I was browsing the internet and ran into your site with a mention of a person by the name Erna Ferrer(she was supposed to pick up someone at the airport in Lapu-Lapu City). I met a lady from Cebu with the same name in the early 90’s from my participation of YMCA’s Rizal Youth Leadership [Training] Institute. If she is the same person, kindly give her my name and my email address. Thank you very much. If she is not, it would also be very nice to know that. Again, I sincerely appreciate it."

DePedro: 3rd RYLTI
"A defining moment in DePedro's troubled youth came when he was selected one of the scholars, 3rd YMCA Rizal Youth Leadership Training Institute, the summer of 1965, Baguio City.
"from a rebel without a cause, DePedro undertook studies on the life, work and writings of our foremost hero, and the great men of our history."

Eye Opener on Success Stories by Frony Fortich
"I am particularly interested about Alaska, because many years ago, as a young student, I was a scholar representing Rafael Palma College at a month-long leadership training, the YMCA Rizal Youth Leadership Training Institute in Baguio City together with Fiscal Adriano Montes. In the institute where 100 scholars [were] in attendance, they were the so-called cream of the crop. There are now many famous personalities who were graduates of the leadership course.
One of the few women I knew was Elsa Malapit, a young lass from Ilocos Norte. I was attracted to her, so I readily courted here. But after the Institute due to the lack of communications, there were no mobile phones or Internet then, I lost contact with her, although I knew that upon graduation from a teachers' course she was teaching in Tinejeros, Malabon.
Of all surprises, I was surprised one day while trying to find out where she went after her teaching stint in Malabon I found out that she is now a big fish in the state of Alaska. Here are some excerpts about this outstanding woman. I thought she would ignore me already but when I e-mailed her we refreshed out memories and she heartily replied to my emails. But then I lost my email address to some people, who stole it and that is the end of story.
Here are some excerpts of this famous woman:
In the tradition of the grand roundtable of the Spanish Knights, Elsa Malapit Sargento was inducted into the 2004 Asian Academy Hall of Fame at a ceremony in New Mexico. Elsa is the first Alaskan woman and the first Filipino-American in the state to ever receive this honor.
In Albuquerque, New Mexico this week, Elsa Malapit Sargento, the State's Executive Director of the Alaska State Community Service Commission, stood among seven other recipients selected from across the world to become the newest inductee into the Asian Academy Hall of Fame. The annual ceremony takes place during the Conference of Asian Leaders Association.
"I was trembling with delight to stand among those I have revered for so many years," said Elsa. "In a moment of reflection, I wondered how I got there and my conclusion was - because of my passion for inspiring young people to make a difference in this world."
The Asian Academy Hall of Fame was created to shine the light on outstanding Asians so that they may serve as role models for all the young people of the world. The goal is to bring very diverse Asian American communities together and pay tribute to those who have made a substantial difference to their culture and society. Elsa is a retired school teacher of 33 years who now dedicates her life to helping others across Alaska to join in the spirit of volunteerism and community service. Governor Murkowski appointed her as the Executive Director of the Alaska State Community Service Commission (ASCSC) in 2002. She is also a founding board member of Bridge Builders of Anchorage."

"I wonder what has happened to the scholars of the 10th YCMA Rizal Youth Leadership Training Institute.
A yearly training of the YMCA of the Philippines, it aims to inculcate among youth leaders the ideals and aspirations of Rizal and the other heroes. The 10th was held from May 22 to June 20, 1972 (that's right, I perfectly remember) in Cagayan de Oro City.
I remember Nick Tabigo-on, our group facilitator, Ely Galang, the delegates from all over the Philippines whose names escape me, but whose faces are etched in my memory. Some were radicals, particularly those from Mindanao, some moderates, some poets, all campus leaders/personalities.
This was one among the last gatherings of student leaders where everyone felt free to say whatever he/she had in mind. I was a naive, promdi guy who shied away from discussions, but I wrote well and my workbook was in fact chosen by then Senator Emmanuel Pelaez as the best. He offered me a job in his office, which I refused, to my great regret later.
It was an awakening for me, that month-long interlude from school, reading and writing about Rizal, discussing our ideas for the future of the nation. It was the divine spark, so to speak, that kindled my yearning to make a difference for my country, although subsequent events made it difficult to be on the right track. A few months later, Marcos declared martial law, and the bright ideas of youth were crushed by the rule of iron."

Welcome fellow RYLTI Alumni
After much Googling and searching the web re YMCA Rizal Youth Leadership Training Institute alumni [specifically the 13th RYLTI], I've found some YouTube links, a couple of blogs and a Facebook RYLTI Graduates' group.
I've decided to make, yet again; a blog - not so much about the RYLTI itself, but for the most part the experiences and personalites of those young men and women who attended the RYLTI.
If you are one of those "lucky" and privileged" ones - Welcome and hope you meet your batchmates here!
If you're on Facebook, see the link here. And don't think you're too old to do Facebook either!
