On 21 May 2024, the Chinese Filipino Business Club, Inc. (CFBCI) visited two cities for its official turnover of Philippine flags and was received with utmost pleasure by local government leaders of Navotas City.
At 10:30AM, CFBCI officers and members led by President Samuel Lee Uy headed to Navotas City Hall for the turnover of one hundred (100) units of Philippine flag to be displayed in pertinent offices and areas of the city in celebration of the National Independence Day this upcoming 12th of June. Also present are the following officers and members: Vice President Vicente Co, Director Richard Alviar, Vice Chairman Eduardo Tiu, Vice Chairman Peter Chua, Vice Chairman Henry Tiu, Vice Chairman Bruce Uy, Plenary Member Direck Uy, Plenary Member Nixon Co, Plenary Member Ramon Wong, Plenary Member Sheryl Tiu, and Member Johnny Chen.
Mayor John Rey Tiangco expressed his immense gratitude for the organization’s relentless support to the city throughout his leadership. Ms. Mexica Bausa, who is currently employed as a Public Affairs Officer of CFBCI, is a former beneficiary of NavotaAs Scholarship Program during high school which is one of the projects heavily supported by Mayor Tiangco. After graduating from high school, CFBCI then supported her studies through the Pagharap sa Pangarap College Scholarship Program until she graduated with honors in the University of the Philippines Diliman. Mayor Tiangco was very proud that one of the City’s scholars is able to finish her studies with flying colors and has acquired valuable employment.
Aside from the flags, CFBCI also donated ten (10) mountain bikes and helmets to be used by the personnel of Navotas City Police to further facilitate peace and order in the city. Mayor Tiangco, Vice Mayor Tito Sanchez, and Chief of Navotas City Police, PCOL Mario Cortes, were present during the turnover at the City Hall Lobby.
