All for the love of Paing
“A man travels the world over in search of what he needs, and returns home to find it.” — George Moore
The stately and exquisite manor that the Hechanovas call home has become the venue of many unforgettable parties attended by Manila’s veritable who’s who in society and business communities. Recently, the magnificent residence became abuzz with excitement as true gentleman and superb international top Rotarian Paing Hechanova marked another year with an elegant birthday bash. His ever supportive wife Mely, together with loving children Renna, Riana, Raissa and Raffy, were on hand to graciously welcome selected guests and treat them to a fine evening of special vintage wines that went hand in hand with an exceptionally delectable array of gourmet dishes. Family and close friends were all dressed to the nines as they came to personally wish the man of the hour happiness, good health and long life. Gracing the intimate affair were prominent personalities such as Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario, the brilliant Wash Sycip as well as Marivic and Joe Concepcion.
What a fantastic party as always! Happy birthday, Paing! May you be blessed with more years!
