(Keynote message delivered at the 60th anniversary commemoration of the first Pacific crossing by Philippine Airlines, July 28, 2006, Century Park Hotel)


I am honored to join you tonight as we celebrate a major milestone in aviation – the first crossing of the Pacific Ocean by an Asian carrier. This was achieved by Philippine Airlines on July 31, 1946, 60 years ago on Monday.

This feat brought honor not only to our company but also to the new born Philippine Republic, which was then less than a month old.
