First Pacific Sells Victorias Milling Stake; Proceeds of ₱2.16 Press Release FIRST PACIFIC SELLS VICTORIAS MILLING STAKE Proceeds of ₱2.16 Bln; Focus Turns to Building on Roxas Holdings Investment Hong Kong, 18th February, 2016 – First Pacific Company Limited (“First Pacific” or the “Company”) (HKSE: 00142) today announced that it has agreed to dispose of its 14.8% shareholding in Philippine sugar milling and refining company, Victorias Milling Company, Inc. (“VMC”), in two transactions totaling ₱2.16 billion (US$45.3 million). First Pacific’s shares in VMC are held by affiliated companies. VMC itself has acquired 300.0 million shares while the second buyer, the LT Group, through its subsidiary, has acquired a total of approximately 131.9 million shares. Both transactions value the Manila-listed VMC at ₱5.00 per share. VMC’s share price closed up 20 centavos on Wednesday at ₱4.80. Notwithstanding the asset disposal, First Pacific remains committed to the Philippine sugar industry through its investment in Roxas Holdings Incorporated (“RHI”), a leading sugar and ethanol producer also listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange. First Pacific will now focus its management and financial resources within the industry on RHI, said First Pacific Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Manuel V. Pangilinan. “We are focusing our investment in the Philippine sugar industry on RHI and preparing for its rights issue announced earlier,” Pangilinan said. Last week RHI announced that its Board of Directors had approved in principal a rights offering of common shares to all shareholders. The offer size, entitlement ratio and offer price have not been set. * * * For further information, please contact: John Ryan Tel: (852) 2842 4374 Executive Vice President Mobile: (852) 6336 1411 Group Corporate Communications Sara Cheung Tel: (852) 2842 4336 Vice President Group Corporate Communications -#- .

  • Local Labour Market Change and Restructuring of the Sugar Industry in Northern Negros Occidental, Philippines 1946-2008
    WORKERS OF THE MILL: LOCAL LABOUR MARKET CHANGE AND RESTRUCTURING OF THE SUGAR INDUSTRY IN NORTHERN NEGROS OCCIDENTAL, PHILIPPINES 1946-2008 by Patrick Vince Oabel B.E.S., York University, 2000 M.A., University of British Columbia, 2003 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Geography) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2011 Patrick Vince Oabel, 2011 Abstract This dissertation is about the restructuring of a local labour market in the Global South. The central research question asks: how are local labour market processes and their various social outcomes reconfigured by industrial restructuring? On the ground, this meant asking: what are the ongoing labour market consequences for workers and the geographies they make? Employing concepts from the theoretical areas of the labour market, labour control, and labour geography, the dissertation pursues these questions by examining the development of the Philippine sugar industry and the evolution of an industrial labour market located in Victorias City in the central province of Negros Occidental. Drawing on analyses of historical documents, interviews, and 10 months of ethnographic research conducted during 2007, the study’s discussion focuses largely on the changing conditions, experiences and activities of the primary workers of the Victorias sugar mill. After identifying the broader regulatory social tendencies related to the economy and labour in Negros over the roughly 150 year history of the industry, I demonstrate how places like Victorias helped drive the wider institutional arrangements of Philippine export dependency and American imperialism during the early and mid twentieth century.

  • Conference on “CORPORATE GOVERNANCE in ASIA: a COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE”
    Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Organisation de Coopération et de Développement Économiques in co-operation with the Korea Development Institute and with the co-sponsorship of the Government of Japan and the World Bank Conference on “CORPORATE GOVERNANCE IN ASIA: A COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE” Cesar G. Saldaña, Ph.D. Principal, PSR Consulting PHILIPPINE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE ENVIRONMENT AND POLICY AND THEIR IMPACT ON CORPORATE PERFORMANCE Seoul, 3-5 March 1999 CORPORATE GOVERNANCE IN ASIA: A COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE Seoul, 3-5 March 1999 I. INTRODUCTION1 The Philippine corporate sector has become the focus of government’s efforts to cope with the Asian crisis and get back on track toward sustainable economic development. This came about after the Philippines underwent a political and economic upheaval in the 1980s, a full decade ahead of the current Asian crisis. During that period, the Philippine corporate sector dealt with issues like the state ownership of business, “crony capitalism” and state-sanctioned monopolies and subsidies to business. With a change in government in 1986, the country resolved to let government set the rules and private sector to conduct business. Part of the adjustments was a settlement of losses from “crony capitalism” and the failure of public corporations under the previous government. The unilateral debt moratorium declared by the government in the early 1980s lasted up to 1991. Only at about that time did the financial sector get back on solid footing and the private sector began to access the foreign debt markets to finance its investments and restructuring for growth. The corporate sector and the government emerged from the country’s crisis in 1991 clearly stronger because of valuable lessons learned on managing under crisis and on prudent investing and financing.
