A Publishing Empire
[edit]Vibal rose from a small toy to a kingdom within a empire in a republican publication arena. Legacy? Yes, the queen and founder Esther Asuncion Vibal would bow down soon to enthrone Gus to the Golden Throne of Philippine Publication and education. Maybe this is a prophecy but I joined the 3 mystic dwarves in asking editors to expand this article, as when I created WikiPilipinas. ---Florentino floro (talk) 11:42, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
I had the instinct to create this and other articles on human Prosperity. Artemio Panganiban's 10 books focus on Prosperity, not of small Filipinos but the chosen few. Hilario Davide, denied my request on December, 1999, to resign amid the dwarf case amid Regino C. Hermosisima, Jr.'s information and gazing. Since July 20, 1999 until today, I am very proud to be jobless in pretend world, since these Filipino jurists taught me to master the art of pain. I created Zac Sunderland, since like this article of Vibal, many like these guys wanted to be world famous. In fact when I created Fernando Suarez, I faced a blank wall of homily -[1] - Suarez aimed to be mobbed, but the links about him are too few and often local. I stated on counter, that, evangelists do heal and resurrect the dead, make the lame walk daily. Even Chief Justices of the world do decide cases daily. But dwarf being blamed for making a judge Filipino jobless, that is immortal. Zac, Bedsworth, Vibal, Panganiban and Suarez, like Hermosisima will fade like the grass (Psalm 37), and you can't find them even with all these termite and dust Filipiniana, etc. But centuries later, Filipino dwarfs LUIS, Armand and Angel would be remembered and will never be forgotten even by little children, jurists, psychics, law students, and beggars, like myself. So I added this:
- (a “fully featured digital library and research portal”) - Vibal earned a Bachelor of Science degree in business economics from the University of the Philippines. He worked for 2 decades in the Philippine and American publishing industries. In 1983 Vibal migrated to New York to study at the New York University Book and Magazine Publishing Institute.[2] - WikiPilipinas, Filnet, ESP and e-turo.org - Vibal stated that: “Today, it (Filipiniana.net) has one of the widest and most comprehensive collection of hard-to-find Filipiniana books and documents categorized under history, geography, culture, government, and society. It also features photographs, maps, paintings and illustrations, the Virtual Philippine Revolutionary Records, 100 Nobelang Tagalog, Virtual Blair and Robertson, and the Master Union Bibliography of the Philippines, 100 Pinoy Komik Serials, Premio Zobel.org, and Archivo General de Filipinas." Vibal also announced the forthcomming birth of his brainchild e-turo.org.Inquirer.net, Rizaliana collection is book printer’s prized treasure - Rizaliana collection - Vibal has a 5-inch thick treasure collection of articles either written by, for, or about Dr. Jose Rizal, antiquated by dust and partly destroyed by termites. His wide collection of Filipiniana (printed works on Philippine history and culture) include:
- One volume of Ricardo Galang’s first Philippine Encyclopedia, published in 1939 (there were only 1,000 copies of the 20 volumes).
- One of the early copies of the 1935 Commonwealth of the Philippines Constitution of the Philippines.
- Historian Esteban Ocampo’s 40-year-old Rizaliana collection which he salvaged from the Heritage Art Center in Cubao, Quezon City.
- Copies of first editions of Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo.
He digitized such historical resources / articles and upload them for free on filipinana.net. and wikipilipinas.org. Vibal and associate, Jaime Marco, initiated the portal with the help of Spanish historian Carlos Madrid. - Partners - Vibal’s partners in the industry were Jeroen Hellingman (Dutch director of Project Gutenberg Philippines, the world’s first and biggest provider of free Philippine electronic books); Isaac Donoso, Spanish historian in Manila; Dr. Lloyd Espiritu, former dean of the De La Salle College of Computer Studies; University of the Philippines-based historian Grace Mateo; and Georgina Padilla Zobel of Premio Zobel.Inquirer.net, Rizaliana collection is book printer’s prized treasure--Florentino floro (talk) 10:36, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Birth of Vibal's e-turo.org
[edit]On June 12, 2008, the 110th Philippine Declaration of Independence day, e.turo.org was created by the Vibal Foundation, a nonprofit organization which previously launched Filipiniana.net, and WikiPilipinas.org (a reference guide on the Philippines). Tin Mandigma, editor-in-chief of E-turo.org explained that it is an e-learning portal which "seeks to provide free and quality learning materials online to teachers and students; it gives teachers access to lesson plans and modules based on textbook materials published by Vibal Publishing House, Inc. amid plans to offer Department of Education-approved content from various learning institutions as supplementary teaching materials. One of the most common complaints of teachers is that while the Internet has so much information, most of it cannot be adapted to the local classroom. With this project, we hope to help teachers sort through the clutter and give them quality information that would be useful for their students."abs-cbnnews.com, RP e-learning portal launched on Independence Day--Florentino floro (talk) 07:47, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
