Champions exemplifying Teamwork, Integrity, Growth, Excellence and Efficiency, and Relationship-Building have been presented with special trophies of appreciation.
Colourful performances from Filipino impersonator and theatre artist Willie Nepomuceno portraying past Philippine Presidents served as backdrop to the highlights of MPI’s journey for the past 25 years.
“Reaching one’s 25th year is reason enough to celebrate, and Maybank Philippines marking it on the Year of the Water Tiger makes this milestone even more auspicious,” said MPI President and CEO Abigail Del Rosario in her thanksgiving message.
“We are grateful that we get to celebrate this momentous occasion with our Key Shareholders and Regulators, who continuously provide guidance and governance; our People, one thousand three hundred strong Maybankers in the Philippines, who have always been the heart and soul of this organisation; and our Customers and Community Partners, who have always been the reason why we are where we are today, and have always stood as our inspiration,” she added.
