Ilocanos Who Made It BIG!

[gr8-one]

Adda ammo yo nga ilocano wenno ilocana nga nagbalin nga very successfull iti profession wenno career na? Let me be the first to share someone's success.

This is a guy I've never met my whole life.
(I did meet the father, but it wasn't in a very pleasant way) :)
Anyway, this guy's success inspired me through my college years and up to this day, he never failed to amaze me.

Sapay koma ta ma-inspire na kayo met!

[IronMaiden]

Here's another Ilocano who's making waves in US politics:

http://eidanetsolutions.com/manayan/img/manayan_cityhall.jpg


FOR Henry Manayan, the glass is always half full, not half empty. In tackling the fiscal woes of California, he says the correct approach is to look into opportunities for expanding resources, instead of focusing on the lack of it.

This underpins his bid for the California State Assembly.

Manayan seeks to represent the 20th district composed mostly of Silicon Valley communities like Fremont, Newark, Union City, Milpitas and San Jose, as well as Pleasanton, Castro Valley and Hayward. His vision for the future is economic development by harnessing the golden state?s multicultural diversity to create opportunities for jobs and growth.

That?s niche marketing applied to governance. Nothing new for the venture capitalist who steered Milpitas, Calif. from its farming roots into the high-tech world of Silicon Valley.

The son of an Ilocano surgeon and a Chinese nurse, Manayan made his mark in California politics as the mayor who brought big business into Milpitas, allowing the city to ride the crest of the technology wave. It was during his tenure that Cisco, Sony, Veritas and Macronix set up shop there. Business parks came into being, as did the Great Mall, and a new City Hall that evoked what Milpitas had become ? a sophisticated and well-planned community.

In fact, Milpitas was in such state of boom that traffic jams and housing became problematic. True to form, Manayan did not fret. Instead, he made it attractive for companies to build affordable housing projects.

This eventually led to the sprouting of such residential enclaves within the city. He also recognized that the only way to ease gridlock was to expand access roads and mass transit systems. The 237/880 Interchange, Tasman Overpass and the Dixon Landing Overpass were thus added to the Milpitas scenery.

In an interview with Philippine News, Manayan said his motivation to seek the 20th district seat is to ?see things done on a larger scale,? especially for the 1.2 million Filipinos living in California.

?It?s an opportunity to break the glass ceiling. The first time we?ll be major players in the nation,? he said. And since California is home to 35 million people, its representation is also ?most influential.?

This prospect is not lost to the National Federation of Filipino American Associations (Naffaa), which is helping Manayan radiate fund-raising efforts nationwide through the Internet. Just a few weeks into his campaign, Manayan has raised some $25,000. By the end of the month, that figure should hit $100,000. The overall requirement is from $400,000 to half a million.
Manayan considers campaigning to be a ?part-time job? at this time ? it being done mostly in the evenings after a workday filled with business meetings that start at 7:30 a.m.

But it is during those community meetings that he gets a sense of what is to come. Which is why he is unfazed by outgoing 20th District Assemblyman John Dutra?s endorsement of another candidate. After all, apart from the endorsements of U.S. Congressman Mike Honda, San Francisco County Supervisor Pete McHugh, and Assemblyman Leland Yee, he perceives a groundswell of grassroots support for his candidacy.

He says the meetings ? be they with the FilAm community, the Chinese, Indians, or Vietnamese ? boost his spirit because of the positive encouragement that goes all around.

Manayan was born in Bronx, N.Y. and grew up in Hawaii, before moving to the Silicon Valley when he attended the Santa Clara University School of Law to earn his juris doctorate. He has served public office in Milpitas since 1994 when he was elected to the City Council.

He was mayor of Milpitas from 1996 to 2002.

With the support of the ilocanos of Cali - I know Manayan will make it. Just hang in there, Henry!

[Anakin Skywalker]

Wow! Ilokanokunam man giyem!!!

Taga ano met ni Henry Manayan, IronMaiden?

[IronMaiden]

I don't know where he's from, Anakin.
Speaking of Palafox, I've heard about his great works - not only in the Philippines but around the world.

gr8-one, are you into the field of architecture, too? I hope you don't mind my asking.

[BIG]

wow

[gr8-one]

I don't know where he's from, Anakin.

gr8-one, are you into the field of architecture, too? I hope you don't mind my asking.
Iron Maiden, I don't mind at all.

I finished Architecture but I am not "100%" into it. And although Felino Jr. was one of my inspirations ( :lol: ), I couldn't come close to his achievements. He's way up there and I'm way down here.

Winnie Fred, I don't have any comprehensive background info about him except that I am confident he is a Bacarreno.

Cheers!

[Donna]

Mr. Manayan's roots are from Pasuquin. If I am not mistaken, his daughter was also a beauty queen in the U.S.

[Windoc]

Ala ket suportaran yo ngarud kakabsat tapno adda met Ilocano blood yanta California State Assembly.

My initial thought was, he was from Bacarra ta adda ngamin am-ammok nga taga Bacarra nga ag-Manayan. Taga Natba (brgy. 33). But it doesn't matter - basta taga Ilocos Norte. :) Good Luck, Henry!

[FlushedMX]

Anyone else?
Don't tell me these are the only Ilocanos who made it big!!! :lol:

[InabrawSaluyot]

Marami pa akong alam...

Solivens, sila yung realty developer ng mga Soliven group of Companies. In fact, I'm living in one of their subdivisions. Taga-Isabela sila.

Si Rina Jimenez David ata ay taga-Laoag, am not sure tho...

Roy Cimatu is from Bangui.

Si Alfonso Lista, taga-Lapaz, Laoag City

Jose Aspiras Sr., taga-La Union.

Al Mendoza, a sports columnist from Inquirer is from Mangatarem, Pangasinan

Juan Flavier ata taga-Baguio, pero alam ko Ilokano yun, e.

Speaking of palafox...me vision pala yan for Laoag...The Ilocandia Heights, I wonder kung existing na itong subd. na ito. :)

[FlushedMX]

Palafox Associates is one of the biggest - if not the biggest - architectural firm in the Philippines today.

The firm is responsible for the various landmarks we see around Metro Manila.

[Maharlika]

Who is Alfonso Lista?

[InabrawSaluyot]

Oooops, sorry, not Alfonso, BUT Ruben Lista, sorry for the typo.

naging isa siya sa mga pinakamataas na lider ng Philippine Navy. :)

Palafox is the one who designed sevral malls here in Manila and some more rsidences. I wonder kung yung Ilocandia Heights ay natuloy na. :)

He's one great architect.

[BB-M]

According to the website, the Palafox Associates also does projects in the rest of asia. Wow! Big-time nga talaga.

[FlushedMX]

Ilocandia Heights?
I would love to buy a property there!

Let me guess (wild guess):
When they say heights it's on an elevated location - like atop a hill. So I would say Ilocandia Heights will be in Ermita Hill? :lol:

Let me know when the houses are ready for "liquidation" or for sale :lol:

[BB-M]

Eric Ang- a Laoage?o - won the gold for the Phil. Shooting team in Vietnam.

[Anakin Skywalker]

Book of Psalms
Chapter 1 How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!

1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night.

1:3 -He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers.

[BenLopez]

Anybody can translate this in layman's terms please?

[BIG]

Hey, I consider myself an ilocano success :)


I may not have the big name or many articles written about me, but I do have a degree in architecture, started up an interactive firm which was later bought out, and now work for a great company as a web programmer. I own a home, a car, an african grey parrot, married a beautiful half japanese half white girl, and must say that I'm enjoying life of health and happiness.


Ok, now that the touting is done, I can honestly say that I'm thankful and honored that God has put me in a position to help others. I think that if you're capable of that, you can consider yourself a success also.

one of the most affordable business that anyone can put up is an online business, which is unlike having a physical business where you have to deal with warehousing, inventory, shipping/recieving and so on. i've been doing this for more than 3 yrs now and i average on a slow day about $250 - $750 and on a good day, average of $750 - $1350 - THAT'S IN A DAY, imagine how much is that. eversince i started i haven't worked a day in my life and i just spent no more than 2 hours in front of my computer to check my earnings.

now i'm bringing you all this opportunity to bring about your life and stop doing hard labor just to earn a small amount to keep bringing food to the table. would you choose to wake up really early in the morning and spent 8 to 10 hours or maybe more on your job being bossed around by a mean supervisor, or do what i'm doing and earn substantially and stop working for someone else and be your own boss. you decide...

visit http://www.e-bizprofessionals.com

and in case you think you can't do it... don't worry, there's another way for you to earn.. we offer $15 per paid referral, NO CAPITAL NEEDED, JUST YOUR TIME. visit our site and go to our referral page and you figure out what you have to do next... it will be explained to you there.

para kadakayo amin daytoy nga oportunidad, kakabsat.
