ICOPHIL
8th International Conference on Philippine Studies
The 8th International Conference on Philippine Studies (ICOPHIL) was held at the
Philippine Social Science Center along Commonwealth Ave. last
July 23-25, 2008, with 279 papers having been presented.
I presented my paper entitled "Corporate Ethical Culture: An Exploratory Descriptive Survey of Philippine Companies" during PANEL 9G, Friday, July 25, along with Dr. Don Eliseo Lucero-Prisno (Cardiff University, Wales) and Prof. Aaron Rom Moralina (Ateneo de Manila University). Our panel was chaired by Prof. Borrinaga of UP Manila - Leyte campus. Here are some photos:

A shot of my "Idol", Chancellor of UP Diliman, Dr. Sergio "Gerry" Cao. The dinner of July 23rd was courtesy of his office. As Dr. Churchill knew he was a "singing Chancellor", she invited him to render a song number. He couldn't say 'no'; so there he is, with a beautiful rendition of "Let It Be Me".
