Vista Residences creates the path to abundant living for the Global Filipino

Tweet

The Philippine real estate industry is training its sights on the potentially rich market that comprises Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), offering them prime residential condominiums as immensely profitable investment prospects.

This buoyant outlook on the Global Filipino as property investors is not without the digits to back it up. Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) disclosed earlier this year that OFW remittances in 2022 hit an astounding high of US$36.14 billion, surpassing the previous year’s total remittances of S$34.88 billion.

Fortunately, modern OFWs, redefined as the new Global Filipino, have acquired financial literacy through the years, and readily acknowledge that placing some of their money in real estate, considered a stable, long-term investment, would secure their future.

Indeed, if our hardworking overseas workers once dreamt of buying their own homes, these days they are making it happen.

Vista Residences looks to serve investment-savvy Global Filipinos

Vista Residences, the prime condominium developer of Vista Land & Lifescapes Inc., is keeping this in mind as it looks to serve investment-savvy Global Filipinos. Its stunning vertical communities offer plush living spaces that are designed for the more sophisticated tastes of this demographic.

On site, Vista properties offer top-of-the-line amenities—fitness centers, function rooms, game rooms, gardens, and swimming pools.

Ms. Eda Tambologan, Vista Residences Division Head, says, “When overseas workers come home to roost once more, they want a safe haven in which to renew their ties with loved ones; they deserve a fine dwelling that will last through the myriad milestones of their lives. I believe that a high-value property such as Vista Residences is the best investment the Global Filipino can ever venture into.”

Mapúa Malayan Colleges Mindanao (Mapúa MCM) establishes its mastery in health through its College of Health Sciences. Its programs include BS Biology, BS Psychology, BS Pharmacy, and BS Physical Therapy. Harmonizing its knowledge in healthcare and its strong reputation in tech and engineering, MAPÚA MCM provides various opportunities to students through global learning, advanced research, and digital technology.

Davao City, Philippines – The Bureau of Labor and Statistics states that employment in the healthcare field is projected to grow by 13% from 2021 to 2031. This increase indicates the creation of 2 million jobs over a span of 10 years, much higher than the average for all occupations. With this, students who wish to pursue a career in the medical field have a plethora of options waiting for them locally and abroad.

There are many routes one can take to pursue a career in the medical field. One of them is health sciences, which prepares them to take on a great variety of roles in both clinical and non-clinical settings.

Harmonizing its knowledge in healthcare and its strong reputation in tech and engineering, MAPÚA MCM provides various opportunities to students through global learning, advanced research, and digital technology.

Mapúa MCM’s College of Health Sciences has collaborated with Arizona State University (ASU) to prime the quality of education it offers. Through this collaboration, Mapúa MCM pre-med students are honed to be globally ready, proficient with advanced and immersive facilities and digital mastery.

Arizona State University (ASU) is ranked #1 in the U.S. innovation ahead of MIT and Stanford for 8 consecutive years by U.S.News and World Report. ASU is also among the top 1% of universities worldwide, ranked by the Center for World University Ranking 2022-2023, and among the top 150 universities worldwide by the Shanghai Ranking, 2022. The groundbreaking collaboration between Mapúa schools and Arizona State University focused on Business and Health Sciences programs. 

MAPÚA MCM College of Health Sciences is one of the few schools in the region that boasts of immersive simulation rooms where students can work on 3D anatomical models, virtual dissection tables, and human body projections via AI. These technologies allow them to have a significant advantage in the field of health sciences and knowledge in tune with the modern world.

But above and beyond technological innovations, MAPÚA MCM College of Health Sciences ensures that their students are anchored on solid ethics and human values through hands-on experience and real-world exposure. Its students all undergo internships in hospitals, clinics, and community centers where they learn about promotion, prevention, treatment, and intervention as they get to interact with real patients.

The medical track is one of the most competitive fields to be in. But by choosing a program and institution that align with one’s personal goals, students can have a huge leg-up that will benefit them in the future.

"The medical field is an ever-evolving industry, and the demand for healthcare workers is stronger now than ever. We build our capacity to address this gap through a collaboration with the Healthway network, wherein we streamline the career path of our students — from school to internships and hands-on clinical rotations, straight to career opportunities," said Dr. Adorico M. Aya-ay, Dean of the MAPÚA MCM College of Health Sciences.

MAPÚA MCM also substantiates that its faculty members stay updated with the latest advancements and industry trends by sending them to training and seminars abroad to learn from experts worldwide.

Pinoy rock queens Barbie Almalbis, Kitchie Nadal, Aia de Leon, Acel, Lougee Basabas-Alejandro, and Hannah Romawac release “Talinghaga,” their first single as a group

Tweet

After staging a sold-out concert last year at the Solaire Theatre, Pinoy rock queens Barbie Almalbis, Kitchie Nadal, Aia de Leon, Acel, Lougee Basabas-Alejandro, and Hannah Romawac continue their collaborative streak with the release of “Talinghaga,” their first single together as a group.

The star-studded collaboration reflects on their respective experiences finding God and walking with Him in faith

Released under WATERWALK RECORDS, a music label focused on bringing fresh Christian music to a new, streaming generation, the praise anthem narrates their individual experiences walking in faith with God and finding him even in the most tumultuous of times.

According to Aia de Leon, “Talinghaga” is an attempt to describe the manifold glory of our Holy Creator. “While we wonder at His splendor, we find there is none like Him. While we revel at His glory, we find that we are blessed with His goodness and how His generosity is unmatched. The world we live in is but a temporary metaphor of the plans He has for us in His dwelling. Our final destination, without the tears and suffering.”

Buoyed by ethereal melodies, rousing arrangements, and lush vocal harmonies, “Talinghaga” highlights the group’s individual and collective strengths as singer-songwriters. The acclaimed and award-winning artists behind the song proved that they’re a sum of some very strong parts with a team-up that is a first-rate of its kind.

The track is produced by Jarlo Bâse, a fellow musician and singer-songwriter who has worked with Barbie recently on “PIRASO.” Emil Dela Rosa is also credited as the song’s mixing and mastering engineer, while also providing additional bass.

Barbie Almalbis revealed that after their Tanaw concert, the six of them began discussing writing music together in one of their hangs. “Lougee had a ‘song start’ and we pretty much finished the song in an afternoon. We just did some edits and added a few lines through online collaboration, since Kitchie was already in Spain by then.”

Part of the recordings were done at Barbie’s ‘makeshift’ home studio in Marikina, while Aia and Kitchie recorded their parts in their respective abodes due to physical and scheduling constraints. Thanks to the power of technology, the collaboration was made possible, and enabled some of them to record just about anywhere.

Acel expressed gratitude for how the collaboration went. Working with her closest friends in the music industry, the Sulat hitmaker praised her contemporaries for making sure that everyone’s suggestions were heard. “Each one of us shared our ideas, but most of the actual words we chose to use in the song were from Lougee, Aia and Barbie. The idea is centered on who God is in our lives.”

“Talinghaga” is out now on all digital music platforms via WATERWALK RECORDS.
