In this issue

The month of August marks the occasion for this magazine to celebrate high-performing companies that excel in their respective fields. For a publication that promotes entrepreneurship and advocates the free market system, it is only appropriate for the editors to hand out kudos to companies that in the past year stood out in the nation’s ever-widening business horizon.

Our underlying message in featuring these high achievers is the desire to instill encouragement in other companies to emulate their more successful peers. For the more successful they become, the better the prospects are for job creation which in turn will turn the economic wheel further and faster.
Thanks to the combined forces of sharp business acumen, sound management and, perhaps more importantly, good fortune, the companies featured in this issue have made it with flying colors.
