PH joins World Investment Forum 2018, Calls for Improved Focus on Sustainable Development
THE Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), through Undersecretary for Trade and Investments Promotion Group (TIPG) Nora Kakilala Terrado, participated in the World Investment Forum (WIF) 2018 and joined the universal call to address global investment-related issues and advance sustainable development for all.
Anchored on the theme: “Investing in Sustainable Development,” the WIF 2018 was held from October 22-26 and served as an avenue for world leaders to unite and devise policies, strategies, and solutions that can solve challenges in attaining the Sustainable Development Goals or SDGs.
Organized by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), the forum was opened by Swiss President Alain Berset at the United Nations’ European hub Palais de Nations. The biennial forum gathered 6,000 participants from 160 countries composed of heads of states, high-level government executives, UN officials, and investment stakeholders in the private sector.
Joining the Philippine delegation to the WIF 2018, Undersecretary Terrado represented the country in various discussions and shared with other delegates the initiatives and plans of the Philippines for its digital economy transition as well as the continuous developments of its special economic zones (SEZs). On behalf of the Philippine government, Terrado discussed the importance of improved policies and reforms in areas of trade and investments.
The delegation was composed of Budget Secretary Benjamin Diokno, Commission on Audit Director Luzvi Chatto and Assistant Commissioner Lourdes Castillo, Helen Alcantara of the Department of Finance, and Leonard Flores and Roya Malaluan of the City Government of General Santos.
As part of her engagements in the week-long forum, Terrado on October 23 joined the session on “Investment and the Digital Economy,” where leading investors ranging from infrastructure providers, financial backers and digital firms such as Alibaba, Huawei, Vertex, Intel, and Groupe Speciale Mobile Association (GSMA) participated.
During the session, Terrado discussed investments in the digital economy, along with innovative practices and policies that have facilitated investors in channelling contributions that help close the digital divide. Her special remarks also highlighted the Philippines’ Inclusive Innovation Industrial Strategy or i3s.
The i3s, according to Terrado, complements the government’s thrust to promote an innovation ecosystem in the country—with different sectors partnering to generate more jobs and improved business opportunities.
“The I3S is aimed at growing innovative and globally competitive manufacturing, agriculture, and services, while strengthening their linkages into domestic and global value chains,” Terrado said.
Meanwhile, at the “Ministerial Roundtable on 21st Century Global Investment Policymaking,” which was conducted on October 25 with 15 ministers and other high-level capital officials, the undersecretary shared the Philippines’ experiences in coming up with modern and sustainable development-oriented investment policies.
Terrado stated that while there is a need for collective action to achieve the SDGs, “policymaking is much slower than the pace of technology.”
“These challenges require more operative engagements with different local institutions involved in the SDG, not only in the government but also in the business sector, civil society groups, the academe, and even in the media,” she said.
Also, the undersecretary served as a panellist at the session on “Challenges and Opportunities in Special Economic Zones” held on October 26, which highlighted the important role of SEZs as incubators to support SDG initiatives.
At the caucus, she joined Investment Promotion Authority (IPA) officials from China, India, UAE, Brazil, Nigeria, and India, who shared lessons in designing the right infrastructure, facilitation services, and incentives—creating economies of scale and promoting transfer of technology in the zones—to develop zone models that can solve each country’s needs.
Terrado also took the opportunity to cite the high-quality service of the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) by operating “non-stop” shops all over the country, enabling the agency to offer red-carpet treatments to investors.
The WIF 2018 consisted of more than 50 parallel events including the Global Leaders Investment Summit, Global Investment Game Changers Summit, private sector-led sessions, “TED-style” presentations, high-profile stakeholder roundtables, networking events, and awarding ceremonies, among others. UNCTAD also organised an “Investment Village,” which featured more than 50 investment promotion agencies around the world including the Philippines.
On the sidelines of the WIF 2018, Terrado also met with UNCTAD officials and discussed technical assistance and capacity building projects for the Philippines in areas of e-commerce and trade facilitation.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of the forum whose previous editions took place in Accra in 2008; Xiamen, 2010; Doha, 2012; and Nairobi in 2016.

“The fitness industry is truly tight and competitive. With that said, my team and I created Fitness Revolution to foster camaraderie and support with the end goal of promoting the concept of “health and fitness as an investment” rather than expense,” said Nesh Zamora, creator of Fitness Revolution.
It will be an interactive weekend filled with free activities to highlight and promote various classes offered by our participating gyms. There are lots of activities to choose from such as zumba, yoga, HIIT, parkour fitness, belly dance, kickboxing, pound rockout workout, body combat, women’s self defense, circuit training, cage fitness and many more.

“Entrance fee is P200 only. You will get a lot out of your money at Fitness Revolution granting that a per session walk-in rate on gyms would usually cost around P500 to P700. Aside from achieving your health goals in one weekend, you also get to shop for loved ones there if you’re looking to avoid the holiday rush,” added Zamora.

FWD Life Philippines Launches Set for Tomorrow, Financial Protection for Those You Leave Behind
FWD Life Philippines, one of the country’s fastest-growing life insurers, has introduced a series of
new protection plans that can be tailored to meet individual customer needs.
“FWD’s Set for Tomorrow will provide protection for the people we love and care about. The
coverage amount and period can be customized to any personal situation and budget. Our aim is to
make real and substantial protection accessible to everyone,” said FWD Life Philippines President
and Chief Executive Officer Peter Grimes.
Dubbed Set for Tomorrow, the insurance product has three variants that address the different needs
to take care of those left behind should the unexpected happen—Short Term Cover, Income
Protector, and Estate Protector.
“Set for Tomorrow caters to Filipinos from 18 to 70 years of age, from young urban professionals to
retirees,” Peter added. “With very basic social security, many professionals have an enormous
protection gap.”
Taking responsibility to protect those you love
In today’s uncertain world, FWD’s latest insurance product is there to protect the ones you love.
Three common reasons that lead to financial problems for those left behind include:
- People have loans and accountabilities that are transferred to their family if they are no longer around.
- Raising a family requires time and money. Also, if the breadwinner falls away, the family will still need money to continue living a life with dignity.
- People who build up wealth worry about what they leave behind and especially how to best avoid a family crisis in settling estate taxes and dividing assets. As part of any estate planning solution, long-term insurance coverage is essential to evenly share the assets and ensure those left behind feel equally treated.
Solutions that provide guaranteed protection and give you peace of mind
FWD’s Set for Tomorrow has three variants that meet the needs of the modern Filipino. Short Term
Cover is an affordable term life plan that provides guaranteed life insurance coverage for five or 10
years.
Income Protector ensures that your family can continue their life even if you are no longer around.
Lastly, Estate Protector is a whole-life plan that provides guaranteed life insurance coverage until
120 years of age.
FWD wants to guide people in fitting the right variant, protection amount, coverage period, and
payment terms to the customer’s preferences and abilities. With this in mind, FWD launched online
calculator “Cali”. By answering just a few questions, Cali allows you to determine the best solution
for you and your budget. To find out the Set for Tomorrow plan that’s perfect for your budget and
insurance needs, simply visit www.cali.ph/SetForTomorrow.
FWD’s Set for Tomorrow plans are now available through FWD Life’s Financial Wealth Planners.
Interested customers may call the 24/7 FWD Customer Connect Hotline at (02) 888-8388 or chat
with a Customer Connect Executive via FWD’s 24/7 Live Chat (www.fwd.com.ph) to set an
appointment. The plans will also soon be available at all branches of Security Bank, FWD’s
bancassurance partner.

BRANDON VERA TO DEFEND ONE HEAVYWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP AGAINST MAURO CERILLI AT ONE: CONQUEST OF CHAMPIONS
Filipino-American Brandon “The Truth” Vera is a mixed martial arts veteran with a 15-7, 1 NC professional record. He joined ONE Championship in 2014 after competing for over a decade as one of the world’s best martial arts talents. A devastating striker known for his thunderous leg kicks as well as his well-rounded skills, Vera captured the ONE Heavyweight World Championship with a stunning knockout victory over Paul Cheng in December of 2015. In his last bout, Vera dominated Japanese challenger Hideki “Shrek” Sekine to win via technical knockout in the first round, successfully defending his title. Now Vera returns to defend his ONE Heavyweight World Championship once again, this time against Mauro Cerilli.
Mauro “The Hammer” Cerilli of Italy is a mixed martial artist with a professional record of 12-2. He is a Cage Warriors Heavyweight Champion and a certified finisher known for his knockout power and submission skills. Cerilli is currently riding a five-bout win streak, with four of those wins ending with emphatic knockouts. In his latest outing, Cerilli stopped Karl Moore of Ireland in just 15 seconds. “The Hammer” now joins ONE Championship and is set to make his promotional debut in the main event of ONE: CONQUEST OF CHAMPIONS, challenging veteran Brandon Vera for the ONE Heavyweight World Championship.
Former lightweight titleholder Eduard “Landslide” Folayang of Baguio City, Philippines is an alumni of the Philippine Wushu Team, winning 11 medals including three golds at the SEA Games to become a national hero. Not long after his amateur martial arts career, the Team Lakay veteran took up mixed martial arts and became a professional athlete under the guidance of Filipino martial arts pioneer Mark Sangiao. In 2016, Folayang scored his signature victory when he took on Shinya Aoki, shocking the Japanese legend with a third round knockout to capture the lightweight title. Folayang’s childhood hero Manny Pacquiao called him “one of the legends of mixed martial arts in the Philippines,” elevating the Filipino to superstar status. He now faces Amir Khan for a chance to capture the vacant ONE Lightweight World Championship.
Former Singaporean Muay Thai champion Amir Khan moved to the United States to attend high school in Louisiana, where he began cross-training in wrestling and Brazilian jiu-jitsu under BJJ black belt Relson Gracie. Upon returning to Singapore in 2014, Khan joined Evolve MMA and became a part of its famed competition team. He then joined ONE that same year, and has since accumulated several highlight-reel finishes, showcasing his immense talent and growing skills. In his most recent bout, Khan shocked highly-regarded Filipino lightweight veteran Honorio “The Rock” Banario, winning by first round submission. A winner of eight of his last nine bouts, Khan has earned a shot at the lightweight title and will face Eduard Folayang for the vacant ONE Lightweight World Championship.

The Itchyworms Return to Singapore to Scratch an Itch
It has been almost a decade since The Itchyworms performed in the city-state of Singapore.
The now-iconic Marina Bay Sands was still under construction, for one, and Universal Studios
was probably still in blueprints.
The last time the band was there in 2008, they performed in a double bill with Marcus Adoro.
First, to serve as his backup band, playing songs from his seminal solo album, Markus Highway ,
and second, to play their own songs. The night ended in an epic extended jam on old
Eraserheads songs.
The years have only made the band’s wanderlust — itch, to borrow from their name — for
Singapura that much more insistent. The hunger for the hawker holy grail that is authentic laksa
is quite real, and so is the thirst for performing in front of new audiences, such as Singapore’s
music-loving folk, whether expats or locals.
Now, the band will finally get to scratch their decade-old itch for Singapore! The Itchyworms
have partnered with the awesome people of Pinoy-powered events group Requiem Rising SG,
to bring you an extraordinary one-night only musical experience. On 03 November, all paths
lead to Hero’s Bar. Whether your hankering is for food, drink, or really good music, it’s sure to
be satisfied.

ASUS Republic of Gamers Closes ESGS 2018 with the Launch of the ROG Phone
ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) finally debuted the much-awaited and critically-acclaimed gaming smartphone, the ASUS ROG Phone, taking the Electronic Sports and Gaming Summit (ESGS) main stage by storm with much fanfare from hardcore fans. Following its long-awaited Philippine launch, the hardcore gamers’ status symbol will be available for pre-order from October 28 – November 8, 2018 – with the choice to include the full array of its gameplay-enhancing accessories.
“The mobile gaming landscape in the country continues to expand aggressively, giving birth to numerous professional eSports teams dedicated solely to mobile gaming. We’ve supported this growth with ASUS’ mobile products that cater to mobile gamers, starting with the ZenFone Max Pro M1,” shared ASUS Philippines Country Manager George Su. “We take this support one step further with the ultimate gaming smartphone for hardcore mobile gamers, the ROG Phone; a testament to our tireless commitment to empower the local mobile eSports scene.”
ROG PHONE: THE TRUE GAME CHANGER
Since its grand unveiling during Computex 2018 in Taiwan, the ROG Phone gained notoriety among media, fans, and supporters worldwide, ultimately becoming one of the most sought after smartphones of the year, with crowds from around the globe clamoring for more information on the device, as well as incessantly demanding for its official arrival in their local scene.
The ROG Phone is a game-changing 6-inch smartphone designed specifically for high-performance mobile gaming. With pure ROG gaming DNA at its core, the ROG Phone is the first and currently the only smartphone to be powered by the world's fastest speed-binned 2.96GHz octa-core Qualcomm™ Snapdragon™ 845 Mobile Platform with gaming-optimized Qualcomm™ Adreno™ 630 GPU.
WHERE RIVALS FEAR TO TREAD
The ROG Phone breaks every rule to go where rivals fear to tread–its unique GameCool vapor-chamber cooling system — with detachable AeroActive Cooler for an extra cooling boost — sustains blur-free high frame rates in the heat of battle, while its no-compromise Full HD+ AMOLED display blends a blazing 90Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time with gorgeous HDR visuals.
The ultra-comfortable design of ROG Phone includes unique side-mounted ports, and the enhanced, ultra-responsive game controls — including two programmable ultrasonic AirTriggers and advanced force-feedback haptics — let gamers focus all their game, giving them the edge they need to win.
GEARED FOR ALL KINDS OF BATTLE
On its own, the ROG Phone alone is already an amazing smartphone for mobile gamers. It also goes above and beyond, with a wide array of accessories that make it an even more complete gaming platform.
Whether you fancy a dual-display mobile gaming rig, streaming your mobile games wirelessly to a 4K display, or a full desktop experience on your smartphone, ROG Phone has got you covered.
