FVR to launch new book

From the Philippine News Agency (Jul 19): FVR to launch new book  

Former President Fidel V. Ramos will launch his 14th book titled “Undying Service to the Filipino” at the Manila Hotel Champagne Room at 4 p.m. Thursday (July 19).

His latest book is jointly published by the Ramos Peace and Development Foundation (RPDEV) and Manila Bulletin Publishing Corporation.

“Undying Service to the Filipino” is a compilation of selected “ sermons from his weekly FVR column in the Manila Bulletin Sunday column “On Empowering the Filipino People.”

“Through this book, we aim to continue fulfilling the Filipinos’ intrinsic duty of imparting the values of transcendent events in nation-building to those who now bear the torch of national leadership and most especially to our younger generations. We should never tire in inspiring them to aspire for excellence and find honor in making self-sacrifice towards a common good. They need to know—and, from time-to-time, have to be reminded—what their elders had fought and died for, in the service of God, country, people, and the environment,” the RPDEV Foundation said in a statement.

The book is part of RPDEVs continuing education advocacies and publications program in line with its four main program areas namely: Enduring peace in the Asia-Pacific region, sustainable development, socioeconomic diplomacy, and democratic governance.
