“Earth Hour is more than just turning off lights. It’s about making a meaningful impact through collective action. We’re proud of our Bravehearts who took part in this effort, and we are even more motivated to build on these small but significant steps. These efforts reaffirm the company’s belief that business success and environmental responsibility go hand-in-hand. ~Atty.

Looking ahead, PCPPI is planning to introduce even more eco-friendly measures throughout 2025.

Tagbilaran City Launches Modern Emergency Response System, Pioneering Safety and Tourism Growth in Bohol



Tagbilaran City, capital of Bohol Island known as Friendship City and a bustling tourism hub in the south, is now proudly the “First City” in the Bohol Province to revolutionize its emergency response capabilities with state-of-the-art technology.

Tagbilaran City Mayor Jane Yap announced the good news of the activation of the 911 Emergency Hotline using a modern US patterned and based emergency communication system for her city on April 25.

Mayor Yap said the port city that serves as a major gateway for both passengers and cargo handles a huge volume of travelers from other southern destinations, including Manila. Latest statistics show that Tagbilaran City under her leadership has enjoyed a consistent tourism growth of almost 30% percent year on year for the past 3 years and has become a favorite tourist destination because of its historical sites, beaches and natural attractions.

“We are expecting foreign tourist arrival to swell for our upcoming and famous celebration, the Saulog Festival on April 27 that will be highlighted by colorful street dancing and a ritual showdown competition. It is only fitting for Tagbilaran to welcome all its visitors and its residents into a city that can give them peace of mind because it can assure an efficient emergency response when needed, ensuring their safety is a priority for me. A well-coordinated and effective emergency response builds public confidence in what local authorities can do in the face of emergencies and calls for help. It is our duty to protect our constituents and all who visit our City. Peace and order and protection, these are the cornerstones of public service. ~Mayor Jane Yap, Tagbilaran City Mayor 

The decision to bring Tagbilaran’s emergency response system to the next level was borne out of the desire of the Mayor and the City Council to provide both tourists and the citizenry with world class public safety. It was also a direct response to the call of Department of Interior and Local Government Secretary Juanito Victor Remulla for all local government units to work towards a unified emergency response system.

Mayor Yap praised the DILG and the present administration for its vision and earnest efforts to improve public safety nationwide. She said a unified emergency response system will improve coordination and communication, streamline decision-making, aid in resource allocation, prevent duplication of effort, reduce confusion and provide emergency callers with what they deserve: easy access and immediate response.

Tagbilaran’s emergency response command center can now provide quick and accurate caller location, fully record all calls and integrate seamlessly with other communication devices and systems and ensure almost simultaneous, quick arrival on the scene of the emergency call. It can integrate with CCTV systems, uses data-driven analytics, identify and reduce prank calls, and now will be accessible through leading social media apps such as Facebook and Messenger, making “911” in Tagbilaran accessible, reliable and easy to use for everyone.

“I’m so happy and it’s all worth it. Being a full-time dancer, (this is) a big feat for me. Despite the fierce competition on the battle stage, all the love from my fellow competitors is really one of the most memorable things to me about the competition.” ~Jigoro

Jigoro also cites the support from his friends and the support from his community for his drive during the competition. For Jigoro, the highlight of his Red Bull Dance Your Style experience is the local dance community’s support for each other.  

This triumph also qualifies Jigoro to compete in the Red Bull Dance Your Style National Final for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fly to Los Angeles, USA as the Philippines' representative at the Red Bull Dance Your Style World Final.  Jigoro and EBOY, the runners-up from the Manila Qualifier, will join SUJI and SPADECKX from the Davao Qualifier as finalists for the National Final.


Red Bull Dance Your Style Asia Tour Lights Up Manila’s Dance Scene



As the Red Bull dancing Your Style Asia Tour arrived in Manila, the city transformed into a dancing metropolis.  MT Pop, a Vietnamese popping sensation and 2024 Red Bull Dance Your Style World Champion, traveled to Manila to immerse himself in the local dance scene and network with rising talent.  This provided a rare opportunity for international and local street dancers to collaborate and elevate street dance throughout Asia.  Japanese Hip-Hop dancer and 2022 Red Bull Dance Your Style World Champion THE D Soraki, as well as Korean Waacking queen and 2024 Red Bull Dance Your Style Korea National Finalist Yoon Ji, joined MT Pop for the Manila leg of the tour.

“It’s been a long time coming. I’ve really been wanting to come to the Philippines, and a lot of dancers from here have been messaging me to ask when I will come here. Finally, I’m in the Philippines and I’m really happy to be here. Immediately, everybody has given us such a warm welcome and shown us a lot of love. I’m from Vietnam, and I’m happy to get a chance to spotlight great dancers from Southeast Asia and share the stage with them. Just keep going. Keep learning. Everybody has had (their share of) difficulties, but for me what’s important is that when we love it, we do it. Dream it. Wish it. And, do it. The final battle was really fire. And with everybody vibing here, with good music, it really was the perfect night. ~MT Pop

For MT Pop, the chance to encounter dancers in Southeast Asia is the most important thing about the Red Bull Dance Your Style Asia Tour. 

The global dancers were also in attendance during the Red Bull Dance Your Style Manila Qualifier. MT Pop’s rise from a local street dancer in Vietnam to a global champion underscores how Red Bull Dance Your Style opens doors for dancers. Red Bull Dance Your Style highlights freestyle dance as a universal art expression that can connect communities from all over the world.
