Acting PhilTA President Villanueva gathers key stakeholders in an effort to make 
a world-class tennis association for the Philippines

Promoting reform in Philippine tennis, Randy Villanueva, PHILTA's acting president, organized the Philippine Tennis Summit that gathered local stakeholders of tennis to discuss the present state of the industry and identified action plans towards its improvement.


During the Philippine Tennis Summit on September 6, stakeholders, including tennis coaches, players, parents, sponsors, regional representatives and PhilTA officials, among others, along with members of the media, gathered at the Makati Sports Club where issues on Philippine tennis were brought forth. Villanueva, one of the individuals who spearheaded the gathering, presented the current state of Philippine tennis, citing the need to improve the country’s standing in international competitions, increase the number of tennis players in the country, and attract them to become members of the national tennis association that represents the International Tennis Federation in the Philippines, among others.


Villanueva laid down the plans for Philippine tennis, identifying a strategy that starts with changes within the existing organization, followed by milestones that will create funding and resources, enables extensive training programs, and makes way for a consistent supply of high-caliber Filipino tennis players before reaching the ultimate goal of becoming a world-class tennis association. He elaborated that for him to consider the vision of becoming a world-class tennis association, the country should have at least two Olympians, at least two players in the top 100 of the ATP & WTA rankings, four junior players in the Top 100 of the ITF boys’ and girls’ categories, qualify for the Fed Cup World Group, and qualify for the Davis Cup World, all by 2024.

He stressed that to be able to achieve all of these, there’s a need to augment the current set-up of the current national tennis association to make way for positive changes specifically in making Philippine tennis inclusive to many. This will pave the way for more active memberships from tennis players, increase in pooling of talents, and make the association more sustainable in terms of funding.

“There’s really a need to amend the organization if we are to become a world-class association. The association right now is being run by just 12 people who do not represent any Philippine tennis stakeholders, region or clubs. I think it’s very important that we make it more inclusive to everyone and encourage more participation from the whole Philippine tennis community,” said Villanueva.


One of those elated to hear Villanueva’s vision for Philippine tennis is sports patron and PhilTA chairman of the board, Jean Henri Lhuillier.


“It’s refreshing to have this Philippine Tennis Summit and hear the great plans of Villanueva to move forward Philippine tennis. As always, I’ll be here to support in whatever capacity I can to bring to fruition PhilTA’s plans,” said Lhuillier.


During the summit, Villanueva also advised that he initiated the event in an effort to uplift Philippine tennis and clarifies that he does not have any plans to run for the presidency in the organization’s next election and is just happy to be able to lay down the work for whoever will succeed him.

Pizza Hut serves fresh, hot, fast new website
  
Pizza Hut, the country’s food delivery expert, has launched a new website that’s designed not only to change the way you order your favorite pizza, but also to set a new standard when it comes to ordering food online for delivery.

Lorent Adrias Head of Marketing- PizzaHut

“We have always been known as the pioneer and expert in food delivery in the Philippines, and this is borne out of our commitment to provide our customers fresh, hot food fast wherever they are,” shares Pizza Hut Philippines marketing head Lorent Adrias. “But technology and our fast-paced lifestyles are changing the way we perceive convenience when it comes to ordering our food, so we thought to show our customers that we remain serious in our delivery service with the new website.”

Pizza Hut Philippines’ new website, www.pizzahut.com.ph, now has an easy-to-use interface that cuts through identity verification, redirection, and complicated re-ordering. Customers only need to create new log-on details to grant them access to site-exclusive promos. Ordering is made easy for all registrants as they can place their orders through the “Order Now” button.


Pizza lovers can now choose to order anytime, anywhere by selecting “delivery” if they want to order but need to stay put, or “carryout” if they want to pick-up their take-out order at the nearest Pizza Hut branch. They can even set the exact time they want to get their Pizza Hut items through the “Now” or “Later” button!
 

Finding the Pizza Hut restaurant closest to a site user’s location has become hassle-free, as it takes only 2 clicks in the new website to do it. After finalizing orders, customers can check-out by registering a new account, filling out their contact details, choosing their preferred payment method, and agreeing to the site’s Terms of Use.


Pizza Hut’s revamped website also makes delivery great by remembering the last items ordered, so there’s no need to repeat going through complicated steps just to re-order favorites on the next site visit. It also has two sections devoted entirely to deals exclusive to those with online accounts: Promos and Coupons, both immediately visible on the homepage.


Finally, the new online site is now responsive on mobile phones and tablets, making it easier to navigate on different screen sizes across devices. “Whether it’s in the middle of a rushed group project overlapping with lunch or dinner, a surprise announcement that calls for a celebration, rushing between two parties, or just spending a cozy, long-overdue “me time” at home, it’s now easier and faster to enjoy great meals,” Adrias adds.



And to celebrate the arrival of the new website, Pizza Hut rewards all new customers placing their orders online with a free regular Hawaiian Supreme Pizza for a minimum spend of P500 for a limited time!
 


Pizza Hut Mexican Dynamite
 

No more excuses to skip a meal or miss out on a chance to celebrate. Enjoy the best of food delivery now and order mouth-watering pizzas and other Pizza Hut items online, hassle-free at www.pizzahut.com.ph today and Pizza Party Galore na!!!

Gateway Mall is a bit far from my place. But once in awhile, I go visit for there are a lot of good finds and promotional "sale" that you'll never find anywhere else. But this post is not about it. Still keeping it a secret :P maybe on my next post hahaha.

NLI TO MAKE DREAMS COME TO LIFE IN PAMPANGA
Local Developer Bolsters Real Estate Game with Montana Views

Horizontal community development takes a solid turn for NorthPine Land, Inc. (NLI) as the trusted developer launched its pioneer project in the North hailed as Montana Views.


After 20 years of responding to the real estate demand in South Luzon and Metro East, NLI is finally steering northward for more property developments in the region. Property finders like Lamudi and Zipmatch report about several emerging business and residential developments in Pampanga. Tourism, business, leisure and more lifestyle destinations are also thriving in the region.  Moreover, since it is home to many OFWs who take up a huge percentage of the real estate market and contribute about 10% of the country’s income, the demand for the property sector is stably rising. For these reasons, NLI looks forward to making more dreams come to life in Pampanga and introducing its own brand of real estate.


“Montana Views will set NorthPine’s footprint in North Luzon. Property development in Pampanga shows a vibrant promise and we are thrilled to play an active part in it to reach more people and make their dreams of owning a home come to life,” shared Alan R. Cruz, President for NLI.  

Life Shines Anew


The expansive property where Montana Views is currently being developed offers a refreshing view of the majestic Mount Arayat and is blessed with an abundant sunrise. As NLI promises to introduce a new kind of lifestyle for future residents in Pampanga, it is a home for bright opportunities in life, hence the catchphrase “Life shines anew”.
  
Bryn and Aven model units.
Montana Views will feature Modern American Country-themed house models that will appeal to the discriminating taste of the mid-income market. Fresh and exciting hues add up to the smart facades carefully designed by NLI’s Planning Team. Homebuyers have a variety of floor space options with units ranging from 60 sq. m. to 130 sq. m.

Quincy Model House

Lindsey Model House
Kendra Model House
Future expansion and development should be expected for Montana Views. When completed, the neighborhood will have stylish and well-functional amenities such as pocket parks, basketball court and swimming pool.

The Allure of Pampanga
The development for Montana Views was set in motion early this year. Situated at Brgy. Calulut City of San Fernando bordering Mexico, Pampanga, the property is just a few turns away from MacArthur Highway. This makes daily destinations accessible as San Fernando’s city proper is just 6.5 kilometers away.

Historical Landmarks and Tourists Spot in Pampanga
Appreciating Pampanga with NorthPineLand Inc.

Pampanga appeals to people looking to buy a property or finding a stable work. Being one of the country’s booming locations outside Metro Manila for business, lifestyle and real estate, several establishments such as malls, amusement parks and business hubs are rapidly increasing here.

#TeamByaherosMNL
Pampanga is just over an hour’s drive away from Manila and adjacent areas in North Luzon via major highways like NLEX and SCTEX. Additionally, Clark Special Economic Zone, one of its prided spots and now a growing career hub, has an international airport that offers a huge service to residents nearby.


  
Cruz stated, “We have a great deal to offer in this new project. Expect that NLI will add value to living through innovations that we constantly pursue. Like what we did in the South, we are confident Montana Views will be a game-changer for NorthPine.”

Bloggers Squad for Pampanga Appreciation Tour with NorthPine Land Inc.

Montana Views will mark NorthPine Land’s initial venture in the North. This bold move will test the company’s mettle in adapting to new environments and cultures and also in exploring and introducing innovative designs and functions in property development. NLI boldly looks at making more dreams come to life for Central Luzon’s mid-income market.

I grew up with my "Tatay" a true blue Kapampangan from San Fernando Pampanga and having a good food is a must in our table. Mind you, pintasero yan if di masarap :P RIP Tatay, D'yan ka lang :) Plus, living in a community surrounded by Kapampangan's, (Bo. Sta Maria and Bo. Kapampangan in Paco) the blood and culture? I think already deep within me. 

Now I'm missing Pampanga. Di na kami nakabalik since Tatay migrated to  heaven. Miss ko na ang mga luto nya and pasyalan dun. So whenever there are events to cover in that city. I'm all in!
