A Tribute to the 44 SAF members who fell in Mamasapano, Maguindanao

Ang Tunay na Bayaning Pilipino

Mabuhay kayong magigiting na bayani!

Mga tunay na bayani sa Pilipinas.

Ang Diwa ng Pagiging Isang Bayani

Pilipinas kong mahal, tunay na bayan ng mga bayani

Mga sundalo’t kawal na handang mag-alay ng buhay

Ilang himagsikan laban sa mga dayuhan iyong pinaglabanan

Ilang beses na ba ang Pilipinas ay nakapagtamo ng tagumpay

Upang makamtam ang minimithing tunay na kalayaan

Sapat na ba ito sa atin makulay na kasaysayan

Ngayon nababalot ng pighati at agam-agam?

Aanhin ang kalayaan kung sa sariling lupa ay may alitan

Kapwa Pilipino nalilihis ng ideaolohiya at hangarin

Bagkos may iilan handang magbuwis ng buhay

Para sa ikakabuti ng ating mahal na Pilipinas.

Kayong mga sundalo’t magigiting na kawani

Labing-apat na matatapang at handang lumaban sa ngalan ng bayan

Ang inyong paglisan ay labis namin dinaramdam

Ang inyong pagpanaw ay higit namin kinamumuhian

Sapagka’t kayo’y tunay na nanilbihan sa ating inang bayan

Sa puso't isipan kayo'y tunay na dakilang bayani.

Dalamhati't pighati kaisa ang buong bayan.

Transforming Lives: The Impact of SM Group's KSK Program on Filipino Farmers

Farming futures Jayson and Juanito proudly showcase a selection of produce at the SM City Clark’s Weekend Market. While modern agricultural techniques boost yields for some, there remains a number of Filipino farmers who struggle to keep pace. These experienced hands find themselves falling behind in a market demanding higher production, clinging to familiar yet often inefficient methods passed down through generations. One farmer from Pampanga, Jayson Garcia, sought to disrupt this prevailing narrative in his family. He knew that he had to chart a new course forward for his farm and innovate to remain competitive within the rapidly evolving landscape of modern agriculture. “Noon, mahirap ang magtanim,” he recalled their life before joining SM Foundation’s Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan. “Para bang tsambahan, basta pag itinanim mo ‘yan, hintayin mo na lang mamunga. Mas mahirap pa lalo kapag nagkaroon ng kalamidad,” he added. SM Foundation’s training program focused on high-value crop cultiv

A 15-Minute Tropical City in Pasay

All within 15 minutes: Urban planning concept city to rise in Pasay For the modern urban dweller, 15 minutes is a lot of time. A lot of productive things can be done – a high-intensity, interval training (HITT) workout or run a 1.5-kilometer route, clearing your emails, meditating, catching up on the news, or preparing a quick smoothie – all within 15 minutes. But for the Metro Manila commuter, 15 minutes is barely enough to get from point A to point B. During rush hour, it is most likely that within this time, you still haven’t moved an inch. Ever heard of the 15-minute city? It’s a modern urban planning concept that puts people and the planet first. The term was coined by Paris-based urbanist and Sorbonne University professor Carlos Moreno wherein he said that the ideal neighborhood or city is built in such a way where work, food, housing, education and cultural activities can be easily accessed within 15 minutes, whether by foot or by using a bike.

Venue Infrastructure Challenges Concert Experience in the Philippines

Countries with better, bigger, and more competitive concert venues have reaped economic benefits, especially with the massive and significant influence of popular international acts like pop superstar Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour and Coldplay’s World Tour in consumer behavior and spending. Driving tens of thousands of ‘Swifties’ and concert enthusiasts, the success of these concerts was an economic stimulus for countries worldwide, including Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore and Japan. Filipino fans alike had to spend big and travel miles to watch the exclusive performance of superstar Swift in Singapore’s National Stadium while others went to Japan’s Tokyo Dome and Sydney’s Accor Stadium in Australia. The massive concert gigs boosted the respective country’s economies, benefitting entertainment, hospitality, retail, and transport industries significantly. While Singapore’s strategy for a Southeast Asia exclusive Swift performance piqued interest and likewise piqued its neighbo
