The 48th Annual Consular Ball, a prestigious event celebrating international relations and cultural exchange, was held last Dec. 2 at the Grand Ballroom, Grand Hyatt, BGC. This sophisticated gala convened diplomats, consuls, business executives, and industry leaders in a night of elegance.
The continuity and evolution of international relations were addressed by both the outgoing dean, Martin Javier-Garcia, Consul General of Spain, and incoming dean, Jesus M. Pineda, Jr., Consul of Fiji, each imparting their vision on diplomacy’s role in an ever-shifting global dynamic.
The chairperson of the event was Consul General of Monaco Fortune Aleta Ledesma and the co-chairpersons were Gambia Consul Agnes Huibonhoa and Ghana Consul Betty Chua.
The night was made possible by the generous patronage of PCSO, Etihad Airways, Philippine Airlines and many more.
The 48th Annual Consular Ball stands as a testament to the lasting power of diplomatic and consular engagement and cultural bonds.
