Women are capable of being strong commanders in politics, business, health, and beyond.   As more and more women take top leadership roles, it becomes even more apparent that that they are just as capable of being strong commanders in politics, business, health, and beyond. In celebration of Women’s History Month, AXA Philippines, one of the country’s leading insurance providers, offers goal-setting tips for female leaders who want to achieve more for themselves and for the people around them: Write your goals down. Using a visual tool, such as writing, makes goals more tangible and gives you a clearer picture of what you want to achieve, be it in life or at work. When you write down your goals, not only do you become emotionally engaged, but you are also able to set deadlines and actionable steps on what needs to be done to achieve them. Say no to fear.

World Vision former sponsored child leads outreach activity in Aeta community in Zambales

Image
The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG), led by Commodore Armand Balilo and actor/ Lieutenant Commander Gerald Anderson of the PCG Auxiliary, recently conducted an outreach activity in Zambales, reaching out to about 300 families living in an Aeta community also known as the Lupang Pangako Resettlement Area in Barangay San Agustin. Lupang Pangako used to be a massive project assisted by child-focused agency World Vision through its relief, child sponsorship and community-based programs in the aftermath of the devastating Mt. Pinatubo eruption in 1991 which displaced over 20,000 Aeta highlanders in the Central Luzon province. “Even though it has been three decades since the volcano erupted, its impact to those permanently displaced remains until today. But what is good is that blessings continue to pour,” shared Commo Balilo, also the spokesperson for PCG. Commo Balilo also said that many institutions like PCG Public Affairs, PCG Logistics Systems Command, PCG Station Subic, and World

Louie Sangalang vs. Lara Pearl Alvarez: Who Is The Pinoy Favorite To Win ONE Championship Apprentice?

Image
  .   TWO of the 16 candidates from around the world vying in The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition come from the Philippines. But as big of a pride as they have in representing the country in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Lara Pearl Alvarez and Louie Sangalang couldn't be any more different in their respective approaches to this high-stakes game of business competitions and physical challenges. Alvarez' bid heavily leans with courage, one trait that the Philippines has exemplified over the years across different industries. "Filipinos are known to be courageous," she said.  "In the past, we fought for our right and our freedom and it continues up to the present time. Every Filipino is fighting for something -- their life, their dreams, and their family." That determination, Alvarez noted, would be her driving force in her quest to win the US $250,0 00 job offer to work as ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong's protégé at the ONE Championship

Degs’ branch helped his local community survive the pandemic during the resulting lockdowns. Alfamart, the first and only Super Minimart chain in the Philippines, has been expanding its reach for the past six years of its Philippines operations.
