June 22, 1015 Grateful and happy to have received a citation from our Philippine Institute of Environmental Planners (PIEP) and Philippine Regulatory Commission (PRC) last June 18, 2015. Praise God for this humbling activity. In omnibus, amare et servire Domino. Ad majorem Dei gloriam. Pax et bonum.
June 21, 2015 Remembering our beloved departed Papa, Engr. Justo N. Lopez, Sr. on Fathers' Day. It is great that it falls on Summer Solstice, the first day of Summer in the USA. Godbless and cheers.
I have started this month to serve as Dean, Graduate School of Management and Center for Off-Campus Programs at Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, located in the heart of Old Manila in Intramuros.
The past few months have been very challenging as I have had to discern and decide about my future engagements in the education profession. I responded to the invitation to serve as Dean of the Graduate School of Management, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila after having been marginalized in the Graduate School that I helped grow the past 8 years. All good things come to an end and I am very grateful to God for the opportunities to have served. In my senior years I happily heed his call to serve with joy and gladness. Ave Maria, La Madre de Guia.
I am a licensed Philippine Environmental Planner but have shifted to education and development consulting. I am active in NGOs of fair trade and poverty-alleviation. My best friend of 25 years, Norman Bramble, was taken home by God last August 2008 and I am operating this blog to advance his memory and good works to less privileged people.
