The anniversary celebration was hosted by OMNI brand endorser, Ryan Agoncillo and Multilingual host Shirley Barrido Chu, while guests were entertained by songs of Richard Poon and a special presentation of renowned shadow playgroup El Gamma Penumbra. Special guests from Cultural Center of the Philippines and University of the Philippines were on hand to express their appreciation for OMNI’s support in helping these CSR partners throughout the years.
In looking back to a 30-year journey in achieving such a milestone, founder Yang Hua Hong expressed his appreciation to everyone who helped OMNI throughout the years. “My heart is filled with gratitude and I am a little bit emotional,” the former Wushu athlete and coach who served in the Philippine Wushu Association for 25 years, said in his speech during the anniversary celebration.
When Mr. Yang established Yatai International Corporation in 1996, the company was affected by the global financial crisis and OMNI was challenged by the more popular and traditional foreign brands. By remaining true to its objective of providing good quality products at reasonable prices, however, OMNI was able to capture its market and became a known and trusted brand in the electrical and lighting industry in the country.
He also acknowledged the benefactors who had helped him during the crucial moments of the company. From them, he learned the principle of helping others. He quoted an old Chinese saying that goes “The fragrance always remains in the hand that gives the rose,”
What keeps Mr. Yang going even in the face of difficulties is his being perfectionist and keen to details by nature. He considers struggles and challenges as stepping stones for further improvement.
Compliant with international standards and use of state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in producing world-class products for the Philippines and the world, the company is bent on creating high quality, energy efficient and environment-friendly electrical and solutions.
