One Saturday evening at Radisson Blu Hotel Cebu, I was invited to a dinner with Chinggay Utzurrum hosted by GM Grant Gaskin, Sales and Marketing Director Anna Maria Fernandez and Marketing Communications Assistant Director Joan Danao.
The place is beautiful. Radisson is a fulfillment of the dream of SM Chairman Henry Sy Sr. The hotel’s completion was put on hold during the 90s due to the prevailing business climate but the owners never lost vision of one day opening its doors to welcome guests from all over the world.
Situated right beside SM City Cebu, it has 400 spacious rooms which are equipped with 37-inch flat screen LCD television. The ballroom and function rooms are perfect meeting and events facilities. For information, please contact Joan Danao tel. no. 6332-402 9900 local 3602.

The Quota International of Metro Cebu was founded in November 2007 by outgoing president Josephine V. Mapeso, who has been an active member for 30 years now together with charter president Lydia Ibañez and Socorro Codilla. The Quota International of Metro Cebu is composed of young professionals who devote time to the fulfillment of the vision and ideals of Quota. The aim is to give a fresh perspective in carrying out Quota’s vision of uplifting the lives of the hearing-impaired, speech-impaired and the disadvantaged women and children. The club is presently engaged in projects involving daycare centers in San Nicolas Elementary School, Pardo and the disadvantage women in Kahupayan. The Quota International of Metro Cebu is also the newest addition to District 41 of Quota International Incorporated, the world’s oldest women’s organization established in Bufallo, New York in 1919.
