We are living in an extraordinary time. It is also a moment when the work we are doing is at its most vital.
Resilience and hard work built the INQUIRER.net website. Throughout the 23 years, we have experienced and mastered many challenges. We are convinced that globally, as long as we work together and support each other, we will overcome this pandemic too. Each and everyone should have the earnest desire to survive in order to thrive.
Inherent to our mission, INQUIRER.net has the important responsibility and commitment more than ever to break relevant news and analyses to help us assess the situation and act on it. Our purpose and values are very valuable in moments like this for our readers, partners, advertisers and the communities we serve. This is our way of contributing to nation building.
INQUIRER.net has a rich heritage that has played a critical role in Philippine politics, lifestyle, business, sports and world view. As a company, we weathered good times and bad, challenges and successes and learned from them. As we celebrate another anniversary, we take this opportunity to thank the men and women of INQUIRER.net, our loyal readers, advertisers, partners, even our critics and the rest of the Filipino community.
We are grateful for the trust you have placed in us and we’ll continue to work harder and better to deserve it.
