CAPITOL NEWS

FORMER President Fidel V. Ramos launched on Tuesday, November 11, his newest addition to his commissioned and published books entitled “111111-111-II Wonder of Words: The Timeless Quotes of Fidel V. Ramos & Contemporaries,” on November 11 at the posh Sison Auditorium here.

The former president said the book which contains bits of wisdom on good governance, is the only legacy that he could share with the people of Pangasinan and the entire nation.

Gov. Amado T. Espino, Jr., who led provincial officials and guests in welcoming the former president, commended the President not only for the publication of the book which he dubbed as, ‘book for all ages’ but for all the “lasting infrastructure projects in Pangasinan during his presidency.”

The governor said that this and more proves that Pres. Ramos is truly “Pangasinan’s most illustrious son.’

Pres. Ramos, on the other hand, said that with the leadership of the governor, Pangasinan is now considered as one of the best provinces in the country, if not the No.1.

With key words like ‘caring, sharing, and daring,’ the former President said Pangasinan is on the right track.

Meanwhile, Board Member Ranjit R. Shahani in his welcome remarks said the leadership of Pres. Ramos and Gov. Espino are “intertwined” because both leaders have done and still continue to do their best to promote Pangasinan as a great province.

He described President Ramos as the “greatest Pangasinense” and Gov. Espino as the “greatest governor” of Pangasinan.

“FVR Wonder of Words” is a companion piece of FVR WOW Book 1 which was also launched in Pangasinan in November 2011 to commemorate the 111th birth anniversary of his diplomat father, the late Foreign Affairs Secretary Narciso R. Ramos.

Reaching out to every Filipino, FVR envisions “Wonder of Words” to be the go-to-guide for every notable quote about the Philippines, good governance and best practices.

Copies of the book are now available at the Pangasinan Provincial Library, Pangasinan State University (PSU), Pangasinan National High School (PNHS) and other national high schools and universities in the province.
