MESSAGE OF VICE GOVERNOR GABRIELLE V. CALIZO-QUIMPO AS GUEST AND INDUCTING OFFICER OF THE WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS OF AKLAN AT THE HERNANI’S MIX AND MATCH RESTAURANT, L. BARRIOS STREET, KALIBO, AKLAN ON JULY 31, 2009.
IT IS ALWAYS MY GREAT PLEASURE, AND A GREAT HONOR, TOO, TO BE WITH MY “KABABARO” IN OCCASIONS LIKE WHAT
WE HAVE TONIGHT, AN ALL-WOMEN AFFAIR TO JUMPSTART THE CONSISTENT AND SUSTAINED EFFORTS OF AKLANON WOMEN TOWARDS SOCIAL, POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC ADVOCACIES AND CONCRETE ACTIONS TO ATTAIN FULL WOMEN EMPOWERNMENT IN OUR SOCIETY THROUGH THE WOMEN ENTERPRENEURS OF AKLAN, OR, WOMEN – AKLAN, IN SHORT.
I WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE AND SINCERE APPRECIATION FOR THIS RARE HONOR YOU HAVE ALL BESTOWED TO ME THIS EVENING AS YOUR GUEST AND INSPIRATION BECAUSE BY SO DOING YOU HAVE EXTENDED TO ME THE RECOGNITION AS ONE AMONG THE WOMEN LEADERS OF THIS PROVINCE, AND TO SOME EXTENT, ONE OF THE LEADERS RECOGNIZED IN THE COUNTRY.
MY ACTIVITIES IN THE PROVINCE WILL BEAR ME OUT AND THE WAY YOU REGARDED MY STATUS IN AKLAN. AS YOU WILL NOTE, I AM QUITE BUSY ATTENDING TO THE NEEDS, ACTIVITIES AND PROJECTS OF AKLANON WOMEN IN THIS PROVINCE THROUGH THE SOROPTIMIST INTERNATIONAL AND THE DAUGHTERS OF MARY IMMACULATE ASIDE FRO
M BEING YOUR WOMAN VICE GOVERNOR OF THE PROVINCE AND A WOMAN PRESIDING OFFICER OF A PROVINCIAL LEGISLATIVE BODY MAINLY COMPOSED OF DEBATING, AND SOMETIMES,
DISCRIMINATING MALE MEMBERS. BUT THIS PEER OF YOURS REMAIN STEADFAST AND DEFTLY PARRY THE PUNCHES OF THE MACHOIST MEMBERS OF THE SANGGUNIANG PANLALAWIGAN.
I AM VERY GLAD NOTING THE GERMINATION OF THIS ALL-WOMEN AND NEW ORGANIZATION OF THE WEAKER SEX IN THIS PROVINCE. YOU BEAR THE NAME WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS OF AKLAN BUT YOU DO NOT DISCRIMINATE TO INCLUDE EVEN THE NON-ENTERPRENEURS AND PURSUE EFFORTS AND ADVOCACIES TOWARDS AKLANON WOMEN EMPOWERMENT THROUGH ENTREPRENURIAL KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDES AND SKILLS DEVELOPMENT,FAMILY HEALTH AND WELLNESS, GOOD GOVERNANCE AND THE CONCERN FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.
I MUST SAY THAT IN THIS PERIOD OF OUR GLOBAL AND NATIONAL LIFE, THE DAYS WHEN THERE WAS A MARK DISTINCTION BETWEEN THE MALE AND FEMALE POPULATION IS OVER. THE WICKED THINKING OF MALE CHAUVINISTS IS A THING OF THE PAST AND MEN AND WOMEN LIVE THROUGH EQUAL FOOTING, PRIVILEGE, OPPORTUNITIES, AND AVENUES FOR ADVANCEMENT IN THESE DAYS OF THE MODERN WORLD. MALES AND FEMALES ARE BOTH CLOTHED WITH EQUAL SOCIAL, POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC RIGHTS AND PERKS AND ONLY THOSE DETERMINED TO SUCCEED REGARDLESS OF
SEX WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL IN THIS WORLD OF GLOBAL COMPETITIONS.
THIS NEED NOT BE EMPHASIZED NOWADAYS. WE HAVE GOT ALREADY TWO WOMEN PRESIDENTS OF THE NATION. IN AKLAN, WE ONCE HAVE A WOMAN GOVERNOR IN THE LATE CORAZON LEGASPI CABAGNOT, WE ALSO GOT ONE PAST WOMAN VICE GOVERNOR AND YOUR INCUMBENT IS ALSO A WOMAN. MEANING, POLITICAL AND LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES MUST BE DESERVED REGARDLESS OF SEX.
WOMEN CAN BE MORE ENTERPRISING THAN MEN. LIKE IN POLITICS, BUSINESS AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP NO LONGER REMAIN THE EXCLUSIVE DOMAIN OF OUR MALE COUNTERPARTS, RATHER, WE SAW MANY SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSWOMEN AND ENTREPRENEURS WHEREVER WE GO IN THE WORLD. SUCESSFUL PROFESSIONALS IN THE DIFFERENT FIELDS OF HUMAN ENDEAVORS ARE ALMOST DOMINATED BY OUR OWN RANKS.
AS YOU ARE ALL AWARE OF, BEFORE I ENTERED LOCAL POLITICS, MODESTY ASIDE, I AM ONE ENTREPRENEUR OF NOTE IN THE HOTEL AND TRAVEL INDUSTRY, RECOGNIZED BY MY PEERS NOT ONLY IN THE NATIONAL SCENE BUT INTERNATIONAL AS WELL. OF COURSE, MY SUCCESS AS AN ENTREPRENEUR CAN BE BEST GAUGED BY THE SEVERAL AWARDS MY FIRM HAS GAINED IN THE RECENT PAST, A RECOGNITION WHICH CLEARLY DEPICT HOW ONE WITH DETERMINATION CAN B
E SUCCESSFUL IN RUNNING AND MANAGING BUSINESS ENTERPRISE.
MANY SAY THAT BUSINESS AND POLITICS DO NOT MIX WHICH CAN BE PARTLY TRUE BUT PARTLY NOT TOTALLY CORRECT. EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT TIME MANAGEMENT CAN ALWAYS SHARE ONE’S FOCUS ON BOTH, AND THEREFORE, WE CAN ALWAYS FIND TIME SERVING OUR PEOPLE AS A POLITICAL LEADER BUT PRESERVING THE BALANCE OF MAINTAINING AND RUNNING EQUALLY WELL OUR ENTERPRISES.OFTENTIMES, BUSINESS STRATEGIES CAN BE BETTER APPLIED TO POLITICAL STRATEGIES, ALTHOUGH THE RETURN ON INVESTMENTS IN POLITICS WILL NOT REDOUND TO A POLITICIAN’S FINANCIAL GAINS BUT AN INVESTMENT INTO THE HEARTS AND THE BETTER WELFARE OF OUR CONSTITUENTS.
LOOK AT THE PEOPLE DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN THE SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES IN THE PROVINCE OF AKLAN. YOU WILL NOTE THAT THIS ECONOMIC SECTOR IN THE PROVINCIAL ECONOMY IS MAINLY DOMINATED BY WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS BECAUSE WOMEN ARE CONTENT IN STARTING SMALL AND GAIN MORE BIGGER AND BETTER.
SMEs IN THE PROVINCE OF AKLAN HAS TAKEN GREAT STRIDES JUDGING FROM THE NUMBER OF ENTERPRISES WHICH HAD SURFACED THROUGH TH
E YEARS, THE QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF PRODUCTS OUR WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS HAD PLACED IN THE MARKET, MANY HAD ALREADY PENETRATED THE EXPORT MARKET SPECIFICALLY OUR ROYAL FABRIC, THE PINA. MANY OF THESE ARE IN THE HANDS OF OUR WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS.
I CAN SAY THAT WE, WOMEN, ARE BETTER ENTREPRENEURS THAN OUR OUR MALE COUNTERPARTS. SOON, WE WILL DOMINATE THEM IN THE FIELD OF POLITICS AND OTHER KINDS OF PROFESSION.
ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL EMPOWERMENT IS ALREADY AT HAND AMONGST US WOMEN. AS WE ARE ALL EMPOWERED, WE STRENGTHEN SOCIETY’S FOUNDATION, THE FAMILY AND THE COMMUNITY.
THANK YOU AND CONGRATULATIONS, WOMEN-AKLAN.
