As P.A. Alvarez Properties and Development Corporation (P.A. Properties) marks its 31st year in the industry, we are proud to introduce our anniversary theme: “Expanding Horizons, Advancing Together.”
Over the past three decades, P.A. Properties has matured from building strong foundations to delivering thriving residential communities and forging enduring partnerships. This year’s theme reflects our commitment to launching new projects, deepening our market reach, and exploring new development frontiers, and emphasizes our collaborative journey—with our homeowners, communities, brokers and sellers, partners and stakeholders—towards shared growth and innovation.
Addressing the Housing Backlog
The challenge before us in the Philippine housing sector is significant. The Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) reports a nationwide backlog of approximately 6.5 million housing units as of 2022 (Manila Bulletin 2025).Left unaddressed, this figure could escalate to 10 million units by 2028(Politko 2022). This is a gap that demands concerted effort from all stakeholders—including private-sector developers like us.
“At P.A. Properties, we believe that behind every home is a story,” said Atty. Marianne Reyna Lina Cruz, P.A. Properties CEO and President. “As we celebrate 31 years of service, our goal is to build not just homes but communities that reflect the dreams and aspirations of Filipino families—while helping address the nation’s housing needs.”
The company is expanding its reach by launching new residential and mixed-use projects in key growth areas, while fostering stronger partnerships with financial institutions and industry stakeholders to enhance housing accessibility and delivery. Guided by innovation and mindful design, P.A. Properties remains committed to building resilient and inclusive communities where every homeowner’s story is one of opportunity, dignity, and progress.
As we celebrate this 31-year milestone, we look ahead with optimism—and purpose. With “Expanding Horizons, Advancing Together,” we embark on the next chapter of our journey, one that merges new projects, wider reach and stronger partnerships so that we may shape better lives—together.

MOLD Manila, the best non-surgical aesthetic clinic in White Plains and Baesa, Quezon City, proudly announces its Pre-Holiday Skincare Prep Campaign, a seasonal initiative designed to help clients look radiant, refreshed, and confident for the festive season. Through science-backed treatments such as rejuvenating facials, skin boosters, and contouring solutions, the campaign encourages clients to begin their glow-up journey early — ensuring luminous skin and body confidence by December.
Manila, Philippines – October 2025 — The most wonderful time of the year is approaching, and with it comes the excitement of reunions, holiday parties, and countless photo moments. To help clients feel their most confident this season, MOLD Manila, the best non-surgical aesthetic clinic in White Plains and Baesa, Quezon City, has officially launched its Pre-Holiday Skincare Prep Campaign.
This limited-time campaign features a selection of MOLD Manila’s most sought-after treatments — each one designed to deliver safe, visible results without surgery or extended downtime. By combining science-based procedures with personalized care, MOLD Manila empowers clients to achieve refreshed, glowing skin and enhanced body confidence in time for the festivities.
“The holidays are all about confidence and connection, and we want our clients to feel their most radiant,” said Adrielle Costales, Founder and CEO of MOLD Manila. “By starting treatments in October or November, clients can maximize results and step into December looking fresh, youthful, and ready for every celebration.”
Mold Manila | Holiday Glow
A Head Start on the Holiday Glow
MOLD Manila’s Pre-Holiday Skincare Prep Campaign emphasizes the importance of starting early. Many of the clinic’s rejuvenation and contouring treatments work gradually — stimulating collagen, improving hydration, and refining texture over several weeks. Beginning in October or November ensures that by the time the holidays arrive, clients can enjoy the full, natural-looking results of their treatments.
Whether preparing for a corporate gathering, a long-awaited reunion, or year-end travels, clients can choose from MOLD Manila’s tailored, non-surgical solutions that target dullness, dehydration, uneven tone, and fatigue — common skin concerns during the holiday rush.
Key Features of the Pre-Holiday Skincare Prep Campaign
1. Skin Rejuvenation Treatments
Healthy skin renewal begins with targeted rejuvenation. MOLD Manila offers chemical peels, microneedling, and laser facials to stimulate cell turnover, improve texture, and restore luminosity. These treatments gently resurface the skin, helping fade fine lines, smooth uneven tone, and unveil a youthful glow.
“Our goal is to bring back vitality to tired skin,” shares Adrielle. “With regular sessions, clients can expect visibly brighter and healthier skin that photographs beautifully during the holidays.”
2. Skin Boosters for Deep Hydration
For that “lit-from-within” radiance, MOLD Manila’s hyaluronic acid-based skin boosters work from beneath the surface to rehydrate, plump, and smooth the skin. These microinjections deliver hydration directly to the dermis, improving elasticity and giving the complexion a fresh, dewy finish.
“Our skin boosters are perfect for clients who want to restore glow without downtime,” Adrielle adds. “It’s one of our most popular treatments before the holiday season because it delivers results that look effortless.”
3. Body Contouring and Sculpting
To help clients feel confident in their party outfits or swimwear for year-end getaways, MOLD Manila’s non-invasive contouring treatments offer gentle, effective toning. These procedures help tighten and refine body contours — giving clients a smoother, more defined silhouette without surgery.
“Our body treatments are about refinement and self-assurance,” says Adrielle. “We’re not changing who you are — we’re enhancing your natural form so you can move through the holidays feeling your absolute best.”
4. Brightening and Pigment Control
Even skin tone is one of the hallmarks of a radiant complexion. MOLD Manila’s brightening and pigment-correcting treatments address sun damage, dark spots, and uneven tone through medically guided protocols. The result is skin that looks more luminous, balanced, and glowing under any lighting.
5. Relaxation and Self-Care Sessions
In the spirit of holiday wellness, MOLD Manila also encourages clients to indulge in facials and wellness sessions designed to calm the mind while rejuvenating the skin. These relaxing treatments combine the clinic’s signature care with a serene atmosphere — offering a much-needed escape from the stress of the season.
Why Timing Matters
Aesthetic experts agree that visible, long-lasting results don’t happen overnight. Procedures like microneedling, skin boosters, and peels require a few weeks for the skin to renew and reveal its best glow. By booking in October or November, clients give their skin the chance to heal and reach peak radiance just in time for December festivities.
Early preparation also allows for customized treatment planning, a core part of MOLD Manila’s approach. Every client undergoes an initial consultation where their skin type, goals, and schedules are considered — ensuring that all procedures work harmoniously together for optimal outcomes.
“At MOLD Manila, we believe beauty prep should be both effortless and effective,” Adrielle explains. “The earlier clients start, the more time their skin has to regenerate naturally — no rush, no panic appointments, just healthy, confident results.”
The MOLD Manila Difference
As the best non-surgical aesthetic clinic in White Plains and Baesa, Quezon City, MOLD Manila continues to redefine beauty through integrity, science, and artistry. Each treatment is administered by trained professionals and supported by medical-grade technologies — ensuring that safety and efficacy are never compromised.
From its thoughtfully designed interiors to its personalized aftercare guidance, every detail at MOLD Manila reflects a commitment to quality and trust. Clients appreciate not just the visible improvements to their skin and body, but also the clinic’s transparency and genuine care.
“Our clients come to us for more than results,” Adrielle shares. “They come for reassurance — knowing that their treatments are designed for their specific needs, not driven by trends or overpromises.”
MOLD Manila’s Pre-Holiday Skincare Prep Campaign perfectly captures the brand’s philosophy: beauty that’s natural, confident, and rooted in science. Whether through rejuvenating facials, advanced skin boosters, or non-surgical contouring, the clinic invites clients to experience the transformative power of preparation — glowing from the inside out as the holidays arrive.
Appointments for the campaign are now open at MOLD Manila White Plains and MOLD Manila Baesa. Clients are encouraged to book early to secure their preferred schedules before the December rush.
“This campaign isn’t just about glowing for the holidays,” Adrielle concludes. “It’s about starting a new year with renewed confidence — proof that when you invest in your skin early, it shows.”

Empower your team with PetroSync ASME Training — transform technical mastery into leadership and stay ahead in the oil and gas industry.
When Knowledge Becomes the Competitive Edge You Can’t Afford to Lose
In the fast-paced oil and gas industry, technical knowledge is not just an asset—it’s a competitive weapon. While your competitors are upgrading their engineering standards and compliance systems, one question remains: Are you keeping up?
Companies that invest in their teams’ ASME competence see a measurable difference. According to a Deloitte survey, organizations that regularly upskill technical professionals report a 37% higher productivity rate and 25% faster project delivery. These numbers don’t just reflect performance—they represent survival in a market where precision and safety define reputation.
That’s why PetroSync’s ASME Training is more than just a course; it’s a strategic investment in your business resilience.
The Hidden Cost of Falling Behind in Technical Mastery
Every untrained engineer is a missed opportunity. A small error in pressure calculation or piping specification could mean thousands of dollars lost—or worse, operational downtime that damages client trust.
Without consistent exposure to updated ASME standards, many organizations face rising maintenance costs and inefficient workflows. Data shows that companies adopting structured ASME programs reduce operational inefficiencies by up to 30% and save an average of USD 500,000 annually through optimized equipment and team performance.
PetroSync bridges this critical knowledge gap with specialized programs, including:
ASME PCC-2 training – Master the repair of pressure equipment with precision and compliance.
ASME Section I training – Strengthen your understanding of power boiler design, fabrication, and inspection.
ASME B31.3 training – Gain deep insight into process piping standards that drive reliability and safety.
Each course is led by industry practitioners who bring not just theory, but decades of field experience—ensuring your team learns to prevent problems before they occur.
From Skilled Engineers to Strategic Leaders
Technical skills alone no longer define success; leadership does. Engineers who understand standards like ASME are better equipped to make confident decisions, lead multidisciplinary teams, and anticipate challenges before they escalate.
PetroSync’s ASME programs are designed to transform knowledge into leadership—helping your team become proactive thinkers, not just task executors. Studies have shown that organizations focusing on leadership development through technical mastery see a 20% improvement in decision-making efficiency and a significant drop in incident frequency.
Through this transformation, you’re not just training engineers—you’re developing future leaders who can align safety, cost, and innovation under one vision.
Partnering with PetroSync: Turning Technical Training into Business Results
Behind every successful operation lies a team that’s empowered, informed, and aligned with international standards. That’s where PetroSync steps in—bridging the gap between technical compliance and business performance.
PetroSync integrates modern tools, including AI-driven learning platforms and chatbot assistants, that make continuous learning efficient and cost-effective. With AI-enhanced modules, participants experience:
25% faster knowledge retention,
40% improved operational efficiency, and
Significant cost savings in training implementation and follow-up.
When you choose PetroSync, you’re not just signing up for a course—you’re embracing a partnership that fuels excellence, confidence, and innovation in your organization.
