Bobby's Career Path:

    Here are some highlights of my career path: As you remember, I left medical school in 1969 to establish an airline career and worked for Pan Am in Cebu. After 4 years, I was promoted and transferred to the Manila office of Pan Am. In 1980, I became the only Filipino to have won the prestigious President's Sales Award of Pan Am so, after the awarding (gold watch, lifetime passes, US$5000 cash, etc.) ceremony in New York, the local press played it up and Hyatt Regency Manila "pirated" me by offering me 3 times the salary I was getting at Pan Am. I joined Hyatt as Director of Sales in 1981. In 1985, I was offered to become General Manager of Thomas Cook. In 1987, I was offered the position of Managing Director of Thai Airways and in 1989 until my retirement 2 years ago (year 2000), I was the General Manager of Northwest Airlines in the Philippines. Right after I retired from NW on March 31, 2000, I spent a whole month taking a leisurely cruise around the world with my 3 children. When I came back in May, I opened my own Public Relations and Events Management company called IdeaZ.

    My company has been doing very well the past 2 years, in spite of the 9/11 tragedy and the financial crisis. Among my "international" clients who have hired me on a monthly retainer fee are: Citibank, Thai Airways, Haagen Dazs Ice Cream, AND 1 Basketball Shoes, Nunn Bush footwear, FUBU apparel, the Macau Government, and many other local companies.

    Send me the e-mail of those in our CIM Class you are in touch with and I'll contact those who I feel would still remember me.
