75th Year of the Philippines Yearbook honors 75 Familial Generations at Diamond Hotel

-

MANILA, Philippines - The Philippines Yearbook publisher and editor-in-chief Vernon Go writes: “Seventy-five is a big number. Not quite three digits, but in human years, this figure pretty much represents a full lifetime, and is appropriately awarded the distinction of being a “diamond” year….thus, we celebrate this cycle of life with 75 gigantic family portraits representing three generations of life, and more importantly the bedrock of Philippine society – family. 

“To commemorate this diamond year for The Philippines Yearbook, we have turned the generatiobal publication my grandfather (Dr. Jimmy Go Puan Seng) started in 1936 on its side and bound it as landscape book to afford a panoramic canvas for our photographer Tom Epperson to work with.” 

The launch of the 2012 edition held at the top of the Diamond Hotel was fully packed with VIPs converging from all over Metro Manila and even as far as Cebu and Mindanao.
