The country’s leading LPG provider has launched a campaign that advocates positive Filipino values and emphasizes the importance of family


As the country gears up for change, ISLA LPG Corporation (ILC), the leading LPG solutions company and owner of the brand Solane, launches an advocacy campaign that aims to remind consumers of the importance of family and positive Filipino values.

Drawing inspiration from the popular Filipino expression, which in English means, “That’s how it should be… Rightly so,” ISLA LPG launches the “Dapat Lang” campaign — a program that emphasizes the importance of doing the right thing, for the family, for others and society as a whole. The campaign also touches on the importance of bringing back traditional Filipino values which have somehow been misplaced in our high-technology, fast-paced, modern setting. These values include commitment to the family, honesty, hard work, respect for others, and integrity. 

“As we prepare for the many changes happening in our environment, we at ISLA LPG would like to remind everyone of the Filipino values that define us as a people and to put importance on the family, being a good neighbor and a valuable member of society,” said ILC-CEO Ruben Domingo. “Our new campaign  reminds all of us — our consumers, employees, and business partners — to do the right thing in everything we do, all the time, wherever we are, in order to truly bring out positive change in all of us.”

ISLA LPG Corporation (ILC), the leading LPG solutions company and owner of the brand Solane, launches an advocacy campaign that reminds consumers of the importance of positive Filipino values.




The advocacy campaign will be communicated with various mediums — print and radio ads, social media, and online videos, showcasing a mom cooking the best dishes for her family, an employee putting in ample time at work, a chef preparing high-quality ingredients for his customers, a manager catering to the needs of the client, the Solane Hatid Bahay rider ensuring that LPG delivery is safe and on time. 

As part of the Dapat Lang campaign, ISLA LPG is also launching a new website, which outlines the various ways with which Solane stakeholders can live out the new campaign principle in their everyday lives. The newly revamped site also features a blog that will serve as a way for ISLA LPG to communicate directly with its consumers, especially moms. The blog will feature quick and easy recipes and helpful and time-saving tips on cooking for the family, keeping a safe environment at work and home, and more. 

For its part, ISLA LPG lives out the Dapat Lang campaign by doing what it does best since the brand Solane was launched almost five years ago — provide consumers with high-quality, safe, reliable LPG products.   

“We value our consumers’ safety and we ensure that it is our key priority,” said Mr. Domingo. “We also value our customers’ trust by providing excellent products and services that are well worth their family’s hard-earned money.”

Moreover, ISLA LPG offers Solane Hatid-Bahay Service, an exclusive service provided to Solane LPG residential customers.  ISLA LPG’s well-trained riders conduct a Weight Check in front of customers using calibrated portable weighing scales, assuring households of value for their money. The Solane Hatid-Bahay riders also perform the 7-Point Safety Check free of charge to help ensure the safety of consumers and their families. This includes checking the surroundings, o-ring, regulator, regulator and valve connection, hose, hose connection, and flame quality.
  
Furthermore, ISLA LPG holds regular safety seminars for its customers as well as to various communities nationwide. The company’s employees and contractors follow strict compliance of safe LPG handling and fire safety. Through this, ISLA LPG has achieved a significant milestone of 13 million man hours without lost time injury.

This commitment to provide the best and safe product and service is, needless to say, reinforced with the launch of the company’s new advocacy campaign because as they say, Kapag LPG, Dapat Lang Solane!

The Philippine International Convention Center (PICC), Asia’s first international  convention center, turned 40 last September 5 with a grand celebration at its Reception Hall.  

Four decades after its formal inauguration on September 5, 1976, the PICC has stood the test of time to establish itself as one of the premier event venues in Southeast Asia.  Witnessing the greatest moments of the past generations and hosting the most important events in Philippine history, the PICC has become more than just a national landmark, but a shining gem for arts, culture, history and entertainment.  






Its biggest events include the 1976 IMF-World Bank Meeting, the 3rd Informal Summit of the ASEAN (1999), the 112th Inter-Parliamentary Union Assembly (2005), the 40th ASEAN Ministerial Meeting, Post Ministerial Conference and ASEAN Regional Forum (2007), 45th Annual Meeting of the Board of Governors of the Asian Development Bank (2012), and the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Meetings in 1996 and 2015.   Other significant events held at the PICC include the 1992 World Chess Olympiad and the 1994 Miss Universe Pageant, and concerts by various renowned international artists which include Luciano Pavarotti, Tony Bennett, Michael Buble, Josh Groban, Janet Jackson, and our very own Lea Salonga. Religious icons have also graced the halls of the center such as Saint Teresa of Calcutta and Saint John Paul II.

The celebration looked back at the grandest moments of the PICC.  An exhibit displayed photos from select events, the highlight of which was the handwritten message to PICC by Saint Teresa of Calcutta, who was canonized as a Saint by Pope Francis a day before the PICC anniversary celebration.

Over dinner, guests were treated to an entertainment spectacle hosted by the talented Denise Laurel, with performances from Ballet Manila and top balladeer Christian Bautista.   Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas Governor and Chairman of the PICC Board of Directors Amando M. Tetangco, Jr. spoke about the PICC’s legacy as well as the Center’s plans for the future.

PICC’s top clients and loyal partners from the private and government sector were recognized for their valuable support for the Center over the years, and PICC employees who have worked at the Center for at least twenty years were honored with Service Recognition awards for their hard work, dedication, selfless service, and enduring loyalty.

A special award, the PICC Gem, was given to acclaimed singer-actress Lea Salonga, for embodying PICC’s ideals of world-class excellence and global reach, and for showcasing the PICC to the world as the country’s premier event venue.  She is the first-ever recipient of the award.

Governor Tetangco, Monetary Board Member Armando L. Suratos, and members of the PICC Board of Directors Pacita Rosalinda Y. Aguirre, Gabriel L. Cruz, Raquel D. Garcia, Cristina M. Sarino and Susan S. Villar and PICC General Manager Renato B. Padilla handed out the awards to the honorees.  The night ended on a high note, with a toast to the PICC’s next “40 years and forward”.

With the PICC continuing to evolve, the national gem only shines brighter as it  combines its rich heritage with a clear mandate and vision of the future.

Make room for the newest barkada favorite—the Jolly Crispy Savory BBQ Fries! Made with 100% real potatoes and sprinkled with a special blend of flavorings, the Savory BBQ fries pack a thrilling intensity with every bite. Perfect for pairing with other Jollibee treats or enjoyed on its own, the Jolly Crispy Savory BBQ Fries offer a zesty combination of sweet-smoky, with a spicy kick for a true flavorventure, only from the country’s number one fastfood brand.

“One of Jollibee’s missions is to find new flavors to thrill modern Filipino palates,” said Francis E. Flores, Jollibee Global Chief Marketing Officer and Philippine Head of Marketing. “The new Jolly Crispy Savory BBQ Fries is definitely the ideal snack and meal complement for foodies and adventurers who are always looking for new discoveries, activities, and flavors to share during bonding moments with their families and friends.”





Rounding up the Jolly #FriendsFries crew

Aside from a new exciting flavor added to the Jolly Crispy Fries roster, the fastfood brand is welcoming actress and host Jasmine Curtis-Smith to the growing Jollibee family. 

“I’m ecstatic and over the moon,” gushed the 22-year-old actress. “Six years into my career and my dream of working with Jollibee finally happened. Everyone loves the brand and to be the face of something that I genuinely and naturally love makes me feel very thankful.”

The Filipino-Australian Jasmine has a truly Pinoy palate, with an innate fondness for Jollibee. “We’ve always been a family that loves Jollibee,” she related. “My mom gave me a Jolly Kids Party, and even when we were living in Australia we craved for Jollibee, and there were no branches there yet!”

“So when we were in the States, pinuntahan pa rin namin ‘yung Jollibee sa Los Angeles kahit na I was moving to the Philippines,” said Jasmine. “It’s like a landmark that you have to visit, especially if you’re Filipino.”

Jasmine is joining DJ and TV host Nikko Ramos, as well as YouTube vloggers Wil Dasovich and Janina Vela as key influencers for the Jolly Crispy Flavored Fries campaign. Dasovich and Vela led the product’s launch campaign in April 2016.

As one of the first few who tried the Savory BBQ fries ahead of the entire nation, the actress is excited for her family, friends, and fans to spice up their meals and merienda with the new product. “I’m always looking for something savory to eat,” admitted Jasmine. “These fries hit the right spots. I always look for the taste in food e, and how good it feels when I eat it!”

“The Jolly #FriendsFries represent the quintessential Pinoy barkada that loves to explore new things together,” added Flores. “They also love exciting new flavors that complement their super-fun personalities!”

Flavor up your next barkada bonding

The Savory BBQ variant is available in all Jollibee branches in Metro Manila starting September 5, 2016. Barkadas from all over the Philippines can flavor up their ultimate bonding moments starting September 12 for Luzon and September 19 for Visayas and Mindanao. 

The Jolly Crispy Fries is also available in Super Cheese, and for dine-in, take-out, delivery, and drive-thru transaction in three sizes: Regular (P40.00*), Large (P65.00*), and for those who can’t get enough, Extra Large (P80.00*).

Piolo Pascual is best known for his acting and singing chops, but this year he will take on the role of a foodie and explore the flavors of Japan in "The Crawl," Lifestyle's special food and travel show premiering on September 3 and 10.

In "The Crawl," Piolo together with his crawl buddy Lui Villaruz, and a Japanese interpreter embark on a food crawl challenge where they visit the favorite dining spots of locals to score the best okonomiyaki and ramen in Osaka, Japan, a city known for its vibrant street food scene. Piolo and Lui also try out Japan's signature dishes like Yakisoba, Gyoza, Takoyaki, and Tepanyaki. 

Tippy Benedito, Lifestyle Channel head, explained the concept saying that a “food crawl is an event where people hop from one restaurant to another to sample dishes.” 

Piolo also shared that he loved his time in Osaka. He remarked, “We particularly loved Osaka because of the gastronomic experience. I have been to Osaka before but in this trip, we discovered more about Japan, their food, and why their cuisine is so special. I definitely enjoyed this trip because it didn’t feel like work.”

As a food and travel show, Lifestyle's "The Crawl" aims to showcase the culture of a particular place through a culinary expedition by hitting the streets to restaurant-hop to uncover the best places to sample the rich cuisine of a city. The show, through its hosts, also provides tips on how to maximize one’s food and travel experience. 

Viewers are also treated to breathtaking sights in Osaka like the Universal City Walk Osaka, the Kuromon Market, and the Takoyaki Museum, among others in between crawl spots. 

"The Crawl" is a Lifestyle original food and travel show adding to the list of successful shows the channel has produced like  "Metabeats,” "Curiosity Got The Chef," "Food Prints," and "Listed." Lifestyle is one of the channels of Creative Programs, Inc., a subsidiary of ABS-CBN that aims to give Filipinos a complete lifestyle experience while gaining meaningful insights. 

Don't miss Piolo and Lui's exciting gastronomical trip in Osaka in Lifestyle's "The Crawl," on September 3,  (9:30 pm) and every Sunday 1pm, Monday 2:30pm, Tuesday 7:30pm, Wednesday 11:30am,  and Saturday, 6:30am. Lifestyle is available on SKYcable channel 52. For updates, follow Lifestyle on Facebook (facebook.com/lifestyletvph), Instagram (@lifestyletvph), and Twitter (@lifestyletvph).
