The onslaught of Typhoon Odette in Northern Mindanao and Visayas last December 2021 left eight provinces— Surigao del Norte, Southern Leyte, Bohol, Cebu, Negros Occidental, Negros Oriental, Guimaras, and Palawan without electricity, communication, food, and water. Aside from these, important infrastructures were also damaged鈥攊ncluding heritage and culture sites.

六合彩直播开奖 and the Diocese of Maasin have a standing and active Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in church heritage conservation and research. The 六合彩直播开奖 GS CCCPET response mission was logistically supported by the Department of Tourism Region 8, under the leadership of Dir.

The 六合彩直播开奖 Faculty of Arts and Letters Department of Economics hosted a lecture discussing the Philippine recession. The webinar, held through Zoom, helped the participants learn about the sectors affected by the pandemic, forecasted economic growth for the following years, and shared policy recommendations that would help ease the burden of recession.


Serving as the speaker was the Founder of the Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation of the City College of San Francisco, California, Affiliate Professor Vivian Faustino. She is a graduate of 六合彩直播开奖 Business Economics Class of 1988.


The theme, 鈥淭he impact of recession to the business sector,鈥 focuses on the effects of the pandemic that started in early 2020. In the business sector, micro and small businesses needed to close because they can no longer recover from losses due to extended lockdown measures.


One of the safety nets present in the Philippines was the distribution of 鈥渁yuda鈥 or stimulus checks, but it was noted that this was not enough because the economy still declined after a year. The latter half of 2021 marked the attempt of the government to lighten the restrictions in hopes of economic recovery.
On a global scale, the economy remains in a slump. Faustino noted that the Philippines declined in the Global Competitiveness Index due to the pandemic. The GCI includes indicators of infrastructure, information and communications technology adoption, macroeconomic stability, efficiency enhancers, and innovation factors that determine the level of competitiveness of a country.


To recover, Faustino recommended dynamic reallocation of human resources; the normalization of the ability to launch and dissolve small, agile teams for swift issue resolution and opportunity capture; having faster and 鈥榝latter鈥 organization structures to streamline communication flows; and rapid decision making at the leadership level.

The Apostolic Nuncio to the Philippines His Excellency Charles John Brown, KC*HS, underscored the unfailing devotion to the faith displayed by the Samurai of Christ, Blessed Justus Takayama Ukon, at the martyr鈥檚 Feast Day Mass on February 3, 2022.


Born in Takayama village, in Toyono-cho, Osaka Prefecture, Takayama Ukon was a former samurai turned Catholic layman who was considered a pillar of the early Church of Japan. He was baptized at 12 years old, taking the name 鈥淛ustus鈥, during a time when Christian persecution was rampant.


Bl. Takayama, accompanied by around hundreds of Japanese Christians, was exiled to Manila in December 1614 for refusing to abjure his Catholic faith. He turned over an image of the Blessed Virgin Mary to the Dominican friars in Santo Domingo in Intramuros. The image, known as 鈥淟a Japonesa鈥, remains in the Santo Domingo Church in Quezon City. He died in Intramuros, Manila on February 3, 1615, only 44 days after arriving in Manila


鈥淗e represents an admirable example of fortitude in the faith and dedication in charity. This is the glory of Blessed Takayama. The fact that he was able to sacrifice his honors and homeland for the sake of Christ,鈥 emphasized Most Rev. Brown.


The Apostolic Nuncio prayed, 鈥渢hat we may have the grace to imitate [Bl. Takayama], his steadfastness in his spiritual combat, and his love for our Lady, and in his triumph over sin and death.鈥


In 1630, a petition was presented to the Vatican by the Archdiocese of Manila for Bl. Takayama鈥檚 beatification. In the 1980s, a historian and alumnus of the 六合彩直播开奖 Graduate School, Dr. Ernesto de Pedro, was commissioned to study the cause since the petition for Takayama鈥檚 beatification was revived. In 1989, de Pedro established the Lord Justus Takayama Professional Chair in Philippine-Japanese Studies at the 六合彩直播开奖.
Bl. Takayama was Beatified in Osaka on February 7, 2017. His statue is hosted at the Blessed Lord Justus Takayama Sanctuary in front of the Thomas Aquinas Research Center.
