Zamboanga Remembered
In Zamboanga Remembered, Cesar Lee brings to life his childhood home, Zamboanga City. The exuberant freedom of growing up in the Philippines during the 30's and 40's is counterbalanced by the effects of the Depression and the Japanese invasion of World War II. But children will be children, no matter where they live or what their circumstances, and Zamboanga Remembered provides a wonderful child's-eye view of a world some of us can only imagine.

Dealing with themes such as repentance, forgiveness, partnership, and multiculturalism, How Long, O Lord? offers a thorough, academic investigation of the ministry of reconciliation that will be useful for pastors, counsellors, and scholars in various contexts.
The Report: Philippines 2016
The Philippines emergence as a growth leader has been building gradually since the 1990s, following a long period of low growth and political upheaval. As of the 2010s improved governance under the administration of President Benigno Aquino III has helped to accelerate foreign direct investment (FDI) in business process outsourcing while reviving FDI into the manufacturing sector. This, and a demographic bulge in the young adult bracket, helped bring the average pace of growth in the first half of the 2010s to 6.3%, beating all the country’s main South-east Asian peers.
