Bikers from Bataan, Pampanga, Tarlac and nearby provinces pedaled along the route traversed by the country’s heroes in a fun ride for a cause dubbed, “Ride for Valor.” The “Ride for Valor” a non-competitive 160 kilometers long bike ride raised funds to save our heroes’ historical markers so that we may remember their sacrifice. The funds will be turned over to the Filipino-American Memorial Endowment (FAME) a non-government organization that maintains the kilometer markers of the Bataan Death March from Mariveles, Bataan to Capas, Tarlac. In the past, Bataan Death March markers had been destroyed, uprooted, and neglected due to drainage and other road projects. Ten (10) Death March historical markers in Mariveles, and four (4) in Limay, Bataan have to be relocated soon due to road widening and other repairs. The Death March markers serve as a reminder of the route taken by Filipino soldiers who defended the country against Japanese forces during World War II some 80 years ago. Abou...

We are made to live now and adapt to the so called new normal way of living in the digital world. The pandemic situation has led everybody to jump in the transition faster than it was expected. Initially, for safety reasons, cashless transactions have been the trend. Then we realized, it is possible and most of all, it’s more convenient. This paved the way to a wider use of Digital Financial Services . Online banking and digital or e-wallets came into the picture and it seems they are here to stay, for good! Actually, when we were in Coron, Palawan, I ran out of cash to spend, (there were still some vendors and services that you need to pay in cash) and I don’t have my ATM with me that time. But of course, I have my mobile phone, and Gcash.   Luckily, while walking in the busy streets along the area, we chance upon a Cebuana Lhuillier branch and lo and behold, I was able to cash out from my e-wallet . It’s a first for me and the experience was pleasant, no long waiting time req...
