HAU wins National Book Award for ninth time

The Holy Angel University has won this year’s National Book Award (Food Category) for “Milk Pigs and Violet Gold: Philippine Cookery,” authored by Singaporean food writer Bryan Koh.

Koh received the award last Saturday night at the awards ceremonies held at the National Museum.

In his acceptance speech, Koh thanked the University’s Center for Kapampangan Studies (CKS) for helping him in his research on Kapampangan dishes and for publishing the Philippine edition of his book.

The Manila Critics Circle (MCC) and the National Book Development Board (NBDB) cited the book’s “handsome three-volume edition” which they described as a “high-definition publishing project.”

“The book’s title immediately presents an unusual take on our country’s cooking, and that is the unique perspective of the entire book,” the MCC and NBDB said in their citation, which was read by literary critic Ruel De Vera. “Singaporean visitor ate our food and saw the extraordinary in our everyday cuisine.”

CKS Director Robby Tantingco and HAU corporate communications consultant Alex Castro accompanied Koh at the ceremonies where they also received a certificate on behalf of the University as publisher of the winning book.

This year’s National Book Award on food writing is the ninth for the University. Previously, it won for the categories of history, translation, biography, professions, science, poetry and non-fiction. The University started publishing books only in 2002 when the Center for Kapampangan Studies was inaugurated.

HAU WELCOMES THAI UNIVERSITY DELEGATION

Three academic officials from Huachiew Chalermprakiet University (HCU) of Thailand visited the University on November 20, 2014 to lay the groundwork for the establishment of an international academic cooperation between the two universities.

The visiting delegation from HCU is composed of Dr. Uraipan Janvanichyanont, vice-president for Academic Affairs, Dr. Somsri Jansom, assistant to the dean, Faculty of Liberal Arts, and Dr. Jonathan Carreon, coordinator for English for Specific Purposes Section.

HCU is the largest Chinese university and one of the top private universities in Thailand. It was founded in 1941 as a nursing and midwifery school by Poh Teck Tung Foundation, itself the biggest Chinese charitable institution in that country which began in 1910.

HCU’s visit to the University is part of its internationalization thrusts and in line with the ASEAN economic integration next year.

HAU Vice-President for Academic Affairs Dr. Jaime Cortez led school administrators in receiving the Thai visitors to the University. In his welcome remarks, Dr. Cortez noted the University’s own internationalization efforts and cited the recent academic cooperative agreements which HAU only recently signed with foreign universities from Korea, Japan, and Australia.

Dr. Janvanichyanont, on the other hand, thanked the University for its hospitality, even as she expressed high hopes for and optimism over the contemplated international linkage.

Other HAU officials who welcomed the Thai guests were Vice-President for External Affairs and Corporate Communications Robert Tantingco, College of Hospitality and Tourism Management Dean Gertrude Tuazon, Academic Research Head Rio Yutuc, Office of International Affairs Head Ronaldo Lapis, and AB Communications Program Chairperson Leslie Manalo.

The HCU officials toured the campus after a round of discussion on the proposed academic cooperation which followed the brief Welcome Program emceed by Ms. Manalo.

Huachiew means Overseas Chinese.
