Message My warmest greetings to all the members and incoming officers of Filipino Chinese Dental Foundation Inc for the year 2016-2017. Our theme for this year, “Unity and Reforms Towards Excellence in Philippine Dentistry�, aptly describes my aspiration for our beloved Philippine Dental Association. The call for unity in this time of diversity is a very timely action in order for all of us to move forward towards excellence in whatever field of practice we are into. Let us focus on our vision of becoming world-class dental practitioners by stepping up to the plate and continually seek higher learning. In the advent of integrated practice of other nations in the country, we must prove that we can be at par, if not even better to our foreign counterparts. As we all begin our year of service, let us strive to be of true service to our chapters and affiliates by making decisions with responsibility and transparency in order for us to earn the trust and confidence of our peers. We are after all servant-leaders, and as such should be accountable for all our actions. Together, let us inspire and be the beacon of light in our own chapter and affiliate. Maraming Salamat po. Mabuhay ang Dentistang Pilipino, Mabuhay ang Philippine Dental Association!
