SANTA ROSA, Laguna, March 20, 2026 — The president of Mekeni Food Corporation called on media practitioners and business leaders to go beyond delivering factual and unbiased information by actively promoting hope, especially amid ongoing global tensions affecting economies and communities.

Speaking during his acceptance as an honorary member of the Camp Vicente Lim Press Corps (CVLPC) on Friday, Pruds Garcia emphasized the critical role of both sectors in shaping public sentiment during uncertain times, including those influenced by international conflicts such as the situation involving Iran.
“While it is our responsibility to report and communicate the truth, it is equally important to inspire hope and resilience among our people,” Garcia said, underscoring the influence of media narratives and corporate leadership in guiding communities through crisis.

Garcia’s honorary membership was conferred in recognition of Mekeni Food Corporation’s significant contributions to the food industry and its expanding reach beyond Central Luzon to other key regions, particularly CALABARZON.

The oathtaking ceremony formed part of the CVLPC’s 23rd anniversary celebration held in Santa Rosa, gathering members of the press corps, stakeholders, and partners from various sectors.

CVLPC officials noted that the inclusion of representatives from the business sector highlights the growing importance of collaboration between media and industry in addressing societal challenges.

Founded in Pampanga, Mekeni Food Corporation has evolved from a regional enterprise into a recognized national brand, continuing to advocate for community development and responsible business practices.
