As our country’s lone Gusi Peace Prize laureate representative for this year, Philippine Superstar Miss Nora Aunor is being recognized and awarded for her significant contributions and International Excellence in Performing Arts [for Film, Stage, Television and for Music].
The 2015 Annual Gusi Peace Prize International will be awarded at the Philippine International Convention Center on Wednesday, November 25, 2015. It will be attended by thousands of national and international dignitaries and delegates, who meet up together like an assembly of United Nations, to inspire others to be achievers and peacemakers, promoting world peace, friendship and goodwill, true to the vision of the Gusi Peace Prize International Foundation under the leadership of Chairman Barry Gusi. Indeed, the Philippines as a sovereign country, being Asia’s first republic, with its central location in the Far East, and dubbed as the “Crossroads of the Pacific”, and the “Pearl of the Orient Seas” has become the rendezvous of the East and West; the melting pot, that people from different parts of the globe look forward to visit in order to be part of the international event of the “Gusi Peace Prize”. After all, GUSI stands for Godliness, Unification, Service, and Internationalism.
