We thank you for being proactive and full-participating citizens, and we look forward to serving our kababayan with your help.

The Eta Chapter of the Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity would like to congratulate our very own, Sister Atty. Norma Singson- De Leon for being elected as National President of the Alpha Phi Omega Philippines Inc. for DY 2021-2023.

Sis Norma is the first woman to be elected to the position. Serving as the Executive Vice President during the previous DY, she has truly embodied the Etan brand of excellence.

In the spirit of leadership, friendship, and service, may we always be!

The Eta Chapter of the Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity grieves the loss of Brother Enrico “Koreeks” Lainez ‘70A, who passed away on 24 February 2021 at the age of 69.

Always one of the brightest minds, Brod Koreeks was licensed to practice law not only in the Philippines, but also in the United States. Such excellence also sent him to a position of leadership in industry, becoming the Vice President for Marketing for RISE Manpower Services.

A man of Leadership, Friendship, and Service through and through, moreover, Brod Koreeks never hesitated to lend the Fraternity his talents. In 1972, he co-organized the Gamma Epsilon Chapter of the Alpha Phi Omega International Collegiate Service Fraternity in De La Salle University.

For many friends, especially to his Alpha Phi Omega brothers and sisters, Brod Koreeks was a leader and true friend in need. He was a key figure who kept the Fraternity strong and growing, wherever he may be. He served as legal adviser to the APO Western Batangas Alumni Association, and went on to serve in the same capacity for the Fraternity nationwide as Presidential Assistant for Special Concerns from 2009 to 2013. He also led the APO Greater Los Angeles (GLA) Alumni Association as their President in 1992. Such contributions made him worthy of the status of Life Member and recipient of the Dr. Librado I. Ureta Award from the APO GLA Alumni Association.

He was a warm and reassuring presence among brothers and sisters everywhere, ever active as a member his entire life, whether in the Philippines, at the UP APO Alumni Association, or in the United States, with the APO-Eta Alumni Association of North America.

Thank you for your life of Service, Brod Koreeks. May we always be.
