Besting some of the biggest and best corporations in the region is entertainment firm DigiP|us Interactive Corp. This is the same institution behind giants B!ng0P|us, Aren@P|us, and G@meZon3. This is monumental because it's all about corporate governance, and this is a first for them to earn a Golden Arrow Award.
They were given last October 23 in ceremonies hosted by the Institute of Corporate Directors and PH Domestic Ranking Body. This also contributes to the scorecard of the ASEAN Corporate Governance, an honor only given to a few talented Filipinos.
Their transparency efforts has never gone unnoticed and this is just one of the reasons why they got a highly coveted Golden Arrow Award. They put importance on transparency, accountability and several of their their advocacies. Make sure you follow them on their socials so if they have activities of the same you'll get notified too!
Now don't go and say I didn't tell you about it! Congratulations again!
There is still prevalent hunger in the country and we have to address it. Aside from that, there is a deep concern about sanitation especially when the uneventful things happen. Recently, BingoPlus Foundation took initiative in bringing in over a thousand groceries, food packs and sanitation kits for evacuees in Negros Occidental because of the eruption of Mount Kanlaon. This was done with local government officials of La Castellana and the Nikki Cares Foundation.
This was in support of the First lady's "Lab for All" medical program where BingoPlus Foundation organized volunteers and logistics in a medical mission for a little over 8000 indigents in the region. They also did this for those in General Santos City, giving 500 folks needed flu vaccines specifically in Purok Mapailubon, plus necessary sanitation facilities to be utilized by different barangays in the area.
They also launched and funded a Dressmaking Training Center for residents of San Isidro, together with their government partners TESDA and DOLE. This is through their KabuhayanPLUS livelihood program which has several projects across the country. This is part of their Barangay Bigayan initiatives which addresses community issues whether it is for service, health and infrastructure needs. They are also moving to put in something for emergency preparedness rather than just doing post disaster responses. This is why DigiPlus President Andy Tsui wants to do in every emergency they have to go to. This is their vision for BingoPlus Foundation which he heads.
We're no stranger to Pioneer and how they have developed affordable insurance services in the country. They have several branches in Metro Manila but quite a few know that they're actually easy to see online too. They've launched a couple of months ago the Pioneer Insure Shop at https://shop.pioneer.com.ph/ and I was lucky enough to experience getting covered there for an out of town adventure, much more apt for those who are into outdoor sports or extreme sports as they call it. Now it's easy to get everything with a few clicks if you need Travel and Health insurance.
Here's some snippets from the event:
Oh and if you're going to Europe soon, you might want to get their Travel Light package which costs very low than industry standards, and even go the mile helping you with Weather Reports, Health Precautions, Immunizations, Required Visas, Interpreter Referral, Lost Baggage, Lost Passport Assistance, Embassy and Consular Information. That's already an arm and a leg of service but they're practically giving it for a low amount, you should call if you need that soon. If I only knew they had it I would have taken it for my folk's Ireland trip. Anyway, I'd probably call 7505433 next time or email them if I decide to push through with my trip (perhaps later this year).
There were a ton of us there during the event. We had fun talking to Pioneer executives and their team, plus the people from MacPower. MacPower Marketing Corporation is an IT and Accessories distributor in the Philippines that carries tons of brands in their arsenal. Whether it's audio, video, or just about anything that you can stick in your phone, they have it on their silos. You may get them in Switch stores, selected 7-11 outlets metro wide. Aside from that, I took interest with the ones they brought in the event. Take a look at these!
The Lumee case, the ultimate selfie tool used by Kim Kardashian and their whole family! This just looks so good no matter what the condition your lighting is. Costs around 3K for the iPhone 6 case and about a few hundred more for the iPhone 6 Plus.
This Wetsuit Impact case makes your phone almost indestructible, like a 30lb weight won't break it, and even makes your phone hella waterproof. Or maybe that's another case lol.
The Belkin Family Rockstar leaves you with tons of space for your other gadgets to charge in. The 4 port usb charger just rocks in my books. I didn't get one during the contest and I was a little sad LOL.
The good news is, MacPower is selling some of their gadgets together with the Pioneer Insurance coverages so when you buy something from them, you get to go out on adventures while you're covered for FREE. Now that's good news by any standard. To know more about Macpower, please check them out at https://www.facebook.com/MacpowerPH. Hopefully soon we could get some of their devices reviewed here too as they're very eager to lend us some of their wares. Now I'm extra excited!
Thank you Pioneer and Macpower Marketing Corporation for having us in your gathering! It was a pleasure meeting you all!
