My Investiture as 8th President of the Wesleyan University - Philippines

Snippets from my Inaugural Address, Sacred Calling: Sing One Tune 


"In every struggle, with every triumph, Wesleyans stayed with me. It was with me then, and is with me now."
“I humbly stand before you now as a steward of God in this institution and I am ready to serve,”

"I envision a world where we all can SING ONE TUNE anchored on the three pillars of Wesleyan University-Philippines: 

SERVICE , CHARACTER and SCHOLARSHIP

"Wesleyan SERVICE should be... 

  • Sustainable 
  • Inspiring 
  • Nurturing 
  • God-driven" 

"Our services express our gratitude to God for his faithfulness to our lives and University." 

"We will develop in Wesleyan the CHARACTER that promotes... 

  • Openness 
  • Neutrality 
  • Economy" 

"The diversity of the people in our University is our strength. As we promote openness in Wesleyan, we will channel this strength to create a culture of trust, transparency, empathy, adaptability, and humility." 

"We will pursue SCHOLARSHIP through... 

  • Training and education with 
  • Upward direction supported by 
  • Network-building to achieve 
  • Excellence" 

"In this limitless world, Wesleyan will raise the bar for effective and efficient formal, general, and informal education through limitless and borderless education." 


"WESLEYAN EXCELLENCE is the FUSION of PIETY and LEARNING. We will live up to our mantra, "Building people, transforming lives." 

"This is the hope. This is the vision. 

"Wesleyan University-Philippines will SING ONE TUNE." 
"We will sing the song of Wesleyan Service, of Wesleyan Character, and Wesleyan Scholarship."
