For many decades, LBC has provided service that goes above and beyond the norm to help customers.This is why it stands happy and proud behind the Aming Ligaya campaign, where LBC facilitates a more personal encounter between their exemplary LBC agents and customers they have served well.



A few months ago, LBC customer Ms. Roehlyn Del Rosario called the LBC hotline to follow up the delivery of her shipment containing clothes and cookies. After a few calls, Ms. Del Rosariospoke with LBC agent Jeca Poquita and TL Baylon Ausan and anxiously informed them that her consignee was scheduled to leave for abroad the next day and requested for the immediate delivery of her shipment. Agent Jeca and TL Baylon assured Ms. Del Rosario that her shipment would be delivered that same day and started to coordinate with other LBC employees to facilitate and monitor the delivery of Ms. Del Rosario’s shipment until it was successfully handed over to her consignee on that same day. On January 15, 2019, at the LBC Landmark Alabang Branch, Ms. Roehlyn Del Rosario was ableto personally meet Agent Jeca and TL Baylon via Aming Ligaya.


it was evident that Ms. Del Rosario was eager to meet the two LBC employees since she chose to meet up with them even though she just recently gave birth. Ms. Del Rosario was smiling as she spoke with agent Jecaand TL Baylon and thanked them for their assistance. She even apologized to agent Jeca for her frantic demeanor during her follow up calls and explained that her anxiety about her shipment got the best of her at the time. At the end of their meet, Ms. Del Rosario expressed her gratitude by saying that the service she received from agent Jeca and TL Baylon was extra-ordinary and their actions have given her the confidence and trust to continue using LBC for her future transactions. LBC Agent Jeca and TL Baylon were visibly happy and delighted as they met and interacted with Ms. Del Rosario. Jeca said that it was nice to speak with a customer face to face and feel her sincere appreciation. Agent Jeca also mentioned that meeting Ms. Del Rosario made her realize how being sincere and dedicated to her job genuinely helped people.



Both Agent and TL were likewise glad to meet a customer and said he was grateful that Ms. Del Rosario commended him personally. TL Baylon expressed that being part of LBC’s Aming Ligaya campaign made him want to continue serving more customers because it gave him the feeling of satisfaction knowing that all the effort he puts in his job pays off. The 

Aming Ligaya campaign is LBC’s way of shining the spotlight on LBC customers especially its exemplary employees and how essential it is to set a venue for them to interact after aservice has been well fulfilled. Moreover, through the campaign, LBC hopes to drive the message how much they value their people- and how committed they are in serving their customers the best way possible.

The Redmi 7, the latest budget smartphone from global technology leader Xiaomi, sold out within 30 minutes after it was put on sale last April 5 on Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. This made the Redmi 7 the fastest-selling smartphone under ₱6,000 on Shopee Philippines. To celebrate the record- breaking feat, Shopee and Xiaomi will once again hold a Flash Deal for the Redmi 7 on April 10 at 2PM.

Xiaomi is known for smartphones with amazing features at an affordable price and the Redmi 7 lives up to that standard. Here are seven things you should know about this budget phone with a flagship-level design.

1. Premium-style design
The Redmi 7 offers an immersive viewing experience with its Dot Drop design and reduced bezels, that’s all Corning® Gorilla® Glass. The case may be plastic but it feels premium in the hand, especially with its stylish gradient back cover available in Comet Blue and Lunar Red.

2. Powerful processor
It runs on the Qualcomm® SnapdragonTM 632 mobile platform and boasts of an Antutu score of 52520, outperforming other phones in its price range. This gives the Redmi 7 support for a smooth gaming experience and makes it great for daily use.

3. Infrared (IR) Blaster
The Redmi 7 comes with an IR blaster that turns the phone into a universal remote to control devices and appliances. No need to search the whole house for the remote control, just use the Redmi 7.

4. Palm Shutter
Selfies can be hard to take, but not with the Redmi 7. Use its Palm Shutter feature to conveniently take pictures. Just flash a palm to the camera, like a high five, and the camera will instantly start a countdown timer perfect for getting selfies or groufies on point. Users should watch out because more gestures will be added soon.

5. 4,000 mAh battery
With a 4,000 mAh battery, the Redmi 7 can last up to 15 hours of continuous video playback, 26 hours of voice calls and an astounding 412 hours of standby time. Users can also listen to 3,778 tracks continuously on a single charge.

6. True dual sim tray
Many dual smartphones sport a hybrid sim card tray, where only one slot is dedicated to a sim card, and the other is a hybrid sim card-memory card slot. With the Redmi 7, on the other hand, users can have all three running at the same time with its three card tray - two slots for sim cards and one for the memory card. Perfect for people who want all their contacts and data in one device.

7. Available exclusively on Shopee
Last but not least, the Redmi 7 is available exclusively on Shopee and will go on Flash Deal at 2PM on April 10, where the Comet Blue Redmi 7 with 2GB RAM and 16GB memory will drop its price to ₱5,599, and the Redmi 7 variant with 3GB RAM and 32GB memory will be sold at the lower price of ₱6,299.

Beauty should never have been one or the other, as claimed by SkinWhite in their new
campaign.

Dark Skin versus White Skin. Does it really matter? Does one always have to be superior over the other? SkinWhite is saying otherwise.

One would wonder why a skin whitening brand such as SkinWhite would dare to say that dark skin is beautiful. “It’s all about choice”, says Rachelle Layda, Marketing Manager for Whitening of Splash Corporation. “SkinWhite is a brand that empowers women to choose. A choice to define their own standard of beauty. If you choose to have dark skin, you are beautiful. If you choose to have white skin, you are just as beautiful. The choice is yours, and SkinWhite respects that choice”.



This inclusivity is refreshing and speak volumes, especially at a time when shaming and bullying is prevalent across social media. Bashers and haters abound online with no agenda but to shame in all forms and ways – body-shaming, hair-shaming, race-shaming, gender-shaming, and yes, also skin-shaming. “This is precisely the stigma that we wish to change. Skin color should not be about one being better than the other”, adds Pam Sulit, Splash Corporation’s VP for Marketing.

“White and dark are both beautiful.” confirms Rachel Villanueva, Creative Director of Petch & Partners, the creative agency that created this campaign for SkinWhite. She continues, “It’s about time that dark skin and white skin get the same adoration and acknowledgment.”

There has never been an outright claim that DARK IS BEAUTIFUL. And for the statement to come from a skin whitening brand, it should be easy for others to follow suit. And for those who choose that WHITE IS BEAUTIFUL, there’s due acknowledgement that they’re simply taking control of their beauty too. And why not? Wear your skin, whichever way you choose. Because DARK OR WHITE, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.
