2024-01-20

On January 15, 2024, the historic halls of the Philippine National Museum of Natural History were transformed into a stage of harmony, as PFOCN proudly sponsored the Classic in Keys Gala Concert—a prestigious evening that united Singapore and the Philippines through the universal language of music.

 

This cultural milestone was graced by the presence of HyalRoute Group President Ms. Dana Dong, PFOCN Chairman Mr. Hendrick Huang and our leadership teams, alongside distinguished guests, diplomats, and leading figures from both countries. Their presence underscored PFOCN’s conviction that true connectivity extends beyond technology—it is also about fostering cultural ties and shared heritage.

A Night of Musical Excellence

The gala featured an unforgettable performance by renowned Singaporean pianist Mr. Congyu Wang, together with the Manila Symphony Orchestra, one of the Philippines’ most esteemed ensembles. The evening also included celebrated Filipino voices, such as Eric Santos, blending international artistry with local brilliance.

Leadership with a Passion for the Arts

For PFOCN’s Chairman, Mr. Hendrick Huang, the arts are not peripheral, but central to human progress. His personal presence at the gala reflects our company’s ethos: to support endeavors that enrich lives, cultivate creativity, and strengthen cultural understanding.

 

This dedication to the arts aligns seamlessly with PFOCN’s broader mission—to be Emerging Asia’s premier shared fiber optic platform, one that builds not just networks of technology, but also networks of culture, talent, and vision.
