BPI AIA raffles off 2 brand-new cars to lucky policyholders

Sunday, June 5, 2022


Two lucky policyholders of top-ranking insurance firm BPI AIA (formerly BPI-Philam) each get rewarded with a brand-new car for simply sustaining their policies. Eleazar Jugarap won a new Honda HR-V for consistently paying his policy premiums on time, while Arnaldo Andrade was the raffle winner under the reinstated auto-surrender/lapsed policies category.

Andrade, 47, got a Critical Care Plus unit-linked health and life insurance plan to protect himself and his family in case of the unexpected. Family is also the priority for Jugarap, 38, who maintains the savings and life insurance policy Build Life Plus. They have long chosen BPI AIA as their life protection partner and appreciate the quality of service of their respective BPI branches.

“Ang pakiramdam ko sa pagiging BPI AIA customer ay panatag sa sarili na mayroon na akong igagastos sa sarili ‘pag magkasakit o maiwan sa pamilya ko (I feel that as a BPI AIA customer, I am at peace that I will have something to spend on myself when I get sick or leave my family),” Jugarap said.

For both, winning the car was an unexpected but welcome surprise. The raffle draw was held in the presence of BPI AIA executives.

“I am very happy. Sobrang nagulat ako. Hindi pa ako makapaniwala noong una, at akala ko pa nga scam eh. Totoo pala (I was so surprised. I couldn’t believe it at first, and I even thought it was a scam. It’s real),” Andrade said.

A strategic alliance between two leading companies in the country – AIA Philippines and Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI), BPI AIA held the special campaign from January to December 2021 to provide loyal customers more incentives for managing their insurance plans well. 

Apart from the cars given away as the grand prize, more lucky customers were rewarded as much as Php 5,000 worth of eGift credits each for being good clients who adopt better habits such as doing timely payment, enrolling to automatic payment facilities (auto-debit or auto-credit arrangement), shifting to less frequent modes of payment, and resuming premium payment for policies on premium holiday.

“Our customers have already taken the first step when it comes to securing their future, but we believe the market needs a little more push in terms of reforming mindsets and habits about insurance. Through this special campaign, we have incentivized better payment behaviors and extended more leeway to help those with lapsed policies get back on track and continue to be protected through the coverage and benefits of their purchased plan. We wanted to do this to make our customers feel that a relationship with BPI AIA is a rich and rewarding experience and that a journey towards healthier, longer, better lives is worth taking,” said BPI AIA CEO Surendra Menon.

In the Philippines, insurance penetration increased to 2.03% in Premium Volume as a share of gross domestic product (GDP) during the third quarter of 2021, from 1.69% in the same period in 2020. BPI AIA has consistently been recognized by the Insurance Commission as one of the country’s leading insurers, with net income of Php 2 billion by the end of 2021. This is a simple testament of how BPI AIA policyholders are assured that their insurance firm of choice is backed by financial strength and stability.

Start securing your future with BPI AIA, and be rewarded for making better choices. Visit the website or official Facebook page or contact the virtual assistant Bessie (via Messenger). Existing policyholders must regularly update or confirm their contact information through My AIA or the corporate website to remain up-to-date on promotions.

BE SEEN BE HEARD WITH THE BODY SHOP AND THE UN

Thursday, June 2, 2022

The Body Shop and the United Nations Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth launch global collaboration calling for more young voices in the halls of power their joint the Be Seen Be Heard campaign.

 


That’s because millions of young people are missing from public life. With the climate crisis, global conflict and generational inequalities running rampant, the inputs, perspectives and representation of youth are needed more than ever.

 

Almost half the world's population is under 30. Yet, they make up only 2.6% of parliamentarians around the world. The average age of a world leader is currently 62. Of all the parliaments in the world, 37% do not have a single Member of Parliament (MP) under age 30 and less than 1% of these young MPs are women.

 

Young people have the right to be included in political decisions that affect them, however, numerous barriers prevent their participation. The Body Shop and the Office of the United Nations Secretary-General's Envoy on Youth are collaborating to change this through the global Be Seen Be Heard campaign to amplify youth voices in public life. 

 

The campaign seeks to create long-term structural changes to decision-making to be more inclusive of young people. It was launched last May 11 with the release of a joint report, Be Seen Be Heard: Understanding young people’s political participation’. The report which includes findings from the largest-ever survey carried out by The Body Shop in December 2021, covering 26 countries with 27,043 respondents in total, over half of which were under age 30.

 


The research found that 82% of people surveyed agree that political systems need drastic reform to be fit for the future. Across the board, 84% of people described politicians as ‘self-interested’ and 75% of people surveyed think politicians are corrupt.

 

The majority, two in three people, also agree that the age balance in politics is wrong, with 8 in 10 people of all ages believing the ideal voting age (the age when someone can first vote) is 16 to 18, despite that in most countries around the world the voting age is 18 or over. A third of those under age 30 surveyed would consider running for office versus only a fifth of those over age 30. People across all age groups agree that more opportunities for younger people to have a say in policy development and/or change would make political systems better.

 

David Boynton, CEO of The Body Shop says, “Our position is clear. The world’s problems cannot be solved by the same people making the same choices. Our research indicates the majority of young people are positive about the future, and we need to hear their views and ideas inside the halls of power. Be Seen Be Heard is rooted in creating a fairer world with and for young people, and together with the Office of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth – we are on a mission to do exactly that.”

 

Jayathma Wickramanayake, the United Nations Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth says, “The intergenerational gap in power, influence and trust constitutes one of the biggest challenges of our time. As young people have made abundantly clear through their activism on the streets, in civil society and on social media, they care deeply about the transformational change needed to create more equal, just and sustainable societies. Participation is a right, and this campaign is an opportunity to change that.”

 

The Body Shop and the United Nations Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth push for transformational change. Among other actions, young people’s participation in public decision-making could be improved long-term by lowering voting ages, increasing formal youth representation through youth councils, parliaments, or committees, removing barriers for young people to participate in public decision-making, simplifying registration for first-time voters, and improving young people’s leadership skills.

 



Campaigning in 2,600 stores, in over 75 countries, across six continents. The collaboration between The Body Shop and the Office of the United Nations Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth will mean that young people and other stakeholders will be able to engage with the campaign through many routes. Local campaign activations will include partnerships with specific youth-led or youth-focused non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and/or opportunities to support through petitions and other activations. 

 

The campaign launched globally in May 2022 and will run until mid-2025. Check out the campaign website for further information www.beseenbeheardcampaign.com

Spectrum energizes Alphatech first solar-powered faciity

Alphatech solar-powered facility


Spectrum, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Manila Electric Company (Meralco), has energized Alphatech Development Corporation’s first solar-powered facility, supporting the latter’s push for sustainable business operations. 

Officials from the two companies on May 25 led the inauguration of the 856.80 kilowatt-peak (kWp) solar rooftop project at Alphatech’s manufacturing plant in Guiguinto, Bulacan. 

The project is expected to generate approximately 1,125,835 kWh of clean energy every year and will allow Alphatech to save about PhP3.3 million in energy costs annually.

The company will likewise reduce its carbon footprint by an estimated 802 metric tons, which translates more than 82,000 trees planted and 3,194,070 kilometers reduced in vehicle travel per year.

"Today’s inauguration is a huge win for our company and our community. I’ve laid out the challenge to our company’s leadership team to seek ways to drive environmental sustainability in our day-to-day operations, and this is a major step in that direction," Allan Keith G. Castro, Alphatech Senior Vice President, said during the inaugural ceremony.

Alphatech is a unit of Plastimer Group of Companies, which is a provider of plastic products and services in the country.

To further its sustainability efforts, the Plastimer Group is also seeking ways to expand its capabilities to reuse the plastic resin of its products after they reach their useful life. It is also improving the open spaces at its plants by turning them into parks and sanctuaries.

Spectrum Chief Operations Officer Patrick Henry T. Panlilio, meanwhile, said: “We thank Alphatech for entrusting Spectrum with its first solar project. Working in a highly competitive industry requires efficiency to cut down costs and resiliency to survive changes in regulations and we are glad that we are able to help Alphatech find solutions to achieve operational efficiencies using clean energy generated from this solar project. This is just the first step in its journey towards more sustainable operations.”

“Consistent with Meralco's mandate to promote and utilize clean and sustainable energy sources, we strive to provide our customers with safe, affordable and reliable solar solutions. We do this by keeping our supply chain efficient and maintaining high standards in parallel with quality control measures for each step of our end-to-end service. We hope that this is just the beginning of a long and fulfilling sustainability journey for Alphatech which we, in Spectrum, would be more than happy to support,” he added.

Alphatech joins the roster of international and local companies that engaged Meralco and Spectrum to advance their sustainability goals through clean energy.

Spectrum offers tailor-fit solutions for industrial, commercial, and residential customers through an in-depth understanding of energy consumption behaviors and strategic partnerships with world-class technology partners.

Backed by Meralco’s energy expertise and proven safety track record, the renewable energy company has been providing services and solutions to help customers reduce their costs while taking part in saving the planet.
