Former President of the Republic of the Philippines Fidel V. Ramos engaged in a discussion with young leaders from 12 countries in the Asia Pacific region for the second session of “Catalysts of Change: An Open Dialogue with the Legendary Leaders of Asia”. Speaking via videoconference from the GDLN affiliate in Manila, the Asian Institute of Management (AIM), Mr. Ramos fielded questions for over 2 hours with humor, sharing anecdotes and wisdom on issues ranging from empowering young people, resolving insurgencies to the future direction of ASEAN. 

Of the legendary leaders of Asia, Ramos commented, “They have the gratitude of the people because the record shows they were able to reduce poverty, and they are still doing their best to help. This is the attitude that I have taken as well”. “We may be ex-Prime Minister, ex-President ….but we may be more attractive because now we are ex-rated” he joked.

The interview was conducted by World Bank East Asia and Pacific Communications Manager, Peter Stephens, and the session was webcast (view archive here) live.
