This year, 2011, the AG&P Company of Manila Foundation, Inc., looks deeper into mass coaching being promoted by the Department of Education, under circular no. 433 series of 2011, campaigning to indemnify children ages 5 and above to receive better shares in education through ‘book driven’ and ‘I-I child literacy’ programs (Individual Instruction).
Two institutions benefited in the AG&PFI and RCM-BATS literacy campaigns, the Divine Care Christian School of Bauan, Inc. and the Barangay Bagong Silangan - Susanna Hall/Payatas A&B Quezon City Library.
Reverend Pedro M. Aranda, School Administrator depicts DCCSB, Inc. as a ‘four door apartment type’ Christian School in Manghinao Proper, Bauan, Batangas with 38 auspicious students. The school is being sustained by donations coming from community sponsors and Christian brothers and sisters. 50% of the students are scholars. Scholars, to DCCSB, Inc., are students from low wage or no wage earning families who pay nothing for education.
DCCSB, Inc. lacks the means to infrastructure and educational paraphernalia. They don’t even have a library or set of reference/text books for daily instructions. Students share paperbacks to facilitate edification. How miserable the school may seem, AG&P found light in the faces of the teachers, hosts and students amidst destitution. Rev. Aranda foresees at least 50 more scholars to enroll from underprivileged families by June 2011.
Just recently AG&P Company of Manila Foundation, Inc and The Rotary Club of Makati, Inc – Books Across the Seas surprised the Christian minister with 500 new children’s books to fit the book shelves AG&P also donated.
Quantity matters? Does it really?
Still April 2011, AG&P Vice-President for Finance and Administration, Marcial P. Morales Jr. handed through Ben S. Aclan, AG&P Community Relation Manager, 2000 assorted hard and soft bounded books for Barangay Bagong Silangan Library represented by its Barangay Captain Chrisell ‘Beng’ Beltran and Bro Arnold Antipado for the Couples for Christ Ministry.
The annual commitment of AG&P VP MP Morales Jr. to share his blessings to the needy moved AG&P and AG&PFI to solicit from RCM-BATS reference materials for the young Filipinos of barangay Bagong Silangan.
Books in Mathematics, Science, English & Language, Pros and Poetry, Music, Social Sciences, Economy, Literature, quiz hand outs and teaching instructions comprised the 34 bundled boxes delivered.
8 shelves in the BS Susanna Hall needed to be filled with books to accommodate at least 10,000 pupil residents of Barangay Bagong Silangan to down hill Payatas A and B.
With the initial 2000 books for the three lowland area barangays of Quezon City, children will now find time to read and be learned. They will have more access to new local and imported books thus develop better habits to learning.

A Noble Cause with St. Luke’s Medical Center
“Blood is life in existence as ‘Soul’ is essence giving life, therefore Blood is ‘life giving’ Soul” Aristotle (A syllogism on realism)
However we contend with Aristotle’s premises, contemporary epoch will tell that without blood man can not exist. This is how AG&P looks at the blood letting & donation campaigns relevantly. The blood letting campaign is an AG&P obligation aimed to minister our host communities and most especially our employees, not to mention those ‘john and jane do’s’ in need.
102 registered to voluntarily make a contribution recently, April 27, 2011, 65 were actually extracted from MITC, GSD, AG&PFI, TWS, Engr’r, In-house, PEM, PAD, HRD, Time keeping, PSD, MPCoop, DCC, QC, SubCon, Safety, Clinic.
AG&P Managers Dr. Michael Lim Cayetano, Chris L. Cabildo, Leopoldo R. Salcedo and Ernesto P. Morales earliest came to be extracted boosting morale to 102 others.
St. Luke’s Medical Center (SLMC) arrived at 9AM in great surprise to see the extended lines of donors in the AG&P Foundation building. St Luke’s Dra. Laila was overwhelmed to see how AG&P nobled the tradition in life-gift giving and was apprehensive to announce that they brought insufficient blood containers to accommodate everyone.
SLMC admitted that their experience proved them wrong to presume lesser turn over in Batangas. They thought that AG&P would hardly invite more than 50 donors due to proximity and it being an industry business unlined with CSRs and soft orientations.
Everyone was expecting to be served but the scarcity of materials held the entire half in suspended waiting. To those who waited patiently, SLMC pledged to return with more blood containers and extra dense blood bags.
The activity was so inspiring that even with hoops and flaws people still supported the blood letting and donation programs of AG&P and AG&PFI. And for whatever reason, personal or community cent, voluntarism and cooperation still eulogized the soft heart of industrialization in Batangas. They keep coming back to donate more and to donate regularly.
AG&P moved other ‘like businesses’ to charity as seen in the most recent PNRC and PEZA, for 2010-2011, nobility commendations where the latter received the Most Outstanding Blood Donor in the province of Batangas and Philippine’s Most Outstanding Community Projects awards. (Ben S. Aclan)

Community Relation and Corporate Social Responsibility
What is on your mind? Asked Anna, a community relation supervisor of a known power company in Batangas City, during a colloquia about Corporate Social Responsibility.
I always thought that delivering basic needs to host communities around AG&P, developing sustainable livelihood programs for them and being always visible are enough to claim good community relations. I was wrong. I later discovered that programs, to be successful and appreciated, should employ participation and passion from both AG&P ComRelDept and the receiver.
Program sustainability depends on how much productive time we spent in research and careful evaluation to determine its substance. It is not how we measure the feat but how significant the program should be to the beneficiary (person or community).
It is not the number of people we assisted, cared for or served but the number of lives we improved and more importantly the number of people who remembered the program and persevered to keep it on personal reasons, regardless of whose name/s the program was affiliated.
I admit to be baffled at first, but it came to me that she was actually suggesting that I assess everything we’ve accomplished in the past years. I may be putting capital on projects unnecessary and obsolete from surveys I did a year ago. She was right.
The needs of our communities change as they mutate to more complex programs and projects. Last years medical mission, although generic, metamorphosed to a more relevant approach this year providing better health & wellness by introducing papsmeer, dental and optalmology in our free clinic. It was a product of careful studies conducted from grassroots and mass level. My team immersed with our communities on a mission to relate as well as feel the din for flux.
More than a hundred activities were set on 2010. Half of them were focused on family life, health, sanitation, education, income generating and sustaining livelihood programs. The other half was on values formation.
Every year new things develop that is why AG&P ComRel continuously make studies and develop programs tailor fitted to our barangays and municipalities. We go beyond the boundaries of community service. Social responsibility is archaic to the mission as we try to ‘be’ one with our people, programs and undertakings.
More than just tasks, CSR became a commitment to reckon with and a habit to maintain. Passion is simply putting it into words. Piousness is a better coin for it.

AG&PFI signs MOA with Rotary Club of Makati Heather Kinross Center for Skills training
After being awarded as the Most Outstanding Club-Overall in 
D3830, The Rotary Club of Makati sprung forward in eulogy over another skills livelihood project sponsored by the Heather Kinross Center (HKC). The aim is to educate eight (8) young Out-of-school-youth from their adopted Gawad Kalinga communities in Villa Paraiso, Parañaque City to Welding and Pipefitting in the southern part of the country, Batangas.
Mr, Renato M. Alarcon, AG&PFI Executive Director and Ben S. Aclan, AG&PFI-Marketing and Information Manager, attended the regular RCM 3830 meeting at the Hotel Peninsula in Makati, on June 15, 2010, to meet with all the members of the Rotary Club of Makati. Greeted by Rtn Dean Velasco, also Chairman of the Heather Kinross Committee, Mr. Ben S. Aclan signed amidst the entire school of committees the formal alliance between RCM and AG&PFI. The partnership between the AG&P Company of Manila
Foundation, Inc and Rotary Club of Makati-Heather Kinross Center was sealed by a Memorandum of Agreement binding both to the program and each selected trainee.
For taking the Heather Kinross Center to new heights with training and employment programs Rtn. Dean Velasco was awarded RCM leadership distinctions. The credit was attributed to the success of HKC Commercial Cooking Course with the Asian F&B Center and TESDA and the Basic Welding Program that graduated 3 groups of trainees just recently.
Still swinging to get appraisal, the HKC partnered with the Atlantic, Gulf Company of Manila Inc., through AG&PFI, to develop their newly graduates one step up in Welding and skills advancement. The Flux Cord Arc Welding (FCAW), an upgrade course from Shielded Metal Arc Welding and SMAW 6G position in pipe welding, were Mr. Dean Velasco’s urgent focus. English proficiency, engineering designs reading, symbols interpretations, math and safety education were highlighted subjects the partners expect to emphasize in the new syllabi. AG&P being a fabrication yard, with 110 years of world quality experience would bring RCM graduates to a better place to compete commercially in Welding and Pipe Fitting aside from the better chance in finding employment thereto.
A closer look into a brighter future of the Villa Paraiso, Gawad Kalinga OSY scholars, under the guidance of AG&PFI, would make HKC fulfilled in their quest to deliver services and education worthily. The trainings are expected to commence on July this year.

FIRST & ONLY Phil-US ENGINEERING DETAILERS TO BE CERTIFIED
by: Elizabeth A. Bechner
On Thursday, May 14th, the Engineering Department of AG&P of Manila, Inc., Heavy Fabrication Yard in Bauan, Batangas will be receiving Certificates of Completion in the Detailer Training Series compiled by NISD (National Institute of Steel Detailing in the US) and AISC (American Institute of Steel Construction). This will be a historic event because it will mark the first time that this certification will be awarded in mass in the Philippines. This Certification is equivalent to two years of US Steel Detailing Experience. To qualify to take the NISD Detailer Certification Test one must have a minimum of 5 years US Detailing Experience to test for Junior Detailer Certification. Senior Detailer Certification has a minimum 10 year requirement.
This benefits the Philippines in many ways because there is a critical shortage of US Steel Detailers and much of the current detailing work in the US is outsourced overseas as a result. Steel detailing firms have been cropping up all over the Philippines for the past 5 or 6 years but few have really had the benefit of formal training in US Detailing methodology and US Imperial measurement standards.
So, what exactly is a steel detailer? They are the ones who take the contract drawings and create the fabrication and erection drawings for the steel fabricator to fabricate every individual piece of steel in a project as well as the erection plans for the erector to set the steel at the jobsite.
Who qualifies to become a steel detailer? Any engineer with a background and good knowledge of AutoCAD, good problem solving skills and who is highly organized can be trained to do this work.
Even though there is a worldwide economic crisis at hand, many companies around the world are still pursuing their projects such as with the oil and mining industries. Thus there will be a growing demand in steel detailing for the Philippines which translates in more jobs available for our engineering graduates. As the US steel construction industry grows out of the recession, the move will be towards a requirement for detailers doing US work to be US certified. The award of these certificates is the first step among many towards that goal. AG&P has invested in their future as well as the future of the Philippines by embracing this training program and making it standard training for all incoming employees.

First Gas Power Corporation Speaks to Graduates
"Hurdle your batons to the finish line so others may relay it anew creating a team of winners in the run for a better future ahead of you!" 
The Second assembly of graduates for batch 6 of February to May of 2009 was the First Gas Power Corporation (First Gen - FGPC) and Sta. Rita Aplaya sponsored welding and pipe fitting classes composed of 21 newly acclaimed 3G/4G welders and 'first (1st) class' pipe fitters.
Ramon J. Araneta, Vice President for Plant Administration (FGPC), in two (2) speeches reiterated his challenge to each student to catch a 'baton' from their successors as they themselves relay the same to the coming generations of professionals.
"With more gifts come greater responsibility to serve" words of wisdom VP Araneta added to his speech.
How each perceived a better chance to work with AG&P depends on expertise gained and the proficiencies earned during trainings inside the AGPFI technical Institute. A chance to work with Foster Wheeler Coker Project is everyone's yearning thus inspired in a speech by Assistant Vice-President for Quality Management Gregorio A. Coronel.
AVP Coronel in figures of speeches exemplified boxing and Manny Pacquiao to catch the audience attention. As the Pacman underwent preparation, he was trained to concentrate on specific styles for every bout. Each opponent has a unique style needing a unique counter training necessary to win a fight. Excellence is achieved through discipline, hard work and perfection. By doing so, Pacman earned his fame, as well as, his competency in the skill which he is now enjoying fruits of. What made him rich were not the winnings alone but the expertise he demonstrated to the world. So shall each of the students be for the sake of being skillful welders and pipe fitters. Foster Wheeler Coker project will hire those who qualify.
FGPC VP, RJ.Araneta, seconded the examples of AVP Coronel by invoking the paradigm of 'employment race' where achieving a life-long dream doesn't stop in graduation rather starts thereon marking another sprint to the finish and in the line waits a recipient of shared talents with greater expectations. He added that, striving to perfect the skill they already have needs practice to perfection, practice, practice and more practice. "The 'baton' will be hurdled far and fast so that each one achieves his/her dreams while others build hopes from their yields".
Araneta also stressed that skilled workers are potential remedies to economic flux this is why First Gas Power Corp spends Php0.01 per kilowatt-hour of their total electricity sales as financial benefits to their host communities as mandated by the implementing rules and regulations of Republic Act No. 9136, otherwise known as the Electric Power Industry Reform Act of 2001 (EPIRA), and Energy Regulations No. 1-94 of the Department of Energy (DOE). Monies from the allocation are devoted to electrification, development and livelihood, or reforestation, watershed management, health and /or environment enhancement projects identified by the relevant local government units that directly benefit the concerned communities.

Sta. Rita Aplaya Head shed tears of Joy on graduation day.
The site of students wearing white polo shirts with FGPC and 
Sta. Rita Aplaya logos, seated beside teary parents while holding rolled diplomas on their left hand and medals/plaque of certificates on the right may have prickled the softer side of Barangay Chieftain of Sta. Rita Aplaya Olivia Perez Perez to cry while delivering her message to 21 of her graduates during the 6th Batch commencement exercises May 7, 2009.
Sentimental about the occasion, the chieftain recalls her ordeal with fate at age 16 being a domestic helper in Manila to support a family of nine (9) while her mom succumbs in bed with multiple organ failure due to kidney and heart diseases before death. With only a father to look after them, she delivered her family from poverty, studying at 8AM to 4:30PM and working as a housemaid on hours necessitated by her lords.

She narrated how good her employers were by permitting her to study during lull hours and pay extra to send to brothers and sisters in Batangas for food and basic needs. She went through hardships and tears of blood scarcely to finish highschool after which accounted every bit of her success to hard labor and perseverance. "Lucky are you who have been given this chance to study for free, subsidized by your government and First Gas!, many will slay to take your place in earning a skill, I can't help but cry, for the joy of seeing you all succeed. I know how hard it was to sustain training but everything will be rewarded as I was during my younger days. All you have to do is look back at your parents, brothers, sisters, husband and wives, for inspiration then dream on!" Brgy. Captain Perez reciprocated in hypothesis.
"No one has the right to take these good things away from you! I am very proud to support you. If I can, I will see to it that these kinds of programs become a regular annual Barangay practice so that many will be benefited by the skills you are able to use to alleviate miserable lives to better! We just have to be creative and resourceful to succeed. Use you talents. Don't ever stop. This is your time to grow!" The humble chieftain exclaimed in tears.

Barangay Captain Perez earned her post through planting good will on her constituents. Every little service she hands round becomes her trophy in fame and admiration. From rugs to riches she became in Sta. Rita Aplaya, this is how the students recall their benefactor on interviews after the affair.
