Dear Lord,

As Rotarians, we are generally blessed with

many opportunities. Help us to review the

registers of our lives with honesty as we

consider our priorities, and our opportunity to

help others. Open our hearts to those in need,

while still providing us with appropriate fruits

of our own labors. Help us to share not only

our tangible wealth, but also our intangible

riches of knowledge, leadership, and creativity

to make our city, our nation, and our world, a

better place filled with the peace and love that

You can bring through us.

Amen.

of the things we think, say or do:

1. Is it the TRUTH?

2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?

3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER

FRIENDSHIPS?

4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

The Object of Rotary is to encourage and foster the ideal of

service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in particular, to encourage

and foster:

First : The development of acquaintance as an

opportunity for Service;

Second : High Ethical standards in business and professions;

the Recognition of the worthiness of all useful

occupations; and the dignifying of each Rotarian’s

occupation as an opportunity to serve society;

Third : The application of the ideal of service in each

Rotarian’s personal, business and community life;

Fourth : The advancement of international understanding,

goodwill, and peace through a world fellowship of

business and professional persons united in the ideal

of service.

HIS WAY (Adapted from My Way)

And now his year is gone

And so he’s called his final meeting

To all, he’ll say again

“By the power vested in me”

He’s led a year that’s full

By reaching out to the community

And so, we all now know

Ogie had his way

Regrets, he’s had his share

But then again so did the others

He did what he had to do

His messages were kilometric

He planned the things we did

Each careful step the contractor that he is

And so, we all now know

Ogie had his way

Yes, there were times we’re sure you knew

When he bit off much more than he could chew

But through it all when there was doubt

He gave it up and threw it out

He faced it all and he stood tall

Ogie had his way..

He’s loved, he’s laughed and cried

He’s had his fill, his share of winning

And now, as his term ends

He finds it all so gratifying

To think he did a lot and as we know but in his own way

Oh yes, oh yes, that’s him

Ogie is his name.

For what is a man, what has he got

If not himself, then he has not

To do the things he truly wants

Not just by words but by good deeds

The record shows he did it all

And did it his way.

Yes Ogie had his way..

(Lyrics adaptation by PP Peter)

Pres. Ogie Lim

Fellow Pasig Rotarians:

This is my last article.

After this concluding column From the President, I will have to

rest my pen and wait for another opportunity to maybe write again.

I had a wonderful experience in flexing my rustic English

grammar and spelling. I would like to principally thank our Tinig

editor, who, not only edited my grammar but also the facts of my

article. You see, I write this column most of the time in between

meetings and sometimes in between hangovers. Many thanks to

PP Celso who never missed a bit.

The last three weeks were a blast. I visited seven states in

America and hopped on plane flights for at least ten times. I went

home only last Sunday, exhausted but eagerly wanting to go back

to work again.

Last Monday, June 26, the District bestowed upon our Club seven

awards, a far cry from what some of our members were expecting.

I would like to thank PDG/RIDE Raffy, PP Conrad, PP Celso, PP

Ramy, PP Topax, PP Rel, PE Jess, PP Peter, and Director Ben for

the words of encouragement. I would like to thank also PE Jess,

PP Jun Zafra, PP Ramy, Sec Ray, and Rtn Marlo for joining me in

the District Awards Night.

Actually, I finished this article before I went to bed early Tuesday

night. I wanted this article to be remembered as the shortest

column I have written this Rotary Year. But when I woke up early

morning of the next day, I was jolted by the discussion thread

between RIDE Raffy and DGov Jlo regarding our disappointment

in the results of the Awards Night.

Tinig Newsletter June 29, 2017

Continuation 1.

Allow me to give my two cents worth as president of this noble

club to give justice to our members who worked hard to make a

difference in the lives of our less privileged countrymen.

As I mentioned in our Viber group, I am confident that we have

met the criterion to qualify as the most outstanding club and as the

most outstanding club president except for the membership

increase criterion. We only recruited 6 regular members and one

honorary member this Rotary Year. But when you take into

consideration our club donation of USD168,000 to the Rotary

Foundation – a far cry from USD40,000 donation of the next club

– I think that is more than enough to offset that membership issue.

In fact, our club was responsible for 25% of the total donation of

the District to the TRF.

I must admit that some clubs, including ours, recruited members

belatedly, and after less than a year, lost most of their new

members for various reasons. BUT, as for the money donated in

the TRF, that could never be lost. It is a permanent conveyance to

be used forever by the RI in its worldwide service projects. Like

most of us, I am personally disappointed that the Rotary Club of

Pasig did not receive the Most Outstanding Club in the District, an

award it most duly deserves.

As regards our Service Projects, I am particularly proud of our

flagship projects: the Reintegration Project, the Water Hyacinth

Livelihood Project, and the Luxid Rotary Microfinance and

Polyclinic Project. Let me explain briefly why.

These projects have far reaching effect not only to the host

community. All three have the potential of making a difference

nationwide. As the projects started its operations this Rotary Year,

naturally, all of them experienced birth pains. But if we play our

Page 10: ROTARY CLUB OF · PDF file · 2017-07-12Tinig Newsletter July 13, 2017 Valle Verde Country Club July 13, 2017 – 12:00 Noon Call to Order Pres ... business and professional persons

Tinig Newsletter June 29, 2017

cards right, these three projects will solve a substantial pie of our

nation’s problem.

Let us take for example the Reintegration Project. Our

government is now deluged with drug surrenderees nationwide.

Most of the local governments units do not know what to do with

them as they lack rehabilitation facilities. In the Reintegration

Project, we partnered with the police and the local government

anti-drug department who are responsible for the identification of

drug surrenderees who will be trained as construction workers.

Those who will graduate are guaranteed to be employed by the

members of the PCA-Metropolitan Chapter. The PCA has

chapters in most of the progressive cities in the country whose

main problem is the lack of skilled construction workers. This is

not to mention the PCA National body whose members also faced

the same problem because of the boom of the construction

industry. Rotary Clubs are all over the country and if we can prove

to them that this project is effective and can work, then, it can be

replicated nationwide. In fact, I already talked to some PCA

Chapters and Rotary Clubs in the provinces and they are excited

about this program.

Now, let us take a look at the Water Hyacinth livelihood Project.

One of the culprits in the flooding of major cities and towns in our

country is the water hyacinth clogging the narrow waterways

leading to our major lakes and rivers. If we can convert this water

hyacinth to finished goods and sell it to international markets, we

can alleviate our flooding problems and, at the same time, provide

food on the table of our marginalized families. We can replicate

this endeavour nationwide.

The “5-6” issue has been with us since time immemorial. It drives

families to bankruptcy and businesses to a halt. This is the

problem that will be solved by the Luxid Rotary Microfinance and

Polyclinic Project. This robust project provides affordable health

care, and at the same time, gives earnings for its members.

Our Club is also providing monetary assistance to 67 high school

students of Rizal High School and 15 college students of

Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Pasig. We are also providing maternal

and child care and sanitation services in Sitio Iluguin in Brgy.

Pinagbuhatan Pasig five times a week.

Sad to say, none of these projects qualified for an award in any of

the Six Areas of Focus. But, as correctly stated by PP Topax

Colayco, “recognition is just icing on the cake. It’s the cake that

counts.”

I just thought that after I read the great offensive of RIDE Raffy to

the District, I need to broadcast what I felt about our projects and

how I am truly proud of serving this club as your president. This

is my last piece about this issue and I rest my case permanently.

I do not want to create controversy anymore. I have been

controversial all my life from grade school, high school, college,

in my first job in NHA, and even when I was president of PCAM.

I cannot write “30” without saying thank you for all the support.

My friends and brothers, thank you very much from the bottom of

my heart! My very last plea is for each one of us to give our

incoming President, Doc Jess, all the help we could give him.

MABUHAY ANG RC PASIG!

I prayed that there would have been a text brigade to repeat the

change of time and venue of our meeting tonight. Otherwise, the

dwindling attendance will dwindle some more.

Last meeting was the best of attendance of three meetings that IP

Jess handled BUT very poor pa din. But PPs Bert Albano and

Hermie Orbe were in attendance and that was good enough.

Did you notice in the reminder of IP Jess that we have to be either

in our blazers or in coat and tie? Please emphasize that in viber or

text messages to be able to make a good impression to our guests.

As usual, every June, are lavish plans to make us the premiere club

and the cohesive club that we would want us to believe, we have?

If attendance is poor, we cannot have the vaunted fellowship, the

strength of any Rotary Club.

A little birdie told me that PDG Marilou Co became a member of

the Arch Klumph Society. It was a big step in a Rotarized family.

Being a PDG couple for Tony & Marilou is outstanding enough,

Arch Klumph Society pa. They are class way ahead already. In the

Good Book, it was mentioned that those who have, many would

still be given to them. This is meant the use of talents and treasures

given Above. A week after arrival from Atlanta, Marilou won the

van raffled in the 50th

Anniversary of the founding of the

Greenhills Sanctuario de San Jose Church. Bawi ang pinang-Arch

Klumph, may sukli pa.

It seems IP Jess will have a harder time to get HM Ner to rejoin

us. Ner gave lechon, hard drinks and wine to honor our club with a

great year and have good plans for scholarship as Honorary

Member. His honorary membership ends tomorrow night. Would

Jess and his team award him another Honorary Membership, or,

active membership in the club? Abangan!

Congratulations and big thanks to Rtn. Ping, whose franchise for

the Four Way Test was challenged last week by PP Arjan. He has

donated the building of our temporary housing for the construction

of the Raffy Garcia building for our Joint Venture with the Ateneo

Group of PP Conrad. The Luxid Group of Conrad has maintained

their being ahead with money matters especially for the

cooperative that we have signed for. The Php 10,000.00 each

tapped by Conrad is for this purpose with the beneficiaries our

own Pasigueños.

Expect better attendance for an evening meeting. La Colina

beacons as we had many meetings here before when attendance

was better. Garrick will come for sure as he is a night owl. I hope

the likes of the many board members and officers of the outgoing

board will give a token of respect to outgoing POgie by being

around.

The only fruit of recruitment of a past president, Papa Tayengco,

is out of the country as these are the months he can enjoy Canada

where his only two daughters with their respective families are

based. PPA Boots & PP Bert have their annual sabbath there.

Last Monday was District Awards Night. POgie and his team

would have been there. The second day of new RY, tree planting

in district affairs now that our average age went down a bit but still

in the high side.

Baby Rtn. Marlo was also in Atlanta kaya he was not answering

his cellphone when he was tasked to defend his classification. The

father and son members of our club dwindled that only a handful

with PP Ramy and PE John Peter leading in assuming the

presidency. The father and son-in-law members greatly dwindled

too that now only PP Rhett and R.I.D.E. Raffy thru Rtn. Paul and

Director Nick, respectively, retained the status.

ROTARY AND THE BILL & MELINDA GATES

FOUNDATION ANNOUNCE $450 MILLION

COMMITMENT TO END POLIO

ATLANTA, Ga. (June 12, 2017) – Today in Atlanta Rotary President

John Germ and Bill Gates, co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates

Foundation, announced a commitment of up to $450 million to

support the eradication of polio.

To an audience of nearly 40,000 Rotary members attending the

humanitarian organization’s annual convention, Rotary and the Bill &

Melinda Gates Foundation renewed their longstanding support for

ending polio – a paralyzing, life-altering scourge on the verge of

becoming the second human disease ever to be eliminated. Rotary

committed to raise $50 million per year over the next three years,

with every dollar to be matched with two additional dollars from the

Gates Foundation. This expanded agreement will translate into $450

million for polio eradication activities, including immunization and

surveillance over the next three years. This critical funding helps

ensure countries around the world remain polio-free and that polio is

ended in the remaining three endemic countries: Afghanistan,

Nigeria, and Pakistan.

Continuation 1.

Bill Gates, co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and RI

President John Germ announce new pledges toward the polio

eradication effort at the Rotary Convention in Atlanta.

“In 2016, fewer children were paralyzed by polio than ever before,

thanks to the dedication of Rotary members and our partners,” said

Germ. “The paralysis of even one child by a preventable disease is

unacceptable, and I'm proud to see our members redoubling their

commitment to ensure we reach every single child with the polio

vaccine.”

In a partnership spanning a decade, Rotary and the Gates Foundation,

along with the other Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI)

partners, have led the effort to end polio worldwide. This funding

extension reaffirms a commitment established at the 2013 Rotary

Convention in Lisbon, Portugal, when the Gates Foundation pledged

to match Rotary contributions two-to-one, up to $35 million per year

through 2018. Rotary, including matching funds from the Gates

Foundation, has donated more than $1.6 billion to polio eradication.

“The vision of eradicating polio began with Rotary, and its support of

that effort has been unwavering for more than 35 years,” said Gates.

“Rotary’s commitment to raise $150 million over the next three years

to end polio forever is a testament to the compassion, generosity, and

kindness of more than a million Rotarians around the world.”

Today’s announcement comes on the heels of the news that world

governments and other donors have pledged to contribute US$1.2

billion total to the GPEI for polio eradication efforts. The government

funding—also announced today at the Rotary Convention—will

substantially help to close the US$1.5 billion funding gap, allowing

partners to immunize 450 million children every year and support

rigorous disease surveillance in both endemic and at-risk polio-free

countries. While the government funding announced today makes

considerable headway in the fight to end polio, continued support

from donors remains vital to achieve a polio-free world.

The global eradication of polio has been Rotary’s top priority since

1985. Through the Global Polio Eradication Initiative – a public-

private partnership that includes Rotary, the Bill & Melinda Gates

Foundation, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the

World Health Organization, and UNICEF – the incidence of polio has

plummeted by more than 99.9 percent, from about 350,000 cases a

year at the start of the initiative to just 37 cases in 2016.

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED ABOUT LIFE?

Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkness our skin?

Why women can’t put on mascara with their mouth closed?

Why you don’t ever see the headline: Psychic Wins Lottery?

Why ‘abbreviated’ is such a long word?

Why Doctors call what they do practice?

Why you have to click on ‘Start’ to stop Windows 98?

Why lemon juice is made with artificial flavour, while

dishwashing liquid is made with real lemons?

Why the man who invests all your money is called a Broker?

Why there isn’t mouse flavoured cat food?

Who tastes dog food when it has a ‘new & improved flavour?

Why Noah didn’t swat those two mosquitoes?

Why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?

Why they don’t make the whole plane out of the material used for

the indestructible black box?

Why sheep don’t shrink when it rains?

Why they are called apartments when they are all stuck together?

If con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of progress?

Why they call the airport ‘the terminal’ if flying is so safe?
