From The Desk of The Chair: Celebrating 20 Years and Looking Forward!
Excerpts- for full message, click here
Dear members, partners and friends,
Our council turned 20! It is a significant milestone in the life of any organisation, an occasion to celebrate, reflect on the past as well as lessons learned and to look forward to the future.
The PBC was established under the initiative of the then Philippine Ambassador to the UAE, Amable Aguiluz III, in April 2001 dedicated to promoting and improving the UAE-Philippines relations and the development of bilateral trade.
Our council is continuously evolving, this year, as part of good governance, we are reviewing again our Constitution and Bylaws to ensure that they embody the PBC’s goals, activities and operations. We are also revamping the website to give it a fresh and modern look. Likewise, we are creating more subcommittees and programmes and have initiated process improvement to make our council more efficient.
Looking forward, we will continue to review our council’s strategic objectives, strengthen and nurture our relationship with you and continue to build our council’s legitimacy ensuring that its programmes and services have a tangible impact on you and the rest of the Filipino community we serve, remaining true to the PBC-DNE’s mantra – connecting people, bridging businesses.
Mabuhay ang PBC-DNE at Mabuhay ho tayong lahat!
Maraming salamat ho and stay safe.
Warmest regards,
Bobbie Carella
PS
We will celebrate PBC-DNE’s 20th birthday with a physical event as soon as possible!
