Secretary’s Corner_01172013

Last week we had Ms. Yoon Kyoung Oh as guest speaker. Ms. Oh is one of 19 delegates from Korea who participated in the Korea-Philippines Teacher Exchange Program of APCEIU (Asia Pacific Center of Education for International Understanding). She spoke about the APCEIU program briefly and delved into her experience being assigned to the Pinaglabanan Elementary School. She teaches Mathematics but her interest is in Filipino culture because of her desire to help Filipino students in Korea. There was a lively open forum after her PowerPoint aided speech.

Last Friday, January 11 Pres. Jojo Bacarro and I conducted the second part of the Financial Literacy seminar to the 60+ teachers of the Pinaglabanan Elementary School. Our baby Rotarian Jay Penaflor was main resource speaker since the topic was on Investing in the Stock Market. The seminar was also supported by staff from the F. Ortigas Securities, Inc. who provided the account opening forms and snacks that followed the seminar. Thanks to Rtn. Jay Penaflor and PP Jimmy Ortigas.

Today we listen to our speaker, Mr. John Silva of the Ortigas Foundation, his subject matter will be the History of Photography in the Philippines. Let us welcome Mr. Silva to our Rotary Club.

Cheers and enjoy Rotary J
