The 14th NYC in Iloilo

STI student shows off his NYC shirt

The STI 14th National Youth Convention went to the city of Iloilo for its fourth stop in its nationwide convention. The warm welcome of the students gave us more reason to give our best in making sure the students will come out more equipped in facing the world today.

NYC Host Bill Kosme

Students from STI College Kalibo, STI Barotac Viejo, STI Antique and host school STI College Iloilo trooped to the newly refurbished SM City Iloilo Cinema 6 to witness the NYC and learn from the different speakers that were there.

Spanky Enriquez

Spanky Enriquez, who is the COO of Universal Workers Inc.. and an accomplished blogger, started out with his topic by telling the story of the dela Paz and Pagdangaman. The incident really showed the power of blogging which networks followed for them to get an inside view of the incident that happened. His challenge in the end eventually made STIers believe that blogging can be a powerful tool to them.

Stanley Dimain

The toast of the town was the second speaker, Mr. Stanley Dimain. His combination of jokes and tips on how to be financially free kept the students on their feet. His wit and humor made the usually serious topic quite light and gave students additional insights on how to save up.

Jojo Recio

Jojo Recio, another STI Head Office Manager was not to be out done as he also gave a good account of himself with the topic "Think Link" Connecting people. His anecdotes and countless stories on how he built his network through relationships served him well.

Zara Aldana was captivating

Zara Aldana of Pinoy Big Brother fame and a former Mutya ng PIlipinas beauty entertained the crowd after the event. Students stayed on and had their pictures taken from the beauty and with me also as souvenirs when they get back to Manila. It was great to be back here in this city of wondrous smiles and I am already looking forward to getting back next year!
