Festival Raises Public Awareness on Nutritional Benefits of Pork and Egg

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Our daily meals would normally consist of pork meat and eggs. Our fridge would always have the two because we would often include them in our weekly grocery shopping list. A visit to the grocery and market would always take us to the meat and egg stalls as we consider these food as basic supply for weekly consumption.

However, there has been a great clamor for healthy foods recently that encourages people to eat healthy by staying away from "fattening" or "oily" foods which are wrongly perceived as greatly attributed to pork and eggs due to the public's lack of correct information.

Thus, with the very honorable goal to create better public awareness on the benefits of pork and egg products, the Pork Producers Federation of the Philippines (ProPork) and the Philippine Association of Breeder Layers, Inc., (PABLI) have teamed up for the very first time to organize the 1st National Pork and Egg Festival.

The event was open free to the public so many would have the opportunity to learn as much about pork and egg, as well as the ins and out of their production.

During the event, the two organizations unveiled their respective seal of excellence that they will give to companies that underwent rigorous process of ensuring high quality products which translates to more consumer safety.

Pinoy Entrepreneur Summit Presents Top Caliber Speakers on Entrepreneurship

Wazzup Pilipinas!

With an impressive line-up of speakers, most of which I have met and know personally, the Pinoy Entrepreneur Summit was indeed a great spectacle to behold. For me, seeing these people gathered together in one venue was a dazzling feat. I have to congratulate the organizers of this event for their ability to make the event overloading with so many useful information shared by these highly respectable resource persons.

Having the theme "Getting INto Business: From Passion to Action" the entire day was filled with enthusiastic students all eager to absorb all the knowledge and experience shared throughout the day. I am sure that many got the inspiration to equally match, or even surpass, the achievements of the speakers that day.

Held at the Megamall Conference Center, 5th floor of SM Megamall in Ortigas Pasig city, the Pinoy Entrepreneur Summit is a highly relevant source of information especially for business students who all want to be the best in their chosen fields. Thus, there were many sectors of entrepreneurship that were represented at the event.

From startups to advocacy or social entrepreneurships, the speakers shared insights that you won't normally learn from school. Most of the time, the most significant learning comes from the actual experience in the field when you are at your actual work area where you experience all the real life scenarios that are all challenging and most of the time reaching breaking points. It is only at our actual work where we encounter the various trials and challenges, and where we learn to become more resourceful and creative in order to meet our deadlines and reach our goals.

The 2016 Chevrolet Trax Launched at the Palace Pool Club

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Your Pambansang Blogger ng Pilipinas was again invited to attend another car launch this month... and all I could say as I entered the venue was "Wow!

The 2016 Chevrolet Trax was launched at the illustrious Palace Pool Club at The Palace located in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) of Taguig. This is the place where you'll find Revel, The Brewery and Valkyrie, and probably more soon as there seems to be a lot more spaces to build in this empire.

As appropriate to its class, the new crossover Chevy Trax deserves only the best venue for its launch. I remember telling a friend that the Chevy launch was going to be held at the Palace Pool Club, and he couldn't figure out how they would be able to put the car inside.

Well, I guess nothing is impossible these days as everything can be achieved if we put our minds, and creativity, to work. Congratulations to the organizers for the glamorous setup, and if very few noticed, I loved the way they incorporated the Chevy logo in the pool using materials that would float. Impressive, but it would have been a lot more amazing if people can actually take a photo from above.

It was supposed to be my third time at this venue as I had previous invites for other events that were held there but this is the first time my busy schedule permitted me to attend an event there. As expected, I got a little lost since the driver said he does not know his way around BGC yet. We couldn't find the place since there was no sign big enough to indicate we were there already. I should have trusted my instincts when I saw the almost castle like structure with the large letters that spelled out Brewery. I should have got off from that spot.
