The Prince Of P's – William Dar

Above image, in Batangas City 28 October 2019, an Agr-Business Summit was carried out by Pump-Pinasand Batangas Province under Governor Dodo Mandanas, front row, white hair & red shirt; Manong Willie is the man in the middle to the right of Mandanas. 

Partners. Sorry, as with other groups, in its own website, Pump-Pinas mixes Vision with Mission! (pump-pinas.com). Not with Manong Willie who knows that Vision is what you're dreaming of; Mission is your Roadmap to your Vision; and Strategy is how to carry out your Mission.

When he was Director General of the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics, ICRISAT, based in India, ICRISAT's Vision was Poverty Emancipation; its Mission was Partnerships, and its Strategy was Inclusive Market-Oriented Development. "We are all in this together, towards a better society; we are going there using science that is good for the people and the environment." From Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org):

An important development in this (ICRISAT) period was the formation of a wide range of partnerships with non-corporate as well as corporate private sector in India.

The 2020 Vision of PH Agriculture for farmers under Manong Willie is Masaganang Ani, Malaki ang Kita (plenteous harvest, plentiful income – my translation). Beyond rice, this is how I see it:

Manong Willie for all Filipino farmers:
Vision: Productivity & Prosperity.
Mission: Partnerships.
Strategy: Inclusive development.

That is why I call him The Prince of P's.

When you are an active partner, you are included as a recipient of the fruits of development. As active partners, you are truly in a win-win situation all the time.

Whereas previous PH Secretaries of Agriculture had their own areas of focus – on commodity (banana for Senen Bacani, and rice for Roberto S Sebastian, Leonardo Montemayor, Proceso Alcala and Manny Piñol, the last 2 on rice self-sufficiency); marketing (Luis P Lorenzo Jr); and differently, Agriculture and Fisheries Modernization for Edgardo Angara.

William Dar/Manong Willie is, I see it now, The Prince of P's –
Partnerships for Productivity & Prosperity in PH Agriculture.

This is a partnership between the Public and Private Sectors – and the partners are the peasants, public officials, private business owners, private groups, philanthropists. Not necessarily in that order. In fact, there is no order to partnership, because all partners have to be able to work together simultaneously, because the total relationship is holistic:

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

He is the 45th Secretary of Agriculture of the Philippines, appointed to the position by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte on Monday, 05 August 2019. He had been Secretary of Agriculture under President Joseph "Erap" Estrada from 1998 to 1999, prior to his appointment as DG of ICRISAT. Under him, Agriculture grew by 9.6%, the highest in PH history!

From Manong Willie (19 August 2019, PIA, pia.gov.ph):

Upon my assumption as Acting Secretary of Agriculture, we conducted a series of meetings with the private sector, particularly the leaders of various agribusiness industries, engaging them once again as our major partners in modernizing and industrializing Philippine agriculture.

To the partners, to make much of time!@517
