GOODBYE INTEL

I don't know exactly why but strangely, I find myself saddened by the news of Intel's plant closure in Cavite, Philippines. It didn't come to me as a surprise as somehow reliable sources have shared such move with me two years ago. Nevertheless, I find it a great lost to see a company I personally look-up to leave my nation. I feel for the thousands of Filipinos who lost their job because of this move. For some reason, I believe the bond created inside such a "pressure cooker", as we call Intel, cannot easily be broken.

Whilst, I am confident that Intel has a remarkable change and transition programs in place for their affected employees, I still pray for God's grace to be upon these people and their families, especially upon those who have made my short stint in Intel truly worth remembering.
