History
1993. Atty. Leonides I. David, Dr. Eduardo
Gutierrez-Ong, Mr. Bienvenido Leofando, and
Mr. Soc Cahanap, all concerned members of the
South Metro Manila Chamber of Commerce and
Industry (SMMCCI), met to form the nucleus of the
Parañaque City Chamber of Commerce and
Industry (PqCCI)
1994. PqCCI was formally registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on
January 27, 1994 under SEC Registration No.
A000319.
Atty. Leonides I. David was elected Founding
President of the fledgling organization. Under his
stewardship, the Chamber organized the 1st
Parañaque Business Forum and Exhibition. This
conference, held from August 25 to 26, 1994 at the
Philippine Village Hotel, was substantive,
comprehensive, and tailor-made for the business
community in Parañaque. It gave Parañaque-
based companies an opportunity to showcase
their quality products and services. The
conference cum exhibit enabled PqCCI to show
its true worth in the Chamber movement as it
became the first local chamber in the National
Capital Region (NCR) to mount such an affair in its
first year of existence.
1995. The 2nd Parañaque Business Forum and
Exhibition was held on October 26 to 27, 1995 at
the Manila Garden Hotel during the tenure of Mr.
Florencio Jurado as PqCCI President. Again,
the conference provided Parañaque
businessmen and entrepreneurs the opportunity
to assess the current business climate and
address the various issues and concerns that
would enable the then municipality of Parañaque
to realize its vision of full economic, commercial
and industrial development.
1996. Mr. Rodrigo Campos assumed the Presidency
in 1996. At that time, pursuant to Republic Act No.
6977, also known as the “Magna Carta for Small
Enterprises”, Mayor Joey P. Marquez issued
Executive Order No. 96-20 in September 5, 1996
creating the Parañaque Small and Medium
Enterprise Development (SMED) Council. On
November 7, 1996, the Chamber conducted the
Small and Medium Enterprise Development
Conference-Workshop in line with its thrust to
promote, develop and assist small and medium
enterprises in the locality. The conference-
workshop provided the environment and the
opportunities propitious to the growth of the SME
sector in Parañaque.
About PqCCI
1997. PqCCI hosted the 5th Area Business
Conference (ABC) in July 1997 during the
administration of Ms. Julie Oconer-Lim as
PqCCI president. The conference, which
was held at the Westin Philippine Plaza, had
for its theme “Empowering Metro Manila
Business for Globalization”. This event
brought forth the fact that Metro Manila was
at the forefront of the entry of the Philippines
into the new millennium.
1998. During the second term of Atty. Leonides
David as PqCCI President, the Chamber
participated actively in the information
campaign as an expression of the full support
to the campaign for the cityhood of
Parañaque. In the final hearing of the
committee of the House of Representatives
which was held at the Elorde Stadium,
PqCCI sent representatives who spoke on
the potential for growth and expansion of
commerce and industry through increased
business investment and income, and
through the generation of more employment.
PqCCI argued that the conversion to
cityhood would result in an increase in
business income and government revenues.
1999. The biggest challenge that confronted the
business community and the government at
the time was how to get the Philippine
economy out of the Asean financial crisis and
push it towards recovery. PqCCI, under the
leadership of Mr. Romeo V. Cruz as
President, responded to the challenge by
focusing its full attention to harnessing the
p o t en t i a l s a nd c a p a bi l i t i e s o f i t s
memmembers towards achieving the goal of
fostering camaraderie, and strengthening
unity and cooperation among them. In line
with this, the Chamber embarked on a 10-
point program which included:
•Establishment of a DTI Business One-Stop
Shop in the City of Parañaque that will
process the documents needed to put up
new businesses in the City.
•Expansion of the membership base of
PqCCI.
•Holding of more general membership and
business meetings.
•Networking and holding of more dialogues
5

History (continued)
with the officials of the City government on
matters concerning the business community.
•Conducting more professional development
programs.
•Initiating advocacy activities on significant issues.
•Extension of quality services to Chamber
members, especially in the areas of information
and research.
•Creation of more livelihood projects for the
unemployed and underemployed workers in the
city in support of the programs of Mayor Joey P.
Marquez.
•Assistance to the clean up drive of the city
government.
•Launching of the Search for the “Ten Most
Outstanding Businessmen of Parañaque for
1999”.
These activities did not go unnoticed as PqCCI
was adjudged “Most Outstanding Chamber in
the National Capital Region in 1999”.
2000. Atty. Gregorio M. Batiller, Jr., PqCCI President for
2000, continued and expanded the programs
started in 1999. Under his leadership, PqCCI
gave out the first “Salambao Awards for
Excellence in Business Endeavor”. The Chamber
also implemented other meaningful projects,
among them several job fairs, which benefited the
business community in the City of Parañaque. It
was also during his administration that plans to
set up the Chamber offices at the Parañaque City
Hall saw fruition.
Again, PqCCI was adjudged “Most Outstanding
Chamber in the National Capital Region in 2000.
2001. Additional activities were implemented during the
term of Dr. Eduardo Gutierrez-Ong, President for
the year 2001. The first ever “Kapihan sa
Parañaque Chamber” was held. Joint general
membership meetings among the Chambers of
Commerce and Industry in Parañaque, Las Piñas
and Muntinlupa was initiated under his watch. A
sisterhood agreement between PqCCI and the
Davao City Chamber of Commerce and Industry
was signed in November during the Philippine
Business Conference.
6
About PqCCI
2002. Under the leadership of Mr. Angelito E.
Colona, PqCCI President in 2002, the
Chamber stood ready to meet the challenges
it faced. A planning session was held in
January 2002 to chart the course of the
organization for the year. A Business
Assistance Program was put in place to
assist Parañaque Businessmen, in general,
and PqCCI members, in particular, on
matters affecting the viability of their
operations. PqCCI also led the way for the
revitalized Parañaque Small and Medium
Development Council (SMEDC). It forged a
partnership with the Toyota Motor Philippines
Foundation (TMPF), the Automotive
Association of the Philippines (AAP), and the
Land Transportation Office (LTO) for the
establishment of a world-class driving
academy in Parañaque. The Chamber was
also named as one of the partners of the
Philippine Chamber of Commerce and
Industry (PCCI) Committee on Quality,
Productivity and Global Competitiveness in
the implementation of projects on quality and
productivity that will help small and medium
enterprises in the city.
2003. Engr. Serafin M. Pantaleon introduced a new
program of governance during his term as
President of PqCCI. Authority was devolved
to the vice-presidents who were then
empowered to strategize, conceptualize and
put into concrete action their strategic and
tactical objectives to achieve the goals of the
Chamber of PqCCI. This resulted in the
chamber becoming more pro-active and less
bureaucratic.
In addition to continuing the programs that
were started in the past, PqCCI conducted an
intensive campaign to improve the number
and quality of its membership base. The
Chamber collaborated with Rep. Eduardo C.
Zialcita on the publication of the Par One
Hundred, a coffee table book that serves as a
useful reference for those interested in doing
business in Parañaque.
PqCCI supported the government’s drive on
the development of small and medium
enterprises. It worked closely with the local
government on the implementation of the
Barangay Micro Business Enterprise
(BMBE) Law in Parañaque City. PqCCI
played an instrumental role in the non-
passage of a draft city ordinance that could

History (continued)
have imposed an environmental and ecological
fee on all real estate properties within the city.
PqCCI also initiated the creation of a core group of
human resource decision-makers that would
regularly meet to discuss common issues and
concerns.
2004. Engr. Augusto C. Soliman led the Chamber to
greater heights on its tenth year of existence. He
enjoined businessmen in Parañaque City to strive
for excellence, which will lead the business
community to exciting new directions towards
achieving global competitiveness in the areas of
technology, human resource, and organizational
structure.
The Chamber assumed a more pro-active stance
in poverty alleviation through the implementation
of the Kasanayan sa Kabuhayan Tungo sa
Kaunlaran Program to support the Gawad Kalinga
(GK) initiatives of Couples for Christ in Parañaque
City.
PqCCI collaborated with the local government on
the passage of key legislation, notable of which
were (1) the ordinance creating the Parañaque
Business Registry Databank and (2) the enabling
ordinance needed to implement the Barangay
Micro Business Enterprise (BMBE) Law.
The Chamber was given a Special Citation by the
Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry
(PCCI) for implementing vigorous and pro-active
initiatives for micro, small and medium enterprise
development, in partnership with the local
government and other stakeholders.
2005. Carmen C. Flores led the Chamber in pursuing its
vision of being the veritable voice of the business
community in Parañaque City more vigorously.
PqCCI had programs and projects that addressed
key issues such as business excellence and good
corporate citizenship, micro, small and medium
enterprise (MSME) development, environmental
protection, population management, poverty
alleviation and industrial peace and harmony.
For its leadership, dynamism, and delivery of
service, PqCCI was once gain named “Most
Outstanding Chamber for the National Capital
Region in 2005” by the Philippine Chamber of
Commerce and Industry (PCCI). This was the 3rd
award received by the Chamber, having been
About PqCCI
consecutively named as the Most Outstanding
Chamber in the National Capital Region in
1999 and 2000.
2006.Ernesto R. Evasco took over the chamber
leadership in 2006. Realizing the need to re-
examine where the chamber stood relative to
its avowed organizational directions, he
adopted the theme “Back to Basics” as the
bat tl e c r y for hi s te r m whi c h w as
unceremoniously cut off by his untimely
demise in July, 2006. During his aborted stint,
he pursued the major programs of the previous
leadership particularly on environmental
protection while focusing on membership
development and retention, and streamlining
of membership services. Alexander L. Flores
took over the presidency from August to
December, 2006. Despite an even shorter
term, Mr. Flores presided over the revival of the
Par a ň aq ue Bus ine ss Co nfer enc e i n
partnership with the city government headed
by Mayor Florencio M. Bernabe, Jr. As fate
would have it, PqCCI was adjudged “Most
Outstanding Chamber in the National Capital
Region” for the 4th time. It represented the
NCR in the Confederation of Asian Chambers
of Commerce and Industry (CACCI ) Regional
Awards in Taipei, Taiwan where it was declared
a finalist in the Small Chamber Category.
2007.Continuing the feat, Pedro C. Dumana, Jr.
reaped for PqCCI its third consecutive Most
Outstanding Chamber Award in 2007, a
product of his extraordinary talent to motivate
his fellow directors to cheerfully carry out
theirtasks.his term, the chamber embarked on
various civic and business projects: Medical
Missions, Candidates Forum and "Go Out and
Vote" Motorcades, training and seminars,
Quarterly Businessmen’s Kapihan, the
Parañaque Business Conference and the
Salambao Awards for Business Excellence
which he innovatively spearheaded from 2003
to 2007.
His leadership and organizing talent is
currentlyput to use in theManila Chambers of
Commerce and Industry, where he oversees
operations asGeneral.

“Forum for Progress”

The PqCCI’s 64th GMM featured the re-elected Mayor Florencio M. Bernabe, Jr. And Vice Mayor Gus Tambunting
of Parañaque City. The theme “Forum for Progress” aims to allow the local government deliver its
accomplishments and updates on what Parañaquenses may expect on the coming years, especially, with the
Mayor’s last term in office; and on the other hand, to allow the constituents to air their concerns on various issues
affecting the community as a whole.
