Ratratan Philippines Is Coming Back! Save The Date: 15 December 2018

One of the exciting airsoft events in the Philippines is about to start again. The Ratratan (“Firefight”) Series started 11 years ago in 2007 and had a 3-year run with the event stopping when player numbers dwindled in the country caused by election gun bans and airsoft players in those years took up new hobbies such as running and biking.

On Facebook, some of the veterans of Ratratan have been saying to us, “Ratratan na ulit!” has given us thought in recent months if we should revive the series again. With us covering the MOA Exhbition in Taiwan in December, we finally decided to also include the Philippines in our trip to East Asia and that means an activity to be with the airsoft players there.

Ratratan is also Popular Airsoft’s appreciation event for the airsoft community in the Philippines, one of the oldest and most vibrant airsoft communities in the world. Filipino airsoft players are very instrumental in spreading airsoft outside of East Asia and wherever there is airsoft, there is a Filipino playing.

Whilst we have decided the 15th of December 2018 as the date for the event we are yet to decide on the venue and there are two candidates. So either it will be somewhere in Metro Manila or in the Province of Bulacan, just at the northern outskirts of the Metro.

So save the date. We’ll make a full announcement on Ratratan 2018 next week as soon as we finally decide on the game site.
