SEN. Juan Edgardo “Sonny” M. Angara is expected to discuss issues and concerns affecting the preneed industry as keynote speaker and guest of honor of leading preneed company Eternal Plans Inc. on March 3 at the Citystate Tower Hotel on Mabini Street, Ermita, Manila.
As it honors its top sales producers for 2014, Eternal Plans also celebrates its 34th foundation anniversary. The company, which offers life, pension and education plans, was established by Ambassador Antonio L. Cabangon Chua, chairman emeritus, in 1981 initially to complement the services offered by sister-company Eternal Gardens with its memorial life plan product.
The event has the theme “Committed,” expressing the company’s determination to live up to its promise to plan holders to secure their future. It will be attended by top management, officers and staff, and sales agents and executives from the branches nationwide of Eternal Plans.
Angara’s father, former Sen. Edgardo J. Angara, is acknowledged as a great champion of the preneed industry for having authored and vigorously pushed for the enactment of the Pre-need Code of the Philippines, or Republic Act 9829.
The code, signed into law by former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo in December 2009, seeks to protect plan holders and ensure the viability of the industry.
Elmer Lorica, president and COO of Eternal Plans, said Angara shared his father’s concern for the preneed industry and “would have valuable ideas, insights and thoughts to share with us and inspire our people, especially our sales force members, to work with more vigor and enthusiasm.”
Eternal Plans is a member of the Eternal Group of Companies, also founded by Cabangon Chua, which includes Eternal Gardens Memorial Park and Eternal Crematory & Chapels Corp.
