Christmas 2009 in Manila
Indeed, Christmas is meant to be a season of caring and of giving. But is it?
Early morning Christmas Day, I needed to buy some things at Concepcion Wet-Market - thus, I needed to park my car in one side-street nearby. On my return, I had a Father-Son Duo standing beside my car and meeting me with frowning faces. They were angry that I parked my car blocking exit of their parked car inside their garage bearing the signage: "Keep Driveway Open". As a driver myself, I have always tried… Continue

Typhoon Ondoy and the "Filipino Pride" ... washed away, perhaps?
"Rain rain go away come again another day." But this was not the case last Saturday - September 26th. I was caught by surprise with Typhoon Ondoy's heavy downpour as J P Rizal Avenue (the main road running parallel to Marikina River, coming from Marikina City Proper, towards Concepcion, Marikina) was suddenly knee-deep - thus stalling all vehicles on the road. I had to walk through the rain-water flood, inching slowly towards Concepcion Commercial Center, needing to buy 3 bowls of Tropical… Continue

Philiippines: An Attractive Business Location in the Asia-Pacific
As more and more nation-states of the Free World tear down national barriers to facilitate free flow of Goods & Services, Foreign Capitalists could look upon the Philippines as an alternative business location.
Herewith are some good reasons to consider: (1st) As a Tropical Country, the Philippines is endowed with its own wide variety of indigenous rich Natural Resources; (2nd) As an archipelago in the Pacific Far East, the Philippines' network of Sea Ports & Airports make… Continue

Empowering Electric Cooperatives in the Philippines
01. As Electricity is the primary precondition for economic progress of a nation, our Philippine Government (inclusive of all past & present Administrations) had made repeated pronouncements of its nationwide distribution of Electricity. Reaching out into the far-flung remote villages in an archipelagic nation is indeed a complex Technical, Financial, & Management problem. But adding the Evils-of-Politics into the equation has made this nationwide Electrification Program an unfulfilled… Continue

Rosemarie Nillasca said… - Hi
Sorry for delayed reply to your queries, been busy lately. I used to work in a multinational bank then moved to development bank giving out loans to SME. With this, background, I got into microfinance work, do a bit of training for coops, women groups, etc.
Regarding your query about how to get funding as conduit, you have to apply for it. Where is your area of operation? There are a lot of funding agencies that finance microfinance services to poor household and communities. One of the govt. agency is PCFC, they are second tier funding agency. meaning they approved loans submitted by NGOs, Microfinance orgs. coops with microfinance activities. These microfinance providers will act as conduit. as you mentioned in your email, you are qualified as one. I used to work with CARE Phils. in their Economic Devt. Unit, we handle microfinance funding for our partners like coop. As an int'l. NGO we also access PCFC for funds, and these funds we lent to our partners like coops. , we act as conduit. Loans are very minimal.
Other commercial banks like Citibank, BPI, UCP also give assistance but I'm not familiar with their program. The best bet is to try PCFC.
Goodluck, I hope I answered your question.

- Yes, as long as the coop is registered with CDA. If you need funding, it depends on the kind of project you are implementing now or will be inmplementing. Your coop can access funding from different finance institution, as long as you have a viable project.
Try accessing SEAD, INC., ASA, CARD Bank, etc.

I am interested in developing business on the Complex Waste recovery system with automatic separation unit. I want to facilitate the of some of this units and dispatch them to various locations across my country. I want to discuss modalities with the manufacturer as this would entail huge capital to be invested strategically in public private sector partnership. Hope to hear from you
