| The Meralco Compound lights up again! |
Every Christmas season, I would wait for the Meralco Compound to light up and see the spectacular lights and decorations. Last year, I enjoyed the
Christmas village with my friends since my office is near the Meralco premises. This November 25, Meralco has opened its Liwanag Park once again for everyone to enjoy and even launched its Maliwanag Ang Pasko Program for the less fortunate children.

Meralco, together with their Ambassador of Light, Ms. Shamcey Supsup, spearheaded the opening of the Meralco Liwanag Park where families and friends can enjoy a light show, Christmas Village, night bazaar, electric rides and more. What started last 2006, Maliwanag ang Pasko serves as Meralco's channels for supporting various charities by encouraging its customers to light up their homes this season.

Meralco Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Manny Pangilinan also wanted to invite everyone in their advocacy. After his talk, we all went outside the hall and counted for the whole compound to be lightened. The musical light show of a Christmas Medley was mesmerizing and it was then followed by a fireworks display. The event was fun! Thanks to Ms. Mitzi Dayrit and Martin for invite.

"Through the Maliwanag and Pasko Program, it is our desire to take an active role in sharing warmth and hope to every Filipino family and engage them to contribute to a better future for unprivileged children. By lighting up our homes together, we carry the light of Jesus, whom we are celebrating this season, to many Filipino children in need", said Meralco Chief Corporate Social Responsibility Officer and President of One Meralco Foundation Jeffrey Tayao.
