As part of boosting the agency’s credit and
guarantee activities, the Quedan and Rural Credit Guarantee Corporation
(QUEDANCOR) Governing Board chaired by Agriculture Secretary Proceso J. Alcala has recently named a new Officer In Charge-President
(OIC-President) to acclaim stewardship and oversee corporate operations in the
person of Atty. Rodolfo T. Paz, Jr.
A lawyer by profession, Atty. Paz obtained
his Bachelor of Laws degree from San Beda College (SBC) in 1975. It was also at
SBC where he finished his undergraduate course in BSC Accounting.
After passing the Bar examination in 1975,
Atty. Paz started his career in the public sector. Serving first as a Legal
Officer II with the Export Processing Zone Authority in 1976, he was eventually
transferred and assigned as Port Manager of the Navotas Fish Port Complex
(NFPC), the largest fish port in the country and later on appointed as
Operations Manager of the Philippine Fisheries Development Authority (PFDA) for
16 years, from 1986 to 2002.
Buoyed by significant developments in the
operations behind the country’s key fishport complexes under his stead as PFDA operations
head, Atty. Paz was later named as Assistant General Manager of the
organization and eventually as General Manager of the PFDA on February 2011,
prior to him being chosen as QUEDANCOR Officer In Charge-President.
During his stint as PFDA GM, Atty. Paz
introduced policy reforms in promoting transparency in business transactions
and similar dealings of the PFDA. He also initiated involvement of key
stakeholders of the Authority by organizing dialogues among various fishery
groups.
