Santos and the Board of Trustees included the young
college students as special members this time to contaminate
their minds to adapt futurism as a national discipline to excel
in the global race for progress.
“It will take quite a while but we are getting there,” said
Santos when asked for an assessment of their effects on the
younger generations. “The Lyceum of the Philippines University
and the Development academy of the Philippines are the first
two institutional members we have. and students from Lyceum
and DAP, U.P., Ateneo, FEU, UST, De La Salle U and Mapua
have been coming to our conferences.”
He added: “Hopefully, this leads to the cultural changes
in our Society so our future generations—and the country—will
rise from the last rungs of the ladder in the global competition
for progress. It is about time we stop degenerating and the
upward climb starts. We will just sustain our efforts even if we
do not see the positive results in our lifetime. Like the pitbull,
we have bitten the enemy and we will never let go til we win.”
