The German-Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GPCCI), under the patronage of the German Ambassador to the Philippines, H.E. Andreas Pfaffernoschke, successfully held the Mabuhay Germany Ambassador’s Cup recently at Mt. Malarayat Golf and Country Club in Lipa, Batangas.
Since 2003, the golf tournament continues to bring together German-Philippine entrepreneurs, Philippine government leaders, and members of the diplomatic corps for a memorable day of golf and connections.
The tournament drew an enthusiastic field of players all competing across the scenic fairways of Mt. Malarayat. True to its tradition, the MGAC served not only as a competitive sporting event, but as a platform for strengthening the German-Philippine network.
Gracing the Ceremonial Tee-Off were German Embassy, head of administration, Alexander Thielitz, GPCCI board director, Holger Beck, PPI Pazifik Power’s, Jann Altavano, and GPCCI Golf director Klaus Schroeder who all swung the anticipated tournament into action.
