Phase II of the “Breaking the Plastic Habit in ASEAN” project was successfully launched on 18 October 2024 at the ERIA office in Jakarta.

Phase II
of the “Breaking the Plastic Habit in ASEAN” project was successfully
launched on 18 October 2024 at the ERIA office in Jakarta. The event was
attended by more than 100 participants, both in person and online. This phase
brings together an expanded network of partner organizations, countries, and
project initiatives aimed at advancing sustainable plastic consumption across
the region. A two-day capacity-building workshop was held on 16-17 October
2024, alongside the launch event, to partner organizations for project
implementation from January to August 2025.

At the
event, Mr Reo Kawamura, Director of the Regional Knowledge Centre for Marine
Plastic Debris, emphasized, “The case studies will equip provide policymakers,
businesses, and civil society with practical skills for behavior-focused
projects. Combining Behavioural Insights with strong policies and cross-sector
partnerships will drive the changes needed to reduce plastic waste and promote
sustainability in ASEAN.”

Building
on the achievements of the previous project, Phase II extends the project to
six Southeast Asian countries, broadening the scope and diversity of
initiatives. These new projects will be implemented by a wide range of organizations,
originating from academic, governmental, business, and civil society background.
The initiative also introduces a new measurement framework designed to evaluate
the impact of ‘nudge’ interventions, providing practical tool for policymakers
and stakeholders.

Representatives
from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry of Indonesia stated “Civil
society movements promoting initiatives such as behavioural insights can
support government efforts to manage waste sustainably. I hope the success of
this project can be scaled up and implemented in other regions of Indonesia.” The
expanded Phase II projects will use Behavioural Insights to complement existing policies, such
as bans and taxes

As ASEAN
grapples with the global challenge of plastic pollution, Phase II of the
project reaffirms the collective commitment to fostering sustainable, long-term
change. Through increased collaboration across sectors and regions, the project
is set to contribute significantly to the shared vision of a cleaner and more
sustainable ASEAN.

The
project will be carried out by ERIA and the Institute for Global Environmental
Strategies (IGES).

P.A. Properties celebrates 30 years of stories of success, growth, and new beginnings

by | Oct 23, 2024 | Business

As P.A. Properties celebrates 30 years of building
communities and dreams, the stories behind the homes are taking center stage.
In the company’s three-decade journey, it’s not just the bricks and mortar that
matter, but the lives touched and transformed through homeownership. With the
anniversary theme, “Behind every
home is a story”, P.A. Properties proudly highlights the stories of
its buyers, sellers, brokers, and employees.

Homebuyers have found more than just a house; they’ve
found spaces to build their dreams. One such story is from Maila Damyong, a 31-year-old HR Supervisor, who, with her
boyfriend, embarked on a journey to find their future home. She shares:

“I have been residing at St. Joseph Village in
San Pedro, Laguna. Preparing for the future ahead, my boyfriend and I decided
to look for a house before we got married.”

After months of searching, Maila’s boyfriend
discovered a property in St. Joseph Homes Calamba, which they visited
immediately. “The first time we visited the property and heard the agent’s
promotional offer, we immediately decided to purchase the house on the same
day,” Maila recalls. The decision to buy was made easier by the smooth
transaction process and the village’s excellent location. “I am very much
happy with our new home. I’m rating it a 10 out of 10,” she says.
“The village is very accessible to everywhere!”

For sellers and brokers, their partnership with P.A.
Properties has meant more than business transactions—it has been a journey of
shared success. One such story is that of Victor
B. Bayais Jr., Managing Director at Granwood Sales Division, who has been
in the industry for 19 years and is a licensed broker for five years.

Victor’s journey with P.A. Properties has been nothing
short of remarkable. He recalls how Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), driven by
the desire to provide a better future for their families, have been a
significant part of his career. “I realized that OFWs not only provide
financial support but also aspire to buy a home for their families,”
Victor shared.

“This experience in my job made me realize that
OFWs investing in Philippine real estate is a truly rewarding decision. They
work hard and save diligently to fulfill their dream of owning a home,”
Victor said. “Even while adapting to new cultures abroad, our OFWs never
give up on their goal of securing a home for their families. Their resilience
and determination are truly heartwarming.”

For employees, P.A. Properties has been a source of
both professional and personal growth. Thess
Amante, Lead – Accounting, has been with the company for an impressive 28
years. Reflecting on her journey, Thess shared:

“This nurturing environment allowed me to develop
my skills and recognize my strengths, leading to significant personal and
professional growth. I greatly value P.A. Properties for its family-oriented
culture, which promotes a supportive and inclusive environment. This focus on
family dynamics and work-life balance enhances the workplace experience and
aligns with my values, fostering belonging and support.”

Thess began working with P.A. Properties while still
an undergraduate studying Accountancy. With the company’s support, she was able
to balance both her job and education, eventually earning her degree in
2017.  More importantly, her job has
allowed her to provide education for her three children and secure her own
family’s home—a true reflection of P.A. Properties’ mission to help families
thrive.

Looking Ahead:
The Next Chapter

The journey doesn’t end here. With 20 new communities
planned over the next five years, P.A. Properties remains dedicated to
addressing the housing needs of the nation while empowering its homeowners,
brokers, and employees. “We’re writing new stories every day,” says
President and CEO, Atty. Marianne Reyna Lina Cruz. “As we continue to
grow, we invite everyone to be a part of the next chapter.”

Watch Out for
More Stories!

P.A. Properties is excited to share more inspiring
stories from homebuyers like Maila Damyong, brokers like Victor B. Bayais Jr.,
and employees like Thess Amante. Follow our social media for exclusive
interviews, videos, and highlights celebrating the people behind every home and
how P.A. Properties has shaped lives over the past 30 years—and continues to
shape the future.

A Marketing Symphony
