The country’s first
Museum of Philippine Economic History has recently opened in what was once the
Ynchausti Commercial House in Calle Real in Iloilo, home of the company that
started what will eventually become the world’s number one rhum, Tanduay.
Before the National
Historical Commission restored the building into an economic history museum, it
was used as the provincial offices of the Commission on Audit. For the longest
time, however, it was known as the Elizalde building.
In 1854, according to
local historians, the building was home to a conglomerate Ynchausti y Compania
(also Ynchausti y Cia), whose founders were the basques José Joaquin Ynchausti,
Joaquin Elizalde and Valentin Teus. They consolidated their companies’ assets
including Tanduay. When the Elizaldes bought the Ynchausti shares in 1934, they
renamed the company to Elizalde Y Cia.
Other than historical
data, the museum showcases many of the important artifacts of companies that
thrived in Iloilo, especially during the golden days of the sugar industry.
Aside from being one of the oldest companies established in the country, the
Tanduay Distillery was featured in the museum because of its huge contribution
to the sugarcane industry.
There's a display of
an old Tanduay dama juana; early
advertising print ads of Tanduay; tools from the haciendas of
Western Visayas' sugar plantations; looms from the oldest weavers in Miagao,
Iloilo; and t'nalak cloth from South Cotabato, among many
others.
“Tanduay has a rich history that started in the island of Negros. As we celebrate the 165th year of Tanduay Distillers this year, we would like to ensure that Tanduay will always be remembered, especially by the next of generations of Filipinos. The Tanduay Museum will be housed at our old office in Quiapo, where Ynchausti Y Cia operated their liquor facility. We plan to restore part of the original building, but since it will be a brand museum, expect that it will have a modern façade and will utilize technology at par with the world’s contemporary museums.”~Lucio K. Tan, Jr., President and Chief Operating Officer, Tanduay Distillers, Inc.
Incidentally, as part
of its anniversary celebration, the Lucio Tan Group-owned Tanduay Distillers,
Inc has embarked on the conversion of its distillery in Manila into a museum
that will showcase its rich and colorful history. It will likewise give its
visitors a multi-sensory experience on how its products are made.
It is appropriate that these items are housed at the Ynchausti Commercial House, which was built in 1905 and used as a trading store. Like most Spanish colonial houses in the country, it is the typical bahay-na-bato with solid red-brick walls on the first floor and wood panels on the second floor. It also has wide Capiz-shell windows that are a distinct design of old Spanish houses.
Every day, we’re flooded with
endless tasks, whether at work or at school. While it may be easy to be bogged
down by the daunting work ahead, the key is to re-focus on the things that get
us up and actually make us happy.
Here
are three tips to keep you in good spirits and ready for the everyday grind:
Surround yourself with people
that uplift you
Keeping
the right people by your side can completely change your life. There’s no
better motivation than being surrounded by friends and loved ones who inspire
you to be the best that you can be and who cheer you on in the process.
Engage in activities that will
elevate your life
Do
you have a passion project that you’ve always wanted to pursue? Why not give it
a try? Immersing yourself in hobbies, developing your talents, or learning new skills
during your spare time are things that can really enrich your life.
Indulge in instant mood boosters
Sometimes
the simple joys make all the difference. Watching an episode of your favorite
series, dancing and singing along to your favorite song, or even playing a
quick game on your smartphone can help reduce some stress and instantly boost
your mood.
Nowadays,
technology is seamlessly intertwined with most of our life moments, so it’s
important to find a tool that enhances these experiences. Luckily, Vivo
smartphones are here to empower you with cutting-edge technologies that elevate
every day moments.
Capturing
the best moments with friends and family is easier with Vivo smartphone’s

Glenmark Philippines, Inc., an affiliate of a leading research-based pharmaceutical company Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, conduct a “First Aid for Kids Training” through its brand on wound care, Foskina Ointment. Held at SMX Convention Center, SM Aura, Taguig City, February 24, 2019 from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm.
It's an afternoon of fun and learning to know the basic training that is vital for saving lives especially for my family. I almost forgot how to do the CPR, good thing I got to attend this event and refresh my mind how to do it again properly with the step by step procedure. In addition to CPR training, Choking and First Aid training for a wound are additional learnings I discover with this event.
Dr. Daniel Luchangco MD begin the training for basic application of CPR. He demonstrates the proper and step by step procedure when conducting CPR in times of emergency. We got the chance also to ask some few questions to clarify our inquiries and doubts.
Parents and Child attendees experience how to execute the proper CPR by doing it on the dummy human and babies.
Kids in this age range are usually prone to cuts, scrapes, and burns, acquired either at home, school or other areas like malls, parks, and playgrounds where they are most physically active. Thus, it is of utmost importance that parents and school facilitators are knowledgeable when it comes to applying first aid as the “first responders” on proper wound care management and in other cases of emergencies.
Among the highlights of the training, cover wound care and burn management, allergies and bites, and CPR and choking. The lectures and hands-on demos will be led by the team behind Early Intervention Management, Dr. Dan Luchangco from the Emergency Department of the Makati Medical Center and Dr. Joy Sto. Domingo, Chairman of the VRP Emergency Medicine Consultants.
Glenmark aims to increase awareness about the value of knowing the application of basic first aid, particularly among parents and school facilitators of pre-school and kindergarteners.
Media partners for the event include Manila Bulletin (Digital), Channel Hue, Experience Travel and Living magazine and Moms & Kids Magazine.
Happy Walk was held in celebration of the National Syndrome Consciousness Month and is an annual activity that promotes awareness, acceptance and inclusivity of persons with Down Syndrome into society. Happy Walk was organized by the Down Syndrome Association of the Philippines, Inc. (DSAPI), in partnership with SM Cares.
The Down Syndrome Association of the Philippines, Inc. (DSAPI) is a non-stock, non-profit organization, founded in 1991 by a group of dedicated and committed parents and concerned physicians. It aims to offer support to families who have a child with Down Syndrome and to initiate, develop, promote, encourage and support programs and projects concerning Down Syndrome.
An estimated 6,000 attendees comprised of families, schools, supporters, advocates, and SM employees, celebrated the triumphant life stories of people with Down Syndrome and their families at the 17th Happy Walk for Down Syndrome, which took place at the SMX Convention Center, Manila last February 24, 2019.
A parade around the SM Mall of Asia complex followed after the program allowing children with Down Syndrome, together with their families, to interact with the shoppers and tenants of the mall.
The event featured performances from children affected with the condition, celebrity performances, and fun interactive booths.
“Having a child with Down Syndrome has been one of the most remarkable experiences for me, as well as for countless parents and families. Some experiences can be so powerful that they have long-lasting and life-changing impacts on our lives.” DSAPI Chairman Mr. Elmer F. Lapeña shares.
“The Happy Walk is certainly one of the biggest events that continues to make beautiful stories for families to enjoy, to have fun, to be with one another, to treasure.” DSAPI Chairman Mr. Elmer F. Lapeña adds.
“At SM, we recognize the ever-changing needs of the members of the community where we are present, and the more we celebrate our relationship with groups like DSAPI, the more that we understand what needs to be developed in making a welcoming mall, including persons with disability.” said Bien Mateo, SVP of SM Supermalls and Director for SM Cares Program on PWDs.
The event was graced by Hans Sy, Chairman of the Executive Committee of SM Prime Holdings together with US Ambassador to the Philippines H.E. Sung Kim and Ambassador designate for the Royal Thai Embassy, H.E. Vasin Ruangprateepsaeng, who have both long supported the advocacies of SM and DSAPI.
Simultaneously, SM City Bacolod also joined the celebration and had their walk as well.
SM Cares is the Corporate Social Responsibility arm of SM Prime Holdings, Inc. Its advocacies include Programs on Persons with Disabilities, Children and Youth, Women and Breastfeeding Mothers, Environment Sustainability, Senior Citizens, and Overseas Filipino Workers (SM Global Pinoy).
A whole day of family fun, bonding, and entertainment has enjoyed by the families, relatives, and friends of people with down syndrome. SM has prepared some activities they can enjoy in a day.
It's an unexplainable feeling of happiness every time I saw people with down syndrome expressing their smiles and how great they are despite their conditions. I salute the family and relatives taking care of them. God Bless you all people with a kind heart.
As a responsible integrated property developer, SM ensures that its CSR programs serve as a catalyst for positive change in the communities that it supports. To know more about SM Cares, you may visit www.smcares.com.ph, www.facebook.com/OfficialSMCares or email smcares@smsupermalls.com.
