

no i realise that you didn't know if i knew or not. I just didn't want it to look bad on my part, because it obviously not that nice to hear of a tycoon anywhere, so ithought i'd so thought i'd clarify my comment.

Breaking News! Live Challenge Matches June 24th The International Pool Tour announces that Alex Pagulayan will not be playing in the challenge match against Karl Boyes on June 24, 2008. Pagulayan's management informed the IPT today that he lost his passport. In a statement released by management at Puyat Sports, Pagulayn said "I am very sorry but I will not be able to make to the exhibition match this coming Tuesday, June 24th. I lost my passport in a car mishap last week. I have applied for a replacement of his passport with the Canadian embassy and the foreign affairs department here in Manila." The International Pool Tour wished Pagulayan good luck in resolving his passport issue.
Replacing Pagulayan will be professional pool player Tony Robles. Mr. Robles contacted the IPT several days ago about taking part in a future broadcast. When the IPT was informed of Pagulayan's inability to participate, "Robles seemed like the natural choice" said Deno Andrews, Director of the International Pool Tour. Andrews also said that "we are delighted that Mr. Robles flew across the country on hours notice to participate. Tony is a true champion and one of the game's nicest people." The IPT thanks Mr. Robles for his participation. The match airs live at www.internationalpooltour.com Tuesday, June 24th, at 8pm (eastern). The match is free for all viewers. International Pool Tour

hmm.....sounds suspicious. Tony Robles calls the IPT and asks about playing in a match and a few days later, Alex's passport goes missing.......
