Jack's Rice: February 2006
http://jacksrice.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 19, 2006. Outsourcing Fair - Manila. Went to the outsourcing fair in last Thursday and Friday. Wow! I never imagined myself to be excited by something like a fair but this was something. There was a palpable buzz in the area, of energy and of promise. Among the speakers were the founder of GoogleTalk, the head of McKinsey Phils and an Indian CEO of an outsourcing firm. Posted by Jack's Rice at 11:29 AM. Friday, February 03, 2006. Its quite official already. 2001 - started a company ....

Friday, November 25, 2005. Outsource World New York. From The Philippine Star:. American companies looking for outsourcing partners in OutsourceWorld New York cited the Philippines’ strong affinity with the Western culture as the country’s distinct advantage in business process outsourcing. The Philippines’ track record and roster of major international companies with operations in the country likewise left a positive impression to American firms participating in OutsourceWorld New York. According to Sen...

Jack's Rice: March 2005
http://jacksrice.blogspot.com/2005_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 17, 2005. In the course of conversations, it is entirely a different thing. There are certain disadvantages in having an uncommon name. When i tell a new acquaintance my name, I might as well have told then it is Krzyzewski (say what? Conversations like the one below have happened numerous times:. Me: Pabili ng isang tall na frapuccino. Starbucks cashier: Whats you're name, sir? Para isulat sa cup). Me: (I mention my name). Me: (I mention my name again). Me: Jack na lang ho. It happens ag...

Monday, February 28, 2005. Encounters with an Oracle. When my girlfriend had to go Singapore for work reasons, I found myself going alone on a long planned trip with a big group that I only met for the first time. I was expecting to be isolated and uncomfortable with the group since I know no one of them. Taga saan ang mga Ibanag? Dito sa may Cagayan area. Taga-saan yun mga may buntot? Not sure I heard it right, I go, Alin, yung mga taga-Bontoc? Sa may Mountain Province naman yun. We were drinking that n...

Jack's Rice: Outsourcing..
http://jacksrice.blogspot.com/2005/11/outsourcing.html
Wednesday, November 09, 2005. Boo Chanco of Philippine Star. Today, perhaps thanks to the initial efforts of Mar and his successor, Cesar Purisima, we have accomplished much in developing outsourcing as a potent domestic job creator. We have done well enough to attract a lot of international attention. But the question is, have we done enough to be competitive in the long term? What more can we do? Available skills and low costs are reasons often cited for the country’s emergence as an offshoring locatio...

Jack's Rice: October 2005
http://jacksrice.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 10, 2005. I was talking to my mother this weekend. She told me that she got to talk to one of our neighbors in the village when they were both walking up the road. Apparently, one of the neighborhood houses got sold. And when the buyer was about to go and live in his purchased home, she found out that it was being rented by a policeman. And this policeman refused to leave the place. "Ayaw umalis.". No one honestly believes that reporting this to the police would result in anything good.

Jack's Rice: my christmas and new year
http://jacksrice.blogspot.com/2006/01/my-christmas-and-new-year.html
Sunday, January 15, 2006. My christmas and new year. One result of this is the nagging thought that I might be slacking, what with doing nothing for about two months. Friends were working, raising families and doing important things while I was there, well, doing nothing. My consolation is the thought that 'going slow' can sometimes be healthy; to take stock of things before proceeding anew. Posted by Jack's Rice at 12:46 PM. Useful information. Go on!
