Ruben & Janet Nepales: A Fate Written in the Stars

“BELIEVE in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.” - Rainer Maria Rilke

Ruben and Janet Nepales exchanged vows at the Albertson’s wedding chapel on Wilshire, under an arch of fake flowers and a stained curtain. Despite the simple and somewhat tacky venue, the uncommon richness and high notes of their true love was undeniable on that special day.

Archimedes C. Gomez: Promoting business opportunities in the Philippines to Fil-Ams

Bright economic prospects continue to boost Philippine shares, according to an article in The Philippine Star (January 10, 2012 issue). Kristine Liu of Xinhuanet.com wrote that “Investors’ optimism on the Philippine economy continue to send share prices climbing on Tuesday (Jan 10, 2012) to a new record high of 4,591.26 before tapering off by the final bell.”

This positive outlook on the country’s economy is shared by a lot of businessmen. Babe Romualdez wrote in Spybits (of The Philippine Star) a couple of weeks ago that the Filipinos’ optimism is “now paying off judging from the positive projections of financial analysts and experts. It would seem that 2012 will be a relatively good year for the Philippines despite the economic downturn that European countries are experiencing due to the continuing debt crisis.”
