THE UNITED KINGDOM BACKS THE PHILIPPINES
ENGLAND IS THE HOME OF MODERN FOOTBALL (AKA SOCCER), AND BRITISH AMBASSADOR STEPHEN LILLIE, speaking from the Embassy of the United Kingdom in Manila, gives a strong thumbs up to doing business in the Philippines. To avoid confusion, England is part of Great Britain which is part of the United Kingdom which is part of the European Union.
Therefore with reference to the 2011 Royal Wedding, Prince William and Princess Catherine are now second in line to be King and Queen of the United Kingdom - but not of the European Union, although millions of Europeans have publicly expressed the opinion that 'Will & Kate' also belong to them, as Will's ancestors came to Britain from from Germany and they have branches all over Europe.
Stephen Lillie does not discuss this issue and states that the Philippine population of 92 million makes us the 3rd English-speaking country of the world. He goes on to praise the international success of Philippine call-centers, whose clients include British blue-chip companies such as Shell, HKBC, and the Financial Times.
He says that our battle against corruption is being won, and the presence of more than 200 major British companies here signifies clearly that now is an excellent time for British and other European companies to invest in the Philippines.
Enthusiastic about the developing popularity of Filipino football and the inspiring progress of the Philippine Askals, most Englishmen everywhere look forward to seeing them qualify for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, and they also hope that before then Filipino sports fans will join them in visiting the 2012 Olympics in London.

Forget the negative attitudes of stick-in-the-mud critics and do a Google search to see the creativity of Filipinos who have posted on the internet their own versions of DOT's inspiring
new tourism slogan. Who cares what the Swiss did in 1951? They didn't invent the English
language and they didn't coin the "it's more fun" phrase. Positive-thinking Filipinos like the
new slogan and are having lots of fun proving the truth in it. DOT deserves congratulations!

Offering homes inspired by the world’s finest destinations, Brittany Corporation, continuously develops Lifescapes — communities that provide for every family’s needs in a home — here and in Metro Manila.
The Quiros family, who initiated the grand vision for a masterplanned Sta. Rosa, steadfastly makes sure that every development stays true to their vision. Brittany shares
in this vision, fortifying one of the industry’s most solid partnerships. Across 15 years of partnership, Brittany Corporation and the Quiros family, have worked together to develop a neighborhood of thriving residential enclaves – Bellereve, Fontamara, Promenade, La Residencia and Hacienda Sta. Elena – that complement the nearby business and commercial areas of Sta. Rosa.
With an impeccable track record of developing masterplanned communities, and the shared grand vision of uplifting the quality of life for families, this partnership is bringing a magnificently idyllic future to Sta. Rosa.
There is a place where you can take pause from the day-to-day, where you can take time for yourself, your family and friends. That place is Georgia Club, an exclusive community where you can live among your own. Georgia Club is inspired by the great communities of the American south. Neo-Colonial homes prominently feature a porch for relaxing, for renewing one's spirits.

The star development along South Luzon Expressway, Georgia Club is your home for taking a breather, to refresh and renew. It is your perfect place for a time out touched by American southern charm.
It's everywhere - that American southern touch. It's in the homes, the warm welcoming atmosphere, the tall sprawling trees, the gentle pace of life. Here you live a refined life on the upper crust and among your own. This is life as it is in the state of Georgia - life in the exclusive community of Georgia Club. It is inspired by the charming communities of the American southern states. A place with lyrical quality.
Homes of Colonial architecture, surrounded by trees and gardens. Where you are among your own. Where you enjoy the luxury of an upper crust life. These are all the reasons you’ll have Georgia in mind.
Georgia Club is a realization of the partnership between real estate maverick Brittany Corporation and the Quiros family of Sta. Rosa. Masterplanned across an initial 30 hectares, it is an exclusive gated community right at the heart of Santa Rosa Laguna, the most vibrant thriving growth area south of Manila.
The elements of Georgia Club are the homes, the amenities, the central location and the accessibility which combine to become the setting for a life most refined….an expansive community of residential enclaves surrounded by commercial and business areas, connected by accessible roads and set in hectares of idyllic land.
Georgia Club complements the Brittany developments of Bellereve, Fontamara, Promenade and La Residencia, and the Quiros development of Hacienda Sta. Elena. With Georgia Club, the shared vision of Brittany and the Quiros family is fast becoming a grand reality. Situated near the commercial area of thriving Sta. Rosa, Georgia Club is close to everything vital to answering one’s needs in daily life. And it is conveniently situated between Tagaytay’s leisure destinations and the commercial and business areas of Alabang and Makati.
Some of the country’s premiere academic institutions are also close by, including the University of Sto. Tomas. The world class Asian Hospital and other medical facilities are a short drive away. Moreover, access to and from Georgia Club is easy. You can take the traditional route via the Sta. Rosa exit or take the new Asia Brewery -Greenfield Interchange. It is a shorter, quiet, and more leisurely drive to Georgia Club. Practically all roads lead to this star development in Santa Rosa.
Georgia Club’s charming homes take on classic American southern architecture. Wrought iron fences surround each house. Vibrantly colored shutters on French windows serve as colorful openings to a glimpse of the verdant land. The brightly colored doors are a welcome sight. The welcoming atmosphere and the relaxed lifestyle make for an environment conducive to a life more genteel. A life that all exudes southern charm.
